4
5 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 [xx XXX 2002]
6
7 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
8 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
9 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
10 EC_GROUP_get_order()
11 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
12 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
13 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
14 adding different types of curves.
15 [Nils Larsch with input by Bodo Moeller]
16
17 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
18 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
19 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
20 [Bodo Moeller]
21
22 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
23 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
24
25 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
26 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
27 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
28 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
29
30 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
31
32 Add applications 'openssl ecdsaparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
33 (these are variants of 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
34
35 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
36 library. Most notably,
37 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
38 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
39 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
40 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
41 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
42 extracted before the specific public key.
43 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
44
45 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
46 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. The curves can be obtained from the new
47 functions
48 EC_GROUP_new_by_nid()
49 EC_GROUP_new_by_name()
50 Also add a 'nid' field to EC_GROUP objects, which can be accessed
51 via
52 EC_GROUP_set_nid()
53 EC_GROUP_get_nid()
54 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
55
56 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.7 [XX xxx 2002]
57
58 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
59 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
60 [Lutz Jaenicke]
61
62 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
63 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
64 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
65 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
66 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
67 [Lutz Jaenicke]
68
69 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
70 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
71 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
72 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
73 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
74 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
78 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
79 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
80 declaration has been changed from
81 int (*cb)()
82 into
83 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
84 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
85 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
86 has been changed into
87 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
88
89 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
90 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
91 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
92
93 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
94 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
95
96 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
97 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
98 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
99 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
100 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
101 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
102 always load it have also been added.
103 [Steve Henson]
104
105 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
106 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
107 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
108
109 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
110
111 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
112 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
113 because it couldn't be used for anything.
114
115 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
116 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
117 command line option can be used to specify an
118 alternative file.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
121 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
122 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
123 [Steve Henson]
124
125 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
126 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
127 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
128 [Steve Henson]
129
130 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
131 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
132 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
133 to work with the new engine framework.
134 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
135
136 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
137 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
138 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
139 to work with the new engine framework.
140 [Richard Levitte]
141
142 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
143 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
144 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
145
146 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
147 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
148
149 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
150 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
151 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
152 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
153 FORMAT_IISSGC.
154 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
155
156 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
157 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
158
159 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
160 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
161
162 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
163 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
164 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
165 [Ben Laurie]
166
167 *) Add new functions
168 ERR_peek_last_error
169 ERR_peek_last_error_line
170 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
171 These are similar to
172 ERR_peek_error
173 ERR_peek_error_line
174 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
175 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
176 still in the error queue.
177 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
178
179 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
180 like:
181 default_algorithms = ALL
182 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
183 [Steve Henson]
184
185 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) New experimental application configuration code.
189 [Steve Henson]
190
191 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
192 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
193 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
194 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
195
196 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
197 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
198
199 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
200 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
201
202 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
203 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
204 [Bodo Moeller]
205
206 *) New functions/macros
207
208 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
209 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
210 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
211 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
212
213 to request calling a callback function
214
215 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
216 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
217
218 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
219 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
220 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
221 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
222 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
223 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
224 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
225 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
226 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
227 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
228
229 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
230 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
231 [Bodo Moeller]
232
233 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
234 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
235 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
236 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
237 the configuration scripts.
238
239 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
240 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
241 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
242
243 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
244 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
245
246 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
247 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
248 when reusing an existing buffer.
249 [Bodo Moeller]
250
251 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
252 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
253 [Steve Henson]
254
255 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
256 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
257 [Ben Laurie]
258
259 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
260 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
261 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
262 has the same effect.
263 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
264
265 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
266 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
267 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
268 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
269 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
270 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
271 exception.
272
273 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
274 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
275 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
276 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
277
278 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
279 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
280 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
281 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
282
283 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
284 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
285 won't work.
286
287 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
288 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
289 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
290 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
291 default), and then completely removed.
292 [Richard Levitte]
293
294 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
295 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
296 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
297 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
298 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
299 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
300 particular extension is supported.
301 [Steve Henson]
302
303 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
304 to retain compatibility with existing code.
305 [Steve Henson]
306
307 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
308 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
309 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
310 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
311 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
312 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
313 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
314 requires the destination to be valid.
315
316 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
317 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
318 [Steve Henson]
319
320 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
321 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
322 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
323 [Bodo Moeller]
324
325 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
326 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
327
328 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
329 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
330 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
331 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
332 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
333 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
334 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
335 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
336 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
337 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
338 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
339 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
340 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
341 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
342 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
343 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
344 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
345 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
346 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
347 the new code.
348 [Geoff Thorpe]
349
350 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
351 [Steve Henson]
352
353 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
354 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
355 become part of libeay.num as well.
356 [Richard Levitte]
357
358 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
359 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
360 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
361 false once a handshake has been completed.
362 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
363 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
364 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
365 client has followed the request.)
366 [Bodo Moeller]
367
368 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
369 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
370 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
371 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
372 [Bodo Moeller]
373
374 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
375 [Steve Henson]
376
377 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
378 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
379 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
380 [Lutz Jaenicke]
381
382 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
383 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
384 [Lutz Jaenicke]
385
386 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
387 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
388 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
389 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
390 [Geoff Thorpe]
391
392 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
393 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
394 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
395 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
396 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
397 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
398 [Geoff Thorpe]
399
400 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
401 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
402 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
403 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
404 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
405 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
406 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
407 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
408 [Geoff Thorpe]
409
410 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
411 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
412 [Geoff Thorpe]
413
414 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
415 [Ben Laurie]
416
417 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
418 md_data void pointer.
419 [Ben Laurie]
420
421 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
422 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
423 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
424 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
425 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
426 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
427 [Ben Laurie]
428
429 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
430 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
431 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
432 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
433 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
434 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
435 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
436 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
437 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
438 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
439 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
440 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
441 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
442 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
443 rather than letting it slide.
444
445 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
446 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
447 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
448 [Geoff Thorpe]
449
450 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
451 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
452 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
453 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
454 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
455 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
456 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
457 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
458 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
459 [Geoff Thorpe]
460
461 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
462 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
463 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
464 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
465 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
466
467 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
468 [Geoff Thorpe]
469
470 *) Add EVP test program.
471 [Ben Laurie]
472
473 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
474 [Ben Laurie]
475
476 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
477 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
478 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
479 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
480 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
481 [Steve Henson]
482
483 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
484 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
485 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
486 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
487 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
488 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
489 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
490
491 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
492 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions. This also reduces
493 the number of header dependencies.
494 Usage example:
495
496 EVP_MD_CTX md;
497
498 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
499 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
500 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
501 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
502 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
503
504 [Ben Laurie]
505
506 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
507 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
508 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
509 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
510 anyway): E.g.,
511
512 des_key_schedule ks;
513
514 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
515 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
516
517 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
518 [Ben Laurie]
519
520 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
521 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
522 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
523 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
524 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
525 functions prevents this.
526 [Steve Henson]
527
528 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
529 [Ben Laurie]
530
531 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
532 correct _ecb suffix.
533 [Ben Laurie]
534
535 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
536 revocation information is handled using the text based index
537 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
538 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
539 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
540 [Steve Henson]
541
542 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
543 [Richard Levitte]
544
545 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
546 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
547 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
548 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
549
550 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
551 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
552
553 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
554 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
555 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
556 via Richard Levitte]
557
558 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
559 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
560 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
561 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
562 [Geoff Thorpe]
563
564 *) Speed up EVP routines.
565 Before:
566 encrypt
567 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
568 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
569 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
570 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
571 decrypt
572 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
573 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
574 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
575 After:
576 encrypt
577 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
578 decrypt
579 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
580 [Ben Laurie]
581
582 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
583 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
584
585 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
586 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
587 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
588 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
589 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
590 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
591 [Steve Henson]
592
593 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
594 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
595 [Richard Levitte]
596
597 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
598 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
599 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
600 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
601
602 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
603 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
604 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
605 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
606 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
607 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
608 callback.
609 [Richard Levitte]
610
611 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
612 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
613 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
614 and interrupts/cancellations.
615 [Richard Levitte]
616
617 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
618 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
619 [Steve Henson]
620
621 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
622 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
623 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
624
625 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
626 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
627 kind of callback.
628 [Richard Levitte]
629
630 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
631 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
632 than this minimum value is recommended.
633 [Lutz Jaenicke]
634
635 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
636 that are easily reachable.
637 [Richard Levitte]
638
639 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
640 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
641
642 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
643
644 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
645 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
646 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
647 needed for static libraries under Win32.
648 [Steve Henson]
649
650 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
651 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
652 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
653 [Steve Henson]
654
655 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
656 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
657 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
658 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
659 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
660 internally such as S/MIME.
661
662 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
663 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
664 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
665
666 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
667 applications.
668 [Steve Henson]
669
670 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
671 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
672 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
673 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
674
675 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
676
677 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
678
679 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
680 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
681 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
682 handling.
683 [Steve Henson]
684
685 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
686 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
687 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
688 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
689 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
690 a window system and the like.
691 [Richard Levitte]
692
693 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
694 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
695 [Geoff]
696
697 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
698 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
699 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
700 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
701 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
702 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
703 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
704 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
705 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
706 ENGINE structure.
707 [Geoff]
708
709 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
710 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
711 tag cache.
712 [Steve Henson]
713
714 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
715 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
716 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
717 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
718 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
719 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
720 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
721 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
722 [Geoff]
723
724 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
725 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
726 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
727 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
728 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
729 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
730 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
731 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
732 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
733 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
734 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
735 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
736 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
737 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
738 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
739 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
740 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
741 [Geoff]
742
743 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
744 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
745 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
746 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
747 internal engine_int.h header.
748 [Geoff]
749
750 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
751 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
752 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
753 modify their own ones).
754 [Geoff]
755
756 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
757 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
758 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
759 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
760 later on via ctrl() commands.
761 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
762 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
763 structural references.
764 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
765 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
766 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
767 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
768 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
769 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
770 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
771 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
772 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
773 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
774 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
775 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
776 [Geoff]
777
778 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
779 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
780 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
781 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
782 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
783 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
784 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
785 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
786 [Bodo Moeller]
787
788 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
789 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
790 [Steve Henson]
791
792 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
793 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
794 [Steve Henson]
795
796 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
797 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
798 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
799 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
800 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
801 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
802 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
803 [Steve Henson]
804
805 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
806 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
807 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
808 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
809 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
810
811 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
812 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
813 generator).
814 [Bodo Moeller]
815
816 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
817
818 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
819 operations and provides various method functions that can also
820 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
821
822 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
823 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
824
825 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
826 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
827 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
828
829 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
830 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
831
832 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
833 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
834
835 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
836
837 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
838 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
839 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
840 [Bodo Moeller]
841
842 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
843 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
844 [Richard Levitte]
845
846 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
847 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
848 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
849 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
850 is 40 of more characters long.
851 [Steve Henson]
852
853 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
854 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
855 pointers.
856 [Steve Henson]
857
858 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
859 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
860 [Bodo Moeller]
861
862 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
863 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
864 might.
865 [Steve Henson]
866
867 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
868
869 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
870 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
871
872 ASN1 error codes
873 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
874 ...
875 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
876 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
877 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
878 ...
879 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
880 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
881
882 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
883 [Bodo Moeller]
884
885 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
886 suffices.
887 [Bodo Moeller]
888
889 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
890 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
891 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
892 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
893 and
894 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
895
896 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
897 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
898
899 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
900 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
901 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
902 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
903 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
904 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
905
906 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
907 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
908
909 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
910 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
911
912 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
913 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
914
915 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
916 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
917 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
918 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
919
920 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
921 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
922
923 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
924 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
925
926 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
927 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
928 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
929 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
930 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
931 [Richard Levitte]
932
933 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
934 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
935 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
936 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
937 [Steve Henson]
938
939 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
940 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
941 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
942 trust settings.
943 [Steve Henson]
944
945 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
946 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
947 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
948 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
949 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
950 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
951 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
952 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
953 ocsp utility.
954 [Steve Henson]
955
956 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
957 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
958 [Steve Henson]
959
960 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
961 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
962 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
963 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
964 [Steve Henson]
965
966 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
967 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
968 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
969 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
970 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
971 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
972 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
973 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
974 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
975 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
976 [Steve Henson]
977
978 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
979 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
980 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
981 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
982 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
983 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
984 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
985 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
986
987 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
988 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
989 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
990 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
991 [Richard Levitte]
992
993 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
994 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
995 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
996 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
997 opensslconf.h.
998 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
999 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1000 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1001 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1002 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1003 what is available.
1004 [Richard Levitte]
1005
1006 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
1007 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1008 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1009 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1010 auto incremented.
1011 [Steve Henson]
1012
1013 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
1014 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
1015 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
1019 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1020 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1021 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1022 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
1025 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
1026 [Steve Henson]
1027
1028 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
1029 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
1030 option to ocsp utility.
1031 [Steve Henson]
1032
1033 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
1034 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1035 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1036 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1037 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1038 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1039 the request is nonce-less.
1040 [Steve Henson]
1041
1042 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
1043 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
1044 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
1045 [Bodo Moeller]
1046
1047 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
1048 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
1049 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
1050 [Steve Henson]
1051
1052 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
1053 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
1054 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
1055 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
1056 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
1057 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1058
1059 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
1060 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
1061 appear to exist.
1062 [Steve Henson]
1063
1064 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
1065 additional certificates supplied.
1066 [Steve Henson]
1067
1068 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
1069 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
1070 signature against.
1071 [Richard Levitte]
1072
1073 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
1074 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
1075 AES OIDs.
1076
1077 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in the "AES Ciphersuites
1078 for TLS" draft-ietf-tls-ciphersuite-06.txt. As these are not yet
1079 official, they are not enabled by default and are not even part
1080 of the "ALL" ciphersuite alias; for now, they must be explicitly
1081 requested by specifying the new "AESdraft" ciphersuite alias. If
1082 you want the default ciphersuite list plus the new ciphersuites,
1083 use "DEFAULT:AESdraft:@STRENGTH".
1084 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1085
1086 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
1087 request to response.
1088 [Steve Henson]
1089
1090 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
1091 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
1092 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
1093 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
1094 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
1095 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
1096 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
1097 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
1098 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
1099 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
1100 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
1101 [Steve Henson]
1102
1103 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
1104 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
1105 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
1106 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
1107 [Steve Henson]
1108
1109 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
1110 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1111
1112 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
1113 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
1114 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
1115 [Steve Henson]
1116
1117 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
1118 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
1119 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
1120 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1121 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1122
1123 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
1124 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
1125 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
1126 [Steve Henson]
1127
1128 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
1129 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
1130 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
1131 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
1132 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
1133 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
1134 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1135 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1136
1137 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
1138 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
1139 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
1140 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
1141 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
1142 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
1143 [Steve Henson]
1144
1145 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
1146 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
1147 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
1148 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
1149 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
1150 printout format cleaned up.
1151 [Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
1154 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
1155 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
1156 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1157 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1158 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1159 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1160 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
1161 [Steve Henson]
1162
1163 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
1164 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
1165 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
1166 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1167 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1168 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
1169 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
1170 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
1171 [Steve Henson]
1172
1173 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
1174 extensions from a separate configuration file.
1175 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
1176 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
1177 section to use.
1178 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1179
1180 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
1181 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
1182 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
1183 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
1184 [Steve Henson]
1185
1186 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
1187 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
1188 the given serial number (according to the index file).
1189 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
1190 in the index file.
1191 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1192
1193 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
1194 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
1195 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
1196 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1197
1198 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
1199 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
1200
1201 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
1202 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
1203 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
1204 [Steve Henson]
1205
1206 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
1207 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
1208 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
1209 [Bodo Moeller]
1210
1211 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
1212 file name and line number information in additional arguments
1213 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
1214 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
1215 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
1216 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
1217 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
1218 functions are provided:
1219
1220 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
1221 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
1222 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
1223 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
1224
1225 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
1226 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
1227 extended allocation function is enabled.
1228 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
1229 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
1230 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
1231
1232 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
1233 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
1234 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
1235 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
1236 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
1237 [Geoff Thorpe]
1238
1239 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
1240 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
1241 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
1242 be queried.
1243 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
1244 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
1245 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
1246 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1247
1248 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
1249 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
1250 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
1251 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
1252 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
1253 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
1254 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
1255 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
1256 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
1257 [Richard Levitte]
1258
1259 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
1260 provide utility functions which an application needing
1261 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1262 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1263 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1264
1265 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1266 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1267 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1268 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1269 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1270 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1271 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1272 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1273 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1274
1275 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
1276 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
1277 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
1278 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
1279 [Steve Henson]
1280
1281 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
1282 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
1283 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
1284 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
1285 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
1286 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
1287 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
1288 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
1289 will be added elsewhere.
1290 [Steve Henson]
1291
1292 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
1293 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
1294 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
1295 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
1296 [Steve Henson]
1297
1298 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
1299 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
1300 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
1301 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
1302 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
1303 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
1304 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
1305 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
1306 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
1307 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
1308 to produce the required SET OF.
1309 [Steve Henson]
1310
1311 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
1312 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
1313 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
1314 [Richard Levitte]
1315
1316 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
1317 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
1318 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
1319 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
1320 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
1321 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
1322 [Steve Henson]
1323
1324 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
1325 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
1326 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
1327 [Steve Henson]
1328
1329 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
1330 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
1331 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
1332 [Richard Levitte]
1333
1334 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
1335 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
1336 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
1337 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
1338 code will still work when these eventually go away.
1339 [Steve Henson]
1340
1341 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
1342 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
1343 [Steve Henson]
1344
1345 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
1346 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
1347 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
1348 certifcates and CRLs.
1349 [Steve Henson]
1350
1351 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
1352 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
1353 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
1354 [Steve Henson]
1355
1356 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
1357 entries for variables.
1358 [Steve Henson]
1359
1360 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
1361 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
1362 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
1363 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
1364 [Bodo Moeller]
1365
1366 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
1367 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
1368 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
1369 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
1370 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
1371 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
1372 [Bodo Moeller]
1373
1374 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
1375 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
1376
1377 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
1378 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
1379 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
1380 [Steve Henson]
1381
1382 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
1383 print routines.
1384 [Steve Henson]
1385
1386 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
1387 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
1388 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
1389 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
1390 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
1391 order did not reflect the encoded order.
1392 [Steve Henson]
1393
1394 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
1395 [Steve Henson]
1396
1397 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
1398 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
1399 for now but they will eventually go away.
1400 [Steve Henson]
1401
1402 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
1403 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
1404 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
1405 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
1406 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
1407 has also been converted to the new form.
1408 [Steve Henson]
1409
1410 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
1411 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
1412 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
1413 for negative moduli.
1414 [Bodo Moeller]
1415
1416 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
1417 of not touching the result's sign bit.
1418 [Bodo Moeller]
1419
1420 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
1421 set.
1422 [Bodo Moeller]
1423
1424 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
1425 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
1426 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
1427 type-specific callbacks.
1428 [Geoff Thorpe]
1429
1430 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
1431 RFC 2712.
1432 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1433 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
1434
1435 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
1436 in sections depending on the subject.
1437 [Richard Levitte]
1438
1439 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
1440 Windows.
1441 [Richard Levitte]
1442
1443 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
1444 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
1445 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
1446 be handled deterministically).
1447 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1448
1449 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
1450 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
1451 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
1452 [Bodo Moeller]
1453
1454 *) New function BN_kronecker.
1455 [Bodo Moeller]
1456
1457 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
1458 positive unless both parameters are zero.
1459 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1460 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1461 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1462 [Bodo Moeller]
1463
1464 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
1465 sign of the number in question.
1466
1467 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1468
1469 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1470 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1471 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1472 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1473 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1474 [Bodo Moeller]
1475
1476 *) New function BN_swap.
1477 [Bodo Moeller]
1478
1479 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
1480 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1481 results on negative inputs.
1482 [Bodo Moeller]
1483
1484 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
1485 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1486 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1487 [Bodo Moeller]
1488
1489 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
1490 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
1491 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1492 and add new functions:
1493
1494 BN_nnmod
1495 BN_mod_sqr
1496 BN_mod_add
1497 BN_mod_add_quick
1498 BN_mod_sub
1499 BN_mod_sub_quick
1500 BN_mod_lshift1
1501 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1502 BN_mod_lshift
1503 BN_mod_lshift_quick
1504
1505 These functions always generate non-negative results.
1506
1507 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1508 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
1509
1510 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1511 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1512 be reduced modulo m.
1513 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1514
1515 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1516 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1517 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1518 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1519 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1520 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1521 differing sizes.
1522 [Richard Levitte]
1523
1524 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
1525 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1526 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1527 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1528 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1529
1530 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1531 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1532 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1533 cause any problems.
1534 [Bodo Moeller]
1535
1536 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
1537 [Richard Levitte]
1538
1539 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
1540 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1541 [Richard Levitte]
1542
1543 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
1544 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1545 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1546 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1547 time)
1548 [Richard Levitte]
1549
1550 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
1551 [Richard Levitte]
1552
1553 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
1554 [Richard Levitte]
1555
1556 *) Add the following functions:
1557
1558 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1559 ENGINE_load_chil()
1560 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1561 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1562 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1563
1564 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1565 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1566 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1567 libraries unless it's really needed.
1568
1569 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1570 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1571 declarations (they differed!).
1572 [Richard Levitte]
1573
1574 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
1575 [Richard Levitte]
1576
1577 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
1578 [Richard Levitte]
1579
1580 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
1581 [Bodo Moeller]
1582
1583 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
1584 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1585 [Richard Levitte]
1586
1587 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
1588 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
1589 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1590
1591 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
1592 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1593 [Richard Levitte]
1594
1595 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
1596 [Richard Levitte]
1597
1598 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
1599 [Richard Levitte]
1600
1601 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
1602 [Ben Laurie]
1603
1604 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
1605 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
1606 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
1607
1608 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
1609 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
1610 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
1611 different shared library filenames on each system.
1612 [Geoff Thorpe]
1613
1614 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
1615 [Richard Levitte]
1616
1617 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
1618 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
1619 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
1620 of two sections.
1621 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
1622
1623 *) NCONF changes.
1624 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1625 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1626 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1627 binary backward compatibility.
1628 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1629 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1630 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
1631 LDAP server.
1632 [Richard Levitte]
1633
1634 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
1635 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
1636 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
1637 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
1638 this case.
1639 [Steve Henson]
1640
1641 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
1642 [Ben Laurie]
1643
1644 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
1645 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
1646 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
1647 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
1648 set.
1649 [Steve Henson]
1650
1651 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
1652 [Richard Levitte]
1653
1654 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [XX xxx 2002]
1655
1656 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
1657 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
1658 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
1659
1660 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
1661 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1662
1663 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
1664 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
1665 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
1666 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
1667 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
1668 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
1669 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1670
1671 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
1672 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
1673 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
1674 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
1675 [Bodo Moeller]
1676
1677 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
1678 [Bodo Moeller]
1679
1680 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
1681 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
1682 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
1683 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
1684 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
1685 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
1686
1687 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
1688 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
1689 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
1690 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
1691 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
1692 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1693
1694 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
1695 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
1696 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
1697 BN_generate_prime().)
1698
1699 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
1700 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
1701 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
1702 better.
1703 [Bodo Moeller]
1704
1705 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
1706 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
1707 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1708
1709 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
1710 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
1711 when using non-blocking I/O.
1712 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
1713
1714 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
1715 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
1716
1717 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
1718 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
1719 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1720
1721 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
1722 configuration for the versions before that.
1723 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
1724
1725 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
1726 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
1727 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
1728 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
1729 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1730
1731 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
1732 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
1733 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
1734 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1735
1736 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
1737 value is 0.
1738 [Richard Levitte]
1739
1740 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
1741 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
1742
1743 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
1744 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
1745 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
1746
1747 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
1748 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
1749 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
1750 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
1751 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
1752 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
1753 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
1754 session cache.
1755
1756 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
1757 using a local variable.
1758 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
1759
1760 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
1761 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
1762 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
1763
1764 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
1765 [Richard Levitte]
1766
1767 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
1768 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
1769
1770 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
1771 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
1772 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
1773
1774 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
1775
1776 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
1777 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
1778 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
1779 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
1780 [Bodo Moeller]
1781
1782 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
1783 present.
1784 [Steve Henson]
1785
1786 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
1787 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
1788 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
1789 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
1790 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
1791
1792 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
1793 returns early because it has nothing to do.
1794 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1795
1796 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1797 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
1798 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1799
1800 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1801 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
1802 (Use engine 'keyclient')
1803 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
1804
1805 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
1806 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
1807 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
1808 modules).
1809 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
1810
1811 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1812 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
1813 from 0.9.7.
1814 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
1815
1816 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1817 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
1818 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
1819 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
1820
1821 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
1822 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
1823 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
1824 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
1825
1826 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
1827 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
1828
1829 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
1830 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
1831 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
1832 [Bodo Moeller]
1833
1834 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
1835 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
1836 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
1837 become invalid.
1838 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
1839
1840 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
1841 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
1842 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
1843 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
1844 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
1845 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
1846 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
1847 [Bodo Moeller]
1848
1849 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
1850 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
1851 one of the SSL handshake functions.
1852 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
1853
1854 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
1855 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
1856 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
1857 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
1858 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
1859 the client will at least see that alert.
1860 [Bodo Moeller]
1861
1862 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
1863 correctly.
1864 [Bodo Moeller]
1865
1866 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
1867 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
1868 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
1869
1870 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
1871 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
1872 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
1873 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
1874 HelloRequest.
1875
1876 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
1877 before just sending a HelloRequest.
1878 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
1879
1880 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
1881 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
1882 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
1883 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
1884 may leak via logfiles.)
1885
1886 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
1887 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
1888 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
1889 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
1890 the legal range.
1891 [Bodo Moeller]
1892
1893 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
1894 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
1895 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1896
1897 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
1898 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
1899 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
1900 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
1901 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
1902 [Bodo Moeller]
1903
1904 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
1905 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
1906
1907 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
1908 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
1909 followed by modular reduction.
1910 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
1911
1912 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
1913 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
1914 [Bodo Moeller]
1915
1916 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
1917 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
1918 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
1919 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
1920 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1921
1922 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
1923 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1924
1925 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
1926 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
1927 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1928
1929 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
1930 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
1931 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
1932 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
1933 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
1934 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
1935 automatically.
1936 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
1937
1938 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
1939 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
1940 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
1941 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
1942 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
1943
1944 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
1945 [Andy Polyakov]
1946
1947 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
1948 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
1949 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
1950 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
1951 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
1952 to allow the necessary settings.
1953 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1954
1955 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
1956 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
1957 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
1958 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
1959 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1960
1961 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
1962 dh->length and always used
1963
1964 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
1965
1966 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
1967 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
1968 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
1969 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
1970 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
1971 dh->length.
1972
1973 So switch back to
1974
1975 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
1976
1977 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
1978 otherwise.
1979 [Bodo Moeller]
1980
1981 *) In
1982
1983 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
1984 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
1985 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
1986 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
1987
1988 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
1989 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
1990 always reject numbers >= n.
1991 [Bodo Moeller]
1992
1993 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
1994 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
1995 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
1996 variable) is not atomic.
1997 [Bodo Moeller]
1998
1999 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
2000 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
2001 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
2002 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
2003
2004 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
2005 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
2006
2007 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
2008 little-endian MIPS.
2009 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
2010
2011 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
2012 [Richard Levitte]
2013
2014 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
2015
2016 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
2017 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
2018 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
2019 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
2020 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
2021 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
2022 to traverse all of 'state'.
2023
2024 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
2025 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
2026 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
2027
2028 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
2029 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
2030
2031 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
2032 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
2033 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
2034 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
2035 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
2036 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
2037 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
2038 further strengthens the PRNG.
2039 [Bodo Moeller]
2040
2041 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
2042 [Andy Polyakov]
2043
2044 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
2045 an error message in this case.
2046 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2047
2048 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
2052 positive and less than q.
2053 [Bodo Moeller]
2054
2055 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
2056 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
2057 that itself.
2058 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
2059
2060 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
2061 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
2062 [Bodo Moeller]
2063
2064 *) Fix OAEP check.
2065 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2066
2067 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
2068 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2069 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
2070 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
2071 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
2072 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
2073 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
2074 paper.)
2075
2076 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
2077 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
2078 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
2079 detect the supposedly ignored error.
2080
2081 Both problems are now fixed.
2082 [Bodo Moeller]
2083
2084 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
2085 (previously it was 1024).
2086 [Bodo Moeller]
2087
2088 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
2089 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
2090 [Steve Henson]
2091
2092 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
2093 [Steve Henson]
2094
2095 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
2096 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
2097 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
2098 [Steve Henson]
2099
2100 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
2101 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
2102 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
2103 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
2104 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
2105 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
2106 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
2107 environment variables.
2108
2109 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
2110 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
2111 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
2112 [Bodo Moeller]
2113
2114 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
2115 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
2116 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
2117 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
2118 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
2119 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
2120 [Bodo Moeller]
2121
2122 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
2123 versions of 'test'.
2124 [Bodo Moeller]
2125
2126 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
2127
2128 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
2129 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
2130
2131 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
2132 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
2133 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
2134 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
2135 CygWin.
2136 [Richard Levitte]
2137
2138 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
2139 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
2140 amount of data available.
2141 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
2142 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2143
2144 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
2145 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
2146 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
2147 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
2148 [Bodo Moeller]
2149
2150 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
2151 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
2152 and UnixWare.
2153 [Richard Levitte]
2154
2155 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
2156 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
2157 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
2158 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
2159 [Ulf Moeller]
2160
2161 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
2162 [Andy Polyakov]
2163
2164 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
2165 [Richard Levitte]
2166
2167 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
2168 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
2169 [Steve Henson]
2170 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2171
2172 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
2173 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
2174 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
2175 (but broken) behaviour.
2176 [Steve Henson]
2177
2178 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
2179 it when found.
2180 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
2181
2182 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
2183 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
2184 [Bodo Moeller]
2185
2186 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
2187 did not exist.
2188 [Bodo Moeller]
2189
2190 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
2191 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
2192
2193 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
2194 [Richard Levitte]
2195
2196 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
2197 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
2198 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
2199
2200 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
2201 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
2202 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
2203 [Steve Henson]
2204
2205 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
2206 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
2207 [Ulf Moeller]
2208
2209 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
2210 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
2211
2212 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
2213
2214 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
2215
2216 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
2217 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
2218 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
2219 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
2220 [Bodo Moeller]
2221
2222 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
2223 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2224
2225 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
2226 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
2227 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2228
2229 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
2230 was empty.
2231 [Steve Henson]
2232 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2233
2234 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
2235 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
2236 but the code is actually correct.
2237 [Steve Henson]
2238
2239 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
2240 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
2241 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
2242 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
2243 and leaves the highest bit random.
2244 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2245
2246 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
2247 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
2248 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
2249 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
2250 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
2251 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
2252 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
2253 [Bodo Moeller]
2254
2255 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
2256 [Ulf Moeller]
2257
2258 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
2259 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
2260 [Steve Henson]
2261
2262 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
2263 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
2264 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
2265 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
2266 headers.
2267 [Richard Levitte]
2268
2269 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
2270 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
2271 and break the signature.
2272 [Steve Henson]
2273 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2274
2275 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
2276 DH ciphersuites.
2277 [Steve Henson]
2278
2279 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
2280 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
2281 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
2282 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
2283 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
2284 [Bodo Moeller]
2285
2286 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
2287 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2288
2289 *) ./config script fixes.
2290 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
2291
2292 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
2293 [Bodo Moeller]
2294
2295 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
2296 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
2297 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
2298 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
2299 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
2300
2301 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
2302 call failed, free the DSA structure.
2303 [Bodo Moeller]
2304
2305 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
2306 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
2307 [Steve Henson]
2308
2309 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
2310 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
2311 when writing a 32767 byte record.
2312 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
2313
2314 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
2315 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
2316
2317 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
2318 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
2319 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
2320 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
2321 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
2322
2323 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
2324 [Bodo Moeller]
2325
2326 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
2327 [Ulf Möller]
2328
2329 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
2330 [Ulf Möller]
2331
2332 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
2333 [Bodo Moeller]
2334
2335 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
2336 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
2337 [Bodo Moeller]
2338
2339 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
2340 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
2341 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
2342 result of the server certificate verification.)
2343 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2344
2345 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
2346 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
2347 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
2348 [Bodo Moeller]
2349
2350 *) Fix SSL_peek:
2351 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
2352 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
2353 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
2354 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
2355 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
2356 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
2357 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
2358 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
2359 [Bodo Moeller]
2360
2361 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
2362 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
2363 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
2364 happening the other way round.
2365 [Geoff Thorpe]
2366
2367 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
2368 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
2369 [Bodo Moeller]
2370
2371 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
2372 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
2373 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
2374 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
2375 [Richard Levitte]
2376
2377 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
2378 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
2379
2380 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
2381
2382 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
2383 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
2384 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
2385 that.
2386
2387 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
2388
2389 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
2390
2391 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
2392 static ones.
2393 [Richard Levitte]
2394
2395 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
2396
2397 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
2398 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
2399 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
2400 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
2401 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
2402
2403 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
2404 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
2405 matter what.
2406 [Richard Levitte]
2407
2408 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
2409 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2410
2411 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
2412
2413 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
2414 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
2415 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
2416 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
2417 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
2418 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
2419 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
2420 by the Finished messages.
2421 [Bodo Moeller]
2422
2423 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
2424 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
2425
2426 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
2427 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
2428 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
2429 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
2430 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
2431 appropriately.
2432 [Steve Henson]
2433
2434 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
2435 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
2436 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
2437 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
2438 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
2439 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
2440 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
2441 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
2442 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
2443 together.
2444 [Steve Henson]
2445
2446 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
2447 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
2448 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
2449 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
2450
2451 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
2452 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
2453 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
2454 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
2455 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
2456 the answer.
2457
2458 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
2459 been tested well enough.
2460 [Richard Levitte]
2461
2462 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
2463 it can return incorrect results.
2464 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
2465 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
2466 [Bodo Moeller]
2467
2468 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
2469 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
2470 include zero length content when signing messages.
2471 [Steve Henson]
2472
2473 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
2474 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
2475 [Bodo Möller]
2476
2477 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
2478 [Richard Levitte]
2479
2480 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
2481 wrong sign.
2482 [Ulf Möller]
2483
2484 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
2485 packages. The default package contains applications, application
2486 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
2487 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
2488 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
2489 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
2490 [Richard Levitte]
2491
2492 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
2493 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2494
2495 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
2496 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
2497
2498 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
2499 random number < q in the DSA library.
2500 [Ulf Möller]
2501
2502 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
2503 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
2504 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
2505 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
2506 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
2507 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
2508 just makes things more complicated.)
2509 [Bodo Moeller]
2510
2511 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
2512 from EGD.
2513 [Ben Laurie]
2514
2515 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
2516 work better on such systems.
2517 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2518
2519 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
2520 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
2521 keyid to the certificates aux info.
2522 [Steve Henson]
2523
2524 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
2525 if there was more than one signature.
2526 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
2527
2528 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
2529 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
2530 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
2531 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
2532 [Richard Levitte]
2533
2534 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
2535 rather than always using the current time.
2536 [Steve Henson]
2537
2538 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
2539 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
2540 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
2541 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
2542 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
2543 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
2544
2545 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
2546 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
2547
2548 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
2549
2550 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
2551 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
2552 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
2553 the same hash value.
2554
2555 As a result various functions (which were all internal
2556 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
2557 structure. This will break anything that messed round
2558 with X509_STORE internally.
2559
2560 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
2561 exact match, rather than just subject name.
2562
2563 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
2564 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
2565 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
2566 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
2567 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
2568 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
2569 entirely (maybe later...).
2570
2571 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
2572
2573 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
2574 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
2575 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
2576 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
2577 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
2578 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
2579 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
2580 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
2581
2582 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
2583 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2584
2585 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
2586 to customise the verify behaviour.
2587 [Steve Henson]
2588
2589 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
2590 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
2591 [Steve Henson]
2592
2593 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
2594 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
2595 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
2596 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
2597 request is improperly encoded.
2598 [Steve Henson]
2599
2600 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
2601 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
2602 BIO_write(b, ...).
2603
2604 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
2605 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
2606
2607 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
2608 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
2609 words set to zero.)
2610 [Bodo Moeller]
2611
2612 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
2613 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
2614 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
2615 [Bodo Moeller]
2616
2617 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
2618 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
2619 BIO/fp routines also added.
2620 [Steve Henson]
2621
2622 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
2623 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
2624
2625 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
2626 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
2627 demos/state_machine.
2628 [Ben Laurie]
2629
2630 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
2631 generation and verification.
2632 [Steve Henson]
2633
2634 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
2635 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
2636 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
2637 encode and decode it manually.
2638 [Steve Henson]
2639
2640 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
2641 compile under VC++.
2642 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
2643
2644 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
2645 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
2646 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
2647 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
2648
2649 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
2650 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
2651 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
2652 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
2653 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
2654 [Steve Henson]
2655
2656 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
2657 [Richard Levitte]
2658
2659 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
2660 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
2661 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
2662
2663 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
2664 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
2665 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
2666 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
2667 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
2668 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
2669 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
2670 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
2671
2672 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
2673 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
2674
2675 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
2676
2677 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
2678 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
2679 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
2680
2681 [Richard Levitte]
2682
2683 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
2684 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
2685 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
2686 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
2687 [Richard Levitte]
2688
2689 *) MD4 implemented.
2690 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
2691
2692 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
2693 [Richard Levitte]
2694
2695 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
2696 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
2697 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
2698 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
2699 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
2700 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
2701 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
2702 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
2703 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
2704 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
2705 short or long names are found.
2706 [Steve Henson]
2707
2708 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
2709 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
2710
2711 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
2712 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
2713 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
2714 version rollback attacks was not effective.
2715
2716 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
2717 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
2718 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
2719 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
2720 [Bodo Moeller]
2721
2722 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
2723 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
2724 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
2725 [Richard Levitte]
2726
2727 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
2728 these print out strings and name structures based on various
2729 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
2730 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
2731 to allow the various flags to be set.
2732 [Steve Henson]
2733
2734 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
2735 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
2736 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
2737 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
2738 dates to be checked.
2739 [Steve Henson]
2740
2741 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
2742 negative public key encodings) on by default,
2743 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
2744 [Steve Henson]
2745
2746 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
2747 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
2748 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
2749 [Steve Henson]
2750
2751 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
2752 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
2753 [Bodo Moeller]
2754
2755 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
2756 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
2757 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
2758 are always statically linked for now, but there are
2759 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
2760 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
2761 [Richard Levitte]
2762
2763 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
2764 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
2765 Random Numbers.
2766 [Ulf Möller]
2767
2768 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
2769 DSA key.
2770 [Steve Henson]
2771
2772 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
2773 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
2774 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
2775 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
2776 form signing output easier to verify.
2777 [Steve Henson]
2778
2779 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
2780 [Steve Henson]
2781
2782 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
2783 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
2784 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
2785 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
2786 are needed because all other string types have virtually
2787 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
2788 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
2789 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
2790 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
2791 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
2792 [Steve Henson]
2793
2794 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
2795
2796 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
2797 the syntax given in objects.README.
2798 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
2799 obj_mac.h.
2800 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
2801 obj_mac.h.
2802
2803 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
2804 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
2805 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
2806 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
2807 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
2808 consistent name changes.
2809 [Richard Levitte]
2810
2811 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
2812 [Bodo Moeller]
2813
2814 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
2815 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
2816 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
2817 environment variable, or the default random state file.
2818 [Richard Levitte]
2819
2820 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
2821 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
2822 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
2823 of safestack.h .
2824 [Steve Henson]
2825
2826 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
2827 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
2828 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
2829 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
2830 [Steve Henson]
2831
2832 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
2833 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
2834 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
2835 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
2836 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
2837 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
2838 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
2839 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
2840 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
2841 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
2842 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
2843 [Steve Henson]
2844
2845 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
2846 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
2847 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
2848 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
2849 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
2850 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
2851 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
2852 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
2853 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
2854 algorithm to openssl-dev.
2855 [Steve Henson]
2856
2857 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
2858 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
2859 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
2860 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
2861
2862 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
2863 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
2864 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
2865 omit any duplicate addresses.
2866 [Steve Henson]
2867
2868 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
2869 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
2870 [Bodo Moeller]
2871
2872 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
2873 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
2874 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
2875 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
2876 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
2877 [Bodo Moeller]
2878
2879 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
2880 software:
2881 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
2882 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
2883 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
2884 Free => OPENSSL_free
2885 [Richard Levitte]
2886
2887 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
2888 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
2889 [Bodo Moeller]
2890
2891 *) CygWin32 support.
2892 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
2893
2894 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
2895 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
2896 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
2897 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
2898 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
2899 approach.
2900 [Geoff Thorpe]
2901
2902 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
2903 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
2904 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
2905 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
2906 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
2907 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
2908 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
2909 [Geoff Thorpe]
2910
2911 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
2912 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
2913 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
2914 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
2915 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
2916 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
2917 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
2918 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
2919 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
2920 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
2921 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
2922 [Bodo Moeller]
2923
2924 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
2925 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
2926 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
2927 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
2928 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
2929
2930 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
2931 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
2932 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
2933 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
2934 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
2935
2936 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
2937 ciphers.
2938
2939 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
2940 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
2941 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
2942 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
2943
2944 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
2945
2946 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
2947 of macros.
2948
2949 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
2950 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
2951 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
2952 flags.
2953
2954 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
2955 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
2956 any installed hardware versions can.
2957 [Steve Henson]
2958
2959 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
2960 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
2961 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
2962 number.
2963 [Bodo Moeller]
2964
2965 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
2966 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
2967 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
2968 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
2969 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
2970
2971 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
2972 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
2973 [Steve Henson]
2974
2975 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
2976 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
2977 [Richard Levitte]
2978
2979 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
2980 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
2981 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
2982 features.
2983 [Steve Henson]
2984
2985 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
2986 [Ulf Möller]
2987
2988 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
2989 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
2990 but no ssl client purpose.
2991 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
2992
2993 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
2994 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
2995 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
2996 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
2997 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
2998 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
2999 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
3000 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
3001 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
3002 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
3003 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
3004 [Steve Henson]
3005
3006 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
3007 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
3008 be obtained from the error queue.
3009 [Bodo Moeller]
3010
3011 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
3012 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
3013 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
3014 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
3015 [Bodo Moeller]
3016
3017 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
3018 [Ulf Möller]
3019
3020 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
3021 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
3022 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
3023 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
3024 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
3025 [Geoff Thorpe]
3026
3027 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
3028 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
3029 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
3030 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
3031 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
3032 [Geoff Thorpe]
3033
3034 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
3035 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
3036 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
3037 may not be NULL.
3038 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
3039
3040 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
3041 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
3042 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
3043 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
3044 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
3045 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
3046 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
3047 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
3048 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
3049 or "the configuration storage API"...
3050
3051 The new configuration file reading functions are:
3052
3053 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
3054 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
3055
3056 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
3057
3058 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
3059
3060 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
3061 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
3062 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
3063 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
3064 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
3065 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
3066 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
3067
3068 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
3069 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
3070 [Richard Levitte]
3071
3072 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
3073 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
3074 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
3075 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
3076 [Bodo Moeller]
3077
3078 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
3079 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
3080 them in a portable way.
3081 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
3082
3083 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
3084
3085 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
3086
3087 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
3088 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
3089
3090 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
3091 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
3092 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
3093 <attili@amaxo.com>]
3094
3095 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
3096 was larger than the MD block size.
3097 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
3098
3099 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
3100 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
3101 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
3102 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
3103 components.
3104 [Steve Henson]
3105
3106 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
3107 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
3108 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
3109
3110 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
3111 discouraged.
3112 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
3113
3114 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
3115 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
3116 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
3117 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
3118 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
3119 Additional arguments are always ignored.
3120
3121 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
3122 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
3123
3124 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
3125 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
3126 [Bodo Moeller]
3127
3128 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
3129 [Bodo Moeller]
3130
3131 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
3132 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
3133 its own key.
3134 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
3135 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
3136 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
3137 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
3138 [Bodo Moeller]
3139
3140 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
3141 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
3142 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
3143 does not suppress any output.
3144 [Richard Levitte]
3145
3146 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
3147 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
3148 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
3149 with all the associated security issues.
3150
3151 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
3152 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
3153 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
3154 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
3155 use the value in the default purpose.
3156 [Steve Henson]
3157
3158 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
3159 and fix a memory leak.
3160 [Steve Henson]
3161
3162 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
3163 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
3164 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
3165 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
3166 [Bodo Moeller]
3167
3168 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
3169 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
3170 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
3171 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
3172 [Bodo Moeller]
3173
3174 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
3175 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
3176 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
3177 [Bodo Moeller]
3178
3179 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
3180 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
3181 [Bodo Moeller]
3182
3183 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
3184 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
3185 which was free.
3186 [Steve Henson]
3187
3188 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
3189 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
3190 [Bodo Moeller]
3191
3192 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
3193 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
3194 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
3195 [Bodo Moeller]
3196
3197 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
3198 number generation fails.
3199 [Bodo Moeller]
3200
3201 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
3202 [Bodo Moeller]
3203
3204 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
3205 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
3206
3207 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
3208 [Ulf Möller]
3209
3210 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
3211 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
3212
3213 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
3214 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
3215
3216 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
3217
3218 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
3219 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
3220 [Steve Henson]
3221
3222 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
3223 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
3224
3225 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
3226 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
3227 [Ulf Möller]
3228
3229 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
3230 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
3231 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
3232 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
3233 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
3234 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
3235
3236 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
3237 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
3238 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
3239 for example.
3240 [Steve Henson]
3241
3242 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
3243 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
3244 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
3245 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
3246 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
3247 counter, some don't.)
3248 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
3249 counters or duplicate objects.
3250 [Steve Henson]
3251
3252 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
3253 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
3254 [Steve Henson]
3255
3256 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
3257 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
3258 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
3259
3260 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
3261 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
3262 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
3263 or -rand.
3264 [Ulf Möller]
3265
3266 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
3267 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
3268 [Steve Henson]
3269
3270 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
3271 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
3272 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
3273 cipher list.
3274 [Steve Henson]
3275
3276 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
3277 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
3278 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
3279 [Steve Henson]
3280
3281 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
3282 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
3283 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
3284 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
3285 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
3286 should work without changes.
3287 [Richard Levitte]
3288
3289 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
3290 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
3291 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
3292 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
3293 must be defined. E.g.,
3294 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
3295 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
3296 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
3297 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
3298
3299 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
3300 record layer.
3301 [Bodo Moeller]
3302
3303 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
3304 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
3305 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
3306 [Steve Henson]
3307
3308 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
3309 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
3310 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
3311 request header lines. Some software needs this.
3312 [Steve Henson]
3313
3314 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
3315 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
3316 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
3317 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
3318 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
3319 is prompted for as usual.
3320 [Steve Henson]
3321
3322 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
3323 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
3324 autodetect the card and use it if present.
3325 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
3326
3327 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
3328 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
3329 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
3330 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
3331 [Steve Henson]
3332
3333 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
3334 [Andy Polyakov]
3335
3336 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
3337 of seed file.
3338 [Steve Henson]
3339
3340 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
3341 [Bodo Moeller]
3342
3343 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
3344 [Steve Henson]
3345
3346 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
3347 bits.
3348 [Ulf Möller]
3349
3350 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
3351 [Ulf Möller]
3352
3353 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
3354 [Andy Polyakov]
3355
3356 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
3357 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
3358 [Ulf Möller]
3359
3360 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
3361 options to produce them.
3362 [Steve Henson]
3363
3364 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
3365 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
3366 [Ulf Möller]
3367
3368 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
3369 for p == 0.
3370 [Ulf Möller]
3371
3372 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
3373 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
3374 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
3375 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
3376 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
3377 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
3378 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
3379 [Steve Henson]
3380
3381 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
3382 [Steve Henson]
3383
3384 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
3385 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
3386 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
3387 [Bodo Moeller]
3388
3389 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
3390 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
3391
3392 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
3393 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
3394 [Ulf Möller]
3395
3396 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
3397 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
3398 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
3399 has already seen).
3400 [Bodo Moeller]
3401
3402 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
3403 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
3404
3405 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
3406 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
3407 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
3408 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
3409 generation becomes much faster.
3410
3411 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
3412 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
3413 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
3414 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
3415 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
3416 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
3417 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
3418 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
3419 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
3420 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
3421 [Bodo Moeller]
3422
3423 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
3424 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
3425 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
3426 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
3427 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
3428 trial division stage.
3429 [Bodo Moeller]
3430
3431 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
3432 as ASN1_TIME.
3433 [Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
3436 [Steve Henson]
3437
3438 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
3439 [Ulf Möller]
3440
3441 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
3442 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
3443 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
3444 the comments.
3445 [Ulf Möller]
3446
3447 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
3448 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
3449 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
3450 [Bodo Moeller]
3451
3452 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
3453 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
3454 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
3455 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
3456
3457 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
3458 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
3459 [Steve Henson]
3460
3461 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
3462 [Ulf Möller]
3463
3464 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
3465 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
3466 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
3467 Rabin-Miller iterations.
3468 [Ulf Möller]
3469
3470 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
3471 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
3472 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
3473 [Ulf Möller]
3474
3475 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
3476 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
3477 (instead of parameters) in future.
3478 [Steve Henson]
3479
3480 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
3481 when a new cipher list is set.
3482 [Steve Henson]
3483
3484 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
3485 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
3486 wrong.
3487
3488 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
3489 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
3490 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
3491
3492 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
3493 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
3494 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
3495 an error is flagged.
3496
3497 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
3498 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
3499 the readability was also increased :-)
3500 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
3501
3502 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
3503 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
3504 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
3505 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
3506 as the root CA.
3507 [Steve Henson]
3508
3509 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
3510 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
3511 [Steve Henson]
3512
3513 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
3514 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
3515 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
3516 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
3517 instead.
3518
3519 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
3520 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
3521 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
3522 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
3523 because they handle more complex structures.)
3524 [Steve Henson]
3525
3526 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
3527 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
3528 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
3529 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3530
3531 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
3532 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
3533 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
3534 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
3535 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
3536 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
3537 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
3538 [Ulf Möller]
3539
3540 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
3541 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
3542 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
3543 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
3544 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
3545 [Bodo Moeller]
3546
3547 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
3548 [Bodo Moeller]
3549
3550 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
3551 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
3552 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
3553 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
3554 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
3555 to use this.
3556
3557 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
3558 code.
3559 [Steve Henson]
3560
3561 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
3562 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
3563 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
3564 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
3565 [Steve Henson]
3566
3567 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
3568 [Ulf Möller]
3569
3570 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
3571 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
3572 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
3573 international characters are used.
3574
3575 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
3576 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
3577 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
3578 in ASN1 order.
3579 [Steve Henson]
3580
3581 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
3582 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
3583 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
3584 request.
3585
3586 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
3587 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
3588 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
3589 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
3590 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
3591 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
3592
3593 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
3594 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
3595 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
3596 be handled by the string table functions.
3597
3598 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
3599 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
3600 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
3601 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
3602 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
3603 types at all.
3604 [Steve Henson]
3605
3606 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
3607 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
3608 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
3609 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
3610 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
3611
3612 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
3613 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
3614 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
3615 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
3616 [Bodo Moeller]
3617
3618 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
3619 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
3620 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
3621 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
3622 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
3623 SHA1.
3624 [Andy Polyakov]
3625
3626 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
3627 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
3628 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
3629 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
3630 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
3631 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
3632 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
3633 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
3634
3635 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
3636 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
3637 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
3638 [Steve Henson]
3639
3640 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
3641 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
3642 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
3643 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
3644 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
3645 support to pkcs8 application.
3646 [Steve Henson]
3647
3648 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
3649 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
3650 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
3651 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
3652 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
3653 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
3654 [Bodo Moeller]
3655
3656 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
3657 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
3658 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
3659 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
3660 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
3661 consistency.
3662 [Bodo Moeller]
3663
3664 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
3665 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
3666 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
3667 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
3668 example.
3669 [Steve Henson]
3670
3671 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
3672 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
3673 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
3674 and any application specific purposes.
3675
3676 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
3677 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
3678 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
3679 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
3680 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
3681 if the certificate is self signed.
3682 [Steve Henson]
3683
3684 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
3685 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
3686 [Steve Henson]
3687
3688 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
3689 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
3690 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
3691 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
3692 [Steve Henson]
3693
3694 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
3695 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
3696 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
3697 Update documentation.
3698 [Steve Henson]
3699
3700 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
3701 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
3702 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
3703 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
3704 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
3705 [Steve Henson]
3706
3707 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
3708 for details.
3709 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
3710
3711 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
3712 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
3713 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
3714 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
3715 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
3716 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
3717 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
3718 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
3719 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
3720 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
3721
3722 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
3723
3724 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3725 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
3726 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
3727 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
3728 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
3729
3730 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
3731 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
3732 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
3733 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
3734 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
3735 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
3736 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
3737 request additional information:
3738 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
3739 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
3740
3741 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
3742 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
3743 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
3744 options.
3745
3746 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
3747 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
3748
3749 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
3750 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
3751 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
3752
3753 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
3754 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3755
3756 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
3757 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
3758 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
3759 algorithm.
3760 [Steve Henson]
3761
3762 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
3763 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
3764 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
3765
3766 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
3767 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
3768 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
3769 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
3770 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
3771 included in OpenSSL.
3772 [Steve Henson]
3773
3774 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
3775 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
3776 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
3777 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
3778 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
3779 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
3780 [Bodo Moeller]
3781
3782 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
3783 PKCS12 structure.
3784 [Steve Henson]
3785
3786 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
3787 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
3788 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
3789 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
3790 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
3791 structure.
3792 [Steve Henson]
3793
3794 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
3795 need initialising.
3796 [Steve Henson]
3797
3798 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
3799 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
3800 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
3801 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
3802 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
3803 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
3804 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
3805 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
3806 be maintained manually.
3807
3808 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
3809 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
3810 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
3811 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
3812 work because people forget to call this function]
3813 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
3814 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
3815 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
3816 [Steve Henson]
3817
3818 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
3819 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
3820 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
3821 should be discouraged from doing it.
3822 [Ben Laurie]
3823
3824 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
3825 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
3826 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
3827 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
3828 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
3829 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
3830 [Steve Henson]
3831
3832 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
3833 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
3834 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
3835
3836 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
3837 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
3838 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
3839
3840 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
3841 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
3842 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
3843 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
3844 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
3845 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
3846
3847 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
3848 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
3849 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
3850
3851 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
3852 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
3853 and vice versa.
3854
3855 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
3856 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
3857 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
3858 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
3859 [Steve Henson]
3860
3861 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
3862 [Steve Henson]
3863
3864 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
3865 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
3866 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
3867 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
3868 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
3869 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
3870 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
3871 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
3872 keys so we should be OK.
3873
3874 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
3875 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
3876 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
3877 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
3878 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
3879 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
3880 stay in the name of compatibility.
3881
3882 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
3883 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
3884 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
3885
3886 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
3887 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
3888 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
3889 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
3890 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
3891 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
3892 supplied key).
3893 [Steve Henson]
3894
3895 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
3896 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
3897 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
3898 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
3899 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
3900 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
3901 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
3902 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
3903 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
3904 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
3905 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
3906 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
3907 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
3908 [Steve Henson]
3909
3910 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
3911 [Steve Henson]
3912
3913 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
3914 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
3915 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
3916 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
3917 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
3918 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
3919 single self signed certificate. This means that:
3920 openssl verify ss.pem
3921 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
3922 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
3923 is OK.
3924 [Steve Henson]
3925
3926 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
3927 (and add it to external session representation).
3928 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
3929 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
3930 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
3931 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
3932 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
3933 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
3934 security holes.
3935 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
3936
3937 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
3938 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
3939 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
3940 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
3941
3942 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
3943 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
3944 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
3945 [Steve Henson]
3946
3947 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
3948 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
3949 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
3950 code.
3951 [Steve Henson]
3952
3953 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
3954 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
3955 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
3956
3957 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
3958 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
3959 certificate auxiliary information.
3960 [Steve Henson]
3961
3962 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
3963 the 'enc' command.
3964 [Steve Henson]
3965
3966 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
3967 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
3968 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
3969 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
3970 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
3971 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
3972 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
3973 [Richard Levitte]
3974
3975 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
3976 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
3977 [Steve Henson]
3978
3979 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
3980 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
3981 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
3982 manpages and fix a few bugs.
3983 [Steve Henson]
3984
3985 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
3986 [Steve Henson]
3987
3988 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
3989 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
3990 [Steve Henson]
3991
3992 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
3993 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
3994 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
3995 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
3996 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
3997 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
3998 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
3999 using the new 'x509' options.
4000
4001 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
4002 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
4003 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
4004 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
4005 for all purposes.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
4009 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
4010 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
4011 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
4012 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
4013 [Mark Cox]
4014
4015 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
4016 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
4017 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
4018 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
4019 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
4020 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
4021 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
4022 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
4023 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
4024 the key length and effective key length are equal.
4025 [Steve Henson]
4026
4027 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
4028 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
4029 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
4030 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
4031 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
4032 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
4033 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
4034 [Steve Henson]
4035
4036 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
4037 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
4038 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
4039 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
4040 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
4041 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
4042 openssl.cnf for more info.
4043 [Steve Henson]
4044
4045 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
4046 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
4047 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
4048 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
4049 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
4050 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
4051 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
4052 md should be large enough anyway.
4053 [Bodo Moeller]
4054
4055 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
4056 for handling the random seed file.
4057
4058 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
4059 ca,
4060 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
4061 s_client,
4062 s_server,
4063 x509 (when signing).
4064 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
4065 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
4066 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
4067
4068 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
4069 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
4070 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
4071 that support '-rand'.
4072 [Bodo Moeller]
4073
4074 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
4075 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
4076 [Bodo Moeller]
4077
4078 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
4079 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
4080 [Bill Perry]
4081
4082 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
4083 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
4084 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
4085 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
4086 is suitable.
4087 [Steve Henson]
4088
4089 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
4090 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
4091 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
4092 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
4093 [Steve Henson]
4094
4095 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
4096 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
4097 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
4098 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
4099 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
4100 print out all the purposes.
4101 [Steve Henson]
4102
4103 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
4104 functions.
4105 [Steve Henson]
4106
4107 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
4108 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
4109 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
4110 single function call.
4111 [Steve Henson]
4112
4113 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
4114 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
4115 [Andy Polyakov]
4116
4117 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
4118 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
4119 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
4120 [Steve Henson]
4121
4122 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
4123 when producing the local key id.
4124 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4125
4126 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
4127 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
4128 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
4129 "server.pem".
4130 [Steve Henson]
4131
4132 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
4133 a public key to be input or output. For example:
4134 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
4135 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
4136 [Steve Henson]
4137
4138 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
4139 in the message. This was handled by allowing
4140 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
4141 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
4142
4143 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
4144 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
4145 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
4146 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4147
4148 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
4149 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
4150 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
4151 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
4152 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
4153 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
4154 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
4155 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
4156 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
4157 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
4158 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
4159 trivial: move one line.
4160 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
4161
4162 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
4163 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
4164 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
4165 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
4166 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
4167 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
4168 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
4169 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
4170 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
4171 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
4172 with an event loop for example.
4173 [Steve Henson]
4174
4175 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
4176 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
4177 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
4178 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
4179 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
4180 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
4181 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
4182 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
4183 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
4184 [Steve Henson]
4185
4186 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
4187 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
4188 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
4189 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
4190 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
4191 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
4192 [Steve Henson]
4193
4194 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
4195 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
4196 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
4197 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
4198
4199 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
4200 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
4201 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
4202 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
4203 key generation.
4204 [Steve Henson]
4205
4206 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
4207 (still largely untested)
4208 [Bodo Moeller]
4209
4210 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
4211 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
4212 [Steve Henson]
4213
4214 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
4215 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
4216 [Steve Henson]
4217
4218 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
4219 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
4220 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
4221 [Bodo Moeller]
4222
4223 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
4224 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
4225 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
4226 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
4227 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
4228 [Steve Henson]
4229
4230 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
4231 [Andy Polyakov]
4232
4233 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
4234 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
4235 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
4236 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
4237 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
4238 in ca.
4239 [Steve Henson]
4240
4241 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
4242 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
4243 1.OU="Unit name 1"
4244 2.OU="Unit name 2"
4245 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
4248 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
4249 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
4250 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
4251 are otherwise ignored at present.
4252 [Steve Henson]
4253
4254 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
4255 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
4256 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
4257 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
4258 copied until the next read.
4259 [Steve Henson]
4260
4261 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
4262 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
4263 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
4264 [Steve Henson]
4265
4266 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
4267 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
4268 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
4269 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
4270 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
4271 associated functions.
4272 [Steve Henson]
4273
4274 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
4275 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
4276 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
4277 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
4278 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
4279 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
4280 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
4281 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
4282 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
4283 memory BIOs.
4284 [Steve Henson]
4285
4286 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
4287 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
4288 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
4289 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
4290 [Bodo Moeller]
4291
4292 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
4293 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
4294 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
4295 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
4296 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
4297 functionality.
4298 [Steve Henson]
4299
4300 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
4301 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
4302 under Win32.
4303 [Steve Henson]
4304
4305 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
4306 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
4307 extensions to be obtained and added.
4308 [Steve Henson]
4309
4310 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
4311 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
4312 [Bodo Moeller]
4313
4314 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
4315
4316 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
4317 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4318
4319 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
4320 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
4321
4322 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
4323 program.
4324 [Steve Henson]
4325
4326 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
4327 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
4328 DH parameters contain its length).
4329
4330 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
4331 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
4332 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
4333 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
4334 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
4335 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
4336 utter importance to use
4337 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4338 or
4339 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4340 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
4341 attacks may become possible!
4342 [Bodo Moeller]
4343
4344 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
4345 [Bodo Moeller]
4346
4347 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
4348 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
4349 [Steve Henson]
4350
4351 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
4352 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
4353 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
4354 or long name.
4355 [Steve Henson]
4356
4357 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
4358 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
4359 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
4360 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
4361 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
4362 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
4363 private key operations.
4364 [Steve Henson]
4365
4366 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
4367 [Andy Polyakov]
4368
4369 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
4370 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
4371 to
4372 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
4373 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
4374 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
4375 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
4376 the password callback is called.
4377 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
4378
4379 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
4380
4381 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
4382 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
4383 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
4384 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
4385 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
4386 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
4387 this will work.
4388
4389 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
4390 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
4391 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
4392 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
4393 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
4394 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
4395 [Bodo Moeller]
4396
4397 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
4398 [Andy Polyakov]
4399
4400 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
4401 delete an unused file.
4402 [Ulf Möller]
4403
4404 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
4405 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
4406 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
4407 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
4408 [Steve Henson]
4409
4410 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
4411 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
4412 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
4413 of an error.
4414 [Bodo Moeller]
4415
4416 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
4417 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
4418 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4419
4420 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
4421 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
4422 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
4423 comparison" warnings.
4424 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
4425 [Steve Henson]
4426
4427 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
4428 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
4429 derived keys are printed to stderr.
4430 [Steve Henson]
4431
4432 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
4433 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
4434
4435 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
4436 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
4437
4438 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
4439 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
4440 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
4441
4442 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
4443 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
4444 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
4445 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
4446 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
4447 this bug.
4448 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
4449
4450 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
4451 The interface is as follows:
4452 Applications can use
4453 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
4454 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
4455 "off" is now the default.
4456 The library internally uses
4457 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
4458 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
4459 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
4460
4461 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
4462 even the default) are now avoided.
4463
4464 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
4465 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
4466 than just having a counter.
4467
4468 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
4469
4470 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
4471 extensions.
4472 [Bodo Moeller]
4473
4474 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
4475 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
4476 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
4477 Initial "mode" flags are:
4478
4479 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
4480 a single record has been written.
4481 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
4482 retries use the same buffer location.
4483 (But all of the contents must be
4484 copied!)
4485 [Bodo Moeller]
4486
4487 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
4488 worked.
4489
4490 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
4491 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
4492
4493 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
4494 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
4495 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
4496 [Steve Henson]
4497
4498 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
4499 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
4500 test programs.
4501 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
4502
4503 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
4504 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
4505 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
4506 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
4507 point to the end.
4508 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
4509 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
4510
4511 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
4512 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
4513 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
4514 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
4515 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
4516 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
4517 [Steve Henson]
4518
4519 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
4520 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
4521 necessary function names.
4522 [Steve Henson]
4523
4524 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
4525 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
4526 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
4527 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
4528 [Bodo Moeller]
4529
4530 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
4531 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
4532 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
4533 [Steve Henson]
4534
4535 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
4536 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
4537 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
4538 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
4539 such programs?)
4540 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
4541 need locks.
4542 [Bodo Moeller]
4543
4544 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
4545 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
4546 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
4547 [Bodo Moeller]
4548
4549 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
4550 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
4551 appropriate.
4552 [Bodo Moeller]
4553
4554 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
4555 for the encoded length.
4556 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
4557
4558 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
4559 [Steve Henson]
4560
4561 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
4562 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
4563 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
4564 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
4565 [Steve Henson]
4566
4567 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
4568 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
4569 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4570
4571 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
4572 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
4573 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
4574 unusual formatting.
4575 [Steve Henson]
4576
4577 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
4578 to use the new extension code.
4579 [Steve Henson]
4580
4581 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
4582 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
4583 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
4584 constant.
4585 [Steve Henson]
4586
4587 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
4588 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
4589 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
4590 [Bodo Moeller]
4591
4592 #if 0
4593 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
4594 [Ben Laurie]
4595 #else
4596 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
4597 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
4598 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
4599 #endif
4600
4601 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
4602 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
4603 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
4604 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
4605 [Ben Laurie]
4606
4607 *) DES library cleanups.
4608 [Ulf Möller]
4609
4610 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
4611 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
4612 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
4613 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
4614 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
4615 of v2.0.
4616 [Steve Henson]
4617
4618 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
4619 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
4620 [Bodo Moeller]
4621
4622 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
4623 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
4624 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
4625 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
4626 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
4627 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
4628 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
4629 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
4630 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
4631 [Steve Henson]
4632
4633 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
4634 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
4635 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
4636 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
4637 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
4638 value doesn't matter.
4639 [Steve Henson]
4640
4641 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
4642 support mutable.
4643 [Ben Laurie]
4644
4645 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
4646 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
4647 "linux-sparc" configuration.
4648 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
4649
4650 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
4651 [Ulf Möller]
4652
4653 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
4654 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
4655 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4656
4657 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
4658 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4659
4660 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
4661 [Ben Laurie]
4662
4663 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
4664 [Ben Laurie]
4665
4666 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
4667 [Ben Laurie]
4668
4669 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
4670 [Bodo Moeller]
4671
4672
4673 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
4674
4675 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
4676
4677 *) Updated some demos.
4678 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
4679
4680 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
4681 [Wu Zhigang]
4682
4683 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
4684 [Steve Henson]
4685
4686 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
4687 [Steve Henson]
4688
4689 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
4690 instead of using a fixed path.
4691 [Bodo Moeller]
4692
4693 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
4694 [Andy Polyakov]
4695
4696 *) Improvements for VMS support.
4697 [Richard Levitte]
4698
4699
4700 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
4701
4702 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
4703 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
4704 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4705
4706 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
4707 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
4708 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
4709 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
4710 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
4711 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
4712 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
4713 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
4714 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
4715 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
4716 [Steve Henson]
4717
4718 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
4719 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
4720 [Steve Henson]
4721
4722 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
4723 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
4724 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
4725 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
4726 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
4727
4728 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
4729 [Bodo Moeller]
4730
4731 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
4732 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
4733 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
4734 [Steve Henson]
4735
4736 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
4737 [Ben Laurie]
4738
4739 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
4740 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
4741 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
4742 key elements as negative integers.
4743 [Steve Henson]
4744
4745 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
4746 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4747
4748 *) VMS support.
4749 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
4750
4751 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
4752 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
4753 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
4754 [Steve Henson]
4755
4756 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
4757 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
4758 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
4759 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
4760 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
4761 [Bodo Moeller]
4762
4763 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
4764 [Ulf Möller]
4765
4766 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
4767 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
4768 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
4769 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4770
4771 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
4772 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
4773 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
4774
4775 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
4776 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
4777 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
4778 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
4779 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
4780 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
4781 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
4782 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
4783 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
4784
4785 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
4786 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
4787 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
4788 does not influence s as it used to.
4789
4790 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
4791 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
4792 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
4793 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
4794 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
4795 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
4796 [Bodo Moeller]
4797
4798 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
4799 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
4800 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
4801 key type.
4802 [Steve Henson]
4803
4804 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
4805 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
4806 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
4807 and 'x509').
4808 [Steve Henson]
4809
4810 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
4811 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
4812 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
4813 extension option.
4814 [Steve Henson]
4815
4816 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
4817 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
4818 [Ben Laurie]
4819
4820 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
4821 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
4822
4823 *) Support Mingw32.
4824 [Ulf Möller]
4825
4826 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
4827 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4828
4829 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
4830 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4831
4832 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
4833 [Ulf Möller]
4834
4835 *) Update HPUX configuration.
4836 [Anonymous]
4837
4838 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
4839 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4840
4841 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
4842 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
4843 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
4844 DER-encoded.)
4845 [Bodo Moeller]
4846
4847 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
4848 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
4849 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
4850 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
4851 now it really counts the depth.
4852 [Bodo Moeller]
4853
4854 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
4855 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
4856 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
4857 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
4858 didn't match the private key).
4859
4860 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
4861 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
4862 connection using the SSL_CTX).
4863 [Bodo Moeller]
4864
4865 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
4866 [Ulf Möller]
4867
4868 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
4869 David Harris.
4870 [Bodo Moeller]
4871
4872 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
4873 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
4874 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
4875 [Bodo Moeller]
4876
4877 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
4878 [Bodo Moeller]
4879
4880 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
4881 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
4882 such as /usr/local/bin.
4883 [Bodo Moeller]
4884
4885 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
4886 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
4887
4888 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
4889 [Ulf Möller]
4890
4891 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
4892 extension adding in x509 utility.
4893 [Steve Henson]
4894
4895 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
4896 [Ulf Möller]
4897
4898 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
4899 prototypes.
4900 [Steve Henson]
4901
4902 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
4903 [Ulf Möller]
4904
4905 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
4906 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
4907 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
4908 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
4909 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
4910 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
4911 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
4912 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
4913 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
4914 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
4915 [Steve Henson]
4916
4917 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
4918 [Bodo Moeller]
4919
4920 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
4921 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
4922 [Bodo Moeller]
4923
4924 *) Fix some race conditions.
4925 [Bodo Moeller]
4926
4927 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
4928 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
4929 [Steve Henson]
4930
4931 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
4932 [Ulf Möller]
4933
4934 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
4935 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
4936 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
4937 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
4938
4939 *) Fix lots of warnings.
4940 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4941
4942 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
4943 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
4944 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4945
4946 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
4947 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4948
4949 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
4950 [Ulf Möller]
4951
4952 *) Fix typos in error codes.
4953 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
4954
4955 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
4956 [Ulf Möller]
4957
4958 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
4959 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
4960
4961 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
4962 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
4963 [Steve Henson]
4964
4965 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
4966 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
4967 [Ben Laurie]
4968
4969 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
4970 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
4971 [Steve Henson]
4972
4973 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
4974 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
4975 [Steve Henson]
4976
4977 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
4978 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
4979 [Steve Henson]
4980
4981 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
4982 support typesafe stack.
4983 [Steve Henson]
4984
4985 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
4986 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
4987
4988 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
4989 old X509V3 handling code.
4990 [Steve Henson]
4991
4992 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
4993 [Ulf Möller]
4994
4995 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
4996 [Bodo Moeller]
4997
4998 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
4999 [Ben Laurie]
5000
5001 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
5002 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
5003
5004 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
5005 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
5006 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
5007 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
5008 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
5009 [Ben Laurie]
5010
5011 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
5012 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
5013 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
5014 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
5015 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
5016
5017 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
5018 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
5019 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
5020 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5021
5022 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
5023 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
5024 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
5025 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5026
5027 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
5028 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
5029 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
5030 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
5031 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
5032 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
5033 [Bodo Moeller]
5034
5035 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
5036 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
5037 [Bodo Moeller]
5038
5039 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
5040 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
5041 [Ulf Möller]
5042
5043 *) Tweaks to Configure
5044 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
5045
5046 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
5047 yet...
5048 [Steve Henson]
5049
5050 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
5051 [Ulf Möller]
5052
5053 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
5054 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
5055 [Ulf Möller]
5056
5057 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
5058 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
5059 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
5060 [Bodo Moeller]
5061
5062 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
5063 [Bodo Moeller]
5064
5065 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
5066 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
5067 [Steve Henson]
5068
5069 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
5070 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
5071 to library startup routines.
5072 [Steve Henson]
5073
5074 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
5075 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
5076 codes along the way.
5077 [Steve Henson]
5078
5079 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
5080 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
5081 objects to objects.h
5082 [Steve Henson]
5083
5084 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
5085 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
5086 [Steve Henson]
5087
5088 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
5089 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
5090
5091 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
5092 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
5093 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
5094
5095 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
5096 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
5097 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5098
5099 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
5100 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
5101 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
5102
5103
5104 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
5105
5106 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
5107 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
5108 [Ben Laurie]
5109
5110 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
5111 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
5112 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
5113 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
5114 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
5115
5116 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
5117 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
5118 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
5119 document.
5120 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5121
5122 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
5123 Malloc, Free.
5124 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
5125
5126 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
5127 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5128
5129 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
5130 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
5131 if someone would make that last step automatic.
5132 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
5133
5134 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
5135 [Ben Laurie]
5136
5137 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
5138 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
5139 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
5140 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
5141 [Steve Henson]
5142
5143 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
5144 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
5145 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
5146 [Steve Henson]
5147
5148 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
5149 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
5150 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
5151 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
5152 installed as `perl').
5153 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5154
5155 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
5156 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5157
5158 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
5159 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
5160 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
5161 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
5162 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
5163 [Steve Henson]
5164
5165 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
5166 [Ben Laurie]
5167
5168 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
5169 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
5170 is horrible: I feel ill....
5171 [Steve Henson]
5172
5173 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
5174 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
5175 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
5176 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
5177 [Steve Henson]
5178
5179 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
5180 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5181
5182 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
5183 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
5184 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
5185 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5186
5187 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
5188 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
5189 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
5190 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
5191 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
5192 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
5193 openssl_bio.xs.
5194 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5195
5196 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
5197 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5198
5199 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
5200 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
5201
5202 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
5203 [Ben Laurie]
5204
5205 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
5206 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
5207 in CRLs.
5208 [Steve Henson]
5209
5210 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
5211 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
5212 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
5213 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
5214 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
5215 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
5216 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
5217 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
5218 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
5219 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
5220 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5221
5222 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
5223 [Ben Laurie]
5224
5225 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
5226 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
5227 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
5228 for linking it into DSOs.
5229 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5230
5231 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
5232 Fixed.
5233 [Ben Laurie]
5234
5235 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
5236 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
5237 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
5238 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
5239 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
5240 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5241
5242 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
5243 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
5244 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
5245 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
5246 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
5247 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
5248 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5249
5250 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
5251 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
5252 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
5253 encryption.
5254 [Ben Laurie]
5255
5256 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
5257 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
5258 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
5259 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
5260 [Steve Henson]
5261
5262 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
5263 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
5264 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
5265 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
5266 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
5267 field as blank.
5268 [Steve Henson]
5269
5270 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
5271 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
5272 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
5273 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
5274 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5275
5276 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
5277 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
5278 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5279
5280 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
5281 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5282
5283 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
5284 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
5285 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
5286 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
5287 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
5288 [Steve Henson]
5289
5290 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
5291 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
5292 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
5293 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
5294 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
5295 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
5296 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
5297 [Ben Laurie]
5298
5299 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
5300 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
5301 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
5302 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
5303 [Ben Laurie]
5304
5305 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
5306 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
5307
5308 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
5309 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
5310 [Steve Henson]
5311
5312 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
5313 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
5314 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
5315 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
5316 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
5317 (e.g. s_server).
5318 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
5319 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
5320 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
5321 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
5322 no way to reconfigure them.
5323 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
5324 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
5325 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
5326 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
5327 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
5328 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5329
5330 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
5331 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
5332 recognized by the users.
5333 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5334
5335 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
5336 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
5337 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
5338 already masked variable.
5339 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5340
5341 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
5342 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5343
5344 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
5345 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
5346 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
5347 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5348
5349 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
5350 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
5351 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5352
5353 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
5354 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
5355 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
5356 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
5357 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
5358 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
5359 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
5360 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
5361 now, too.
5362 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5363
5364 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
5365 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
5366 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5367
5368 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
5369 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
5370 config file.
5371 [Steve Henson]
5372
5373 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
5374 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5375
5376 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
5377 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
5378 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
5379 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
5380 [Ben Laurie]
5381
5382 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
5383 [Steve Henson]
5384
5385 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
5386 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5387
5388 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
5389 [Ben Laurie]
5390
5391 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
5392 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
5393 [Steve Henson]
5394
5395 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
5396 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
5397 [Steve Henson]
5398
5399 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
5400 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
5401 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
5402 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
5403 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
5404 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
5405 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
5406 Ben Laurie]
5407
5408 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
5409 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5410
5411 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
5412 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
5413 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
5414 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
5415 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5416
5417 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
5418 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
5419 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
5420 [Steve Henson]
5421
5422 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
5423 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
5424 an example.
5425 [Steve Henson]
5426
5427 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
5428 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
5429 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5430
5431 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
5432 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
5433 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
5434 build instructions.
5435 [Steve Henson]
5436
5437 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
5438 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
5439 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
5440 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
5441 [Steve Henson]
5442
5443 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
5444 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
5445 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
5446 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
5447 [Ben Laurie]
5448
5449 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
5450 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
5451 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
5452 so it wasn't spotted.
5453 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
5454
5455 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
5456 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
5457 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
5458 vectors if you have them.
5459 [Ben Laurie]
5460
5461 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
5462 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
5463 [Ben Laurie]
5464
5465 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
5466 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
5467 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
5468 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
5469 If you do a:
5470 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
5471 it will update them.
5472 [Steve Henson]
5473
5474 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
5475 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
5476 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
5477 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
5478 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
5479 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
5480 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
5481 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5482
5483 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
5484 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
5485 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
5486 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
5487 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
5488 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
5489 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
5490 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
5491 the crypto/md/ stuff).
5492 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5493
5494 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
5495 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
5496 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
5497 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
5498 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
5499 [Steve Henson]
5500
5501 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
5502 INTEGER code.
5503 [Steve Henson]
5504
5505 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
5506 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5507
5508 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
5509 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5510
5511 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
5512 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
5513 [Ben Laurie]
5514
5515 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
5516 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
5517
5518 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
5519 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
5520
5521 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
5522 [Steve Henson]
5523
5524 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
5525 few typos.
5526 [Steve Henson]
5527
5528 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
5529 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
5530 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
5531 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5532
5533 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
5534 [Steve Henson]
5535
5536 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
5537 [Steve Henson]
5538
5539 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
5540 [Steve Henson]
5541
5542 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
5543 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
5544 [Steve Henson]
5545
5546 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
5547 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
5548 CA extensions.
5549 [Steve Henson]
5550
5551 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
5552 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
5553 [Steve Henson]
5554
5555 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
5556 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
5557 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
5558 [Steve Henson]
5559
5560 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
5561 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
5562 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
5563 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
5564 properly to be processed.
5565 [Steve Henson]
5566
5567 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
5568 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
5569 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
5570 [Ben Laurie]
5571
5572 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
5573 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
5574
5575 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
5576 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
5577 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
5578 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
5579 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
5580 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
5581 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
5582 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
5583 or delete all the .err files.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
5587 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
5588 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
5589 to regenerate it if needed.
5590 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
5591 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
5592
5593 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
5594 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5595
5596 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
5597 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
5598 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
5599 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
5600 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
5601 [Steve Henson]
5602
5603 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
5604 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5605
5606 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
5607 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5608
5609 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
5610 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
5611 error, but didn't set one).
5612 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5613
5614 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
5615 [Ben Laurie]
5616
5617 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
5618 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
5619 [Steve Henson]
5620
5621 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
5622 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
5623
5624 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
5625 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
5626 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
5627 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
5628 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
5629 OID is not part of the table.
5630 [Steve Henson]
5631
5632 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
5633 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
5634 [Ben Laurie]
5635
5636 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
5637 [Ben Laurie]
5638
5639 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
5640 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
5641 was "1234").
5642 [Steve Henson]
5643
5644 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
5645 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
5646
5647 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
5648 NULL pointers.
5649 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5650
5651 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
5652 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5653
5654 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
5655 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5656
5657 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
5658 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5659
5660 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
5661 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
5662 [Ben Laurie]
5663
5664 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
5665 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
5666 [Steve Henson]
5667
5668 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
5669 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5670
5671 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
5672 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5673
5674 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
5675 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5676
5677 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
5678 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5679
5680 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
5681 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
5682 unused in the certificate verification process.
5683 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5684
5685 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
5686 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
5687 [Steve Henson]
5688
5689 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
5690 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
5691 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
5692
5693 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
5694 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
5695 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
5696 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
5697 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
5698
5699 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
5700 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
5701 [Steve Henson]
5702
5703 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
5704 [Steve Henson]
5705
5706 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
5707 [Paul Sutton]
5708
5709 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
5710 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
5711
5712 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
5713 [Ben Laurie]
5714
5715 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
5716 [Ben Laurie]
5717
5718 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
5719 [Ben Laurie]
5720
5721 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
5722 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
5723 other error libraries.
5724 [Steve Henson]
5725
5726 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
5727 [Steve Henson]
5728
5729 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
5730 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
5731 be read in.
5732 [Steve Henson]
5733
5734 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
5735 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
5736 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
5737 the new set of documenation files.
5738 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5739
5740 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
5741 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
5742 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
5743 number of arguments.
5744 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
5745
5746 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
5747 [Ben Laurie]
5748
5749 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
5750 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
5751 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5752
5753 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
5754 [Ben Laurie]
5755
5756 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
5757 nextstep
5758 ncr-scde
5759 unixware-2.0
5760 unixware-2.0-pentium
5761 sco5-cc.
5762 [Ben Laurie]
5763
5764 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
5765 before they are needed.
5766 [Ben Laurie]
5767
5768 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
5769 [Ben Laurie]
