10 Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) Removed NextStep support and the macro OPENSSL_UNISTD
13 [Rich Salz]
14
15 *) RC5_32_set_key has been changed to return an int type, with 0 indicating
16 an error and 1 indicating success. In previous versions of OpenSSL this
17 was a void type. If a key was set longer than the maximum possible this
18 would crash.
19 [Matt Caswell]
20
21 *) Support SM2 signing and verification schemes with X509 certificate.
22 [Paul Yang]
23
24 *) Use SHA256 as the default digest for TS query in the ts app.
25 [Tomas Mraz]
26
27 *) Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898.
28 This checks that the salt length is at least 128 bits, the derived key
29 length is at least 112 bits, and that the iteration count is at least 1000.
30 For backwards compatibility these checks are disabled by default in the
31 default provider, but are enabled by default in the fips provider.
32 To enable or disable these checks use the control
33 EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_PBKDF2_PKCS5_MODE.
34 [Shane Lontis]
35
36 *) Default cipher lists/suites are now avaialble via a function, the
37 #defines are deprecated.
38 [Todd Short]
39
40 *) Add target VC-WIN32-UWP, VC-WIN64A-UWP, VC-WIN32-ARM-UWP and
41 VC-WIN64-ARM-UWP in Windows OneCore target for making building libraries
42 for Windows Store apps easier. Also, the "no-uplink" option has been added.
43 [Kenji Mouri]
44
45 *) Join the directories crypto/x509 and crypto/x509v3
46 [Richard Levitte]
47
48 *) Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024.
49 This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It
50 fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH
51 generation apps to use 2048 bits by default.
52 [Kurt Roeckx]
53
54 *) Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API.
55 [Shane Lontis]
56
57 *) Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API.
58 [Shane Lontis]
59
60 *) Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such
61 as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info'
62 for scripting purposes.
63 [Richard Levitte]
64
65 *) The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been
66 deprecated. These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP
67 layer and implement the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES
68 Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and
69 usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular
70 AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one
71 is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but
72 this issue was never fixed for backwards compatibility reasons. New code
73 should not use these modes.
74 [Matt Caswell]
75
76 *) Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process.
77 [Paul Dale]
78
79 *) Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as
80 mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018.
81 [Paul Dale]
82
83 *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst.
84 This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum'
85 checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility.
86 [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale]
87
88 *) Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very
89 little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose.
90 The configuration option is now deprecated.
91 [Richard Levitte]
92
93 *) Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the
94 digest name in its output.
95 [Richard Levitte]
96
97 *) Added a new generic trace API which provides support for enabling
98 instrumentation through trace output. This feature is mainly intended
99 as an aid for developers and is disabled by default. To utilize it,
100 OpenSSL needs to be configured with the `enable-trace` option.
101
102 If the tracing API is enabled, the application can activate trace output
103 by registering BIOs as trace channels for a number of tracing and debugging
104 categories.
105
106 The 'openssl' application has been expanded to enable any of the types
107 available via environment variables defined by the user, and serves as
108 one possible example on how to use this functionality.
109 [Richard Levitte & Matthias St. Pierre]
110
111 *) Added build tests for C++. These are generated files that only do one
112 thing, to include one public OpenSSL head file each. This tests that
113 the public header files can be usefully included in a C++ application.
114
115 This test isn't enabled by default. It can be enabled with the option
116 'enable-buildtest-c++'.
117 [Richard Levitte]
118
119 *) Add Single Step KDF (EVP_KDF_SS) to EVP_KDF.
120 [Shane Lontis]
121
122 *) Add KMAC to EVP_MAC.
123 [Shane Lontis]
124
125 *) Added property based algorithm implementation selection framework to
126 the core.
127 [Paul Dale]
128
129 *) Added SCA hardening for modular field inversion in EC_GROUP through
130 a new dedicated field_inv() pointer in EC_METHOD.
131 This also addresses a leakage affecting conversions from projective
132 to affine coordinates.
133 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
134
135 *) Added EVP_KDF, an EVP layer KDF API, to simplify adding KDF and PRF
136 implementations. This includes an EVP_PKEY to EVP_KDF bridge for
137 those algorithms that were already supported through the EVP_PKEY API
138 (scrypt, TLS1 PRF and HKDF). The low-level KDF functions for PBKDF2
139 and scrypt are now wrappers that call EVP_KDF.
140 [David Makepeace]
141
142 *) Build devcrypto engine as a dynamic engine.
143 [Eneas U de Queiroz]
144
145 *) Add keyed BLAKE2 to EVP_MAC.
146 [Antoine Salon]
147
148 *) Fix a bug in the computation of the endpoint-pair shared secret used
149 by DTLS over SCTP. This breaks interoperability with older versions
150 of OpenSSL like OpenSSL 1.1.0 and OpenSSL 1.0.2. There is a runtime
151 switch SSL_MODE_DTLS_SCTP_LABEL_LENGTH_BUG (off by default) enabling
152 interoperability with such broken implementations. However, enabling
153 this switch breaks interoperability with correct implementations.
154
155 *) Fix a use after free bug in d2i_X509_PUBKEY when overwriting a
156 re-used X509_PUBKEY object if the second PUBKEY is malformed.
157 [Bernd Edlinger]
158
159 *) Move strictness check from EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() to EVP_PKEY_asn1_add0().
160 [Richard Levitte]
161
162 *) Change the license to the Apache License v2.0.
163 [Richard Levitte]
164
165 *) Change the possible version information given with OPENSSL_API_COMPAT.
166 It may be a pre-3.0.0 style numerical version number as it was defined
167 in 1.1.0, and it may also simply take the major version number.
168
169 Because of the version numbering of pre-3.0.0 releases, the values 0,
170 1 and 2 are equivalent to 0x00908000L (0.9.8), 0x10000000L (1.0.0) and
171 0x10100000L (1.1.0), respectively.
172 [Richard Levitte]
173
174 *) Switch to a new version scheme using three numbers MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
175
176 o Major releases (indicated by incrementing the MAJOR release number)
177 may introduce incompatible API/ABI changes.
178 o Minor releases (indicated by incrementing the MINOR release number)
179 may introduce new features but retain API/ABI compatibility.
180 o Patch releases (indicated by incrementing the PATCH number)
181 are intended for bug fixes and other improvements of existing
182 features only (like improving performance or adding documentation)
183 and retain API/ABI compatibility.
184 [Richard Levitte]
185
186 *) Add support for RFC5297 SIV mode (siv128), including AES-SIV.
187 [Todd Short]
188
189 *) Remove the 'dist' target and add a tarball building script. The
190 'dist' target has fallen out of use, and it shouldn't be
191 necessary to configure just to create a source distribution.
192 [Richard Levitte]
193
194 *) Recreate the OS390-Unix config target. It no longer relies on a
195 special script like it did for OpenSSL pre-1.1.0.
196 [Richard Levitte]
197
198 *) Instead of having the source directories listed in Configure, add
199 a 'build.info' keyword SUBDIRS to indicate what sub-directories to
200 look into.
201 [Richard Levitte]
202
203 *) Add GMAC to EVP_MAC.
204 [Paul Dale]
205
206 *) Ported the HMAC, CMAC and SipHash EVP_PKEY_METHODs to EVP_MAC.
207 [Richard Levitte]
208
209 *) Added EVP_MAC, an EVP layer MAC API, to simplify adding MAC
210 implementations. This includes a generic EVP_PKEY to EVP_MAC bridge,
211 to facilitate the continued use of MACs through raw private keys in
212 functionality such as EVP_DigestSign* and EVP_DigestVerify*.
213 [Richard Levitte]
214
215 *) Deprecate ECDH_KDF_X9_62() and mark its replacement as internal. Users
216 should use the EVP interface instead (EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_ecdh_kdf_type).
217 [Antoine Salon]
218
219 *) Added EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_63 and ecdh_KDF_X9_63() as replacements for
220 the EVP_PKEY_ECDH_KDF_X9_62 KDF type and ECDH_KDF_X9_62(). The old names
221 are retained for backwards compatibility.
222 [Antoine Salon]
223
224 *) AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
225 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
226 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
227 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
228 http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf
229 [Paul Dale]
230
231 *) Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
232 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
233 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
234 [Richard Levitte]
235
236 *) Added new option for 'openssl list', '-objects', which will display the
237 list of built in objects, i.e. OIDs with names.
238 [Richard Levitte]
239
240 *) Added support for Linux Kernel TLS data-path. The Linux Kernel data-path
241 improves application performance by removing data copies and providing
242 applications with zero-copy system calls such as sendfile and splice.
243 [Boris Pismenny]
244
245 Changes between 1.1.1a and 1.1.1b [xx XXX xxxx]
246
247 *) Change the info callback signals for the start and end of a post-handshake
248 message exchange in TLSv1.3. In 1.1.1/1.1.1a we used SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_START
249 and SSL_CB_HANDSHAKE_DONE. Experience has shown that many applications get
250 confused by this and assume that a TLSv1.2 renegotiation has started. This
251 can break KeyUpdate handling. Instead we no longer signal the start and end
252 of a post handshake message exchange (although the messages themselves are
253 still signalled). This could break some applications that were expecting
254 the old signals. However without this KeyUpdate is not usable for many
255 applications.
256 [Matt Caswell]
257
258 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.1a [20 Nov 2018]
259
260 *) Timing vulnerability in DSA signature generation
261
262 The OpenSSL DSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
263 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
264 algorithm to recover the private key.
265
266 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 16th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
267 (CVE-2018-0734)
268 [Paul Dale]
269
270 *) Timing vulnerability in ECDSA signature generation
271
272 The OpenSSL ECDSA signature algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a
273 timing side channel attack. An attacker could use variations in the signing
274 algorithm to recover the private key.
275
276 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 25th October 2018 by Samuel Weiser.
277 (CVE-2018-0735)
278 [Paul Dale]
279
280 *) Fixed the issue that RAND_add()/RAND_seed() silently discards random input
281 if its length exceeds 4096 bytes. The limit has been raised to a buffer size
282 of two gigabytes and the error handling improved.
283
284 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Dr. Falko Strenzke. It has been
285 categorized as a normal bug, not a security issue, because the DRBG reseeds
286 automatically and is fully functional even without additional randomness
287 provided by the application.
288
289 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
290
291 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
292 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
293 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
294 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
295 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
296 of the ClientHello
297 [Benjamin Kaduk]
298
299 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
300 [Jack Lloyd]
301
302 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
303 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
304 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
305 [Patrick Steuer]
306
307 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
308 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
309 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
310 [Richard Levitte]
311
312 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
313 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
314 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
315 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
316 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
317 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
318 to work in projective coordinates.
319 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
320
321 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
322 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
323 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
324 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
325 to 2^-128.
326 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
327
328 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
329 [Kurt Roeckx]
330
331 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
332 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
333 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
334 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
335 [Richard Levitte]
336
337 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
338 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
339 [Andy Polyakov]
340
341 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
342 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
343 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
344 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
345 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
346
347 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
348 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
349 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
350 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
351 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
352 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
353
354 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
355 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
356 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
357 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
358 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
359 [Paul Dale]
360
361 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
362 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
363 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
364 authors.
365 [Matt Caswell]
366
367 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
368 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
369 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
370 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
371 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
372 multi-version installation is managed.
373 [Andy Polyakov]
374
375 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
376 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
377 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
378 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
379 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
380 [Billy Bob Brumley]
381
382 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
383 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
384 chosen point SCA attacks.
385 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
386
387 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
388 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
389 [Matt Caswell]
390
391 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
392 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
393 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
394 [Matt Caswell]
395
396 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
397 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
398 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
399 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
400 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
401 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
402 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
403 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
404 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
405 [Kurt Roeckx]
406
407 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
408 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
409 [Richard Levitte]
410
411 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
412 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
413 [Billy Bob Brumley]
414
415 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
416 binary and prime elliptic curves.
417 [Billy Bob Brumley]
418
419 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
420 constant time fixed point multiplication.
421 [Billy Bob Brumley]
422
423 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
424 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
425 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
426 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
427 ECDH derive operations).
428 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
429 Sohaib ul Hassan]
430
431 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
432 [Rich Salz]
433
434 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
435 randomness from the system.
436 [Matthias St. Pierre]
437
438 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
439 [Richard Levitte]
440
441 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
442 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
443 [Matt Caswell]
444
445 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
446 [Matt Caswell]
447
448 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
449 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
450
451 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
452 [Richard Levitte]
453
454 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
455 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
456 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
457 [Matt Caswell]
458
459 *) Memory allocation failures consistenly add an error to the error
460 stack.
461 [Rich Salz]
462
463 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
464 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
465 [Bernd Edlinger]
466
467 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
468 [Matt Caswell]
469
470 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
471 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
472 [Matthias St. Pierre]
473
474 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
475 for the license change).
476 [Rich Salz]
477
478 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
479 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
480 [Matt Caswell]
481
482 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
483 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
484 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
485 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
486 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
487 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
488 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
489 [Matt Caswell]
490
491 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
492 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
493 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
494 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
495 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
496 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
497 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
498 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
499 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
500 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
501 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
502 written to stderr.
503 [Viktor Dukhovni]
504
505 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
506 Mike Hamburg.
507 [Matt Caswell]
508
509 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
510 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
511 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
512 get the search data out of them.
513 [Richard Levitte]
514
515 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
516 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
517 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
518 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
519 [Matt Caswell]
520
521 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
522
523 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
524 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
525 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
526 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
527 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
528 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
529
530 Some of its new features are:
531 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
532 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
533 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
534 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
535 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
536 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
537 operation
538 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
539
540 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
541 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
542 to display all sorts of configuration data.
543 [Richard Levitte]
544
545 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
546 [Richard Levitte]
547
548 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
549 [Paul Dale]
550
551 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
552 now been removed.
553 [Rich Salz]
554
555 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
556 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
557 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
558 debug (or make silent).
559 [Richard Levitte]
560
561 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
562 arguments to config / Configure.
563 [Richard Levitte]
564
565 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
566 [Paul Yang]
567
568 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
569 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
570 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
571 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
572
573 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
574 as documented in RFC6066.
575 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
576 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
577
578 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
579 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
580 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
581 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
582
583 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
584 original author does not agree with the license change.
585 [Rich Salz]
586
587 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
588 [Jon Spillett]
589
590 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
591 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
592 [Rich Salz]
593
594 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
595 without clearing the errors.
596 [Richard Levitte]
597
598 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
599 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
600 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
601 [Rich Salz]
602
603 *) Add SHA3.
604 [Andy Polyakov]
605
606 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
607 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
608 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
609 as a fallback).
610
611 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
612 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
613 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
614 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
615 [Richard Levitte]
616
617 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
618 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
619 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
620 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
621 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
622 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
623 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
624 [Richard Levitte]
625
626 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
627 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
628 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
629 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
630 [Richard Levitte]
631
632 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
633 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
634 error code calls like this:
635
636 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
637
638 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
639 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
640 affect new modules.
641 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
642
643 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
644 [Rich Salz]
645
646 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
647 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
648 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
649 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
650 [Richard Levitte]
651
652 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
653 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
654 than just the call where this user data is passed.
655 [Richard Levitte]
656
657 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
658 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
659 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
660
661 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
662 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
663 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
664 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
665 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
666 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
667 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
668 issues.
669 [Matt Caswell]
670
671 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
672 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
673 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
674 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
675 [Richard Levitte]
676
677 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
678 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
679 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
680
681 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
682 does for RSA, etc.
683 [Richard Levitte]
684
685 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
686 platform rather than 'mingw'.
687 [Richard Levitte]
688
689 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
690 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
691 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
692 certificates and CRLs.
693 [Paul Dale]
694
695 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
696 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
697 [Andy Polyakov]
698
699 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
700 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
701 [Richard Levitte]
702
703 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
704 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
705 which is the minimum version we support.
706 [Richard Levitte]
707
708 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
709 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
710 are no longer allowed.
711 [Emilia Käsper]
712
713 *) Add support for ARIA
714 [Paul Dale]
715
716 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
717 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
718 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
719 using "-servername".
720 [Matt Caswell]
721
722 *) Add support for SipHash
723 [Todd Short]
724
725 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
726 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
727 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
728 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
729 [Matt Caswell]
730
731 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
732 using the algorithm defined in
733 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
734 [Richard Levitte]
735
736 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
737 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
738
739 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
740 [Emilia Käsper]
741
742 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
743 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
744 [Rich Salz]
745
746
747 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
748
749 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
750
751 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
752 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
753 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
754 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
755 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
756
757 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
758 (CVE-2018-0732)
759 [Guido Vranken]
760
761 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
762
763 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
764 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
765 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
766 recover the private key.
767
768 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
769 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
770 (CVE-2018-0737)
771 [Billy Brumley]
772
773 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
774 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
775 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
776 [Richard Levitte]
777
778 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
779 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
780 [Andy Polyakov]
781
782 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
783 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
784 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
785 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
786 to 2^-128.
787 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
788
789 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
790 [Kurt Roeckx]
791
792 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
793 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
794 [Matt Caswell]
795
796 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
797 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
798 [Richard Levitte]
799
800 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
801 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
802 are no longer allowed.
803 [Emilia Käsper]
804
805 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
806
807 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
808 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
809 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
810 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
811 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
812 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
813 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
814 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
815 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
816 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
817 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
818 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
819 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).
820 [Matt Caswell]
821
822 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
823
824 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
825
826 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
827 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
828 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
829 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
830 so this is considered safe.
831
832 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
833 project.
834 (CVE-2018-0739)
835 [Matt Caswell]
836
837 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
838
839 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
840 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
841 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
842 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
843 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
844 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
845
846 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
847 (IBM).
848 (CVE-2018-0733)
849 [Andy Polyakov]
850
851 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
852 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
853 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
854 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
855 [Richard Levitte]
856
857 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
858
859 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
860 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
861 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
862 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
863 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
864
865 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
866 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
867 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
868 [Matt Caswell]
869
870 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
871 exist.
872 [Rich Salz]
873
874 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
875
876 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
877 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
878 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
879 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
880 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
881 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
882 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
883 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
884 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
885 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
886
887 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
888 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
889
890 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
891 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
892 (CVE-2017-3738)
893 [Andy Polyakov]
894
895 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
896
897 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
898
899 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
900 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
901 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
902 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
903 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
904 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
905 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
906 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
907 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
908 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
909 key that is shared between multiple clients.
910
911 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
912 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
913
914 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
915 (CVE-2017-3736)
916 [Andy Polyakov]
917
918 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
919
920 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
921 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
922 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
923
924 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
925 (CVE-2017-3735)
926 [Rich Salz]
927
928 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
929
930 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
931 platform rather than 'mingw'.
932 [Richard Levitte]
933
934 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.

939 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
940
941 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
942
943 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
944 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
945 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
946 and servers are affected.

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

996
997 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
998
999 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
1000 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
1001 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.

1004 (CVE-2016-7054)
1005 [Richard Levitte]
1006
1007 *) CMS Null dereference
1008
1009 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
1010 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
1011 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
1012 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
1013 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
1014 affected.
1015
1016 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
1017 (CVE-2016-7053)
1018 [Stephen Henson]
1019
1020 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
1021
1022 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
1023 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
1024 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
1025 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
1026 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
1027 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
1028 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
1029 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
1030 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
1031 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
1032 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
1033 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
1034 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
1035 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
1036
1037 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
1038 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
1039 providing reproducible case.
1040 (CVE-2016-7055)
1041 [Andy Polyakov]
1042
1043 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
1044 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
1045 [Richard Levitte]
1046
1047 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
1048
1049 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
1050
1051 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
1052 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
1053 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
1054 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
1055 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
1056 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
1057
1058 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
1059
1060 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
1061 (CVE-2016-6309)
1062 [Matt Caswell]
1063
1064 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
1065
1066 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
1067
1068 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
1069 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
1070 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
1071 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
1072 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
1073 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
1074 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
1075
1076 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1077 (CVE-2016-6304)
1078 [Matt Caswell]
1079
1080 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
1081
1082 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
1083 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
1084 Denial Of Service attack.
1085
1086 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
1087 (CVE-2016-6305)
1088 [Matt Caswell]
1089
1090 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
1091 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
1092
1093 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
1094 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
1095 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
1096 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
1097 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
1098 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
1099 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
1100 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
1101 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
1102 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
1103 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
1104 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
1105 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
1106 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
1107 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
1108
1109 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
1110 that the connection fails
1111 or
1112 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
1113 very little free memory
1114 or
1115 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
1116 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
1117 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
1118 memory to service the multiple requests.
1119
1120 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
1121 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
1122 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
1123 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
1124 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.
1125
1126 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
1127 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
1128 [Matt Caswell]
1129
1130 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
1131 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
1132 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
1133 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
1134 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
1135 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
1136 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
1137 [Andy Polyakov]
1138
1139 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
1140
1141 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
1142 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
1143 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
1144 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
1145 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
1146 non-ASCII password.
1147 [Andy Polyakov]
1148
1149 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
1150 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
1151 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
1152 [Rich Salz]
1153
1154 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
1155 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
1156 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
1157 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
1158 [Matt Caswell]
1159
1160 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
1161 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
1162 success.
1163 [Matt Caswell]
1164
1165 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
1166 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
1167 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
1168 no-ops and deprecated.
1169 [Matt Caswell]
1170
1171 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
1172 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
1173 were also closed.
1174 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
1175
1176 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
1177 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
1178 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
1179 [Rich Salz]
1180
1181 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
1182 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
1183 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
1184 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
1185 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
1186 and the validity of object reference counter.
1187 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
1188
1189 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
1190 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
1191 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
1192 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
1193 [Richard Levitte]
1194
1195 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
1196 [Richard Levitte]
1197
1198 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
1199 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
1200 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
1201 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
1202
1203 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
1204
1205 [Richard Levitte]
1206
1207 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
1208 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
1209 [Steve Henson]
1210
1211 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
1212 [Andy Polyakov]
1213
1214 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
1215 [Rich Salz]
1216
1217 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
1218 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
1219 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
1220 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
1221 name and is used as is.
1222 [Richard Levitte]
1223
1224 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
1225 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
1226 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
1227 [Rich Salz]
1228
1229 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
1230 the "no-shared" Configure option.
1231 [Matt Caswell]
1232
1233 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
1234 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
1235 algorithms.
1236 [Matt Caswell]
1237
1238 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
1239 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
1240 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
1241 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
1242 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
1243 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
1244 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
1245 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
1246 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
1247 [Matt Caswell]
1248
1249 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
1250 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
1251 enabled with '--debug' builds.
1252 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
1253
1254 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
1255 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1256 these have been added.
1257 [Matt Caswell]
1258
1259 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
1260 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
1261 functions for managing these have been added.
1262 [Richard Levitte]
1263
1264 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1265 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1266 these have been added.
1267 [Matt Caswell]
1268
1269 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1270 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1271 have been added.
1272 [Matt Caswell]
1273
1274 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1275 [Matt Caswell]
1276
1277 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1278 [Richard Levitte]
1279
1280 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1281 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1282 [Rich Salz]
1283
1284 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1285 [Richard Levitte]
1286
1287 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1288 [Rich Salz]
1289
1290 *) Add support for HKDF.
1291 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1292
1293 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1294 [Bill Cox]
1295
1296 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1297 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1298 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1299 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1300 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1301 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1302 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1303 [Matt Caswell]
1304
1305 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1306 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1307 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1308 [Catriona Lucey]
1309
1310 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1311 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1312 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1313 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1314 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1315 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1316 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1317
1318 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1319 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1320 [Todd Short]
1321
1322 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1323 [Todd Short]
1324
1325 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1326 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1327 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1328 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1329 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1330 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1331 default cipherlist.
1332 [Emilia Käsper]
1333
1334 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1335 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1336 [Rich Salz]
1337
1338 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1339 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1340 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1341 [Matt Caswell]
1342
1343 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1344 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1345 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1346 implemented by other servers.
1347 [Emilia Käsper]
1348
1349 *) Add X25519 support.
1350 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1351 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1352 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1353 key generation and key derivation.
1354
1355 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1356 X25519(29).
1357 [Steve Henson]
1358
1359 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1360 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1361 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1362 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1363 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1364
1365 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1366 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1367 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1368 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1369 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1370 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1371 that of a valid user.
1372 [Emilia Käsper]
1373
1374 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1375 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1376 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1377 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1378
1379 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1380 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1381
1382 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1383 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1384 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1385 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1386
1387 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1388 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1389 irrelevant.
1390 [Richard Levitte]
1391
1392 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1393 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1394 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1395 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1396 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1397 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1398
1399 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1400 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1401 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1402 [Richard Levitte]
1403
1404 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1405 [Rich Salz]
1406
1407 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1408 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1409 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1410 removed.
1411 [Richard Levitte]
1412
1413 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1414 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1415 old #define's might need to be updated.
1416 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1417
1418 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1419 [Rich Salz]
1420
1421 *) New "unified" build system
1422
1423 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1424 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1425
1426 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1427 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1428 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1429
1430 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1431 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1432 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1433 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1434 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1435
1436 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1437 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1438 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1439 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1440 libraries" in INSTALL.
1441
1442 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1443 [Richard Levitte]
1444
1445 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1446 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1447 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1448 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1449 [Matt Caswell]
1450
1451 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1452 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1453
1454 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1455 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1456 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1457 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1458 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1459 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1460 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1461 have been adapted accordingly.
1462 [Richard Levitte]
1463
1464 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1465 the leading 0-byte.
1466 [Emilia Käsper]
1467
1468 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1469 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1470 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1471 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1472 [Emilia Käsper]
1473
1474 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1475 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1476 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1477 'unsigned char*'.
1478 [Emilia Käsper]
1479
1480 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1481 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1482 [Emilia Käsper]
1483
1484 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1485 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1486 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1487 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1488 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1489 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1490 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1491
1492 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1493 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1494
1495 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1496 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1497 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1498 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1499 Text::Template.
1500
1501 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1502 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1503 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1504 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1505 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1506 %target).
1507 [Richard Levitte]
1508
1509 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1510 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1511 straightforward and less interdependent.
1512
1513 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1514 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1515 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1516
1517 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1518 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1519 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1520 installed.
1521 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1522 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1523 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1524 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1525
1526 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1527 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1528 [Richard Levitte]
1529
1530 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1531 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1532 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1533 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1534 is present).
1535 [Matt Caswell]
1536
1537 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1538 configuring.
1539 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1540
1541 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1542 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1543 before trying to build now.*
1544 [Rich Salz]
1545
1546 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1547 has changed.
1548 [Rich Salz]
1549
1550 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1551
1552 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1553 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1554 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1555 used to authenticate the peer.
1556
1557 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1558 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1559 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1560 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1561 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1562 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1563
1564 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1565 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1566 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1567 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1568 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1569 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1570
1571 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1572 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1573 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1574 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1575 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1576 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1577 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1578 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1579 version.
1580
1581 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1582 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1583 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1584 compile with later releases.
1585
1586 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1587 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1588 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1589 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1590 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1591 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1592
1593 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1594 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1595 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1596 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1597 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1598 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1599 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1600 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1601 [Kurt Roeckx]
1602
1603 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1604 [Andy Polyakov]
1605
1606 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1607 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1608 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1609 ECDSA_SIG format.
1610
1611 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1612 include the ec.h header file instead.
1613 [Steve Henson]
1614
1615 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1616 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1617 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1618 [Kurt Roeckx]
1619
1620 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1621 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1622 were added:
1623
1624 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1625 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1626
1627 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1628 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1629 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1630
1631 Additional changes:
1632 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1633 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1634 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1635 an already created structure.
1636 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1637 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1638 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1639 for deprecated builds.
1640 [Richard Levitte]
1641
1642 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1643 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1644 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1645 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1646 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1647 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1648 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1649 [Matt Caswell]
1650
1651 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1652 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1653 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1654 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1655 [Kurt Roeckx]
1656
1657 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1658 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1659 [Kurt Roeckx]
1660
1661 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1662 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1663 [Kurt Roeckx]
1664
1665 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1666 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1667 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1668 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1669 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1670 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1671 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1672 also been removed.
1673 [Matt Caswell]
1674
1675 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1676 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1677 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1678 [Rich Salz]
1679
1680 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1681 [Rich Salz]
1682
1683 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1684 sureware and ubsec.
1685 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1686
1687 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1688
1689 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1690 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1691
1692 FOO *x;
1693
1694 it must be:
1695
1696 FOO x;
1697
1698 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1699 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1700
1701 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1702 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1703 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1704 SEQUENCE OF.
1705 [Steve Henson]
1706
1707 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1708 [Emilia Käsper]
1709
1710 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1711 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1712 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1713 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1714 [Matt Caswell]
1715
1716 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1717 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1718 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1719 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1720 [Emilia Käsper]
1721
1722 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1723 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1724 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1725
1726 *) New testing framework
1727 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1728 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1729 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1730 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1731 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1732 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1733
1734 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1735
1736 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1737 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1738
1739 [Richard Levitte]
1740
1741 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1742 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1743 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1744 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1745 [Rich Salz]
1746
1747 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1748 return an error
1749 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1750
1751 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1752 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1753
1754 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1755 original RSA_PSK patch.
1756 [Steve Henson]
1757
1758 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1759 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1760 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1761 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1762 [Matt Caswell]
1763
1764 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1765 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1766 [Richard Levitte]
1767
1768 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1769 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1770 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1771 [Emilia Käsper]
1772
1773 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1774 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1775 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1776 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1777 transferred.
1778 [Matt Caswell]
1779
1780 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1781 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1782 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1783 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1784 [Matt Caswell]
1785
1786 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1787 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1788 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1789 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1790 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1791 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1792 [Matt Caswell]
1793
1794 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1795 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1796 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1797 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1798 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1799 header file has been removed.
1800 [Matt Caswell]
1801
1802 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1803 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1804 [Matt Caswell]
1805
1806 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1807 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1808 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1809
1810 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1811 Added a test.
1812 [Rich Salz]
1813
1814 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1815 [Rich Salz]
1816
1817 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1818 sha256
1819 [Rich Salz]
1820
1821 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1822 [Matt Caswell]
1823
1824 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1825 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1826 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1827 [Steve Henson]
1828
1829 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1830 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1831 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1832 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1833 [Matt Caswell]
1834
1835 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1836 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1837 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1838 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1839 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1840 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1841 [Matt Caswell]
1842
1843 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1844 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1845 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1846 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1847 [Matt Caswell]
1848
1849 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1850 compatible client hello.
1851 [Kurt Roeckx]
1852
1853 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1854 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1855 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1856
1857 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1858 [Rich Salz]
1859
1860 *) Removed old DES API.
1861 [Rich Salz]
1862
1863 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1864 Sony NEWS4
1865 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1866 NeXT
1867 SUNOS
1868 MPE/iX
1869 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1870 DGUX
1871 NCR
1872 Tandem
1873 Cray
1874 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1875 [Rich Salz]
1876
1877 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1878 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1879 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1880 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1881 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1882 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1883 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1884 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1885 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1886 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1887 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1888 [Rich Salz]
1889
1890 *) Cleaned up dead code
1891 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1892 [Rich Salz]
1893
1894 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1895 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1896 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1897 [Rich Salz]
1898
1899 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1900 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1901 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1902 [Rich Salz]
1903
1904 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1905 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1906 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1907
1908 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1909 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1910 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1911
1912 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1913 compilation flags.
1914 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1915
1916 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1917 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1918 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1919
1920 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1921 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1922
1923 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1924 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1925 server.
1926
1927 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1928 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1929 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1930 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1931
1932 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1933 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1934 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1935 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1936
1937 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1938 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1939 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1940
1941 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1942 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1943 [Steve Henson]
1944
1945 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
1946
1947 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
1948 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
1949
1950 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
1951 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
1952
1953 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
1954 effect.
1955
1956 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
1957
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1961 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1962 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1963 algorithms and include tests cases.
1964 [Steve Henson]
1965
1966 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
1967 enveloped data.
1968 [Steve Henson]
1969
1970 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1971 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1972 [Steve Henson]
1973
1974 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1975 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1976
1977 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1978 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1979 [Steve Henson]
1980
1981 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1982 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1983 failures.
1984 [Steve Henson]
1985
1986 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1987 sign or verify all in one operation.
1988 [Steve Henson]
1989
1990 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1991 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1992 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
1993 [Steve Henson]
1994
1995 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
1996 [Steve Henson]
1997
1998 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
1999 [Steve Henson]
2000
2001 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
2002 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
2003 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
2004 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
2005 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
2006 [Steve Henson]
2007
2008 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
2009 based on NID.
2010 [Steve Henson]
2011
2012 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
2013 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
2014 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
2015 [Steve Henson]
2016
2017 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
2018 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
2019
2020 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
2021 POST to handle HMAC cases.
2022 [Steve Henson]
2023
2024 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
2025 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
2029 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
2030 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2031 [Steve Henson]
2032
2033 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
2034 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
2035 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
2036 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
2037 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
2038 requested amount of entropy.
2039 [Steve Henson]
2040
2041 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
2042 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
2043 [Steve Henson]
2044
2045 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
2046 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
2047 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
2048 support.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
2052 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
2053 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
2054 [Steve Henson]
2055
2056 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
2057 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
2058 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
2059 will never use XTS mode.
2060 [Steve Henson]
2061
2062 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
2063 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
2064 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
2065 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
2066 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
2067 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
2068 [Steve Henson]
2069
2070 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
2071 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
2072 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
2073 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
2074 [Steve Henson]
2075
2076 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
2077 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
2078 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
2079 [Steve Henson]
2080
2081 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
2082 [Steve Henson]
2083
2084 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
2085 [Steve Henson]
2086
2087 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
2088 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
2089 [Steve Henson]
2090
2091 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
2092 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
2093 [Steve Henson]
2094
2095 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
2096 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
2097 [Steve Henson]
2098
2099 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
2100 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
2101 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
2102 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
2103 and rename any affected symbols.
2104 [Steve Henson]
2105
2106 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
2107 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
2108 [Steve Henson]
2109
2110 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
2111 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
2112 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
2113 [Steve Henson]
2114
2115 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
2116 [Steve Henson]
2117
2118 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
2119 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
2120 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
2121 [Steve Henson]
2122
2123 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
2124 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
2125 [Steve Henson]
2126
2127 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
2128 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
2129 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
2130 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
2131 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
2132 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
2133 set before the key.
2134 [Steve Henson]
2135
2136 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
2137 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
2138 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
2139 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
2140 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
2141 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
2142 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
2143 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
2144 [Steve Henson]
2145
2146 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
2147 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
2148 [Steve Henson]
2149
2150 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
2151
2152 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2153 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
2154
2155 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
2156 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
2157 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
2158 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
2159 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
2160 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
2161
2162 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
2163 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
2164 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
2165 security.
2166 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2167
2168 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
2169 parameters by name.
2170 [Steve Henson]
2171
2172 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
2173 Add CMAC pkey methods.
2174 [Steve Henson]
2175
2176 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
2177 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
2178 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
2179 [Steve Henson]
2180
2181 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
2182 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
2183 multi-process servers.
2184 [Steve Henson]
2185
2186 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
2187 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
2188 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
2189 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
2190 RAND_METHOD structure.
2191 [Steve Henson]
2192
2193 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
2194 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
2195 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
2196 whose return value is often ignored.
2197 [Steve Henson]
2198
2199 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
2200 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
2201 validated when establishing a connection.
2202 [Rob Percival <robpercival@google.com>]

2204 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
2205
2206 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
2207
2208 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
2209 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
2210 AES-NI.
2211
2212 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
2213 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
2214 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
2215 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
2216 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
2217 bytes.
2218
2219 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
2220 (CVE-2016-2107)
2221 [Kurt Roeckx]
2222
2223 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
2224
2225 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
2226 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
2227 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
2228 corruption.
2229
2230 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
2231 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
2232 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
2233 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
2234 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
2235 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
2236
2237 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2238 (CVE-2016-2105)
2239 [Matt Caswell]
2240
2241 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
2242
2243 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
2244 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
2245 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
2246 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
2247 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
2248 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
2249 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
2250 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
2251 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
2252 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
2253 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
2254 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
2255 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
2256 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
2257 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
2258 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
2259
2260 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2261 (CVE-2016-2106)
2262 [Matt Caswell]
2263
2264 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2265
2266 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2267 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2268 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2269
2270 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2271 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2272 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2273 applications are not affected.
2274
2275 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
2276 (CVE-2016-2109)
2277 [Stephen Henson]
2278
2279 *) EBCDIC overread
2280
2281 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2282 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2283 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
2284
2285 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
2286 (CVE-2016-2176)
2287 [Matt Caswell]
2288
2289 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
2290 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
2291 [Todd Short]
2292
2293 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
2294 default.
2295 [Kurt Roeckx]
2296
2297 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
2298 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
2299 [Kurt Roeckx]
2300
2301 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2302
2303 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2304 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2305 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2306 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2307
2308 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2309 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2310 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2311 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2312 will need to explicitly call either of:
2313
2314 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2315 or
2316 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2317
2318 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2319 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2320 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2321 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2322 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
2323 (CVE-2016-0800)
2324 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2325
2326 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2327
2328 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2329 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2330 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2331 considered rare.
2332
2333 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2334 libFuzzer.
2335 (CVE-2016-0705)
2336 [Stephen Henson]
2337
2338 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2339
2340 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2341
2342 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2343 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2344 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2345 is configured.
2346
2347 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2348 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2349 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2350 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2351 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2352 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2353 that of a valid user.
2354 (CVE-2016-0798)
2355 [Emilia Käsper]
2356
2357 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2358
2359 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2360 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2361 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2362 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2363 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2364 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2365 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2366 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2367 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2368 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2369 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2370
2371 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2372 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2373 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2374 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2375 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2376
2377 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2378 (CVE-2016-0797)
2379 [Matt Caswell]
2380
2381 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2382
2383 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2384 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2385 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2386
2387 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2388 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2389 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2390 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2391 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2392 also occur.
2393
2394 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2395 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2396 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2397 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2398 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2399 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2400 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2401 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2402 as command line arguments.
2403
2404 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2405 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2406 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2407
2408 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2409 (CVE-2016-0799)
2410 [Matt Caswell]
2411
2412 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2413
2414 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2415 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2416 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2417 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2418 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2419
2420 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2421 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and

2426
2427 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
2428 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2429 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2430 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2431 [Emilia Käsper]
2432
2433 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2434 *) DH small subgroups
2435
2436 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2437 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2438 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2439 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2440 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2441 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2442 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2443 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2444 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2445 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2446
2447 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2448 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2449 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2450 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2451 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2452
2453 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2454 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2455 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2456 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2457
2458 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2459 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.

2469 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2470 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.

2475 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2476
2477 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
2478
2479 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2480
2481 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2482 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2483 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2484 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2485 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2486 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2487 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2488 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2489 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2490 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2491 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2492 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2494 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
2495 (CVE-2015-3193)
2496 [Andy Polyakov]
2497
2498 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2499
2500 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2501 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2502 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2503 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2504 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2505 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2506 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2507 authentication.
2508
2509 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
2510 (CVE-2015-3194)
2511 [Stephen Henson]
2512
2513 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
2514
2515 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2516 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2517 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2518 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
2519
2520 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
2521 libFuzzer.
2522 (CVE-2015-3195)
2523 [Stephen Henson]
2524
2525 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
2526 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
2527 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
2528 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
2529 [Emilia Käsper]
2530
2531 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
2532 return an error
2533 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
2534
2535 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
2536
2537 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2538
2539 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2540 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2541 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2542 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2543 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2544 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
2545
2546 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
2547 (Google/BoringSSL).
2548 [Matt Caswell]
2549
2550 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
2551
2552 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
2553 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
2554 restored.
2555 [Matt Caswell]
2556
2557 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
2558
2559 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
2560
2561 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2562 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2563 field.
2564
2565 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2566 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2567 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2568 client authentication enabled.
2569
2570 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
2571 (CVE-2015-1788)
2572 [Andy Polyakov]
2573
2574 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2575
2576 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2577 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2578 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2579 time string.
2580
2581 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2582 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2583 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2584 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2585 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2586 callbacks.
2587
2588 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
2589 independently by Hanno Böck.
2590 (CVE-2015-1789)
2591 [Emilia Käsper]
2592
2593 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
2594
2595 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2596 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2597 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2598
2599 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2600 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
2601 servers are not affected.
2602
2603 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2604 (CVE-2015-1790)
2605 [Emilia Käsper]
2606
2607 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
2608
2609 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
2610 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
2611 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
2612 the CMS code.
2613 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
2614 (CVE-2015-1792)
2615 [Stephen Henson]
2616
2617 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
2618
2619 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
2620 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
2621 a double free of the ticket data.
2622 (CVE-2015-1791)
2623 [Matt Caswell]
2624
2625 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
2626 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
2627 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
2628 [Emilia Kasper]
2629
2630 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
2631
2632 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
2633
2634 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
2635 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
2636 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
2637
2638 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
2639 University.
2640 (CVE-2015-0291)
2641 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2642
2643 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2644
2645 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2646 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2647 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2648 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2649 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2650 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2651 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2652 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2653
2654 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2655 (CVE-2015-0290)
2656 [Matt Caswell]
2657
2658 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2659
2660 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2661 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2662 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2663 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2664 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2665 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2666 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2667 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2668 server.
2669
2670 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
2671 (CVE-2015-0207)
2672 [Matt Caswell]
2673
2674 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2675
2676 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2677 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2678 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2679 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2680 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2681 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2682 (CVE-2015-0286)
2683 [Stephen Henson]
2684
2685 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2686
2687 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2688 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2689 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2690 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2691 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2692 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2693 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2694
2695 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
2696 (CVE-2015-0208)
2697 [Stephen Henson]
2698
2699 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2700
2701 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2702 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2703 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2704
2705 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2706 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2707 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
2708 not affected.
2709 (CVE-2015-0287)
2710 [Stephen Henson]
2711
2712 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
2713
2714 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
2715 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
2716 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2717
2718 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
2719 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
2720 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
2721
2722 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
2723 (CVE-2015-0289)
2724 [Emilia Käsper]
2725
2726 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
2727
2728 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
2729 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
2730 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
2731
2732 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
2733 (OpenSSL development team).
2734 (CVE-2015-0293)
2735 [Emilia Käsper]
2736
2737 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
2738
2739 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
2740 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
2741 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
2742 (CVE-2015-1787)
2743 [Matt Caswell]
2744
2745 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2746
2747 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2748 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2749 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2750 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2751 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2752 SSL_client_methodv23)
2753 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2754 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2755
2756 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2757 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2758 output may be predictable.
2759
2760 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2761 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2762
2763 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
2764 (CVE-2015-0285)
2765 [Matt Caswell]
2766
2767 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2768
2769 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2770 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2771 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2772 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2773 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2774 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2775
2776 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
2777 commit 517073cd4b.
2778 (CVE-2015-0209)
2779 [Matt Caswell]
2780
2781 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
2782
2783 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
2784 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
2785
2786 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
2787 (CVE-2015-0288)
2788 [Stephen Henson]
2789
2790 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
2791 [Kurt Roeckx]
2792
2793 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
2794
2795 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2796 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2797 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2798 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2799 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2800 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
2801 [Andy Polyakov]
2802
2803 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
2804 (other platforms pending).
2805 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
2806
2807 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
2808 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
2809 [Rob Stradling]
2810
2811 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2812 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2813 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2814 [Bodo Moeller]
2815
2816 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2817 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2818 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2819 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2820 [Andy Polyakov]
2821
2822 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2823 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2824
2825 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2826 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
2827 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
2828 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
2829 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
2830
2831 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
2832 [Andy Polyakov]
2833
2834 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2835 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
2836 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
2837 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
2838
2839 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
2840 RSAZ.
2841 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
2842
2843 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
2844 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
2845 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2846 for TLS encrypt.
2847
2848 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2849 [Andy Polyakov]
2850
2851 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2852 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2853 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2854 [Steve Henson]
2855
2856 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2857 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2858 [Steve Henson]
2859
2860 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2861 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2862 [Steve Henson]
2863
2864 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2865 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2866 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2867 algorithms and include tests cases.
2868 [Steve Henson]
2869
2870 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
2871 structure.
2872 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
2873
2874 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2875 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2876 [Steve Henson]
2877
2878 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2879 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2880 summary of the connection parameters.
2881 [Steve Henson]
2882
2883 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2884 of connection parameters.
2885 [Steve Henson]
2886
2887 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2888 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2889
2890 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2891 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2892 [Steve Henson]
2893
2894 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2895 [Steve Henson]
2896
2897 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2898 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2899 [Steve Henson]
2900
2901 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2902 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2903 [Steve Henson]
2904
2905 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2906 certificates.
2907 [Steve Henson]
2908
2909 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2910 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2911 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2912 [Steve Henson]
2913
2914 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2915 [Steve Henson]
2916
2917 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2918 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2919 [Steve Henson]
2920
2921 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2922 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
2923 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
2924 tracing.
2925 [Steve Henson]
2926
2927 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
2928 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
2929 [Steve Henson]
2930
2931 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
2932 OID NID.
2933 [Steve Henson]
2934
2935 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
2936 client to OpenSSL.
2937 [Steve Henson]
2938
2939 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
2940 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
2941 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
2942 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
2943 [Steve Henson]
2944
2945 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
2946 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
2949 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
2950 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
2951 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
2952 comparison.
2953 [Steve Henson]
2954
2955 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
2956 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
2957 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
2958 use the certificate.
2959 [Steve Henson]
2960
2961 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
2962 [Steve Henson]
2963
2964 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
2965 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
2966 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
2967 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
2968 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
2969 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
2970 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
2971
2972 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
2973 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2974
2975 [Steve Henson]
2976
2977 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2978 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2979 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2980 [Steve Henson]
2981
2982 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2983 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2984 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2985 supported signature algorithms.
2986 [Steve Henson]
2987
2988 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2989 [Steve Henson]
2990
2991 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2992 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
2993 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
2994 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
2995 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
2996 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
2997 certificate and specify the whole chain.
2998 [Steve Henson]
2999
3000 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
3001 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
3002 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
3003 to have similar checks in it.
3004
3005 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
3006 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
3007 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
3008 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
3009 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
3010 [Steve Henson]
3011
3012 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
3013 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
3014 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
3015 shared signature algorithms.
3016 [Steve Henson]
3017
3018 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
3019 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
3020 to support them.
3021 [Steve Henson]
3022
3023 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
3024 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
3025 it couldn't be removed.
3026 [Steve Henson]
3027
3028 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
3029 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
3030 [Steve Henson]
3031
3032 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
3033 functions. Add manual page.
3034 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
3035
3036 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
3037 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
3038 a certificate.
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Fix OCSP checking.
3042 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
3043
3044 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
3045 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
3046 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
3047 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
3048 utility) or reject.
3049 [Steve Henson]
3050
3051 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
3052 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
3053 [Steve Henson]
3054
3055 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
3056 platform support for Linux and Android.
3057 [Andy Polyakov]
3058
3059 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
3060 [Andy Polyakov]
3061
3062 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
3063 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
3064 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
3065 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
3066 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
3067 [Steve Henson]
3068
3069 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
3070 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
3071 the new parameter format automatically.
3072 [Steve Henson]
3073
3074 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
3075 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
3076 [Steve Henson]
3077
3078 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
3079 [Steve Henson]
3080
3081 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
3082 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
3083 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
3084 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
3085 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
3086 [Steve Henson]
3087
3088 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
3089 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
3090 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
3091 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
3092 to set list of supported curves.
3093 [Steve Henson]
3094
3095 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
3096 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
3097 to print out received values.
3098 [Steve Henson]
3099
3100 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
3101 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
3102 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
3103 [Steve Henson]
3104
3105 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
3106 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
3107 [Steve Henson]
3108
3109 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
3110 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
3111 [Steve Henson]
3112
3113 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
3114 certificates.
3115 [Steve Henson]
3116
3117 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
3118 the certificate.
3119 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
3120 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
3121 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
3122
3123 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
3124
3125 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
3126 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
3127
3128 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
3129
3130 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
3131 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
3132 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
3133 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
3134 (CVE-2014-3571)
3135 [Steve Henson]
3136
3137 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
3138 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
3139 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
3140 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
3141 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
3142 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
3143 (CVE-2015-0206)
3144 [Matt Caswell]
3145
3146 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
3147 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
3148 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
3149 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
3150 (CVE-2014-3569)
3151 [Kurt Roeckx]
3152
3153 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
3154 ECDH ciphersuites.
3155
3156 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
3157 reporting this issue.
3158 (CVE-2014-3572)
3159 [Steve Henson]
3160
3161 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
3162 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
3163 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
3164 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
3165 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
3166 INRIA or reporting this issue.
3167 (CVE-2015-0204)
3168 [Steve Henson]
3169
3170 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
3171 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
3172 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
3173 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
3174 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
3175 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
3176 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
3177 this issue.
3178 (CVE-2015-0205)
3179 [Steve Henson]
3180
3181 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
3182 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
3183
3184 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
3185 and can vary with the CTX.
3186 [Adam Langley]
3187
3188 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
3189
3190 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
3191 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
3192 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
3193 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
3194 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
3195
3196 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
3197
3198 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
3199 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
3200
3201 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
3202
3203 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
3204 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
3205 errors for some broken certificates.
3206
3207 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
3208
3209 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
3210
3211 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
3212 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
3213
3214 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
3215 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
3216 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
3217 (negative or with leading zeroes).
3218
3219 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
3220 of the OpenSSL core team.
3221
3222 (CVE-2014-8275)
3223 [Steve Henson]
3224
3225 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
3226 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
3227 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
3228 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
3229 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
3230 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
3231 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
3232 the OpenSSL core team.
3233 (CVE-2014-3570)
3234 [Andy Polyakov]
3235
3236 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
3237 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
3238 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
3239 sanity and breaks all known clients.
3240 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
3241
3242 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
3243 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
3244 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
3245 [Emilia Käsper]
3246
3247 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
3248 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
3249 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3250 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
3251 announced in the initial ServerHello.
3252
3253 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
3254 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
3255 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
3256 [Emilia Käsper]
3257
3258 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
3259
3260 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
3261
3262 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
3263 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
3264 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3265 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3266 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3267 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3268 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3269
3270 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3271 (CVE-2014-3513)
3272 [OpenSSL team]
3273
3274 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3275
3276 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3277 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3278 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3279 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3280 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3281 attack.
3282 (CVE-2014-3567)
3283 [Steve Henson]
3284
3285 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3286
3287 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3288 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3289 configured to send them.
3290 (CVE-2014-3568)
3291 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3292
3293 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3294 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3295 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3296 (CVE-2014-3566)
3297 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3298
3299 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3300
3301 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3302 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3303 DigestInfo structures.
3304
3305 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
3306
3307 [Steve Henson]
3308
3309 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3310
3311 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3312 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3313 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3314
3315 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3316 Group for discovering this issue.
3317 (CVE-2014-3512)
3318 [Steve Henson]
3319
3320 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3321 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3322 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3323 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3324 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3325
3326 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3327 researching this issue.
3328 (CVE-2014-3511)
3329 [David Benjamin]
3330
3331 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3332 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3333 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3334 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3335
3336 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3337 issue.
3338 (CVE-2014-3510)
3339 [Emilia Käsper]
3340
3341 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3342 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3343 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3344 (CVE-2014-3507)
3345 [Adam Langley]
3346
3347 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3348 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3349 Denial of Service attack.
3350 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3351 (CVE-2014-3506)
3352 [Adam Langley]
3353
3354 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3355 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3356 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3357 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3358 this issue.
3359 (CVE-2014-3505)
3360 [Adam Langley]
3361
3362 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3363 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3364 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3365
3366 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3367 issue.
3368 (CVE-2014-3509)
3369 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3370
3371 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3372 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3373 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3374 Denial of Service attack.
3375
3376 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3377 discovering and researching this issue.
3378 (CVE-2014-5139)
3379 [Steve Henson]
3380
3381 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3382 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3383 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3384 output to the attacker.
3385
3386 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3387 (CVE-2014-3508)
3388 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3389
3390 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3391 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3392 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3393 [Bodo Moeller]
3394
3395 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3396
3397 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3398 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3399 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3400
3401 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3402 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3403 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3404
3405 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3406 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3407 in a DoS attack.
3408
3409 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3410 (CVE-2014-0221)
3411 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3412
3413 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3414 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3415 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3416 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3417
3418 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3419 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3420
3421 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3422 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3423
3424 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3425 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3426 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3427
3428 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3429 compilation flags.
3430 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3431
3432 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3433 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3434 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3435
3436 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3437 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3438
3439 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3440
3441 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3442 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3443 server.
3444
3445 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3446 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3447 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3448 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3449
3450 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3451 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3452 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3453 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3454
3455 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3456 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3457 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3458
3459 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3460
3461 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3462 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3463 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3464 is at least 512 bytes long.
3465
3466 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3467
3468 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3469
3470 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3471 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3472 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3473 (CVE-2013-4353)
3474
3475 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3476 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3477 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3478 [Steve Henson]
3479
3480 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3481 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3482 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3483 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3484 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3485 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3486 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3487
3488 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3489
3490 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3491 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3492 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3493
3494 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3495
3496 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3497
3498 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3499 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3500 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3501
3502 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3503 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3504 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
3505 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
3506 (CVE-2013-0169)
3507 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3508
3509 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3510 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3511 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3512 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
3513 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
3514 (CVE-2012-2686)
3515 [Adam Langley]
3516
3517 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3518 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3519 [Steve Henson]
3520
3521 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3522 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3523
3524 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3525 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3526 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3527 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
3528 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
3529
3530 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3531 [Steve Henson]
3532
3533 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3534 if renegotiating.
3535 [Steve Henson]
3536
3537 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3538
3539 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3540 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3541
3542 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3543 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3544 (CVE-2012-2333)
3545 [Steve Henson]
3546
3547 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3548 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3549 [Steve Henson]
3550
3551 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3552 approved.
3553 [Steve Henson]
3554
3555 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3556
3557 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3558 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3559 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3560 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3561 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3562 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3563 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3564 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3565 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3566 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3567 [Steve Henson]
3568
3569 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3570 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3571 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3572 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3573 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3574 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3575 client side.
3576 [Andy Polyakov]
3577
3578 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3579
3580 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3581 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3582 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3583
3584 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3585 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3586 (CVE-2012-2110)
3587 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3588
3589 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3590 [Adam Langley]
3591
3592 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3593 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3594
3595 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3596 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3597 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3598 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3599 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3600 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3601 Most broken servers should now work.
3602 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3603 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3604 [Steve Henson]
3605
3606 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3607 [Andy Polyakov]
3608
3609 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3610
3611 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3612 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3613 [Steve Henson]
3614
3615 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3616 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3617 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3618 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3619 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3620 [Steve Henson]
3621
3622 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3623 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3624 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3625 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3626 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3627 [Steve Henson]
3628
3629 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3630 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3631
3632 *) Add support for SCTP.
3633 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3634
3635 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3636 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3637
3638 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3639
3640 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3641 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3642 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3643 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3644 - s390x: z196 support;
3645 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3646
3647 [Andy Polyakov]
3648
3649 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3650 (removal of unnecessary code)
3651 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3652
3653 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3654 [Eric Rescorla]
3655
3656 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3657 [Eric Rescorla]
3658
3659 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3660 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3661 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3662 by Google.
3663 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3664
3665 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3666 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3667 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3668 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3669 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3670
3671 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3672 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3673 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3674
3675 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3676 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3677 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3678
3679 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3680 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3681 implementations).
3682 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3683
3684 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
3685 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3686 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3687 [Steve Henson]
3688
3689 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3690 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3691 particular PSS.
3692 [Steve Henson]
3693
3694 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3695 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3696 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3697 [Steve Henson]
3698
3699 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3700 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3701 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3702 the appropriate parameters.
3703 [Steve Henson]
3704
3705 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3706 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3707 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3708 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3709 against a number of sample certificates.
3710 [Steve Henson]
3711
3712 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3713 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3714
3715 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3716 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3717
3718 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3719 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3720 parameters r, s.
3721 [Steve Henson]
3722
3723 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3724 RFC3211.
3725 [Steve Henson]
3726
3727 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3728 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3729 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3730 password based CMS).
3731 [Steve Henson]
3732
3733 *) Session-handling fixes:
3734 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3735 but also support Session Tickets.
3736 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3737 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3738 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3739 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3740 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3741 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3742
3743 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3744 [Bodo Moeller]
3745
3746 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3747
3748 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3749 [Andy Polyakov]
3750
3751 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3752 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3753 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3754 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3755 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3756 [Steve Henson]
3757
3758 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3759 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3760 [Steve Henson]
3761
3762 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3763 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3764 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3765 [Steve Henson]
3766
3767 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3768 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3769 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3770 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3771 [Steve Henson]
3772
3773 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3774 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3775 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3776 [Steve Henson]
3777
3778 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3779 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3780
3781 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3782 [Steve Henson]
3783
3784 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3785 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3786 [Steve Henson]
3787
3788 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3789 [Steve Henson]
3790
3791 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3792 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3793 [Steve Henson]
3794
3795 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3796 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3797 [Steve Henson]
3798
3799 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3800 [Steve Henson]
3801
3802 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3803 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3804 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3805 [Steve Henson]
3806
3807 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3808 [Steve Henson]
3809
3810 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3811 [Steve Henson]
3812
3813 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3814 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3815 [Steve Henson]
3816
3817 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3818 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3819 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3820 [Steve Henson]
3821
3822 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3823 [Steve Henson]
3824
3825 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3826 and enable MD5.
3827 [Steve Henson]
3828
3829 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3830 FIPS modules versions.
3831 [Steve Henson]
3832
3833 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3834 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3835 until after the certificate request message is received.
3836 [Steve Henson]
3837
3838 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3839 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3840 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3841 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3842 [Steve Henson]
3843
3844 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3845 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3846 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3847 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3848 [Steve Henson]
3849
3850 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3851 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3852 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3853 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3854 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3855 and version checking.
3856 [Steve Henson]
3857
3858 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3859 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3860 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3861 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3862 [Steve Henson]
3863
3864 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3865 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3866 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3867 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3868 Ben Laurie]
3869
3870 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3871 [Steve Henson]
3872
3873 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3874 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3875 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3876
3877 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3878 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3879 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3880 [Steve Henson]
3881
3882 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3883 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3884
3885 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3886 a few changes are required:
3887
3888 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3889 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3890 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3891 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3892 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3893 [Steve Henson]
3894
3895 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3896
3897 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3898 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3899 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3900 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3901 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3902 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3903 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3904 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3905 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3906 [Steve Henson]
3907
3908 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3909 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3910 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3911 [Steve Henson]
3912
3913 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3914
3915 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3916 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3917 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3918 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3919 [Antonio Martin]
3920
3921 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3922
3923 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
3924 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
3925 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
3926 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
3927 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
3928 paper describing this attack can be found at:
3929 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
3930 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3931 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3932 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
3933 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
3934 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
3935 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
3936
3937 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
3938 (CVE-2011-4576)
3939 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3940
3941 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
3942 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
3943 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
3944 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3945
3946 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
3947 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
3948
3949 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
3950 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
3951 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
3952 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3953
3954 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3955 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3956
3957 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
3958 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3959
3960 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
3961 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3962
3963 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
3964 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
3965 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3966
3967 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
3968 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
3969 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
3970
3971 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
3972 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
3973 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
3974 the last update always remained unused).
3975 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3976
3977 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3978 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3979
3980 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3981
3982 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3983 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3984 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3985
3986 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3987 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3988 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3989
3990 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3991 [Bodo Moeller]
3992
3993 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
3994 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
3995 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
3996 [Steve Henson]
3997
3998 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
3999 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
4000
4001 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
4002
4003 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
4004
4005 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
4006
4007 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
4008 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
4009
4010 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
4011 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
4012 ambiguous.
4013 [Steve Henson]
4014
4015 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
4016
4017 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
4018 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
4019 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
4020 [Steve Henson]
4021
4022 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
4023 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
4024 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
4025 [Ben Laurie]
4026
4027 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
4028
4029 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
4030 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
4031 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
4032 [Steve Henson]
4033
4034 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
4035 a DLL.
4036 [Steve Henson]
4037
4038 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
4039
4040 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
4041 (CVE-2010-1633)
4042 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
4043
4044 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
4045
4046 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
4047 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
4048 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
4055 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
4056 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
4057
4058 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
4059 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
4060 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
4061 [Steve Henson]
4062
4063 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
4064 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
4065 [Steve Henson]
4066
4067 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
4068 some responders need this.
4069 [Steve Henson]
4070
4071 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
4072 correctly.
4073 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4074
4075 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
4076 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
4077 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
4078 [Steve Henson]
4079
4080 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
4081 [Steve Henson]
4082
4083 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
4084 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
4085 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
4086 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
4087 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
4088 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
4089 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
4090 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
4091 [Steve Henson]
4092
4093 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
4094 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
4095 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
4096 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4097
4098 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
4099 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
4100
4101 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
4102 be used on C++.
4103 [Steve Henson]
4104
4105 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
4106 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
4107 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
4108 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
4109 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
4110 attempting to work them out.
4111 [Steve Henson]
4112
4113 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
4114 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
4115 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
4116 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
4117 [Steve Henson]
4118
4119 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
4120 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
4121 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
4122 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
4123 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
4124 [Steve Henson]
4125
4126 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
4127 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
4128 you can do:
4129
4130 openssl sha256 foo
4131
4132 as well as:
4133
4134 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
4135
4136 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
4137
4138 [Steve Henson]
4139
4140 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
4141 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4142
4143 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
4144 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
4145
4146 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
4147 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
4148 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
4149 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
4150 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
4151 [Steve Henson]
4152
4153 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
4154 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
4155 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
4156 [Steve Henson]
4157
4158 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
4159 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
4160 [Steve Henson]
4161
4162 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
4163 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
4164
4165 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
4166 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
4170 [Ben Laurie]
4171
4172 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
4173 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
4174 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
4175 CONF_VALUE.
4176 [Ben Laurie]
4177
4178 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
4179 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
4180 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
4181 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
4182 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
4183 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
4184 [Steve Henson]
4185
4186 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
4187 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
4188
4189 This work was sponsored by Google.
4190 [Steve Henson]
4191
4192 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
4193 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
4194 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
4195 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
4196 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
4197 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
4198 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
4199 default.
4200
4201 This work was sponsored by Google.
4202 [Steve Henson]
4203
4204 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
4205
4206 This work was sponsored by Google.
4207 [Steve Henson]
4208
4209 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
4210 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
4211 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
4212 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
4213
4214 This work was sponsored by Google.
4215 [Steve Henson]
4216
4217 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
4218 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
4219 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
4220 CRL functionality in future.
4221
4222 This work was sponsored by Google.
4223 [Steve Henson]
4224
4225 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
4226
4227 This work was sponsored by Google.
4228 [Steve Henson]
4229
4230 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
4231 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
4232
4233 This work was sponsored by Google.
4234 [Steve Henson]
4235
4236 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
4237 and URI types are currently supported.
4238
4239 This work was sponsored by Google.
4240 [Steve Henson]
4241
4242 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
4243 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
4244 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
4245 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
4246 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
4247 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
4248 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
4249 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
4250
4251 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
4252 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
4253 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
4254
4255 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
4256 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
4257 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
4258 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
4259
4260 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
4261 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
4262 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
4263 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
4264 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4265 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4266 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4267 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4268 of &errno.)
4269 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4270
4271 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4272 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4273 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4274
4275 This work was sponsored by Google.
4276 [Steve Henson]
4277
4278 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4279 [Ben Laurie]
4280
4281 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4282 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4283 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4284 [Ben Laurie]
4285
4286 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4287 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4288 [Nick Mathewson]
4289
4290 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4291 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4292 [Ben Laurie]
4293
4294 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4295 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4296 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4297 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4298 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4299 content types and variants.
4300 [Steve Henson]
4301
4302 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4303 [Steve Henson]
4304
4305 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4306 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4307 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4308 files from the associated perl scripts.
4309 [Steve Henson]
4310
4311 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4312 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4313 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4314
4315 *) s390x assembler pack.
4316 [Andy Polyakov]
4317
4318 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4319 "family."
4320 [Andy Polyakov]
4321
4322 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4323 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4324 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4325 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4326 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4327 to use. For example, specify an option
4328
4329 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4330
4331 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4332 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4333 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4334 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4335 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4336 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4337
4338 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4339 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4340 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4341 return non-zero for success.
4342
4343 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4344 by using
4345
4346 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4347 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4348
4349 where
4350
4351 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4352 void *arg;
4353
4354 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4355 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4356 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4357 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4358 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4359 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4360 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4361 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4362 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4363
4364 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4365 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4366 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4367 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4368 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4369 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4370
4371 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4372 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4373 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4374 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4375 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4376 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4377
4378 [Bodo Moeller]
4379
4380 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4381 MAC.
4382
4383 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4384
4385 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4386 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4387 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4388 supported.
4389
4390 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4391 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4392 SSL_SESSION.
4393
4394 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4395 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4396 with no application modification.
4397
4398 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4399 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4400
4401 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4402 or server extensions to be examined.
4403
4404 This work was sponsored by Google.
4405 [Steve Henson]
4406
4407 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4408 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4409 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4410
4411 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4412 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4413 ciphersuite support.
4414 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4415
4416 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4417 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4418 to output in BER and PEM format.
4419 [Steve Henson]
4420
4421 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4422 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4423 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4424 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4425 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4426 [Steve Henson]
4427
4428 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4429 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4430 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4431 utility.
4432 [Steve Henson]
4433
4434 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4435 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4436 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4437 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4438 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4439 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4440 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4441 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4442 enabled again.
4443
4444 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4445 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4446 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4447 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4448
4449 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4450 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4451 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4452 the default order.
4453 [Bodo Moeller]
4454
4455 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4456 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4457 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4458 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4459 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4460 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4461 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4462 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4463 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4464
4465 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4466 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4467 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4468 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4469 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4470 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4471 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4472 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4473 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4474 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4475 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4476 kinds of kludges.
4477
4478 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4479 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4480 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4481
4482 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4483 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4484 "CAMELLIA256".
4485 [Bodo Moeller]
4486
4487 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4488 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4489 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4490 [Nils Larsch]
4491
4492 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4493 it yet and it is largely untested.
4494 [Steve Henson]
4495
4496 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4497 [Nils Larsch]
4498
4499 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4500 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4501 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4502 [Steve Henson]
4503
4504 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4505 [Andy Polyakov]
4506
4507 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4508 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4509 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4510 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4511 [Steve Henson]
4512
4513 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4514 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4515 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4516 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4517 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4518 [Steve Henson]
4519
4520 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4521 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4522 [Cryptocom]
4523
4524 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4525 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4526 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4527 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4528 [Steve Henson]
4529
4530 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4531 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4532 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4533 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4534 [Steve Henson]
4535
4536 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4537 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4538 [Steve Henson]
4539
4540 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4541 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4542 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4543 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4544 [Steve Henson]
4545
4546 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4547 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4548 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4549 [Steve Henson]
4550
4551 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4552 utility.
4553 [Steve Henson]
4554
4555 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4556 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4557 [Steve Henson]
4558
4559 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4560 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4561 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4562 if necessary.
4563 [Steve Henson]
4564
4565 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4566 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4567 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4568 [Steve Henson]
4569
4570 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4571 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4572 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4573 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
4576 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4577 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4578 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4579 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4580 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4581 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4582 [Douglas Stebila]
4583
4584 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4585 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4586 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4587 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4588 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4589
4590 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4591 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4592 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4593 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4594 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4595 protocol).
4596
4597 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4598 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4599 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4600 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4601
4602 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4603 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4604 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4605 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4606 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4607
4608 aECDH - ECDH cert
4609 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4610 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4611
4612 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4613 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4614
4615 [Bodo Moeller]
4616
4617 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4618 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4619 [Steve Henson]
4620
4621 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4622 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4623 [Steve Henson]
4624
4625 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4626 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4627 functional reference processing.
4628 [Steve Henson]
4629
4630 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4631 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4632 process.
4633 [Steve Henson]
4634
4635 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4636 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4637 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4638 [Steve Henson]
4639
4640 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4641 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4642 application to support multiple signers.
4643 [Steve Henson]
4644
4645 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4646 digest MAC.
4647 [Steve Henson]
4648
4649 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4650 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4651 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4652 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4653 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4654 [Steve Henson]
4655
4656 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4657 new API.
4658 [Steve Henson]
4659
4660 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4661 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4662 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4663 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4664 a no op.
4665 [Steve Henson]
4666
4667 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4668 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4669 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4670 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4671 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4672 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4673 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4674 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4675 [Steve Henson]
4676
4677 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4678 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4679 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4680 between digests and public key types.
4681 [Steve Henson]
4682
4683 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4684 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4685 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4686 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4687 [Steve Henson]
4688
4689 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4690 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4691 key ASN1 method.
4692 [Steve Henson]
4693
4694 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4695 [Steve Henson]
4696
4697 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4698 pkeyutl.
4699 [Steve Henson]
4700
4701 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4702 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4703 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4704 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4705 pkey, genpkey.
4706 [Steve Henson]
4707
4708 *) BeOS support.
4709 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4710
4711 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4712 manual pages.
4713 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4714
4715 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4716 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4717 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4718 functionality for RSA.
4719 [Steve Henson]
4720
4721 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4722 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4723 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4724 [Steve Henson]
4725
4726 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4727 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4728 [Steve Henson]
4729
4730 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4731 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4732 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4733 [Steve Henson]
4734
4735 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4736 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4737 [Douglas Stebila]
4738
4739 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4740 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4741 [Steve Henson]
4742
4743 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4744 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4745 type.
4746 [Steve Henson]
4747
4748 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4749 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4750 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4751 structure.
4752 [Steve Henson]
4753
4754 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4755 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4756 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4757 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4758 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4759 of public and private key structures.
4760 [Steve Henson]
4761
4762 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4763 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4764 [Douglas Stebila]
4765
4766 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4767 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4768 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4769
4770 New ciphersuites:
4771 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4772 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4773
4774 New functions:
4775 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4776 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4777 SSL_get_psk_identity
4778 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4779
4780 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4781
4782 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4783 and response verification functionality.
4784 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4785
4786 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4787 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4788 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4789 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4790 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4791 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4792 server_name extension.
4793
4794 New functions (subject to change):
4795
4796 SSL_get_servername()
4797 SSL_get_servername_type()
4798 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4799
4800 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4801
4802 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4803 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4804 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4805 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4806 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4807
4808 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4809
4810 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4811 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4812 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4813 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4814 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4815 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4816 option.
4817
4818 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4819
4820 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4821 [Andy Polyakov]
4822
4823 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4824 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4825 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4826 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4827 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4828 [Andy Polyakov]
4829
4830 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4831 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4832 macro.
4833 [Bodo Moeller]
4834
4835 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4836 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4837 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4838 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4839 [Andy Polyakov]
4840
4841 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4842 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4843 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4844 using the maximum available value.
4845 [Steve Henson]
4846
4847 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4848 in addition to the text details.
4849 [Bodo Moeller]
4850
4851 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4852 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4853 handle several customised structures at all.
4854 [Steve Henson]
4855
4856 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4857 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4858 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4859 [Steve Henson]
4860
4861 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4862 [Steve Henson]
4863
4864 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4865 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4866 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4867 [Steve Henson]
4868
4869 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4870 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4871 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4872 [Nils Larsch]
4873
4874 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4875 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4876 all fields.
4877 [Steve Henson]
4878
4879 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4880 [Steve Henson]
4881
4882 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4883 [NTT]
4884
4885 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4886
4887 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4888 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4889 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4890 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4891 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4892 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4893 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4894 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4895
4896 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4897 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4898 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4899
4900 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4901
4902 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4903 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4904
4905 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4906 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4907 [Bodo Moeller]
4908
4909 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4910 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4911 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4912 [Steve Henson]
4913
4914 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4915 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4916 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4917 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4918 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4919 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4920 [Steve Henson]
4921
4922 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
4923 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
4924 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
4925 [Steve Henson]
4926
4927 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
4928 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
4929 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
4930 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
4931 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
4932 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
4933 CVE-2009-4355.
4934 [Steve Henson]
4935
4936 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
4937 change when encrypting or decrypting.
4938 [Bodo Moeller]
4939
4940 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
4941 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
4942 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
4943 [Steve Henson]
4944
4945 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
4946 [Steve Henson]
4947
4948 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
4949 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
4950 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
4951 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
4952 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
4953 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
4954 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
4955 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
4956 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
4957 [Steve Henson]
4958
4959 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
4960 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
4961 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
4962 [Steve Henson]
4963
4964 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
4965 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
4966 [Steve Henson]
4967
4968 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
4969 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
4970 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
4971 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
4972 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
4973 know what you are doing.
4974 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
4975
4976 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4977 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4978 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4979 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4980 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4981 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4982 the handshake.
4983 [Steve Henson]
4984
4985 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4986 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4987 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4988 correctly.
4989 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4990
4991 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4992 warnings in other configurations.
4993 [Steve Henson]
4994
4995 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
4996 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
4997 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
4998 systems need.
4999 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
5000
5001 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
5002 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
5003 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
5004
5005 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
5006 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
5007 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
5008 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
5009 [Steve Henson]
5010
5011 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
5012 and restored.
5013 [Steve Henson]
5014
5015 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
5016 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
5017 clash.
5018 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
5019
5020 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
5021 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
5022 other than a simple chain.
5023 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
5024
5025 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
5026 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
5027 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
5028 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
5029 [Steve Henson]
5030
5031 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
5032 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
5033 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
5034 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
5035 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
5036 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
5037 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
5038 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
5039 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5040
5041 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
5042 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
5043 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
5044 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
5045 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
5046 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
5047 (CVE-2009-1377)
5048 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
5049
5050 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
5051 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
5052 [Daniel Mentz]
5053
5054 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
5055 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
5056
5057 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
5058 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
5059
5060 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
5061
5062 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
5063 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
5064 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
5065 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
5066 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
5067 you're doing.
5068 [Ben Laurie]
5069
5070 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
5071
5072 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
5073 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
5074 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
5075 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
5076
5077 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
5078 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
5079 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
5080 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5081
5082 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
5083 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
5084 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
5085 [Steve Henson]
5086
5087 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
5088 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
5089 level.
5090 [Steve Henson]
5091
5092 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
5093 to handle some structures.
5094 [Steve Henson]
5095
5096 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
5097 for a '\n'
5098 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
5099
5100 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
5101 [Matthieu Herrb]
5102
5103 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
5104 [Steve Henson]
5105
5106 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
5107 [Steve Henson]
5108
5109 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
5110 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
5111 chosen compiler.
5112 [Ben Laurie]
5113
5114 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
5115
5116 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
5117 (CVE-2008-5077).
5118 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
5119
5120 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
5121 [Ben Laurie]
5122
5123 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
5124 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
5125 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
5126 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
5127
5128 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
5129 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
5130
5131 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
5132 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
5133 [Bodo Moeller]
5134
5135 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
5136 s_client and s_server.
5137 [Ben Laurie]
5138
5139 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
5140 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
5141
5142 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
5143 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
5144
5145 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
5146 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
5147 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
5148 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
5149 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
5150 [Bodo Moeller]
5151
5152 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
5153
5154 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
5155 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
5156 [PR #1679]
5157
5158 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
5159 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
5160 [Nagendra Modadugu]
5161
5162 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
5163 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
5164 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
5165 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
5166
5167 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
5168 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
5169
5170 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
5171
5172 *) Various precautionary measures:
5173
5174 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
5175
5176 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
5177 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
5178 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
5179
5180 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
5181 outside the expected range.
5182
5183 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
5184 builds.
5185
5186 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
5187
5188 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
5189 the load fails. Useful for distros.
5190 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
5191
5192 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
5193 [Steve Henson]
5194
5195 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
5196 [Huang Ying]
5197
5198 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
5199
5200 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5201 [Steve Henson]
5202
5203 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
5204 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
5205 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
5206
5207 This work was sponsored by Logica.
5208 [Steve Henson]
5209
5210 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
5211 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
5212 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
5213 files.
5214 [Steve Henson]
5215
5216 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
5217
5218 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
5219 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
5220 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
5221 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
5222
5223 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
5224 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
5225 [Joe Orton]
5226
5227 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
5228
5229 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
5230 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
5231 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
5232
5233 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
5234
5235 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
5236 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
5237 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
5238 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
5239 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5240
5241 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
5242 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
5243 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
5244 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
5245 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
5246 invalid read after the end of 'db').
5247 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
5248
5249 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
5250
5251 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
5252 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
5253 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
5254 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
5255 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
5256
5257 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
5258 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
5259
5260 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
5261 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
5262 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
5263 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
5264 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5265
5266 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5267
5268 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5269 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5270 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5271 sets may exist with different names.
5272 [Steve Henson]
5273
5274 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5275 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5276 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5277 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5278 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5279 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5280 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5281 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5282 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5283 implementation.
5284 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5285
5286 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5287 implementation in the following ways:
5288
5289 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5290 hard coded.
5291
5292 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5293 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5294 ignored for embedded content.
5295
5296 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5297 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5298 [Steve Henson]
5299
5300 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5301 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5302 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5303 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5304
5305 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5306 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5307 [Steve Henson]
5308
5309 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5310 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5311 [Steve Henson]
5312
5313 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5314 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5315 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5316 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5317 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5318 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5319 data.
5320 [Steve Henson]
5321
5322 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5323 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5324 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5325
5326 *) Netware support:
5327
5328 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5329 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5330 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5331 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5332 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5333 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5334 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5335 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5336 platform
5337 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5338 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5339 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5340 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5341 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5342 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5343 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5344
5345 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5346 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5347 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5348 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5349 to s_client and s_server.
5350 [Steve Henson]
5351
5352 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5353
5354 *) Fix various bugs:
5355 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5356 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5357 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5358 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5359 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5360
5361 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5362
5363 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5364 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5365 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5366 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5367 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5368 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5369 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5370 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5371 [Andy Polyakov]
5372
5373 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5374 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5375 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5376 Steve Henson]
5377
5378 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5379 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5380 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5381 supported.
5382
5383 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5384 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5385 SSL_SESSION.
5386
5387 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5388 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5389 with no application modification.
5390
5391 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5392 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5393
5394 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5395 or server extensions to be examined.
5396
5397 This work was sponsored by Google.
5398 [Steve Henson]
5399
5400 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5401 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5402 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5403 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5404 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5405 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5406 server_name extension.
5407
5408 New functions (subject to change):
5409
5410 SSL_get_servername()
5411 SSL_get_servername_type()
5412 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5413
5414 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5415
5416 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5417 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5418 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5419 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5420 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5421
5422 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5423
5424 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5425 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5426 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5427 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5428 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5429 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5430 option.
5431
5432 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5433
5434 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5435 [Steve Henson]
5436
5437 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5438 [Andy Polyakov]
5439
5440 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5441 (which previously caused an internal error).
5442 [Bodo Moeller]
5443
5444 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5445 [Ben Laurie]
5446
5447 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5448 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5449
5450 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5451 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5452 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5453
5454 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5455 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5456 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5457 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5458
5459 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5460 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5461 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5462 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5463
5464 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5465 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5466 information. For detailed background information, see
5467 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5468 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5469 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5470 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5471 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5472 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5473 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5474 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5475 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5476 remove a conditional branch.
5477
5478 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5479 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5480 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5481 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5482 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5483 remains as a deprecated alias.
5484
5485 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5486 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5487 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5488 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5489
5490 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5491 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5492 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5493 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5494 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5495 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5496 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5497 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5498
5499 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5500
5501 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5502 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5503 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5504 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5505 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5506 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5507 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5508 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5509 in a different context.
5510 [Bodo Moeller]
5511
5512 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5513 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5514 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5515 [Bodo Moeller]
5516
5517 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5518 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5519 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5520
5521 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5522
5523 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5524 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5525 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5526 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5527 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5528 [Victor Duchovni]
5529
5530 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5531 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5532 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5533 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5534 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5535 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5536 [Bodo Moeller]
5537
5538 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5539 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5540 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5541 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5542 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5543 [Bodo Moeller]
5544
5545 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5546 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5547
5548 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5549 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5550 Improve header file function name parsing.
5551 [Steve Henson]
5552
5553 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5554 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5555 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5556
5557 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5558
5559 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5560 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5561 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5562
5563 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5564 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5565
5566 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5567 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5568
5569 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5570 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5571 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5572
5573 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5574 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5575 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5576 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5577 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5578 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5579 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5580 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5581 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5582
5583 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5584 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5585 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5586 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5587 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5588
5589 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5590 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5591 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5592 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5593 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5594 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5595 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5596 multiple values to extend the available space.
5597
5598 [Bodo Moeller]
5599
5600 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5601
5602 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5603 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5604
5605 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5606 [Ben Laurie]
5607
5608 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5609 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5610 undesirable limitations.
5611 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5612
5613 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5614 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5615 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5616 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5617 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5618 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5619 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5620 [Bodo Moeller]
5621
5622 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5623
5624 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5625 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5626 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5627
5628 The latter two were purportedly from
5629 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5630 appear there.
5631
5632 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5633 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5634 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5635 [Bodo Moeller]
5636
5637 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5638 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5639 [Bodo Moeller]
5640
5641 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5642 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5643 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5644 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5645
5646 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5647 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5648 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5649 [NTT]
5650
5651 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5652 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5653 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5654 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5655 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5656 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5657 [Steve Henson]
5658
5659 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5660
5661 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5662 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5663 [Steve Henson]
5664
5665 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5666 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5667
5668 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5669 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5670 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5671 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5672 [Douglas Stebila]
5673
5674 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5675 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5676 [Steve Henson]
5677
5678 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5679 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5680 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5681 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5682 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5683 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5684 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5685 can't be loaded.
5686 [Steve Henson]
5687
5688 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5689 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5690 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5691 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5692 [Steve Henson]
5693
5694 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5695 under VC++ build system.
5696 [Steve Henson]
5697
5698 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5699 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5700 [Richard Levitte]
5701
5702 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5703
5704 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5705 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5706 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5707 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5708 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5709
5710 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5711 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5712 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5713
5714 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5715 [Steve Henson]
5716
5717 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5718 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5719 [Nils Larsch]
5720
5721 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5722 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5723
5724 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5725 [Nick Mathewson]
5726
5727 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5728 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5729
5730 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5731 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5732 [Steve Henson]
5733
5734 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5735 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5736 smime utility.
5737 [Steve Henson]
5738
5739 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5740
5741 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5742 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5743
5744 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5745 [Richard Levitte]
5746
5747 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5748 key into the same file any more.
5749 [Richard Levitte]
5750
5751 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5752 [Andy Polyakov]
5753
5754 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5755 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5756
5757 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5758 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5759 [Richard Levitte]
5760
5761 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5762 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5763 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5764 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5765 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5766 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5767
5768 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5769 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5770 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5771 [Steve Henson]
5772
5773 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5774 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5775 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5776 - add new function for parameter creation
5777 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5778 BN_BLINDING parameters
5779 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5780 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5781 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5782 threads.
5783 [Nils Larsch]
5784
5785 *) Add support for DTLS.
5786 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5787
5788 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5789 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5790 [Walter Goulet]
5791
5792 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5793 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5794 [Nils Larsch]
5795
5796 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5797 the apps/openssl applications.
5798 [Nils Larsch]
5799
5800 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5801 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5802 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5803 [Ben Laurie]
5804
5805 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5806 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5807
5808 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5809 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5810
5811 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5812 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5813 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5814 avoid this algorithm.)
5815
5816 [Bodo Moeller]
5817
5818 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5819 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5820 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5821 [Richard Levitte]
5822
5823 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5824 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5825 [Andy Polyakov]
5826
5827 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5828 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5829 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5830 pod file:
5831
5832 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5833
5834 The blank line is mandatory.
5835
5836 [Steve Henson]
5837
5838 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5839 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5840 sources.
5841 [Steve Henson]
5842
5843 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5844 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5845
5846 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5847 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5848 to support policy checking and print out.
5849 [Steve Henson]
5850
5851 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5852 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5853 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5854 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5855
5856 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5857 [Geoff Thorpe]
5858
5859 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5860 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5861
5862 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5863 implementation contributed by IBM.
5864 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5865
5866 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5867 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5868 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5869 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5870
5871 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5872 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5873
5874 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5875 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5876 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5877 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5878 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5879 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5880 [Steve Henson]
5881
5882 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5883 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5884 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5885 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5886 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5887 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5888 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5889 [Geoff Thorpe]
5890
5891 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5892 [Steve Henson]
5893
5894 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5895 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5896 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5897 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5898 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5899 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5900 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5901 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5902 [Steve Henson]
5903
5904 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5905 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5906 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5907 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5908 [Steve Henson]
5909
5910 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5911 syntax:
5912
5913 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5914 [Steve Henson]
5915
5916 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5917 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5918 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5919 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5920 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5921 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5922 BN_CTX's "bundling".
5923 [Geoff Thorpe]
5924
5925 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
5926 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
5927 [Geoff Thorpe]
5928
5929 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
5930 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
5931 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
5932 [Steve Henson]
5933
5934 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
5935 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
5936 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
5937 below).
5938 [Geoff Thorpe]
5939
5940 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
5941 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
5942 [Richard Levitte]
5943
5944 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
5945 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
5946 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
5947 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
5948 [Geoff Thorpe]
5949
5950 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
5951 initialised value as BN_new().
5952 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
5953
5954 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
5955 [Steve Henson]
5956
5957 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
5958 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
5959 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
5960 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
5961 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
5962 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
5963 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
5964 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
5965 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
5966 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
5967 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
5968 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
5969 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
5970 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
5971 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
5972
5973 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
5974 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
5975 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
5976 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5977 [Geoff Thorpe]
5978
5979 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5980 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5981 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5982 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5983 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5984 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5985 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5986 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5987 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5988 [Geoff Thorpe]
5989
5990 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5991 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5992 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
5993 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
5994 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
5995 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
5996 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
5997 [Geoff Thorpe]
5998
5999 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
6000 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
6001 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
6002 these have been updated also.
6003 [Geoff Thorpe]
6004
6005 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
6006 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
6007 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
6008 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
6009 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
6010 functions.
6011 [Steve Henson]
6012
6013 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
6014 structure of type "other".
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
6018 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
6019 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
6020 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
6021 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
6022 situation in the script.
6023 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6024
6025 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
6026 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
6027 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
6028 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
6029 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
6030 used as premaster secret.
6031 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6032
6033 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
6034 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
6035 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6036
6037 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
6038 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
6039
6040 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
6041 control of the error stack.
6042 [Richard Levitte]
6043
6044 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
6045 [Richard Levitte]
6046
6047 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
6048 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
6049 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
6050 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
6051 [Richard Levitte]
6052
6053 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
6054 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
6055 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
6056 [Richard Levitte]
6057
6058 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
6059 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
6060 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
6061 a memory area.
6062 [Richard Levitte]
6063
6064 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
6065 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
6066 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
6067 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
6068 [Richard Levitte]
6069
6070 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
6071 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
6072 the following flags are defined:
6073
6074 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
6075 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6076 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
6077 number.
6078
6079 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
6080 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
6081 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
6082 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
6083 returns zero.
6084 [Richard Levitte]
6085
6086 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
6087 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
6088 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
6089 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
6090 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
6091 [Richard Levitte]
6092
6093 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
6094 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
6095 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
6096 [Richard Levitte]
6097
6098 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6099 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6100 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6101 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6102 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6103 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6104 [Richard Levitte]
6105
6106 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
6107 req and dirName.
6108 [Steve Henson]
6109
6110 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
6111 [Steve Henson]
6112
6113 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
6114 [Steve Henson]
6115
6116 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
6117 [Steve Henson]
6118
6119 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
6120 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
6121 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
6122 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
6123 default implementation more easily.
6124 [Geoff Thorpe]
6125
6126 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
6127 in config files.
6128 [Steve Henson]
6129
6130 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
6131 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
6132 [Richard Levitte]
6133
6134 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
6135 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
6136 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
6137 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
6138
6139 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
6140 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
6141 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
6142 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
6143 [Steve Henson]
6144
6145 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
6146 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
6147 to do it.
6148 [Richard Levitte]
6149
6150 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
6151 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
6152 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
6153 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
6154 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
6155 scalar * generator).
6156 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
6157
6158 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
6159 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
6160 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
6161 correctly.
6162 [Steve Henson]
6163
6164 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
6165 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
6166 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
6167 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
6168 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
6169 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
6170 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
6171 linker additions, eg;
6172 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
6173 [Geoff Thorpe]
6174
6175 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
6176 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
6177 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
6178 [Geoff Thorpe]
6179
6180 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6181 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6182 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
6183 via PR#459)
6184 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6185
6186 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
6187 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
6188 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
6189 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
6190 [Geoff Thorpe]
6191
6192 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
6193 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
6194 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
6195 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
6196 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
6197 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
6198 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
6199 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
6200 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
6201 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
6202
6203 Example for using the new callback interface:
6204
6205 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
6206 void *my_arg = ...;
6207 BN_GENCB my_cb;
6208
6209 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
6210
6211 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
6212 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
6213 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
6214 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
6215 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
6216 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
6217 */
6218
6219 [Geoff Thorpe]
6220
6221 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
6222 available to TLS with the number defined in
6223 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
6224 [Richard Levitte]
6225
6226 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
6227 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
6228
6229 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
6230 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6231 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
6232 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
6233
6234 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
6235 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
6236
6237 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
6238 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
6239 well.
6240 [Richard Levitte]
6241
6242 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
6243 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
6244 [Richard Levitte]
6245
6246 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
6247 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
6248 and a macro that behave like
6249 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
6250
6251 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
6252 [Nils Larsch]
6253
6254 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
6255 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
6256 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
6257 if applicable.
6258 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6259
6260 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
6261 [Bodo Moeller]
6262
6263 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
6264 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6265 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6266 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6267 directory engines/.
6268 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6269 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6270 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6271 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6272 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6273 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6274 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6275 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6276
6277 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6278 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6279 [Richard Levitte]
6280
6281 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6282 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6283
6284 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6285 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6286 files while avoiding the low level API.
6287
6288 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6289 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6290 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6291 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6292
6293 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6294 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6295 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6296 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6297 instead of the low level API.
6298 [Steve Henson]
6299
6300 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6301 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6302 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6303 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6304 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6305 PKCS#7 code.
6306
6307 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6308 down to the template encoder.
6309 [Steve Henson]
6310
6311 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6312 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6313 [Bodo Moeller]
6314
6315 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6316 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6317 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6318 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6319
6320 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6321 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6322
6323 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6324 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6325
6326 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6327 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6328 [Bodo Moeller]
6329
6330 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6331 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6332 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6333 [Bodo Moeller]
6334
6335 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6336 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6337
6338 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6339 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6340
6341 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6342 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6343 New EC_METHOD:
6344
6345 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6346
6347 New API functions:
6348
6349 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6350 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6351 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6352 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6353 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6354 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6355
6356 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6357 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6358 enable it).
6359
6360 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6361 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6362 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6363 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6364 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6365 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6366 various internal method names.)
6367
6368 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6369 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6370
6371 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6372 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6373
6374 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6375 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6376
6377 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6378 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6379 methods are undefined.
6380
6381 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6382 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6383
6384 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6385 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6386 length of the modulus.
6387
6388 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6389 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6390
6391 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6392 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6393
6394 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6395 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6396
6397 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6398 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6399 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6400
6401 BN_GF2m_add
6402 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6403 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6404 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6405 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6406 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6407 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6408 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6409 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6410 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6411
6412 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6413 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6414
6415 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6416 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6417 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6418 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6419 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6420 where
6421 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6422 This applies to the following functions:
6423
6424 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6425 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6426 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6427 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6428 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6429 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6430 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6431 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6432 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6433 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6434
6435 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6436
6437 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6438 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6439
6440 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6441
6442 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6443 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6444 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6445 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6446 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6447
6448 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6449 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6450
6451 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6452 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6453 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6454
6455 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6456 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6457
6458 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6459 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6460 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6461 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6462 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6463
6464 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6465 functions
6466 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6467 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6468 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6469 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6470 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6471 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6472 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6473 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6474 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6475 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6476 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6477 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6478
6479 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6480 functions
6481 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6482 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6483 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6484 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6485 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6486
6487 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6488 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6489 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6490 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6491
6492 *) Add functions
6493 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6494 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6495 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6496 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6497 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6498 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6499 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6500
6501 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6502 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6503 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6504 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6505 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6506 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6507 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6508 adding different types of curves.
6509 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6510
6511 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6512 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6513 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6514 [Bodo Moeller]
6515
6516 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6517 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6518
6519 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6520 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6521 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6522 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6523
6524 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6525
6526 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6527 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6528
6529 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6530 library. Most notably,
6531 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6532 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6533 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6534 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6535 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6536 extracted before the specific public key;
6537 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6538 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6539
6540 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6541 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6542 function
6543 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6544 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6545 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6546 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6547 accessed via
6548 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6549 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6550 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6551
6552 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6553 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6554 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6555 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6556 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6557 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6558 differing sizes.
6559 [Richard Levitte]
6560
6561 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6562
6563 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6564 sensitive data.
6565 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6566
6567 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6568 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6569 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6570 [Bodo Moeller]
6571
6572 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6573 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6574 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6575 [Victor Duchovni]
6576
6577 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6578 [Steve Henson]
6579
6580 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6581 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6582 [Steve Henson]
6583
6584 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6585 run algorithm test programs.
6586 [Steve Henson]
6587
6588 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6589 [Steve Henson]
6590
6591 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6592 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6593 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6594 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6595 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6596 [Bodo Moeller]
6597
6598 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6599 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6600 [Steve Henson]
6601
6602 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6603
6604 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6605 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6606 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6607
6608 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6609 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6610
6611 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6612 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6613
6614 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6615 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6616 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6617
6618 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6619 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6620 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6621 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6622 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6623 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6624 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6625 [Bodo Moeller]
6626
6627 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6628
6629 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6630 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6631
6632 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6633 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6634 undesirable limitations.
6635 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6636
6637 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6638
6639 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6640 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6641 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6642
6643 The latter two were purportedly from
6644 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6645 appear there.
6646
6647 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6648 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6649 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6650 [Bodo Moeller]
6651
6652 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6653 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6654 [Bodo Moeller]
6655
6656 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6657
6658 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6659 module in FIPS mode.
6660 [Steve Henson]
6661
6662 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6663 [Steve Henson]
6664
6665 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6666 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6667 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6668 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6669 [Steve Henson]
6670
6671 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6672
6673 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6674 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6675 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6676 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6677 the difference induced by this change.
6678 [Andy Polyakov]
6679
6680 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6681
6682 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6683 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6684 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6685 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6686 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6687
6688 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6689 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6690 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6691
6692 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6693 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6694 [Steve Henson]
6695
6696 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6697 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6698 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6699 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6700 biased k.)
6701 [Bodo Moeller]
6702
6703 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6704 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6705 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6706 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6707 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6708
6709 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6710 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6711 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6712 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6713 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6714 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6715
6716 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6717
6718 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6719 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6720 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6721 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6722 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6723 [Bodo Moeller]
6724
6725 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6726 clients need.
6727 [Steve Henson]
6728
6729 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6730 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6731 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6732 [Steve Henson]
6733
6734 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6735 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6736 structures constant.
6737 [Steve Henson]
6738
6739 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6740
6741 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6742 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6743
6744 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6745 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6746 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6747 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6748 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6749 some needed definitions.
6750 [Steve Henson]
6751
6752 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6753 [Ulf Möller]
6754
6755 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6756 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6757 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6758 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6759 [Richard Levitte]
6760
6761 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6762
6763 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6764 server and client random values. Previously
6765 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6766 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6767
6768 This change has negligible security impact because:
6769
6770 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6771 data.
6772
6773 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6774 handshake.
6775
6776 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6777 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6778 values.
6779
6780 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6781 to our attention.
6782
6783 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6784
6785 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6786 [Ulf Möller]
6787
6788 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6789 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6790 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6791
6792 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6793 [Steve Henson]
6794
6795 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6796 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6797 [Andy Polyakov]
6798
6799 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6800 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6801 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6802
6803 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6804 [Steve Henson]
6805
6806 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6807 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6808 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6809 certificates.
6810 [Steve Henson]
6811
6812 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6813 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6814 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6815 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6816
6817 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6818 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6819 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6820 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6821 been given)
6822 [Richard Levitte]
6823
6824 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6825
6826 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6827 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6828 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6829 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6830 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6831 [Steve Henson]
6832
6833 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6834 [Steve Henson]
6835
6836 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6837 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6838
6839 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6840 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6841 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6842 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6843 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6844 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6845 rather than being initialized to 1.
6846 [Steve Henson]
6847
6848 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6849
6850 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6851 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6852 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6853
6854 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6855 (CVE-2004-0112)
6856 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6857
6858 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6859 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6860 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6861 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6862 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6863 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6864 [Richard Levitte]
6865
6866 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6867 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6868 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6869 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6870 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6871 for these cases.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6875 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6876 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6877 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6878 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6879 [Steve Henson]
6880
6881 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6882 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6883 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6884 < 0.9.7.
6885 [Steve Henson]
6886
6887 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6888 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6889
6890 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6891 [Steve Henson]
6892
6893 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6894
6895 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6896
6897 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6898 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6899
6900 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6901
6902 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6903 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6904
6905 [Steve Henson]
6906
6907 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6908 exiting on the first error in a request.
6909 [Steve Henson]
6910
6911 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6912 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6913 specifications.
6914 [Steve Henson]
6915
6916 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6917 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6918 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6919 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6920
6921 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6922 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6923 [Richard Levitte]
6924
6925 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
6926 blocks during encryption.
6927 [Richard Levitte]
6928
6929 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
6930 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
6931 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
6932 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
6933 certain size.
6934 [Steve Henson]
6935
6936 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
6937 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
6938 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
6939 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
6940 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
6941 parser.
6942 [Steve Henson]
6943
6944 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
6945
6946 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6947 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6948 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6949 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6950 [Bodo Moeller]
6951
6952 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6953 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6954 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6955 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6956 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6957
6958 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6959 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6960 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6961 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6962 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6963 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6964 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6965 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6966 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6967 [Bodo Moeller]
6968
6969 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
6970 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
6971 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
6972 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
6973 [Geoff Thorpe]
6974
6975 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
6976 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6977 [Ulf Moeller]
6978
6979 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6980
6981 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6982 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6983 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6984 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6985 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6986
6987 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6988 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6989 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6990
6991 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6992 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
6993 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
6994 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
6995 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
6996
6997 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
6998 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
6999 used by default when no-err is given.
7000 [Richard Levitte]
7001
7002 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
7003 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
7004
7005 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
7006 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
7007 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
7008 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
7009 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
7010
7011 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
7012 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
7013 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
7014 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
7015
7016 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
7017
7018 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
7019
7020 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
7021
7022 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
7023 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
7024 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
7025 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
7026 root is omitted).
7027 [Steve Henson]
7028
7029 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
7030 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7031
7032 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
7033 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
7034 [Steve Henson]
7035
7036 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
7037 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
7038 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
7039 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
7040 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7041
7042 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
7043 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
7044 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
7045 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
7046 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
7047 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7048 followup to PR #377.
7049 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7050
7051 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
7052 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
7053 [Andy Polyakov]
7054
7055 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
7056 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
7057 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
7058 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
7059
7060 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
7061
7062 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
7063 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
7064
7065 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
7066 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
7067 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
7068 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
7069 client and server.
7070 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
7071 PR #377.
7072 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7073
7074 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
7075 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
7076 removed entirely.
7077 [Richard Levitte]
7078
7079 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
7080 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
7081 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
7082 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
7083 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
7084 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
7085 of libcrypto.
7086 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
7087 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
7088 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
7089 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
7090 have to be made anyway).
7091 [Richard Levitte]
7092
7093 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
7094 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
7095 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
7096 [Steve Henson]
7097
7098 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
7099 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
7100 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
7101 [Richard Levitte]
7102
7103 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
7104 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
7105 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
7106
7107 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
7108 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
7109 edit numbers of the version.
7110 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7111
7112 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
7113 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
7114 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
7115
7116 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
7117 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7118
7119 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7120 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7121 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7122
7123 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
7124 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7125
7126 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
7127 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7128
7129 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
7130 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7131
7132 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
7133 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7134
7135 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
7136 overflows.
7137 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7138
7139 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
7140 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
7141 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7142
7143 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
7144 representations in a platform independent manner.
7145 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7146
7147 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
7148 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
7149 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7150
7151 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
7152 indents.
7153 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7154
7155 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
7156 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7157
7158 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
7159 full. Fixed.
7160 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7161
7162 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
7163 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
7164 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7165
7166 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
7167 unconditionally).
7168 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7169
7170 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
7171 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7172
7173 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
7174 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7175
7176 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
7177 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7178
7179 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
7180 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7181
7182 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
7183 CBCParameter.
7184 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7185
7186 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
7187 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7188
7189 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
7190 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7191
7192 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
7193 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
7194 exploitable.
7195 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7196
7197 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
7198 the 0.9.6 release series:
7199
7200 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7201 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
7202 (CVE-2002-0657)
7203 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7204
7205 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
7206 [Richard Levitte]
7207
7208 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
7209 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
7210
7211 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
7212 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
7213
7214 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
7215 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
7216 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
7217 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
7218
7219 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
7220 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
7221 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
7222
7223 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
7224 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
7225 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
7226 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7227
7228 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
7229 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
7230 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
7231 some local tweaks:
7232
7233 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
7234 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
7235 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
7236 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7237 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
7238 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
7239 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
7240 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
7241 done
7242
7243 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
7244 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
7245 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
7246 [Richard Levitte]
7247
7248 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
7249 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
7250 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
7251 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
7252 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
7253
7254 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
7255 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
7256
7257 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
7258 error in AES-CFB decryption.
7259 [Richard Levitte]
7260
7261 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
7262 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
7263 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
7264 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7265 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7266 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7267 [Steve Henson]
7268
7269 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7270 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7271 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7272 [Steve Henson]
7273
7274 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7275 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7276 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7277
7278 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7279 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7280 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7281 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7282 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7283 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7284 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7285 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7286
7287 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7288 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7289 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7290 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7291 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7292 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7293 [Steve Henson]
7294
7295 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7296 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7297 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7298 declaration has been changed from
7299 int (*cb)()
7300 into
7301 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7302 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7303 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7304 has been changed into
7305 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7306
7307 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7308 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7309 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7310
7311 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7312 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7313
7314 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7315 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7316 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7317 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7318 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7319 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7320 always load it have also been added.
7321 [Steve Henson]
7322
7323 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7324 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7325 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7326
7327 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7328
7329 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7330 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7331 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7332
7333 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7334 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7335 command line option can be used to specify an
7336 alternative file.
7337 [Steve Henson]
7338
7339 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7340 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7341 [Steve Henson]
7342
7343 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7344 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7345 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7346 [Steve Henson]
7347
7348 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7349 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7350 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7351 to work with the new engine framework.
7352 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7353
7354 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7355 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7356 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7357 to work with the new engine framework.
7358 [Richard Levitte]
7359
7360 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7361 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7362 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7363
7364 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7365 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7366
7367 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7368 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7369 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7370 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7371 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7372 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7373
7374 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7375 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7376
7377 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7378 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7379
7380 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7381 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7382 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7383 [Ben Laurie]
7384
7385 *) Add new functions
7386 ERR_peek_last_error
7387 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7388 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7389 These are similar to
7390 ERR_peek_error
7391 ERR_peek_error_line
7392 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7393 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7394 still in the error queue.
7395 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7396
7397 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7398 like:
7399 default_algorithms = ALL
7400 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7401 [Steve Henson]
7402
7403 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7404 [Steve Henson]
7405
7406 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7407 [Steve Henson]
7408
7409 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7410 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7411 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7412 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7413
7414 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7415 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7416
7417 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7418 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7419
7420 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7421 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7422 [Bodo Moeller]
7423
7424 *) New functions/macros
7425
7426 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7427 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7428 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7429 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7430
7431 to request calling a callback function
7432
7433 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7434 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7435
7436 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7437 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7438 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7439 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7440 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7441 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7442 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7443 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7444 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7445 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7446
7447 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7448 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7449 [Bodo Moeller]
7450
7451 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7452 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7453 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7454 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7455 the configuration scripts.
7456
7457 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7458 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7459 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7460
7461 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7462 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7463
7464 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7465 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7466 when reusing an existing buffer.
7467 [Bodo Moeller]
7468
7469 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7470 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7471 [Steve Henson]
7472
7473 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7474 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7475 [Ben Laurie]
7476
7477 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7478 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7479 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7480 has the same effect.
7481 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7482
7483 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7484 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7485 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7486 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7487 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7488 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7489 exception.
7490
7491 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7492 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7493 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7494 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7495
7496 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7497 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7498 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7499 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7500
7501 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7502 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7503 won't work.
7504
7505 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7506 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7507 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7508 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7509 default), and then completely removed.
7510 [Richard Levitte]
7511
7512 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7513 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7514 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7515 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7516 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7517 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7518 particular extension is supported.
7519 [Steve Henson]
7520
7521 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7522 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7523 [Steve Henson]
7524
7525 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7526 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7527 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7528 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7529 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7530 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7531 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7532 requires the destination to be valid.
7533
7534 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7535 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7536 [Steve Henson]
7537
7538 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7539 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7540 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7541 [Bodo Moeller]
7542
7543 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7544 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7545
7546 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7547 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7548 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7549 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7550 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7551 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7552 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7553 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7554 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7555 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7556 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7557 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7558 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7559 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7560 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7561 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7562 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7563 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7564 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7565 the new code.
7566 [Geoff Thorpe]
7567
7568 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7569 [Steve Henson]
7570
7571 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7572 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7573 become part of libeay.num as well.
7574 [Richard Levitte]
7575
7576 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7577 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7578 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7579 false once a handshake has been completed.
7580 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7581 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7582 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7583 client has followed the request.)
7584 [Bodo Moeller]
7585
7586 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7587 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7588 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7589 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7590
7591 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7592 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7593 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7594 [Bodo Moeller]
7595
7596 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7597 [Steve Henson]
7598
7599 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7600 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7601 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7602 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7603
7604 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7605 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7606 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7607
7608 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7609 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7610 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7611 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7612 [Geoff Thorpe]
7613
7614 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7615 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7616 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7617 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7618 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7619 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7620 [Geoff Thorpe]
7621
7622 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7623 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7624 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7625 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7626 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7627 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7628 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7629 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7630 [Geoff Thorpe]
7631
7632 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7633 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7634 [Geoff Thorpe]
7635
7636 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7637 [Ben Laurie]
7638
7639 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7640 md_data void pointer.
7641 [Ben Laurie]
7642
7643 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7644 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7645 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7646 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7647 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7648 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7649 [Ben Laurie]
7650
7651 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7652 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7653 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7654 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7655 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7656 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7657 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7658 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7659 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7660 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7661 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7662 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7663 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7664 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7665 rather than letting it slide.
7666
7667 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7668 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7669 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7670 [Geoff Thorpe]
7671
7672 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7673 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7674 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7675 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7676 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7677 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7678 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7679 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7680 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7681 [Geoff Thorpe]
7682
7683 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7684 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7685 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7686 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7687 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7688
7689 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7690 [Geoff Thorpe]
7691
7692 *) Add EVP test program.
7693 [Ben Laurie]
7694
7695 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7696 [Ben Laurie]
7697
7698 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7699 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7700 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7701 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7702 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7703 [Steve Henson]
7704
7705 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7706 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7707 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7708 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7709 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7710 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7711 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7712
7713 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7714 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7715 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7716 Usage example:
7717
7718 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7719
7720 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7721 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7722 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7723 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7724 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7725
7726 [Ben Laurie]
7727
7728 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7729 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7730 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7731 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7732 anyway): E.g.,
7733
7734 des_key_schedule ks;
7735
7736 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7737 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7738
7739 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7740 [Ben Laurie]
7741
7742 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7743 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7744 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7745 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7746 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7747 functions prevents this.
7748 [Steve Henson]
7749
7750 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7751 [Ben Laurie]
7752
7753 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7754 correct _ecb suffix.
7755 [Ben Laurie]
7756
7757 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7758 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7759 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7760 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7761 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7762 [Steve Henson]
7763
7764 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7765 [Richard Levitte]
7766
7767 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7768 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7769 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7770 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7771
7772 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7773 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7774
7775 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7776 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7777 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7778 via Richard Levitte]
7779
7780 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7781 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7782 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7783 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7784 [Geoff Thorpe]
7785
7786 *) Speed up EVP routines.
7787 Before:

7802 [Ben Laurie]
7803
7804 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7805 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7806
7807 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7808 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7809 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7810 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7811 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7812 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7813 [Steve Henson]
7814
7815 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7816 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7817 [Richard Levitte]
7818
7819 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7820 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7821 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7822 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7823
7824 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7825 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7826 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7827 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7828 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7829 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7830 callback.
7831 [Richard Levitte]
7832
7833 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7834 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7835 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7836 and interrupts/cancellations.
7837 [Richard Levitte]
7838
7839 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7840 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7841 [Steve Henson]
7842
7843 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7844 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7845 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7846
7847 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7848 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7849 kind of callback.
7850 [Richard Levitte]
7851
7852 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7853 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7854 than this minimum value is recommended.
7855 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7856
7857 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7858 that are easily reachable.
7859 [Richard Levitte]
7860
7861 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7862 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7863
7864 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7865
7866 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7867 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7868 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7869 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7870 [Steve Henson]
7871
7872 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7873 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7874 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7875 [Steve Henson]
7876
7877 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7878 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7879 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7880 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7881 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7882 internally such as S/MIME.
7883
7884 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7885 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7886 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7887
7888 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7889 applications.
7890 [Steve Henson]
7891
7892 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7893 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7894 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7895 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7896
7897 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7898
7899 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7900
7901 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7902 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7903 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7904 handling.
7905 [Steve Henson]
7906
7907 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7908 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7909 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7910 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7911 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7912 a window system and the like.
7913 [Richard Levitte]
7914
7915 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7916 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7917 [Geoff]
7918
7919 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7920 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7921 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7922 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
7923 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
7924 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
7925 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
7926 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
7927 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
7928 ENGINE structure.
7929 [Geoff]
7930
7931 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
7932 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
7933 tag cache.
7934 [Steve Henson]
7935
7936 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
7937 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
7938 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
7939 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
7940 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
7941 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
7942 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
7943 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
7944 [Geoff]
7945
7946 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
7947 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
7948 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
7949 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
7950 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
7951 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
7952 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
7953 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
7954 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
7955 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
7956 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
7957 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
7958 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
7959 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
7960 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
7961 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
7962 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
7963 [Geoff]
7964
7965 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
7966 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
7967 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
7968 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
7969 internal engine_int.h header.
7970 [Geoff]
7971
7972 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
7973 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
7974 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
7975 modify their own ones).
7976 [Geoff]
7977
7978 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7979 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7980 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7981 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7982 later on via ctrl() commands.
7983 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7984 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7985 structural references.
7986 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7987 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7988 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7989 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7990 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7991 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7992 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
7993 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
7994 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
7995 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
7996 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
7997 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
7998 [Geoff]
7999
8000 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
8001 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
8002 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
8003 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
8004 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
8005 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
8006 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
8007 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
8008 [Bodo Moeller]
8009
8010 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
8011 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
8012 [Steve Henson]
8013
8014 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
8015 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
8016 [Steve Henson]
8017
8018 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
8019 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
8020 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
8021 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
8022 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
8023 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
8024 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
8025 [Steve Henson]
8026
8027 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
8028 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
8029 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
8030 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
8031 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
8032
8033 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
8034 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
8035 generator).
8036 [Bodo Moeller]
8037
8038 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
8039
8040 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
8041 operations and provides various method functions that can also
8042 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
8043
8044 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
8045 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
8046
8047 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
8048 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
8049 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
8050
8051 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
8052 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
8053
8054 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
8055 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
8056
8057 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
8058
8059 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
8060 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
8061 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
8062 [Bodo Moeller]
8063
8064 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
8065 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
8066 [Richard Levitte]
8067
8068 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
8069 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
8070 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
8071 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
8072 is 40 of more characters long.
8073 [Steve Henson]
8074
8075 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
8076 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
8077 pointers.
8078 [Steve Henson]
8079
8080 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
8081 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
8082 [Bodo Moeller]
8083
8084 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
8085 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
8086 might.
8087 [Steve Henson]
8088
8089 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
8090
8091 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
8092 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
8093
8094 ASN1 error codes
8095 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
8096 ...
8097 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
8098 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
8099 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
8100 ...
8101 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
8102 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
8103
8104 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
8105 [Bodo Moeller]
8106
8107 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
8108 suffices.
8109 [Bodo Moeller]
8110
8111 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
8112 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
8113 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
8114 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
8115 and
8116 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
8117
8118 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
8119 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
8120
8121 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
8122 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
8123 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
8124 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
8125 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
8126 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
8127
8128 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
8129 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
8130
8131 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
8132 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8133
8134 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
8135 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
8136
8137 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
8138 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
8139 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
8140 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
8141
8142 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
8143 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
8144
8145 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
8146 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
8147
8148 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
8149 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
8150 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
8151 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
8152 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
8153 [Richard Levitte]
8154
8155 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
8156 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
8157 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
8158 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
8159 [Steve Henson]
8160
8161 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
8162 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
8163 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
8164 trust settings.
8165 [Steve Henson]
8166
8167 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
8168 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
8169 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
8170 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
8171 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
8172 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
8173 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
8174 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
8175 ocsp utility.
8176 [Steve Henson]
8177
8178 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
8179 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
8180 [Steve Henson]
8181
8182 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
8183 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
8184 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
8185 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
8186 [Steve Henson]
8187
8188 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
8189 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
8190 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
8191 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
8192 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
8193 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
8194 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
8195 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
8196 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
8197 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
8198 [Steve Henson]
8199
8200 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
8201 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
8202 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
8203 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
8204 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
8205 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
8206 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
8207 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8208
8209 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
8210 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
8211 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
8212 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
8213 [Richard Levitte]
8214
8215 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
8216 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
8217 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
8218 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
8219 opensslconf.h.
8220 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
8221 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
8222 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
8223 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
8224 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
8225 what is available.
8226 [Richard Levitte]
8227
8228 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
8229 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
8230 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
8231 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
8232 auto incremented.
8233 [Steve Henson]
8234
8235 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
8236 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
8237 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
8238 [Steve Henson]
8239
8240 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
8241 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
8242 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
8243 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
8244 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
8245 [Steve Henson]
8246
8247 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
8248 [Steve Henson]
8249
8250 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
8251 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
8252 option to ocsp utility.
8253 [Steve Henson]
8254
8255 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
8256 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
8257 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
8258 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
8259 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
8260 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
8261 the request is nonce-less.
8262 [Steve Henson]
8263
8264 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8265 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8266 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8267 [Bodo Moeller]
8268
8269 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8270 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8271 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8272 [Steve Henson]
8273
8274 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8275 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8276 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8277 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8278 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8279 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8280
8281 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8282 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8283 appear to exist.
8284 [Steve Henson]
8285
8286 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8287 additional certificates supplied.
8288 [Steve Henson]
8289
8290 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8291 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8292 signature against.
8293 [Richard Levitte]
8294
8295 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8296 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8297 AES OIDs.
8298
8299 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8300 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8301 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8302 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8303 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8304 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8305 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8306 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8307 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8308
8309 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8310 request to response.
8311 [Steve Henson]
8312
8313 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8314 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8315 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8316 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8317 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8318 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8319 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8320 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8321 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8322 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8323 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8324 [Steve Henson]
8325
8326 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8327 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8328 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8329 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8330 [Steve Henson]
8331
8332 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8333 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8334
8335 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8336 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8337 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8338 [Steve Henson]
8339
8340 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8341 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8342 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8343 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8344 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8345
8346 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8347 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8348 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8349 [Steve Henson]
8350
8351 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8352 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8353 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8354 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8355 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8356 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8357 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8358 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8359
8360 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8361 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8362 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8363 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8364 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8365 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8366 [Steve Henson]
8367
8368 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8369 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8370 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8371 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8372 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8373 printout format cleaned up.
8374 [Steve Henson]
8375
8376 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8377 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8378 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8379 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8380 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8381 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8382 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8383 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8384 [Steve Henson]
8385
8386 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8387 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8388 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8389 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8390 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8391 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8392 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8393 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8394 [Steve Henson]
8395
8396 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8397 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8398 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8399 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8400 section to use.
8401 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8402
8403 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8404 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8405 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8406 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8407 [Steve Henson]
8408
8409 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8410 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8411 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8412 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8413 in the index file.
8414 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8415
8416 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8417 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8418 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8419 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8420
8421 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8422 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8423
8424 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8425 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8426 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8427 [Steve Henson]
8428
8429 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8430 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8431 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8432 [Bodo Moeller]
8433
8434 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8435 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8436 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8437 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8438 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8439 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8440 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8441 functions are provided:
8442
8443 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8444 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8445 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8446 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8447
8448 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8449 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8450 extended allocation function is enabled.
8451 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8452 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8453 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8454
8455 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8456 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8457 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8458 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8459 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8460 [Geoff Thorpe]
8461
8462 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8463 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8464 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8465 be queried.
8466 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8467 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8468 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8469 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8470
8471 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8472 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8473 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8474 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8475 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8476 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8477 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8478 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8479 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8480 [Richard Levitte]
8481
8482 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8483 provide utility functions which an application needing
8484 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8485 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8486 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8487
8488 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8489 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8490 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8491 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8492 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8493 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8494 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8495 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8496 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8497
8498 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8499 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8500 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8501 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8502 [Steve Henson]
8503
8504 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8505 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8506 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8507 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8508 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8509 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8510 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8511 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8512 will be added elsewhere.
8513 [Steve Henson]
8514
8515 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8516 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8517 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8518 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8519 [Steve Henson]
8520
8521 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8522 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8523 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8524 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8525 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8526 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8527 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8528 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8529 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8530 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8531 to produce the required SET OF.
8532 [Steve Henson]
8533
8534 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8535 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8536 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8537 [Richard Levitte]
8538
8539 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8540 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8541 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8542 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8543 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8544 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8545 [Steve Henson]
8546
8547 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8548 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8549 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8550 [Steve Henson]
8551
8552 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8553 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8554 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8555 [Richard Levitte]
8556
8557 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8558 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8559 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8560 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8561 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8562 [Steve Henson]
8563
8564 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8565 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8566 [Steve Henson]
8567
8568 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8569 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8570 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8571 certificates and CRLs.
8572 [Steve Henson]
8573
8574 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8575 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8576 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8577 [Steve Henson]
8578
8579 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8580 entries for variables.
8581 [Steve Henson]
8582
8583 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8584 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8585 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8586 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8587 [Bodo Moeller]
8588
8589 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8590 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8591 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8592 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8593 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8594 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8595 [Bodo Moeller]
8596
8597 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8598 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8599
8600 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8601 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8602 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8603 [Steve Henson]
8604
8605 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8606 print routines.
8607 [Steve Henson]
8608
8609 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8610 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8611 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8612 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8613 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8614 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8615 [Steve Henson]
8616
8617 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8618 [Steve Henson]
8619
8620 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8621 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8622 for now but they will eventually go away.
8623 [Steve Henson]
8624
8625 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8626 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8627 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8628 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8629 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8630 has also been converted to the new form.
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
8633 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8634 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8635 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8636 for negative moduli.
8637 [Bodo Moeller]
8638
8639 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8640 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8641 [Bodo Moeller]
8642
8643 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8644 set.
8645 [Bodo Moeller]
8646
8647 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8648 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8649 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8650 type-specific callbacks.
8651 [Geoff Thorpe]
8652
8653 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8654 RFC 2712.
8655 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8656 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8657
8658 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8659 in sections depending on the subject.
8660 [Richard Levitte]
8661
8662 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8663 Windows.
8664 [Richard Levitte]
8665
8666 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8667 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8668 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8669 be handled deterministically).
8670 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8671
8672 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8673 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8674 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8675 [Bodo Moeller]
8676
8677 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8678 [Bodo Moeller]
8679
8680 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8681 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8682 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8683 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8684 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8685 [Bodo Moeller]
8686
8687 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8688 sign of the number in question.
8689
8690 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8691
8692 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8693 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8694 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8695 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8696 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8697 [Bodo Moeller]
8698
8699 *) New function BN_swap.
8700 [Bodo Moeller]
8701
8702 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8703 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8704 results on negative inputs.
8705 [Bodo Moeller]
8706
8707 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8708 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8709 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8710 [Bodo Moeller]
8711
8712 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8713 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8714 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8715 and add new functions:
8716
8717 BN_nnmod
8718 BN_mod_sqr
8719 BN_mod_add
8720 BN_mod_add_quick
8721 BN_mod_sub
8722 BN_mod_sub_quick
8723 BN_mod_lshift1
8724 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8725 BN_mod_lshift
8726 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8727
8728 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8729
8730 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8731 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8732
8733 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8734 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8735 be reduced modulo m.

8738 #if 0
8739 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8740 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8741 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8742
8743 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8744 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8745 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8746 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8747 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8748 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8749 differing sizes.
8750 [Richard Levitte]
8751 #endif
8752
8753 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8754 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8755 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8756 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8757 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8758
8759 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8760 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8761 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8762 cause any problems.
8763 [Bodo Moeller]
8764
8765 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8766 [Richard Levitte]
8767
8768 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8769 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8770 [Richard Levitte]
8771
8772 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8773 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8774 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8775 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8776 time)
8777 [Richard Levitte]
8778
8779 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8780 [Richard Levitte]
8781
8782 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8783 [Richard Levitte]
8784
8785 *) Add the following functions:
8786
8787 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8788 ENGINE_load_chil()
8789 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8790 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8791 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8792
8793 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8794 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8795 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8796 libraries unless it's really needed.
8797
8798 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8799 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8800 declarations (they differed!).
8801 [Richard Levitte]
8802
8803 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8804 [Richard Levitte]
8805
8806 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8807 [Richard Levitte]
8808
8809 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8810 [Bodo Moeller]
8811
8812 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8813 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8814 [Richard Levitte]
8815
8816 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8817 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8818 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8819
8820 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8821 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8822 [Richard Levitte]
8823
8824 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8825 [Richard Levitte]
8826
8827 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8828 [Richard Levitte]
8829
8830 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8831 [Ben Laurie]
8832
8833 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8834 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8835 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8836
8837 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8838 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8839 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8840 different shared library filenames on each system.
8841 [Geoff Thorpe]
8842
8843 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8844 [Richard Levitte]
8845
8846 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8847 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8848 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8849 of two sections.
8850 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8851
8852 *) NCONF changes.
8853 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8854 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8855 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8856 binary backward compatibility.
8857 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8858 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8859 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8860 LDAP server.
8861 [Richard Levitte]
8862
8863 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8864 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8865 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8866 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8867 this case.
8868 [Steve Henson]
8869
8870 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8871 [Ben Laurie]
8872
8873 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8874 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8875 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8876 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8877 set.
8878 [Steve Henson]
8879
8880 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8881 [Richard Levitte]
8882
8883 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8884
8885 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8886 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8887 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8888
8889 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8890
8891 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8892
8893 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8894 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8895 [Steve Henson]
8896
8897 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8898
8899 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8900
8901 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8902 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8903
8904 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8905 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8906
8907 [Steve Henson]
8908
8909 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8910 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8911 specifications.
8912 [Steve Henson]
8913
8914 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8915 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8916 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8917 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8918
8919 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8920 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8921 [Richard Levitte]
8922
8923 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
8924
8925 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
8926 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
8927 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
8928 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
8929 [Bodo Moeller]
8930
8931 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
8932 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
8933 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
8934 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
8935 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8936
8937 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
8938 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
8939 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
8940 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
8941 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
8942 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
8943 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
8944 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
8945 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
8946 [Bodo Moeller]
8947
8948 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
8949
8950 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
8951 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
8952 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
8953 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
8954 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
8955
8956 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
8957 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
8958 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
8959
8960 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
8961
8962 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
8963 memory from its contents. This is done with a counter that will
8964 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
8965 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
8966 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
8967 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
8968 [Geoff Thorpe]
8969
8970 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
8971 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
8972 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
8973 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
8974 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
8975 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8976
8977 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8978 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8979 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8980
8981 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8982 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8983 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8984 EVP_cleanup().
8985 [Richard Levitte]
8986
8987 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8988 being properly terminated.
8989 [Richard Levitte]
8990
8991 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8992 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
8993 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
8994 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
8995
8996 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
8997 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
8998 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
8999 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
9000 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
9001 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
9002 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
9003 change.
9004 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
9005
9006 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
9007 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
9008 [Bodo Moeller]
9009
9010 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
9011 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
9012 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
9013 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
9014 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
9015 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
9016 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
9017 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
9018
9019 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
9020 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
9021 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
9022 (see [openssl.org #212]).
9023 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
9024
9025 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
9026 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
9027 [Steve Henson]
9028
9029 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
9030
9031 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
9032 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
9033 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
9034
9035 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
9036
9037 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
9038 and get fix the header length calculation.
9039 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
9040 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
9041 Steve Henson]
9042
9043 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
9044 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
9045 assertions could call abort()).
9046 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
9047
9048 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
9049
9050 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9051 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9052 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9053 supplied buffer.
9054 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9055
9056 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
9057 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
9058 by the selection routines (PR #130).
9059 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9060
9061 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
9062 [Nils Larsch]
9063
9064 *) New option
9065 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
9066 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
9067 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
9068
9069 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
9070 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
9071 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
9072 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
9073 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
9074 applications.
9075 [Bodo Moeller]
9076
9077 *) Changes in security patch:
9078
9079 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
9080 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
9081 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
9082 F30602-01-2-0537.
9083
9084 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
9085 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
9086 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
9087 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
9088 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
9089
9090 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
9091 happen in practice.
9092 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9093
9094 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
9095 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
9096 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
9097
9098 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
9099 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
9100 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9101
9102 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
9103 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
9104 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
9105
9106 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
9107
9108 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
9109 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
9110 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
9111
9112 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
9113 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
9114
9115 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
9116 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
9117 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
9118 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
9119 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
9120 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
9121 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9122
9123 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
9124 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
9125 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
9126 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
9127 [Bodo Moeller]
9128
9129 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
9130 [Bodo Moeller]
9131
9132 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
9133 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
9134 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
9135 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
9136 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
9137 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9138
9139 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
9140 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
9141 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
9142 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
9143 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
9144 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9145
9146 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
9147 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
9148 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
9149 BN_generate_prime().)
9150
9151 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
9152 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
9153 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
9154 better.
9155 [Bodo Moeller]
9156
9157 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
9158 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
9159 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9160
9161 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
9162 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
9163 when using non-blocking I/O.
9164 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
9165
9166 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
9167 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
9168
9169 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
9170 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
9171 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9172
9173 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
9174 configuration for the versions before that.
9175 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
9176
9177 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
9178 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
9179 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
9180 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
9181 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9182
9183 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
9184 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
9185 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
9186 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9187
9188 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
9189 value is 0.
9190 [Richard Levitte]
9191
9192 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
9193 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
9194 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
9195
9196 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
9197 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
9198
9199 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
9200 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
9201 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
9202 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
9203 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
9204 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
9205 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
9206 session cache.
9207
9208 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
9209 using a local variable.
9210 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
9211
9212 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
9213 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
9214 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
9215
9216 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
9217 [Richard Levitte]
9218
9219 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
9220 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
9221
9222 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
9223 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
9224 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
9225
9226 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
9227
9228 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
9229 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
9230 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
9231 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
9232 [Bodo Moeller]
9233
9234 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
9235 present.
9236 [Steve Henson]
9237
9238 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
9239 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
9240 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
9241 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
9242 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
9243
9244 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
9245 returns early because it has nothing to do.
9246 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9247
9248 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9249 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
9250 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9251
9252 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9253 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
9254 (Use engine 'keyclient')
9255 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
9256
9257 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
9258 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
9259 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
9260 modules).
9261 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
9262
9263 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9264 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9265 from 0.9.7.
9266 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9267
9268 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9269 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9270 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9271 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9272
9273 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9274 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9275 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9276 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9277
9278 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9279 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9280
9281 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9282 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9283 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9284 [Bodo Moeller]
9285
9286 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9287 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9288 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9289 become invalid.
9290 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9291
9292 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9293 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9294 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9295 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9296 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9297 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9298 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9299 [Bodo Moeller]
9300
9301 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9302 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9303 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9304 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9305
9306 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9307 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9308 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9309 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9310 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9311 the client will at least see that alert.
9312 [Bodo Moeller]
9313
9314 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9315 correctly.
9316 [Bodo Moeller]
9317
9318 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9319 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9320 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9321
9322 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9323 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9324 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9325 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9326 HelloRequest.
9327
9328 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9329 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9330 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9331
9332 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9333 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9334 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9335 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9336 may leak via logfiles.)
9337
9338 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9339 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9340 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9341 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9342 the legal range.
9343 [Bodo Moeller]
9344
9345 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9346 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9347 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9348
9349 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9350 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9351 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9352 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9353 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9354 [Bodo Moeller]
9355
9356 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9357 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9358
9359 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9360 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9361 followed by modular reduction.
9362 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9363
9364 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9365 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9366 [Bodo Moeller]
9367
9368 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9369 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9370 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9371 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9372 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9373
9374 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9375 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9376
9377 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9378 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9379 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9380
9381 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9382 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9383 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9384 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9385 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9386 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9387 automatically.
9388 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9389
9390 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9391 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9392 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9393 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9394 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9395
9396 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9397 [Andy Polyakov]
9398
9399 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9400 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9401 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9402 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9403 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9404 to allow the necessary settings.
9405 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9406
9407 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9408 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9409 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9410 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9411 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9412
9413 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9414 dh->length and always used
9415
9416 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9417
9418 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9419 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9420 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9421 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9422 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9423 dh->length.
9424
9425 So switch back to
9426
9427 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9428
9429 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9430 otherwise.
9431 [Bodo Moeller]
9432
9433 *) In
9434
9435 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9436 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9437 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9438 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9439
9440 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9441 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9442 always reject numbers >= n.
9443 [Bodo Moeller]
9444
9445 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9446 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9447 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9448 variable) is not atomic.
9449 [Bodo Moeller]
9450
9451 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9452 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9453 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9454 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9455
9456 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9457 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9458
9459 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9460 little-endian MIPS.
9461 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9462
9463 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9464 [Richard Levitte]
9465
9466 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9467
9468 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9469 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9470 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9471 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9472 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9473 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9474 to traverse all of 'state'.
9475
9476 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9477 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9478 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9479
9480 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9481 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9482
9483 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9484 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9485 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9486 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9487 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9488 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9489 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9490 further strengthens the PRNG.
9491 [Bodo Moeller]
9492
9493 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9494 [Andy Polyakov]
9495
9496 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9497 an error message in this case.
9498 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9499
9500 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9501 [Steve Henson]
9502
9503 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9504 positive and less than q.
9505 [Bodo Moeller]
9506
9507 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9508 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9509 that itself.
9510 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9511
9512 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9513 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9514 [Bodo Moeller]
9515
9516 *) Fix OAEP check.
9517 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9518
9519 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9520 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9521 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9522 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9523 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9524 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9525 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9526 paper.)
9527
9528 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9529 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9530 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9531 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9532
9533 Both problems are now fixed.
9534 [Bodo Moeller]
9535
9536 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9537 (previously it was 1024).
9538 [Bodo Moeller]
9539
9540 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9541 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9542 [Steve Henson]
9543
9544 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9545 [Steve Henson]
9546
9547 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9548 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9549 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9550 [Steve Henson]
9551
9552 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9553 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9554 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9555 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9556 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9557 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9558 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9559 environment variables.
9560
9561 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9562 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9563 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9564 [Bodo Moeller]
9565
9566 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9567 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9568 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9569 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9570 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9571 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9572 [Bodo Moeller]
9573
9574 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9575 versions of 'test'.
9576 [Bodo Moeller]
9577
9578 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9579
9580 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9581 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9582
9583 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9584 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9585 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9586 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9587 CygWin.
9588 [Richard Levitte]
9589
9590 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9591 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9592 amount of data available.
9593 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9594 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9595
9596 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9597 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9598 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9599 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9600 [Bodo Moeller]
9601
9602 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9603 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9604 and UnixWare.
9605 [Richard Levitte]
9606
9607 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9608 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9609 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9610 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9611 [Ulf Moeller]
9612
9613 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9614 [Andy Polyakov]
9615
9616 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9617 [Richard Levitte]
9618
9619 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9620 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9621 [Steve Henson]
9622 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9623
9624 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9625 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9626 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9627 (but broken) behaviour.
9628 [Steve Henson]
9629
9630 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9631 it when found.
9632 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9633
9634 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9635 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9636 [Bodo Moeller]
9637
9638 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9639 did not exist.
9640 [Bodo Moeller]
9641
9642 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9643 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9644
9645 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9646 [Richard Levitte]
9647
9648 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9649 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9650 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9651
9652 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9653 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9654 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9655 [Steve Henson]
9656
9657 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9658 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9659 [Ulf Moeller]
9660
9661 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9662 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9663
9664 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9665
9666 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9667
9668 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9669 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9670 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9671 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9672 [Bodo Moeller]
9673
9674 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9675 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9676
9677 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9678 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9679 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9680
9681 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9682 was empty.
9683 [Steve Henson]
9684 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9685
9686 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9687 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9688 but the code is actually correct.
9689 [Steve Henson]
9690
9691 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9692 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9693 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9694 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9695 and leaves the highest bit random.
9696 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9697
9698 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9699 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9700 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9701 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9702 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9703 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9704 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9705 [Bodo Moeller]
9706
9707 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9708 [Ulf Moeller]
9709
9710 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9711 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9712 [Steve Henson]
9713
9714 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9715 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9716 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9717 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9718 headers.
9719 [Richard Levitte]
9720
9721 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9722 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9723 and break the signature.
9724 [Steve Henson]
9725 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9726
9727 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9728 DH ciphersuites.
9729 [Steve Henson]
9730
9731 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9732 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9733 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9734 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9735 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9736 [Bodo Moeller]
9737
9738 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9739 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9740
9741 *) ./config script fixes.
9742 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9743
9744 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9745 [Bodo Moeller]
9746
9747 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9748 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9749 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9750 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9751 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9752
9753 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9754 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9755 [Bodo Moeller]
9756
9757 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9758 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9759 [Steve Henson]
9760
9761 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9762 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9763 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9764 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9765
9766 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9767 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9768
9769 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9770 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9771 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9772 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9773 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9774
9775 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9776 [Bodo Moeller]
9777
9778 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9779 [Ulf Möller]
9780
9781 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9782 [Ulf Möller]
9783
9784 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9785 [Bodo Moeller]
9786
9787 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9788 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9789 [Bodo Moeller]
9790
9791 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9792 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9793 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9794 result of the server certificate verification.)
9795 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9796
9797 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9798 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9799 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9800 [Bodo Moeller]
9801
9802 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9803 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9804 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9805 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9806 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9807 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9808 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9809 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9810 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9811 [Bodo Moeller]
9812
9813 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9814 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9815 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9816 happening the other way round.
9817 [Geoff Thorpe]
9818
9819 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9820 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9821 [Bodo Moeller]
9822
9823 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9824 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9825 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9826 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9827 [Richard Levitte]
9828
9829 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9830 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9831
9832 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9833
9834 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9835 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9836 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9837 that.
9838
9839 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9840
9841 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9842
9843 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9844 static ones.
9845 [Richard Levitte]
9846
9847 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9848
9849 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9850 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9851 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9852 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9853 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9854
9855 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9856 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9857 matter what.
9858 [Richard Levitte]
9859
9860 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9861 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9862
9863 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9864
9865 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9866 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9867 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9868 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9869 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9870 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9871 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9872 by the Finished messages.
9873 [Bodo Moeller]
9874
9875 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9876 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9877
9878 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9879 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9880 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9881 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9882 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9883 appropriately.
9884 [Steve Henson]
9885
9886 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9887 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9888 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9889 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9890 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9891 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9892 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9893 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9894 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9895 together.
9896 [Steve Henson]
9897
9898 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9899 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9900 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9901 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9902
9903 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9904 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9905 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9906 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9907 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9908 the answer.
9909
9910 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9911 been tested well enough.
9912 [Richard Levitte]
9913
9914 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9915 it can return incorrect results.
9916 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9917 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9918 [Bodo Moeller]
9919
9920 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9921 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9922 include zero length content when signing messages.
9923 [Steve Henson]
9924
9925 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
9926 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
9927 [Bodo Möller]
9928
9929 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
9930 [Richard Levitte]
9931
9932 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
9933 wrong sign.
9934 [Ulf Möller]
9935
9936 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
9937 packages. The default package contains applications, application
9938 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
9939 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
9940 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
9941 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
9942 [Richard Levitte]
9943
9944 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
9945 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9946
9947 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
9948 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
9949
9950 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
9951 random number < q in the DSA library.
9952 [Ulf Möller]
9953
9954 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
9955 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
9956 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
9957 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
9958 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
9959 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
9960 just makes things more complicated.)
9961 [Bodo Moeller]
9962
9963 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
9964 from EGD.
9965 [Ben Laurie]
9966
9967 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
9968 work better on such systems.
9969 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9970
9971 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
9972 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
9973 keyid to the certificates aux info.
9974 [Steve Henson]
9975
9976 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9977 if there was more than one signature.
9978 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9979
9980 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9981 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9982 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9983 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9984 [Richard Levitte]
9985
9986 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9987 rather than always using the current time.
9988 [Steve Henson]
9989
9990 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9991 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9992 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
9993 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
9994 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
9995 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
9996
9997 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
9998 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
9999
10000 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
10001
10002 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
10003 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
10004 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
10005 the same hash value.
10006
10007 As a result various functions (which were all internal
10008 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
10009 structure. This will break anything that messed round
10010 with X509_STORE internally.
10011
10012 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
10013 exact match, rather than just subject name.
10014
10015 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
10016 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
10017 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
10018 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
10019 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
10020 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
10021 entirely (maybe later...).
10022
10023 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
10024
10025 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
10026 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
10027 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
10028 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
10029 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
10030 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
10031 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
10032 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
10033
10034 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
10035 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
10036
10037 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
10038 to customise the verify behaviour.
10039 [Steve Henson]
10040
10041 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
10042 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
10043 [Steve Henson]
10044
10045 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
10046 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
10047 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
10048 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
10049 request is improperly encoded.
10050 [Steve Henson]
10051
10052 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
10053 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
10054 BIO_write(b, ...).
10055
10056 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
10057 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
10058
10059 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
10060 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
10061 words set to zero.)
10062 [Bodo Moeller]
10063
10064 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
10065 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
10066 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
10067 [Bodo Moeller]
10068
10069 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
10070 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
10071 BIO/fp routines also added.
10072 [Steve Henson]
10073
10074 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
10075 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
10076
10077 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
10078 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
10079 demos/state_machine.
10080 [Ben Laurie]
10081
10082 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
10083 generation and verification.
10084 [Steve Henson]
10085
10086 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
10087 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
10088 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
10089 encode and decode it manually.
10090 [Steve Henson]
10091
10092 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
10093 compile under VC++.
10094 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
10095
10096 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
10097 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
10098 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
10099 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
10100
10101 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
10102 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
10103 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
10104 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
10105 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
10106 [Steve Henson]
10107
10108 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
10109 [Richard Levitte]
10110
10111 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
10112 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
10113 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
10114
10115 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
10116 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
10117 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
10118 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
10119 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
10120 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
10121 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
10122 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
10123
10124 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
10125 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
10126
10127 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
10128
10129 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
10130 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
10131 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
10132
10133 [Richard Levitte]
10134
10135 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
10136 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
10137 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
10138 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
10139 [Richard Levitte]
10140
10141 *) MD4 implemented.
10142 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
10143
10144 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
10145 [Richard Levitte]
10146
10147 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
10148 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
10149 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
10150 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
10151 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
10152 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
10153 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
10154 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
10155 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
10156 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
10157 short or long names are found.
10158 [Steve Henson]
10159
10160 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
10161 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
10162
10163 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
10164 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
10165 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
10166 version rollback attacks was not effective.
10167
10168 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
10169 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
10170 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
10171 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
10172 [Bodo Moeller]
10173
10174 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
10175 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
10176 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
10177 [Richard Levitte]
10178
10179 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
10180 these print out strings and name structures based on various
10181 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
10182 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
10183 to allow the various flags to be set.
10184 [Steve Henson]
10185
10186 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
10187 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
10188 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
10189 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
10190 dates to be checked.
10191 [Steve Henson]
10192
10193 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
10194 negative public key encodings) on by default,
10195 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
10196 [Steve Henson]
10197
10198 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
10199 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
10200 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
10201 [Steve Henson]
10202
10203 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
10204 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
10205 [Bodo Moeller]
10206
10207 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
10208 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
10209 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
10210 are always statically linked for now, but there are
10211 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
10212 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
10213 [Richard Levitte]
10214
10215 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
10216 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
10217 Random Numbers.
10218 [Ulf Möller]
10219
10220 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
10221 DSA key.
10222 [Steve Henson]
10223
10224 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
10225 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
10226 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
10227 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
10228 form signing output easier to verify.
10229 [Steve Henson]
10230
10231 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
10232 [Steve Henson]
10233
10234 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
10235 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
10236 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
10237 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
10238 are needed because all other string types have virtually
10239 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
10240 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
10241 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
10242 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
10243 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
10244 [Steve Henson]
10245
10246 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
10247
10248 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
10249 the syntax given in objects.README.
10250 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
10251 obj_mac.h.
10252 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
10253 obj_mac.h.
10254
10255 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
10256 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
10257 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
10258 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
10259 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
10260 consistent name changes.
10261 [Richard Levitte]
10262
10263 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
10264 [Bodo Moeller]
10265
10266 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10267 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10268 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10269 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10270 [Richard Levitte]
10271
10272 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10273 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10274 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10275 of safestack.h .
10276 [Steve Henson]
10277
10278 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10279 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10280 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10281 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10282 [Steve Henson]
10283
10284 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10285 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10286 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10287 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10288 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10289 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10290 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10291 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10292 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10293 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10294 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10295 [Steve Henson]
10296
10297 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10298 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10299 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10300 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10301 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10302 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10303 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10304 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10305 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10306 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10307 [Steve Henson]
10308
10309 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10310 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10311 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10312 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10313
10314 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10315 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10316 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10317 omit any duplicate addresses.
10318 [Steve Henson]
10319
10320 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10321 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10322 [Bodo Moeller]
10323
10324 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10325 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10326 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10327 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10328 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10329 [Bodo Moeller]
10330
10331 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10332 software:
10333 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10334 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10335 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10336 Free => OPENSSL_free
10337 [Richard Levitte]
10338
10339 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10340 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10341 [Bodo Moeller]
10342
10343 *) CygWin32 support.
10344 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10345
10346 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10347 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10348 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10349 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10350 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10351 approach.
10352 [Geoff Thorpe]
10353
10354 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10355 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10356 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10357 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10358 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10359 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10360 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10361 [Geoff Thorpe]
10362
10363 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10364 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10365 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10366 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10367 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10368 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10369 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10370 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10371 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10372 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10373 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10374 [Bodo Moeller]
10375
10376 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10377 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10378 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10379 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10380 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10381
10382 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10383 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10384 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10385 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10386 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10387
10388 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10389 ciphers.
10390
10391 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10392 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10393 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10394 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10395
10396 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10397
10398 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10399 of macros.
10400
10401 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10402 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10403 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10404 flags.
10405
10406 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10407 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10408 any installed hardware versions can.
10409 [Steve Henson]
10410
10411 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10412 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10413 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10414 number.
10415 [Bodo Moeller]
10416
10417 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10418 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10419 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10420 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10421 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10422
10423 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10424 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10425 [Steve Henson]
10426
10427 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10428 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10429 [Richard Levitte]
10430
10431 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10432 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10433 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10434 features.
10435 [Steve Henson]
10436
10437 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10438 [Ulf Möller]
10439
10440 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10441 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10442 but no ssl client purpose.
10443 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10444
10445 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10446 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10447 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10448 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10449 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10450 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10451 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10452 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10453 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10454 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10455 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10456 [Steve Henson]
10457
10458 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10459 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10460 be obtained from the error queue.
10461 [Bodo Moeller]
10462
10463 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10464 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10465 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10466 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10467 [Bodo Moeller]
10468
10469 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10470 [Ulf Möller]
10471
10472 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10473 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10474 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10475 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10476 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10477 [Geoff Thorpe]
10478
10479 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10480 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10481 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10482 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10483 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10484 [Geoff Thorpe]
10485
10486 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10487 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10488 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10489 may not be NULL.
10490 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10491
10492 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10493 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10494 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10495 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10496 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10497 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10498 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10499 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10500 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10501 or "the configuration storage API"...
10502
10503 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10504
10505 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10506 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10507
10508 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10509
10510 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10511
10512 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10513 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10514 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10515 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10516 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10517 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10518 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10519
10520 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10521 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10522 [Richard Levitte]
10523
10524 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10525 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10526 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10527 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10528 [Bodo Moeller]
10529
10530 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10531 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10532 them in a portable way.
10533 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10534
10535 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10536
10537 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10538
10539 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10540 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10541
10542 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10543 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10544 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10545 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10546
10547 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10548 was larger than the MD block size.
10549 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10550
10551 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10552 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10553 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10554 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10555 components.
10556 [Steve Henson]
10557
10558 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10559 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10560 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10561
10562 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10563 discouraged.
10564 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10565
10566 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10567 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10568 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10569 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10570 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10571 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10572
10573 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10574 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10575
10576 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10577 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10578 [Bodo Moeller]
10579
10580 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10581 [Bodo Moeller]
10582
10583 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10584 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10585 its own key.
10586 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10587 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10588 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10589 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10590 [Bodo Moeller]
10591
10592 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10593 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10594 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10595 does not suppress any output.
10596 [Richard Levitte]
10597
10598 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10599 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10600 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10601 with all the associated security issues.
10602
10603 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10604 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10605 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10606 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10607 use the value in the default purpose.
10608 [Steve Henson]
10609
10610 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10611 and fix a memory leak.
10612 [Steve Henson]
10613
10614 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10615 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10616 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10617 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10618 [Bodo Moeller]
10619
10620 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10621 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10622 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10623 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10624 [Bodo Moeller]
10625
10626 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10627 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10628 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10629 [Bodo Moeller]
10630
10631 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10632 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10633 [Bodo Moeller]
10634
10635 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10636 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10637 which was free.
10638 [Steve Henson]
10639
10640 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10641 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10642 [Bodo Moeller]
10643
10644 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10645 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10646 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10647 [Bodo Moeller]
10648
10649 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10650 number generation fails.
10651 [Bodo Moeller]
10652
10653 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10654 [Bodo Moeller]
10655
10656 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10657 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10658
10659 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10660 [Ulf Möller]
10661
10662 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10663 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10664
10665 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10666 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10667
10668 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10669
10670 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10671 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10672 [Steve Henson]
10673
10674 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10675 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10676
10677 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10678 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10679 [Ulf Möller]
10680
10681 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10682 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10683 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10684 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10685 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10686 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10687
10688 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10689 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10690 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10691 for example.
10692 [Steve Henson]
10693
10694 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10695 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10696 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10697 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10698 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10699 counter, some don't.)
10700 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10701 counters or duplicate objects.
10702 [Steve Henson]
10703
10704 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10705 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10706 [Steve Henson]
10707
10708 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10709 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10710 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10711
10712 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10713 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10714 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10715 or -rand.
10716 [Ulf Möller]
10717
10718 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10719 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10720 [Steve Henson]
10721
10722 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10723 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10724 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10725 cipher list.
10726 [Steve Henson]
10727
10728 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10729 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10730 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10731 [Steve Henson]
10732
10733 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10734 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10735 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10736 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10737 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10738 should work without changes.
10739 [Richard Levitte]
10740
10741 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10742 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10743 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10744 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10745 must be defined. E.g.,
10746 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10747 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10748 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10749 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10750
10751 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10752 record layer.
10753 [Bodo Moeller]
10754
10755 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10756 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10757 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10758 [Steve Henson]
10759
10760 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10761 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10762 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10763 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10764 [Steve Henson]
10765
10766 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10767 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10768 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10769 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10770 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10771 is prompted for as usual.
10772 [Steve Henson]
10773
10774 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10775 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10776 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10777 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10778
10779 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10780 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10781 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10782 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10783 [Steve Henson]
10784
10785 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10786 [Andy Polyakov]
10787
10788 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10789 of seed file.
10790 [Steve Henson]
10791
10792 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10793 [Bodo Moeller]
10794
10795 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10796 [Steve Henson]
10797
10798 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10799 bits.
10800 [Ulf Möller]
10801
10802 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10803 [Ulf Möller]
10804
10805 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10806 [Andy Polyakov]
10807
10808 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10809 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10810 [Ulf Möller]
10811
10812 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10813 options to produce them.
10814 [Steve Henson]
10815
10816 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10817 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10818 [Ulf Möller]
10819
10820 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10821 for p == 0.
10822 [Ulf Möller]
10823
10824 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10825 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10826 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10827 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10828 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10829 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10830 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10831 [Steve Henson]
10832
10833 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10834 [Steve Henson]
10835
10836 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10837 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10838 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10839 [Bodo Moeller]
10840
10841 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10842 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10843
10844 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10845 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10846 [Ulf Möller]
10847
10848 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10849 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10850 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10851 has already seen).
10852 [Bodo Moeller]
10853
10854 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10855 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10856
10857 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10858 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10859 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10860 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10861 generation becomes much faster.
10862
10863 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10864 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10865 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10866 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10867 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10868 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10869 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10870 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10871 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10872 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10873 [Bodo Moeller]
10874
10875 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10876 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10877 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10878 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10879 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10880 trial division stage.
10881 [Bodo Moeller]
10882
10883 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10884 as ASN1_TIME.
10885 [Steve Henson]
10886
10887 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10888 [Steve Henson]
10889
10890 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10891 [Ulf Möller]
10892
10893 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10894 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10895 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10896 the comments.
10897 [Ulf Möller]
10898
10899 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10900 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10901 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10902 [Bodo Moeller]
10903
10904 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10905 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10906 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10907 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10908
10909 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10910 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10911 [Steve Henson]
10912
10913 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10914 [Ulf Möller]
10915
10916 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10917 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10918 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10919 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10920 [Ulf Möller]
10921
10922 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
10923 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
10924 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
10925 [Ulf Möller]
10926
10927 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
10928 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
10929 (instead of parameters) in future.
10930 [Steve Henson]
10931
10932 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
10933 when a new cipher list is set.
10934 [Steve Henson]
10935
10936 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
10937 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
10938 wrong.
10939
10940 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
10941 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
10942 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
10943
10944 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
10945 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
10946 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
10947 an error is flagged.
10948
10949 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
10950 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
10951 the readability was also increased :-)
10952 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10953
10954 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
10955 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
10956 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
10957 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
10958 as the root CA.
10959 [Steve Henson]
10960
10961 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
10962 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
10963 [Steve Henson]
10964
10965 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
10966 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
10967 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
10968 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
10969 instead.
10970
10971 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
10972 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
10973 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
10974 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
10975 because they handle more complex structures.)
10976 [Steve Henson]
10977
10978 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10979 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10980 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10981 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10982
10983 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10984 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10985 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10986 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10987 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10988 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10989 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10990 [Ulf Möller]
10991
10992 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
10993 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
10994 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
10995 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
10996 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
10997 [Bodo Moeller]
10998
10999 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
11000 [Bodo Moeller]
11001
11002 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
11003 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
11004 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
11005 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
11006 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
11007 to use this.
11008
11009 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
11010 code.
11011 [Steve Henson]
11012
11013 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
11014 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
11015 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
11016 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
11017 [Steve Henson]
11018
11019 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
11020 [Ulf Möller]
11021
11022 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
11023 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
11024 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
11025 international characters are used.
11026
11027 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
11028 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
11029 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
11030 in ASN1 order.
11031 [Steve Henson]
11032
11033 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
11034 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
11035 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
11036 request.
11037
11038 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
11039 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
11040 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
11041 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
11042 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
11043 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
11044
11045 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
11046 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
11047 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
11048 be handled by the string table functions.
11049
11050 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
11051 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
11052 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
11053 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
11054 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
11055 types at all.
11056 [Steve Henson]
11057
11058 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
11059 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
11060 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
11061 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
11062 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
11063
11064 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
11065 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
11066 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
11067 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
11068 [Bodo Moeller]
11069
11070 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
11071 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
11072 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
11073 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
11074 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
11075 SHA1.
11076 [Andy Polyakov]
11077
11078 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
11079 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
11080 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
11081 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
11082 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
11083 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
11084 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
11085 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
11086
11087 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
11088 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
11089 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
11090 [Steve Henson]
11091
11092 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
11093 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
11094 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
11095 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
11096 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
11097 support to pkcs8 application.
11098 [Steve Henson]
11099
11100 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
11101 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
11102 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
11103 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
11104 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
11105 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
11106 [Bodo Moeller]
11107
11108 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
11109 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
11110 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
11111 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
11112 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
11113 consistency.
11114 [Bodo Moeller]
11115
11116 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
11117 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
11118 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
11119 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
11120 example.
11121 [Steve Henson]
11122
11123 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
11124 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
11125 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
11126 and any application specific purposes.
11127
11128 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
11129 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
11130 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
11131 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
11132 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
11133 if the certificate is self signed.
11134 [Steve Henson]
11135
11136 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
11137 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
11138 [Steve Henson]
11139
11140 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
11141 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
11142 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
11143 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
11144 [Steve Henson]
11145
11146 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
11147 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
11148 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
11149 Update documentation.
11150 [Steve Henson]
11151
11152 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
11153 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
11154 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
11155 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
11156 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
11157 [Steve Henson]
11158
11159 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
11160 for details.
11161 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
11162
11163 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
11164 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
11165 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
11166 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
11167 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
11168 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
11169 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
11170 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
11171 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
11172 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
11173
11174 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
11175
11176 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11177 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
11178 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
11179 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
11180 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
11181
11182 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
11183 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
11184 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
11185 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
11186 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
11187 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
11188 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
11189 request additional information:
11190 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
11191 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
11192
11193 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
11194 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
11195 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
11196 options.
11197
11198 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
11199 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
11200
11201 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
11202 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
11203 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
11204
11205 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
11206 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
11207
11208 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
11209 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
11210 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
11211 algorithm.
11212 [Steve Henson]
11213
11214 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
11215 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
11216 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
11217
11218 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
11219 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
11220 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
11221 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
11222 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
11223 included in OpenSSL.
11224 [Steve Henson]
11225
11226 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
11227 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
11228 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
11229 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
11230 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
11231 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
11232 [Bodo Moeller]
11233
11234 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
11235 PKCS12 structure.
11236 [Steve Henson]
11237
11238 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
11239 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
11240 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
11241 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
11242 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
11243 structure.
11244 [Steve Henson]
11245
11246 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
11247 need initialising.
11248 [Steve Henson]
11249
11250 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
11251 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
11252 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
11253 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
11254 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
11255 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
11256 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
11257 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
11258 be maintained manually.
11259
11260 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
11261 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
11262 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
11263 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
11264 work because people forget to call this function]
11265 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11266 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11267 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11268 [Steve Henson]
11269
11270 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11271 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11272 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11273 should be discouraged from doing it.
11274 [Ben Laurie]
11275
11276 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11277 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11278 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11279 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11280 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11281 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11282 [Steve Henson]
11283
11284 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11285 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11286 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11287
11288 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11289 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11290 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11291
11292 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11293 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11294 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11295 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11296 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11297 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11298
11299 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11300 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11301 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11302
11303 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11304 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11305 and vice versa.
11306
11307 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11308 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11309 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11310 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11311 [Steve Henson]
11312
11313 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11314 [Steve Henson]
11315
11316 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11317 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11318 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11319 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11320 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11321 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11322 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11323 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11324 keys so we should be OK.
11325
11326 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11327 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11328 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11329 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11330 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11331 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11332 stay in the name of compatibility.
11333
11334 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11335 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11336 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11337
11338 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11339 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11340 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11341 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11342 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11343 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11344 supplied key).
11345 [Steve Henson]
11346
11347 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11348 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11349 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11350 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11351 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11352 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11353 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11354 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11355 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11356 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11357 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11358 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11359 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11360 [Steve Henson]
11361
11362 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11363 [Steve Henson]
11364
11365 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11366 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11367 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11368 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11369 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11370 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11371 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11372 openssl verify ss.pem
11373 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11374 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11375 is OK.
11376 [Steve Henson]
11377
11378 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11379 (and add it to external session representation).
11380 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11381 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11382 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11383 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11384 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11385 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11386 security holes.
11387 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11388
11389 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11390 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11391 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11392 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11393
11394 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11395 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11396 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11397 [Steve Henson]
11398
11399 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11400 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11401 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11402 code.
11403 [Steve Henson]
11404
11405 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11406 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11407 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11408
11409 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11410 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11411 certificate auxiliary information.
11412 [Steve Henson]
11413
11414 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11415 the 'enc' command.
11416 [Steve Henson]
11417
11418 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11419 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11420 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11421 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11422 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11423 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11424 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11425 [Richard Levitte]
11426
11427 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11428 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11429 [Steve Henson]
11430
11431 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11432 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11433 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11434 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11435 [Steve Henson]
11436
11437 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11438 [Steve Henson]
11439
11440 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11441 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11442 [Steve Henson]
11443
11444 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11445 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11446 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11447 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11448 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11449 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11450 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11451 using the new 'x509' options.
11452
11453 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11454 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11455 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11456 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11457 for all purposes.
11458 [Steve Henson]
11459
11460 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11461 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11462 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11463 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11464 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11465 [Mark Cox]
11466
11467 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11468 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11469 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11470 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11471 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11472 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11473 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11474 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11475 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11476 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11477 [Steve Henson]
11478
11479 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11480 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11481 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11482 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11483 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11484 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11485 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11486 [Steve Henson]
11487
11488 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11489 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11490 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11491 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11492 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11493 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11494 openssl.cnf for more info.
11495 [Steve Henson]
11496
11497 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11498 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11499 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11500 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11501 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11502 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11503 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11504 md should be large enough anyway.
11505 [Bodo Moeller]
11506
11507 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11508 for handling the random seed file.
11509
11510 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11511 ca,
11512 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11513 s_client,
11514 s_server,
11515 x509 (when signing).
11516 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11517 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11518 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11519
11520 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11521 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11522 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11523 that support '-rand'.
11524 [Bodo Moeller]
11525
11526 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11527 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11528 [Bodo Moeller]
11529
11530 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11531 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11532 [Bill Perry]
11533
11534 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11535 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11536 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11537 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11538 is suitable.
11539 [Steve Henson]
11540
11541 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11542 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11543 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11544 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11545 [Steve Henson]
11546
11547 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11548 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11549 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11550 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11551 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11552 print out all the purposes.
11553 [Steve Henson]
11554
11555 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11556 functions.
11557 [Steve Henson]
11558
11559 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11560 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11561 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11562 single function call.
11563 [Steve Henson]
11564
11565 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11566 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11567 [Andy Polyakov]
11568
11569 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11570 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11571 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11572 [Steve Henson]
11573
11574 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11575 when producing the local key id.
11576 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11577
11578 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11579 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11580 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11581 "server.pem".
11582 [Steve Henson]
11583
11584 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11585 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11586 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11587 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11588 [Steve Henson]
11589
11590 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11591 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11592 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11593 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11594
11595 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11596 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11597 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11598 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11599
11600 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11601 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11602 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11603 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11604 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11605 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11606 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11607 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11608 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11609 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11610 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11611 trivial: move one line.
11612 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11613
11614 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11615 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11616 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11617 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11618 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11619 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11620 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11621 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11622 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11623 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11624 with an event loop for example.
11625 [Steve Henson]
11626
11627 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11628 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11629 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11630 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11631 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11632 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11633 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11634 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11635 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11636 [Steve Henson]
11637
11638 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11639 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11640 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11641 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11642 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11643 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11644 [Steve Henson]
11645
11646 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11647 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11648 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11649 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11650
11651 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11652 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11653 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11654 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11655 key generation.
11656 [Steve Henson]
11657
11658 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11659 (still largely untested)
11660 [Bodo Moeller]
11661
11662 *) New function ASN1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11663 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11664 [Steve Henson]
11665
11666 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11667 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11668 [Steve Henson]
11669
11670 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11671 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11672 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11673 [Bodo Moeller]
11674
11675 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11676 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11677 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11678 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11679 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11680 [Steve Henson]
11681
11682 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11683 [Andy Polyakov]
11684
11685 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11686 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11687 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11688 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11689 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11690 in ca.
11691 [Steve Henson]
11692
11693 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11694 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11695 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11696 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11697 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11698 [Steve Henson]
11699
11700 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11701 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11702 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11703 are otherwise ignored at present.
11704 [Steve Henson]
11705
11706 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11707 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11708 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11709 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11710 copied until the next read.
11711 [Steve Henson]
11712
11713 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11714 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11715 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11716 [Steve Henson]
11717
11718 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11719 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11720 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11721 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11722 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11723 associated functions.
11724 [Steve Henson]
11725
11726 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11727 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11728 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11729 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11730 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11731 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11732 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11733 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11734 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11735 memory BIOs.
11736 [Steve Henson]
11737
11738 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11739 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11740 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11741 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11742 [Bodo Moeller]
11743
11744 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11745 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11746 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11747 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11748 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11749 functionality.
11750 [Steve Henson]
11751
11752 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11753 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11754 under Win32.
11755 [Steve Henson]
11756
11757 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11758 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11759 extensions to be obtained and added.
11760 [Steve Henson]
11761
11762 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11763 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11764 [Bodo Moeller]
11765
11766 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11767
11768 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11769 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11770
11771 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11772 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11773
11774 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11775 program.
11776 [Steve Henson]
11777
11778 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11779 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11780 DH parameters contain its length).
11781
11782 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11783 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11784 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11785 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11786 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11787 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11788 utter importance to use
11789 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11790 or
11791 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11792 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11793 attacks may become possible!
11794 [Bodo Moeller]
11795
11796 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11797 [Bodo Moeller]
11798
11799 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11800 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11801 [Steve Henson]
11802
11803 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11804 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11805 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11806 or long name.
11807 [Steve Henson]
11808
11809 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11810 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11811 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11812 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11813 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11814 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11815 private key operations.
11816 [Steve Henson]
11817
11818 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11819 [Andy Polyakov]
11820
11821 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11822 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11823 to
11824 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11825 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11826 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11827 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11828 the password callback is called.
11829 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11830
11831 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11832
11833 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11834 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11835 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11836 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11837 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11838 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11839 this will work.
11840
11841 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11842 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11843 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11844 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11845 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11846 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11847 [Bodo Moeller]
11848
11849 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11850 [Andy Polyakov]
11851
11852 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11853 delete an unused file.
11854 [Ulf Möller]
11855
11856 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11857 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11858 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11859 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11860 [Steve Henson]
11861
11862 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11863 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11864 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11865 of an error.
11866 [Bodo Moeller]
11867
11868 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11869 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11870 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11871
11872 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11873 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11874 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11875 comparison" warnings.
11876 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11877 [Steve Henson]
11878
11879 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11880 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11881 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11882 [Steve Henson]
11883
11884 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11885 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11886
11887 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11888 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11889
11890 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11891 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11892 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11893
11894 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11895 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11896 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11897 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11898 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11899 this bug.
11900 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11901
11902 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11903 The interface is as follows:
11904 Applications can use
11905 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11906 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11907 "off" is now the default.
11908 The library internally uses
11909 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11910 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11911 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11912
11913 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11914 even the default) are now avoided.
11915
11916 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11917 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11918 than just having a counter.
11919
11920 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11921
11922 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
11923 extensions.
11924 [Bodo Moeller]
11925
11926 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
11927 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
11928 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
11929 Initial "mode" flags are:
11930
11931 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
11932 a single record has been written.
11933 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
11934 retries use the same buffer location.
11935 (But all of the contents must be
11936 copied!)
11937 [Bodo Moeller]
11938
11939 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
11940 worked.
11941
11942 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
11943 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
11944
11945 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
11946 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
11947 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
11948 [Steve Henson]
11949
11950 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
11951 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
11952 test programs.
11953 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
11954
11955 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
11956 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
11957 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
11958 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
11959 point to the end.
11960 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
11961 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
11962
11963 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
11964 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
11965 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
11966 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
11967 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
11968 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
11969 [Steve Henson]
11970
11971 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
11972 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
11973 necessary function names.
11974 [Steve Henson]
11975
11976 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11977 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11978 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11979 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11980 [Bodo Moeller]
11981
11982 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11983 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11984 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11985 [Steve Henson]
11986
11987 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11988 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11989 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11990 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11991 such programs?)
11992 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
11993 need locks.
11994 [Bodo Moeller]
11995
11996 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
11997 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
11998 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
11999 [Bodo Moeller]
12000
12001 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
12002 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
12003 appropriate.
12004 [Bodo Moeller]
12005
12006 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
12007 for the encoded length.
12008 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
12009
12010 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
12011 [Steve Henson]
12012
12013 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
12014 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
12015 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
12016 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
12017 [Steve Henson]
12018
12019 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
12020 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
12021 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12022
12023 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
12024 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
12025 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
12026 unusual formatting.
12027 [Steve Henson]
12028
12029 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
12030 to use the new extension code.
12031 [Steve Henson]
12032
12033 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
12034 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
12035 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
12036 constant.
12037 [Steve Henson]
12038
12039 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
12040 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
12041 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
12042 [Bodo Moeller]
12043
12044 #if 0
12045 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
12046 [Ben Laurie]
12047 #else
12048 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
12049 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
12050 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
12051 #endif
12052
12053 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
12054 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
12055 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
12056 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
12057 [Ben Laurie]
12058
12059 *) DES library cleanups.
12060 [Ulf Möller]
12061
12062 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
12063 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
12064 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
12065 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
12066 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
12067 of v2.0.
12068 [Steve Henson]
12069
12070 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
12071 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
12072 [Bodo Moeller]
12073
12074 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
12075 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
12076 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
12077 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
12078 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
12079 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
12080 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
12081 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
12082 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
12083 [Steve Henson]
12084
12085 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
12086 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
12087 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
12088 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
12089 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
12090 value doesn't matter.
12091 [Steve Henson]
12092
12093 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
12094 support mutable.
12095 [Ben Laurie]
12096
12097 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
12098 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
12099 "linux-sparc" configuration.
12100 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
12101
12102 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
12103 [Ulf Möller]
12104
12105 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
12106 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
12107 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12108
12109 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
12110 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
12111
12112 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
12113 [Ben Laurie]
12114
12115 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
12116 [Ben Laurie]
12117
12118 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
12119 [Ben Laurie]
12120
12121 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
12122 [Bodo Moeller]
12123
12124
12125 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
12126
12127 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
12128
12129 *) Updated some demos.
12130 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
12131
12132 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
12133 [Wu Zhigang]
12134
12135 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
12136 [Steve Henson]
12137
12138 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
12139 [Steve Henson]
12140
12141 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
12142 instead of using a fixed path.
12143 [Bodo Moeller]
12144
12145 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
12146 [Andy Polyakov]
12147
12148 *) Improvements for VMS support.
12149 [Richard Levitte]
12150
12151
12152 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
12153
12154 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
12155 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
12156 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12157
12158 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
12159 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
12160 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
12161 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
12162 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
12163 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
12164 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
12165 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
12166 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
12167 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
12168 [Steve Henson]
12169
12170 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
12171 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
12172 [Steve Henson]
12173
12174 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
12175 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
12176 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
12177 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
12178 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
12179
12180 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
12181 [Bodo Moeller]
12182
12183 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
12184 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
12185 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
12186 [Steve Henson]
12187
12188 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
12189 [Ben Laurie]
12190
12191 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
12192 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
12193 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
12194 key elements as negative integers.
12195 [Steve Henson]
12196
12197 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
12198 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12199
12200 *) VMS support.
12201 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
12202
12203 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
12204 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
12205 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
12206 [Steve Henson]
12207
12208 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
12209 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
12210 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
12211 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
12212 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
12213 [Bodo Moeller]
12214
12215 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
12216 [Ulf Möller]
12217
12218 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
12219 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
12220 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
12221 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12222
12223 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
12224 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
12225 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
12226
12227 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
12228 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
12229 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
12230 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
12231 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
12232 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
12233 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
12234 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
12235 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
12236
12237 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
12238 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
12239 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
12240 does not influence s as it used to.
12241
12242 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
12243 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
12244 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
12245 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
12246 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
12247 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
12248 [Bodo Moeller]
12249
12250 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
12251 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
12252 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
12253 key type.
12254 [Steve Henson]
12255
12256 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
12257 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
12258 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
12259 and 'x509').
12260 [Steve Henson]
12261
12262 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
12263 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
12264 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12265 extension option.
12266 [Steve Henson]
12267
12268 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12269 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12270 [Ben Laurie]
12271
12272 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12273 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12274
12275 *) Support Mingw32.
12276 [Ulf Möller]
12277
12278 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12279 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12280
12281 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12282 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12283
12284 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12285 [Ulf Möller]
12286
12287 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12288 [Anonymous]
12289
12290 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12291 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12292
12293 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12294 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12295 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12296 DER-encoded.)
12297 [Bodo Moeller]
12298
12299 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12300 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12301 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12302 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12303 now it really counts the depth.
12304 [Bodo Moeller]
12305
12306 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12307 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12308 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12309 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12310 didn't match the private key).
12311
12312 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12313 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12314 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12315 [Bodo Moeller]
12316
12317 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12318 [Ulf Möller]
12319
12320 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12321 David Harris.
12322 [Bodo Moeller]
12323
12324 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12325 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12326 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12327 [Bodo Moeller]
12328
12329 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12330 [Bodo Moeller]
12331
12332 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12333 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12334 such as /usr/local/bin.
12335 [Bodo Moeller]
12336
12337 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12338 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12339
12340 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12341 [Ulf Möller]
12342
12343 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12344 extension adding in x509 utility.
12345 [Steve Henson]
12346
12347 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12348 [Ulf Möller]
12349
12350 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12351 prototypes.
12352 [Steve Henson]
12353
12354 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12355 [Ulf Möller]
12356
12357 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12358 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12359 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12360 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12361 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12362 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12363 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12364 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12365 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12366 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12367 [Steve Henson]
12368
12369 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12370 [Bodo Moeller]
12371
12372 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12373 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12374 [Bodo Moeller]
12375
12376 *) Fix some race conditions.
12377 [Bodo Moeller]
12378
12379 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12380 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12381 [Steve Henson]
12382
12383 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12384 [Ulf Möller]
12385
12386 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12387 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12388 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12389 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12390
12391 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12392 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12393
12394 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12395 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12396 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12397
12398 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12399 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12400
12401 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12402 [Ulf Möller]
12403
12404 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12405 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12406
12407 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12408 [Ulf Möller]
12409
12410 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12411 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12412
12413 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12414 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12415 [Steve Henson]
12416
12417 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12418 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12419 [Ben Laurie]
12420
12421 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12422 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12423 [Steve Henson]
12424
12425 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12426 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12427 [Steve Henson]
12428
12429 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12430 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12431 [Steve Henson]
12432
12433 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12434 support typesafe stack.
12435 [Steve Henson]
12436
12437 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12438 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12439
12440 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12441 old X509V3 handling code.
12442 [Steve Henson]
12443
12444 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12445 [Ulf Möller]
12446
12447 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12448 [Bodo Moeller]
12449
12450 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12451 [Ben Laurie]
12452
12453 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12454 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12455
12456 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12457 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12458 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12459 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12460 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12461 [Ben Laurie]
12462
12463 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12464 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12465 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12466 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12467 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12468
12469 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12470 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12471 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12472 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12473
12474 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12475 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12476 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12477 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12478
12479 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12480 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12481 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12482 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12483 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12484 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12485 [Bodo Moeller]
12486
12487 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12488 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12489 [Bodo Moeller]
12490
12491 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12492 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12493 [Ulf Möller]
12494
12495 *) Tweaks to Configure
12496 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12497
12498 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12499 yet...
12500 [Steve Henson]
12501
12502 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12503 [Ulf Möller]
12504
12505 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12506 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12507 [Ulf Möller]
12508
12509 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12510 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12511 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12512 [Bodo Moeller]
12513
12514 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12515 [Bodo Moeller]
12516
12517 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12518 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12519 [Steve Henson]
12520
12521 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12522 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12523 to library startup routines.
12524 [Steve Henson]
12525
12526 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12527 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12528 codes along the way.
12529 [Steve Henson]
12530
12531 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12532 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12533 objects to objects.h
12534 [Steve Henson]
12535
12536 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12537 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12538 [Steve Henson]
12539
12540 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12541 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12542
12543 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12544 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12545 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12546
12547 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12548 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12549 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12550
12551 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12552 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12553 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12554
12555
12556 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12557
12558 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12559 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12560 [Ben Laurie]
12561
12562 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12563 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12564 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12565 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12566 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12567
12568 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12569 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12570 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12571 document.
12572 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12573
12574 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12575 Malloc, Free.
12576 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12577
12578 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12579 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12580
12581 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12582 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12583 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12584 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12585
12586 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12587 [Ben Laurie]
12588
12589 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12590 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12591 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12592 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12593 [Steve Henson]
12594
12595 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12596 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12597 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12598 [Steve Henson]
12599
12600 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12601 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12602 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12603 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12604 installed as `perl').
12605 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12606
12607 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12608 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12609
12610 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12611 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12612 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12613 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12614 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12615 [Steve Henson]
12616
12617 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12618 [Ben Laurie]
12619
12620 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12621 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12622 is horrible: I feel ill....
12623 [Steve Henson]
12624
12625 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12626 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12627 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12628 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12629 [Steve Henson]
12630
12631 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12632 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12633
12634 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12635 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12636 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12637 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12638
12639 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12640 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12641 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12642 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12643 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12644 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12645 openssl_bio.xs.
12646 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12647
12648 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12649 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12650
12651 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12652 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12653
12654 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12655 [Ben Laurie]
12656
12657 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12658 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12659 in CRLs.
12660 [Steve Henson]
12661
12662 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12663 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12664 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
12665 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12666 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12667 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12668 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12669 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12670 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12671 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12672 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12673
12674 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12675 [Ben Laurie]
12676
12677 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12678 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12679 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12680 for linking it into DSOs.
12681 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12682
12683 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12684 Fixed.
12685 [Ben Laurie]
12686
12687 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12688 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12689 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12690 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12691 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12692 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12693
12694 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12695 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12696 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12697 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12698 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12699 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12700 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12701
12702 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12703 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12704 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12705 encryption.
12706 [Ben Laurie]
12707
12708 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12709 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12710 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12711 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12712 [Steve Henson]
12713
12714 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12715 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12716 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12717 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12718 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12719 field as blank.
12720 [Steve Henson]
12721
12722 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12723 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12724 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12725 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12726 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12727
12728 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12729 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12730 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12731
12732 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12733 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12734
12735 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12736 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12737 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12738 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12739 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12740 [Steve Henson]
12741
12742 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12743 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12744 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12745 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12746 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12747 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12748 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12749 [Ben Laurie]
12750
12751 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12752 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12753 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12754 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12755 [Ben Laurie]
12756
12757 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12758 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12759
12760 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12761 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12762 [Steve Henson]
12763
12764 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12765 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12766 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12767 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12768 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12769 (e.g. s_server).
12770 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12771 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12772 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12773 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12774 no way to reconfigure them.
12775 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12776 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12777 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12778 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12779 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12780 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12781
12782 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12783 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12784 recognized by the users.
12785 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12786
12787 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12788 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12789 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12790 already masked variable.
12791 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12792
12793 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12794 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12795
12796 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12797 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12798 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12799 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12800
12801 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12802 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12803 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12804
12805 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12806 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12807 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12808 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12809 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12810 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12811 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12812 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12813 now, too.
12814 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12815
12816 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12817 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12818 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12819
12820 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12821 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12822 config file.
12823 [Steve Henson]
12824
12825 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12826 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12827
12828 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12829 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12830 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12831 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12832 [Ben Laurie]
12833
12834 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12835 [Steve Henson]
12836
12837 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12838 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12839
12840 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12841 [Ben Laurie]
12842
12843 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12844 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12845 [Steve Henson]
12846
12847 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12848 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12849 [Steve Henson]
12850
12851 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12852 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12853 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12854 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12855 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12856 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12857 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12858 Ben Laurie]
12859
12860 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12861 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12862
12863 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12864 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12865 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12866 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12867 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12868
12869 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12870 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12871 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12872 [Steve Henson]
12873
12874 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12875 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12876 an example.
12877 [Steve Henson]
12878
12879 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12880 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12881 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12882
12883 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12884 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12885 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12886 build instructions.
12887 [Steve Henson]
12888
12889 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12890 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12891 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12892 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12893 [Steve Henson]
12894
12895 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12896 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12897 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12898 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12899 [Ben Laurie]
12900
12901 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12902 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12903 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12904 so it wasn't spotted.
12905 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12906
12907 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12908 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12909 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12910 vectors if you have them.
12911 [Ben Laurie]
12912
12913 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12914 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12915 [Ben Laurie]
12916
12917 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12918 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12919 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12920 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12921 If you do a:
12922 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
12923 it will update them.
12924 [Steve Henson]
12925
12926 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
12927 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
12928 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
12929 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
12930 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
12931 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
12932 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
12933 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12934
12935 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
12936 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
12937 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
12938 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
12939 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
12940 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
12941 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
12942 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
12943 the crypto/md/ stuff).
12944 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12945
12946 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
12947 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
12948 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
12949 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
12950 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
12951 [Steve Henson]
12952
12953 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
12954 INTEGER code.
12955 [Steve Henson]
12956
12957 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
12958 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12959
12960 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
12961 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12962
12963 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
12964 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
12965 [Ben Laurie]
12966
12967 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
12968 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
12969
12970 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
12971 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
12972
12973 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
12974 [Steve Henson]
12975
12976 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12977 few typos.
12978 [Steve Henson]
12979
12980 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12981 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12982 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12983 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12984
12985 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12986 [Steve Henson]
12987
12988 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12989 [Steve Henson]
12990
12991 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12992 [Steve Henson]
12993
12994 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
12995 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
12996 [Steve Henson]
12997
12998 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
12999 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
13000 CA extensions.
13001 [Steve Henson]
13002
13003 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
13004 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
13005 [Steve Henson]
13006
13007 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
13008 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
13009 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
13010 [Steve Henson]
13011
13012 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
13013 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
13014 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
13015 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
13016 properly to be processed.
13017 [Steve Henson]
13018
13019 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
13020 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
13021 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
13022 [Ben Laurie]
13023
13024 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
13025 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
13026
13027 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
13028 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
13029 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
13030 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
13031 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
13032 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
13033 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
13034 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
13035 or delete all the .err files.
13036 [Steve Henson]
13037
13038 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
13039 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
13040 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
13041 to regenerate it if needed.
13042 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
13043 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
13044
13045 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
13046 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13047
13048 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
13049 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
13050 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
13051 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
13052 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
13053 [Steve Henson]
13054
13055 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
13056 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13057
13058 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
13059 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13060
13061 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
13062 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
13063 error, but didn't set one).
13064 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13065
13066 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
13067 [Ben Laurie]
13068
13069 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
13070 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
13071 [Steve Henson]
13072
13073 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
13074 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
13075
13076 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
13077 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
13078 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
13079 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
13080 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
13081 OID is not part of the table.
13082 [Steve Henson]
13083
13084 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
13085 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
13086 [Ben Laurie]
13087
13088 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
13089 [Ben Laurie]
13090
13091 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
13092 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
13093 was "1234").
13094 [Steve Henson]
13095
13096 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
13097 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
13098
13099 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
13100 NULL pointers.
13101 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13102
13103 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
13104 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13105
13106 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
13107 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
13108
13109 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
13110 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
13111
13112 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
13113 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
13114 [Ben Laurie]
13115
13116 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
13117 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
13118 [Steve Henson]
13119
13120 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
13121 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13122
13123 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
13124 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13125
13126 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
13127 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13128
13129 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
13130 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
13131
13132 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
13133 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
13134 unused in the certificate verification process.
13135 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13136
13137 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
13138 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
13139 [Steve Henson]
13140
13141 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
13142 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
13143 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
13144
13145 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
13146 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
13147 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
13148 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
13149 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
13150
13151 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
13152 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
13153 [Steve Henson]
13154
13155 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
13156 [Steve Henson]
13157
13158 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
13159 [Paul Sutton]
13160
13161 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
13162 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
13163
13164 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
13165 [Ben Laurie]
13166
13167 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
13168 [Ben Laurie]
13169
13170 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
13171 [Ben Laurie]
13172
13173 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
13174 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
13175 other error libraries.
13176 [Steve Henson]
13177
13178 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
13179 [Steve Henson]
13180
13181 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
13182 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
13183 be read in.
13184 [Steve Henson]
13185
13186 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
13187 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
13188 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
13189 the new set of documentation files.
13190 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13191
13192 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
13193 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
13194 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
13195 number of arguments.
13196 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
13197
13198 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
13199 [Ben Laurie]
13200
13201 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
13202 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
13203 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
13204
13205 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
13206 [Ben Laurie]
13207
13208 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
13209 nextstep
13210 ncr-scde
13211 unixware-2.0
13212 unixware-2.0-pentium
13213 sco5-cc.
13214 [Ben Laurie]
13215
13216 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
13217 before they are needed.
13218 [Ben Laurie]
13219
13220 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
13221 [Ben Laurie]
13222
13223
13224 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
13225
13226 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
13227 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
13228 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13229
13230 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
13231 [Paul Sutton]
13232
13233 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
13234 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
13235 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13236
13237 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
13238 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
13239 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
13240
13241 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
13242 when "ssleay" is still not found.
13243 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13244
13245 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
13246 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
13247
13248 *) Updated the README file.
13249 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13250
13251 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
13252 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
13253 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13254
13255 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
13256 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
13257 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13258
13259 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
13260 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
13261 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
13262 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
13263 o removed obsolete TODO file
13264 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13265 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13266
13267 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13268 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13269 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13270 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
13271 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
13272 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13273 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13274
13275 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13276 [Mark J. Cox]
13277
13278 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13279 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13280 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
13281 summer 1998.
13282 [The OpenSSL Project]
13283
13284
13285 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
13286
13287 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
