4
5 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
8 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
9 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
10
11 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
12 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
13 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
14
15 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
16 compilation flags.
17 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
18
19 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
20 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
21 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
22
23 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
24 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
25
26 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
27 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
28 server.
29
30 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
31 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
32 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
33 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
34
35 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
36 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
37 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
38 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
39
40 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
41 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
42 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
43
44 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
45 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
46 [Steve Henson]
47
48 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
49
50 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
51 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
52
53 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
54 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
55
56 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
57 effect.
58
59 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
60
61 [Steve Henson]
62
63 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
64 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
65 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
66 algorithms and include tests cases.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
69 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
70 enveloped data.
71 [Steve Henson]
72
73 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
74 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
78 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
79
80 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
81 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
82 [Steve Henson]
83
84 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
85 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
86 failures.
87 [Steve Henson]
88
89 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
90 sign or verify all in one operation.
91 [Steve Henson]
92
93 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
94 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
95 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
96 [Steve Henson]
97
98 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
99 [Steve Henson]
100
101 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
102 [Steve Henson]
103
104 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
105 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
106 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
107 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
108 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
109 [Steve Henson]
110
111 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
112 based on NID.
113 [Steve Henson]
114
115 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
116 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
117 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
120 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
121 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
122 [Steve Henson]
123
124 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
125 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
126
127 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
128 POST to handle HMAC cases.
129 [Steve Henson]
130
131 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
132 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
133 [Steve Henson]
134
135 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
136 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
137 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
138 [Steve Henson]
139
140 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
141 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
142 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
143 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
144 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
145 requested amount of entropy.
146 [Steve Henson]
147
148 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
149 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
150 [Steve Henson]
151
152 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
153 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
154 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
155 support.
156 [Steve Henson]
157
158 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
159 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
160 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
161 [Steve Henson]
162
163 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
164 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
165 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
166 will never use XTS mode.
167 [Steve Henson]
168
169 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
170 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
171 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
172 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
173 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
174 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
175 [Steve Henson]
176
177 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
178 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
179 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
180 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
181 [Steve Henson]
182
183 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
184 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
185 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
189 [Steve Henson]
190
191 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
192 [Steve Henson]
193
194 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
195 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
196 [Steve Henson]
197
198 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
199 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
200 [Steve Henson]
201
202 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
203 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
204 [Steve Henson]
205
206 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
207 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
208 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
209 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
210 and rename any affected symbols.
211 [Steve Henson]
212
213 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
214 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
215 [Steve Henson]
216
217 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
218 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
219 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
220 [Steve Henson]
221
222 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
223 [Steve Henson]
224
225 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
226 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
227 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
228 [Steve Henson]
229
230 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
231 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
232 [Steve Henson]
233
234 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
235 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
236 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
237 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
238 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
239 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
240 set before the key.
241 [Steve Henson]
242
243 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
244 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
245 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
246 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
247 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
248 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
249 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
250 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
251 [Steve Henson]
252
253 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
254 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
255 [Steve Henson]
256
257 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
258
259 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
260 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
261
262 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
263 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
264 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
265 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
266 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
267 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
268
269 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
270 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
271 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
272 security.
273 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
274
275 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
276 parameters by name.
277 [Steve Henson]
278
279 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
280 Add CMAC pkey methods.
281 [Steve Henson]
282
283 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
284 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
285 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
286 [Steve Henson]
287
288 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
289 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
290 multi-process servers.
291 [Steve Henson]
292
293 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
294 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
295 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
296 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
297 RAND_METHOD structure.
298 [Steve Henson]
299
300 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
301 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
302 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
303 whose return value is often ignored.
304 [Steve Henson]
305
306 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
307
308 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
309 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
310 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
311 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
312 announced in the initial ServerHello.
313 [Emilia Käsper]
314
315 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
316 (other platforms pending).
317 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
318
319 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
320 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
321 [Rob Stradling]
322
323 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
324 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
325 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
326 [Bodo Moeller]
327
328 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
329 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
330 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
331 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
332 [Andy Polyakov]
333
334 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
335 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
336
337 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
338 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
339 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
340 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
341 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
342
343 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
344 [Andy Polyakov]
345
346 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
347 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
348 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
349 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
350
351 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
352 RSAZ.
353 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
354
355 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
356 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
357 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
358 for TLS encrypt.
359
360 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
361 [Andy Polyakov]
362
363 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
364 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
365 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
366 [Steve Henson]
367
368 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
369 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
370 [Steve Henson]
371
372 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
373 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
374 [Steve Henson]
375
376 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
377 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
378 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
379 algorithms and include tests cases.
380 [Steve Henson]
381
382 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
383 structure.
384 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
385
386 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
387 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
388 [Steve Henson]
389
390 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
391 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
392 summary of the connection parameters.
393 [Steve Henson]
394
395 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
396 of connection parameters.
397 [Steve Henson]
398
399 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
400 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
401
402 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
403 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
404 [Steve Henson]
405
406 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
407 [Steve Henson]
408
409 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
410 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
411 [Steve Henson]
412
413 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
414 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
415 [Steve Henson]
416
417 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
418 certificates.
419 [Steve Henson]
420
421 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
422 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
423 CRLs using the OCSP API.
424 [Steve Henson]
425
426 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
427 [Steve Henson]
428
429 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
430 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
431 [Steve Henson]
432
433 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
434 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
435 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
436 tracing.
437 [Steve Henson]
438
439 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
440 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
441 [Steve Henson]
442
443 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
444 OID NID.
445 [Steve Henson]
446
447 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
448 client to OpenSSL.
449 [Steve Henson]
450
451 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
452 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
453 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
454 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
455 [Steve Henson]
456
457 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
458 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
459 [Steve Henson]
460
461 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
462 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
463 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
464 comparison.
465 [Steve Henson]
466
467 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
468 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
469 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
470 use the certificate.
471 [Steve Henson]
472
473 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
474 [Steve Henson]
475
476 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
477 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
478 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
479 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
480 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
481 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
482 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
483
484 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
485 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
486
487 [Steve Henson]
488
489 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
490 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
491 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
492 [Steve Henson]
493
494 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
495 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
496 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
497 supported signature algorithms.
498 [Steve Henson]
499
500 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
501 [Steve Henson]
502
503 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
504 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
505 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
506 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
507 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
508 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
509 certificate and specify the whole chain.
510 [Steve Henson]
511
512 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
513 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
514 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
515 to have similar checks in it.
516
517 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
518 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
519 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
520 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
521 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
522 [Steve Henson]
523
524 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
525 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
526 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
527 shared signature algorithms.
528 [Steve Henson]
529
530 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
531 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
532 to support them.
533 [Steve Henson]
534
535 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
536 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
537 it couldn't be removed.
538 [Steve Henson]
539
540 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
541 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
542 [Steve Henson]
543
544 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
545 functions. Add manual page.
546 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
547
548 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
549 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
550 a certificate.
551 [Steve Henson]
552
553 *) Fix OCSP checking.
554 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
555
556 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
557 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
558 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
559 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
560 utility) or reject.
561 [Steve Henson]
562
563 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
564 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
565 [Steve Henson]
566
567 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
568 platform support for Linux and Android.
569 [Andy Polyakov]
570
571 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
572 [Andy Polyakov]
573
574 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
575 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
576 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
577 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
578 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
579 [Steve Henson]
580
581 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
582 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
583 the new parameter format automatically.
584 [Steve Henson]
585
586 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
587 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
588 [Steve Henson]
589
590 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
591 [Steve Henson]
592
593 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
594 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
595 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
596 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
597 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
598 [Steve Henson]
599
600 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
601 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
602 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
603 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
604 to set list of supported curves.
605 [Steve Henson]
606
607 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
608 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
609 to print out received values.
610 [Steve Henson]
611
612 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
613 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
614 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
615 [Steve Henson]
616
617 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
618 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
619 [Steve Henson]
620
621 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
622 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
623 [Steve Henson]
624
625 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
626 certificates.
627 [Steve Henson]
628
629 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
630 the certificate.
631 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
632 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
633 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
634
635 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [xx XXX xxxx]
636
637 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
638 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
639 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
640 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
641 announced in the initial ServerHello.
642 [Emilia Käsper]
643
644 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
645
646 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
647
648 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
649 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
650 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
651 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
652 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
653 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
654 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
655
656 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
657 (CVE-2014-3513)
658 [OpenSSL team]
659
660 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
661
662 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
663 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
664 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
665 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
666 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
667 attack.
668 (CVE-2014-3567)
669 [Steve Henson]
670
671 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
672
673 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
674 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
675 configured to send them.
676 (CVE-2014-3568)
677 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
678
679 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
680 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
681 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
682 (CVE-2014-3566)
683 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
684
685 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
686
687 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
688 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
689 DigestInfo structures.
690
691 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
692
693 [Steve Henson]
694
695 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
696
697 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
698 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
699 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
700
701 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
702 Group for discovering this issue.
703 (CVE-2014-3512)
704 [Steve Henson]
705
706 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
707 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
708 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
709 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
710 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
711
712 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
713 researching this issue.
714 (CVE-2014-3511)
715 [David Benjamin]
716
717 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
718 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
719 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
720 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
721
722 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
723 issue.
724 (CVE-2014-3510)
725 [Emilia Käsper]
726
727 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
728 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
729 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
730 (CVE-2014-3507)
731 [Adam Langley]
732
733 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
734 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
735 Denial of Service attack.
736 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
737 (CVE-2014-3506)
738 [Adam Langley]
739
740 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
741 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
742 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
743 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
744 this issue.
745 (CVE-2014-3505)
746 [Adam Langley]
747
748 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
749 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
750 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
751
752 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
753 issue.
754 (CVE-2014-3509)
755 [Gabor Tyukasz]
756
757 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
758 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
759 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
760 Denial of Service attack.
761
762 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
763 discovering and researching this issue.
764 (CVE-2014-5139)
765 [Steve Henson]
766
767 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
768 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
769 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
770 output to the attacker.
771
772 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
773 (CVE-2014-3508)
774 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
775
776 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
777 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
778 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
779 [Bodo Moeller]
780
781 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
782
783 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
784 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
785 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
786
787 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
788 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
789 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
790
791 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
792 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
793 in a DoS attack.
794
795 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
796 (CVE-2014-0221)
797 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
798
799 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
800 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
801 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
802 code on a vulnerable client or server.
803
804 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
805 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
806
807 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
808 are subject to a denial of service attack.
809
810 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
811 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
812 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
813
814 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
815 compilation flags.
816 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
817
818 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
819 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
820 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
821
822 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
823 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
824
825 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
826
827 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
828 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
829 server.
830
831 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
832 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
833 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
834 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
835
836 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
837 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
838 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
839 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
840
841 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
842 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
843 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
844
845 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
846
847 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
848 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
849 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
850 is at least 512 bytes long.
851
852 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
853
854 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
855
856 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
857 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
858 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
859 (CVE-2013-4353)
860
861 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
862 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
863 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
864 [Steve Henson]
865
866 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
867 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
868 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
869 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
870 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
871 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
872 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
873
874 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
875
876 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
877 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
878 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
879
880 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
881
882 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
883
884 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
885 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
886 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
887
888 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
889 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
890 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
891 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
892 (CVE-2013-0169)
893 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
894
895 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
896 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
897 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
898 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
899 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
900 (CVE-2012-2686)
901 [Adam Langley]
902
903 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
904 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
905 [Steve Henson]
906
907 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
908 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
909
910 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
911 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
912 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
913 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
914 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
915
916 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
917 [Steve Henson]
918
919 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
920 if renegotiating.
921 [Steve Henson]
922
923 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
924
925 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
926 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
927
928 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
929 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
930 (CVE-2012-2333)
931 [Steve Henson]
932
933 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
934 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
935 [Steve Henson]
936
937 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
938 approved.
939 [Steve Henson]
940
941 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
942
943 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
944 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
945 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
946 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
947 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
948 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
949 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
950 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
951 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
952 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
953 [Steve Henson]
954
955 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
956 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
957 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
958 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
959 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
960 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
961 client side.
962 [Andy Polyakov]
963
964 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
965
966 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
967 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
968 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
969
970 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
971 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
972 (CVE-2012-2110)
973 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
974
975 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
976 [Adam Langley]
977
978 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
979 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
980
981 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
982 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
983 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
984 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
985 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
986 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
987 Most broken servers should now work.
988 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
989 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
990 [Steve Henson]
991
992 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
993 [Andy Polyakov]
994
995 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
996
997 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
998 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
999 [Steve Henson]
1000
1001 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1002 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1003 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1004 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1005 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1006 [Steve Henson]
1007
1008 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1009 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1010 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
1011 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1012 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1013 [Steve Henson]
1014
1015 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1016 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1017
1018 *) Add support for SCTP.
1019 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1020
1021 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1022 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1023
1024 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1025
1026 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1027 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1028 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1029 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1030 - s390x: z196 support;
1031 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1032
1033 [Andy Polyakov]
1034
1035 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1036 (removal of unnecessary code)
1037 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1038
1039 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1040 [Eric Rescorla]
1041
1042 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1043 [Eric Rescorla]
1044
1045 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1046 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1047 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1048 by Google.
1049 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1050
1051 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1052 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1053 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1054 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1055 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1056
1057 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1058 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1059 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1060
1061 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1062 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1063 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1064
1065 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1066 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1067 implementations).
1068 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1069
1070 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1071 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1072 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1073 [Steve Henson]
1074
1075 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1076 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1077 particular PSS.
1078 [Steve Henson]
1079
1080 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1081 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1082 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1083 [Steve Henson]
1084
1085 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1086 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1087 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1088 the appropriate parameters.
1089 [Steve Henson]
1090
1091 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1092 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1093 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1094 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
1095 against a number of sample certificates.
1096 [Steve Henson]
1097
1098 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
1099 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
1100
1101 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
1102 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
1103
1104 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
1105 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
1106 parameters r, s.
1107 [Steve Henson]
1108
1109 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
1110 RFC3211.
1111 [Steve Henson]
1112
1113 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
1114 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
1115 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
1116 password based CMS).
1117 [Steve Henson]
1118
1119 *) Session-handling fixes:
1120 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
1121 but also support Session Tickets.
1122 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
1123 presented a ticket with an expired session.
1124 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
1125 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
1126 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
1127 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1128
1129 *) Fix PSK session representation.
1130 [Bodo Moeller]
1131
1132 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
1133
1134 This work was sponsored by Intel.
1135 [Andy Polyakov]
1136
1137 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
1138 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
1139 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
1140 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
1141 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
1142 [Steve Henson]
1143
1144 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
1145 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
1146 [Steve Henson]
1147
1148 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
1149 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
1150 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
1151 [Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
1154 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
1155 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
1156 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
1157 [Steve Henson]
1158
1159 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
1160 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
1161 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
1162 [Steve Henson]
1163
1164 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
1165 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
1166
1167 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
1168 [Steve Henson]
1169
1170 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
1171 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
1172 [Steve Henson]
1173
1174 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1175 [Steve Henson]
1176
1177 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
1178 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
1179 [Steve Henson]
1180
1181 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
1182 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1183 [Steve Henson]
1184
1185 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1186 [Steve Henson]
1187
1188 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1189 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1190 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1191 [Steve Henson]
1192
1193 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1194 [Steve Henson]
1195
1196 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1197 [Steve Henson]
1198
1199 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1200 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1201 [Steve Henson]
1202
1203 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1204 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1205 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1206 [Steve Henson]
1207
1208 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1209 [Steve Henson]
1210
1211 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1212 and enable MD5.
1213 [Steve Henson]
1214
1215 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1216 FIPS modules versions.
1217 [Steve Henson]
1218
1219 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1220 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1221 until after the certificate request message is received.
1222 [Steve Henson]
1223
1224 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1225 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1226 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1227 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1228 [Steve Henson]
1229
1230 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1231 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1232 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1233 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1234 [Steve Henson]
1235
1236 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1237 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1238 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1239 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1240 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1241 and version checking.
1242 [Steve Henson]
1243
1244 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1245 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1246 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1247 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1248 [Steve Henson]
1249
1250 *) Add SRP support.
1251 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1252
1253 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1254 [Steve Henson]
1255
1256 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1257 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1258 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1259
1260 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1261 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1262 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1263 [Steve Henson]
1264
1265 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1266 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1267
1268 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1269 a few changes are required:
1270
1271 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1272 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1273 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1274 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1275 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1276 [Steve Henson]
1277
1278 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
1279
1280 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1281
1282 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1283 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1284 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1285
1286 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1287 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1288 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1289 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1290 (CVE-2013-0169)
1291 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1294 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1295 [Steve Henson]
1296
1297 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1298 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1299 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1300 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1301 (This is a backport)
1302 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1303
1304 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1305 [Steve Henson]
1306
1307 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
1308
1309 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
1310 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
1311
1312 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
1313 to fix DoS attack.
1314
1315 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1316 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1317 (CVE-2012-2333)
1318 [Steve Henson]
1319
1320 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1321 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1322 [Steve Henson]
1323
1324 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
1325
1326 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1327 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1328 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1329
1330 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1331 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1332 (CVE-2012-2110)
1333 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1334
1335 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1336
1337 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1338 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1339 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1340 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1341 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1342 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1343 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1344 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1345 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1346 [Steve Henson]
1347
1348 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1349 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1350 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1351 [Steve Henson]
1352
1353 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1354
1355 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1356 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1357 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1358 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1359 [Antonio Martin]
1360
1361 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1362
1363 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1364 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1365 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1366 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1367 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1368 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1369 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1370 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1371 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1372 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1373 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1374 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1375 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1376
1377 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1378 (CVE-2011-4576)
1379 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1380
1381 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1382 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1383 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1384 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1385
1386 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1387 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1388
1389 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1390 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1391 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1392 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1393
1394 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1395 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1396
1397 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1398 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1399
1400 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1401 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1402
1403 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1404 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1405 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1406
1407 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1408 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1409 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1410
1411 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1412 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1413 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1414 the last update always remained unused).
1415 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1416
1417 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1418 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1419
1420 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1421
1422 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1423 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1424 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1425
1426 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1427 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1428 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1429
1430 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1431 [Bodo Moeller]
1432
1433 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1434 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1435 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1436 [Steve Henson]
1437
1438 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1439 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1440
1441 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1442
1443 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1444
1445 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1446
1447 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1448 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1449
1450 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1451 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1452 ambiguous.
1453 [Steve Henson]
1454
1455 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1456
1457 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1458 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1459 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1460 [Steve Henson]
1461
1462 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1463 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1464 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1465 [Ben Laurie]
1466
1467 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1468
1469 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1470 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1471 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1472 [Steve Henson]
1473
1474 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1475 a DLL.
1476 [Steve Henson]
1477
1478 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1479
1480 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1481 (CVE-2010-1633)
1482 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1483
1484 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1485
1486 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1487 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1488 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1489 [Steve Henson]
1490
1491 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1492 [Steve Henson]
1493
1494 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1495 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1496 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1497
1498 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1499 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1500 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1501 [Steve Henson]
1502
1503 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1504 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1505 [Steve Henson]
1506
1507 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1508 some responders need this.
1509 [Steve Henson]
1510
1511 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1512 correctly.
1513 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1514
1515 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1516 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1517 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1518 [Steve Henson]
1519
1520 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1521 [Steve Henson]
1522
1523 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1524 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1525 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1526 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1527 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1528 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1529 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1530 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1531 [Steve Henson]
1532
1533 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1534 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1535 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1536 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1537
1538 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1539 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1540
1541 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1542 be used on C++.
1543 [Steve Henson]
1544
1545 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1546 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1547 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1548 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1549 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1550 attempting to work them out.
1551 [Steve Henson]
1552
1553 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1554 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1555 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1556 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1557 [Steve Henson]
1558
1559 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1560 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1561 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1562 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1563 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1564 [Steve Henson]
1565
1566 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1567 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1568 you can do:
1569
1570 openssl sha256 foo
1571
1572 as well as:
1573
1574 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1575
1576 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1577
1578 [Steve Henson]
1579
1580 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1581 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1582
1583 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1584 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1585
1586 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1587 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1588 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1589 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1590 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1591 [Steve Henson]
1592
1593 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1594 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1595 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1596 [Steve Henson]
1597
1598 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1599 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1600 [Steve Henson]
1601
1602 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1603 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1604
1605 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1606 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1607 [Steve Henson]
1608
1609 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1610 [Ben Laurie]
1611
1612 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1613 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1614 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1615 CONF_VALUE.
1616 [Ben Laurie]
1617
1618 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1619 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1620 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1621 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1622 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1623 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1624 [Steve Henson]
1625
1626 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1627 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1628
1629 This work was sponsored by Google.
1630 [Steve Henson]
1631
1632 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1633 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1634 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1635 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1636 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1637 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1638 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1639 default.
1640
1641 This work was sponsored by Google.
1642 [Steve Henson]
1643
1644 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1645
1646 This work was sponsored by Google.
1647 [Steve Henson]
1648
1649 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1650 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1651 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1652 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1653
1654 This work was sponsored by Google.
1655 [Steve Henson]
1656
1657 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1658 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1659 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1660 CRL functionality in future.
1661
1662 This work was sponsored by Google.
1663 [Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1666
1667 This work was sponsored by Google.
1668 [Steve Henson]
1669
1670 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1671 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1672
1673 This work was sponsored by Google.
1674 [Steve Henson]
1675
1676 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1677 and URI types are currently supported.
1678
1679 This work was sponsored by Google.
1680 [Steve Henson]
1681
1682 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1683 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1684 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1685 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1686 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1687 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1688 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1689 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1690
1691 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1692 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1693 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1694
1695 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1696 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1697 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1698 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1699
1700 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1701 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1702 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1703 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1704 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1705 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1706 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1707 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1708 of &errno.)
1709 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1710
1711 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1712 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1713 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1714
1715 This work was sponsored by Google.
1716 [Steve Henson]
1717
1718 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1719 [Ben Laurie]
1720
1721 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1722 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1723 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1724 [Ben Laurie]
1725
1726 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1727 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1728 [Nick Mathewson]
1729
1730 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1731 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1732 [Ben Laurie]
1733
1734 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1735 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1736 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1737 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1738 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1739 content types and variants.
1740 [Steve Henson]
1741
1742 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1743 [Steve Henson]
1744
1745 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1746 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1747 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1748 files from the associated perl scripts.
1749 [Steve Henson]
1750
1751 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1752 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1753 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1754
1755 *) s390x assembler pack.
1756 [Andy Polyakov]
1757
1758 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1759 "family."
1760 [Andy Polyakov]
1761
1762 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1763 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1764 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1765 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1766 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1767 to use. For example, specify an option
1768
1769 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1770
1771 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1772 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1773 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1774 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1775 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1776 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1777
1778 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1779 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1780 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1781 return non-zero for success.
1782
1783 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1784 by using
1785
1786 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1787 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1788
1789 where
1790
1791 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1792 void *arg;
1793
1794 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1795 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1796 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1797 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1798 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1799 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1800 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1801 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1802 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1803
1804 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1805 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1806 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1807 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1808 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1809 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1810
1811 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1812 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1813 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1814 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1815 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1816 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1817
1818 [Bodo Moeller]
1819
1820 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1821 MAC.
1822
1823 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1824
1825 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1826 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1827 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1828 supported.
1829
1830 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1831 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1832 SSL_SESSION.
1833
1834 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1835 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1836 with no application modification.
1837
1838 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1839 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1840
1841 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1842 or server extensions to be examined.
1843
1844 This work was sponsored by Google.
1845 [Steve Henson]
1846
1847 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1848 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1849 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1850
1851 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1852 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1853 ciphersuite support.
1854 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1855
1856 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1857 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1858 to output in BER and PEM format.
1859 [Steve Henson]
1860
1861 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1862 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1863 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1864 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1865 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1866 [Steve Henson]
1867
1868 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1869 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1870 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1871 utility.
1872 [Steve Henson]
1873
1874 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1875 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1876 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1877 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1878 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1879 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1880 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1881 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1882 enabled again.
1883
1884 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1885 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1886 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1887 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1888
1889 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1890 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1891 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1892 the default order.
1893 [Bodo Moeller]
1894
1895 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1896 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1897 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1898 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1899 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1900 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1901 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1902 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1903 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1904
1905 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1906 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1907 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1908 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1909 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1910 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1911 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1912 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1913 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1914 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1915 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1916 kinds of kludges.
1917
1918 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1919 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1920 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1921
1922 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1923 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1924 "CAMELLIA256".
1925 [Bodo Moeller]
1926
1927 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1928 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1929 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1930 [Nils Larsch]
1931
1932 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1933 it yet and it is largely untested.
1934 [Steve Henson]
1935
1936 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1937 [Nils Larsch]
1938
1939 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1940 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1941 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1942 [Steve Henson]
1943
1944 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1945 [Andy Polyakov]
1946
1947 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1948 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1949 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1950 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
1953 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1954 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1955 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1956 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1957 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1961 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1962 [Cryptocom]
1963
1964 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1965 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1966 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1967 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1968 [Steve Henson]
1969
1970 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1971 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1972 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1973 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1974 [Steve Henson]
1975
1976 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1977 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1978 [Steve Henson]
1979
1980 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1981 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1982 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1983 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1984 [Steve Henson]
1985
1986 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1987 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1988 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1989 [Steve Henson]
1990
1991 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1992 utility.
1993 [Steve Henson]
1994
1995 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1996 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1997 [Steve Henson]
1998
1999 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2000 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2001 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2002 if necessary.
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
2005 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2006 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2007 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2008 [Steve Henson]
2009
2010 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2011 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2012 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2013 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2014 [Steve Henson]
2015
2016 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2017 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2018 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2019 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2020 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2021 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2022 [Douglas Stebila]
2023
2024 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2025 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2026 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2027 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2028 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2029
2030 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2031 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2032 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2033 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2034 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2035 protocol).
2036
2037 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2038 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2039 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2040 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2041
2042 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2043 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2044 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2045 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2046 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2047
2048 aECDH - ECDH cert
2049 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2050 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2051
2052 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2053 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2054
2055 [Bodo Moeller]
2056
2057 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2058 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2059 [Steve Henson]
2060
2061 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2062 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2063 [Steve Henson]
2064
2065 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2066 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2067 functional reference processing.
2068 [Steve Henson]
2069
2070 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2071 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2072 process.
2073 [Steve Henson]
2074
2075 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2076 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2077 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2078 [Steve Henson]
2079
2080 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2081 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2082 application to support multiple signers.
2083 [Steve Henson]
2084
2085 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2086 digest MAC.
2087 [Steve Henson]
2088
2089 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2090 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2091 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2092 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2093 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2094 [Steve Henson]
2095
2096 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2097 new API.
2098 [Steve Henson]
2099
2100 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2101 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2102 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2103 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2104 a no op.
2105 [Steve Henson]
2106
2107 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2108 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2109 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2110 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
2111 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2112 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2113 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2114 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2115 [Steve Henson]
2116
2117 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2118 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2119 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2120 between digests and public key types.
2121 [Steve Henson]
2122
2123 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2124 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2125 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2126 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2127 [Steve Henson]
2128
2129 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2130 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2131 key ASN1 method.
2132 [Steve Henson]
2133
2134 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2135 [Steve Henson]
2136
2137 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2138 pkeyutl.
2139 [Steve Henson]
2140
2141 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2142 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2143 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2144 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2145 pkey, genpkey.
2146 [Steve Henson]
2147
2148 *) BeOS support.
2149 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2150
2151 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
2152 manual pages.
2153 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2154
2155 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
2156 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
2157 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
2158 functionality for RSA.
2159 [Steve Henson]
2160
2161 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
2162 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
2163 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
2164 [Steve Henson]
2165
2166 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
2167 key API, doesn't do much yet.
2168 [Steve Henson]
2169
2170 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
2171 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
2172 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
2173 [Steve Henson]
2174
2175 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
2176 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2177 [Douglas Stebila]
2178
2179 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
2180 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
2181 [Steve Henson]
2182
2183 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2184 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2185 type.
2186 [Steve Henson]
2187
2188 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2189 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2190 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2191 structure.
2192 [Steve Henson]
2193
2194 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2195 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2196 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2197 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2198 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2199 of public and private key structures.
2200 [Steve Henson]
2201
2202 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2203 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2204 [Douglas Stebila]
2205
2206 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2207 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2208 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2209
2210 New ciphersuites:
2211 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2212 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2213
2214 New functions:
2215 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
2216 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
2217 SSL_get_psk_identity
2218 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
2219
2220 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2221
2222 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2223 and response verification functionality.
2224 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2225
2226 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2227 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2228 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2229 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2230 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2231 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2232 server_name extension.
2233
2234 New functions (subject to change):
2235
2236 SSL_get_servername()
2237 SSL_get_servername_type()
2238 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2239
2240 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2241
2242 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2243 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2244 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2245 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2246 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2247
2248 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2249
2250 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2251 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2252 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2253 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2254 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
2255 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2256 option.
2257
2258 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2259
2260 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2261 [Andy Polyakov]
2262
2263 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2264 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2265 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2266 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2267 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2268 [Andy Polyakov]
2269
2270 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2271 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2272 macro.
2273 [Bodo Moeller]
2274
2275 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2276 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2277 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2278 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2279 [Andy Polyakov]
2280
2281 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2282 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2283 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2284 using the maximum available value.
2285 [Steve Henson]
2286
2287 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2288 in addition to the text details.
2289 [Bodo Moeller]
2290
2291 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2292 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2293 handle several customised structures at all.
2294 [Steve Henson]
2295
2296 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2297 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2298 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2299 [Steve Henson]
2300
2301 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2302 [Steve Henson]
2303
2304 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2305 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2306 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2307 [Steve Henson]
2308
2309 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2310 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2311 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2312 [Nils Larsch]
2313
2314 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2315 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2316 all fields.
2317 [Steve Henson]
2318
2319 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2320 [Steve Henson]
2321
2322 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2323 [NTT]
2324
2325 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
2326
2327 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2328
2329 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2330 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2331 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2332
2333 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2334 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2335 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2336 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2337 (CVE-2013-0169)
2338 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2339
2340 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2341 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2342 [Steve Henson]
2343
2344 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2345 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2346 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2347 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2348 (This is a backport)
2349 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2350
2351 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2352 [Steve Henson]
2353
2354 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2355
2356 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2357 to fix DoS attack.
2358
2359 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2360 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2361 (CVE-2012-2333)
2362 [Steve Henson]
2363
2364 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2365 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2366 [Steve Henson]
2367
2368 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2369
2370 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2371 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2372 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2373 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2374 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2375
2376 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2377
2378 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2379 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2380 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2381
2382 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2383 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2384 (CVE-2012-2110)
2385 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2386
2387 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2388
2389 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2390 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2391 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2392 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2393 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2394 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2395 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2396 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2397 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2398 [Steve Henson]
2399
2400 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2401 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2402 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2403 [Steve Henson]
2404
2405 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
2406
2407 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2408 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2409 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2410 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2411 [Antonio Martin]
2412
2413 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
2414
2415 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2416 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2417 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2418 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2419 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2420 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2421 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2422 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2423 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2424 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2425 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2426 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2427 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2428
2429 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
2430 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
2431
2432 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2433 (CVE-2011-4576)
2434 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2435
2436 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2437 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2438 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2439 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2440
2441 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2442 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2443 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2444 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2445
2446 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2447 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2448
2449 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2450 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2451
2452 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2453 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2454 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2455
2456 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2457 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2458 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2459
2460 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2461 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2462 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2463 the last update always remained unused).
2464 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2465
2466 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2467 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
2468 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2469
2470 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2471 [Bodo Moeller]
2472
2473 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2474 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2475
2476 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2477
2478 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2479
2480 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
2481
2482 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2483 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2484
2485 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2486 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2487 ambiguous.
2488 [Steve Henson]
2489
2490 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
2491
2492 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2493 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2494 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2495 [Steve Henson]
2496
2497 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2498 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2499 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2500 [Ben Laurie]
2501
2502 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
2503
2504 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2505 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2506 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2507 [Steve Henson]
2508
2509 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2510 [Steve Henson]
2511
2512 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
2513 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2514 some broken encodings work correctly.
2515 [Steve Henson]
2516
2517 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2518 is also one of the inputs.
2519 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2520
2521 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2522 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2523 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2524 etc are non-op.
2525 [Steve Henson]
2526
2527 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2528
2529 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2530 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
2531
2532 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2533 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2534 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2535
2536 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2537 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2538 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2539 [Steve Henson]
2540
2541 *) VMS fixes:
2542 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2543 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2544 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2545 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2546
2547 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2548
2549 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2550 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2551 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2552 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2553 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2554 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2555 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2556 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2557
2558 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2559 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2560 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2561
2562 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2563
2564 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2565 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2566
2567 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2568 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2569 [Bodo Moeller]
2570
2571 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2572 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2573 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2574 [Steve Henson]
2575
2576 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2577 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2578 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2579 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2580 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2581 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2582 [Steve Henson]
2583
2584 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2585 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2586 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2587 [Steve Henson]
2588
2589 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2590 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2591 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2592 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2593 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2594 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2595 CVE-2009-4355.
2596 [Steve Henson]
2597
2598 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2599 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2600 [Bodo Moeller]
2601
2602 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2603 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2604 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2605 [Steve Henson]
2606
2607 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2608 [Steve Henson]
2609
2610 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2611 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2612 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2613 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2614 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2615 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2616 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2617 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2618 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2619 [Steve Henson]
2620
2621 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2622 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2623 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2624 [Steve Henson]
2625
2626 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2627 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2628 [Steve Henson]
2629
2630 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2631 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2632 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2633 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2634 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2635 know what you are doing.
2636 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2637
2638 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2639 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2640 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2641 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2642 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2643 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2644 the handshake.
2645 [Steve Henson]
2646
2647 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2648 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2649 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2650 correctly.
2651 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2652
2653 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2654 warnings in other configurations.
2655 [Steve Henson]
2656
2657 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2658 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2659 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2660 systems need.
2661 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2662
2663 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2664 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2665 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2666
2667 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2668 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2669 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2670 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2671 [Steve Henson]
2672
2673 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2674 and restored.
2675 [Steve Henson]
2676
2677 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2678 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2679 clash.
2680 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2681
2682 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2683 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2684 other than a simple chain.
2685 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2686
2687 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2688 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2689 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2690 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2691 [Steve Henson]
2692
2693 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2694 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2695 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2696 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2697 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2698 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2699 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2700 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2701 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2702
2703 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2704 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2705 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2706 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2707 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
2708 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2709 (CVE-2009-1377)
2710 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2711
2712 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2713 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2714 [Daniel Mentz]
2715
2716 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2717 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2718
2719 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2720 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2721
2722 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2723
2724 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2725 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2726 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2727 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2728 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2729 you're doing.
2730 [Ben Laurie]
2731
2732 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2733
2734 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2735 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2736 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2737 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2738
2739 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2740 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2741 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2742 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2743
2744 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2745 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2746 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2747 [Steve Henson]
2748
2749 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2750 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2751 level.
2752 [Steve Henson]
2753
2754 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2755 to handle some structures.
2756 [Steve Henson]
2757
2758 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2759 for a '\n'
2760 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2761
2762 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2763 [Matthieu Herrb]
2764
2765 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2766 [Steve Henson]
2767
2768 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2769 [Steve Henson]
2770
2771 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2772 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2773 chosen compiler.
2774 [Ben Laurie]
2775
2776 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2777
2778 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2779 (CVE-2008-5077).
2780 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2781
2782 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2783 [Ben Laurie]
2784
2785 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2786 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2787 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2788 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2789
2790 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2791 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2792
2793 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2794 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2795 [Bodo Moeller]
2796
2797 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2798 s_client and s_server.
2799 [Ben Laurie]
2800
2801 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2802 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2803
2804 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2805 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2806
2807 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2808 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2809 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2810 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2811 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2812 [Bodo Moeller]
2813
2814 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2815
2816 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2817 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2818 [PR #1679]
2819
2820 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2821 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2822 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2823
2824 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2825 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2826 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2827 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2828
2829 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2830 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2831
2832 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2833
2834 *) Various precautionary measures:
2835
2836 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2837
2838 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2839 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2840 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2841
2842 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2843 outside the expected range.
2844
2845 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2846 builds.
2847
2848 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2849
2850 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2851 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2852 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2853
2854 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2855 [Steve Henson]
2856
2857 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2858 [Huang Ying]
2859
2860 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2861
2862 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2863 [Steve Henson]
2864
2865 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2866 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2867 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2868
2869 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2870 [Steve Henson]
2871
2872 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2873 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2874 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2875 files.
2876 [Steve Henson]
2877
2878 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2879
2880 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2881 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2882 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2883 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2884
2885 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2886 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2887 [Joe Orton]
2888
2889 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2890
2891 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2892 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2893 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2894
2895 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2896
2897 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2898 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2899 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2900 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2901 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2902
2903 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2904 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2905 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2906 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2907 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2908 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2909 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2910
2911 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2912
2913 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2914 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2915 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2916 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2917 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2918
2919 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2920 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2921
2922 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2923 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2924 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2925 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2926 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2927
2928 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2929
2930 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2931 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2932 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2933 sets may exist with different names.
2934 [Steve Henson]
2935
2936 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2937 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2938 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2939 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2940 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2941 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2942 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2943 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2944 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2945 implementation.
2946 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2947
2948 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2949 implemention in the following ways:
2950
2951 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2952 hard coded.
2953
2954 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2955 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2956 ignored for embedded content.
2957
2958 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2959 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2960 [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2963 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2964 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2965 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2966
2967 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2968 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2969 [Steve Henson]
2970
2971 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2972 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2973 [Steve Henson]
2974
2975 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2976 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2977 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2978 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2979 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2980 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2981 data.
2982 [Steve Henson]
2983
2984 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2985 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2986 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2987
2988 *) Netware support:
2989
2990 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2991 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2992 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2993 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2994 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2995 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2996 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2997 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2998 platform
2999 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3000 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3001 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3002 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3003 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3004 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3005 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3006
3007 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3008 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3009 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3010 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3011 to s_client and s_server.
3012 [Steve Henson]
3013
3014 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3015
3016 *) Fix various bugs:
3017 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3018 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3019 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3020 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3021 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3022
3023 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3024
3025 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3026 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3027 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3028 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3029 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3030 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3031 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3032 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3033 [Andy Polyakov]
3034
3035 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3036 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3037 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3038 Steve Henson]
3039
3040 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3041 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3042 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3043 supported.
3044
3045 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3046 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3047 SSL_SESSION.
3048
3049 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3050 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3051 with no application modification.
3052
3053 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3054 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3055
3056 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3057 or server extensions to be examined.
3058
3059 This work was sponsored by Google.
3060 [Steve Henson]
3061
3062 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3063 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3064 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3065 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3066 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3067 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3068 server_name extension.
3069
3070 New functions (subject to change):
3071
3072 SSL_get_servername()
3073 SSL_get_servername_type()
3074 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3075
3076 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3077
3078 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3079 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3080 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3081 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3082 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3083
3084 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3085
3086 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3087 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3088 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3089 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3090 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
3091 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3092 option.
3093
3094 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3095
3096 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3097 [Steve Henson]
3098
3099 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3100 [Andy Polyakov]
3101
3102 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3103 (which previously caused an internal error).
3104 [Bodo Moeller]
3105
3106 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3107 [Ben Laurie]
3108
3109 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3110 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3111
3112 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3113 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3114 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3115
3116 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3117 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3118 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3119 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3120
3121 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3122 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3123 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3124 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3125
3126 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3127 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3128 information. For detailed background information, see
3129 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3130 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3131 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3132 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3133 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3134 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3135 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3136 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3137 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3138 remove a conditional branch.
3139
3140 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3141 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3142 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3143 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3144 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3145 remains as a deprecated alias.
3146
3147 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3148 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3149 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3150 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3151
3152 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3153 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3154 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3155 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3156 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3157 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3158 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3159 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3160
3161 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3162
3163 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3164 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3165 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3166 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3167 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3168 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3169 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3170 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3171 in a different context.
3172 [Bodo Moeller]
3173
3174 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3175 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3176 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3177 [Bodo Moeller]
3178
3179 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3180 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3181 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3182
3183 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3184
3185 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3186 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3187 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3188 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3189 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3190 [Victor Duchovni]
3191
3192 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3193 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3194 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3195 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3196 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3197 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3198 [Bodo Moeller]
3199
3200 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3201 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3202 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3203 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3204 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3205 [Bodo Moeller]
3206
3207 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3208 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3209
3210 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3211 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3212 Improve header file function name parsing.
3213 [Steve Henson]
3214
3215 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3216 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3217 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3218
3219 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3220
3221 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3222 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3223 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3224
3225 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3226 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3227
3228 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3229 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3230
3231 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3232 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3233 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3234
3235 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3236 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3237 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3238 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3239 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3240 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3241 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3242 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3243 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3244
3245 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3246 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3247 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3248 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3249 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3250
3251 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3252 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3253 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3254 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3255 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3256 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3257 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3258 multiple values to extend the available space.
3259
3260 [Bodo Moeller]
3261
3262 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3263
3264 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3265 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3266
3267 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3268 [Ben Laurie]
3269
3270 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3271 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3272 undesirable limitations.
3273 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3274
3275 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3276 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3277 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3278 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3279 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3280 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3281 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3282 [Bodo Moeller]
3283
3284 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3285
3286 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3287 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3288 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3289
3290 The latter two were purportedly from
3291 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3292 appear there.
3293
3294 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3295 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3296 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3297 [Bodo Moeller]
3298
3299 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3300 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3301 [Bodo Moeller]
3302
3303 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3304 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3305 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3306 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3307
3308 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3309 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3310 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3311 [NTT]
3312
3313 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3314 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3315 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3316 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3317 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3318 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3319 [Steve Henson]
3320
3321 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3322
3323 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3324 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3325 [Steve Henson]
3326
3327 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3328 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3329
3330 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3331 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3332 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3333 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3334 [Douglas Stebila]
3335
3336 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3337 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3338 [Steve Henson]
3339
3340 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3341 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3342 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3343 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3344 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3345 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3346 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3347 can't be loaded.
3348 [Steve Henson]
3349
3350 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3351 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3352 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3353 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3354 [Steve Henson]
3355
3356 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3357 under VC++ build system.
3358 [Steve Henson]
3359
3360 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3361 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3362 [Richard Levitte]
3363
3364 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3365
3366 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3367 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3368 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3369 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3370 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3371
3372 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3373 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3374 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3375
3376 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3377 [Steve Henson]
3378
3379 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3380 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3381 [Nils Larsch]
3382
3383 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3384 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3385
3386 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3387 [Nick Mathewson]
3388
3389 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3390 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3391
3392 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3393 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3394 [Steve Henson]
3395
3396 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3397 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3398 smime utility.
3399 [Steve Henson]
3400
3401 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3402
3403 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3404 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3405
3406 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3407 [Richard Levitte]
3408
3409 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3410 key into the same file any more.
3411 [Richard Levitte]
3412
3413 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3414 [Andy Polyakov]
3415
3416 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3417 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3418
3419 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3420 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3421 [Richard Levitte]
3422
3423 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3424 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3425 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3426 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3427 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3428 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3429
3430 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3431 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3432 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3433 [Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3436 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3437 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3438 - add new function for parameter creation
3439 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3440 BN_BLINDING parameters
3441 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3442 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3443 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3444 threads.
3445 [Nils Larsch]
3446
3447 *) Add support for DTLS.
3448 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3449
3450 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3451 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3452 [Walter Goulet]
3453
3454 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
3455 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3456 [Nils Larsch]
3457
3458 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3459 the apps/openssl applications.
3460 [Nils Larsch]
3461
3462 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3463 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3464 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3465 [Ben Laurie]
3466
3467 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3468 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3469
3470 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3471 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3472
3473 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3474 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3475 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3476 avoid this algorithm.)
3477
3478 [Bodo Moeller]
3479
3480 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3481 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3482 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3483 [Richard Levitte]
3484
3485 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3486 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3487 [Andy Polyakov]
3488
3489 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3490 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3491 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3492 pod file:
3493
3494 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3495
3496 The blank line is mandatory.
3497
3498 [Steve Henson]
3499
3500 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3501 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3502 sources.
3503 [Steve Henson]
3504
3505 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3506 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3507
3508 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3509 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3510 to support policy checking and print out.
3511 [Steve Henson]
3512
3513 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3514 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3515 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3516 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3517
3518 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3519 [Geoff Thorpe]
3520
3521 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3522 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3523
3524 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3525 implementation contributed by IBM.
3526 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3527
3528 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3529 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3530 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3531 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3532
3533 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3534 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3535
3536 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3537 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3538 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3539 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3540 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3541 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3542 [Steve Henson]
3543
3544 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3545 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3546 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3547 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3548 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3549 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3550 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3551 [Geoff Thorpe]
3552
3553 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3554 [Steve Henson]
3555
3556 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3557 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3558 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3559 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3560 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3561 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3562 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3563 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3564 [Steve Henson]
3565
3566 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3567 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3568 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3569 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3570 [Steve Henson]
3571
3572 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3573 syntax:
3574
3575 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3576 [Steve Henson]
3577
3578 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3579 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3580 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3581 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3582 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3583 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3584 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3585 [Geoff Thorpe]
3586
3587 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3588 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3589 [Geoff Thorpe]
3590
3591 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3592 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3593 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3594 [Steve Henson]
3595
3596 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3597 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3598 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3599 below).
3600 [Geoff Thorpe]
3601
3602 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3603 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3604 [Richard Levitte]
3605
3606 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3607 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3608 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3609 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3610 [Geoff Thorpe]
3611
3612 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3613 initialised value as BN_new().
3614 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3615
3616 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3617 [Steve Henson]
3618
3619 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3620 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3621 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3622 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3623 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3624 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3625 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3626 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3627 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3628 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3629 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3630 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3631 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3632 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3633 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3634
3635 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3636 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3637 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3638 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3639 [Geoff Thorpe]
3640
3641 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3642 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3643 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3644 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3645 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3646 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3647 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3648 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3649 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3650 [Geoff Thorpe]
3651
3652 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3653 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3654 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3655 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3656 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3657 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3658 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3659 [Geoff Thorpe]
3660
3661 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3662 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3663 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3664 these have been updated also.
3665 [Geoff Thorpe]
3666
3667 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3668 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3669 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3670 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3671 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3672 functions.
3673 [Steve Henson]
3674
3675 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3676 structure of type "other".
3677 [Steve Henson]
3678
3679 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3680 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3681 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3682 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3683 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3684 situation in the script.
3685 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3686
3687 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3688 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3689 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3690 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3691 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3692 used as premaster secret.
3693 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3694
3695 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3696 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3697 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3698
3699 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3700 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3701
3702 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3703 control of the error stack.
3704 [Richard Levitte]
3705
3706 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3707 [Richard Levitte]
3708
3709 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3710 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3711 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3712 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3713 [Richard Levitte]
3714
3715 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3716 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3717 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3718 [Richard Levitte]
3719
3720 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3721 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3722 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3723 a memory area.
3724 [Richard Levitte]
3725
3726 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3727 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3728 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3729 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3730 [Richard Levitte]
3731
3732 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3733 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3734 the following flags are defined:
3735
3736 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3737 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3738 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3739 number.
3740
3741 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3742 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3743 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3744 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3745 returns zero.
3746 [Richard Levitte]
3747
3748 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3749 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3750 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3751 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3752 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3753 [Richard Levitte]
3754
3755 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3756 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3757 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3758 [Richard Levitte]
3759
3760 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3761 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3762 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3763 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3764 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3765 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3766 [Richard Levitte]
3767
3768 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3769 req and dirName.
3770 [Steve Henson]
3771
3772 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3773 [Steve Henson]
3774
3775 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3776 [Steve Henson]
3777
3778 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3779 [Steve Henson]
3780
3781 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3782 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3783 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3784 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3785 default implementation more easily.
3786 [Geoff Thorpe]
3787
3788 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3789 in config files.
3790 [Steve Henson]
3791
3792 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3793 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3794 [Richard Levitte]
3795
3796 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3797 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3798 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3799 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3800
3801 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3802 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3803 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3804 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3805 [Steve Henson]
3806
3807 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3808 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3809 to do it.
3810 [Richard Levitte]
3811
3812 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3813 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3814 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3815 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3816 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3817 scalar * generator).
3818 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3819
3820 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3821 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3822 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3823 correctly.
3824 [Steve Henson]
3825
3826 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3827 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3828 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3829 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3830 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3831 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3832 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3833 linker additions, eg;
3834 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3835 [Geoff Thorpe]
3836
3837 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3838 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3839 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3840 [Geoff Thorpe]
3841
3842 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3843 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3844 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3845 via PR#459)
3846 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3847
3848 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3849 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3850 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3851 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3852 [Geoff Thorpe]
3853
3854 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3855 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3856 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3857 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3858 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3859 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3860 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3861 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3862 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3863 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3864
3865 Example for using the new callback interface:
3866
3867 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3868 void *my_arg = ...;
3869 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3870
3871 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3872
3873 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3874 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3875 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3876 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3877 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3878 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3879 */
3880
3881 [Geoff Thorpe]
3882
3883 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3884 available to TLS with the number defined in
3885 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3886 [Richard Levitte]
3887
3888 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3889 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3890
3891 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3892 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3893 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3894 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3895
3896 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3897 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3898
3899 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3900 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3901 well.
3902 [Richard Levitte]
3903
3904 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3905 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3906 [Richard Levitte]
3907
3908 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3909 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3910 and a macro that behave like
3911 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3912
3913 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3914 [Nils Larsch]
3915
3916 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3917 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3918 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3919 if applicable.
3920 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3921
3922 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3923 [Bodo Moeller]
3924
3925 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3926 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3927 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3928 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3929 directory engines/.
3930 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3931 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3932 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3933 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3934 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3935 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3936 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3937 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3938
3939 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3940 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
3941 [Richard Levitte]
3942
3943 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3944 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3945
3946 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3947 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3948 files while avoiding the low level API.
3949
3950 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3951 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3952 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3953 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3954
3955 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3956 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3957 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3958 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3959 instead of the low level API.
3960 [Steve Henson]
3961
3962 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3963 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3964 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3965 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3966 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3967 PKCS#7 code.
3968
3969 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3970 down to the template encoder.
3971 [Steve Henson]
3972
3973 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3974 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3975 [Bodo Moeller]
3976
3977 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3978 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3979 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3980 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3981
3982 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3983 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3984
3985 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3986 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3987
3988 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3989 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3990 [Bodo Moeller]
3991
3992 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3993 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3994 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3995 [Bodo Moeller]
3996
3997 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3998 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3999
4000 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4001 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4002
4003 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4004 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4005 New EC_METHOD:
4006
4007 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4008
4009 New API functions:
4010
4011 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4012 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4013 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4014 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4015 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4016 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4017
4018 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4019 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4020 enable it).
4021
4022 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4023 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4024 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4025 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4026 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4027 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4028 various internal method names.)
4029
4030 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4031 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4032
4033 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4034 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4035
4036 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4037 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4038
4039 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4040 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4041 methods are undefined.
4042
4043 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4044 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4045
4046 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4047 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4048 length of the modulus.
4049
4050 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4051 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4052
4053 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4054 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4055
4056 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4057 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4058
4059 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4060 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4061 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4062
4063 BN_GF2m_add
4064 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4065 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4066 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4067 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4068 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4069 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4070 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4071 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4072 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4073
4074 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4075 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4076
4077 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4078 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4079 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4080 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4081 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4082 where
4083 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4084 This applies to the following functions:
4085
4086 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4087 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4088 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4089 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4090 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4091 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4092 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4093 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4094 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4095 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4096
4097 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4098
4099 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4100 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4101
4102 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4103
4104 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4105 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4106 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4107 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4108 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4109
4110 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4111 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4112
4113 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4114 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4115 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4116
4117 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4118 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4119
4120 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4121 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4122 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4123 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4124 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4125
4126 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4127 functions
4128 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4129 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4130 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4131 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4132 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4133 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4134 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4135 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4136 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4137 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4138 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4139 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4140
4141 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4142 functions
4143 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4144 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4145 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4146 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4147 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4148
4149 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4150 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4151 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4152 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4153
4154 *) Add functions
4155 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4156 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4157 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4158 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4159 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4160 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4161 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4162
4163 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4164 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4165 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4166 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4167 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4168 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4169 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4170 adding different types of curves.
4171 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4172
4173 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4174 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4175 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4176 [Bodo Moeller]
4177
4178 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4179 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4180
4181 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4182 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4183 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4184 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4185
4186 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4187
4188 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4189 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4190
4191 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4192 library. Most notably,
4193 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4194 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4195 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4196 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4197 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4198 extracted before the specific public key;
4199 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4200 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4201
4202 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4203 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4204 function
4205 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4206 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4207 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4208 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4209 accessed via
4210 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4211 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4212 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4213
4214 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4215 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4216 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4217 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4218 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4219 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4220 differing sizes.
4221 [Richard Levitte]
4222
4223 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4224
4225 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4226 sensitive data.
4227 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4228
4229 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4230 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4231 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4232 [Bodo Moeller]
4233
4234 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4235 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4236 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4237 [Victor Duchovni]
4238
4239 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4240 [Steve Henson]
4241
4242 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4243 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4244 [Steve Henson]
4245
4246 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4247 run algorithm test programs.
4248 [Steve Henson]
4249
4250 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4251 [Steve Henson]
4252
4253 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4254 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4255 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4256 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4257 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4258 [Bodo Moeller]
4259
4260 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4261 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4262 [Steve Henson]
4263
4264 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4265
4266 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4267 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4268 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4269
4270 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4271 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4272
4273 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4274 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4275
4276 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4277 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4278 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4279
4280 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4281 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4282 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4283 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4284 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4285 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4286 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4287 [Bodo Moeller]
4288
4289 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4290
4291 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4292 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4293
4294 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4295 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4296 undesirable limitations.
4297 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4298
4299 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4300
4301 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4302 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4303 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4304
4305 The latter two were purportedly from
4306 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4307 appear there.
4308
4309 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4310 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4311 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4312 [Bodo Moeller]
4313
4314 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4315 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4316 [Bodo Moeller]
4317
4318 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4319
4320 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4321 module in FIPS mode.
4322 [Steve Henson]
4323
4324 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4325 [Steve Henson]
4326
4327 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4328 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4329 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4330 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4331 [Steve Henson]
4332
4333 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4334
4335 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4336 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4337 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4338 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4339 the difference induced by this change.
4340 [Andy Polyakov]
4341
4342 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4343
4344 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4345 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4346 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4347 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4348 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4349
4350 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4351 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4352 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4353
4354 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4355 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4356 [Steve Henson]
4357
4358 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4359 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4360 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4361 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4362 biased k.)
4363 [Bodo Moeller]
4364
4365 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4366 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4367 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4368 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4369 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4370
4371 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4372 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4373 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4374 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4375 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4376 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4377
4378 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4379
4380 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4381 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4382 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4383 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4384 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4385 [Bodo Moeller]
4386
4387 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4388 clients need.
4389 [Steve Henson]
4390
4391 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4392 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4393 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4394 [Steve Henson]
4395
4396 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4397 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4398 structures constant.
4399 [Steve Henson]
4400
4401 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4402
4403 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4404 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4405
4406 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4407 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4408 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4409 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4410 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4411 some needed definitions.
4412 [Steve Henson]
4413
4414 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4415 [Ulf Möller]
4416
4417 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4418 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4419 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4420 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4421 [Richard Levitte]
4422
4423 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4424
4425 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4426 server and client random values. Previously
4427 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4428 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4429
4430 This change has negligible security impact because:
4431
4432 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4433 data.
4434
4435 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4436 handshake.
4437
4438 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4439 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4440 values.
4441
4442 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4443 to our attention.
4444
4445 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4446
4447 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4448 [Ulf Möller]
4449
4450 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4451 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4452 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4453
4454 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4455 [Steve Henson]
4456
4457 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4458 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4459 [Andy Polyakov]
4460
4461 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4462 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4463 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4464
4465 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4466 [Steve Henson]
4467
4468 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4469 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4470 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4471 certificates.
4472 [Steve Henson]
4473
4474 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4475 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4476 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4477 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4478
4479 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4480 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4481 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4482 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4483 been given)
4484 [Richard Levitte]
4485
4486 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4487
4488 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4489 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4490 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4491 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4492 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4493 [Steve Henson]
4494
4495 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4496 [Steve Henson]
4497
4498 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4499 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4500
4501 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4502 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4503 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4504 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4505 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4506 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4507 rather than being initialized to 1.
4508 [Steve Henson]
4509
4510 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4511
4512 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4513 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4514 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4515
4516 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4517 (CVE-2004-0112)
4518 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4519
4520 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4521 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4522 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4523 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4524 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4525 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4526 [Richard Levitte]
4527
4528 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4529 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4530 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4531 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4532 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4533 for these cases.
4534 [Steve Henson]
4535
4536 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4537 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4538 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4539 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4540 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4541 [Steve Henson]
4542
4543 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4544 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4545 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4546 < 0.9.7.
4547 [Steve Henson]
4548
4549 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4550 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4551
4552 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4553 [Steve Henson]
4554
4555 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4556
4557 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4558
4559 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4560 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4561
4562 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4563
4564 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4565 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4566
4567 [Steve Henson]
4568
4569 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4570 exiting on the first error in a request.
4571 [Steve Henson]
4572
4573 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4574 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4575 specifications.
4576 [Steve Henson]
4577
4578 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4579 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4580 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4581 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4582
4583 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4584 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4585 [Richard Levitte]
4586
4587 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4588 blocks during encryption.
4589 [Richard Levitte]
4590
4591 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4592 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4593 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4594 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4595 certain size.
4596 [Steve Henson]
4597
4598 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4599 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4600 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4601 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4602 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4603 parser.
4604 [Steve Henson]
4605
4606 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4607
4608 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4609 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4610 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4611 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4612 [Bodo Moeller]
4613
4614 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4615 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4616 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4617 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4618 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4619
4620 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4621 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4622 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4623 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4624 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4625 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4626 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4627 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4628 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4629 [Bodo Moeller]
4630
4631 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4632 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4633 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4634 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4635 [Geoff Thorpe]
4636
4637 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4638 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4639 [Ulf Moeller]
4640
4641 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4642
4643 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4644 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
4645 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4646 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4647 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4648
4649 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4650 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4651 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4652
4653 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4654 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4655 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4656 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4657 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4658
4659 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4660 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4661 used by default when no-err is given.
4662 [Richard Levitte]
4663
4664 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4665 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4666
4667 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4668 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4669 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4670 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4671 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4672
4673 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4674 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4675 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4676 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4677
4678 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4679
4680 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4681
4682 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4683
4684 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4685 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4686 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4687 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4688 root is omitted).
4689 [Steve Henson]
4690
4691 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4692 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4693
4694 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4695 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4696 [Steve Henson]
4697
4698 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4699 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4700 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4701 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4702 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4703
4704 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4705 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4706 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4707 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4708 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4709 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4710 followup to PR #377.
4711 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4712
4713 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4714 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4715 [Andy Polyakov]
4716
4717 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4718 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4719 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4720 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4721
4722 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4723
4724 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4725 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4726
4727 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4728 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4729 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4730 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4731 client and server.
4732 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4733 PR #377.
4734 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4735
4736 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4737 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4738 removed entirely.
4739 [Richard Levitte]
4740
4741 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4742 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4743 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4744 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4745 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4746 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4747 of libcrypto.
4748 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4749 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4750 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4751 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4752 have to be made anyway).
4753 [Richard Levitte]
4754
4755 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4756 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4757 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4758 [Steve Henson]
4759
4760 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4761 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4762 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4763 [Richard Levitte]
4764
4765 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4766 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4767 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4768
4769 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4770 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4771 edit numbers of the version.
4772 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4773
4774 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4775 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4776 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4777
4778 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4779 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4780
4781 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4782 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4783 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4784
4785 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4786 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4787
4788 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4789 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4790
4791 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4792 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4793
4794 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4795 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4796
4797 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4798 overflows.
4799 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4800
4801 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4802 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4803 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4804
4805 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4806 representations in a platform independent manner.
4807 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4808
4809 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4810 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4811 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4812
4813 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4814 indents.
4815 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4816
4817 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4818 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4819
4820 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4821 full. Fixed.
4822 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4823
4824 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4825 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4826 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4827
4828 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4829 unconditionally).
4830 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4831
4832 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4833 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4834
4835 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4836 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4837
4838 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4839 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4840
4841 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4842 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4843
4844 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4845 CBCParameter.
4846 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4847
4848 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4849 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4850
4851 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4852 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4853
4854 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4855 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4856 exploitable.
4857 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4858
4859 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4860 the 0.9.6 release series:
4861
4862 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4863 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4864 (CVE-2002-0657)
4865 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4866
4867 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4868 [Richard Levitte]
4869
4870 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4871 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4872
4873 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4874 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4875
4876 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4877 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4878 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4879 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4880
4881 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4882 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4883 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4884
4885 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4886 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4887 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4888 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4889
4890 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4891 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4892 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4893 some local tweaks:
4894
4895 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4896 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4897 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4898 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4899 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4900 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4901 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4902 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4903 done
4904
4905 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4906 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4907 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4908 [Richard Levitte]
4909
4910 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4911 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4912 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4913 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4914 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4915
4916 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4917 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4918
4919 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4920 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4921 [Richard Levitte]
4922
4923 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4924 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4925 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4926 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4927 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4928 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4929 [Steve Henson]
4930
4931 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4932 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4933 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4934 [Steve Henson]
4935
4936 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4937 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4938 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4939
4940 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4941 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4942 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4943 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4944 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4945 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4946 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4947 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4948
4949 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4950 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4951 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4952 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4953 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4954 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4955 [Steve Henson]
4956
4957 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4958 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4959 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4960 declaration has been changed from
4961 int (*cb)()
4962 into
4963 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4964 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4965 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4966 has been changed into
4967 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4968
4969 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4970 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4971 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4972
4973 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4974 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4975
4976 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4977 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4978 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4979 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4980 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4981 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4982 always load it have also been added.
4983 [Steve Henson]
4984
4985 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4986 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4987 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4988
4989 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4990
4991 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4992 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4993 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4994
4995 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4996 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4997 command line option can be used to specify an
4998 alternative file.
4999 [Steve Henson]
5000
5001 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5002 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5003 [Steve Henson]
5004
5005 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5006 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5007 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5008 [Steve Henson]
5009
5010 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5011 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5012 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5013 to work with the new engine framework.
5014 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5015
5016 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5017 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5018 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5019 to work with the new engine framework.
5020 [Richard Levitte]
5021
5022 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5023 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5024 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5025
5026 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5027 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5028
5029 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5030 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5031 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5032 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5033 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5034 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5035
5036 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5037 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5038
5039 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5040 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5041
5042 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5043 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5044 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5045 [Ben Laurie]
5046
5047 *) Add new functions
5048 ERR_peek_last_error
5049 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5050 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5051 These are similar to
5052 ERR_peek_error
5053 ERR_peek_error_line
5054 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5055 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5056 still in the error queue.
5057 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5058
5059 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5060 like:
5061 default_algorithms = ALL
5062 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5063 [Steve Henson]
5064
5065 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
5066 [Steve Henson]
5067
5068 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5069 [Steve Henson]
5070
5071 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5072 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5073 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5074 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5075
5076 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5077 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5078
5079 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5080 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5081
5082 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5083 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5084 [Bodo Moeller]
5085
5086 *) New functions/macros
5087
5088 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5089 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5090 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5091 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5092
5093 to request calling a callback function
5094
5095 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5096 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5097
5098 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5099 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5100 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5101 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5102 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5103 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5104 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5105 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5106 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5107 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5108
5109 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5110 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5111 [Bodo Moeller]
5112
5113 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5114 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5115 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5116 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5117 the configuration scripts.
5118
5119 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5120 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5121 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5122
5123 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5124 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5125
5126 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5127 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5128 when reusing an existing buffer.
5129 [Bodo Moeller]
5130
5131 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5132 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5133 [Steve Henson]
5134
5135 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5136 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5137 [Ben Laurie]
5138
5139 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5140 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5141 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5142 has the same effect.
5143 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5144
5145 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5146 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5147 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5148 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5149 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5150 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5151 exception.
5152
5153 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5154 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5155 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5156 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5157
5158 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5159 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5160 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5161 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5162
5163 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5164 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5165 won't work.
5166
5167 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5168 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5169 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5170 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5171 default), and then completely removed.
5172 [Richard Levitte]
5173
5174 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5175 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5176 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5177 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5178 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5179 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5180 particular extension is supported.
5181 [Steve Henson]
5182
5183 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5184 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5185 [Steve Henson]
5186
5187 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5188 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5189 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5190 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5191 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5192 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5193 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5194 requires the destination to be valid.
5195
5196 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5197 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5198 [Steve Henson]
5199
5200 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5201 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5202 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5203 [Bodo Moeller]
5204
5205 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5206 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5207
5208 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5209 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5210 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5211 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5212 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5213 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5214 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5215 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5216 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5217 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5218 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5219 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5220 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5221 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5222 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5223 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5224 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5225 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5226 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5227 the new code.
5228 [Geoff Thorpe]
5229
5230 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5231 [Steve Henson]
5232
5233 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5234 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5235 become part of libeay.num as well.
5236 [Richard Levitte]
5237
5238 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5239 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5240 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
5241 false once a handshake has been completed.
5242 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5243 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5244 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5245 client has followed the request.)
5246 [Bodo Moeller]
5247
5248 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5249 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5250 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5251 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5252
5253 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5254 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5255 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5256 [Bodo Moeller]
5257
5258 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5259 [Steve Henson]
5260
5261 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5262 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5263 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5264 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5265
5266 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5267 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5268 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5269
5270 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5271 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5272 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5273 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5274 [Geoff Thorpe]
5275
5276 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5277 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5278 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5279 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5280 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5281 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5282 [Geoff Thorpe]
5283
5284 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5285 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5286 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5287 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5288 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5289 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5290 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5291 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5292 [Geoff Thorpe]
5293
5294 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5295 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5296 [Geoff Thorpe]
5297
5298 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5299 [Ben Laurie]
5300
5301 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5302 md_data void pointer.
5303 [Ben Laurie]
5304
5305 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5306 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5307 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5308 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5309 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5310 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5311 [Ben Laurie]
5312
5313 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5314 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5315 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5316 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5317 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5318 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5319 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5320 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5321 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5322 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5323 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5324 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5325 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5326 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5327 rather than letting it slide.
5328
5329 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5330 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5331 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5332 [Geoff Thorpe]
5333
5334 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5335 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5336 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5337 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5338 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5339 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5340 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5341 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5342 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5343 [Geoff Thorpe]
5344
5345 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5346 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5347 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5348 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5349 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5350
5351 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5352 [Geoff Thorpe]
5353
5354 *) Add EVP test program.
5355 [Ben Laurie]
5356
5357 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5358 [Ben Laurie]
5359
5360 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5361 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5362 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5363 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5364 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5365 [Steve Henson]
5366
5367 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5368 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5369 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5370 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5371 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5372 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5373 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5374
5375 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5376 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5377 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5378 Usage example:
5379
5380 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5381
5382 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5383 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5384 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5385 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5386 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5387
5388 [Ben Laurie]
5389
5390 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5391 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5392 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5393 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5394 anyway): E.g.,
5395
5396 des_key_schedule ks;
5397
5398 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5399 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5400
5401 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5402 [Ben Laurie]
5403
5404 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5405 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5406 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5407 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5408 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5409 functions prevents this.
5410 [Steve Henson]
5411
5412 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5413 [Ben Laurie]
5414
5415 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5416 correct _ecb suffix.
5417 [Ben Laurie]
5418
5419 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5420 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5421 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5422 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5423 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5424 [Steve Henson]
5425
5426 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5427 [Richard Levitte]
5428
5429 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5430 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5431 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5432 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5433
5434 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5435 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5436
5437 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5438 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5439 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5440 via Richard Levitte]
5441
5442 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5443 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5444 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5445 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5446 [Geoff Thorpe]
5447
5448 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5449 Before:
5450 encrypt
5451 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
5452 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
5453 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

5458 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
5459 After:
5460 encrypt
5461 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
5462 decrypt
5463 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
5464 [Ben Laurie]
5465
5466 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5467 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5468
5469 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5470 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5471 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5472 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5473 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5474 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5475 [Steve Henson]
5476
5477 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5478 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5479 [Richard Levitte]
5480
5481 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5482 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5483 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5484 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5485
5486 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5487 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5488 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5489 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5490 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5491 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5492 callback.
5493 [Richard Levitte]
5494
5495 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5496 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5497 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5498 and interrupts/cancellations.
5499 [Richard Levitte]
5500
5501 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5502 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5503 [Steve Henson]
5504
5505 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5506 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5507 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5508
5509 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5510 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5511 kind of callback.
5512 [Richard Levitte]
5513
5514 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5515 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5516 than this minimum value is recommended.
5517 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5518
5519 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5520 that are easily reachable.
5521 [Richard Levitte]
5522
5523 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5524 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5525
5526 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5527
5528 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5529 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5530 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5531 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5532 [Steve Henson]
5533
5534 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5535 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5536 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5537 [Steve Henson]
5538
5539 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5540 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5541 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5542 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5543 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5544 internally such as S/MIME.
5545
5546 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5547 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5548 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5549
5550 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5551 applications.
5552 [Steve Henson]
5553
5554 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5555 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5556 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5557 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5558
5559 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5560
5561 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5562
5563 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5564 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5565 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5566 handling.
5567 [Steve Henson]
5568
5569 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5570 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5571 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5572 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5573 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5574 a window system and the like.
5575 [Richard Levitte]
5576
5577 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5578 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5579 [Geoff]
5580
5581 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5582 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5583 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5584 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5585 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5586 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5587 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5588 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5589 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5590 ENGINE structure.
5591 [Geoff]
5592
5593 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5594 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5595 tag cache.
5596 [Steve Henson]
5597
5598 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5599 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5600 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5601 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5602 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5603 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5604 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5605 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5606 [Geoff]
5607
5608 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5609 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5610 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5611 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5612 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5613 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5614 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5615 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5616 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5617 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5618 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5619 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5620 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5621 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5622 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5623 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5624 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5625 [Geoff]
5626
5627 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5628 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5629 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5630 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5631 internal engine_int.h header.
5632 [Geoff]
5633
5634 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5635 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5636 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5637 modify their own ones).
5638 [Geoff]
5639
5640 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5641 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5642 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5643 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5644 later on via ctrl() commands.
5645 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5646 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5647 structural references.
5648 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5649 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5650 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5651 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5652 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5653 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5654 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5655 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5656 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5657 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5658 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5659 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5660 [Geoff]
5661
5662 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5663 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5664 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5665 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5666 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5667 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5668 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5669 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5670 [Bodo Moeller]
5671
5672 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5673 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5674 [Steve Henson]
5675
5676 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5677 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5678 [Steve Henson]
5679
5680 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5681 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5682 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5683 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5684 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5685 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5686 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5687 [Steve Henson]
5688
5689 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5690 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5691 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5692 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5693 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5694
5695 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5696 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5697 generator).
5698 [Bodo Moeller]
5699
5700 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5701
5702 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5703 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5704 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5705
5706 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5707 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5708
5709 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5710 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5711 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5712
5713 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5714 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5715
5716 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5717 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5718
5719 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5720
5721 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5722 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5723 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5724 [Bodo Moeller]
5725
5726 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5727 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5728 [Richard Levitte]
5729
5730 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5731 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5732 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5733 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5734 is 40 of more characters long.
5735 [Steve Henson]
5736
5737 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5738 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5739 pointers.
5740 [Steve Henson]
5741
5742 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5743 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5744 [Bodo Moeller]
5745
5746 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5747 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5748 might.
5749 [Steve Henson]
5750
5751 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5752
5753 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5754 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5755
5756 ASN1 error codes
5757 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5758 ...
5759 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5760 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5761 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5762 ...
5763 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5764 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5765
5766 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5767 [Bodo Moeller]
5768
5769 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5770 suffices.
5771 [Bodo Moeller]
5772
5773 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5774 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5775 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5776 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5777 and
5778 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5779
5780 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5781 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5782
5783 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5784 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5785 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5786 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5787 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5788 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5789
5790 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5791 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5792
5793 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5794 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5795
5796 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5797 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5798
5799 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5800 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5801 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5802 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5803
5804 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5805 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5806
5807 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5808 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5809
5810 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5811 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5812 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5813 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5814 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5815 [Richard Levitte]
5816
5817 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5818 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5819 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5820 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5821 [Steve Henson]
5822
5823 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5824 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5825 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5826 trust settings.
5827 [Steve Henson]
5828
5829 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5830 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5831 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5832 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5833 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5834 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5835 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5836 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5837 ocsp utility.
5838 [Steve Henson]
5839
5840 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5841 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5842 [Steve Henson]
5843
5844 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5845 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5846 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5847 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5848 [Steve Henson]
5849
5850 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5851 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5852 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5853 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5854 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5855 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5856 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5857 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5858 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5859 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5860 [Steve Henson]
5861
5862 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5863 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5864 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5865 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5866 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5867 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5868 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5869 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5870
5871 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5872 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5873 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5874 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5875 [Richard Levitte]
5876
5877 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5878 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5879 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5880 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5881 opensslconf.h.
5882 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5883 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5884 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5885 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5886 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5887 what is available.
5888 [Richard Levitte]
5889
5890 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5891 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5892 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5893 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5894 auto incremented.
5895 [Steve Henson]
5896
5897 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5898 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5899 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5900 [Steve Henson]
5901
5902 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5903 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5904 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5905 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5906 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5907 [Steve Henson]
5908
5909 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5910 [Steve Henson]
5911
5912 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5913 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5914 option to ocsp utility.
5915 [Steve Henson]
5916
5917 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5918 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5919 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5920 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5921 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5922 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5923 the request is nonce-less.
5924 [Steve Henson]
5925
5926 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5927 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5928 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5929 [Bodo Moeller]
5930
5931 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5932 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5933 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5934 [Steve Henson]
5935
5936 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5937 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5938 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5939 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5940 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5941 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5942
5943 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5944 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5945 appear to exist.
5946 [Steve Henson]
5947
5948 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5949 additional certificates supplied.
5950 [Steve Henson]
5951
5952 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5953 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5954 signature against.
5955 [Richard Levitte]
5956
5957 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5958 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5959 AES OIDs.
5960
5961 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5962 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5963 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5964 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5965 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5966 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5967 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5968 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5969 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5970
5971 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5972 request to response.
5973 [Steve Henson]
5974
5975 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5976 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5977 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5978 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5979 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5980 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5981 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5982 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5983 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5984 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5985 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5986 [Steve Henson]
5987
5988 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5989 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5990 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5991 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5992 [Steve Henson]
5993
5994 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5995 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5996
5997 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5998 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5999 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6000 [Steve Henson]
6001
6002 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6003 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6004 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6005 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6006 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6007
6008 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6009 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6010 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6011 [Steve Henson]
6012
6013 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6014 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6015 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6016 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6017 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6018 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6019 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6020 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6021
6022 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6023 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6024 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6025 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6026 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6027 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6028 [Steve Henson]
6029
6030 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6031 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6032 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6033 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6034 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6035 printout format cleaned up.
6036 [Steve Henson]
6037
6038 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6039 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6040 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6041 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6042 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6043 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6044 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6045 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6046 [Steve Henson]
6047
6048 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6049 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6050 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6051 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6052 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6053 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6054 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6055 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6056 [Steve Henson]
6057
6058 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6059 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6060 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6061 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6062 section to use.
6063 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6064
6065 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6066 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6067 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6068 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6069 [Steve Henson]
6070
6071 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6072 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6073 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6074 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6075 in the index file.
6076 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6077
6078 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6079 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6080 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6081 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6082
6083 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6084 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6085
6086 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6087 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6088 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6089 [Steve Henson]
6090
6091 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6092 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6093 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6094 [Bodo Moeller]
6095
6096 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6097 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6098 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6099 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6100 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6101 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6102 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6103 functions are provided:
6104
6105 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6106 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6107 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6108 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6109
6110 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6111 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6112 extended allocation function is enabled.
6113 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6114 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6115 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6116
6117 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6118 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6119 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6120 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6121 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6122 [Geoff Thorpe]
6123
6124 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6125 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6126 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6127 be queried.
6128 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6129 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6130 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6131 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6132
6133 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6134 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6135 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6136 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6137 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6138 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6139 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6140 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6141 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6142 [Richard Levitte]
6143
6144 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6145 provide utility functions which an application needing
6146 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6147 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6148 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6149
6150 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6151 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6152 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6153 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6154 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6155 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6156 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6157 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6158 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6159
6160 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6161 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6162 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6163 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6164 [Steve Henson]
6165
6166 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6167 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6168 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6169 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6170 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6171 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6172 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6173 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6174 will be added elsewhere.
6175 [Steve Henson]
6176
6177 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6178 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6179 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6180 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6181 [Steve Henson]
6182
6183 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6184 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6185 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6186 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6187 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6188 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6189 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6190 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6191 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6192 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6193 to produce the required SET OF.
6194 [Steve Henson]
6195
6196 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6197 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6198 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6199 [Richard Levitte]
6200
6201 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6202 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6203 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6204 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6205 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6206 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6207 [Steve Henson]
6208
6209 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6210 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6211 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6212 [Steve Henson]
6213
6214 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6215 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6216 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6217 [Richard Levitte]
6218
6219 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6220 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6221 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6222 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6223 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6224 [Steve Henson]
6225
6226 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6227 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6228 [Steve Henson]
6229
6230 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6231 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6232 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6233 certifcates and CRLs.
6234 [Steve Henson]
6235
6236 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6237 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6238 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6239 [Steve Henson]
6240
6241 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
6242 entries for variables.
6243 [Steve Henson]
6244
6245 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6246 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6247 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6248 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6249 [Bodo Moeller]
6250
6251 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6252 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6253 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6254 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6255 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6256 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6257 [Bodo Moeller]
6258
6259 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6260 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6261
6262 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6263 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6264 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6265 [Steve Henson]
6266
6267 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6268 print routines.
6269 [Steve Henson]
6270
6271 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6272 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6273 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6274 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6275 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6276 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6277 [Steve Henson]
6278
6279 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6280 [Steve Henson]
6281
6282 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6283 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6284 for now but they will eventually go away.
6285 [Steve Henson]
6286
6287 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6288 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6289 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6290 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6291 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6292 has also been converted to the new form.
6293 [Steve Henson]
6294
6295 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6296 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6297 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6298 for negative moduli.
6299 [Bodo Moeller]
6300
6301 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6302 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6303 [Bodo Moeller]
6304
6305 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6306 set.
6307 [Bodo Moeller]
6308
6309 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6310 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6311 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6312 type-specific callbacks.
6313 [Geoff Thorpe]
6314
6315 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6316 RFC 2712.
6317 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6318 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6319
6320 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6321 in sections depending on the subject.
6322 [Richard Levitte]
6323
6324 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6325 Windows.
6326 [Richard Levitte]
6327
6328 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6329 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6330 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6331 be handled deterministically).
6332 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6333
6334 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6335 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6336 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6337 [Bodo Moeller]
6338
6339 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6340 [Bodo Moeller]
6341
6342 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6343 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6344 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6345 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6346 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6347 [Bodo Moeller]
6348
6349 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6350 sign of the number in question.
6351
6352 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6353
6354 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6355 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6356 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6357 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6358 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6359 [Bodo Moeller]
6360
6361 *) New function BN_swap.
6362 [Bodo Moeller]
6363
6364 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6365 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6366 results on negative inputs.
6367 [Bodo Moeller]
6368
6369 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6370 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6371 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6372 [Bodo Moeller]
6373
6374 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6375 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6376 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6377 and add new functions:
6378
6379 BN_nnmod
6380 BN_mod_sqr
6381 BN_mod_add
6382 BN_mod_add_quick
6383 BN_mod_sub
6384 BN_mod_sub_quick
6385 BN_mod_lshift1
6386 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6387 BN_mod_lshift
6388 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6389
6390 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6391
6392 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6393 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6394
6395 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6396 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6397 be reduced modulo m.
6398 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6399
6400 #if 0
6401 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
6402 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6403 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6404
6405 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6406 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6407 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6408 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6409 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6410 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6411 differing sizes.
6412 [Richard Levitte]
6413 #endif
6414
6415 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6416 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6417 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6418 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6419 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6420
6421 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6422 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6423 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6424 cause any problems.
6425 [Bodo Moeller]
6426
6427 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6428 [Richard Levitte]
6429
6430 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6431 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6432 [Richard Levitte]
6433
6434 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6435 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6436 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6437 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6438 time)
6439 [Richard Levitte]
6440
6441 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6442 [Richard Levitte]
6443
6444 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6445 [Richard Levitte]
6446
6447 *) Add the following functions:
6448
6449 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6450 ENGINE_load_chil()
6451 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6452 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6453 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6454
6455 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6456 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6457 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6458 libraries unless it's really needed.
6459
6460 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6461 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6462 declarations (they differed!).
6463 [Richard Levitte]
6464
6465 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6466 [Richard Levitte]
6467
6468 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6469 [Richard Levitte]
6470
6471 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6472 [Bodo Moeller]
6473
6474 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6475 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6476 [Richard Levitte]
6477
6478 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6479 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6480 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6481
6482 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6483 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6484 [Richard Levitte]
6485
6486 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6487 [Richard Levitte]
6488
6489 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6490 [Richard Levitte]
6491
6492 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6493 [Ben Laurie]
6494
6495 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6496 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6497 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6498
6499 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6500 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6501 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6502 different shared library filenames on each system.
6503 [Geoff Thorpe]
6504
6505 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6506 [Richard Levitte]
6507
6508 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6509 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6510 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6511 of two sections.
6512 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6513
6514 *) NCONF changes.
6515 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6516 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6517 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6518 binary backward compatibility.
6519 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6520 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6521 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6522 LDAP server.
6523 [Richard Levitte]
6524
6525 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6526 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6527 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6528 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6529 this case.
6530 [Steve Henson]
6531
6532 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6533 [Ben Laurie]
6534
6535 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6536 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6537 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6538 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6539 set.
6540 [Steve Henson]
6541
6542 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6543 [Richard Levitte]
6544
6545 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6546
6547 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6548 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6549 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6550
6551 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6552
6553 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6554
6555 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6556 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6557 [Steve Henson]
6558
6559 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6560
6561 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6562
6563 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6564 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6565
6566 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6567 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6568
6569 [Steve Henson]
6570
6571 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6572 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6573 specifications.
6574 [Steve Henson]
6575
6576 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6577 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6578 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6579 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6580
6581 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6582 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6583 [Richard Levitte]
6584
6585 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6586
6587 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6588 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6589 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6590 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6591 [Bodo Moeller]
6592
6593 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6594 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6595 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6596 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6597 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6598
6599 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6600 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6601 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6602 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6603 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6604 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6605 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6606 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6607 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6608 [Bodo Moeller]
6609
6610 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6611
6612 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6613 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6614 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6615 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6616 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6617
6618 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6619 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6620 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6621
6622 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6623
6624 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6625 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6626 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6627 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6628 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6629 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6630 [Geoff Thorpe]
6631
6632 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6633 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6634 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6635 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6636 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6637 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6638
6639 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6640 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6641 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6642
6643 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6644 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6645 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6646 EVP_cleanup().
6647 [Richard Levitte]
6648
6649 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6650 being properly terminated.
6651 [Richard Levitte]
6652
6653 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6654 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6655 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6656 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6657
6658 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6659 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6660 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6661 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6662 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6663 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6664 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6665 change.
6666 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6667
6668 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6669 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6670 [Bodo Moeller]
6671
6672 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6673 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6674 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6675 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6676 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6677 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6678 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6679 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6680
6681 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6682 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6683 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6684 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6685 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6686
6687 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6688 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6689 [Steve Henson]
6690
6691 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6692
6693 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6694 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6695 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6696
6697 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6698
6699 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6700 and get fix the header length calculation.
6701 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6702 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6703 Steve Henson]
6704
6705 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6706 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6707 assertions could call abort()).
6708 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6709
6710 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6711
6712 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6713 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6714 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6715 supplied buffer.
6716 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6717
6718 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6719 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6720 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6721 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6722
6723 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6724 [Nils Larsch]
6725
6726 *) New option
6727 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6728 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6729 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6730
6731 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6732 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6733 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6734 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6735 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6736 applications.
6737 [Bodo Moeller]
6738
6739 *) Changes in security patch:
6740
6741 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6742 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6743 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6744 F30602-01-2-0537.
6745
6746 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6747 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6748 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6749 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6750 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6751
6752 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6753 happen in practice.
6754 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6755
6756 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6757 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6758 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6759
6760 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6761 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6762 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6763
6764 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6765 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6766 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6767
6768 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6769
6770 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6771 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6772 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6773
6774 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6775 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6776
6777 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6778 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6779 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6780 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6781 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6782 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6783 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6784
6785 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6786 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6787 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6788 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6789 [Bodo Moeller]
6790
6791 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6792 [Bodo Moeller]
6793
6794 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6795 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6796 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6797 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6798 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6799 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6800
6801 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6802 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6803 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6804 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6805 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6806 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6807
6808 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6809 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6810 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6811 BN_generate_prime().)
6812
6813 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6814 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6815 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6816 better.
6817 [Bodo Moeller]
6818
6819 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6820 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6821 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6822
6823 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6824 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6825 when using non-blocking I/O.
6826 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6827
6828 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6829 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6830
6831 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6832 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6833 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6834
6835 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6836 configuration for the versions before that.
6837 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6838
6839 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6840 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6841 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6842 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6843 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6844
6845 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6846 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6847 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6848 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6849
6850 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6851 value is 0.
6852 [Richard Levitte]
6853
6854 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6855 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6856 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6857
6858 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6859 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6860
6861 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6862 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6863 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6864 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6865 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6866 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6867 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6868 session cache.
6869
6870 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6871 using a local variable.
6872 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6873
6874 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6875 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6876 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6877
6878 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6879 [Richard Levitte]
6880
6881 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6882 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6883
6884 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6885 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6886 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6887
6888 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6889
6890 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6891 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6892 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6893 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6894 [Bodo Moeller]
6895
6896 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6897 present.
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6901 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6902 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6903 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6904 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6905
6906 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6907 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6908 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6909
6910 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6911 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6912 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6913
6914 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6915 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6916 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6917 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6918
6919 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6920 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6921 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6922 modules).
6923 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6924
6925 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6926 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6927 from 0.9.7.
6928 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6929
6930 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6931 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6932 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6933 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6934
6935 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6936 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6937 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6938 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6939
6940 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6941 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6942
6943 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6944 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6945 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6946 [Bodo Moeller]
6947
6948 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6949 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6950 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6951 become invalid.
6952 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6953
6954 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6955 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6956 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6957 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6958 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6959 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6960 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6961 [Bodo Moeller]
6962
6963 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6964 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6965 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6966 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6967
6968 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6969 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6970 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6971 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6972 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6973 the client will at least see that alert.
6974 [Bodo Moeller]
6975
6976 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6977 correctly.
6978 [Bodo Moeller]
6979
6980 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6981 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6982 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6983
6984 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6985 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
6986 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6987 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6988 HelloRequest.
6989
6990 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6991 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6992 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6993
6994 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6995 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6996 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6997 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6998 may leak via logfiles.)
6999
7000 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7001 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7002 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7003 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7004 the legal range.
7005 [Bodo Moeller]
7006
7007 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7008 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7009 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7010
7011 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7012 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7013 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7014 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7015 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7016 [Bodo Moeller]
7017
7018 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7019 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7020
7021 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7022 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7023 followed by modular reduction.
7024 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7025
7026 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7027 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7028 [Bodo Moeller]
7029
7030 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7031 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7032 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7033 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7034 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7035
7036 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7037 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7038
7039 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7040 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7041 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7042
7043 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7044 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7045 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7046 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7047 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7048 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7049 automatically.
7050 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7051
7052 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7053 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7054 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7055 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7056 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7057
7058 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7059 [Andy Polyakov]
7060
7061 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7062 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7063 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7064 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7065 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7066 to allow the necessary settings.
7067 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7068
7069 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7070 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7071 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7072 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7073 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7074
7075 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7076 dh->length and always used
7077
7078 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7079
7080 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7081 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7082 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7083 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7084 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7085 dh->length.
7086
7087 So switch back to
7088
7089 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7090
7091 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7092 otherwise.
7093 [Bodo Moeller]
7094
7095 *) In
7096
7097 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7098 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7099 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7100 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7101
7102 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7103 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7104 always reject numbers >= n.
7105 [Bodo Moeller]
7106
7107 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7108 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7109 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7110 variable) is not atomic.
7111 [Bodo Moeller]
7112
7113 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7114 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7115 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7116 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7117
7118 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7119 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7120
7121 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7122 little-endian MIPS.
7123 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7124
7125 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7126 [Richard Levitte]
7127
7128 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7129
7130 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7131 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7132 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7133 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7134 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7135 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7136 to traverse all of 'state'.
7137
7138 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7139 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7140 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7141
7142 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7143 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7144
7145 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7146 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7147 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7148 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7149 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7150 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7151 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7152 further strengthens the PRNG.
7153 [Bodo Moeller]
7154
7155 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7156 [Andy Polyakov]
7157
7158 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7159 an error message in this case.
7160 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7161
7162 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7163 [Steve Henson]
7164
7165 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7166 positive and less than q.
7167 [Bodo Moeller]
7168
7169 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7170 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7171 that itself.
7172 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7173
7174 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7175 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7176 [Bodo Moeller]
7177
7178 *) Fix OAEP check.
7179 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7180
7181 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7182 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7183 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7184 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7185 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7186 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7187 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7188 paper.)
7189
7190 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7191 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7192 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7193 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7194
7195 Both problems are now fixed.
7196 [Bodo Moeller]
7197
7198 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7199 (previously it was 1024).
7200 [Bodo Moeller]
7201
7202 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7203 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7204 [Steve Henson]
7205
7206 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7207 [Steve Henson]
7208
7209 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7210 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7211 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7212 [Steve Henson]
7213
7214 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7215 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7216 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7217 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7218 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7219 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7220 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7221 environment variables.
7222
7223 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7224 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7225 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7226 [Bodo Moeller]
7227
7228 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7229 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7230 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7231 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7232 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7233 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7234 [Bodo Moeller]
7235
7236 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7237 versions of 'test'.
7238 [Bodo Moeller]
7239
7240 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7241
7242 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7243 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7244
7245 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7246 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7247 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7248 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7249 CygWin.
7250 [Richard Levitte]
7251
7252 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7253 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7254 amount of data available.
7255 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7256 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7257
7258 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7259 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7260 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7261 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7262 [Bodo Moeller]
7263
7264 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7265 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7266 and UnixWare.
7267 [Richard Levitte]
7268
7269 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7270 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7271 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7272 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7273 [Ulf Moeller]
7274
7275 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7276 [Andy Polyakov]
7277
7278 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7279 [Richard Levitte]
7280
7281 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7282 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7283 [Steve Henson]
7284 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7285
7286 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7287 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7288 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7289 (but broken) behaviour.
7290 [Steve Henson]
7291
7292 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7293 it when found.
7294 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7295
7296 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7297 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7298 [Bodo Moeller]
7299
7300 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7301 did not exist.
7302 [Bodo Moeller]
7303
7304 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7305 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7306
7307 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7308 [Richard Levitte]
7309
7310 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7311 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7312 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7313
7314 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7315 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7316 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7317 [Steve Henson]
7318
7319 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7320 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7321 [Ulf Moeller]
7322
7323 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7324 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7325
7326 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7327
7328 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7329
7330 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7331 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7332 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7333 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7334 [Bodo Moeller]
7335
7336 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7337 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7338
7339 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7340 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7341 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7342
7343 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7344 was empty.
7345 [Steve Henson]
7346 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7347
7348 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7349 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7350 but the code is actually correct.
7351 [Steve Henson]
7352
7353 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7354 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7355 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7356 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7357 and leaves the highest bit random.
7358 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7359
7360 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7361 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7362 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7363 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7364 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7365 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7366 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7367 [Bodo Moeller]
7368
7369 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7370 [Ulf Moeller]
7371
7372 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7373 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7374 [Steve Henson]
7375
7376 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7377 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7378 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7379 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7380 headers.
7381 [Richard Levitte]
7382
7383 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7384 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7385 and break the signature.
7386 [Steve Henson]
7387 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7388
7389 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7390 DH ciphersuites.
7391 [Steve Henson]
7392
7393 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7394 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7395 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7396 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7397 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7398 [Bodo Moeller]
7399
7400 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7401 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7402
7403 *) ./config script fixes.
7404 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7405
7406 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7407 [Bodo Moeller]
7408
7409 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7410 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7411 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7412 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7413 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7414
7415 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7416 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7417 [Bodo Moeller]
7418
7419 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7420 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7421 [Steve Henson]
7422
7423 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7424 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7425 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7426 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7427
7428 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7429 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7430
7431 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7432 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7433 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7434 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7435 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7436
7437 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7438 [Bodo Moeller]
7439
7440 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7441 [Ulf Möller]
7442
7443 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7444 [Ulf Möller]
7445
7446 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7447 [Bodo Moeller]
7448
7449 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7450 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7451 [Bodo Moeller]
7452
7453 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7454 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7455 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7456 result of the server certificate verification.)
7457 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7458
7459 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7460 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7461 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7462 [Bodo Moeller]
7463
7464 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7465 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7466 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7467 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7468 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7469 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7470 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7471 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7472 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7473 [Bodo Moeller]
7474
7475 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7476 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7477 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7478 happening the other way round.
7479 [Geoff Thorpe]
7480
7481 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7482 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7483 [Bodo Moeller]
7484
7485 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7486 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7487 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7488 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7489 [Richard Levitte]
7490
7491 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7492 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7493
7494 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7495
7496 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7497 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7498 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7499 that.
7500
7501 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7502
7503 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7504
7505 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7506 static ones.
7507 [Richard Levitte]
7508
7509 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7510
7511 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7512 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7513 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7514 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7515 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7516
7517 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7518 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7519 matter what.
7520 [Richard Levitte]
7521
7522 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7523 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7524
7525 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7526
7527 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7528 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7529 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7530 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7531 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7532 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7533 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7534 by the Finished messages.
7535 [Bodo Moeller]
7536
7537 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7538 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7539
7540 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7541 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7542 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7543 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7544 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7545 appropriately.
7546 [Steve Henson]
7547
7548 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7549 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7550 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7551 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7552 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7553 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7554 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7555 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7556 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7557 together.
7558 [Steve Henson]
7559
7560 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7561 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7562 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7563 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7564
7565 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7566 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7567 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7568 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7569 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7570 the answer.
7571
7572 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7573 been tested well enough.
7574 [Richard Levitte]
7575
7576 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7577 it can return incorrect results.
7578 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7579 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7580 [Bodo Moeller]
7581
7582 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7583 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7584 include zero length content when signing messages.
7585 [Steve Henson]
7586
7587 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7588 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7589 [Bodo Möller]
7590
7591 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7592 [Richard Levitte]
7593
7594 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7595 wrong sign.
7596 [Ulf Möller]
7597
7598 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7599 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7600 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7601 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7602 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7603 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7604 [Richard Levitte]
7605
7606 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7607 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7608
7609 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7610 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7611
7612 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7613 random number < q in the DSA library.
7614 [Ulf Möller]
7615
7616 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7617 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7618 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7619 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7620 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7621 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7622 just makes things more complicated.)
7623 [Bodo Moeller]
7624
7625 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7626 from EGD.
7627 [Ben Laurie]
7628
7629 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7630 work better on such systems.
7631 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7632
7633 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7634 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7635 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7636 [Steve Henson]
7637
7638 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7639 if there was more than one signature.
7640 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7641
7642 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7643 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
7644 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7645 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7646 [Richard Levitte]
7647
7648 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7649 rather than always using the current time.
7650 [Steve Henson]
7651
7652 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7653 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7654 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7655 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7656 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7657 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7658
7659 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7660 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7661
7662 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7663
7664 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7665 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7666 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7667 the same hash value.
7668
7669 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7670 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7671 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7672 with X509_STORE internally.
7673
7674 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7675 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7676
7677 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7678 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7679 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7680 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7681 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7682 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7683 entirely (maybe later...).
7684
7685 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7686
7687 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7688 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7689 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7690 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7691 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7692 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7693 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7694 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7695
7696 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7697 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7698
7699 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7700 to customise the verify behaviour.
7701 [Steve Henson]
7702
7703 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7704 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7705 [Steve Henson]
7706
7707 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7708 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7709 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7710 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7711 request is improperly encoded.
7712 [Steve Henson]
7713
7714 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7715 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7716 BIO_write(b, ...).
7717
7718 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7719 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7720
7721 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7722 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7723 words set to zero.)
7724 [Bodo Moeller]
7725
7726 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7727 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7728 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7729 [Bodo Moeller]
7730
7731 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7732 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7733 BIO/fp routines also added.
7734 [Steve Henson]
7735
7736 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7737 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7738
7739 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7740 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7741 demos/state_machine.
7742 [Ben Laurie]
7743
7744 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7745 generation and verification.
7746 [Steve Henson]
7747
7748 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7749 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7750 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7751 encode and decode it manually.
7752 [Steve Henson]
7753
7754 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7755 compile under VC++.
7756 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7757
7758 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7759 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7760 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7761 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7762
7763 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7764 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7765 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7766 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7767 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7768 [Steve Henson]
7769
7770 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7771 [Richard Levitte]
7772
7773 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7774 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7775 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7776
7777 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7778 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7779 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7780 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7781 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7782 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7783 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7784 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7785
7786 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7787 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7788
7789 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7790
7791 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7792 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7793 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7794
7795 [Richard Levitte]
7796
7797 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7798 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7799 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7800 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7801 [Richard Levitte]
7802
7803 *) MD4 implemented.
7804 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7805
7806 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7807 [Richard Levitte]
7808
7809 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7810 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7811 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7812 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7813 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7814 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7815 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7816 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7817 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7818 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7819 short or long names are found.
7820 [Steve Henson]
7821
7822 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7823 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7824
7825 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7826 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7827 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7828 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7829
7830 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7831 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7832 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7833 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7834 [Bodo Moeller]
7835
7836 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7837 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7838 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7839 [Richard Levitte]
7840
7841 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7842 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7843 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7844 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7845 to allow the various flags to be set.
7846 [Steve Henson]
7847
7848 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7849 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7850 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7851 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7852 dates to be checked.
7853 [Steve Henson]
7854
7855 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7856 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7857 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7858 [Steve Henson]
7859
7860 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7861 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7862 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7863 [Steve Henson]
7864
7865 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7866 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7867 [Bodo Moeller]
7868
7869 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7870 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7871 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7872 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7873 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7874 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7875 [Richard Levitte]
7876
7877 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7878 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7879 Random Numbers.
7880 [Ulf Möller]
7881
7882 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7883 DSA key.
7884 [Steve Henson]
7885
7886 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7887 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7888 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7889 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7890 form signing output easier to verify.
7891 [Steve Henson]
7892
7893 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7894 [Steve Henson]
7895
7896 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7897 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7898 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7899 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7900 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7901 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7902 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7903 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7904 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7905 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7906 [Steve Henson]
7907
7908 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7909
7910 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7911 the syntax given in objects.README.
7912 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7913 obj_mac.h.
7914 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7915 obj_mac.h.
7916
7917 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7918 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7919 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7920 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7921 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7922 consistent name changes.
7923 [Richard Levitte]
7924
7925 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7926 [Bodo Moeller]
7927
7928 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7929 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7930 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7931 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7932 [Richard Levitte]
7933
7934 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7935 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7936 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7937 of safestack.h .
7938 [Steve Henson]
7939
7940 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7941 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7942 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7943 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7944 [Steve Henson]
7945
7946 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7947 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7948 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7949 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7950 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7951 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7952 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7953 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7954 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7955 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7956 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7957 [Steve Henson]
7958
7959 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7960 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7961 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7962 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
7963 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7964 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7965 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7966 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7967 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7968 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7969 [Steve Henson]
7970
7971 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7972 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7973 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7974 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7975
7976 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7977 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7978 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7979 omit any duplicate addresses.
7980 [Steve Henson]
7981
7982 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7983 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7984 [Bodo Moeller]
7985
7986 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7987 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7988 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7989 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7990 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7991 [Bodo Moeller]
7992
7993 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7994 software:
7995 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7996 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7997 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7998 Free => OPENSSL_free
7999 [Richard Levitte]
8000
8001 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8002 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8003 [Bodo Moeller]
8004
8005 *) CygWin32 support.
8006 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8007
8008 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8009 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8010 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8011 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8012 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8013 approach.
8014 [Geoff Thorpe]
8015
8016 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8017 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8018 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8019 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8020 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8021 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8022 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8023 [Geoff Thorpe]
8024
8025 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8026 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8027 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8028 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8029 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8030 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8031 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8032 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8033 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8034 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8035 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8036 [Bodo Moeller]
8037
8038 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8039 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8040 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8041 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8042 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8043
8044 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8045 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8046 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8047 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8048 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8049
8050 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8051 ciphers.
8052
8053 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8054 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8055 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8056 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8057
8058 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8059
8060 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8061 of macros.
8062
8063 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8064 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8065 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8066 flags.
8067
8068 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8069 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8070 any installed hardware versions can.
8071 [Steve Henson]
8072
8073 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8074 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8075 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8076 number.
8077 [Bodo Moeller]
8078
8079 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8080 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8081 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8082 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8083 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8084
8085 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8086 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8087 [Steve Henson]
8088
8089 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8090 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8091 [Richard Levitte]
8092
8093 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8094 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8095 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8096 features.
8097 [Steve Henson]
8098
8099 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8100 [Ulf Möller]
8101
8102 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8103 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8104 but no ssl client purpose.
8105 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8106
8107 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8108 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8109 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8110 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8111 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8112 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8113 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8114 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8115 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8116 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8117 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8118 [Steve Henson]
8119
8120 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8121 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8122 be obtained from the error queue.
8123 [Bodo Moeller]
8124
8125 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8126 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8127 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8128 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8129 [Bodo Moeller]
8130
8131 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8132 [Ulf Möller]
8133
8134 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8135 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8136 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8137 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8138 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8139 [Geoff Thorpe]
8140
8141 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8142 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8143 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8144 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8145 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8146 [Geoff Thorpe]
8147
8148 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8149 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8150 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8151 may not be NULL.
8152 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8153
8154 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8155 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8156 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8157 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8158 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8159 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8160 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8161 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8162 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8163 or "the configuration storage API"...
8164
8165 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8166
8167 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8168 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8169
8170 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8171
8172 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8173
8174 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8175 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8176 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8177 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8178 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8179 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8180 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8181
8182 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8183 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8184 [Richard Levitte]
8185
8186 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8187 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8188 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8189 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8190 [Bodo Moeller]
8191
8192 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8193 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8194 them in a portable way.
8195 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8196
8197 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8198
8199 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8200
8201 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8202 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8203
8204 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8205 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8206 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8207 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8208
8209 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8210 was larger than the MD block size.
8211 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8212
8213 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8214 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8215 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8216 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8217 components.
8218 [Steve Henson]
8219
8220 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8221 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8222 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8223
8224 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8225 discouraged.
8226 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8227
8228 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8229 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8230 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8231 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8232 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8233 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8234
8235 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8236 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8237
8238 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8239 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8240 [Bodo Moeller]
8241
8242 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8243 [Bodo Moeller]
8244
8245 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8246 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8247 its own key.
8248 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8249 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8250 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
8251 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8252 [Bodo Moeller]
8253
8254 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8255 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8256 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8257 does not suppress any output.
8258 [Richard Levitte]
8259
8260 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8261 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8262 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8263 with all the associated security issues.
8264
8265 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8266 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8267 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8268 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8269 use the value in the default purpose.
8270 [Steve Henson]
8271
8272 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8273 and fix a memory leak.
8274 [Steve Henson]
8275
8276 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8277 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8278 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8279 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8280 [Bodo Moeller]
8281
8282 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8283 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8284 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8285 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8286 [Bodo Moeller]
8287
8288 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8289 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8290 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8291 [Bodo Moeller]
8292
8293 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8294 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8295 [Bodo Moeller]
8296
8297 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8298 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8299 which was free.
8300 [Steve Henson]
8301
8302 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8303 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8304 [Bodo Moeller]
8305
8306 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8307 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8308 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8309 [Bodo Moeller]
8310
8311 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8312 number generation fails.
8313 [Bodo Moeller]
8314
8315 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8316 [Bodo Moeller]
8317
8318 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8319 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8320
8321 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8322 [Ulf Möller]
8323
8324 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8325 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8326
8327 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8328 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8329
8330 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8331
8332 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8333 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8334 [Steve Henson]
8335
8336 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8337 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8338
8339 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8340 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8341 [Ulf Möller]
8342
8343 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8344 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8345 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8346 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8347 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8348 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8349
8350 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8351 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8352 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8353 for example.
8354 [Steve Henson]
8355
8356 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8357 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8358 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8359 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8360 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8361 counter, some don't.)
8362 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8363 counters or duplicate objects.
8364 [Steve Henson]
8365
8366 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8367 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8368 [Steve Henson]
8369
8370 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8371 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8372 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8373
8374 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8375 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8376 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8377 or -rand.
8378 [Ulf Möller]
8379
8380 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8381 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8382 [Steve Henson]
8383
8384 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8385 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8386 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8387 cipher list.
8388 [Steve Henson]
8389
8390 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8391 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8392 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8393 [Steve Henson]
8394
8395 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8396 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8397 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8398 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8399 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8400 should work without changes.
8401 [Richard Levitte]
8402
8403 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8404 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8405 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8406 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8407 must be defined. E.g.,
8408 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8409 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8410 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8411 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8412
8413 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8414 record layer.
8415 [Bodo Moeller]
8416
8417 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8418 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8419 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8420 [Steve Henson]
8421
8422 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8423 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8424 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8425 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8426 [Steve Henson]
8427
8428 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8429 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8430 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8431 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8432 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8433 is prompted for as usual.
8434 [Steve Henson]
8435
8436 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8437 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8438 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8439 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8440
8441 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8442 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8443 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8444 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8445 [Steve Henson]
8446
8447 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8448 [Andy Polyakov]
8449
8450 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8451 of seed file.
8452 [Steve Henson]
8453
8454 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8455 [Bodo Moeller]
8456
8457 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8458 [Steve Henson]
8459
8460 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8461 bits.
8462 [Ulf Möller]
8463
8464 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8465 [Ulf Möller]
8466
8467 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8468 [Andy Polyakov]
8469
8470 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8471 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8472 [Ulf Möller]
8473
8474 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8475 options to produce them.
8476 [Steve Henson]
8477
8478 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8479 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8480 [Ulf Möller]
8481
8482 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8483 for p == 0.
8484 [Ulf Möller]
8485
8486 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8487 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8488 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8489 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8490 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8491 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8492 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8493 [Steve Henson]
8494
8495 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8496 [Steve Henson]
8497
8498 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8499 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8500 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8501 [Bodo Moeller]
8502
8503 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8504 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8505
8506 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8507 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8508 [Ulf Möller]
8509
8510 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8511 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8512 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8513 has already seen).
8514 [Bodo Moeller]
8515
8516 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8517 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8518
8519 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8520 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8521 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8522 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8523 generation becomes much faster.
8524
8525 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8526 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8527 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8528 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8529 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8530 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8531 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8532 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8533 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8534 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8535 [Bodo Moeller]
8536
8537 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8538 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8539 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8540 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8541 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8542 trial division stage.
8543 [Bodo Moeller]
8544
8545 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8546 as ASN1_TIME.
8547 [Steve Henson]
8548
8549 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8550 [Steve Henson]
8551
8552 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8553 [Ulf Möller]
8554
8555 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8556 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8557 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8558 the comments.
8559 [Ulf Möller]
8560
8561 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8562 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8563 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8564 [Bodo Moeller]
8565
8566 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8567 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8568 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8569 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8570
8571 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8572 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8576 [Ulf Möller]
8577
8578 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8579 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8580 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8581 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8582 [Ulf Möller]
8583
8584 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8585 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8586 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8587 [Ulf Möller]
8588
8589 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8590 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8591 (instead of parameters) in future.
8592 [Steve Henson]
8593
8594 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8595 when a new cipher list is set.
8596 [Steve Henson]
8597
8598 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8599 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8600 wrong.
8601
8602 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8603 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8604 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8605
8606 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8607 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8608 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8609 an error is flagged.
8610
8611 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8612 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8613 the readability was also increased :-)
8614 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8615
8616 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8617 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8618 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8619 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8620 as the root CA.
8621 [Steve Henson]
8622
8623 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8624 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8625 [Steve Henson]
8626
8627 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8628 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8629 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
8630 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8631 instead.
8632
8633 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8634 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8635 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8636 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8637 because they handle more complex structures.)
8638 [Steve Henson]
8639
8640 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8641 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8642 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8643 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8644
8645 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8646 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8647 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8648 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8649 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8650 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8651 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8652 [Ulf Möller]
8653
8654 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8655 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8656 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8657 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8658 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8659 [Bodo Moeller]
8660
8661 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8662 [Bodo Moeller]
8663
8664 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8665 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8666 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8667 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8668 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8669 to use this.
8670
8671 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8672 code.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8676 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8677 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8678 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8679 [Steve Henson]
8680
8681 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8682 [Ulf Möller]
8683
8684 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8685 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8686 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8687 international characters are used.
8688
8689 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8690 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8691 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8692 in ASN1 order.
8693 [Steve Henson]
8694
8695 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8696 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8697 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8698 request.
8699
8700 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8701 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8702 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8703 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8704 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8705 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8706
8707 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8708 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8709 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8710 be handled by the string table functions.
8711
8712 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8713 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8714 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8715 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8716 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8717 types at all.
8718 [Steve Henson]
8719
8720 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8721 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8722 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8723 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8724 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8725
8726 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8727 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8728 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8729 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8730 [Bodo Moeller]
8731
8732 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8733 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8734 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8735 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8736 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8737 SHA1.
8738 [Andy Polyakov]
8739
8740 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8741 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8742 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8743 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8744 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8745 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8746 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8747 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8748
8749 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8750 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8751 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8752 [Steve Henson]
8753
8754 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8755 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8756 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8757 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8758 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8759 support to pkcs8 application.
8760 [Steve Henson]
8761
8762 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8763 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8764 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8765 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8766 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8767 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8768 [Bodo Moeller]
8769
8770 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8771 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8772 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8773 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8774 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8775 consistency.
8776 [Bodo Moeller]
8777
8778 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8779 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8780 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8781 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8782 example.
8783 [Steve Henson]
8784
8785 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8786 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8787 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8788 and any application specific purposes.
8789
8790 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8791 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8792 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8793 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8794 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8795 if the certificate is self signed.
8796 [Steve Henson]
8797
8798 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8799 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8800 [Steve Henson]
8801
8802 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8803 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8804 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8805 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8806 [Steve Henson]
8807
8808 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8809 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8810 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8811 Update documentation.
8812 [Steve Henson]
8813
8814 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8815 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8816 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8817 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8818 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8819 [Steve Henson]
8820
8821 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8822 for details.
8823 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8824
8825 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8826 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8827 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8828 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8829 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8830 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8831 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8832 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8833 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8834 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8835
8836 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8837
8838 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8839 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8840 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8841 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8842 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8843
8844 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8845 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8846 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8847 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8848 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8849 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8850 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8851 request additional information:
8852 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8853 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8854
8855 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8856 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8857 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8858 options.
8859
8860 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8861 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8862
8863 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8864 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8865 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8866
8867 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8868 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8869
8870 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8871 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8872 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8873 algorithm.
8874 [Steve Henson]
8875
8876 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8877 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8878 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8879
8880 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8881 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8882 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8883 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8884 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8885 included in OpenSSL.
8886 [Steve Henson]
8887
8888 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8889 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8890 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8891 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8892 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8893 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8894 [Bodo Moeller]
8895
8896 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8897 PKCS12 structure.
8898 [Steve Henson]
8899
8900 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8901 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8902 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8903 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8904 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8905 structure.
8906 [Steve Henson]
8907
8908 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8909 need initialising.
8910 [Steve Henson]
8911
8912 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8913 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8914 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8915 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8916 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8917 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8918 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8919 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8920 be maintained manually.
8921
8922 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8923 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8924 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8925 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8926 work because people forget to call this function]
8927 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8928 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8929 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8930 [Steve Henson]
8931
8932 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8933 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8934 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8935 should be discouraged from doing it.
8936 [Ben Laurie]
8937
8938 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8939 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8940 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8941 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8942 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8943 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8944 [Steve Henson]
8945
8946 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8947 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8948 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8949
8950 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8951 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8952 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8953
8954 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8955 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8956 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8957 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8958 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8959 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8960
8961 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8962 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8963 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8964
8965 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8966 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8967 and vice versa.
8968
8969 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8970 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8971 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8972 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8973 [Steve Henson]
8974
8975 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8976 [Steve Henson]
8977
8978 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8979 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8980 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8981 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8982 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8983 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8984 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8985 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8986 keys so we should be OK.
8987
8988 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8989 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8990 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8991 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8992 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8993 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8994 stay in the name of compatibility.
8995
8996 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8997 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8998 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8999
9000 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9001 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9002 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9003 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9004 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9005 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9006 supplied key).
9007 [Steve Henson]
9008
9009 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9010 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9011 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9012 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9013 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9014 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9015 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9016 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9017 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9018 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9019 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9020 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9021 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9022 [Steve Henson]
9023
9024 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9025 [Steve Henson]
9026
9027 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9028 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9029 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9030 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9031 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9032 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9033 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9034 openssl verify ss.pem
9035 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9036 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9037 is OK.
9038 [Steve Henson]
9039
9040 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9041 (and add it to external session representation).
9042 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9043 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9044 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9045 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9046 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9047 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9048 security holes.
9049 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9050
9051 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9052 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9053 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9054 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9055
9056 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9057 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9058 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9059 [Steve Henson]
9060
9061 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9062 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9063 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9064 code.
9065 [Steve Henson]
9066
9067 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9068 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9069 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9070
9071 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9072 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9073 certificate auxiliary information.
9074 [Steve Henson]
9075
9076 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9077 the 'enc' command.
9078 [Steve Henson]
9079
9080 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9081 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9082 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9083 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9084 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9085 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9086 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9087 [Richard Levitte]
9088
9089 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9090 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9091 [Steve Henson]
9092
9093 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9094 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9095 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9096 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9097 [Steve Henson]
9098
9099 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9100 [Steve Henson]
9101
9102 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9103 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9104 [Steve Henson]
9105
9106 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9107 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9108 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9109 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9110 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9111 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9112 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9113 using the new 'x509' options.
9114
9115 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9116 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9117 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9118 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9119 for all purposes.
9120 [Steve Henson]
9121
9122 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9123 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9124 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9125 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9126 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9127 [Mark Cox]
9128
9129 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9130 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9131 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9132 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9133 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9134 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9135 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9136 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9137 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9138 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9139 [Steve Henson]
9140
9141 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9142 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9143 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9144 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9145 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9146 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9147 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9148 [Steve Henson]
9149
9150 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9151 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9152 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9153 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9154 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9155 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9156 openssl.cnf for more info.
9157 [Steve Henson]
9158
9159 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9160 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9161 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9162 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9163 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9164 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9165 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9166 md should be large enough anyway.
9167 [Bodo Moeller]
9168
9169 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9170 for handling the random seed file.
9171
9172 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9173 ca,
9174 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9175 s_client,
9176 s_server,
9177 x509 (when signing).
9178 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9179 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9180 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9181
9182 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9183 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9184 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9185 that support '-rand'.
9186 [Bodo Moeller]
9187
9188 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9189 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9190 [Bodo Moeller]
9191
9192 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9193 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9194 [Bill Perry]
9195
9196 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9197 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9198 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9199 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9200 is suitable.
9201 [Steve Henson]
9202
9203 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9204 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9205 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9206 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9207 [Steve Henson]
9208
9209 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9210 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9211 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9212 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9213 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9214 print out all the purposes.
9215 [Steve Henson]
9216
9217 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9218 functions.
9219 [Steve Henson]
9220
9221 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9222 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9223 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9224 single function call.
9225 [Steve Henson]
9226
9227 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9228 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9229 [Andy Polyakov]
9230
9231 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9232 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9233 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9234 [Steve Henson]
9235
9236 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9237 when producing the local key id.
9238 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9239
9240 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9241 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9242 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9243 "server.pem".
9244 [Steve Henson]
9245
9246 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9247 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9248 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9249 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9250 [Steve Henson]
9251
9252 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9253 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9254 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9255 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9256
9257 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9258 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9259 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9260 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9261
9262 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9263 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9264 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9265 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9266 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9267 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9268 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9269 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9270 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9271 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9272 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9273 trivial: move one line.
9274 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9275
9276 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9277 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9278 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9279 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9280 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9281 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9282 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9283 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9284 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9285 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9286 with an event loop for example.
9287 [Steve Henson]
9288
9289 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9290 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9291 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9292 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9293 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9294 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9295 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9296 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9297 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9298 [Steve Henson]
9299
9300 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9301 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9302 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9303 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9304 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9305 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9306 [Steve Henson]
9307
9308 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9309 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9310 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9311 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9312
9313 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9314 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9315 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9316 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9317 key generation.
9318 [Steve Henson]
9319
9320 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9321 (still largely untested)
9322 [Bodo Moeller]
9323
9324 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9325 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9326 [Steve Henson]
9327
9328 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9329 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9330 [Steve Henson]
9331
9332 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9333 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9334 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9335 [Bodo Moeller]
9336
9337 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9338 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9339 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9340 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9341 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9342 [Steve Henson]
9343
9344 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9345 [Andy Polyakov]
9346
9347 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9348 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9349 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9350 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9351 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9352 in ca.
9353 [Steve Henson]
9354
9355 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9356 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9357 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9358 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9359 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9360 [Steve Henson]
9361
9362 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9363 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9364 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9365 are otherwise ignored at present.
9366 [Steve Henson]
9367
9368 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9369 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9370 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9371 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9372 copied until the next read.
9373 [Steve Henson]
9374
9375 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9376 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9377 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9378 [Steve Henson]
9379
9380 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9381 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9382 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9383 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9384 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9385 associated functions.
9386 [Steve Henson]
9387
9388 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9389 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9390 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9391 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9392 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9393 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9394 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9395 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9396 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9397 memory BIOs.
9398 [Steve Henson]
9399
9400 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9401 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9402 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9403 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9404 [Bodo Moeller]
9405
9406 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9407 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9408 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9409 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9410 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9411 functionality.
9412 [Steve Henson]
9413
9414 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9415 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9416 under Win32.
9417 [Steve Henson]
9418
9419 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9420 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9421 extensions to be obtained and added.
9422 [Steve Henson]
9423
9424 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9425 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9426 [Bodo Moeller]
9427
9428 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9429
9430 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9431 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9432
9433 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9434 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9435
9436 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9437 program.
9438 [Steve Henson]
9439
9440 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9441 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9442 DH parameters contain its length).
9443
9444 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9445 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9446 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9447 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9448 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9449 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9450 utter importance to use
9451 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9452 or
9453 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9454 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9455 attacks may become possible!
9456 [Bodo Moeller]
9457
9458 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9459 [Bodo Moeller]
9460
9461 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9462 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9463 [Steve Henson]
9464
9465 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9466 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9467 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9468 or long name.
9469 [Steve Henson]
9470
9471 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9472 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9473 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9474 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9475 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9476 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9477 private key operations.
9478 [Steve Henson]
9479
9480 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9481 [Andy Polyakov]
9482
9483 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9484 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9485 to
9486 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9487 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9488 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9489 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9490 the password callback is called.
9491 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9492
9493 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9494
9495 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9496 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9497 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9498 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9499 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9500 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9501 this will work.
9502
9503 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9504 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9505 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9506 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9507 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9508 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9509 [Bodo Moeller]
9510
9511 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9512 [Andy Polyakov]
9513
9514 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9515 delete an unused file.
9516 [Ulf Möller]
9517
9518 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9519 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9520 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9521 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9522 [Steve Henson]
9523
9524 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9525 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9526 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9527 of an error.
9528 [Bodo Moeller]
9529
9530 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9531 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9532 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9533
9534 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9535 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9536 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9537 comparison" warnings.
9538 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9539 [Steve Henson]
9540
9541 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9542 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9543 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9544 [Steve Henson]
9545
9546 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9547 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9548
9549 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9550 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9551
9552 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9553 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9554 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9555
9556 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9557 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9558 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9559 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9560 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9561 this bug.
9562 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9563
9564 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9565 The interface is as follows:
9566 Applications can use
9567 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9568 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9569 "off" is now the default.
9570 The library internally uses
9571 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9572 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9573 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9574
9575 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9576 even the default) are now avoided.
9577
9578 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9579 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9580 than just having a counter.
9581
9582 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9583
9584 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9585 extensions.
9586 [Bodo Moeller]
9587
9588 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9589 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9590 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9591 Initial "mode" flags are:
9592
9593 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9594 a single record has been written.
9595 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9596 retries use the same buffer location.
9597 (But all of the contents must be
9598 copied!)
9599 [Bodo Moeller]
9600
9601 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9602 worked.
9603
9604 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9605 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9606
9607 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9608 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9609 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9610 [Steve Henson]
9611
9612 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9613 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9614 test programs.
9615 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9616
9617 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9618 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9619 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9620 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9621 point to the end.
9622 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9623 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9624
9625 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9626 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9627 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9628 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9629 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9630 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9631 [Steve Henson]
9632
9633 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9634 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9635 necessary function names.
9636 [Steve Henson]
9637
9638 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9639 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9640 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9641 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9642 [Bodo Moeller]
9643
9644 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9645 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9646 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9647 [Steve Henson]
9648
9649 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9650 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9651 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9652 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9653 such programs?)
9654 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9655 need locks.
9656 [Bodo Moeller]
9657
9658 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9659 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9660 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9661 [Bodo Moeller]
9662
9663 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9664 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9665 appropriate.
9666 [Bodo Moeller]
9667
9668 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9669 for the encoded length.
9670 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9671
9672 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9673 [Steve Henson]
9674
9675 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9676 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9677 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9678 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9679 [Steve Henson]
9680
9681 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9682 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9683 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9684
9685 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9686 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9687 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9688 unusual formatting.
9689 [Steve Henson]
9690
9691 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9692 to use the new extension code.
9693 [Steve Henson]
9694
9695 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9696 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9697 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9698 constant.
9699 [Steve Henson]
9700
9701 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9702 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9703 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9704 [Bodo Moeller]
9705
9706 #if 0
9707 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9708 [Ben Laurie]
9709 #else
9710 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9711 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9712 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9713 #endif
9714
9715 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9716 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9717 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9718 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9719 [Ben Laurie]
9720
9721 *) DES library cleanups.
9722 [Ulf Möller]
9723
9724 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9725 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9726 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9727 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9728 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9729 of v2.0.
9730 [Steve Henson]
9731
9732 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9733 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9734 [Bodo Moeller]
9735
9736 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9737 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9738 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9739 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9740 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9741 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9742 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9743 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9744 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9745 [Steve Henson]
9746
9747 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9748 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9749 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9750 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9751 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9752 value doesn't matter.
9753 [Steve Henson]
9754
9755 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9756 support mutable.
9757 [Ben Laurie]
9758
9759 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9760 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9761 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9762 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9763
9764 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9765 [Ulf Möller]
9766
9767 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9768 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9769 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9770
9771 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9772 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9773
9774 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9775 [Ben Laurie]
9776
9777 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9778 [Ben Laurie]
9779
9780 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9781 [Ben Laurie]
9782
9783 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9784 [Bodo Moeller]
9785
9786
9787 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9788
9789 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9790
9791 *) Updated some demos.
9792 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9793
9794 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9795 [Wu Zhigang]
9796
9797 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9798 [Steve Henson]
9799
9800 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9801 [Steve Henson]
9802
9803 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9804 instead of using a fixed path.
9805 [Bodo Moeller]
9806
9807 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9808 [Andy Polyakov]
9809
9810 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9811 [Richard Levitte]
9812
9813
9814 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9815
9816 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9817 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9818 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9819
9820 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9821 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9822 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9823 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9824 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9825 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9826 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9827 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9828 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9829 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9830 [Steve Henson]
9831
9832 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9833 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9834 [Steve Henson]
9835
9836 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9837 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9838 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9839 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9840 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9841
9842 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9843 [Bodo Moeller]
9844
9845 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9846 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9847 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9848 [Steve Henson]
9849
9850 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9851 [Ben Laurie]
9852
9853 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9854 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9855 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9856 key elements as negative integers.
9857 [Steve Henson]
9858
9859 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9860 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9861
9862 *) VMS support.
9863 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9864
9865 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9866 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9867 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9868 [Steve Henson]
9869
9870 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9871 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9872 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9873 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9874 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9875 [Bodo Moeller]
9876
9877 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9878 [Ulf Möller]
9879
9880 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9881 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9882 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9883 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9884
9885 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9886 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9887 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9888
9889 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9890 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9891 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9892 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9893 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9894 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9895 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9896 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9897 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9898
9899 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9900 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9901 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9902 does not influence s as it used to.
9903
9904 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9905 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9906 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9907 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9908 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9909 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9910 [Bodo Moeller]
9911
9912 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9913 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9914 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9915 key type.
9916 [Steve Henson]
9917
9918 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9919 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9920 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9921 and 'x509').
9922 [Steve Henson]
9923
9924 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9925 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9926 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9927 extension option.
9928 [Steve Henson]
9929
9930 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9931 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9932 [Ben Laurie]
9933
9934 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9935 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9936
9937 *) Support Mingw32.
9938 [Ulf Möller]
9939
9940 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9941 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9942
9943 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9944 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9945
9946 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9947 [Ulf Möller]
9948
9949 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9950 [Anonymous]
9951
9952 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9953 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9954
9955 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9956 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9957 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9958 DER-encoded.)
9959 [Bodo Moeller]
9960
9961 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9962 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9963 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9964 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9965 now it really counts the depth.
9966 [Bodo Moeller]
9967
9968 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9969 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9970 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9971 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9972 didn't match the private key).
9973
9974 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9975 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9976 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9977 [Bodo Moeller]
9978
9979 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9980 [Ulf Möller]
9981
9982 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9983 David Harris.
9984 [Bodo Moeller]
9985
9986 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9987 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9988 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9989 [Bodo Moeller]
9990
9991 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9992 [Bodo Moeller]
9993
9994 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9995 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9996 such as /usr/local/bin.
9997 [Bodo Moeller]
9998
9999 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10000 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10001
10002 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10003 [Ulf Möller]
10004
10005 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10006 extension adding in x509 utility.
10007 [Steve Henson]
10008
10009 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10010 [Ulf Möller]
10011
10012 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10013 prototypes.
10014 [Steve Henson]
10015
10016 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10017 [Ulf Möller]
10018
10019 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10020 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10021 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10022 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10023 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10024 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10025 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10026 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10027 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10028 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10029 [Steve Henson]
10030
10031 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10032 [Bodo Moeller]
10033
10034 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10035 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10036 [Bodo Moeller]
10037
10038 *) Fix some race conditions.
10039 [Bodo Moeller]
10040
10041 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10042 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10043 [Steve Henson]
10044
10045 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10046 [Ulf Möller]
10047
10048 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10049 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10050 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10051 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10052
10053 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10054 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10055
10056 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10057 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10058 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10059
10060 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10061 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10062
10063 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10064 [Ulf Möller]
10065
10066 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10067 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10068
10069 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10070 [Ulf Möller]
10071
10072 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10073 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10074
10075 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10076 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10077 [Steve Henson]
10078
10079 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10080 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10081 [Ben Laurie]
10082
10083 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10084 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10085 [Steve Henson]
10086
10087 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10088 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10089 [Steve Henson]
10090
10091 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10092 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10093 [Steve Henson]
10094
10095 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10096 support typesafe stack.
10097 [Steve Henson]
10098
10099 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10100 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10101
10102 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10103 old X509V3 handling code.
10104 [Steve Henson]
10105
10106 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10107 [Ulf Möller]
10108
10109 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10110 [Bodo Moeller]
10111
10112 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10113 [Ben Laurie]
10114
10115 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10116 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10117
10118 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10119 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10120 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10121 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10122 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10123 [Ben Laurie]
10124
10125 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10126 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10127 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10128 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10129 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10130
10131 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10132 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10133 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10134 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10135
10136 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10137 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10138 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10139 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10140
10141 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10142 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10143 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10144 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10145 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10146 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10147 [Bodo Moeller]
10148
10149 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10150 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10151 [Bodo Moeller]
10152
10153 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10154 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10155 [Ulf Möller]
10156
10157 *) Tweaks to Configure
10158 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10159
10160 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10161 yet...
10162 [Steve Henson]
10163
10164 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10165 [Ulf Möller]
10166
10167 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10168 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10169 [Ulf Möller]
10170
10171 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10172 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10173 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10174 [Bodo Moeller]
10175
10176 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10177 [Bodo Moeller]
10178
10179 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10180 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10181 [Steve Henson]
10182
10183 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10184 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10185 to library startup routines.
10186 [Steve Henson]
10187
10188 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10189 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10190 codes along the way.
10191 [Steve Henson]
10192
10193 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10194 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10195 objects to objects.h
10196 [Steve Henson]
10197
10198 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10199 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10200 [Steve Henson]
10201
10202 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10203 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10204
10205 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10206 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10207 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10208
10209 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10210 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10211 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10212
10213 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10214 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10215 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10216
10217
10218 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10219
10220 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10221 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10222 [Ben Laurie]
10223
10224 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10225 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10226 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10227 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10228 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10229
10230 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10231 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10232 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10233 document.
10234 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10235
10236 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10237 Malloc, Free.
10238 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10239
10240 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10241 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10242
10243 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10244 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10245 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10246 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10247
10248 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10249 [Ben Laurie]
10250
10251 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10252 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10253 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10254 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10255 [Steve Henson]
10256
10257 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10258 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10259 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10260 [Steve Henson]
10261
10262 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10263 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10264 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10265 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10266 installed as `perl').
10267 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10268
10269 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10270 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10271
10272 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10273 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
10274 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10275 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10276 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10277 [Steve Henson]
10278
10279 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10280 [Ben Laurie]
10281
10282 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10283 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10284 is horrible: I feel ill....
10285 [Steve Henson]
10286
10287 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10288 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10289 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10290 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10291 [Steve Henson]
10292
10293 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10294 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10295
10296 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10297 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10298 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10299 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10300
10301 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10302 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10303 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10304 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10305 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10306 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10307 openssl_bio.xs.
10308 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10309
10310 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10311 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10312
10313 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10314 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10315
10316 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10317 [Ben Laurie]
10318
10319 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10320 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10321 in CRLs.
10322 [Steve Henson]
10323
10324 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10325 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10326 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10327 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10328 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10329 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10330 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10331 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10332 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10333 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10334 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10335
10336 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10337 [Ben Laurie]
10338
10339 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10340 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10341 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10342 for linking it into DSOs.
10343 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10344
10345 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10346 Fixed.
10347 [Ben Laurie]
10348
10349 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10350 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10351 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10352 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10353 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10354 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10355
10356 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10357 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10358 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10359 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10360 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10361 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10362 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10363
10364 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10365 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10366 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10367 encryption.
10368 [Ben Laurie]
10369
10370 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10371 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10372 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10373 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10374 [Steve Henson]
10375
10376 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10377 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10378 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10379 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10380 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10381 field as blank.
10382 [Steve Henson]
10383
10384 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10385 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10386 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10387 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10388 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10389
10390 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10391 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10392 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10393
10394 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10395 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10396
10397 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10398 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10399 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10400 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10401 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10402 [Steve Henson]
10403
10404 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10405 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10406 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10407 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10408 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10409 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10410 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10411 [Ben Laurie]
10412
10413 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10414 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10415 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10416 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10417 [Ben Laurie]
10418
10419 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10420 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10421
10422 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10423 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10424 [Steve Henson]
10425
10426 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10427 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10428 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10429 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10430 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10431 (e.g. s_server).
10432 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10433 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10434 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10435 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10436 no way to reconfigure them.
10437 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10438 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10439 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10440 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10441 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10442 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10443
10444 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10445 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10446 recognized by the users.
10447 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10448
10449 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10450 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10451 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10452 already masked variable.
10453 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10454
10455 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10456 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10457
10458 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10459 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10460 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10461 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10462
10463 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10464 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10465 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10466
10467 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10468 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10469 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10470 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10471 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10472 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10473 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10474 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10475 now, too.
10476 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10477
10478 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10479 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10480 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10481
10482 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10483 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10484 config file.
10485 [Steve Henson]
10486
10487 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10488 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10489
10490 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10491 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10492 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10493 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10494 [Ben Laurie]
10495
10496 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10497 [Steve Henson]
10498
10499 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10500 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10501
10502 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10503 [Ben Laurie]
10504
10505 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10506 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10507 [Steve Henson]
10508
10509 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10510 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10511 [Steve Henson]
10512
10513 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10514 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10515 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10516 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10517 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10518 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10519 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10520 Ben Laurie]
10521
10522 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10523 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10524
10525 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10526 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10527 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10528 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10529 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10530
10531 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10532 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10533 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10534 [Steve Henson]
10535
10536 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10537 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10538 an example.
10539 [Steve Henson]
10540
10541 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10542 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10543 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10544
10545 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10546 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10547 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10548 build instructions.
10549 [Steve Henson]
10550
10551 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10552 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10553 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10554 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10555 [Steve Henson]
10556
10557 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10558 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10559 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10560 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10561 [Ben Laurie]
10562
10563 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10564 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10565 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10566 so it wasn't spotted.
10567 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10568
10569 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10570 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10571 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10572 vectors if you have them.
10573 [Ben Laurie]
10574
10575 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10576 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10577 [Ben Laurie]
10578
10579 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10580 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10581 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10582 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10583 If you do a:
10584 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10585 it will update them.
10586 [Steve Henson]
10587
10588 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10589 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10590 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10591 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10592 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10593 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10594 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10595 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10596
10597 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10598 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10599 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10600 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10601 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10602 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10603 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10604 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10605 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10606 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10607
10608 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10609 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10610 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10611 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10612 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10613 [Steve Henson]
10614
10615 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10616 INTEGER code.
10617 [Steve Henson]
10618
10619 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10620 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10621
10622 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10623 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10624
10625 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10626 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10627 [Ben Laurie]
10628
10629 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10630 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10631
10632 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10633 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10634
10635 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10636 [Steve Henson]
10637
10638 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10639 few typos.
10640 [Steve Henson]
10641
10642 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10643 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10644 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10645 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10646
10647 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10648 [Steve Henson]
10649
10650 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10651 [Steve Henson]
10652
10653 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10654 [Steve Henson]
10655
10656 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10657 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10658 [Steve Henson]
10659
10660 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10661 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10662 CA extensions.
10663 [Steve Henson]
10664
10665 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10666 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10667 [Steve Henson]
10668
10669 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10670 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10671 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10672 [Steve Henson]
10673
10674 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10675 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10676 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10677 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10678 properly to be processed.
10679 [Steve Henson]
10680
10681 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10682 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10683 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10684 [Ben Laurie]
10685
10686 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10687 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10688
10689 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10690 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10691 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10692 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10693 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10694 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10695 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10696 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10697 or delete all the .err files.
10698 [Steve Henson]
10699
10700 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10701 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10702 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10703 to regenerate it if needed.
10704 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10705 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10706
10707 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10708 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10709
10710 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10711 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10712 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10713 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10714 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10715 [Steve Henson]
10716
10717 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10718 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10719
10720 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10721 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10722
10723 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10724 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10725 error, but didn't set one).
10726 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10727
10728 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10729 [Ben Laurie]
10730
10731 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10732 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10733 [Steve Henson]
10734
10735 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10736 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10737
10738 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10739 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10740 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10741 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10742 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10743 OID is not part of the table.
10744 [Steve Henson]
10745
10746 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10747 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10748 [Ben Laurie]
10749
10750 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10751 [Ben Laurie]
10752
10753 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10754 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10755 was "1234").
10756 [Steve Henson]
10757
10758 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10759 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10760
10761 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10762 NULL pointers.
10763 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10764
10765 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10766 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10767
10768 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10769 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10770
10771 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10772 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10773
10774 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10775 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10776 [Ben Laurie]
10777
10778 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10779 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10780 [Steve Henson]
10781
10782 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10783 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10784
10785 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10786 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10787
10788 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10789 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10790
10791 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10792 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10793
10794 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10795 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10796 unused in the certificate verification process.
10797 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10798
10799 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10800 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10801 [Steve Henson]
10802
10803 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10804 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10805 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10806
10807 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10808 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10809 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10810 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10811 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10812
10813 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10814 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10815 [Steve Henson]
10816
10817 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10818 [Steve Henson]
10819
10820 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10821 [Paul Sutton]
10822
10823 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10824 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10825
10826 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10827 [Ben Laurie]
10828
10829 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10830 [Ben Laurie]
10831
10832 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10833 [Ben Laurie]
10834
10835 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10836 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10837 other error libraries.
10838 [Steve Henson]
10839
10840 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10841 [Steve Henson]
10842
10843 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
10844 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10845 be read in.
10846 [Steve Henson]
10847
10848 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10849 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10850 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10851 the new set of documentation files.
10852 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10853
10854 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10855 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10856 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10857 number of arguments.
10858 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10859
10860 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10861 [Ben Laurie]
10862
10863 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10864 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10865 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10866
10867 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10868 [Ben Laurie]
10869
10870 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10871 nextstep
10872 ncr-scde
10873 unixware-2.0
10874 unixware-2.0-pentium
10875 sco5-cc.
10876 [Ben Laurie]
10877
10878 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10879 before they are needed.
10880 [Ben Laurie]
10881
10882 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10883 [Ben Laurie]
10884
10885
10886 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10887
10888 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10889 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10890 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10891
10892 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10893 [Paul Sutton]
10894
10895 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10896 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10897 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10898
10899 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10900 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10901 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10902
10903 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10904 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10905 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10906
10907 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10908 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10909
10910 *) Updated the README file.
10911 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10912
10913 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10914 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10915 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10916
10917 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10918 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10919 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10920
10921 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10922 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
10923 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
10924 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
10925 o removed obsolete TODO file
10926 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10927 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10928
10929 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10930 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10931 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10932 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10933 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10934 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10935 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10936
10937 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10938 [Mark J. Cox]
10939
10940 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10941 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10942 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10943 summer 1998.
10944 [The OpenSSL Project]
10945
10946
10947 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
10948
10949 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
10950 [Eric A. Young]
10951
10952 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
10953 [Eric A. Young]
10954
10955 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10956 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10957 [Eric A. Young]
10958
10959 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10960 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10961 available).
10962 [Eric A. Young]
10963
10964 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10965 binary structures
10966 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
10967
10968 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
10969 [Eric A. Young]
10970
10971 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
10972 [Eric A. Young]
10973
10974 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
10975 [Eric A. Young]
10976
10977 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
10978 [Eric A. Young]
10979
10980 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
10981 [Eric A. Young]
10982
10983 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
10984 [Eric A. Young]
10985
10986 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
10987 [Eric A. Young]
10988
10989 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
10990 [Eric A. Young]
10991
10992 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
10993 [Eric A. Young]
10994
10995 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
10996 [Eric A. Young]
10997
10998 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
10999 [Eric A. Young]
11000
11001 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
11002 [Eric A. Young]
11003
11004 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
11005 [Eric A. Young]
11006
11007 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
11008 [Eric A. Young]
