10 Changes between 1.1.1d and 1.1.1e [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) Corrected the documentation of the return values from the EVP_DigestSign*
13 set of functions. The documentation mentioned negative values for some
14 errors, but this was never the case, so the mention of negative values
15 was removed.
16
17 Code that followed the documentation and thereby check with something
18 like 'EVP_DigestSignInit(...) <= 0' will continue to work undisturbed.
19 [Richard Levitte]
20
21 *) Fixed an an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure
22 used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are
23 affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024,
24 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very
25 difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512
26 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would
27 have to re-use the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway.
28 Also applications directly using the low level API BN_mod_exp may be
29 affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
30 (CVE-2019-1551)
31 [Andy Polyakov]
32
33 *) Added a new method to gather entropy on VMS, based on SYS$GET_ENTROPY.
34 The presence of this system service is determined at run-time.
35 [Richard Levitte]
36
37 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
38 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
39 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
40 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
41
42 *) Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just
43 the first value.
44 [Jon Spillett]
45
46 Changes between 1.1.1c and 1.1.1d [10 Sep 2019]
47
48 *) Fixed a fork protection issue. OpenSSL 1.1.1 introduced a rewritten random
49 number generator (RNG). This was intended to include protection in the
50 event of a fork() system call in order to ensure that the parent and child
51 processes did not share the same RNG state. However this protection was not
52 being used in the default case.
53
54 A partial mitigation for this issue is that the output from a high
55 precision timer is mixed into the RNG state so the likelihood of a parent
56 and child process sharing state is significantly reduced.
57
58 If an application already calls OPENSSL_init_crypto() explicitly using
59 OPENSSL_INIT_ATFORK then this problem does not occur at all.
60 (CVE-2019-1549)
61 [Matthias St. Pierre]
62
63 *) For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is
64 used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key
65 or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/
66 `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`.
67 This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains,
68 especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs.
69 By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later
70 serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if
71 internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation.
72 [Nicola Tuveri]
73
74 *) Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
75 this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
76 NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
77 does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
78 (CVE-2019-1547)
79 [Billy Bob Brumley]
80
81 *) Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey.
82 An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the
83 second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second
84 recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct
85 encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be
86 decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is
87 used and the recipient will not notice the attack.
88 As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted
89 key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the
90 certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out.
91 The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
92 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag.
93 (CVE-2019-1563)
94 [Bernd Edlinger]
95
96 *) Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
97 improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
98 /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
99 The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using
100 a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier
101 can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to
102 the desired value. The default identifier is 114.
103 [Paul Dale]
104
105 *) Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this
106 fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that
107 negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections
108 between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this
109 fix will fail if they negotiate EMS.
110 [Matt Caswell]
111
112 *) Use Windows installation paths in the mingw builds
113
114 Mingw isn't a POSIX environment per se, which means that Windows
115 paths should be used for installation.
116 (CVE-2019-1552)
117 [Richard Levitte]
118
119 *) Changed DH_check to accept parameters with order q and 2q subgroups.
120 With order 2q subgroups the bit 0 of the private key is not secret
121 but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the
122 private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key.
123 [Bernd Edlinger]
124
125 *) Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools.
126 [Paul Dale]
127
128 *) Revert the DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
129
130 The DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature added a select() call to wait for the
131 /dev/random device to become readable before reading from the
132 /dev/urandom device.
133
134 It turned out that this change had negative side effects on
135 performance which were not acceptable. After some discussion it
136 was decided to revert this feature and leave it up to the OS
137 resp. the platform maintainer to ensure a proper initialization
138 during early boot time.
139 [Matthias St. Pierre]
140
141 Changes between 1.1.1b and 1.1.1c [28 May 2019]
142
143 *) Add build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
144 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
145 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
146
147 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
148 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
149 [Richard Levitte]
150
151 *) Enable SHA3 pre-hashing for ECDSA and DSA.
152 [Patrick Steuer]
153
154 *) Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
155 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
156 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
157 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
158 [Kurt Roeckx]
159
160 *) Reorganize the manual pages to consistently have RETURN VALUES,
161 EXAMPLES, SEE ALSO and HISTORY come in that order, and adjust
162 util/fix-doc-nits accordingly.
163 [Paul Yang, Joshua Lock]
164
165 *) Add the missing accessor EVP_PKEY_get0_engine()
166 [Matt Caswell]
167
168 *) Have apps like 's_client' and 's_server' output the signature scheme
169 along with other cipher suite parameters when debugging.
170 [Lorinczy Zsigmond]
171
172 *) Make OPENSSL_config() error agnostic again.
173 [Richard Levitte]
174
175 *) Do the error handling in RSA decryption constant time.
176 [Bernd Edlinger]
177
178 *) Prevent over long nonces in ChaCha20-Poly1305.
179
180 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD cipher, and requires a unique nonce input
181 for every encryption operation. RFC 7539 specifies that the nonce value
182 (IV) should be 96 bits (12 bytes). OpenSSL allows a variable nonce length
183 and front pads the nonce with 0 bytes if it is less than 12
184 bytes. However it also incorrectly allows a nonce to be set of up to 16
185 bytes. In this case only the last 12 bytes are significant and any
186 additional leading bytes are ignored.
187
188 It is a requirement of using this cipher that nonce values are
189 unique. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to
190 serious confidentiality and integrity attacks. If an application changes
191 the default nonce length to be longer than 12 bytes and then makes a
192 change to the leading bytes of the nonce expecting the new value to be a
193 new unique nonce then such an application could inadvertently encrypt
194 messages with a reused nonce.
195
196 Additionally the ignored bytes in a long nonce are not covered by the
197 integrity guarantee of this cipher. Any application that relies on the
198 integrity of these ignored leading bytes of a long nonce may be further
199 affected. Any OpenSSL internal use of this cipher, including in SSL/TLS,
200 is safe because no such use sets such a long nonce value. However user
201 applications that use this cipher directly and set a non-default nonce
202 length to be longer than 12 bytes may be vulnerable.
203
204 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th of March 2019 by Joran Dirk
205 Greef of Ronomon.
206 (CVE-2019-1543)
207 [Matt Caswell]
208
209 *) Add DEVRANDOM_WAIT feature for Linux systems
210
211 On older Linux systems where the getrandom() system call is not available,
212 OpenSSL normally uses the /dev/urandom device for seeding its CSPRNG.
213 Contrary to getrandom(), the /dev/urandom device will not block during
214 early boot when the kernel CSPRNG has not been seeded yet.
215
216 To mitigate this known weakness, use select() to wait for /dev/random to
217 become readable before reading from /dev/urandom.
218
219 *) Ensure that SM2 only uses SM3 as digest algorithm
220 [Paul Yang]
221
222 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [26 Feb 2019]
223
224 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
225 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
226 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
227 to affine coordinates.
228 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
229
230 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
231 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
232 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
233 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
234 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
235 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
236 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
237 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
238 applications.
239 [Matt Caswell]
240
241 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
242 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
243 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
244 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
245 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
246 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
247
248 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
249 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
250 [Bernd Edlinger]
251
252 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
253 [Richard Levitte]
254
255 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
256 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
257 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
258 [Richard Levitte]
259
260 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
261
262 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
263
264 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
265 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
266 algorithm to recover the private key.
267
268 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
269 (CVE-2018-0734)
270 [Paul Dale]
271
272 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
273
274 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
275 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
276 algorithm to recover the private key.
277
278 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
279 (CVE-2018-0735)
280 [Paul Dale]
281
282 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
283 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
284 are retained for backwards compatibility.
285 [Antoine Salon]
286
287 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
288 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
289 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
290
291 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
292 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
293 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
294 provided by the application.
295
296 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
297
298 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
299 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
300 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
301 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
302 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
303 of the ClientHello
304 [Benjamin Kaduk]
305
306 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
307 [Jack Lloyd]
308
309 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
310 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
311 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
312 [Patrick Steuer]
313
314 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
315 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
316 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
317 [Richard Levitte]
318
319 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
320 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
321 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
322 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
323 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
324 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
325 to work in projective coordinates.
326 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
327
328 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
329 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
330 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
331 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
332 to 2^-128.
333 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
334
335 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
336 [Kurt Roeckx]
337
338 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
339 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
340 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
341 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
342 [Richard Levitte]
343
344 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
345 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
346 [Andy Polyakov]
347
348 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
349 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
350 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
351 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
352 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
353
354 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
355 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
356 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
357 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
358 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
359 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
360
361 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
362 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
363 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
364 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
365 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
366 [Paul Dale]
367
368 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
369 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
370 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
371 authors.
372 [Matt Caswell]
373
374 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
375 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
376 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
377 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
378 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
379 multi-version installation is managed.
380 [Andy Polyakov]
381
382 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
383 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
384 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
385 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
386 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
387 [Billy Bob Brumley]
388
389 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
390 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
391 chosen point SCA attacks.
392 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
393
394 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
395 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
396 [Matt Caswell]
397
398 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
399 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
400 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
401 [Matt Caswell]
402
403 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
404 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
405 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
406 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
407 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
408 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
409 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
410 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
411 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
412 [Kurt Roeckx]
413
414 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
415 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
416 [Richard Levitte]
417
418 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
419 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
420 [Billy Bob Brumley]
421
422 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
423 binary and prime elliptic curves.
424 [Billy Bob Brumley]
425
426 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
427 constant time fixed point multiplication.
428 [Billy Bob Brumley]
429
430 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
431 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
432 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
433 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
434 ECDH derive operations).
435 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
436 Sohaib ul Hassan]
437
438 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
439 [Rich Salz]
440
441 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
442 randomness from the system.
443 [Matthias St. Pierre]
444
445 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
446 [Richard Levitte]
447
448 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
449 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
450 [Matt Caswell]
451
452 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
453 [Matt Caswell]
454
455 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
456 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
457
458 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
459 [Richard Levitte]
460
461 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
462 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
463 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
464 [Matt Caswell]
465
466 *) Memory allocation failures consistently add an error to the error
467 stack.
468 [Rich Salz]
469
470 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
471 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
472 [Bernd Edlinger]
473
474 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
475 [Matt Caswell]
476
477 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
478 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
479 [Matthias St. Pierre]
480
481 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
482 for the license change).
483 [Rich Salz]
484
485 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
486 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
487 [Matt Caswell]
488
489 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
490 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
491 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
492 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
493 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
494 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
495 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
496 [Matt Caswell]
497
498 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
499 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
500 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
501 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
502 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
503 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
504 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
505 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
506 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
507 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
508 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
509 written to stderr.
510 [Viktor Dukhovni]
511
512 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
513 Mike Hamburg.
514 [Matt Caswell]
515
516 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
517 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
518 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
519 get the search data out of them.
520 [Richard Levitte]
521
522 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
523 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
524 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
525 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
526 [Matt Caswell]
527
528 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
529
530 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
531 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
532 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
533 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
534 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
535 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
536
537 Some of its new features are:
538 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
539 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
540 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
541 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
542 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
543 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
544 operation
545 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
546
547 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
548 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
549 to display all sorts of configuration data.
550 [Richard Levitte]
551
552 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
553 [Richard Levitte]
554
555 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
556 [Paul Dale]
557
558 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
559 now been removed.
560 [Rich Salz]
561
562 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
563 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
564 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
565 debug (or make silent).
566 [Richard Levitte]
567
568 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
569 arguments to config / Configure.
570 [Richard Levitte]
571
572 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
573 [Paul Yang]
574
575 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
576 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
577 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
578 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
579
580 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
581 as documented in RFC6066.
582 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
583 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
584
585 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
586 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
587 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
588 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
589
590 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
591 original author does not agree with the license change.
592 [Rich Salz]
593
594 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
595 [Jon Spillett]
596
597 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
598 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
599 [Rich Salz]
600
601 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
602 without clearing the errors.
603 [Richard Levitte]
604
605 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
606 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
607 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
608 [Rich Salz]
609
610 *) Add SHA3.
611 [Andy Polyakov]
612
613 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
614 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
615 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
616 as a fallback).
617
618 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
619 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
620 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
621 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
622 [Richard Levitte]
623
624 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
625 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
626 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
627 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
628 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
629 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
630 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
631 [Richard Levitte]
632
633 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
634 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
635 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
636 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
637 [Richard Levitte]
638
639 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
640 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
641 error code calls like this:
642
643 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
644
645 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
646 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
647 affect new modules.
648 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
649
650 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
651 [Rich Salz]
652
653 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
654 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
655 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
656 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
657 [Richard Levitte]
658
659 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
660 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
661 than just the call where this user data is passed.
662 [Richard Levitte]
663
664 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
665 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
666 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
667
668 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
669 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
670 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
671 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
672 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
673 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
674 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
675 issues.
676 [Matt Caswell]
677
678 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
679 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
680 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
681 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
682 [Richard Levitte]
683
684 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
685 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
686 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
687
688 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
689 does for RSA, etc.
690 [Richard Levitte]
691
692 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
693 platform rather than 'mingw'.
694 [Richard Levitte]
695
696 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
697 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
698 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
699 certificates and CRLs.
700 [Paul Dale]
701
702 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
703 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
704 [Andy Polyakov]
705
706 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
707 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
708 [Richard Levitte]
709
710 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
711 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
712 which is the minimum version we support.
713 [Richard Levitte]
714
715 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
716 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
717 are no longer allowed.
718 [Emilia Käsper]
719
720 *) Add support for ARIA
721 [Paul Dale]
722
723 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
724 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
725 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
726 using "-servername".
727 [Matt Caswell]
728
729 *) Add support for SipHash
730 [Todd Short]
731
732 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
733 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
734 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
735 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
736 [Matt Caswell]
737
738 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
739 using the algorithm defined in
740 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
741 [Richard Levitte]
742
743 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
744 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
745
746 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
747 [Emilia Käsper]
748
749 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
750 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
751 [Rich Salz]
752
753
754 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
755
756 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
757
758 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
759 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
760 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
761 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
762 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
763
764 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
765 (CVE-2018-0732)
766 [Guido Vranken]
767
768 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
769
770 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
771 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
772 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
773 recover the private key.
774
775 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
776 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
777 (CVE-2018-0737)
778 [Billy Brumley]
779
780 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
781 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
782 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
783 [Richard Levitte]
784
785 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
786 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
787 [Andy Polyakov]
788
789 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
790 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
791 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
792 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
793 to 2^-128.
794 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
795
796 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
797 [Kurt Roeckx]
798
799 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
800 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
801 [Matt Caswell]
802
803 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
804 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
805 [Richard Levitte]
806
807 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
808 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
809 are no longer allowed.
810 [Emilia Käsper]
811
812 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
813
814 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
815 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
816 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
817 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
818 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
819 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
820 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
821 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
822 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
823 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
824 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
825 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
826 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
827 [Matt Caswell]
828
829 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
830
831 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
832
833 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
834 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
835 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
836 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
837 so this is considered safe.
838
839 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
840 project.
841 (CVE-2018-0739)
842 [Matt Caswell]
843
844 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
845
846 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
847 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
848 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
849 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
850 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
851 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
852
853 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
854 (IBM).
855 (CVE-2018-0733)
856 [Andy Polyakov]
857
858 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
859 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
860 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
861 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
862 [Richard Levitte]
863
864 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
865
866 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
867 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
868 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
869 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
870 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
871
872 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
873 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
874 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
875 [Matt Caswell]
876
877 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
878 exist.
879 [Rich Salz]
880
881 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
882
883 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
884 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
885 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
886 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
887 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
888 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
889 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
890 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
891 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
892 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
893
894 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
895 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
896
897 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
898 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
899 (CVE-2017-3738)
900 [Andy Polyakov]
901
902 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
903
904 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
905
906 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
907 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
908 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
909 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
910 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
911 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
912 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
913 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
914 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
915 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
916 key that is shared between multiple clients.
917
918 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
919 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
920
921 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
922 (CVE-2017-3736)
923 [Andy Polyakov]
924
925 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
926
927 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
928 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
929 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
930
931 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
932 (CVE-2017-3735)
933 [Rich Salz]
934
935 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
936
937 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
938 platform rather than 'mingw'.
939 [Richard Levitte]
940
941 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
942 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
943 which is the minimum version we support.

945
946 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
947
948 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
949
950 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
951 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
952 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
953 and servers are affected.
954
955 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
956 (CVE-2017-3733)
957 [Matt Caswell]
958
959 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
960
961 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
962
963 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
964 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
965 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
966
967 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
968 (CVE-2017-3731)
969 [Andy Polyakov]
970
971 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
972
973 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
974 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
975 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
976 of Service attack.
977
978 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
979 (CVE-2017-3730)
980 [Matt Caswell]
981
982 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
983
984 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
985 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
986 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
987 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
988 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
989 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
990 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
991 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
992 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
993 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
994 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
995 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
996 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
997
998 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.

1003
1004 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
1005
1006 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
1007 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
1008 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
1009
1010 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
1011 (CVE-2016-7054)
1012 [Richard Levitte]
1013
1014 *) CMS Null dereference
1015
1016 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
1017 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
1018 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
1019 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
1020 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
1021 affected.

1025 [Stephen Henson]
1026
1027 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
1028
1029 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
1030 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
1031 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
1032 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
1033 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
1034 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
1035 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
1036 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
1037 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
1038 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
1039 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
1040 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
1041 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
1042 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
1043
1044 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
1045 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
1046 providing reproducible case.

1048 [Andy Polyakov]
1049
1050 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1051 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
1052 [Richard Levitte]
1053
1054 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1055
1056 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1057
1058 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1059 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1060 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1061 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1062 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1063 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1064
1065 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
1066
1067 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.

1071 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1072
1073 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1074
1075 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1076 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1077 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1078 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1079 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1080 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1081 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

1083 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1084 (CVE-2016-6304)
1085 [Matt Caswell]
1086
1087 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1088
1089 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1090 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1091 Denial Of Service attack.
1092
1093 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1094 (CVE-2016-6305)
1095 [Matt Caswell]
1096
1097 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1098 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1099
1100 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1101 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1102 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1103 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1104 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1105 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1106 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1107 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1108 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1109 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1110 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1111 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1112 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1113 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1114 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1115
1116 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1117 that the connection fails
1118 or
1119 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1120 very little free memory
1121 or
1122 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1123 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1124 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1125 memory to service the multiple requests.
1126
1127 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1128 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1129 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1130 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1131 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.

1135 [Matt Caswell]
1136
1137 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1138 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1139 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1140 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1141 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1142 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1143 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1144 [Andy Polyakov]
1145
1146 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1147
1148 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1149 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1150 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1151 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1152 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1153 non-ASCII password.
1154 [Andy Polyakov]
1155
1156 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1157 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1158 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1159 [Rich Salz]
1160
1161 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1162 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1163 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1164 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1165 [Matt Caswell]
1166
1167 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1168 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1169 success.
1170 [Matt Caswell]
1171
1172 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1173 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1174 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1175 no-ops and deprecated.
1176 [Matt Caswell]
1177
1178 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1179 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1180 were also closed.
1181 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1182
1183 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1184 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1185 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1186 [Rich Salz]
1187
1188 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1189 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1190 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1191 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1192 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1193 and the validity of object reference counter.
1194 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1195
1196 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1197 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1198 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1199 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1200 [Richard Levitte]
1201
1202 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1203 [Richard Levitte]
1204
1205 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1206 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1207 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1208 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1209
1210 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1211
1212 [Richard Levitte]
1213
1214 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1215 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1216 [Steve Henson]
1217
1218 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1219 [Andy Polyakov]
1220
1221 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1222 [Rich Salz]
1223
1224 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1225 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1226 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1227 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1228 name and is used as is.
1229 [Richard Levitte]
1230
1231 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1232 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1233 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1234 [Rich Salz]
1235
1236 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1237 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1238 [Matt Caswell]
1239
1240 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1241 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1242 algorithms.
1243 [Matt Caswell]
1244
1245 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1246 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1247 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1248 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1249 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1250 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1251 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1252 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1253 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1254 [Matt Caswell]
1255
1256 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1257 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1258 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1259 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1260
1261 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1262 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1263 these have been added.
1264 [Matt Caswell]
1265
1266 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1267 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1268 functions for managing these have been added.
1269 [Richard Levitte]
1270
1271 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1272 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1273 these have been added.
1274 [Matt Caswell]
1275
1276 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1277 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1278 have been added.
1279 [Matt Caswell]
1280
1281 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1282 [Matt Caswell]
1283
1284 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1285 [Richard Levitte]
1286
1287 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1288 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1289 [Rich Salz]
1290
1291 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1292 [Richard Levitte]
1293
1294 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1295 [Rich Salz]
1296
1297 *) Add support for HKDF.
1298 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1299
1300 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1301 [Bill Cox]
1302
1303 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1304 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1305 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1306 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1307 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1308 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1309 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1310 [Matt Caswell]
1311
1312 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1313 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1314 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1315 [Catriona Lucey]
1316
1317 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1318 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1319 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1320 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1321 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1322 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1323 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1324
1325 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1326 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1327 [Todd Short]
1328
1329 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1330 [Todd Short]
1331
1332 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1333 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1334 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1335 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1336 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1337 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1338 default cipherlist.
1339 [Emilia Käsper]
1340
1341 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1342 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1343 [Rich Salz]
1344
1345 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1346 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1347 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1348 [Matt Caswell]
1349
1350 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1351 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1352 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1353 implemented by other servers.
1354 [Emilia Käsper]
1355
1356 *) Add X25519 support.
1357 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1358 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1359 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1360 key generation and key derivation.
1361
1362 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1363 X25519(29).
1364 [Steve Henson]
1365
1366 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1367 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1368 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1369 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1370 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1371
1372 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1373 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1374 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1375 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1376 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1377 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1378 that of a valid user.
1379 [Emilia Käsper]
1380
1381 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1382 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1383 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1384 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1385
1386 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1387 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1388
1389 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1390 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1391 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1392 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1393
1394 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1395 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1396 irrelevant.
1397 [Richard Levitte]
1398
1399 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1400 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1401 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1402 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1403 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1404 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1405
1406 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1407 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1408 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1409 [Richard Levitte]
1410
1411 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1412 [Rich Salz]
1413
1414 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1415 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1416 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1417 removed.
1418 [Richard Levitte]
1419
1420 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1421 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1422 old #define's might need to be updated.
1423 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1424
1425 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1426 [Rich Salz]
1427
1428 *) New "unified" build system
1429
1430 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1431 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1432
1433 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1434 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1435 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1436
1437 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1438 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1439 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1440 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1441 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1442
1443 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1444 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1445 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1446 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1447 libraries" in INSTALL.
1448
1449 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1450 [Richard Levitte]
1451
1452 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1453 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1454 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1455 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1456 [Matt Caswell]
1457
1458 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1459 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1460
1461 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1462 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1463 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1464 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1465 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1466 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1467 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1468 have been adapted accordingly.
1469 [Richard Levitte]
1470
1471 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1472 the leading 0-byte.
1473 [Emilia Käsper]
1474
1475 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1476 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1477 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1478 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1479 [Emilia Käsper]
1480
1481 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1482 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1483 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1484 'unsigned char*'.
1485 [Emilia Käsper]
1486
1487 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1488 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1489 [Emilia Käsper]
1490
1491 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1492 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1493 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1494 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1495 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1496 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1497 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1498
1499 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1500 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1501
1502 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1503 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1504 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1505 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1506 Text::Template.
1507
1508 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1509 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1510 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1511 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1512 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1513 %target).
1514 [Richard Levitte]
1515
1516 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1517 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1518 straightforward and less interdependent.
1519
1520 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1521 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1522 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1523
1524 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1525 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1526 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1527 installed.
1528 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1529 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1530 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1531 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1532
1533 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1534 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1535 [Richard Levitte]
1536
1537 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1538 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1539 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1540 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1541 is present).
1542 [Matt Caswell]
1543
1544 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1545 configuring.
1546 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1547
1548 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1549 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1550 before trying to build now.*
1551 [Rich Salz]
1552
1553 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1554 has changed.
1555 [Rich Salz]
1556
1557 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1558
1559 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1560 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1561 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1562 used to authenticate the peer.
1563
1564 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1565 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1566 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1567 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1568 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1569 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1570
1571 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1572 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1573 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1574 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1575 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1576 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1577
1578 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1579 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1580 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1581 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1582 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1583 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1584 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1585 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1586 version.
1587
1588 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1589 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1590 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1591 compile with later releases.
1592
1593 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1594 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1595 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1596 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1597 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1598 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1599
1600 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1601 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1602 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1603 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1604 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1605 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1606 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1607 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1608 [Kurt Roeckx]
1609
1610 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1611 [Andy Polyakov]
1612
1613 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1614 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1615 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1616 ECDSA_SIG format.
1617
1618 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1619 include the ec.h header file instead.
1620 [Steve Henson]
1621
1622 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1623 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1624 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1625 [Kurt Roeckx]
1626
1627 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1628 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1629 were added:
1630
1631 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1632 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1633
1634 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1635 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1636 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1637
1638 Additional changes:
1639 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1640 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1641 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1642 an already created structure.
1643 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1644 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1645 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1646 for deprecated builds.
1647 [Richard Levitte]
1648
1649 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1650 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1651 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1652 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1653 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1654 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1655 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1656 [Matt Caswell]
1657
1658 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1659 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1660 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1661 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1662 [Kurt Roeckx]
1663
1664 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1665 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1666 [Kurt Roeckx]
1667
1668 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1669 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1670 [Kurt Roeckx]
1671
1672 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1673 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1674 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1675 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1676 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1677 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1678 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1679 also been removed.
1680 [Matt Caswell]
1681
1682 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1683 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1684 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1685 [Rich Salz]
1686
1687 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1688 [Rich Salz]
1689
1690 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1691 sureware and ubsec.
1692 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1693
1694 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1695
1696 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1697 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1698
1699 FOO *x;
1700
1701 it must be:
1702
1703 FOO x;
1704
1705 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1706 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1707
1708 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1709 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1710 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1711 SEQUENCE OF.
1712 [Steve Henson]
1713
1714 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1715 [Emilia Käsper]
1716
1717 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1718 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1719 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1720 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1721 [Matt Caswell]
1722
1723 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1724 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1725 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1726 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1727 [Emilia Käsper]
1728
1729 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1730 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1731 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1732
1733 *) New testing framework
1734 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1735 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1736 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1737 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1738 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1739 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1740
1741 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1742
1743 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1744 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1745
1746 [Richard Levitte]
1747
1748 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1749 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1750 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1751 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1752 [Rich Salz]
1753
1754 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1755 return an error
1756 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1757
1758 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1759 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1760
1761 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1762 original RSA_PSK patch.
1763 [Steve Henson]
1764
1765 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1766 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1767 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1768 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1769 [Matt Caswell]
1770
1771 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1772 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1773 [Richard Levitte]
1774
1775 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1776 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1777 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1778 [Emilia Käsper]
1779
1780 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1781 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1782 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1783 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1784 transferred.
1785 [Matt Caswell]
1786
1787 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1788 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1789 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1790 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1791 [Matt Caswell]
1792
1793 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1794 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1795 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1796 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1797 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1798 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1799 [Matt Caswell]
1800
1801 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1802 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1803 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1804 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1805 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1806 header file has been removed.
1807 [Matt Caswell]
1808
1809 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1810 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1811 [Matt Caswell]
1812
1813 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1814 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1815 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1816
1817 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1818 Added a test.
1819 [Rich Salz]
1820
1821 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1822 [Rich Salz]
1823
1824 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1825 sha256
1826 [Rich Salz]
1827
1828 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1829 [Matt Caswell]
1830
1831 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1832 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1833 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1834 [Steve Henson]
1835
1836 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1837 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1838 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1839 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1840 [Matt Caswell]
1841
1842 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1843 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1844 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1845 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1846 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1847 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1848 [Matt Caswell]
1849
1850 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1851 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1852 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1853 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1854 [Matt Caswell]
1855
1856 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1857 compatible client hello.
1858 [Kurt Roeckx]
1859
1860 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1861 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1862 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1863
1864 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1865 [Rich Salz]
1866
1867 *) Removed old DES API.
1868 [Rich Salz]
1869
1870 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1871 Sony NEWS4
1872 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1873 NeXT
1874 SUNOS
1875 MPE/iX
1876 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1877 DGUX
1878 NCR
1879 Tandem
1880 Cray
1881 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1882 [Rich Salz]
1883
1884 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1885 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1886 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1887 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1888 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1889 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1890 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1891 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1892 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1893 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1894 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1895 [Rich Salz]
1896
1897 *) Cleaned up dead code
1898 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1899 [Rich Salz]
1900
1901 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1902 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1903 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1904 [Rich Salz]
1905
1906 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1907 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1908 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1909 [Rich Salz]
1910
1911 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1912 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1913 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1914
1915 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1916 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1917 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1918
1919 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1920 compilation flags.
1921 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1922
1923 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1924 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1925 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1926
1927 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1928 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1929
1930 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1931 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1932 server.
1933
1934 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1935 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1936 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1937 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1938
1939 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1940 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1941 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1942 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1943
1944 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1945 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1946 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1947
1948 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1949 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1950 [Steve Henson]
1951
1952 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
1953
1954 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
1955 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
1956
1957 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
1958 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
1959
1960 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
1961 effect.
1962
1963 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
1964
1965 [Steve Henson]
1966
1967 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1968 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1969 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1970 algorithms and include tests cases.
1971 [Steve Henson]
1972
1973 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
1974 enveloped data.
1975 [Steve Henson]
1976
1977 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1978 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1979 [Steve Henson]
1980
1981 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1982 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1983
1984 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1985 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1986 [Steve Henson]
1987
1988 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1989 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1990 failures.
1991 [Steve Henson]
1992
1993 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1994 sign or verify all in one operation.
1995 [Steve Henson]
1996
1997 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1998 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1999 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
2000 [Steve Henson]
2001
2002 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
2005 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
2006 [Steve Henson]
2007
2008 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
2009 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
2010 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
2011 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
2012 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
2013 [Steve Henson]
2014
2015 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
2016 based on NID.
2017 [Steve Henson]
2018
2019 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
2020 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
2021 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
2022 [Steve Henson]
2023
2024 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
2025 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
2026
2027 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
2028 POST to handle HMAC cases.
2029 [Steve Henson]
2030
2031 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
2032 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
2033 [Steve Henson]
2034
2035 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
2036 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
2037 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2038 [Steve Henson]
2039
2040 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
2041 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
2042 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
2043 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
2044 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
2045 requested amount of entropy.
2046 [Steve Henson]
2047
2048 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2049 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2050 [Steve Henson]
2051
2052 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2053 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2054 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2055 support.
2056 [Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2059 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2060 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2061 [Steve Henson]
2062
2063 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2064 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2065 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2066 will never use XTS mode.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2070 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2071 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2072 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2073 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2074 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2075 [Steve Henson]
2076
2077 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2078 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2079 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2080 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2081 [Steve Henson]
2082
2083 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2084 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2085 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2086 [Steve Henson]
2087
2088 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2089 [Steve Henson]
2090
2091 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2092 [Steve Henson]
2093
2094 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2095 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2096 [Steve Henson]
2097
2098 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2099 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2100 [Steve Henson]
2101
2102 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2103 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2104 [Steve Henson]
2105
2106 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2107 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2108 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2109 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2110 and rename any affected symbols.
2111 [Steve Henson]
2112
2113 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2114 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2115 [Steve Henson]
2116
2117 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2118 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2119 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2120 [Steve Henson]
2121
2122 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2123 [Steve Henson]
2124
2125 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2126 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2127 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2128 [Steve Henson]
2129
2130 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2131 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2132 [Steve Henson]
2133
2134 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2135 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2136 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2137 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2138 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2139 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2140 set before the key.
2141 [Steve Henson]
2142
2143 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2144 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2145 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2146 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2147 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2148 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2149 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2150 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2151 [Steve Henson]
2152
2153 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2154 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2155 [Steve Henson]
2156
2157 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2158
2159 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2160 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2161
2162 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2163 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2164 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2165 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2166 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2167 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2168
2169 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2170 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2171 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2172 security.
2173 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2174
2175 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2176 parameters by name.
2177 [Steve Henson]
2178
2179 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2180 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2181 [Steve Henson]
2182
2183 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2184 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2185 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2186 [Steve Henson]
2187
2188 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2189 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2190 multi-process servers.
2191 [Steve Henson]
2192
2193 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2194 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2195 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2196 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2197 RAND_METHOD structure.
2198 [Steve Henson]
2199
2200 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2201 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2202 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2203 whose return value is often ignored.
2204 [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2207 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2208 validated when establishing a connection.
2209 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]

2211 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2212
2213 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2214
2215 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2216 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2217 AES-NI.
2218
2219 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2220 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2221 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2222 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2223 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2224 bytes.
2225
2226 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2227 (CVE-2016-2107)
2228 [Kurt Roeckx]
2229
2230 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2231
2232 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2233 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2234 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2235 corruption.
2236
2237 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2238 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2239 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2240 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2241 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2242 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2243
2244 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2245 (CVE-2016-2105)
2246 [Matt Caswell]
2247
2248 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2249
2250 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2251 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2252 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2253 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2254 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2255 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2256 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2257 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2258 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2259 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2260 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2261 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2262 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2263 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2264 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2265 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2266
2267 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2268 (CVE-2016-2106)
2269 [Matt Caswell]
2270
2271 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2272
2273 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2274 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2275 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2276
2277 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2278 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2279 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2280 applications are not affected.
2281
2282 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2283 (CVE-2016-2109)
2284 [Stephen Henson]
2285
2286 *) EBCDIC overread
2287
2288 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2289 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2290 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2291
2292 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2293 (CVE-2016-2176)
2294 [Matt Caswell]
2295
2296 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2297 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2298 [Todd Short]
2299
2300 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2301 default.
2302 [Kurt Roeckx]
2303
2304 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2305 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2306 [Kurt Roeckx]
2307
2308 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2309
2310 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2311 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2312 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2313 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2314
2315 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2316 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2317 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2318 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2319 will need to explicitly call either of:
2320
2321 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2322 or
2323 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2324
2325 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2326 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2327 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2328 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2329 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2330 (CVE-2016-0800)
2331 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2332
2333 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2334
2335 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2336 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2337 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2338 considered rare.
2339
2340 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2341 libFuzzer.
2342 (CVE-2016-0705)
2343 [Stephen Henson]
2344
2345 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2346
2347 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2348
2349 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2350 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2351 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2352 is configured.
2353
2354 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2355 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2356 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2357 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2358 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2359 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2360 that of a valid user.
2361 (CVE-2016-0798)
2362 [Emilia Käsper]
2363
2364 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2365
2366 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2367 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2368 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2369 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2370 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2371 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2372 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2373 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2374 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2375 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2376 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2377
2378 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2379 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2380 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2381 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2382 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2383
2384 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2385 (CVE-2016-0797)
2386 [Matt Caswell]
2387
2388 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2389
2390 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2391 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2392 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2393
2394 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2395 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2396 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2397 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2398 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2399 also occur.
2400
2401 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2402 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2403 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2404 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2405 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2406 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2407 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2408 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2409 as command line arguments.
2410
2411 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2412 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2413 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2414
2415 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2416 (CVE-2016-0799)
2417 [Matt Caswell]
2418
2419 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2420
2421 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2422 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2423 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2424 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2425 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2426
2427 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2428 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
2429 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
2430 http://cachebleed.info.
2431 (CVE-2016-0702)
2432 [Andy Polyakov]
2433
2434 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
2435 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2436 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2437 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2438 [Emilia Käsper]
2439
2440 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2441 *) DH small subgroups
2442
2443 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2444 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2445 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2446 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2447 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2448 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2449 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2450 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2451 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2452 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2453
2454 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2455 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2456 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2457 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2458 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2459
2460 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2461 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2462 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2463 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2464
2465 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2466 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.

2468 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
2469 (CVE-2016-0701)
2470 [Matt Caswell]
2471
2472 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2473
2474 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2475 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2476 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2477 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2484 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
2485
2486 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2487
2488 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2489 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2490 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2491 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2492 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2493 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2494 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2495 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2496 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2497 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2498 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2499 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2502 (CVE-2015-3193)
2503 [Andy Polyakov]
2504
2505 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2506
2507 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2508 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2509 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2510 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2511 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2512 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2513 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2514 authentication.
2515
2516 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
2517 (CVE-2015-3194)
2518 [Stephen Henson]
2519
2520 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2521
2522 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2523 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2524 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2525 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2526
2527 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2528 libFuzzer.
2529 (CVE-2015-3195)
2530 [Stephen Henson]
2531
2532 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2533 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2534 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2535 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.

2541
2542 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2543
2544 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2545
2546 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2547 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2548 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2549 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2550 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2551 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2552
2553 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2554 (Google/BoringSSL).

2556
2557 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
2558
2559 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
2560 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2561 restored.

2563
2564 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2565
2566 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2567
2568 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2569 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2570 field.
2571
2572 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2573 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2574 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2575 client authentication enabled.
2576
2577 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2578 (CVE-2015-1788)
2579 [Andy Polyakov]
2580
2581 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2582
2583 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2584 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2585 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2586 time string.
2587
2588 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2589 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2590 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2591 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2592 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2593 callbacks.
2594
2595 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2596 independently by Hanno Böck.
2597 (CVE-2015-1789)
2598 [Emilia Käsper]
2599
2600 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2601
2602 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2603 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2604 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2605
2606 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2607 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2608 servers are not affected.

2611 (CVE-2015-1790)
2612 [Emilia Käsper]
2613
2614 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
2615
2616 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
2617 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
2618 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
2619 the CMS code.
2620 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.

2622 [Stephen Henson]
2623
2624 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
2625
2626 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
2627 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
2628 a double free of the ticket data.
2629 (CVE-2015-1791)
2630 [Matt Caswell]
2631

2637 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
2638
2639 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
2640
2641 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
2642 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
2643 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
2644
2645 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
2646 University.
2647 (CVE-2015-0291)
2648 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2649
2650 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2651
2652 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2653 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2654 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2655 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2656 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2657 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2658 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2659 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2660
2661 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2662 (CVE-2015-0290)
2663 [Matt Caswell]
2664
2665 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2666
2667 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2668 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2669 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2670 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2671 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2672 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2673 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2674 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2675 server.
2676
2677 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
2678 (CVE-2015-0207)
2679 [Matt Caswell]
2680
2681 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2682
2683 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2684 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2685 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2686 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2687 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2688 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2689 (CVE-2015-0286)
2690 [Stephen Henson]
2691
2692 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2693
2694 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2695 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2696 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2697 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2698 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2699 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2700 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2701
2702 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
2703 (CVE-2015-0208)
2704 [Stephen Henson]
2705
2706 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2707
2708 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2709 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2710 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2711
2712 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2713 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2714 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
2715 not affected.
2716 (CVE-2015-0287)
2717 [Stephen Henson]
2718
2719 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
2720
2721 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
2722 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
2723 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2724
2725 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
2726 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
2727 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
2728
2729 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2730 (CVE-2015-0289)
2731 [Emilia Käsper]
2732
2733 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
2734
2735 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
2736 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
2737 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
2738
2739 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
2740 (OpenSSL development team).
2741 (CVE-2015-0293)
2742 [Emilia Käsper]
2743
2744 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
2745
2746 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
2747 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
2748 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
2749 (CVE-2015-1787)
2750 [Matt Caswell]
2751
2752 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2753
2754 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2755 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2756 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2757 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2758 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2759 SSL_client_methodv23)
2760 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2761 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2762
2763 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2764 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2765 output may be predictable.
2766
2767 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2768 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2769
2770 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
2771 (CVE-2015-0285)
2772 [Matt Caswell]
2773
2774 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2775
2776 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2777 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2778 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2779 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2780 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2781 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2782
2783 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
2784 commit 517073cd4b.

2786 [Matt Caswell]
2787
2788 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
2789
2790 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
2791 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
2792
2793 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.

2799
2800 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
2801
2802 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2803 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2804 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2805 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2806 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2807 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
2808 [Andy Polyakov]
2809
2810 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
2811 (other platforms pending).
2812 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
2813
2814 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
2815 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
2816 [Rob Stradling]
2817
2818 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2819 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2820 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2821 [Bodo Moeller]
2822
2823 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2824 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2825 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2826 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2827 [Andy Polyakov]
2828
2829 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2830 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2831
2832 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2833 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
2834 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
2835 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
2836 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
2837
2838 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
2839 [Andy Polyakov]
2840
2841 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2842 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
2843 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
2844 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
2845
2846 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
2847 RSAZ.
2848 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
2849
2850 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
2851 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
2852 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2853 for TLS encrypt.
2854
2855 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2856 [Andy Polyakov]
2857
2858 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2859 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2860 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2861 [Steve Henson]
2862
2863 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2864 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2865 [Steve Henson]
2866
2867 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2868 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2869 [Steve Henson]
2870
2871 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2872 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2873 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2874 algorithms and include tests cases.
2875 [Steve Henson]
2876
2877 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
2878 structure.
2879 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
2880
2881 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2882 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2883 [Steve Henson]
2884
2885 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2886 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2887 summary of the connection parameters.
2888 [Steve Henson]
2889
2890 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2891 of connection parameters.
2892 [Steve Henson]
2893
2894 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2895 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2896
2897 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2898 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2899 [Steve Henson]
2900
2901 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2902 [Steve Henson]
2903
2904 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2905 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2906 [Steve Henson]
2907
2908 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2909 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2910 [Steve Henson]
2911
2912 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2913 certificates.
2914 [Steve Henson]
2915
2916 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2917 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2918 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2919 [Steve Henson]
2920
2921 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2922 [Steve Henson]
2923
2924 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2925 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2926 [Steve Henson]
2927
2928 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2929 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
2930 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
2931 tracing.
2932 [Steve Henson]
2933
2934 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
2935 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
2936 [Steve Henson]
2937
2938 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
2939 OID NID.
2940 [Steve Henson]
2941
2942 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
2943 client to OpenSSL.
2944 [Steve Henson]
2945
2946 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
2947 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
2948 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
2949 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
2950 [Steve Henson]
2951
2952 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
2953 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
2954 [Steve Henson]
2955
2956 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
2957 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
2958 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
2959 comparison.
2960 [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
2963 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
2964 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
2965 use the certificate.
2966 [Steve Henson]
2967
2968 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
2969 [Steve Henson]
2970
2971 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
2972 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
2973 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
2974 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
2975 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
2976 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
2977 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
2978
2979 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
2980 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2981
2982 [Steve Henson]
2983
2984 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2985 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2986 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2987 [Steve Henson]
2988
2989 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2990 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2991 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2992 supported signature algorithms.
2993 [Steve Henson]
2994
2995 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2996 [Steve Henson]
2997
2998 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2999 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
3000 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
3001 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
3002 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
3003 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
3004 certificate and specify the whole chain.
3005 [Steve Henson]
3006
3007 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
3008 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
3009 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
3010 to have similar checks in it.
3011
3012 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
3013 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
3014 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
3015 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
3016 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
3017 [Steve Henson]
3018
3019 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
3020 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
3021 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
3022 shared signature algorithms.
3023 [Steve Henson]
3024
3025 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
3026 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
3027 to support them.
3028 [Steve Henson]
3029
3030 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
3031 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
3032 it couldn't be removed.
3033 [Steve Henson]
3034
3035 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
3036 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
3037 [Steve Henson]
3038
3039 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
3040 functions. Add manual page.
3041 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
3042
3043 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
3044 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
3045 a certificate.
3046 [Steve Henson]
3047
3048 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3049 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3050
3051 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3052 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3053 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3054 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3055 utility) or reject.
3056 [Steve Henson]
3057
3058 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3059 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3060 [Steve Henson]
3061
3062 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3063 platform support for Linux and Android.
3064 [Andy Polyakov]
3065
3066 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3067 [Andy Polyakov]
3068
3069 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3070 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3071 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3072 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3073 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3074 [Steve Henson]
3075
3076 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3077 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3078 the new parameter format automatically.
3079 [Steve Henson]
3080
3081 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3082 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3083 [Steve Henson]
3084
3085 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3086 [Steve Henson]
3087
3088 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3089 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3090 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3091 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3092 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3093 [Steve Henson]
3094
3095 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3096 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3097 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3098 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3099 to set list of supported curves.
3100 [Steve Henson]
3101
3102 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3103 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3104 to print out received values.
3105 [Steve Henson]
3106
3107 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3108 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3109 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3110 [Steve Henson]
3111
3112 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3113 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3114 [Steve Henson]
3115
3116 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3117 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3118 [Steve Henson]
3119
3120 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3121 certificates.
3122 [Steve Henson]
3123
3124 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3125 the certificate.
3126 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3127 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3128 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3129
3130 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3131
3132 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3133 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3134
3135 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3136
3137 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3138 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3139 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3140 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3141 (CVE-2014-3571)
3142 [Steve Henson]
3143
3144 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3145 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3146 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3147 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3148 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3149 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3150 (CVE-2015-0206)
3151 [Matt Caswell]
3152
3153 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3154 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3155 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3156 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3157 (CVE-2014-3569)
3158 [Kurt Roeckx]
3159
3160 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3161 ECDH ciphersuites.
3162
3163 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3164 reporting this issue.
3165 (CVE-2014-3572)
3166 [Steve Henson]
3167
3168 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3169 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3170 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3171 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3172 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3173 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3174 (CVE-2015-0204)
3175 [Steve Henson]
3176
3177 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3178 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3179 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3180 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3181 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3182 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3183 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3184 this issue.
3185 (CVE-2015-0205)
3186 [Steve Henson]
3187
3188 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3189 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3190
3191 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3192 and can vary with the CTX.
3193 [Adam Langley]
3194
3195 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3196
3197 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3198 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3199 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3200 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3201 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3202
3203 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3204
3205 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3206 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3207
3208 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3209
3210 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3211 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3212 errors for some broken certificates.
3213
3214 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3215
3216 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3217
3218 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3219 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3220
3221 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3222 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3223 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3224 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3225
3226 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3227 of the OpenSSL core team.
3228
3229 (CVE-2014-8275)
3230 [Steve Henson]
3231
3232 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3233 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3234 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3235 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3236 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3237 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3238 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3239 the OpenSSL core team.
3240 (CVE-2014-3570)
3241 [Andy Polyakov]
3242
3243 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3244 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3245 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3246 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3247 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3248
3249 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3250 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3251 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3252 [Emilia Käsper]
3253
3254 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3255 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3256 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3257 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3258 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3259
3260 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3261 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3262 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3263 [Emilia Käsper]
3264
3265 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3266
3267 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3268
3269 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3270 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3271 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3272 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3273 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3274 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3275 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3276
3277 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3278 (CVE-2014-3513)
3279 [OpenSSL team]
3280
3281 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3282
3283 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3284 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3285 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3286 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3287 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3288 attack.
3289 (CVE-2014-3567)
3290 [Steve Henson]
3291
3292 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3293
3294 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3295 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3296 configured to send them.
3297 (CVE-2014-3568)
3298 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3299
3300 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3301 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3302 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3303 (CVE-2014-3566)
3304 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3305
3306 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3307
3308 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3309 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3310 DigestInfo structures.
3311
3312 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3313
3314 [Steve Henson]
3315
3316 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3317
3318 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3319 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3320 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3321
3322 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3323 Group for discovering this issue.
3324 (CVE-2014-3512)
3325 [Steve Henson]
3326
3327 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3328 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3329 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3330 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3331 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3332
3333 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3334 researching this issue.
3335 (CVE-2014-3511)
3336 [David Benjamin]
3337
3338 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3339 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3340 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3341 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3342
3343 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3344 issue.
3345 (CVE-2014-3510)
3346 [Emilia Käsper]
3347
3348 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3349 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3350 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3351 (CVE-2014-3507)
3352 [Adam Langley]
3353
3354 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3355 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3356 Denial of Service attack.
3357 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3358 (CVE-2014-3506)
3359 [Adam Langley]
3360
3361 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3362 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3363 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3364 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3365 this issue.
3366 (CVE-2014-3505)
3367 [Adam Langley]
3368
3369 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3370 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3371 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3372
3373 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3374 issue.
3375 (CVE-2014-3509)
3376 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3377
3378 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3379 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3380 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3381 Denial of Service attack.
3382
3383 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3384 discovering and researching this issue.
3385 (CVE-2014-5139)
3386 [Steve Henson]
3387
3388 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3389 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3390 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3391 output to the attacker.
3392
3393 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3394 (CVE-2014-3508)
3395 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3396
3397 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3398 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3399 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3400 [Bodo Moeller]
3401
3402 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3403
3404 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3405 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3406 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3407
3408 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3409 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3410 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3411
3412 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3413 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3414 in a DoS attack.
3415
3416 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3417 (CVE-2014-0221)
3418 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3419
3420 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3421 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3422 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3423 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3424
3425 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3426 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3427
3428 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3429 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3430
3431 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3432 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3433 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3436 compilation flags.
3437 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3438
3439 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3440 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3441 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3442
3443 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3444 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3445
3446 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3447
3448 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3449 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3450 server.
3451
3452 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3453 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3454 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3455 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3456
3457 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3458 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3459 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3460 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3461
3462 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3463 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3464 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3465
3466 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3467
3468 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3469 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3470 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3471 is at least 512 bytes long.

3475 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3476
3477 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3478 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3479 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3480 (CVE-2013-4353)
3481
3482 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3483 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3484 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3485 [Steve Henson]
3486
3487 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3488 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3489 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3490 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3491 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3492 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3493 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3494
3495 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3496
3497 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3498 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3499 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3500
3501 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3502
3503 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3504
3505 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3506 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3507 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3508
3509 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3510 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3511 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3512 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3513 (CVE-2013-0169)
3514 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3515
3516 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3517 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3518 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3519 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3520 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3521 (CVE-2012-2686)
3522 [Adam Langley]
3523
3524 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3525 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3526 [Steve Henson]
3527
3528 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3529 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3530
3531 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3532 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3533 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3534 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3535 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3536
3537 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3538 [Steve Henson]
3539
3540 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3541 if renegotiating.
3542 [Steve Henson]
3543
3544 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3545
3546 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3547 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3548
3549 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3550 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3551 (CVE-2012-2333)
3552 [Steve Henson]
3553
3554 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3555 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3556 [Steve Henson]
3557
3558 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3559 approved.
3560 [Steve Henson]
3561
3562 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3563
3564 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3565 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3566 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3567 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3568 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3569 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3570 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3571 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3572 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3573 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3574 [Steve Henson]
3575
3576 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3577 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3578 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3579 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3580 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3581 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3582 client side.
3583 [Andy Polyakov]
3584
3585 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3586
3587 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3588 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3589 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3590
3591 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3592 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3593 (CVE-2012-2110)
3594 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3595
3596 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3597 [Adam Langley]
3598
3599 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3600 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3601
3602 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3603 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3604 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3605 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3606 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3607 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3608 Most broken servers should now work.
3609 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3610 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3611 [Steve Henson]
3612
3613 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3614 [Andy Polyakov]
3615
3616 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3617
3618 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3619 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3620 [Steve Henson]
3621
3622 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3623 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3624 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3625 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3626 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3627 [Steve Henson]
3628
3629 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3630 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3631 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3632 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3633 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3634 [Steve Henson]
3635
3636 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3637 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3638
3639 *) Add support for SCTP.
3640 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3641
3642 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3643 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3644
3645 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3646
3647 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3648 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3649 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3650 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3651 - s390x: z196 support;
3652 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3653
3654 [Andy Polyakov]
3655
3656 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3657 (removal of unnecessary code)
3658 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3659
3660 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3661 [Eric Rescorla]
3662
3663 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3664 [Eric Rescorla]
3665
3666 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3667 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3668 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3669 by Google.
3670 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3671
3672 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3673 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3674 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3675 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3676 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3677
3678 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3679 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3680 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3681
3682 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3683 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3684 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3685
3686 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3687 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3688 implementations).
3689 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3690
3691 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
3692 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3693 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3694 [Steve Henson]
3695
3696 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3697 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3698 particular PSS.
3699 [Steve Henson]
3700
3701 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3702 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3703 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3704 [Steve Henson]
3705
3706 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3707 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3708 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3709 the appropriate parameters.
3710 [Steve Henson]
3711
3712 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3713 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3714 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3715 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3716 against a number of sample certificates.
3717 [Steve Henson]
3718
3719 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3720 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3721
3722 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3723 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3724
3725 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3726 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3727 parameters r, s.
3728 [Steve Henson]
3729
3730 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3731 RFC3211.
3732 [Steve Henson]
3733
3734 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3735 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3736 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3737 password based CMS).
3738 [Steve Henson]
3739
3740 *) Session-handling fixes:
3741 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3742 but also support Session Tickets.
3743 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3744 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3745 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3746 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3747 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3748 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3749
3750 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3751 [Bodo Moeller]
3752
3753 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3754
3755 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3756 [Andy Polyakov]
3757
3758 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3759 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3760 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3761 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3762 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3763 [Steve Henson]
3764
3765 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3766 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3767 [Steve Henson]
3768
3769 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3770 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3771 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3772 [Steve Henson]
3773
3774 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3775 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3776 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3777 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
3780 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3781 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3782 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3783 [Steve Henson]
3784
3785 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3786 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3787
3788 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3789 [Steve Henson]
3790
3791 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3792 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3793 [Steve Henson]
3794
3795 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3796 [Steve Henson]
3797
3798 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3799 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3800 [Steve Henson]
3801
3802 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3803 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3804 [Steve Henson]
3805
3806 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3807 [Steve Henson]
3808
3809 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3810 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3811 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3812 [Steve Henson]
3813
3814 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3815 [Steve Henson]
3816
3817 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3818 [Steve Henson]
3819
3820 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3821 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3822 [Steve Henson]
3823
3824 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3825 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3826 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3827 [Steve Henson]
3828
3829 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3830 [Steve Henson]
3831
3832 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3833 and enable MD5.
3834 [Steve Henson]
3835
3836 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3837 FIPS modules versions.
3838 [Steve Henson]
3839
3840 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3841 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3842 until after the certificate request message is received.
3843 [Steve Henson]
3844
3845 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3846 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3847 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3848 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3849 [Steve Henson]
3850
3851 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3852 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3853 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3854 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3855 [Steve Henson]
3856
3857 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3858 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3859 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3860 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3861 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3862 and version checking.
3863 [Steve Henson]
3864
3865 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3866 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3867 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3868 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3869 [Steve Henson]
3870
3871 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3872 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3873 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3874 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3875 Ben Laurie]
3876
3877 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3878 [Steve Henson]
3879
3880 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3881 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3882 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3883
3884 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3885 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3886 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3887 [Steve Henson]
3888
3889 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3890 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3891
3892 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3893 a few changes are required:
3894
3895 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3896 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3897 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3898 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3899 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3900 [Steve Henson]
3901
3902 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3903
3904 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3905 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3906 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3907 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3908 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3909 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3910 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3911 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3912 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3913 [Steve Henson]
3914
3915 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3916 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3917 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3918 [Steve Henson]
3919
3920 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3921
3922 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3923 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3924 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3925 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3926 [Antonio Martin]
3927
3928 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3929
3930 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
3931 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
3932 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
3933 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
3934 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
3935 paper describing this attack can be found at:
3936 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
3937 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3938 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3939 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
3940 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
3941 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
3942 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
3943
3944 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
3945 (CVE-2011-4576)
3946 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3947
3948 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
3949 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
3950 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
3951 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3952
3953 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
3954 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
3955
3956 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
3957 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
3958 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
3959 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3960
3961 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3962 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3963
3964 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
3965 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3966
3967 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
3968 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3969
3970 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
3971 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
3972 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3973
3974 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
3975 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
3976 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
3977
3978 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
3979 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
3980 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
3981 the last update always remained unused).
3982 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3983
3984 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3985 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3986
3987 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3988
3989 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3990 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3991 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3992
3993 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3994 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3995 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3996
3997 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3998 [Bodo Moeller]
3999
4000 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
4001 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
4002 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
4003 [Steve Henson]
4004
4005 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
4006 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
4007
4008 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
4009
4010 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
4011
4012 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
4013
4014 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
4015 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4016
4017 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
4018 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
4019 ambiguous.
4020 [Steve Henson]
4021
4022 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
4023
4024 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
4025 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
4026 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
4027 [Steve Henson]
4028
4029 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
4030 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
4031 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
4032 [Ben Laurie]
4033
4034 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
4035
4036 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
4037 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
4038 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
4039 [Steve Henson]
4040
4041 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
4042 a DLL.
4043 [Steve Henson]
4044
4045 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
4046
4047 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
4048 (CVE-2010-1633)
4049 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4050
4051 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4052
4053 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4054 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4055 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4056 [Steve Henson]
4057
4058 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4059 [Steve Henson]
4060
4061 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4062 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4063 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4064
4065 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4066 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4067 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4068 [Steve Henson]
4069
4070 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4071 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4072 [Steve Henson]
4073
4074 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4075 some responders need this.
4076 [Steve Henson]
4077
4078 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4079 correctly.
4080 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4081
4082 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4083 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4084 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4085 [Steve Henson]
4086
4087 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4088 [Steve Henson]
4089
4090 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4091 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4092 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4093 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4094 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4095 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4096 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4097 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4098 [Steve Henson]
4099
4100 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4101 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4102 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4103 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4104
4105 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4106 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4107
4108 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4109 be used on C++.
4110 [Steve Henson]
4111
4112 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4113 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4114 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4115 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4116 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4117 attempting to work them out.
4118 [Steve Henson]
4119
4120 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4121 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4122 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4123 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4124 [Steve Henson]
4125
4126 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4127 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4128 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4129 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4130 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4131 [Steve Henson]
4132
4133 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4134 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4135 you can do:
4136
4137 openssl sha256 foo
4138
4139 as well as:
4140
4141 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4142
4143 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4144
4145 [Steve Henson]
4146
4147 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4148 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4149
4150 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4151 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4152
4153 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4154 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4155 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4156 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4157 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4158 [Steve Henson]
4159
4160 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4161 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4162 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4163 [Steve Henson]
4164
4165 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4166 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4170 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4171
4172 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4173 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4174 [Steve Henson]
4175
4176 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4177 [Ben Laurie]
4178
4179 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4180 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4181 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4182 CONF_VALUE.
4183 [Ben Laurie]
4184
4185 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4186 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4187 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4188 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4189 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4190 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4191 [Steve Henson]
4192
4193 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4194 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4195
4196 This work was sponsored by Google.
4197 [Steve Henson]
4198
4199 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4200 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4201 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4202 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4203 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4204 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4205 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4206 default.
4207
4208 This work was sponsored by Google.
4209 [Steve Henson]
4210
4211 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4212
4213 This work was sponsored by Google.
4214 [Steve Henson]
4215
4216 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4217 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4218 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4219 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4220
4221 This work was sponsored by Google.
4222 [Steve Henson]
4223
4224 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4225 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4226 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4227 CRL functionality in future.
4228
4229 This work was sponsored by Google.
4230 [Steve Henson]
4231
4232 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4233
4234 This work was sponsored by Google.
4235 [Steve Henson]
4236
4237 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4238 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4239
4240 This work was sponsored by Google.
4241 [Steve Henson]
4242
4243 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4244 and URI types are currently supported.
4245
4246 This work was sponsored by Google.
4247 [Steve Henson]
4248
4249 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4250 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4251 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4252 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4253 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4254 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4255 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4256 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4257
4258 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4259 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4260 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4261
4262 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4263 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4264 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4265 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4266
4267 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4268 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4269 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4270 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4271 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4272 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4273 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4274 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4275 of &errno.)
4276 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4277
4278 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4279 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4280 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4281
4282 This work was sponsored by Google.
4283 [Steve Henson]
4284
4285 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4286 [Ben Laurie]
4287
4288 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4289 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4290 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4291 [Ben Laurie]
4292
4293 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4294 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4295 [Nick Mathewson]
4296
4297 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4298 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4299 [Ben Laurie]
4300
4301 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4302 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4303 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4304 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4305 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4306 content types and variants.
4307 [Steve Henson]
4308
4309 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4310 [Steve Henson]
4311
4312 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4313 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4314 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4315 files from the associated perl scripts.
4316 [Steve Henson]
4317
4318 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4319 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4320 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4321
4322 *) s390x assembler pack.
4323 [Andy Polyakov]
4324
4325 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4326 "family."
4327 [Andy Polyakov]
4328
4329 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4330 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4331 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4332 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4333 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4334 to use. For example, specify an option
4335
4336 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4337
4338 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4339 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4340 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4341 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4342 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4343 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4344
4345 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4346 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4347 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4348 return non-zero for success.
4349
4350 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4351 by using
4352
4353 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4354 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4355
4356 where
4357
4358 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4359 void *arg;
4360
4361 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4362 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4363 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4364 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4365 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4366 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4367 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4368 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4369 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4370
4371 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4372 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4373 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4374 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4375 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4376 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4377
4378 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4379 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4380 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4381 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4382 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4383 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4384
4385 [Bodo Moeller]
4386
4387 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4388 MAC.
4389
4390 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4391
4392 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4393 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4394 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4395 supported.
4396
4397 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4398 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4399 SSL_SESSION.
4400
4401 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4402 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4403 with no application modification.
4404
4405 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4406 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4407
4408 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4409 or server extensions to be examined.
4410
4411 This work was sponsored by Google.
4412 [Steve Henson]
4413
4414 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4415 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4416 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4417
4418 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4419 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4420 ciphersuite support.
4421 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4422
4423 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4424 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4425 to output in BER and PEM format.
4426 [Steve Henson]
4427
4428 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4429 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4430 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4431 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4432 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4433 [Steve Henson]
4434
4435 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4436 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4437 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4438 utility.
4439 [Steve Henson]
4440
4441 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4442 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4443 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4444 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4445 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4446 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4447 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4448 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4449 enabled again.
4450
4451 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4452 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4453 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4454 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4455
4456 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4457 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4458 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4459 the default order.
4460 [Bodo Moeller]
4461
4462 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4463 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4464 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4465 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4466 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4467 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4468 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4469 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4470 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4471
4472 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4473 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4474 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4475 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4476 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4477 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4478 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4479 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4480 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4481 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4482 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4483 kinds of kludges.
4484
4485 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4486 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4487 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4488
4489 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4490 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4491 "CAMELLIA256".
4492 [Bodo Moeller]
4493
4494 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4495 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4496 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4497 [Nils Larsch]
4498
4499 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4500 it yet and it is largely untested.
4501 [Steve Henson]
4502
4503 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4504 [Nils Larsch]
4505
4506 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4507 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4508 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4509 [Steve Henson]
4510
4511 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4512 [Andy Polyakov]
4513
4514 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4515 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4516 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4517 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4518 [Steve Henson]
4519
4520 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4521 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4522 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4523 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4524 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4525 [Steve Henson]
4526
4527 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4528 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4529 [Cryptocom]
4530
4531 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4532 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4533 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4534 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4535 [Steve Henson]
4536
4537 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4538 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4539 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4540 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4541 [Steve Henson]
4542
4543 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4544 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4545 [Steve Henson]
4546
4547 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4548 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4549 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4550 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4551 [Steve Henson]
4552
4553 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4554 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4555 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4556 [Steve Henson]
4557
4558 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4559 utility.
4560 [Steve Henson]
4561
4562 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4563 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4564 [Steve Henson]
4565
4566 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4567 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4568 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4569 if necessary.
4570 [Steve Henson]
4571
4572 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4573 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4574 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4575 [Steve Henson]
4576
4577 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4578 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4579 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4580 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4581 [Steve Henson]
4582
4583 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4584 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4585 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4586 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4587 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4588 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4589 [Douglas Stebila]
4590
4591 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4592 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4593 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4594 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4595 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4596
4597 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4598 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4599 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4600 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4601 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4602 protocol).
4603
4604 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4605 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4606 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4607 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4608
4609 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4610 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4611 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4612 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4613 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4614
4615 aECDH - ECDH cert
4616 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4617 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4618
4619 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4620 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4621
4622 [Bodo Moeller]
4623
4624 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4625 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4626 [Steve Henson]
4627
4628 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4629 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4630 [Steve Henson]
4631
4632 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4633 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4634 functional reference processing.
4635 [Steve Henson]
4636
4637 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4638 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4639 process.
4640 [Steve Henson]
4641
4642 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4643 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4644 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4645 [Steve Henson]
4646
4647 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4648 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4649 application to support multiple signers.
4650 [Steve Henson]
4651
4652 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4653 digest MAC.
4654 [Steve Henson]
4655
4656 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4657 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4658 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4659 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4660 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4661 [Steve Henson]
4662
4663 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4664 new API.
4665 [Steve Henson]
4666
4667 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4668 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4669 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4670 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4671 a no op.
4672 [Steve Henson]
4673
4674 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4675 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4676 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4677 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4678 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4679 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4680 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4681 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4682 [Steve Henson]
4683
4684 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4685 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4686 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4687 between digests and public key types.
4688 [Steve Henson]
4689
4690 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4691 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4692 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4693 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4694 [Steve Henson]
4695
4696 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4697 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4698 key ASN1 method.
4699 [Steve Henson]
4700
4701 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4702 [Steve Henson]
4703
4704 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4705 pkeyutl.
4706 [Steve Henson]
4707
4708 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4709 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4710 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4711 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4712 pkey, genpkey.
4713 [Steve Henson]
4714
4715 *) BeOS support.
4716 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4717
4718 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4719 manual pages.
4720 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4721
4722 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4723 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4724 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4725 functionality for RSA.
4726 [Steve Henson]
4727
4728 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4729 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4730 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4731 [Steve Henson]
4732
4733 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4734 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4735 [Steve Henson]
4736
4737 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4738 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4739 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4740 [Steve Henson]
4741
4742 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4743 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4744 [Douglas Stebila]
4745
4746 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4747 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4751 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4752 type.
4753 [Steve Henson]
4754
4755 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4756 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4757 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4758 structure.
4759 [Steve Henson]
4760
4761 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4762 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4763 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4764 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4765 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4766 of public and private key structures.
4767 [Steve Henson]
4768
4769 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4770 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4771 [Douglas Stebila]
4772
4773 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4774 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4775 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4776
4777 New ciphersuites:
4778 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4779 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4780
4781 New functions:
4782 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4783 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4784 SSL_get_psk_identity
4785 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4786
4787 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4788
4789 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4790 and response verification functionality.
4791 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4792
4793 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4794 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4795 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4796 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4797 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4798 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4799 server_name extension.
4800
4801 New functions (subject to change):
4802
4803 SSL_get_servername()
4804 SSL_get_servername_type()
4805 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4806
4807 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4808
4809 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4810 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4811 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4812 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4813 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4814
4815 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4816
4817 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4818 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4819 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4820 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4821 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4822 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4823 option.
4824
4825 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4826
4827 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4828 [Andy Polyakov]
4829
4830 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4831 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4832 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4833 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4834 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4835 [Andy Polyakov]
4836
4837 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4838 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4839 macro.
4840 [Bodo Moeller]
4841
4842 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4843 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4844 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4845 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4846 [Andy Polyakov]
4847
4848 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4849 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4850 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4851 using the maximum available value.
4852 [Steve Henson]
4853
4854 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4855 in addition to the text details.
4856 [Bodo Moeller]
4857
4858 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4859 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4860 handle several customised structures at all.
4861 [Steve Henson]
4862
4863 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4864 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4865 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4866 [Steve Henson]
4867
4868 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4869 [Steve Henson]
4870
4871 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4872 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4873 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4874 [Steve Henson]
4875
4876 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4877 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4878 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4879 [Nils Larsch]
4880
4881 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4882 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4883 all fields.
4884 [Steve Henson]
4885
4886 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4887 [Steve Henson]
4888
4889 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4890 [NTT]
4891
4892 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4893
4894 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4895 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4896 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4897 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4898 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4899 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4900 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4901 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4902
4903 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4904 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4905 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4906
4907 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4908
4909 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4910 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4911
4912 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4913 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4914 [Bodo Moeller]
4915
4916 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4917 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4918 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4919 [Steve Henson]
4920
4921 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4922 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4923 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4924 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4925 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4926 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4927 [Steve Henson]
4928
4929 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
4930 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
4931 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
4932 [Steve Henson]
4933
4934 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
4935 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
4936 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
4937 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
4938 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
4939 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
4940 CVE-2009-4355.
4941 [Steve Henson]
4942
4943 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
4944 change when encrypting or decrypting.
4945 [Bodo Moeller]
4946
4947 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
4948 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
4949 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
4950 [Steve Henson]
4951
4952 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
4953 [Steve Henson]
4954
4955 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
4956 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
4957 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
4958 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
4959 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
4960 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
4961 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
4962 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
4963 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
4964 [Steve Henson]
4965
4966 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
4967 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
4968 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
4969 [Steve Henson]
4970
4971 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
4972 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
4973 [Steve Henson]
4974
4975 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
4976 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
4977 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
4978 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
4979 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
4980 know what you are doing.
4981 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
4982
4983 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4984 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4985 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4986 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4987 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4988 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4989 the handshake.
4990 [Steve Henson]
4991
4992 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4993 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4994 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4995 correctly.
4996 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4997
4998 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4999 warnings in other configurations.
5000 [Steve Henson]
5001
5002 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
5003 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
5004 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
5005 systems need.
5006 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
5007
5008 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
5009 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
5010 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
5011
5012 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
5013 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
5014 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
5015 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
5016 [Steve Henson]
5017
5018 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
5019 and restored.
5020 [Steve Henson]
5021
5022 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
5023 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
5024 clash.
5025 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
5026
5027 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
5028 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
5029 other than a simple chain.
5030 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
5031
5032 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
5033 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
5034 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
5035 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
5036 [Steve Henson]
5037
5038 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
5039 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
5040 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
5041 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
5042 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
5043 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
5044 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
5045 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
5046 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5047
5048 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5049 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5050 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5051 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5052 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5053 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5054 (CVE-2009-1377)
5055 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5056
5057 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5058 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5059 [Daniel Mentz]
5060
5061 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5062 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5063
5064 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5065 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5066
5067 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5068
5069 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5070 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5071 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5072 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5073 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5074 you're doing.
5075 [Ben Laurie]
5076
5077 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5078
5079 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5080 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5081 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5082 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5083
5084 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5085 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5086 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5087 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5088
5089 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5090 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5091 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5092 [Steve Henson]
5093
5094 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5095 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5096 level.
5097 [Steve Henson]
5098
5099 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5100 to handle some structures.
5101 [Steve Henson]
5102
5103 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5104 for a '\n'
5105 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5106
5107 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5108 [Matthieu Herrb]
5109
5110 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5111 [Steve Henson]
5112
5113 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5114 [Steve Henson]
5115
5116 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5117 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5118 chosen compiler.
5119 [Ben Laurie]
5120
5121 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5122
5123 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5124 (CVE-2008-5077).
5125 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5126
5127 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5128 [Ben Laurie]
5129
5130 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5131 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5132 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5133 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5134
5135 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5136 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5137
5138 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5139 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5140 [Bodo Moeller]
5141
5142 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5143 s_client and s_server.
5144 [Ben Laurie]
5145
5146 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5147 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5148
5149 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5150 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5151
5152 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5153 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5154 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5155 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5156 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5157 [Bodo Moeller]
5158
5159 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5160
5161 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5162 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5163 [PR #1679]
5164
5165 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5166 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5167 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5168
5169 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5170 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5171 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5172 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5173
5174 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5175 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5176
5177 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5178
5179 *) Various precautionary measures:
5180
5181 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5182
5183 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5184 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5185 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5186
5187 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5188 outside the expected range.
5189
5190 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5191 builds.
5192
5193 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5194
5195 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5196 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5197 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5198
5199 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5200 [Steve Henson]
5201
5202 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5203 [Huang Ying]
5204
5205 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5206
5207 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5208 [Steve Henson]
5209
5210 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5211 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5212 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5213
5214 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5215 [Steve Henson]
5216
5217 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5218 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5219 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5220 files.
5221 [Steve Henson]
5222
5223 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5224
5225 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5226 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5227 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5228 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5229
5230 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5231 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5232 [Joe Orton]
5233
5234 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5235
5236 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5237 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5238 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5239
5240 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5241
5242 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5243 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5244 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5245 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5246 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5247
5248 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5249 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5250 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5251 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5252 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5253 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5254 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5255
5256 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5257
5258 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5259 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5260 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5261 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5262 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5263
5264 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5265 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5266
5267 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5268 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5269 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5270 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5271 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5272
5273 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5274
5275 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5276 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5277 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5278 sets may exist with different names.
5279 [Steve Henson]
5280
5281 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5282 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5283 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5284 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5285 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5286 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5287 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5288 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5289 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5290 implementation.
5291 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5292
5293 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5294 implementation in the following ways:
5295
5296 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5297 hard coded.
5298
5299 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5300 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5301 ignored for embedded content.
5302
5303 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5304 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5305 [Steve Henson]
5306
5307 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5308 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5309 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5310 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5311
5312 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5313 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5314 [Steve Henson]
5315
5316 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5317 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5318 [Steve Henson]
5319
5320 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5321 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5322 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5323 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5324 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5325 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5326 data.
5327 [Steve Henson]
5328
5329 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5330 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5331 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5332
5333 *) Netware support:
5334
5335 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5336 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5337 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5338 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5339 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5340 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5341 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5342 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5343 platform
5344 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5345 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5346 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5347 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5348 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5349 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5350 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5351
5352 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5353 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5354 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5355 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5356 to s_client and s_server.
5357 [Steve Henson]
5358
5359 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5360
5361 *) Fix various bugs:
5362 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5363 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5364 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5365 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5366 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5367
5368 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5369
5370 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5371 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5372 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5373 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5374 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5375 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5376 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5377 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5378 [Andy Polyakov]
5379
5380 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5381 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5382 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5383 Steve Henson]
5384
5385 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5386 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5387 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5388 supported.
5389
5390 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5391 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5392 SSL_SESSION.
5393
5394 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5395 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5396 with no application modification.
5397
5398 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5399 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5400
5401 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5402 or server extensions to be examined.
5403
5404 This work was sponsored by Google.
5405 [Steve Henson]
5406
5407 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5408 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5409 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5410 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5411 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5412 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5413 server_name extension.
5414
5415 New functions (subject to change):
5416
5417 SSL_get_servername()
5418 SSL_get_servername_type()
5419 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5420
5421 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5422
5423 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5424 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5425 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5426 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5427 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5428
5429 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5430
5431 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5432 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5433 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5434 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5435 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5436 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5437 option.
5438
5439 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5440
5441 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5442 [Steve Henson]
5443
5444 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5445 [Andy Polyakov]
5446
5447 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5448 (which previously caused an internal error).
5449 [Bodo Moeller]
5450
5451 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5452 [Ben Laurie]
5453
5454 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5455 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5456
5457 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5458 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5459 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5460
5461 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5462 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5463 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5464 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5465
5466 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5467 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5468 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5469 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5470
5471 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5472 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5473 information. For detailed background information, see
5474 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5475 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5476 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5477 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5478 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5479 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5480 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5481 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5482 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5483 remove a conditional branch.
5484
5485 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5486 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5487 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5488 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5489 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5490 remains as a deprecated alias.
5491
5492 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5493 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5494 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5495 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5496
5497 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5498 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5499 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5500 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5501 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5502 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5503 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5504 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5505
5506 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5507
5508 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5509 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5510 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5511 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5512 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5513 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5514 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5515 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5516 in a different context.
5517 [Bodo Moeller]
5518
5519 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5520 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5521 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5522 [Bodo Moeller]
5523
5524 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5525 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5526 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5527
5528 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5529
5530 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5531 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5532 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5533 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5534 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5535 [Victor Duchovni]
5536
5537 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5538 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5539 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5540 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5541 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5542 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5543 [Bodo Moeller]
5544
5545 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5546 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5547 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5548 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5549 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5550 [Bodo Moeller]
5551
5552 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5553 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5554
5555 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5556 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5557 Improve header file function name parsing.
5558 [Steve Henson]
5559
5560 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5561 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5562 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5563
5564 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5565
5566 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5567 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5568 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5569
5570 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5571 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5572
5573 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5574 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5575
5576 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5577 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5578 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5579
5580 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5581 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5582 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5583 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5584 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5585 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5586 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5587 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5588 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5589
5590 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5591 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5592 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5593 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5594 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5595
5596 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5597 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5598 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5599 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5600 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5601 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5602 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5603 multiple values to extend the available space.
5604
5605 [Bodo Moeller]
5606
5607 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5608
5609 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5610 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5611
5612 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5613 [Ben Laurie]
5614
5615 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5616 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5617 undesirable limitations.
5618 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5619
5620 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5621 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5622 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5623 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5624 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5625 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5626 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5627 [Bodo Moeller]
5628
5629 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5630
5631 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5632 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5633 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5634
5635 The latter two were purportedly from
5636 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5637 appear there.
5638
5639 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5640 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5641 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5642 [Bodo Moeller]
5643
5644 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5645 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5646 [Bodo Moeller]
5647
5648 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5649 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5650 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5651 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5652
5653 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5654 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5655 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5656 [NTT]
5657
5658 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5659 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5660 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5661 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5662 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5663 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5664 [Steve Henson]
5665
5666 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5667
5668 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5669 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5670 [Steve Henson]
5671
5672 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5673 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5674
5675 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5676 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5677 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5678 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5679 [Douglas Stebila]
5680
5681 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5682 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5683 [Steve Henson]
5684
5685 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5686 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5687 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5688 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5689 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5690 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5691 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5692 can't be loaded.
5693 [Steve Henson]
5694
5695 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5696 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5697 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5698 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5699 [Steve Henson]
5700
5701 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5702 under VC++ build system.
5703 [Steve Henson]
5704
5705 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5706 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5707 [Richard Levitte]
5708
5709 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5710
5711 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5712 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5713 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5714 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5715 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5716
5717 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5718 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5719 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5720
5721 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5722 [Steve Henson]
5723
5724 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5725 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5726 [Nils Larsch]
5727
5728 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5729 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5730
5731 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5732 [Nick Mathewson]
5733
5734 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5735 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5736
5737 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5738 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5739 [Steve Henson]
5740
5741 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5742 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5743 smime utility.
5744 [Steve Henson]
5745
5746 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5747
5748 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5749 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5750
5751 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5752 [Richard Levitte]
5753
5754 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5755 key into the same file any more.
5756 [Richard Levitte]
5757
5758 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5759 [Andy Polyakov]
5760
5761 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5762 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5763
5764 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5765 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5766 [Richard Levitte]
5767
5768 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5769 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5770 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5771 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5772 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5773 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5774
5775 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5776 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5777 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5778 [Steve Henson]
5779
5780 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5781 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5782 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5783 - add new function for parameter creation
5784 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5785 BN_BLINDING parameters
5786 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5787 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5788 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5789 threads.
5790 [Nils Larsch]
5791
5792 *) Add support for DTLS.
5793 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5794
5795 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5796 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5797 [Walter Goulet]
5798
5799 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5800 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5801 [Nils Larsch]
5802
5803 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5804 the apps/openssl applications.
5805 [Nils Larsch]
5806
5807 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5808 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5809 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5810 [Ben Laurie]
5811
5812 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5813 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5814
5815 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5816 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5817
5818 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5819 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5820 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5821 avoid this algorithm.)
5822
5823 [Bodo Moeller]
5824
5825 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5826 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5827 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5828 [Richard Levitte]
5829
5830 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5831 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5832 [Andy Polyakov]
5833
5834 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5835 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5836 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5837 pod file:
5838
5839 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5840
5841 The blank line is mandatory.
5842
5843 [Steve Henson]
5844
5845 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5846 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5847 sources.
5848 [Steve Henson]
5849
5850 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5851 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5852
5853 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5854 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5855 to support policy checking and print out.
5856 [Steve Henson]
5857
5858 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5859 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5860 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5861 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5862
5863 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5864 [Geoff Thorpe]
5865
5866 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5867 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5868
5869 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5870 implementation contributed by IBM.
5871 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5872
5873 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5874 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5875 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5876 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5877
5878 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5879 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5880
5881 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5882 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5883 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5884 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5885 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5886 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5887 [Steve Henson]
5888
5889 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5890 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5891 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5892 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5893 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5894 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5895 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5896 [Geoff Thorpe]
5897
5898 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5899 [Steve Henson]
5900
5901 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5902 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5903 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5904 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5905 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5906 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5907 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5908 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5909 [Steve Henson]
5910
5911 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5912 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5913 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5914 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5915 [Steve Henson]
5916
5917 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5918 syntax:
5919
5920 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5921 [Steve Henson]
5922
5923 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5924 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5925 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5926 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5927 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5928 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5929 BN_CTX's "bundling".
5930 [Geoff Thorpe]
5931
5932 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
5933 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
5934 [Geoff Thorpe]
5935
5936 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
5937 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
5938 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
5939 [Steve Henson]
5940
5941 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
5942 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
5943 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
5944 below).
5945 [Geoff Thorpe]
5946
5947 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
5948 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
5949 [Richard Levitte]
5950
5951 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
5952 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
5953 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
5954 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
5955 [Geoff Thorpe]
5956
5957 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
5958 initialised value as BN_new().
5959 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
5960
5961 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
5962 [Steve Henson]
5963
5964 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
5965 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
5966 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
5967 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
5968 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
5969 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
5970 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
5971 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
5972 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
5973 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
5974 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
5975 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
5976 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
5977 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
5978 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
5979
5980 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
5981 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
5982 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
5983 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5984 [Geoff Thorpe]
5985
5986 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5987 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5988 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5989 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5990 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5991 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5992 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5993 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5994 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5995 [Geoff Thorpe]
5996
5997 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5998 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5999 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
6000 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
6001 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
6002 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
6003 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
6004 [Geoff Thorpe]
6005
6006 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
6007 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
6008 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
6009 these have been updated also.
6010 [Geoff Thorpe]
6011
6012 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
6013 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
6014 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
6015 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
6016 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
6017 functions.
6018 [Steve Henson]
6019
6020 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
6021 structure of type "other".
6022 [Steve Henson]
6023
6024 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
6025 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
6026 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
6027 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
6028 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
6029 situation in the script.
6030 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6031
6032 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6033 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
6034 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
6035 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
6036 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
6037 used as premaster secret.
6038 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6039
6040 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
6041 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
6042 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6043
6044 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
6045 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
6046
6047 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
6048 control of the error stack.
6049 [Richard Levitte]
6050
6051 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6052 [Richard Levitte]
6053
6054 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6055 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6056 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6057 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6058 [Richard Levitte]
6059
6060 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6061 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6062 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6063 [Richard Levitte]
6064
6065 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6066 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6067 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6068 a memory area.
6069 [Richard Levitte]
6070
6071 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6072 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6073 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6074 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6075 [Richard Levitte]
6076
6077 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6078 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6079 the following flags are defined:
6080
6081 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6082 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6083 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6084 number.
6085
6086 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6087 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6088 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6089 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6090 returns zero.
6091 [Richard Levitte]
6092
6093 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6094 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6095 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6096 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6097 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6098 [Richard Levitte]
6099
6100 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6101 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6102 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6103 [Richard Levitte]
6104
6105 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6106 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6107 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6108 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6109 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6110 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6111 [Richard Levitte]
6112
6113 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6114 req and dirName.
6115 [Steve Henson]
6116
6117 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6118 [Steve Henson]
6119
6120 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6121 [Steve Henson]
6122
6123 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6124 [Steve Henson]
6125
6126 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6127 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6128 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6129 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6130 default implementation more easily.
6131 [Geoff Thorpe]
6132
6133 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6134 in config files.
6135 [Steve Henson]
6136
6137 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6138 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6139 [Richard Levitte]
6140
6141 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6142 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6143 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6144 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6145
6146 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6147 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6148 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6149 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6150 [Steve Henson]
6151
6152 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6153 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6154 to do it.
6155 [Richard Levitte]
6156
6157 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6158 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6159 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6160 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6161 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6162 scalar * generator).
6163 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6164
6165 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6166 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6167 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6168 correctly.
6169 [Steve Henson]
6170
6171 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6172 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6173 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6174 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6175 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6176 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6177 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6178 linker additions, eg;
6179 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6180 [Geoff Thorpe]
6181
6182 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6183 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6184 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6185 [Geoff Thorpe]
6186
6187 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6188 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6189 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6190 via PR#459)
6191 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6192
6193 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6194 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6195 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6196 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6197 [Geoff Thorpe]
6198
6199 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6200 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6201 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6202 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6203 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6204 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6205 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6206 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6207 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6208 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6209
6210 Example for using the new callback interface:
6211
6212 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6213 void *my_arg = ...;
6214 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6215
6216 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6217
6218 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6219 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6220 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6221 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6222 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6223 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6224 */
6225
6226 [Geoff Thorpe]
6227
6228 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6229 available to TLS with the number defined in
6230 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6231 [Richard Levitte]
6232
6233 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6234 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6235
6236 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6237 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6238 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6239 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6240
6241 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6242 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6243
6244 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6245 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6246 well.
6247 [Richard Levitte]
6248
6249 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6250 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6251 [Richard Levitte]
6252
6253 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6254 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6255 and a macro that behave like
6256 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6257
6258 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6259 [Nils Larsch]
6260
6261 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6262 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6263 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6264 if applicable.
6265 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6266
6267 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6268 [Bodo Moeller]
6269
6270 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6271 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6272 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6273 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6274 directory engines/.
6275 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6276 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6277 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6278 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6279 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6280 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6281 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6282 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6283
6284 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6285 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6286 [Richard Levitte]
6287
6288 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6289 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6290
6291 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6292 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6293 files while avoiding the low level API.
6294
6295 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6296 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6297 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6298 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6299
6300 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6301 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6302 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6303 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6304 instead of the low level API.
6305 [Steve Henson]
6306
6307 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6308 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6309 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6310 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6311 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6312 PKCS#7 code.
6313
6314 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6315 down to the template encoder.
6316 [Steve Henson]
6317
6318 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6319 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6320 [Bodo Moeller]
6321
6322 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6323 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6324 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6325 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6326
6327 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6328 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6329
6330 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6331 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6332
6333 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6334 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6335 [Bodo Moeller]
6336
6337 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6338 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6339 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6340 [Bodo Moeller]
6341
6342 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6343 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6344
6345 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6346 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6347
6348 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6349 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6350 New EC_METHOD:
6351
6352 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6353
6354 New API functions:
6355
6356 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6357 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6358 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6359 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6360 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6361 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6362
6363 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6364 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6365 enable it).
6366
6367 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6368 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6369 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6370 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6371 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6372 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6373 various internal method names.)
6374
6375 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6376 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6377
6378 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6379 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6380
6381 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6382 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6383
6384 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6385 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6386 methods are undefined.
6387
6388 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6389 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6390
6391 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6392 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6393 length of the modulus.
6394
6395 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6396 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6397
6398 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6399 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6400
6401 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6402 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6403
6404 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6405 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6406 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6407
6408 BN_GF2m_add
6409 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6410 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6411 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6412 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6413 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6414 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6415 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6416 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6417 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6418
6419 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6420 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6421
6422 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6423 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6424 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6425 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6426 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6427 where
6428 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6429 This applies to the following functions:
6430
6431 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6432 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6433 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6434 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6435 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6436 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6437 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6438 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6439 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6440 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6441
6442 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6443
6444 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6445 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6446
6447 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6448
6449 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6450 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6451 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6452 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6453 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6454
6455 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6456 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6457
6458 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6459 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6460 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6461
6462 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6463 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6464
6465 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6466 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6467 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6468 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6469 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6470
6471 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6472 functions
6473 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6474 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6475 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6476 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6477 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6478 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6479 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6480 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6481 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6482 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6483 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6484 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6485
6486 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6487 functions
6488 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6489 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6490 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6491 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6492 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6493
6494 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6495 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6496 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6497 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6498
6499 *) Add functions
6500 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6501 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6502 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6503 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6504 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6505 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6506 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6507
6508 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6509 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6510 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6511 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6512 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6513 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6514 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6515 adding different types of curves.
6516 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6517
6518 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6519 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6520 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6521 [Bodo Moeller]
6522
6523 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6524 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6525
6526 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6527 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6528 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6529 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6530
6531 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6532
6533 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6534 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6535
6536 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6537 library. Most notably,
6538 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6539 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6540 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6541 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6542 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6543 extracted before the specific public key;
6544 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6545 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6546
6547 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6548 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6549 function
6550 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6551 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6552 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6553 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6554 accessed via
6555 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6556 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6557 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6558
6559 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6560 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6561 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6562 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6563 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6564 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6565 differing sizes.
6566 [Richard Levitte]
6567
6568 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6569
6570 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6571 sensitive data.
6572 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6573
6574 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6575 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6576 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6577 [Bodo Moeller]
6578
6579 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6580 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6581 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6582 [Victor Duchovni]
6583
6584 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6585 [Steve Henson]
6586
6587 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6588 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6589 [Steve Henson]
6590
6591 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6592 run algorithm test programs.
6593 [Steve Henson]
6594
6595 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6596 [Steve Henson]
6597
6598 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6599 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6600 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6601 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6602 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6603 [Bodo Moeller]
6604
6605 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6606 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6607 [Steve Henson]
6608
6609 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6610
6611 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6612 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6613 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6614
6615 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6616 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6617
6618 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6619 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6620
6621 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6622 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6623 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6624
6625 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6626 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6627 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6628 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6629 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6630 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6631 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6632 [Bodo Moeller]
6633
6634 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6635
6636 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6637 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6638
6639 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6640 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6641 undesirable limitations.
6642 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6643
6644 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6645
6646 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6647 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6648 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6649
6650 The latter two were purportedly from
6651 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6652 appear there.
6653
6654 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6655 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6656 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6657 [Bodo Moeller]
6658
6659 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6660 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6661 [Bodo Moeller]
6662
6663 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6664
6665 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6666 module in FIPS mode.
6667 [Steve Henson]
6668
6669 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6670 [Steve Henson]
6671
6672 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6673 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6674 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6675 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6676 [Steve Henson]
6677
6678 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6679
6680 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6681 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6682 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6683 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6684 the difference induced by this change.
6685 [Andy Polyakov]
6686
6687 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6688
6689 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6690 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6691 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6692 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6693 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6694
6695 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6696 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6697 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6698
6699 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6700 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6701 [Steve Henson]
6702
6703 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6704 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6705 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6706 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6707 biased k.)
6708 [Bodo Moeller]
6709
6710 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6711 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6712 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6713 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6714 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6715
6716 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6717 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6718 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6719 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6720 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6721 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6722
6723 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6724
6725 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6726 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6727 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6728 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6729 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6730 [Bodo Moeller]
6731
6732 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6733 clients need.
6734 [Steve Henson]
6735
6736 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6737 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6738 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6739 [Steve Henson]
6740
6741 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6742 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6743 structures constant.
6744 [Steve Henson]
6745
6746 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6747
6748 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6749 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6750
6751 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6752 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6753 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6754 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6755 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6756 some needed definitions.
6757 [Steve Henson]
6758
6759 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6760 [Ulf Möller]
6761
6762 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6763 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6764 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6765 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6766 [Richard Levitte]
6767
6768 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6769
6770 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6771 server and client random values. Previously
6772 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6773 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6774
6775 This change has negligible security impact because:
6776
6777 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6778 data.
6779
6780 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6781 handshake.
6782
6783 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6784 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6785 values.
6786
6787 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6788 to our attention.
6789
6790 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6791
6792 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6793 [Ulf Möller]
6794
6795 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6796 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6797 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6798
6799 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6800 [Steve Henson]
6801
6802 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6803 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6804 [Andy Polyakov]
6805
6806 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6807 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6808 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6809
6810 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6811 [Steve Henson]
6812
6813 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6814 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6815 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6816 certificates.
6817 [Steve Henson]
6818
6819 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6820 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6821 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6822 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6823
6824 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6825 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6826 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6827 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6828 been given)
6829 [Richard Levitte]
6830
6831 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6832
6833 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6834 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6835 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6836 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6837 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6838 [Steve Henson]
6839
6840 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6841 [Steve Henson]
6842
6843 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6844 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6845
6846 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6847 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6848 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6849 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6850 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6851 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6852 rather than being initialized to 1.
6853 [Steve Henson]
6854
6855 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6856
6857 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6858 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6859 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6860
6861 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6862 (CVE-2004-0112)
6863 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6864
6865 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6866 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6867 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6868 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6869 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6870 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6871 [Richard Levitte]
6872
6873 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6874 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6875 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6876 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6877 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6878 for these cases.
6879 [Steve Henson]
6880
6881 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6882 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6883 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6884 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6885 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6886 [Steve Henson]
6887
6888 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6889 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6890 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6891 < 0.9.7.
6892 [Steve Henson]
6893
6894 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6895 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6896
6897 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6901
6902 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6903
6904 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6905 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6906
6907 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6908
6909 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6910 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6911
6912 [Steve Henson]
6913
6914 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6915 exiting on the first error in a request.
6916 [Steve Henson]
6917
6918 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6919 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6920 specifications.
6921 [Steve Henson]
6922
6923 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6924 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6925 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6926 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6927
6928 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6929 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6930 [Richard Levitte]
6931
6932 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
6933 blocks during encryption.
6934 [Richard Levitte]
6935
6936 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
6937 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
6938 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
6939 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
6940 certain size.
6941 [Steve Henson]
6942
6943 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
6944 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
6945 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
6946 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
6947 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
6948 parser.
6949 [Steve Henson]
6950
6951 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
6952
6953 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6954 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6955 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6956 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6957 [Bodo Moeller]
6958
6959 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6960 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6961 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6962 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6963 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6964
6965 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6966 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6967 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6968 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6969 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6970 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6971 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6972 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6973 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6974 [Bodo Moeller]
6975
6976 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
6977 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
6978 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
6979 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
6980 [Geoff Thorpe]
6981
6982 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
6983 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6984 [Ulf Moeller]
6985
6986 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6987
6988 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6989 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6990 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6991 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6992 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6993
6994 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6995 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6996 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6997
6998 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6999 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
7000 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
7001 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
7002 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
7003
7004 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
7005 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
7006 used by default when no-err is given.
7007 [Richard Levitte]
7008
7009 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
7010 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
7011
7012 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
7013 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
7014 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
7015 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
7016 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
7017
7018 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
7019 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
7020 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
7021 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
7022
7023 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
7024
7025 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7026
7027 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
7028
7029 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
7030 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
7031 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
7032 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
7033 root is omitted).
7034 [Steve Henson]
7035
7036 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
7037 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7038
7039 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
7040 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
7041 [Steve Henson]
7042
7043 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
7044 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
7045 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
7046 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
7047 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7048
7049 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7050 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7051 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7052 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7053 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7054 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7055 followup to PR #377.
7056 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7057
7058 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7059 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7060 [Andy Polyakov]
7061
7062 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7063 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7064 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7065 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7066
7067 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7068
7069 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7070 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7071
7072 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7073 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7074 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7075 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7076 client and server.
7077 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7078 PR #377.
7079 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7080
7081 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7082 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7083 removed entirely.
7084 [Richard Levitte]
7085
7086 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7087 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7088 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7089 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7090 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7091 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7092 of libcrypto.
7093 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7094 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7095 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7096 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7097 have to be made anyway).
7098 [Richard Levitte]
7099
7100 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7101 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7102 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7103 [Steve Henson]
7104
7105 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7106 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7107 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7108 [Richard Levitte]
7109
7110 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7111 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7112 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7113
7114 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7115 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7116 edit numbers of the version.
7117 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7118
7119 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7120 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7121 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7122
7123 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7124 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7125
7126 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7127 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7128 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7129
7130 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7131 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7132
7133 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7134 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7135
7136 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7137 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7138
7139 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7140 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7141
7142 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7143 overflows.
7144 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7145
7146 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7147 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7148 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7149
7150 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7151 representations in a platform independent manner.
7152 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7153
7154 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7155 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7156 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7157
7158 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7159 indents.
7160 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7161
7162 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7163 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7164
7165 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7166 full. Fixed.
7167 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7168
7169 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7170 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7171 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7172
7173 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7174 unconditionally).
7175 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7176
7177 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7178 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7179
7180 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7181 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7182
7183 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7184 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7185
7186 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7187 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7188
7189 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7190 CBCParameter.
7191 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7192
7193 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7194 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7195
7196 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7197 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7198
7199 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7200 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7201 exploitable.
7202 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7203
7204 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7205 the 0.9.6 release series:
7206
7207 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7208 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7209 (CVE-2002-0657)
7210 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7211
7212 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7213 [Richard Levitte]
7214
7215 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7216 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7217
7218 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7219 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7220
7221 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7222 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7223 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7224 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7225
7226 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7227 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7228 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7229
7230 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7231 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7232 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7233 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7234
7235 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7236 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7237 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7238 some local tweaks:
7239
7240 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7241 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7242 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7243 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7244 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7245 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7246 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7247 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7248 done
7249
7250 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7251 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7252 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7253 [Richard Levitte]
7254
7255 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7256 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7257 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7258 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7259 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7260
7261 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7262 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7263
7264 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7265 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7266 [Richard Levitte]
7267
7268 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7269 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7270 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7271 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7272 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7273 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7274 [Steve Henson]
7275
7276 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7277 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7278 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7279 [Steve Henson]
7280
7281 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7282 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7283 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7284
7285 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7286 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7287 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7288 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7289 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7290 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7291 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7292 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7293
7294 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7295 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7296 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7297 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7298 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7299 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7300 [Steve Henson]
7301
7302 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7303 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7304 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7305 declaration has been changed from
7306 int (*cb)()
7307 into
7308 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7309 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7310 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7311 has been changed into
7312 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7313
7314 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7315 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.

7318 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7319 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7320
7321 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7322 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7323 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7324 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7325 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7326 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7327 always load it have also been added.
7328 [Steve Henson]
7329
7330 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7331 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7332 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7333
7334 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7335
7336 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7337 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7338 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7339
7340 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7341 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7342 command line option can be used to specify an
7343 alternative file.
7344 [Steve Henson]
7345
7346 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7347 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7348 [Steve Henson]
7349
7350 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7351 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7352 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7353 [Steve Henson]
7354
7355 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7356 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7357 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7358 to work with the new engine framework.
7359 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7360
7361 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7362 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7363 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7364 to work with the new engine framework.
7365 [Richard Levitte]
7366
7367 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7368 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7369 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7370
7371 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7372 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7373
7374 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7375 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7376 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7377 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7378 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7379 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7380
7381 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7382 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7383
7384 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7385 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7386
7387 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7388 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7389 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7390 [Ben Laurie]
7391
7392 *) Add new functions
7393 ERR_peek_last_error
7394 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7395 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7396 These are similar to
7397 ERR_peek_error
7398 ERR_peek_error_line
7399 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7400 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7401 still in the error queue.
7402 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7403
7404 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7405 like:
7406 default_algorithms = ALL
7407 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7408 [Steve Henson]
7409
7410 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7411 [Steve Henson]
7412
7413 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7414 [Steve Henson]
7415
7416 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7417 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7418 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7419 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7420
7421 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7422 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7423
7424 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7425 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7426
7427 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7428 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7429 [Bodo Moeller]
7430
7431 *) New functions/macros
7432
7433 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7434 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7435 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7436 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7437
7438 to request calling a callback function
7439
7440 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7441 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7442
7443 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7444 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7445 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7446 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7447 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7448 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7449 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7450 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7451 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7452 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7453
7454 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7455 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7456 [Bodo Moeller]
7457
7458 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7459 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7460 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7461 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7462 the configuration scripts.
7463
7464 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7465 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7466 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7467
7468 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7469 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7470
7471 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7472 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7473 when reusing an existing buffer.
7474 [Bodo Moeller]
7475
7476 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7477 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7478 [Steve Henson]
7479
7480 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7481 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7482 [Ben Laurie]
7483
7484 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7485 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7486 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7487 has the same effect.
7488 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7489
7490 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7491 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7492 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7493 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7494 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7495 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7496 exception.
7497
7498 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7499 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7500 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7501 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7502
7503 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7504 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7505 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7506 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7507
7508 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7509 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7510 won't work.
7511
7512 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7513 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7514 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7515 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7516 default), and then completely removed.
7517 [Richard Levitte]
7518
7519 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7520 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7521 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7522 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7523 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7524 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7525 particular extension is supported.
7526 [Steve Henson]
7527
7528 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7529 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7530 [Steve Henson]
7531
7532 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7533 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7534 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7535 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7536 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7537 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7538 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7539 requires the destination to be valid.
7540
7541 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7542 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7543 [Steve Henson]
7544
7545 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7546 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7547 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7548 [Bodo Moeller]
7549
7550 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7551 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7552
7553 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7554 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7555 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7556 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7557 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7558 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7559 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7560 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7561 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7562 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7563 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7564 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7565 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7566 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7567 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7568 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7569 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7570 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7571 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7572 the new code.
7573 [Geoff Thorpe]
7574
7575 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7576 [Steve Henson]
7577
7578 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7579 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7580 become part of libeay.num as well.
7581 [Richard Levitte]
7582
7583 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7584 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7585 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7586 false once a handshake has been completed.
7587 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7588 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7589 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7590 client has followed the request.)
7591 [Bodo Moeller]
7592
7593 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7594 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7595 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7596 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7597
7598 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7599 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7600 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7601 [Bodo Moeller]
7602
7603 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7604 [Steve Henson]
7605
7606 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7607 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7608 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7609 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7610
7611 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7612 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7613 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7614
7615 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7616 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7617 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7618 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7619 [Geoff Thorpe]
7620
7621 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7622 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7623 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7624 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7625 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7626 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7627 [Geoff Thorpe]
7628
7629 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7630 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7631 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7632 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7633 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7634 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7635 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7636 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7637 [Geoff Thorpe]
7638
7639 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7640 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7641 [Geoff Thorpe]
7642
7643 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7644 [Ben Laurie]
7645
7646 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7647 md_data void pointer.
7648 [Ben Laurie]
7649
7650 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7651 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7652 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7653 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7654 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7655 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7656 [Ben Laurie]
7657
7658 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7659 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7660 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7661 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7662 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7663 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7664 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7665 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7666 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7667 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7668 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7669 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7670 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7671 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7672 rather than letting it slide.
7673
7674 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7675 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7676 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7677 [Geoff Thorpe]
7678
7679 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7680 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7681 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7682 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7683 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7684 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7685 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7686 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7687 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7688 [Geoff Thorpe]
7689
7690 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7691 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7692 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7693 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7694 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7695
7696 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7697 [Geoff Thorpe]
7698
7699 *) Add EVP test program.
7700 [Ben Laurie]
7701
7702 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7703 [Ben Laurie]
7704
7705 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7706 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7707 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7708 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7709 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7710 [Steve Henson]
7711
7712 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7713 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7714 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7715 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7716 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7717 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7718 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7719
7720 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7721 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7722 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7723 Usage example:
7724
7725 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7726
7727 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7728 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7729 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7730 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7731 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7732
7733 [Ben Laurie]
7734
7735 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7736 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7737 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7738 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7739 anyway): E.g.,
7740
7741 des_key_schedule ks;
7742
7743 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7744 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7745
7746 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7747 [Ben Laurie]
7748
7749 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7750 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7751 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7752 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7753 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7754 functions prevents this.
7755 [Steve Henson]
7756
7757 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7758 [Ben Laurie]
7759
7760 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7761 correct _ecb suffix.
7762 [Ben Laurie]
7763
7764 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7765 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7766 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7767 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7768 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7769 [Steve Henson]
7770
7771 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7772 [Richard Levitte]
7773
7774 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7775 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7776 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7777 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7778
7779 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7780 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7781
7782 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7783 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7784 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7785 via Richard Levitte]
7786
7787 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7788 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7789 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7790 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7791 [Geoff Thorpe]
7792
7793 *) Speed up EVP routines.
7794 Before:
7795 encrypt
7796 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
7797 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
7798 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

7804 After:

7809 [Ben Laurie]
7810
7811 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7812 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7813
7814 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7815 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7816 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7817 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7818 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7819 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7820 [Steve Henson]
7821
7822 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7823 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7824 [Richard Levitte]
7825
7826 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7827 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7828 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7829 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7830
7831 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7832 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7833 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7834 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7835 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7836 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7837 callback.
7838 [Richard Levitte]
7839
7840 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7841 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7842 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7843 and interrupts/cancellations.
7844 [Richard Levitte]
7845
7846 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7847 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7848 [Steve Henson]
7849
7850 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7851 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7852 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7853
7854 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7855 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7856 kind of callback.
7857 [Richard Levitte]
7858
7859 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7860 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7861 than this minimum value is recommended.
7862 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7863
7864 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7865 that are easily reachable.
7866 [Richard Levitte]
7867
7868 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7869 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7870
7871 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7872
7873 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7874 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7875 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7876 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7877 [Steve Henson]
7878
7879 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7880 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7881 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7882 [Steve Henson]
7883
7884 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7885 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7886 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7887 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7888 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7889 internally such as S/MIME.
7890
7891 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7892 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7893 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7894
7895 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7896 applications.
7897 [Steve Henson]
7898
7899 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7900 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7901 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7902 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7903
7904 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7905
7906 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7907
7908 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7909 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7910 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7911 handling.
7912 [Steve Henson]
7913
7914 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7915 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7916 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7917 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7918 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7919 a window system and the like.
7920 [Richard Levitte]
7921
7922 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7923 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7924 [Geoff]
7925
7926 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7927 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7928 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7929 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
7930 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
7931 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
7932 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
7933 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
7934 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
7935 ENGINE structure.
7936 [Geoff]
7937
7938 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
7939 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
7940 tag cache.
7941 [Steve Henson]
7942
7943 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
7944 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
7945 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
7946 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
7947 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
7948 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
7949 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
7950 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
7951 [Geoff]
7952
7953 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
7954 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
7955 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
7956 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
7957 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
7958 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
7959 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
7960 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
7961 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
7962 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
7963 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
7964 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
7965 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
7966 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
7967 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
7968 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
7969 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
7970 [Geoff]
7971
7972 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
7973 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
7974 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
7975 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
7976 internal engine_int.h header.
7977 [Geoff]
7978
7979 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
7980 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
7981 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
7982 modify their own ones).
7983 [Geoff]
7984
7985 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7986 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7987 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7988 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7989 later on via ctrl() commands.
7990 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7991 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7992 structural references.
7993 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7994 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7995 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7996 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7997 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7998 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7999 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
8000 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
8001 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
8002 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
8003 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
8004 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
8005 [Geoff]
8006
8007 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
8008 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
8009 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
8010 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
8011 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
8012 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
8013 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
8014 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
8015 [Bodo Moeller]
8016
8017 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
8018 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
8019 [Steve Henson]
8020
8021 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
8022 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
8023 [Steve Henson]
8024
8025 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
8026 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
8027 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
8028 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
8029 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
8030 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
8031 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
8032 [Steve Henson]
8033
8034 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
8035 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
8036 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
8037 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
8038 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
8039
8040 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
8041 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
8042 generator).
8043 [Bodo Moeller]
8044
8045 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
8046
8047 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
8048 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8049 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8050
8051 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8052 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8053
8054 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8055 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8056 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8057
8058 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8059 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8060
8061 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8062 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8063
8064 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8065
8066 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8067 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8068 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8069 [Bodo Moeller]
8070
8071 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8072 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8073 [Richard Levitte]
8074
8075 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8076 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8077 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8078 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8079 is 40 of more characters long.
8080 [Steve Henson]
8081
8082 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8083 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8084 pointers.
8085 [Steve Henson]
8086
8087 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8088 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8089 [Bodo Moeller]
8090
8091 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8092 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8093 might.
8094 [Steve Henson]
8095
8096 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8097
8098 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8099 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8100
8101 ASN1 error codes
8102 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8103 ...
8104 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8105 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8106 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8107 ...
8108 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8109 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8110
8111 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8112 [Bodo Moeller]
8113
8114 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8115 suffices.
8116 [Bodo Moeller]
8117
8118 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8119 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8120 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8121 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8122 and
8123 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8124
8125 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8126 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8127
8128 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8129 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8130 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8131 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8132 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8133 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8134
8135 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8136 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8137
8138 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8139 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8140
8141 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8142 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8143
8144 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8145 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8146 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8147 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8148
8149 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8150 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8151
8152 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8153 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8154
8155 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8156 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8157 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8158 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8159 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8160 [Richard Levitte]
8161
8162 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8163 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8164 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8165 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8166 [Steve Henson]
8167
8168 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8169 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8170 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8171 trust settings.
8172 [Steve Henson]
8173
8174 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8175 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8176 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8177 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8178 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8179 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8180 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8181 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8182 ocsp utility.
8183 [Steve Henson]
8184
8185 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8186 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8187 [Steve Henson]
8188
8189 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8190 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8191 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8192 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8193 [Steve Henson]
8194
8195 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8196 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8197 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8198 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8199 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8200 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8201 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8202 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8203 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8204 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8205 [Steve Henson]
8206
8207 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8208 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8209 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8210 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8211 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8212 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8213 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8214 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8215
8216 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8217 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8218 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8219 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8220 [Richard Levitte]
8221
8222 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8223 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8224 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8225 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8226 opensslconf.h.
8227 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8228 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8229 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8230 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8231 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8232 what is available.
8233 [Richard Levitte]
8234
8235 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8236 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8237 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8238 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8239 auto incremented.
8240 [Steve Henson]
8241
8242 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8243 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8244 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8245 [Steve Henson]
8246
8247 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8248 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8249 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8250 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8251 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8252 [Steve Henson]
8253
8254 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8255 [Steve Henson]
8256
8257 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8258 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8259 option to ocsp utility.
8260 [Steve Henson]
8261
8262 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8263 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8264 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8265 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8266 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8267 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8268 the request is nonce-less.
8269 [Steve Henson]
8270
8271 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8272 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8273 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8274 [Bodo Moeller]
8275
8276 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8277 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8278 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8279 [Steve Henson]
8280
8281 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8282 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8283 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8284 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8285 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8286 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8287
8288 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8289 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8290 appear to exist.
8291 [Steve Henson]
8292
8293 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8294 additional certificates supplied.
8295 [Steve Henson]
8296
8297 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8298 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8299 signature against.
8300 [Richard Levitte]
8301
8302 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8303 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8304 AES OIDs.
8305
8306 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8307 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8308 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8309 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8310 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8311 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8312 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8313 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8314 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8315
8316 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8317 request to response.
8318 [Steve Henson]
8319
8320 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8321 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8322 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8323 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8324 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8325 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8326 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8327 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8328 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8329 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8330 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8331 [Steve Henson]
8332
8333 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8334 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8335 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8336 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8337 [Steve Henson]
8338
8339 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8340 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8341
8342 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8343 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8344 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8345 [Steve Henson]
8346
8347 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8348 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8349 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8350 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8351 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8352
8353 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8354 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8355 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8356 [Steve Henson]
8357
8358 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8359 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8360 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8361 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8362 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8363 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8364 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8365 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8366
8367 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8368 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8369 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8370 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8371 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8372 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8373 [Steve Henson]
8374
8375 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8376 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8377 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8378 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8379 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8380 printout format cleaned up.
8381 [Steve Henson]
8382
8383 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8384 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8385 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8386 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8387 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8388 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8389 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8390 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8391 [Steve Henson]
8392
8393 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8394 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8395 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8396 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8397 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8398 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8399 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8400 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8401 [Steve Henson]
8402
8403 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8404 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8405 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8406 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8407 section to use.
8408 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8409
8410 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8411 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8412 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8413 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8414 [Steve Henson]
8415
8416 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8417 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8418 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8419 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8420 in the index file.
8421 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8422
8423 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8424 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8425 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8426 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8427
8428 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8429 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8430
8431 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8432 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8433 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8434 [Steve Henson]
8435
8436 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8437 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8438 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8439 [Bodo Moeller]
8440
8441 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8442 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8443 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8444 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8445 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8446 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8447 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8448 functions are provided:
8449
8450 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8451 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8452 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8453 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8454
8455 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8456 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8457 extended allocation function is enabled.
8458 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8459 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8460 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8461
8462 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8463 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8464 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8465 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8466 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8467 [Geoff Thorpe]
8468
8469 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8470 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8471 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8472 be queried.
8473 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8474 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8475 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8476 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8477
8478 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8479 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8480 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8481 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8482 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8483 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8484 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8485 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8486 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8487 [Richard Levitte]
8488
8489 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8490 provide utility functions which an application needing
8491 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8492 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8493 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8494
8495 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8496 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8497 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8498 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8499 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8500 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8501 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8502 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8503 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8504
8505 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8506 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8507 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8508 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8509 [Steve Henson]
8510
8511 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8512 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8513 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8514 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8515 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8516 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8517 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8518 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8519 will be added elsewhere.
8520 [Steve Henson]
8521
8522 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8523 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8524 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8525 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8526 [Steve Henson]
8527
8528 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8529 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8530 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8531 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8532 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8533 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8534 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8535 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8536 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8537 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8538 to produce the required SET OF.
8539 [Steve Henson]
8540
8541 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8542 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8543 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8544 [Richard Levitte]
8545
8546 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8547 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8548 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8549 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8550 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8551 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8552 [Steve Henson]
8553
8554 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8555 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8556 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8557 [Steve Henson]
8558
8559 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8560 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8561 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8562 [Richard Levitte]
8563
8564 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8565 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8566 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8567 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8568 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8569 [Steve Henson]
8570
8571 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8572 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8576 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8577 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8578 certificates and CRLs.
8579 [Steve Henson]
8580
8581 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8582 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8583 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8584 [Steve Henson]
8585
8586 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8587 entries for variables.
8588 [Steve Henson]
8589
8590 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8591 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8592 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8593 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8594 [Bodo Moeller]
8595
8596 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8597 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8598 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8599 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8600 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8601 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8602 [Bodo Moeller]
8603
8604 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8605 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8606
8607 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8608 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8609 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8610 [Steve Henson]
8611
8612 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8613 print routines.
8614 [Steve Henson]
8615
8616 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8617 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8618 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8619 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8620 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8621 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8622 [Steve Henson]
8623
8624 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8625 [Steve Henson]
8626
8627 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8628 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8629 for now but they will eventually go away.
8630 [Steve Henson]
8631
8632 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8633 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8634 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8635 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8636 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8637 has also been converted to the new form.
8638 [Steve Henson]
8639
8640 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8641 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8642 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8643 for negative moduli.
8644 [Bodo Moeller]
8645
8646 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8647 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8648 [Bodo Moeller]
8649
8650 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8651 set.
8652 [Bodo Moeller]
8653
8654 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8655 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8656 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8657 type-specific callbacks.
8658 [Geoff Thorpe]
8659
8660 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8661 RFC 2712.
8662 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8663 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8664
8665 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8666 in sections depending on the subject.
8667 [Richard Levitte]
8668
8669 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8670 Windows.
8671 [Richard Levitte]
8672
8673 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8674 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8675 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8676 be handled deterministically).
8677 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8678
8679 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8680 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8681 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8682 [Bodo Moeller]
8683
8684 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8685 [Bodo Moeller]
8686
8687 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8688 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8689 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8690 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8691 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8692 [Bodo Moeller]
8693
8694 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8695 sign of the number in question.
8696
8697 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8698
8699 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8700 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8701 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8702 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8703 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8704 [Bodo Moeller]
8705
8706 *) New function BN_swap.
8707 [Bodo Moeller]
8708
8709 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8710 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8711 results on negative inputs.
8712 [Bodo Moeller]
8713
8714 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8715 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8716 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8717 [Bodo Moeller]
8718
8719 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8720 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8721 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8722 and add new functions:
8723
8724 BN_nnmod
8725 BN_mod_sqr
8726 BN_mod_add
8727 BN_mod_add_quick
8728 BN_mod_sub
8729 BN_mod_sub_quick
8730 BN_mod_lshift1
8731 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8732 BN_mod_lshift
8733 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8734
8735 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8736
8737 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8738 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8739
8740 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8741 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8742 be reduced modulo m.

8745 #if 0
8746 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8747 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8748 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8749
8750 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8751 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8752 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8753 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8754 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8755 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8756 differing sizes.
8757 [Richard Levitte]
8758 #endif
8759
8760 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8761 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8762 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8763 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8764 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8765
8766 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8767 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8768 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8769 cause any problems.
8770 [Bodo Moeller]
8771
8772 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8773 [Richard Levitte]
8774
8775 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8776 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8777 [Richard Levitte]
8778
8779 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8780 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8781 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8782 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8783 time)
8784 [Richard Levitte]
8785
8786 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8787 [Richard Levitte]
8788
8789 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8790 [Richard Levitte]
8791
8792 *) Add the following functions:
8793
8794 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8795 ENGINE_load_chil()
8796 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8797 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8798 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8799
8800 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8801 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8802 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8803 libraries unless it's really needed.
8804
8805 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8806 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8807 declarations (they differed!).
8808 [Richard Levitte]
8809
8810 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8811 [Richard Levitte]
8812
8813 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8814 [Richard Levitte]
8815
8816 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8817 [Bodo Moeller]
8818
8819 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8820 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8821 [Richard Levitte]
8822
8823 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8824 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8825 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8826
8827 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8828 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8829 [Richard Levitte]
8830
8831 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8832 [Richard Levitte]
8833
8834 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8835 [Richard Levitte]
8836
8837 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8838 [Ben Laurie]
8839
8840 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8841 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8842 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8843
8844 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8845 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8846 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8847 different shared library filenames on each system.
8848 [Geoff Thorpe]
8849
8850 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8851 [Richard Levitte]
8852
8853 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8854 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8855 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8856 of two sections.
8857 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8858
8859 *) NCONF changes.
8860 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8861 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8862 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8863 binary backward compatibility.
8864 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8865 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8866 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8867 LDAP server.
8868 [Richard Levitte]
8869
8870 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8871 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8872 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8873 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8874 this case.
8875 [Steve Henson]
8876
8877 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8878 [Ben Laurie]
8879
8880 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8881 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8882 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8883 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8884 set.
8885 [Steve Henson]
8886
8887 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8888 [Richard Levitte]
8889
8890 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8891
8892 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8893 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8894 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8895
8896 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8897
8898 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8899
8900 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8901 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8902 [Steve Henson]
8903
8904 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8905
8906 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8907
8908 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8909 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8910
8911 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8912 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8913
8914 [Steve Henson]
8915
8916 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8917 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8918 specifications.
8919 [Steve Henson]
8920
8921 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8922 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8923 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8924 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8925
8926 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8927 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8928 [Richard Levitte]
8929
8930 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
8931
8932 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
8933 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
8934 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
8935 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
8936 [Bodo Moeller]
8937
8938 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
8939 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
8940 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
8941 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
8942 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8943
8944 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
8945 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
8946 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
8947 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
8948 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
8949 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
8950 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
8951 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
8952 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
8953 [Bodo Moeller]
8954
8955 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
8956
8957 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
8958 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
8959 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
8960 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
8961 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
8962
8963 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
8964 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
8965 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
8966
8967 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
8968
8969 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
8970 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
8971 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
8972 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
8973 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
8974 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
8975 [Geoff Thorpe]
8976
8977 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
8978 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
8979 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
8980 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
8981 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
8982 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8983
8984 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8985 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8986 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8987
8988 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8989 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8990 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8991 EVP_cleanup().
8992 [Richard Levitte]
8993
8994 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8995 being properly terminated.
8996 [Richard Levitte]
8997
8998 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8999 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
9000 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
9001 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
9002
9003 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
9004 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
9005 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
9006 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
9007 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
9008 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
9009 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
9010 change.
9011 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
9012
9013 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
9014 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
9015 [Bodo Moeller]
9016
9017 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
9018 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
9019 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
9020 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
9021 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
9022 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
9023 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
9024 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
9025
9026 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
9027 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
9028 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
9029 (see [openssl.org #212]).
9030 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
9031
9032 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
9033 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
9034 [Steve Henson]
9035
9036 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
9037
9038 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
9039 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
9040 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
9041
9042 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
9043
9044 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
9045 and get fix the header length calculation.
9046 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
9047 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
9048 Steve Henson]
9049
9050 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9051 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9052 assertions could call abort()).
9053 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9054
9055 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9056
9057 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9058 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9059 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9060 supplied buffer.
9061 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9062
9063 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9064 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9065 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9066 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9067
9068 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9069 [Nils Larsch]
9070
9071 *) New option
9072 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9073 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9074 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9075
9076 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9077 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9078 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9079 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9080 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9081 applications.
9082 [Bodo Moeller]
9083
9084 *) Changes in security patch:
9085
9086 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9087 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9088 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9089 F30602-01-2-0537.
9090
9091 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9092 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9093 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9094 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9095 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9096
9097 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9098 happen in practice.
9099 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9100
9101 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9102 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9103 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9104
9105 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9106 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9107 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9108
9109 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9110 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9111 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9112
9113 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9114
9115 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9116 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9117 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9118
9119 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9120 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9121
9122 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9123 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9124 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9125 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9126 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9127 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9128 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9129
9130 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9131 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9132 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9133 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9134 [Bodo Moeller]
9135
9136 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9137 [Bodo Moeller]
9138
9139 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9140 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9141 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9142 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9143 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9144 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9145
9146 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9147 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9148 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9149 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9150 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9151 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9152
9153 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9154 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9155 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9156 BN_generate_prime().)
9157
9158 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9159 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9160 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9161 better.
9162 [Bodo Moeller]
9163
9164 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9165 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9166 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9167
9168 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9169 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9170 when using non-blocking I/O.
9171 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9172
9173 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9174 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9175
9176 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9177 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9178 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9179
9180 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9181 configuration for the versions before that.
9182 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9183
9184 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9185 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9186 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9187 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9188 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9189
9190 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9191 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9192 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9193 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9194
9195 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9196 value is 0.
9197 [Richard Levitte]
9198
9199 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9200 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9201 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9202
9203 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9204 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9205
9206 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9207 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9208 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9209 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9210 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9211 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9212 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9213 session cache.
9214
9215 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9216 using a local variable.
9217 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9218
9219 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9220 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9221 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9222
9223 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9224 [Richard Levitte]
9225
9226 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9227 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9228
9229 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9230 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9231 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9232
9233 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9234
9235 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9236 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9237 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9238 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9239 [Bodo Moeller]
9240
9241 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9242 present.
9243 [Steve Henson]
9244
9245 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9246 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9247 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9248 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9249 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9250
9251 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9252 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9253 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9254
9255 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9256 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9257 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9258
9259 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9260 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9261 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9262 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9263
9264 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9265 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9266 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9267 modules).
9268 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9269
9270 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9271 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9272 from 0.9.7.
9273 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9274
9275 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9276 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9277 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9278 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9279
9280 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9281 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9282 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9283 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9284
9285 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9286 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9287
9288 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9289 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9290 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9291 [Bodo Moeller]
9292
9293 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9294 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9295 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9296 become invalid.
9297 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9298
9299 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9300 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9301 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9302 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9303 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9304 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9305 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9306 [Bodo Moeller]
9307
9308 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9309 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9310 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9311 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9312
9313 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9314 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9315 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9316 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9317 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9318 the client will at least see that alert.
9319 [Bodo Moeller]
9320
9321 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9322 correctly.
9323 [Bodo Moeller]
9324
9325 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9326 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9327 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9328
9329 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9330 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9331 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9332 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9333 HelloRequest.
9334
9335 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9336 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9337 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9338
9339 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9340 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9341 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9342 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9343 may leak via logfiles.)
9344
9345 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9346 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9347 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9348 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9349 the legal range.
9350 [Bodo Moeller]
9351
9352 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9353 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9354 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9355
9356 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9357 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9358 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9359 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9360 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9361 [Bodo Moeller]
9362
9363 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9364 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9365
9366 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9367 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9368 followed by modular reduction.
9369 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9370
9371 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9372 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9373 [Bodo Moeller]
9374
9375 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9376 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9377 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9378 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9379 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9380
9381 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9382 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9383
9384 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9385 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9386 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9387
9388 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9389 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9390 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9391 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9392 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9393 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9394 automatically.
9395 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9396
9397 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9398 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9399 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9400 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9401 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9402
9403 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9404 [Andy Polyakov]
9405
9406 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9407 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9408 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9409 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9410 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9411 to allow the necessary settings.
9412 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9413
9414 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9415 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9416 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9417 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9418 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9419
9420 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9421 dh->length and always used
9422
9423 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9424
9425 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9426 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9427 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9428 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9429 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9430 dh->length.
9431
9432 So switch back to
9433
9434 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9435
9436 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9437 otherwise.
9438 [Bodo Moeller]
9439
9440 *) In
9441
9442 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9443 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9444 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9445 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9446
9447 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9448 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9449 always reject numbers >= n.
9450 [Bodo Moeller]
9451
9452 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9453 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9454 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9455 variable) is not atomic.
9456 [Bodo Moeller]
9457
9458 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9459 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9460 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9461 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9462
9463 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9464 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9465
9466 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9467 little-endian MIPS.
9468 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9469
9470 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9471 [Richard Levitte]
9472
9473 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9474
9475 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9476 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9477 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9478 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9479 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9480 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9481 to traverse all of 'state'.
9482
9483 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9484 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9485 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9486
9487 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9488 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9489
9490 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9491 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9492 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9493 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9494 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9495 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9496 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9497 further strengthens the PRNG.
9498 [Bodo Moeller]
9499
9500 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9501 [Andy Polyakov]
9502
9503 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9504 an error message in this case.
9505 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9506
9507 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9508 [Steve Henson]
9509
9510 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9511 positive and less than q.
9512 [Bodo Moeller]
9513
9514 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9515 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9516 that itself.
9517 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9518
9519 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9520 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9521 [Bodo Moeller]
9522
9523 *) Fix OAEP check.
9524 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9525
9526 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9527 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9528 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9529 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9530 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9531 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9532 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9533 paper.)
9534
9535 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9536 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9537 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9538 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9539
9540 Both problems are now fixed.
9541 [Bodo Moeller]
9542
9543 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9544 (previously it was 1024).
9545 [Bodo Moeller]
9546
9547 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9548 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9549 [Steve Henson]
9550
9551 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9552 [Steve Henson]
9553
9554 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9555 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9556 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9557 [Steve Henson]
9558
9559 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9560 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9561 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9562 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9563 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9564 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9565 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9566 environment variables.
9567
9568 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9569 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9570 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9571 [Bodo Moeller]
9572
9573 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9574 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9575 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9576 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9577 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9578 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9579 [Bodo Moeller]
9580
9581 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9582 versions of 'test'.
9583 [Bodo Moeller]
9584
9585 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9586
9587 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9588 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9589
9590 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9591 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9592 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9593 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9594 CygWin.
9595 [Richard Levitte]
9596
9597 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9598 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9599 amount of data available.
9600 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9601 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9602
9603 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9604 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9605 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9606 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9607 [Bodo Moeller]
9608
9609 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9610 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9611 and UnixWare.
9612 [Richard Levitte]
9613
9614 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9615 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9616 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9617 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9618 [Ulf Moeller]
9619
9620 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9621 [Andy Polyakov]
9622
9623 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9624 [Richard Levitte]
9625
9626 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9627 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9628 [Steve Henson]
9629 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9630
9631 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9632 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9633 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9634 (but broken) behaviour.
9635 [Steve Henson]
9636
9637 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9638 it when found.
9639 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9640
9641 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9642 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9643 [Bodo Moeller]
9644
9645 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9646 did not exist.
9647 [Bodo Moeller]
9648
9649 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9650 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9651
9652 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9653 [Richard Levitte]
9654
9655 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9656 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9657 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9658
9659 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9660 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9661 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9662 [Steve Henson]
9663
9664 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9665 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9666 [Ulf Moeller]
9667
9668 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9669 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9670
9671 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9672
9673 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9674
9675 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9676 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9677 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9678 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9679 [Bodo Moeller]
9680
9681 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9682 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9683
9684 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9685 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9686 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9687
9688 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9689 was empty.
9690 [Steve Henson]
9691 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9692
9693 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9694 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9695 but the code is actually correct.
9696 [Steve Henson]
9697
9698 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9699 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9700 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9701 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9702 and leaves the highest bit random.
9703 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9704
9705 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9706 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9707 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9708 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9709 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9710 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9711 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9712 [Bodo Moeller]
9713
9714 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9715 [Ulf Moeller]
9716
9717 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9718 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9719 [Steve Henson]
9720
9721 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9722 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9723 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9724 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9725 headers.
9726 [Richard Levitte]
9727
9728 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9729 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9730 and break the signature.
9731 [Steve Henson]
9732 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9733
9734 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9735 DH ciphersuites.
9736 [Steve Henson]
9737
9738 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9739 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9740 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9741 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9742 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9743 [Bodo Moeller]
9744
9745 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9746 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9747
9748 *) ./config script fixes.
9749 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9750
9751 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9752 [Bodo Moeller]
9753
9754 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9755 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9756 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9757 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9758 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9759
9760 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9761 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9762 [Bodo Moeller]
9763
9764 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9765 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9766 [Steve Henson]
9767
9768 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9769 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9770 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9771 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9772
9773 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9774 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9775
9776 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9777 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9778 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9779 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9780 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9781
9782 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9783 [Bodo Moeller]
9784
9785 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9786 [Ulf Möller]
9787
9788 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9789 [Ulf Möller]
9790
9791 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9792 [Bodo Moeller]
9793
9794 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9795 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9796 [Bodo Moeller]
9797
9798 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9799 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9800 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9801 result of the server certificate verification.)
9802 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9803
9804 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9805 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9806 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9807 [Bodo Moeller]
9808
9809 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9810 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9811 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9812 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9813 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9814 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9815 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9816 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9817 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9818 [Bodo Moeller]
9819
9820 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9821 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9822 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9823 happening the other way round.
9824 [Geoff Thorpe]
9825
9826 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9827 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9828 [Bodo Moeller]
9829
9830 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9831 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9832 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9833 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9834 [Richard Levitte]
9835
9836 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9837 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9838
9839 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9840
9841 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9842 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9843 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9844 that.
9845
9846 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9847
9848 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9849
9850 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9851 static ones.
9852 [Richard Levitte]
9853
9854 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9855
9856 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9857 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9858 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9859 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9860 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9861
9862 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9863 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9864 matter what.
9865 [Richard Levitte]
9866
9867 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9868 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9869
9870 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9871
9872 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9873 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9874 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9875 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9876 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9877 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9878 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9879 by the Finished messages.
9880 [Bodo Moeller]
9881
9882 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9883 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9884
9885 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9886 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9887 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9888 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9889 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9890 appropriately.
9891 [Steve Henson]
9892
9893 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9894 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9895 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9896 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9897 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9898 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9899 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9900 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9901 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9902 together.
9903 [Steve Henson]
9904
9905 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9906 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9907 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9908 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9909
9910 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9911 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9912 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9913 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9914 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9915 the answer.
9916
9917 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9918 been tested well enough.
9919 [Richard Levitte]
9920
9921 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9922 it can return incorrect results.
9923 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9924 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9925 [Bodo Moeller]
9926
9927 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9928 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9929 include zero length content when signing messages.
9930 [Steve Henson]
9931
9932 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
9933 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
9934 [Bodo Möller]
9935
9936 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
9937 [Richard Levitte]
9938
9939 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
9940 wrong sign.
9941 [Ulf Möller]
9942
9943 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
9944 packages. The default package contains applications, application
9945 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
9946 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
9947 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
9948 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
9949 [Richard Levitte]
9950
9951 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
9952 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9953
9954 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
9955 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
9956
9957 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
9958 random number < q in the DSA library.
9959 [Ulf Möller]
9960
9961 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
9962 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
9963 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
9964 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
9965 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
9966 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
9967 just makes things more complicated.)
9968 [Bodo Moeller]
9969
9970 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
9971 from EGD.
9972 [Ben Laurie]
9973
9974 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
9975 work better on such systems.
9976 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9977
9978 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
9979 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
9980 keyid to the certificates aux info.
9981 [Steve Henson]
9982
9983 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9984 if there was more than one signature.
9985 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9986
9987 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9988 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9989 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9990 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9991 [Richard Levitte]
9992
9993 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9994 rather than always using the current time.
9995 [Steve Henson]
9996
9997 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9998 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9999 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
10000 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
10001 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
10002 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
10003
10004 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
10005 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
10006
10007 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
10008
10009 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
10010 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
10011 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
10012 the same hash value.
10013
10014 As a result various functions (which were all internal
10015 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
10016 structure. This will break anything that messed round
10017 with X509_STORE internally.
10018
10019 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
10020 exact match, rather than just subject name.
10021
10022 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
10023 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
10024 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
10025 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
10026 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
10027 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
10028 entirely (maybe later...).
10029
10030 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
10031
10032 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
10033 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
10034 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
10035 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
10036 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
10037 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
10038 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
10039 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
10040
10041 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
10042 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
10043
10044 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
10045 to customise the verify behaviour.
10046 [Steve Henson]
10047
10048 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10049 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10050 [Steve Henson]
10051
10052 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10053 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10054 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10055 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10056 request is improperly encoded.
10057 [Steve Henson]
10058
10059 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10060 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10061 BIO_write(b, ...).
10062
10063 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10064 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10065
10066 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10067 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10068 words set to zero.)
10069 [Bodo Moeller]
10070
10071 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10072 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10073 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10074 [Bodo Moeller]
10075
10076 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10077 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10078 BIO/fp routines also added.
10079 [Steve Henson]
10080
10081 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10082 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10083
10084 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10085 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10086 demos/state_machine.
10087 [Ben Laurie]
10088
10089 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10090 generation and verification.
10091 [Steve Henson]
10092
10093 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10094 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10095 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10096 encode and decode it manually.
10097 [Steve Henson]
10098
10099 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10100 compile under VC++.
10101 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10102
10103 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10104 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10105 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10106 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10107
10108 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10109 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10110 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10111 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10112 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10113 [Steve Henson]
10114
10115 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10116 [Richard Levitte]
10117
10118 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10119 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10120 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10121
10122 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10123 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10124 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10125 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10126 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10127 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10128 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10129 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10130
10131 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10132 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10133
10134 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10135
10136 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10137 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10138 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10139
10140 [Richard Levitte]
10141
10142 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10143 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10144 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10145 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10146 [Richard Levitte]
10147
10148 *) MD4 implemented.
10149 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10150
10151 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10152 [Richard Levitte]
10153
10154 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10155 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10156 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10157 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10158 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10159 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10160 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10161 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10162 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10163 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10164 short or long names are found.
10165 [Steve Henson]
10166
10167 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10168 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10169
10170 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10171 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10172 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10173 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10174
10175 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10176 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10177 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10178 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10179 [Bodo Moeller]
10180
10181 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10182 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10183 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10184 [Richard Levitte]
10185
10186 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10187 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10188 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10189 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10190 to allow the various flags to be set.
10191 [Steve Henson]
10192
10193 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10194 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10195 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10196 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10197 dates to be checked.
10198 [Steve Henson]
10199
10200 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10201 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10202 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10203 [Steve Henson]
10204
10205 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10206 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10207 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10208 [Steve Henson]
10209
10210 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10211 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10212 [Bodo Moeller]
10213
10214 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10215 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10216 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10217 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10218 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10219 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10220 [Richard Levitte]
10221
10222 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10223 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10224 Random Numbers.
10225 [Ulf Möller]
10226
10227 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10228 DSA key.
10229 [Steve Henson]
10230
10231 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10232 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10233 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10234 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10235 form signing output easier to verify.
10236 [Steve Henson]
10237
10238 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10239 [Steve Henson]
10240
10241 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10242 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10243 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10244 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10245 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10246 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10247 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10248 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10249 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10250 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10251 [Steve Henson]
10252
10253 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10254
10255 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10256 the syntax given in objects.README.
10257 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10258 obj_mac.h.
10259 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10260 obj_mac.h.
10261
10262 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10263 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10264 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10265 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10266 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10267 consistent name changes.
10268 [Richard Levitte]
10269
10270 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10271 [Bodo Moeller]
10272
10273 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10274 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10275 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10276 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10277 [Richard Levitte]
10278
10279 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10280 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10281 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10282 of safestack.h .
10283 [Steve Henson]
10284
10285 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10286 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10287 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10288 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10289 [Steve Henson]
10290
10291 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10292 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10293 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10294 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10295 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10296 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10297 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10298 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10299 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10300 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10301 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10302 [Steve Henson]
10303
10304 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10305 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10306 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10307 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10308 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10309 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10310 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10311 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10312 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10313 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10314 [Steve Henson]
10315
10316 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10317 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10318 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10319 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10320
10321 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10322 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10323 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10324 omit any duplicate addresses.
10325 [Steve Henson]
10326
10327 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10328 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10329 [Bodo Moeller]
10330
10331 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10332 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10333 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10334 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10335 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10336 [Bodo Moeller]
10337
10338 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10339 software:
10340 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10341 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10342 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10343 Free => OPENSSL_free
10344 [Richard Levitte]
10345
10346 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10347 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10348 [Bodo Moeller]
10349
10350 *) CygWin32 support.
10351 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10352
10353 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10354 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10355 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10356 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10357 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10358 approach.
10359 [Geoff Thorpe]
10360
10361 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10362 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10363 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10364 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10365 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10366 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10367 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10368 [Geoff Thorpe]
10369
10370 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10371 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10372 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10373 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10374 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10375 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10376 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10377 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10378 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10379 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10380 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10381 [Bodo Moeller]
10382
10383 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10384 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10385 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10386 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10387 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10388
10389 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10390 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10391 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10392 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10393 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10394
10395 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10396 ciphers.
10397
10398 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10399 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10400 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10401 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10402
10403 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10404
10405 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10406 of macros.
10407
10408 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10409 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10410 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10411 flags.
10412
10413 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10414 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10415 any installed hardware versions can.
10416 [Steve Henson]
10417
10418 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10419 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10420 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10421 number.
10422 [Bodo Moeller]
10423
10424 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10425 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10426 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10427 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10428 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10429
10430 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10431 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10435 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10436 [Richard Levitte]
10437
10438 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10439 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10440 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10441 features.
10442 [Steve Henson]
10443
10444 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10445 [Ulf Möller]
10446
10447 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10448 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10449 but no ssl client purpose.
10450 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10451
10452 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10453 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10454 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10455 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10456 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10457 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10458 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10459 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10460 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10461 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10462 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10463 [Steve Henson]
10464
10465 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10466 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10467 be obtained from the error queue.
10468 [Bodo Moeller]
10469
10470 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10471 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10472 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10473 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10474 [Bodo Moeller]
10475
10476 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10477 [Ulf Möller]
10478
10479 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10480 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10481 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10482 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10483 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10484 [Geoff Thorpe]
10485
10486 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10487 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10488 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10489 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10490 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10491 [Geoff Thorpe]
10492
10493 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10494 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10495 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10496 may not be NULL.
10497 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10498
10499 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10500 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10501 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10502 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10503 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10504 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10505 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10506 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10507 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10508 or "the configuration storage API"...
10509
10510 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10511
10512 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10513 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10514
10515 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10516
10517 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10518
10519 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10520 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10521 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10522 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10523 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10524 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10525 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10526
10527 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10528 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10529 [Richard Levitte]
10530
10531 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10532 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10533 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10534 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10535 [Bodo Moeller]
10536
10537 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10538 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10539 them in a portable way.
10540 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10541
10542 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10543
10544 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10545
10546 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10547 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10548
10549 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10550 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10551 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10552 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10553
10554 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10555 was larger than the MD block size.
10556 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10557
10558 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10559 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10560 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10561 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10562 components.
10563 [Steve Henson]
10564
10565 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10566 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10567 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10568
10569 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10570 discouraged.
10571 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10572
10573 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10574 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10575 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10576 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10577 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10578 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10579
10580 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10581 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10582
10583 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10584 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10585 [Bodo Moeller]
10586
10587 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10588 [Bodo Moeller]
10589
10590 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10591 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10592 its own key.
10593 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10594 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10595 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10596 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10597 [Bodo Moeller]
10598
10599 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10600 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10601 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10602 does not suppress any output.
10603 [Richard Levitte]
10604
10605 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10606 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10607 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10608 with all the associated security issues.
10609
10610 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10611 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10612 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10613 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10614 use the value in the default purpose.
10615 [Steve Henson]
10616
10617 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10618 and fix a memory leak.
10619 [Steve Henson]
10620
10621 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10622 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10623 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10624 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10625 [Bodo Moeller]
10626
10627 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10628 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10629 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10630 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10631 [Bodo Moeller]
10632
10633 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10634 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10635 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10636 [Bodo Moeller]
10637
10638 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10639 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10640 [Bodo Moeller]
10641
10642 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10643 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10644 which was free.
10645 [Steve Henson]
10646
10647 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10648 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10649 [Bodo Moeller]
10650
10651 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10652 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10653 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10654 [Bodo Moeller]
10655
10656 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10657 number generation fails.
10658 [Bodo Moeller]
10659
10660 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10661 [Bodo Moeller]
10662
10663 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10664 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10665
10666 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10667 [Ulf Möller]
10668
10669 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10670 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10671
10672 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10673 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10674
10675 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10676
10677 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10678 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10679 [Steve Henson]
10680
10681 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10682 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10683
10684 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10685 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10686 [Ulf Möller]
10687
10688 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10689 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10690 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10691 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10692 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10693 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10694
10695 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10696 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10697 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10698 for example.
10699 [Steve Henson]
10700
10701 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10702 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10703 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10704 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10705 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10706 counter, some don't.)
10707 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10708 counters or duplicate objects.
10709 [Steve Henson]
10710
10711 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10712 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10713 [Steve Henson]
10714
10715 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10716 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10717 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10718
10719 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10720 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10721 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10722 or -rand.
10723 [Ulf Möller]
10724
10725 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10726 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10727 [Steve Henson]
10728
10729 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10730 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10731 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10732 cipher list.
10733 [Steve Henson]
10734
10735 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10736 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10737 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10738 [Steve Henson]
10739
10740 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10741 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10742 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10743 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10744 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10745 should work without changes.
10746 [Richard Levitte]
10747
10748 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10749 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10750 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10751 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10752 must be defined. E.g.,
10753 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10754 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10755 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10756 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10757
10758 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10759 record layer.
10760 [Bodo Moeller]
10761
10762 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10763 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10764 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10765 [Steve Henson]
10766
10767 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10768 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10769 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10770 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10771 [Steve Henson]
10772
10773 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10774 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10775 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10776 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10777 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10778 is prompted for as usual.
10779 [Steve Henson]
10780
10781 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10782 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10783 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10784 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10785
10786 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10787 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10788 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10789 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10790 [Steve Henson]
10791
10792 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10793 [Andy Polyakov]
10794
10795 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10796 of seed file.
10797 [Steve Henson]
10798
10799 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10800 [Bodo Moeller]
10801
10802 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10803 [Steve Henson]
10804
10805 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10806 bits.
10807 [Ulf Möller]
10808
10809 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10810 [Ulf Möller]
10811
10812 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10813 [Andy Polyakov]
10814
10815 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10816 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10817 [Ulf Möller]
10818
10819 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10820 options to produce them.
10821 [Steve Henson]
10822
10823 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10824 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10825 [Ulf Möller]
10826
10827 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10828 for p == 0.
10829 [Ulf Möller]
10830
10831 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10832 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10833 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10834 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10835 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10836 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10837 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10838 [Steve Henson]
10839
10840 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10841 [Steve Henson]
10842
10843 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10844 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10845 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10846 [Bodo Moeller]
10847
10848 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10849 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10850
10851 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10852 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10853 [Ulf Möller]
10854
10855 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10856 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10857 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10858 has already seen).
10859 [Bodo Moeller]
10860
10861 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10862 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10863
10864 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10865 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10866 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10867 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10868 generation becomes much faster.
10869
10870 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10871 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10872 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10873 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10874 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10875 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10876 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10877 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10878 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10879 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10880 [Bodo Moeller]
10881
10882 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10883 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10884 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10885 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10886 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10887 trial division stage.
10888 [Bodo Moeller]
10889
10890 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10891 as ASN1_TIME.
10892 [Steve Henson]
10893
10894 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10895 [Steve Henson]
10896
10897 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10898 [Ulf Möller]
10899
10900 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10901 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10902 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10903 the comments.
10904 [Ulf Möller]
10905
10906 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10907 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10908 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10909 [Bodo Moeller]
10910
10911 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10912 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10913 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10914 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10915
10916 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10917 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10918 [Steve Henson]
10919
10920 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10921 [Ulf Möller]
10922
10923 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10924 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10925 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10926 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10927 [Ulf Möller]
10928
10929 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
10930 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
10931 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
10932 [Ulf Möller]
10933
10934 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
10935 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
10936 (instead of parameters) in future.
10937 [Steve Henson]
10938
10939 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
10940 when a new cipher list is set.
10941 [Steve Henson]
10942
10943 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
10944 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
10945 wrong.
10946
10947 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
10948 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
10949 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
10950
10951 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
10952 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
10953 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
10954 an error is flagged.
10955
10956 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
10957 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
10958 the readability was also increased :-)
10959 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10960
10961 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
10962 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
10963 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
10964 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
10965 as the root CA.
10966 [Steve Henson]
10967
10968 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
10969 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
10970 [Steve Henson]
10971
10972 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
10973 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
10974 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
10975 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
10976 instead.
10977
10978 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
10979 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
10980 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
10981 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
10982 because they handle more complex structures.)
10983 [Steve Henson]
10984
10985 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10986 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10987 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10988 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10989
10990 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10991 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10992 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10993 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10994 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10995 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10996 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10997 [Ulf Möller]
10998
10999 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
11000 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
11001 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
11002 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
11003 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
11004 [Bodo Moeller]
11005
11006 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
11007 [Bodo Moeller]
11008
11009 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
11010 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
11011 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
11012 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
11013 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
11014 to use this.
11015
11016 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
11017 code.
11018 [Steve Henson]
11019
11020 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
11021 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
11022 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
11023 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
11024 [Steve Henson]
11025
11026 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
11027 [Ulf Möller]
11028
11029 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
11030 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
11031 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
11032 international characters are used.
11033
11034 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
11035 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
11036 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
11037 in ASN1 order.
11038 [Steve Henson]
11039
11040 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
11041 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
11042 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
11043 request.
11044
11045 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
11046 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
11047 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
11048 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11049 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11050 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11051
11052 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11053 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11054 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11055 be handled by the string table functions.
11056
11057 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11058 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11059 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11060 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11061 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11062 types at all.
11063 [Steve Henson]
11064
11065 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11066 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11067 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11068 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11069 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11070
11071 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11072 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11073 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11074 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11075 [Bodo Moeller]
11076
11077 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11078 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11079 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11080 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11081 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11082 SHA1.
11083 [Andy Polyakov]
11084
11085 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11086 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11087 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11088 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11089 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11090 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11091 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11092 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11093
11094 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11095 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11096 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11097 [Steve Henson]
11098
11099 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11100 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11101 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11102 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11103 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11104 support to pkcs8 application.
11105 [Steve Henson]
11106
11107 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11108 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11109 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11110 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11111 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11112 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11113 [Bodo Moeller]
11114
11115 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11116 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11117 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11118 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11119 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11120 consistency.
11121 [Bodo Moeller]
11122
11123 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11124 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11125 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11126 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11127 example.
11128 [Steve Henson]
11129
11130 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11131 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11132 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11133 and any application specific purposes.
11134
11135 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11136 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11137 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11138 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11139 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11140 if the certificate is self signed.
11141 [Steve Henson]
11142
11143 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11144 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11145 [Steve Henson]
11146
11147 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11148 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11149 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11150 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11151 [Steve Henson]
11152
11153 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11154 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11155 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11156 Update documentation.
11157 [Steve Henson]
11158
11159 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11160 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11161 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11162 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11163 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11164 [Steve Henson]
11165
11166 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11167 for details.
11168 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11169
11170 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11171 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11172 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11173 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11174 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11175 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11176 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11177 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11178 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11179 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11180
11181 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11182
11183 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11184 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11185 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11186 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11187 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11188
11189 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11190 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11191 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11192 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11193 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11194 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11195 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11196 request additional information:
11197 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11198 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11199
11200 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11201 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11202 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11203 options.
11204
11205 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11206 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11207
11208 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11209 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11210 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11211
11212 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11213 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11214
11215 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11216 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11217 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11218 algorithm.
11219 [Steve Henson]
11220
11221 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11222 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11223 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11224
11225 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11226 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11227 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11228 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11229 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11230 included in OpenSSL.
11231 [Steve Henson]
11232
11233 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11234 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11235 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11236 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11237 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11238 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11239 [Bodo Moeller]
11240
11241 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11242 PKCS12 structure.
11243 [Steve Henson]
11244
11245 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11246 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11247 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11248 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11249 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11250 structure.
11251 [Steve Henson]
11252
11253 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11254 need initialising.
11255 [Steve Henson]
11256
11257 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11258 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11259 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11260 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11261 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11262 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11263 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11264 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11265 be maintained manually.
11266
11267 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11268 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11269 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11270 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11271 work because people forget to call this function]
11272 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11273 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11274 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11275 [Steve Henson]
11276
11277 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11278 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11279 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11280 should be discouraged from doing it.
11281 [Ben Laurie]
11282
11283 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11284 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11285 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11286 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11287 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11288 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11289 [Steve Henson]
11290
11291 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11292 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11293 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11294
11295 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11296 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11297 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11298
11299 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11300 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11301 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11302 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11303 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11304 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11305
11306 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11307 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11308 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11309
11310 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11311 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11312 and vice versa.
11313
11314 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11315 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11316 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11317 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11318 [Steve Henson]
11319
11320 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11321 [Steve Henson]
11322
11323 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11324 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11325 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11326 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11327 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11328 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11329 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11330 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11331 keys so we should be OK.
11332
11333 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11334 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11335 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11336 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11337 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11338 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11339 stay in the name of compatibility.
11340
11341 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11342 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11343 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11344
11345 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11346 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11347 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11348 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11349 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11350 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11351 supplied key).
11352 [Steve Henson]
11353
11354 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11355 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11356 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11357 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11358 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11359 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11360 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11361 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11362 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11363 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11364 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11365 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11366 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11367 [Steve Henson]
11368
11369 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11370 [Steve Henson]
11371
11372 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11373 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11374 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11375 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11376 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11377 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11378 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11379 openssl verify ss.pem
11380 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11381 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11382 is OK.
11383 [Steve Henson]
11384
11385 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11386 (and add it to external session representation).
11387 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11388 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11389 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11390 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11391 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11392 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11393 security holes.
11394 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11395
11396 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11397 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11398 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11399 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11400
11401 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11402 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11403 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11404 [Steve Henson]
11405
11406 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11407 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11408 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11409 code.
11410 [Steve Henson]
11411
11412 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11413 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11414 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11415
11416 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11417 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11418 certificate auxiliary information.
11419 [Steve Henson]
11420
11421 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11422 the 'enc' command.
11423 [Steve Henson]
11424
11425 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11426 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11427 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11428 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11429 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11430 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11431 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11432 [Richard Levitte]
11433
11434 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11435 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11436 [Steve Henson]
11437
11438 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11439 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11440 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11441 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11442 [Steve Henson]
11443
11444 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11445 [Steve Henson]
11446
11447 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11448 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11449 [Steve Henson]
11450
11451 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11452 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11453 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11454 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11455 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11456 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11457 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11458 using the new 'x509' options.
11459
11460 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11461 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11462 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11463 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11464 for all purposes.
11465 [Steve Henson]
11466
11467 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11468 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11469 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11470 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11471 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11472 [Mark Cox]
11473
11474 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11475 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11476 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11477 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11478 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11479 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11480 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11481 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11482 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11483 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11484 [Steve Henson]
11485
11486 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11487 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11488 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11489 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11490 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11491 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11492 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11493 [Steve Henson]
11494
11495 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11496 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11497 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11498 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11499 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11500 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11501 openssl.cnf for more info.
11502 [Steve Henson]
11503
11504 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11505 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11506 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11507 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11508 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11509 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11510 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11511 md should be large enough anyway.
11512 [Bodo Moeller]
11513
11514 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11515 for handling the random seed file.
11516
11517 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11518 ca,
11519 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11520 s_client,
11521 s_server,
11522 x509 (when signing).
11523 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11524 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11525 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11526
11527 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11528 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11529 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11530 that support '-rand'.
11531 [Bodo Moeller]
11532
11533 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11534 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11535 [Bodo Moeller]
11536
11537 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11538 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11539 [Bill Perry]
11540
11541 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11542 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11543 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11544 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11545 is suitable.
11546 [Steve Henson]
11547
11548 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11549 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11550 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11551 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11552 [Steve Henson]
11553
11554 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11555 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11556 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11557 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11558 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11559 print out all the purposes.
11560 [Steve Henson]
11561
11562 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11563 functions.
11564 [Steve Henson]
11565
11566 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11567 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11568 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11569 single function call.
11570 [Steve Henson]
11571
11572 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11573 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11574 [Andy Polyakov]
11575
11576 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11577 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11578 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11579 [Steve Henson]
11580
11581 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11582 when producing the local key id.
11583 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11584
11585 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11586 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11587 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11588 "server.pem".
11589 [Steve Henson]
11590
11591 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11592 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11593 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11594 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11595 [Steve Henson]
11596
11597 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11598 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11599 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11600 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11601
11602 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11603 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11604 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11605 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11606
11607 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11608 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11609 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11610 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11611 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11612 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11613 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11614 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11615 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11616 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11617 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11618 trivial: move one line.
11619 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11620
11621 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11622 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11623 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11624 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11625 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11626 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11627 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11628 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11629 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11630 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11631 with an event loop for example.
11632 [Steve Henson]
11633
11634 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11635 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11636 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11637 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11638 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11639 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11640 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11641 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11642 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11643 [Steve Henson]
11644
11645 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11646 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11647 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11648 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11649 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11650 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11651 [Steve Henson]
11652
11653 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11654 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11655 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11656 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11657
11658 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11659 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11660 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11661 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11662 key generation.
11663 [Steve Henson]
11664
11665 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11666 (still largely untested)
11667 [Bodo Moeller]
11668
11669 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11670 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11671 [Steve Henson]
11672
11673 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11674 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11675 [Steve Henson]
11676
11677 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11678 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11679 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11680 [Bodo Moeller]
11681
11682 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11683 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11684 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11685 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11686 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11687 [Steve Henson]
11688
11689 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11690 [Andy Polyakov]
11691
11692 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11693 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11694 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11695 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11696 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11697 in ca.
11698 [Steve Henson]
11699
11700 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11701 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11702 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11703 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11704 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11705 [Steve Henson]
11706
11707 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11708 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11709 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11710 are otherwise ignored at present.
11711 [Steve Henson]
11712
11713 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11714 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11715 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11716 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11717 copied until the next read.
11718 [Steve Henson]
11719
11720 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11721 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11722 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11723 [Steve Henson]
11724
11725 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11726 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11727 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11728 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11729 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11730 associated functions.
11731 [Steve Henson]
11732
11733 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11734 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11735 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11736 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11737 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11738 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11739 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11740 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11741 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11742 memory BIOs.
11743 [Steve Henson]
11744
11745 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11746 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11747 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11748 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11749 [Bodo Moeller]
11750
11751 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11752 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11753 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11754 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11755 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11756 functionality.
11757 [Steve Henson]
11758
11759 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11760 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11761 under Win32.
11762 [Steve Henson]
11763
11764 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11765 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11766 extensions to be obtained and added.
11767 [Steve Henson]
11768
11769 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11770 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11771 [Bodo Moeller]
11772
11773 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11774
11775 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11776 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11777
11778 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11779 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11780
11781 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11782 program.
11783 [Steve Henson]
11784
11785 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11786 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11787 DH parameters contain its length).
11788
11789 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11790 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11791 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11792 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11793 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11794 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11795 utter importance to use
11796 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11797 or
11798 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11799 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11800 attacks may become possible!
11801 [Bodo Moeller]
11802
11803 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11804 [Bodo Moeller]
11805
11806 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11807 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11808 [Steve Henson]
11809
11810 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11811 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11812 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11813 or long name.
11814 [Steve Henson]
11815
11816 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11817 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11818 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11819 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11820 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11821 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11822 private key operations.
11823 [Steve Henson]
11824
11825 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11826 [Andy Polyakov]
11827
11828 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11829 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11830 to
11831 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11832 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11833 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11834 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11835 the password callback is called.
11836 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11837
11838 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11839
11840 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11841 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11842 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11843 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11844 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11845 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11846 this will work.
11847
11848 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11849 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11850 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11851 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11852 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11853 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11854 [Bodo Moeller]
11855
11856 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11857 [Andy Polyakov]
11858
11859 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11860 delete an unused file.
11861 [Ulf Möller]
11862
11863 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11864 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11865 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11866 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11867 [Steve Henson]
11868
11869 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11870 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11871 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11872 of an error.
11873 [Bodo Moeller]
11874
11875 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11876 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11877 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11878
11879 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11880 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11881 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11882 comparison" warnings.
11883 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11884 [Steve Henson]
11885
11886 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11887 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11888 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11889 [Steve Henson]
11890
11891 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11892 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11893
11894 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11895 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11896
11897 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11898 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11899 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11900
11901 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11902 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11903 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11904 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11905 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11906 this bug.
11907 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11908
11909 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11910 The interface is as follows:
11911 Applications can use
11912 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11913 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11914 "off" is now the default.
11915 The library internally uses
11916 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11917 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11918 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11919
11920 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11921 even the default) are now avoided.
11922
11923 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11924 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11925 than just having a counter.
11926
11927 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11928
11929 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
11930 extensions.
11931 [Bodo Moeller]
11932
11933 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
11934 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
11935 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
11936 Initial "mode" flags are:
11937
11938 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
11939 a single record has been written.
11940 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
11941 retries use the same buffer location.
11942 (But all of the contents must be
11943 copied!)
11944 [Bodo Moeller]
11945
11946 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
11947 worked.
11948
11949 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
11950 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
11951
11952 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
11953 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
11954 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
11955 [Steve Henson]
11956
11957 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
11958 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
11959 test programs.
11960 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
11961
11962 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
11963 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
11964 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
11965 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
11966 point to the end.
11967 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
11968 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
11969
11970 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
11971 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
11972 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
11973 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
11974 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
11975 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
11976 [Steve Henson]
11977
11978 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
11979 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
11980 necessary function names.
11981 [Steve Henson]
11982
11983 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11984 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11985 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11986 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11987 [Bodo Moeller]
11988
11989 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11990 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11991 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11992 [Steve Henson]
11993
11994 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11995 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11996 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11997 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11998 such programs?)
11999 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
12000 need locks.
12001 [Bodo Moeller]
12002
12003 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
12004 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
12005 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
12006 [Bodo Moeller]
12007
12008 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
12009 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
12010 appropriate.
12011 [Bodo Moeller]
12012
12013 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
12014 for the encoded length.
12015 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
12016
12017 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
12018 [Steve Henson]
12019
12020 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
12021 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
12022 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
12023 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
12024 [Steve Henson]
12025
12026 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
12027 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
12028 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12029
12030 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
12031 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
12032 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
12033 unusual formatting.
12034 [Steve Henson]
12035
12036 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
12037 to use the new extension code.
12038 [Steve Henson]
12039
12040 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
12041 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
12042 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
12043 constant.
12044 [Steve Henson]
12045
12046 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
12047 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
12048 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12049 [Bodo Moeller]
12050
12051 #if 0
12052 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12053 [Ben Laurie]
12054 #else
12055 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12056 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12057 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12058 #endif
12059
12060 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12061 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12062 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12063 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12064 [Ben Laurie]
12065
12066 *) DES library cleanups.
12067 [Ulf Möller]
12068
12069 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12070 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12071 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12072 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12073 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12074 of v2.0.
12075 [Steve Henson]
12076
12077 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12078 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12079 [Bodo Moeller]
12080
12081 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12082 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12083 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12084 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12085 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12086 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12087 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12088 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12089 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12090 [Steve Henson]
12091
12092 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12093 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12094 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12095 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12096 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12097 value doesn't matter.
12098 [Steve Henson]
12099
12100 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12101 support mutable.
12102 [Ben Laurie]
12103
12104 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12105 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12106 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12107 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12108
12109 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12110 [Ulf Möller]
12111
12112 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12113 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12114 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12115
12116 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12117 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12118
12119 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12120 [Ben Laurie]
12121
12122 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12123 [Ben Laurie]
12124
12125 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12126 [Ben Laurie]
12127
12128 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12129 [Bodo Moeller]
12130
12131
12132 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12133
12134 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12135
12136 *) Updated some demos.
12137 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12138
12139 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12140 [Wu Zhigang]
12141
12142 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12143 [Steve Henson]
12144
12145 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12146 [Steve Henson]
12147
12148 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12149 instead of using a fixed path.
12150 [Bodo Moeller]
12151
12152 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12153 [Andy Polyakov]
12154
12155 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12156 [Richard Levitte]
12157
12158
12159 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12160
12161 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12162 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12163 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12164
12165 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12166 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12167 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12168 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12169 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12170 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12171 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12172 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12173 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12174 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12175 [Steve Henson]
12176
12177 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12178 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12179 [Steve Henson]
12180
12181 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12182 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12183 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12184 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12185 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12186
12187 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12188 [Bodo Moeller]
12189
12190 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12191 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12192 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12193 [Steve Henson]
12194
12195 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12196 [Ben Laurie]
12197
12198 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12199 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12200 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12201 key elements as negative integers.
12202 [Steve Henson]
12203
12204 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12205 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12206
12207 *) VMS support.
12208 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12209
12210 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12211 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12212 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12213 [Steve Henson]
12214
12215 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12216 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12217 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12218 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12219 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12220 [Bodo Moeller]
12221
12222 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12223 [Ulf Möller]
12224
12225 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12226 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12227 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12228 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12229
12230 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12231 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12232 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12233
12234 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12235 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12236 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12237 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12238 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12239 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12240 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12241 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12242 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12243
12244 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12245 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12246 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12247 does not influence s as it used to.
12248
12249 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12250 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12251 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12252 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12253 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12254 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12255 [Bodo Moeller]
12256
12257 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12258 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12259 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12260 key type.
12261 [Steve Henson]
12262
12263 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12264 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12265 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12266 and 'x509').
12267 [Steve Henson]
12268
12269 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12270 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12271 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12272 extension option.
12273 [Steve Henson]
12274
12275 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12276 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12277 [Ben Laurie]
12278
12279 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12280 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12281
12282 *) Support Mingw32.
12283 [Ulf Möller]
12284
12285 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12286 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12287
12288 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12289 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12290
12291 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12292 [Ulf Möller]
12293
12294 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12295 [Anonymous]
12296
12297 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12298 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12299
12300 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12301 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12302 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12303 DER-encoded.)
12304 [Bodo Moeller]
12305
12306 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12307 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12308 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12309 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12310 now it really counts the depth.
12311 [Bodo Moeller]
12312
12313 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12314 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12315 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12316 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12317 didn't match the private key).
12318
12319 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12320 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12321 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12322 [Bodo Moeller]
12323
12324 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12325 [Ulf Möller]
12326
12327 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12328 David Harris.
12329 [Bodo Moeller]
12330
12331 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12332 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12333 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12334 [Bodo Moeller]
12335
12336 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12337 [Bodo Moeller]
12338
12339 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12340 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12341 such as /usr/local/bin.
12342 [Bodo Moeller]
12343
12344 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12345 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12346
12347 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12348 [Ulf Möller]
12349
12350 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12351 extension adding in x509 utility.
12352 [Steve Henson]
12353
12354 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12355 [Ulf Möller]
12356
12357 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12358 prototypes.
12359 [Steve Henson]
12360
12361 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12362 [Ulf Möller]
12363
12364 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12365 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12366 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12367 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12368 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12369 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12370 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12371 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12372 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12373 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12374 [Steve Henson]
12375
12376 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12377 [Bodo Moeller]
12378
12379 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12380 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12381 [Bodo Moeller]
12382
12383 *) Fix some race conditions.
12384 [Bodo Moeller]
12385
12386 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12387 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12388 [Steve Henson]
12389
12390 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12391 [Ulf Möller]
12392
12393 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12394 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12395 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12396 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12397
12398 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12399 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12400
12401 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12402 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12403 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12404
12405 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12406 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12407
12408 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12409 [Ulf Möller]
12410
12411 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12412 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12413
12414 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12415 [Ulf Möller]
12416
12417 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12418 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12419
12420 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12421 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12422 [Steve Henson]
12423
12424 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12425 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12426 [Ben Laurie]
12427
12428 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12429 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12430 [Steve Henson]
12431
12432 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12433 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12434 [Steve Henson]
12435
12436 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12437 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12438 [Steve Henson]
12439
12440 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12441 support typesafe stack.
12442 [Steve Henson]
12443
12444 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12445 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12446
12447 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12448 old X509V3 handling code.
12449 [Steve Henson]
12450
12451 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12452 [Ulf Möller]
12453
12454 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12455 [Bodo Moeller]
12456
12457 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12458 [Ben Laurie]
12459
12460 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12461 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12462
12463 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12464 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12465 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12466 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12467 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12468 [Ben Laurie]
12469
12470 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12471 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12472 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12473 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12474 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12475
12476 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12477 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12478 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12479 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12480
12481 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12482 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12483 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12484 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12485
12486 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12487 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12488 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12489 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12490 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12491 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12492 [Bodo Moeller]
12493
12494 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12495 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12496 [Bodo Moeller]
12497
12498 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12499 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12500 [Ulf Möller]
12501
12502 *) Tweaks to Configure
12503 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12504
12505 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12506 yet...
12507 [Steve Henson]
12508
12509 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12510 [Ulf Möller]
12511
12512 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12513 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12514 [Ulf Möller]
12515
12516 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12517 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12518 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12519 [Bodo Moeller]
12520
12521 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12522 [Bodo Moeller]
12523
12524 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12525 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12526 [Steve Henson]
12527
12528 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12529 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12530 to library startup routines.
12531 [Steve Henson]
12532
12533 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12534 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12535 codes along the way.
12536 [Steve Henson]
12537
12538 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12539 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12540 objects to objects.h
12541 [Steve Henson]
12542
12543 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12544 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12545 [Steve Henson]
12546
12547 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12548 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12549
12550 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12551 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12552 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12553
12554 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12555 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12556 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12557
12558 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12559 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12560 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12561
12562
12563 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12564
12565 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12566 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12567 [Ben Laurie]
12568
12569 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12570 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12571 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12572 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12573 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12574
12575 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12576 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12577 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12578 document.
12579 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12580
12581 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12582 Malloc, Free.
12583 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12584
12585 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12586 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12587
12588 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12589 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12590 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12591 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12592
12593 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12594 [Ben Laurie]
12595
12596 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12597 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12598 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12599 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12600 [Steve Henson]
12601
12602 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12603 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12604 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12605 [Steve Henson]
12606
12607 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12608 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12609 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12610 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12611 installed as `perl').
12612 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12613
12614 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12615 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12616
12617 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12618 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12619 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12620 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12621 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12622 [Steve Henson]
12623
12624 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12625 [Ben Laurie]
12626
12627 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12628 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12629 is horrible: I feel ill....
12630 [Steve Henson]
12631
12632 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12633 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12634 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12635 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12636 [Steve Henson]
12637
12638 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12639 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12640
12641 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12642 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12643 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12644 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12645
12646 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12647 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12648 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12649 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12650 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12651 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12652 openssl_bio.xs.
12653 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12654
12655 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12656 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12657
12658 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12659 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12660
12661 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12662 [Ben Laurie]
12663
12664 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12665 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12666 in CRLs.
12667 [Steve Henson]
12668
12669 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12670 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12671 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
12672 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12673 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12674 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12675 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12676 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12677 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12678 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12679 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12680
12681 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12682 [Ben Laurie]
12683
12684 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12685 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12686 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12687 for linking it into DSOs.
12688 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12689
12690 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12691 Fixed.
12692 [Ben Laurie]
12693
12694 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12695 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12696 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12697 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12698 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12699 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12700
12701 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12702 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12703 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12704 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12705 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12706 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12707 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12708
12709 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12710 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12711 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12712 encryption.
12713 [Ben Laurie]
12714
12715 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12716 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12717 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12718 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12719 [Steve Henson]
12720
12721 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12722 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12723 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12724 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12725 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12726 field as blank.
12727 [Steve Henson]
12728
12729 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12730 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12731 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12732 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12733 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12734
12735 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12736 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12737 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12738
12739 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12740 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12741
12742 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12743 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12744 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12745 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12746 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12747 [Steve Henson]
12748
12749 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12750 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12751 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12752 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12753 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12754 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12755 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12756 [Ben Laurie]
12757
12758 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12759 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12760 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12761 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12762 [Ben Laurie]
12763
12764 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12765 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12766
12767 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12768 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12769 [Steve Henson]
12770
12771 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12772 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12773 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12774 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12775 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12776 (e.g. s_server).
12777 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12778 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12779 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12780 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12781 no way to reconfigure them.
12782 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12783 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12784 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12785 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12786 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12787 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12788
12789 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12790 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12791 recognized by the users.
12792 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12793
12794 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12795 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12796 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12797 already masked variable.
12798 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12799
12800 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12801 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12802
12803 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12804 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12805 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12806 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12807
12808 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12809 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12810 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12811
12812 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12813 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12814 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12815 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12816 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12817 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12818 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12819 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12820 now, too.
12821 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12822
12823 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12824 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12825 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12826
12827 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12828 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12829 config file.
12830 [Steve Henson]
12831
12832 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12833 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12834
12835 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12836 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12837 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12838 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12839 [Ben Laurie]
12840
12841 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12842 [Steve Henson]
12843
12844 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12845 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12846
12847 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12848 [Ben Laurie]
12849
12850 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12851 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12852 [Steve Henson]
12853
12854 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12855 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12856 [Steve Henson]
12857
12858 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12859 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12860 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12861 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12862 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12863 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12864 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12865 Ben Laurie]
12866
12867 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12868 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12869
12870 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12871 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12872 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12873 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12874 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12875
12876 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12877 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12878 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12879 [Steve Henson]
12880
12881 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12882 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12883 an example.
12884 [Steve Henson]
12885
12886 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12887 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12888 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12889
12890 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12891 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12892 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12893 build instructions.
12894 [Steve Henson]
12895
12896 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12897 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12898 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12899 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12900 [Steve Henson]
12901
12902 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12903 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12904 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12905 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12906 [Ben Laurie]
12907
12908 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12909 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12910 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12911 so it wasn't spotted.
12912 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12913
12914 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12915 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12916 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12917 vectors if you have them.
12918 [Ben Laurie]
12919
12920 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12921 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12922 [Ben Laurie]
12923
12924 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12925 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12926 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12927 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12928 If you do a:
12929 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
12930 it will update them.
12931 [Steve Henson]
12932
12933 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
12934 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
12935 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
12936 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
12937 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
12938 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
12939 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
12940 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12941
12942 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
12943 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
12944 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
12945 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
12946 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
12947 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
12948 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
12949 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
12950 the crypto/md/ stuff).
12951 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12952
12953 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
12954 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
12955 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
12956 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
12957 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
12958 [Steve Henson]
12959
12960 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
12961 INTEGER code.
12962 [Steve Henson]
12963
12964 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
12965 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12966
12967 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
12968 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12969
12970 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
12971 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
12972 [Ben Laurie]
12973
12974 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
12975 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
12976
12977 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
12978 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
12979
12980 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
12981 [Steve Henson]
12982
12983 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12984 few typos.
12985 [Steve Henson]
12986
12987 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12988 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12989 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12990 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12991
12992 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12993 [Steve Henson]
12994
12995 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12996 [Steve Henson]
12997
12998 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12999 [Steve Henson]
13000
13001 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
13002 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
13003 [Steve Henson]
13004
13005 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
13006 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
13007 CA extensions.
13008 [Steve Henson]
13009
13010 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
13011 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
13012 [Steve Henson]
13013
13014 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
13015 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
13016 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
13017 [Steve Henson]
13018
13019 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
13020 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
13021 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
13022 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
13023 properly to be processed.
13024 [Steve Henson]
13025
13026 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
13027 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
13028 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
13029 [Ben Laurie]
13030
13031 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
13032 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
13033
13034 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
13035 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
13036 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
13037 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
13038 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
13039 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
13040 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
13041 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
13042 or delete all the .err files.
13043 [Steve Henson]
13044
13045 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
13046 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
13047 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
13048 to regenerate it if needed.
13049 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13050 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13051
13052 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13053 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13054
13055 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13056 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13057 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13058 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13059 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13060 [Steve Henson]
13061
13062 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13063 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13064
13065 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13066 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13067
13068 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13069 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13070 error, but didn't set one).
13071 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13072
13073 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13074 [Ben Laurie]
13075
13076 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13077 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13078 [Steve Henson]
13079
13080 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13081 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13082
13083 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13084 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13085 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13086 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13087 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13088 OID is not part of the table.
13089 [Steve Henson]
13090
13091 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13092 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13093 [Ben Laurie]
13094
13095 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13096 [Ben Laurie]
13097
13098 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13099 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13100 was "1234").
13101 [Steve Henson]
13102
13103 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13104 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13105
13106 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13107 NULL pointers.
13108 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13109
13110 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13111 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13112
13113 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13114 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13115
13116 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13117 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13118
13119 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13120 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13121 [Ben Laurie]
13122
13123 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13124 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13125 [Steve Henson]
13126
13127 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13128 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13129
13130 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13131 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13132
13133 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13134 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13135
13136 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13137 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13138
13139 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13140 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13141 unused in the certificate verification process.
13142 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13143
13144 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13145 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13146 [Steve Henson]
13147
13148 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13149 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13150 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13151
13152 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13153 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13154 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13155 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13156 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13157
13158 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13159 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13160 [Steve Henson]
13161
13162 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13163 [Steve Henson]
13164
13165 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13166 [Paul Sutton]
13167
13168 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13169 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13170
13171 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13172 [Ben Laurie]
13173
13174 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13175 [Ben Laurie]
13176
13177 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13178 [Ben Laurie]
13179
13180 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13181 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13182 other error libraries.
13183 [Steve Henson]
13184
13185 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13186 [Steve Henson]
13187
13188 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13189 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13190 be read in.
13191 [Steve Henson]
13192
13193 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13194 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13195 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13196 the new set of documentation files.
13197 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13198
13199 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13200 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13201 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13202 number of arguments.
13203 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13204
13205 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13206 [Ben Laurie]
13207
13208 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13209 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13210 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13211
13212 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13213 [Ben Laurie]
13214
13215 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13216 nextstep
13217 ncr-scde
13218 unixware-2.0
13219 unixware-2.0-pentium
13220 sco5-cc.
13221 [Ben Laurie]
13222
13223 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13224 before they are needed.
13225 [Ben Laurie]
13226
13227 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13228 [Ben Laurie]
13229
13230
13231 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13232
13233 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13234 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13235 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13236
13237 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13238 [Paul Sutton]
13239
13240 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13241 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13242 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13243
13244 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13245 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13246 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13247
13248 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13249 when "ssleay" is still not found.
13250 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13251
13252 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
13253 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
13254
13255 *) Updated the README file.
13256 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13257
13258 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
13259 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
13260 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13261
13262 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
13263 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
13264 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13265
13266 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
13267 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
13268 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
13269 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
13270 o removed obsolete TODO file
13271 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13272 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13273
13274 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13275 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13276 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13277 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
13278 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
13279 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13280 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13281
13282 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13283 [Mark J. Cox]
13284
13285 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13286 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13287 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until

13335 [Eric A. Young]
13336
13337 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
13338 [Eric A. Young]
13339
13340 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
13341 [Eric A. Young]
13342
13343 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
13344 [Eric A. Young]
13345
13346 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
13347 [Eric A. Young]
13348
13349 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
13350 [Eric A. Young]
13351

13364 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
13365 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
13366 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
13367 [Eric A. Young]
13368
13369 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
13370 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
13371 [Eric A. Young]
