10 Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
11
12 *) AES-XTS mode now enforces that its two keys are different to mitigate
13 the attacked described in "Efficient Instantiations of Tweakable
14 Blockciphers and Refinements to Modes OCB and PMAC" by Phillip Rogaway.
15 Details of this attack can be obtained from:
16 http://web.cs.ucdavis.edu/%7Erogaway/papers/offsets.pdf
17 [Paul Dale]
18
19 *) Rename the object files, i.e. give them other names than in previous
20 versions. Their names now include the name of the final product, as
21 well as its type mnemonic (bin, lib, shlib).
22 [Richard Levitte]
23
24 Changes between 1.1.0i and 1.1.1 [11 Sep 2018]
25
26 *) Add a new ClientHello callback. Provides a callback interface that gives
27 the application the ability to adjust the nascent SSL object at the
28 earliest stage of ClientHello processing, immediately after extensions have
29 been collected but before they have been processed. In particular, this
30 callback can adjust the supported TLS versions in response to the contents
31 of the ClientHello
32 [Benjamin Kaduk]
33
34 *) Add SM2 base algorithm support.
35 [Jack Lloyd]
36
37 *) s390x assembly pack: add (improved) hardware-support for the following
38 cryptographic primitives: sha3, shake, aes-gcm, aes-ccm, aes-ctr, aes-ofb,
39 aes-cfb/cfb8, aes-ecb.
40 [Patrick Steuer]
41
42 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
43 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
44 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
45 [Richard Levitte]
46
47 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
48 step for prime curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
49 differential addition-and-doubling in homogeneous projective coordinates
50 from Izu-Takagi "A fast parallel elliptic curve multiplication resistant
51 against side channel attacks" and Brier-Joye "Weierstrass Elliptic Curves
52 and Side-Channel Attacks" Eq. (8) for y-coordinate recovery, modified
53 to work in projective coordinates.
54 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri]
55
56 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
57 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
58 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
59 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
60 to 2^-128.
61 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
62
63 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
64 [Kurt Roeckx]
65
66 *) The 'tsget' script is renamed to 'tsget.pl', to avoid confusion when
67 moving between systems, and to avoid confusion when a Windows build is
68 done with mingw vs with MSVC. For POSIX installs, there's still a
69 symlink or copy named 'tsget' to avoid that confusion as well.
70 [Richard Levitte]
71
72 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
73 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
74 [Andy Polyakov]
75
76 *) Use the new ec_scalar_mul_ladder scaffold to implement a specialized ladder
77 step for binary curves. The new implementation is based on formulae from
78 differential addition-and-doubling in mixed Lopez-Dahab projective
79 coordinates, modified to independently blind the operands.
80 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
81
82 *) Add a scaffold to optionally enhance the Montgomery ladder implementation
83 for `ec_scalar_mul_ladder` (formerly `ec_mul_consttime`) allowing
84 EC_METHODs to implement their own specialized "ladder step", to take
85 advantage of more favorable coordinate systems or more efficient
86 differential addition-and-doubling algorithms.
87 [Billy Bob Brumley, Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri]
88
89 *) Modified the random device based seed sources to keep the relevant
90 file descriptors open rather than reopening them on each access.
91 This allows such sources to operate in a chroot() jail without
92 the associated device nodes being available. This behaviour can be
93 controlled using RAND_keep_random_devices_open().
94 [Paul Dale]
95
96 *) Numerous side-channel attack mitigations have been applied. This may have
97 performance impacts for some algorithms for the benefit of improved
98 security. Specific changes are noted in this change log by their respective
99 authors.
100 [Matt Caswell]
101
102 *) AIX shared library support overhaul. Switch to AIX "natural" way of
103 handling shared libraries, which means collecting shared objects of
104 different versions and bitnesses in one common archive. This allows to
105 mitigate conflict between 1.0 and 1.1 side-by-side installations. It
106 doesn't affect the way 3rd party applications are linked, only how
107 multi-version installation is managed.
108 [Andy Polyakov]
109
110 *) Make ec_group_do_inverse_ord() more robust and available to other
111 EC cryptosystems, so that irrespective of BN_FLG_CONSTTIME, SCA
112 mitigations are applied to the fallback BN_mod_inverse().
113 When using this function rather than BN_mod_inverse() directly, new
114 EC cryptosystem implementations are then safer-by-default.
115 [Billy Bob Brumley]
116
117 *) Add coordinate blinding for EC_POINT and implement projective
118 coordinate blinding for generic prime curves as a countermeasure to
119 chosen point SCA attacks.
120 [Sohaib ul Hassan, Nicola Tuveri, Billy Bob Brumley]
121
122 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
123 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
124 [Matt Caswell]
125
126 *) Enforce checking in the pkeyutl command line app to ensure that the input
127 length does not exceed the maximum supported digest length when performing
128 a sign, verify or verifyrecover operation.
129 [Matt Caswell]
130
131 *) SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY is enabled by default. Applications that use blocking
132 I/O in combination with something like select() or poll() will hang. This
133 can be turned off again using SSL_CTX_clear_mode().
134 Many applications do not properly handle non-application data records, and
135 TLS 1.3 sends more of such records. Setting SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY works
136 around the problems in those applications, but can also break some.
137 It's recommended to read the manpages about SSL_read(), SSL_write(),
138 SSL_get_error(), SSL_shutdown(), SSL_CTX_set_mode() and
139 SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead() again.
140 [Kurt Roeckx]
141
142 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
143 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
144 [Richard Levitte]
145
146 *) Apply blinding to binary field modular inversion and remove patent
147 pending (OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV) BN_GF2m_mod_div implementation.
148 [Billy Bob Brumley]
149
150 *) Deprecate ec2_mult.c and unify scalar multiplication code paths for
151 binary and prime elliptic curves.
152 [Billy Bob Brumley]
153
154 *) Remove ECDSA nonce padding: EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for
155 constant time fixed point multiplication.
156 [Billy Bob Brumley]
157
158 *) Revise elliptic curve scalar multiplication with timing attack
159 defenses: ec_wNAF_mul redirects to a constant time implementation
160 when computing fixed point and variable point multiplication (which
161 in OpenSSL are mostly used with secret scalars in keygen, sign,
162 ECDH derive operations).
163 [Billy Bob Brumley, Nicola Tuveri, Cesar Pereida García,
164 Sohaib ul Hassan]
165
166 *) Updated CONTRIBUTING
167 [Rich Salz]
168
169 *) Updated DRBG / RAND to request nonce and additional low entropy
170 randomness from the system.
171 [Matthias St. Pierre]
172
173 *) Updated 'openssl rehash' to use OpenSSL consistent default.
174 [Richard Levitte]
175
176 *) Moved the load of the ssl_conf module to libcrypto, which helps
177 loading engines that libssl uses before libssl is initialised.
178 [Matt Caswell]
179
180 *) Added EVP_PKEY_sign() and EVP_PKEY_verify() for EdDSA
181 [Matt Caswell]
182
183 *) Fixed X509_NAME_ENTRY_set to get multi-valued RDNs right in all cases.
184 [Ingo Schwarze, Rich Salz]
185
186 *) Added output of accepting IP address and port for 'openssl s_server'
187 [Richard Levitte]
188
189 *) Added a new API for TLSv1.3 ciphersuites:
190 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites()
191 SSL_set_ciphersuites()
192 [Matt Caswell]
193
194 *) Memory allocation failures consistenly add an error to the error
195 stack.
196 [Rich Salz]
197
198 *) Don't use OPENSSL_ENGINES and OPENSSL_CONF environment values
199 in libcrypto when run as setuid/setgid.
200 [Bernd Edlinger]
201
202 *) Load any config file by default when libssl is used.
203 [Matt Caswell]
204
205 *) Added new public header file <openssl/rand_drbg.h> and documentation
206 for the RAND_DRBG API. See manual page RAND_DRBG(7) for an overview.
207 [Matthias St. Pierre]
208
209 *) QNX support removed (cannot find contributors to get their approval
210 for the license change).
211 [Rich Salz]
212
213 *) TLSv1.3 replay protection for early data has been implemented. See the
214 SSL_read_early_data() man page for further details.
215 [Matt Caswell]
216
217 *) Separated TLSv1.3 ciphersuite configuration out from TLSv1.2 ciphersuite
218 configuration. TLSv1.3 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.2 and
219 below. Similarly TLSv1.2 ciphersuites are not compatible with TLSv1.3.
220 In order to avoid issues where legacy TLSv1.2 ciphersuite configuration
221 would otherwise inadvertently disable all TLSv1.3 ciphersuites the
222 configuration has been separated out. See the ciphers man page or the
223 SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites() man page for more information.
224 [Matt Caswell]
225
226 *) On POSIX (BSD, Linux, ...) systems the ocsp(1) command running
227 in responder mode now supports the new "-multi" option, which
228 spawns the specified number of child processes to handle OCSP
229 requests. The "-timeout" option now also limits the OCSP
230 responder's patience to wait to receive the full client request
231 on a newly accepted connection. Child processes are respawned
232 as needed, and the CA index file is automatically reloaded
233 when changed. This makes it possible to run the "ocsp" responder
234 as a long-running service, making the OpenSSL CA somewhat more
235 feature-complete. In this mode, most diagnostic messages logged
236 after entering the event loop are logged via syslog(3) rather than
237 written to stderr.
238 [Viktor Dukhovni]
239
240 *) Added support for X448 and Ed448. Heavily based on original work by
241 Mike Hamburg.
242 [Matt Caswell]
243
244 *) Extend OSSL_STORE with capabilities to search and to narrow the set of
245 objects loaded. This adds the functions OSSL_STORE_expect() and
246 OSSL_STORE_find() as well as needed tools to construct searches and
247 get the search data out of them.
248 [Richard Levitte]
249
250 *) Support for TLSv1.3 added. Note that users upgrading from an earlier
251 version of OpenSSL should review their configuration settings to ensure
252 that they are still appropriate for TLSv1.3. For further information see:
253 https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/TLS1.3
254 [Matt Caswell]
255
256 *) Grand redesign of the OpenSSL random generator
257
258 The default RAND method now utilizes an AES-CTR DRBG according to
259 NIST standard SP 800-90Ar1. The new random generator is essentially
260 a port of the default random generator from the OpenSSL FIPS 2.0
261 object module. It is a hybrid deterministic random bit generator
262 using an AES-CTR bit stream and which seeds and reseeds itself
263 automatically using trusted system entropy sources.
264
265 Some of its new features are:
266 o Support for multiple DRBG instances with seed chaining.
267 o The default RAND method makes use of a DRBG.
268 o There is a public and private DRBG instance.
269 o The DRBG instances are fork-safe.
270 o Keep all global DRBG instances on the secure heap if it is enabled.
271 o The public and private DRBG instance are per thread for lock free
272 operation
273 [Paul Dale, Benjamin Kaduk, Kurt Roeckx, Rich Salz, Matthias St. Pierre]
274
275 *) Changed Configure so it only says what it does and doesn't dump
276 so much data. Instead, ./configdata.pm should be used as a script
277 to display all sorts of configuration data.
278 [Richard Levitte]
279
280 *) Added processing of "make variables" to Configure.
281 [Richard Levitte]
282
283 *) Added SHA512/224 and SHA512/256 algorithm support.
284 [Paul Dale]
285
286 *) The last traces of Netware support, first removed in 1.1.0, have
287 now been removed.
288 [Rich Salz]
289
290 *) Get rid of Makefile.shared, and in the process, make the processing
291 of certain files (rc.obj, or the .def/.map/.opt files produced from
292 the ordinal files) more visible and hopefully easier to trace and
293 debug (or make silent).
294 [Richard Levitte]
295
296 *) Make it possible to have environment variable assignments as
297 arguments to config / Configure.
298 [Richard Levitte]
299
300 *) Add multi-prime RSA (RFC 8017) support.
301 [Paul Yang]
302
303 *) Add SM3 implemented according to GB/T 32905-2016
304 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
305 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
306 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
307
308 *) Add 'Maximum Fragment Length' TLS extension negotiation and support
309 as documented in RFC6066.
310 Based on a patch from Tomasz Moń
311 [Filipe Raimundo da Silva]
312
313 *) Add SM4 implemented according to GB/T 32907-2016.
314 [ Jack Lloyd <jack.lloyd@ribose.com>,
315 Ronald Tse <ronald.tse@ribose.com>,
316 Erick Borsboom <erick.borsboom@ribose.com> ]
317
318 *) Reimplement -newreq-nodes and ERR_error_string_n; the
319 original author does not agree with the license change.
320 [Rich Salz]
321
322 *) Add ARIA AEAD TLS support.
323 [Jon Spillett]
324
325 *) Some macro definitions to support VS6 have been removed. Visual
326 Studio 6 has not worked since 1.1.0
327 [Rich Salz]
328
329 *) Add ERR_clear_last_mark(), to allow callers to clear the last mark
330 without clearing the errors.
331 [Richard Levitte]
332
333 *) Add "atfork" functions. If building on a system that without
334 pthreads, see doc/man3/OPENSSL_fork_prepare.pod for application
335 requirements. The RAND facility now uses/requires this.
336 [Rich Salz]
337
338 *) Add SHA3.
339 [Andy Polyakov]
340
341 *) The UI API becomes a permanent and integral part of libcrypto, i.e.
342 not possible to disable entirely. However, it's still possible to
343 disable the console reading UI method, UI_OpenSSL() (use UI_null()
344 as a fallback).
345
346 To disable, configure with 'no-ui-console'. 'no-ui' is still
347 possible to use as an alias. Check at compile time with the
348 macro OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE. The macro OPENSSL_NO_UI is still
349 possible to check and is an alias for OPENSSL_NO_UI_CONSOLE.
350 [Richard Levitte]
351
352 *) Add a STORE module, which implements a uniform and URI based reader of
353 stores that can contain keys, certificates, CRLs and numerous other
354 objects. The main API is loosely based on a few stdio functions,
355 and includes OSSL_STORE_open, OSSL_STORE_load, OSSL_STORE_eof,
356 OSSL_STORE_error and OSSL_STORE_close.
357 The implementation uses backends called "loaders" to implement arbitrary
358 URI schemes. There is one built in "loader" for the 'file' scheme.
359 [Richard Levitte]
360
361 *) Add devcrypto engine. This has been implemented against cryptodev-linux,
362 then adjusted to work on FreeBSD 8.4 as well.
363 Enable by configuring with 'enable-devcryptoeng'. This is done by default
364 on BSD implementations, as cryptodev.h is assumed to exist on all of them.
365 [Richard Levitte]
366
367 *) Module names can prefixed with OSSL_ or OPENSSL_. This affects
368 util/mkerr.pl, which is adapted to allow those prefixes, leading to
369 error code calls like this:
370
371 OSSL_FOOerr(OSSL_FOO_F_SOMETHING, OSSL_FOO_R_WHATEVER);
372
373 With this change, we claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL in a manner
374 that can be encoded in C. For the foreseeable future, this will only
375 affect new modules.
376 [Richard Levitte and Tim Hudson]
377
378 *) Removed BSD cryptodev engine.
379 [Rich Salz]
380
381 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
382 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
383 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
384 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
385 [Richard Levitte]
386
387 *) In the UI interface, make it possible to duplicate the user data. This
388 can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
389 than just the call where this user data is passed.
390 [Richard Levitte]
391
392 *) Ignore the '-named_curve auto' value for compatibility of applications
393 with OpenSSL 1.0.2.
394 [Tomas Mraz <tmraz@fedoraproject.org>]
395
396 *) Fragmented SSL/TLS alerts are no longer accepted. An alert message is 2
397 bytes long. In theory it is permissible in SSLv3 - TLSv1.2 to fragment such
398 alerts across multiple records (some of which could be empty). In practice
399 it make no sense to send an empty alert record, or to fragment one. TLSv1.3
400 prohibts this altogether and other libraries (BoringSSL, NSS) do not
401 support this at all. Supporting it adds significant complexity to the
402 record layer, and its removal is unlikely to cause inter-operability
403 issues.
404 [Matt Caswell]
405
406 *) Add the ASN.1 types INT32, UINT32, INT64, UINT64 and variants prefixed
407 with Z. These are meant to replace LONG and ZLONG and to be size safe.
408 The use of LONG and ZLONG is discouraged and scheduled for deprecation
409 in OpenSSL 1.2.0.
410 [Richard Levitte]
411
412 *) Add the 'z' and 'j' modifiers to BIO_printf() et al formatting string,
413 'z' is to be used for [s]size_t, and 'j' - with [u]int64_t.
414 [Richard Levitte, Andy Polyakov]
415
416 *) Add EC_KEY_get0_engine(), which does for EC_KEY what RSA_get0_engine()
417 does for RSA, etc.
418 [Richard Levitte]
419
420 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
421 platform rather than 'mingw'.
422 [Richard Levitte]
423
424 *) The functions X509_STORE_add_cert and X509_STORE_add_crl return
425 success if they are asked to add an object which already exists
426 in the store. This change cascades to other functions which load
427 certificates and CRLs.
428 [Paul Dale]
429
430 *) x86_64 assembly pack: annotate code with DWARF CFI directives to
431 facilitate stack unwinding even from assembly subroutines.
432 [Andy Polyakov]
433
434 *) Remove VAX C specific definitions of OPENSSL_EXPORT, OPENSSL_EXTERN.
435 Also remove OPENSSL_GLOBAL entirely, as it became a no-op.
436 [Richard Levitte]
437
438 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
439 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
440 which is the minimum version we support.
441 [Richard Levitte]
442
443 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
444 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
445 are no longer allowed.
446 [Emilia Käsper]
447
448 *) Add support for ARIA
449 [Paul Dale]
450
451 *) s_client will now send the Server Name Indication (SNI) extension by
452 default unless the new "-noservername" option is used. The server name is
453 based on the host provided to the "-connect" option unless overridden by
454 using "-servername".
455 [Matt Caswell]
456
457 *) Add support for SipHash
458 [Todd Short]
459
460 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
461 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
462 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
463 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
464 [Matt Caswell]
465
466 *) 'openssl passwd' can now produce SHA256 and SHA512 based output,
467 using the algorithm defined in
468 https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/SHA-crypt.txt
469 [Richard Levitte]
470
471 *) Heartbeat support has been removed; the ABI is changed for now.
472 [Richard Levitte, Rich Salz]
473
474 *) Support for SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC in SSL_CONF_cmd.
475 [Emilia Käsper]
476
477 *) The RSA "null" method, which was partially supported to avoid patent
478 issues, has been replaced to always returns NULL.
479 [Rich Salz]
480
481
482 Changes between 1.1.0h and 1.1.0i [xx XXX xxxx]
483
484 *) Client DoS due to large DH parameter
485
486 During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a
487 malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will
488 cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a
489 key for this prime resulting in a hang until the client has finished. This
490 could be exploited in a Denial Of Service attack.
491
492 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 5th June 2018 by Guido Vranken
493 (CVE-2018-0732)
494 [Guido Vranken]
495
496 *) Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation
497
498 The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to
499 a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to
500 mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could
501 recover the private key.
502
503 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th April 2018 by Alejandro Cabrera
504 Aldaya, Billy Brumley, Cesar Pereida Garcia and Luis Manuel Alvarez Tapia.
505 (CVE-2018-0737)
506 [Billy Brumley]
507
508 *) Make EVP_PKEY_asn1_new() a bit stricter about its input. A NULL pem_str
509 parameter is no longer accepted, as it leads to a corrupt table. NULL
510 pem_str is reserved for alias entries only.
511 [Richard Levitte]
512
513 *) Revert blinding in ECDSA sign and instead make problematic addition
514 length-invariant. Switch even to fixed-length Montgomery multiplication.
515 [Andy Polyakov]
516
517 *) Change generating and checking of primes so that the error rate of not
518 being prime depends on the intended use based on the size of the input.
519 For larger primes this will result in more rounds of Miller-Rabin.
520 The maximal error rate for primes with more than 1080 bits is lowered
521 to 2^-128.
522 [Kurt Roeckx, Annie Yousar]
523
524 *) Increase the number of Miller-Rabin rounds for DSA key generating to 64.
525 [Kurt Roeckx]
526
527 *) Add blinding to ECDSA and DSA signatures to protect against side channel
528 attacks discovered by Keegan Ryan (NCC Group).
529 [Matt Caswell]
530
531 *) When unlocking a pass phrase protected PEM file or PKCS#8 container, we
532 now allow empty (zero character) pass phrases.
533 [Richard Levitte]
534
535 *) Certificate time validation (X509_cmp_time) enforces stricter
536 compliance with RFC 5280. Fractional seconds and timezone offsets
537 are no longer allowed.
538 [Emilia Käsper]
539
540 *) Fixed a text canonicalisation bug in CMS
541
542 Where a CMS detached signature is used with text content the text goes
543 through a canonicalisation process first prior to signing or verifying a
544 signature. This process strips trailing space at the end of lines, converts
545 line terminators to CRLF and removes additional trailing line terminators
546 at the end of a file. A bug in the canonicalisation process meant that
547 some characters, such as form-feed, were incorrectly treated as whitespace
548 and removed. This is contrary to the specification (RFC5485). This fix
549 could mean that detached text data signed with an earlier version of
550 OpenSSL 1.1.0 may fail to verify using the fixed version, or text data
551 signed with a fixed OpenSSL may fail to verify with an earlier version of
552 OpenSSL 1.1.0. A workaround is to only verify the canonicalised text data
553 and use the "-binary" flag (for the "cms" command line application) or set
554 the SMIME_BINARY/PKCS7_BINARY/CMS_BINARY flags (if using CMS_verify()).

556
557 Changes between 1.1.0g and 1.1.0h [27 Mar 2018]
558
559 *) Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack
560
561 Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found
562 in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with
563 excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There
564 are no such structures used within SSL/TLS that come from untrusted sources
565 so this is considered safe.
566
567 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 4th January 2018 by the OSS-fuzz
568 project.
569 (CVE-2018-0739)
570 [Matt Caswell]
571
572 *) Incorrect CRYPTO_memcmp on HP-UX PA-RISC
573
574 Because of an implementation bug the PA-RISC CRYPTO_memcmp function is
575 effectively reduced to only comparing the least significant bit of each
576 byte. This allows an attacker to forge messages that would be considered as
577 authenticated in an amount of tries lower than that guaranteed by the
578 security claims of the scheme. The module can only be compiled by the
579 HP-UX assembler, so that only HP-UX PA-RISC targets are affected.
580
581 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 2nd March 2018 by Peter Waltenberg
582 (IBM).
583 (CVE-2018-0733)
584 [Andy Polyakov]
585
586 *) Add a build target 'build_all_generated', to build all generated files
587 and only that. This can be used to prepare everything that requires
588 things like perl for a system that lacks perl and then move everything
589 to that system and do the rest of the build there.
590 [Richard Levitte]
591
592 *) Backport SSL_OP_NO_RENGOTIATION
593
594 OpenSSL 1.0.2 and below had the ability to disable renegotiation using the
595 (undocumented) SSL3_FLAGS_NO_RENEGOTIATE_CIPHERS flag. Due to the opacity
596 changes this is no longer possible in 1.1.0. Therefore the new
597 SSL_OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION option from 1.1.1-dev has been backported to
598 1.1.0 to provide equivalent functionality.
599
600 Note that if an application built against 1.1.0h headers (or above) is run
601 using an older version of 1.1.0 (prior to 1.1.0h) then the option will be
602 accepted but nothing will happen, i.e. renegotiation will not be prevented.
603 [Matt Caswell]
604
605 *) Removed the OS390-Unix config target. It relied on a script that doesn't
606 exist.
607 [Rich Salz]
608
609 *) rsaz_1024_mul_avx2 overflow bug on x86_64
610
611 There is an overflow bug in the AVX2 Montgomery multiplication procedure
612 used in exponentiation with 1024-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected.
613 Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA and DSA as a result of this
614 defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
615 Attacks against DH1024 are considered just feasible, because most of the
616 work necessary to deduce information about a private key may be performed
617 offline. The amount of resources required for such an attack would be
618 significant. However, for an attack on TLS to be meaningful, the server
619 would have to share the DH1024 private key among multiple clients, which is
620 no longer an option since CVE-2016-0701.
621
622 This only affects processors that support the AVX2 but not ADX extensions
623 like Intel Haswell (4th generation).
624
625 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by David Benjamin (Google). The issue
626 was originally found via the OSS-Fuzz project.
627 (CVE-2017-3738)
628 [Andy Polyakov]
629
630 Changes between 1.1.0f and 1.1.0g [2 Nov 2017]
631
632 *) bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64
633
634 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
635 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
636 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
637 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
638 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
639 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
640 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
641 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
642 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
643 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
644 key that is shared between multiple clients.
645
646 This only affects processors that support the BMI1, BMI2 and ADX extensions
647 like Intel Broadwell (5th generation) and later or AMD Ryzen.
648
649 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
650 (CVE-2017-3736)
651 [Andy Polyakov]
652
653 *) Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read
654
655 If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension,
656 OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result
657 would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.
658
659 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
660 (CVE-2017-3735)
661 [Rich Salz]
662
663 Changes between 1.1.0e and 1.1.0f [25 May 2017]
664
665 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
666 platform rather than 'mingw'.
667 [Richard Levitte]
668
669 *) Remove the VMS-specific reimplementation of gmtime from crypto/o_times.c.
670 VMS C's RTL has a fully up to date gmtime() and gmtime_r() since V7.1,
671 which is the minimum version we support.
672 [Richard Levitte]
673
674 Changes between 1.1.0d and 1.1.0e [16 Feb 2017]
675
676 *) Encrypt-Then-Mac renegotiation crash
677
678 During a renegotiation handshake if the Encrypt-Then-Mac extension is
679 negotiated where it was not in the original handshake (or vice-versa) then
680 this can cause OpenSSL to crash (dependant on ciphersuite). Both clients
681 and servers are affected.
682
683 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joe Orton (Red Hat).
684 (CVE-2017-3733)
685 [Matt Caswell]
686
687 Changes between 1.1.0c and 1.1.0d [26 Jan 2017]
688
689 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
690
691 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
692 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
693 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.
694
695 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
696 (CVE-2017-3731)
697 [Andy Polyakov]
698
699 *) Bad (EC)DHE parameters cause a client crash
700
701 If a malicious server supplies bad parameters for a DHE or ECDHE key
702 exchange then this can result in the client attempting to dereference a
703 NULL pointer leading to a client crash. This could be exploited in a Denial
704 of Service attack.
705
706 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
707 (CVE-2017-3730)
708 [Matt Caswell]
709
710 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
711
712 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
713 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
714 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
715 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
716 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
717 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
718 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
719 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
720 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
721 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
722 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
723 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
724 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
725
726 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
727 (CVE-2017-3732)
728 [Andy Polyakov]
729
730 Changes between 1.1.0b and 1.1.0c [10 Nov 2016]
731
732 *) ChaCha20/Poly1305 heap-buffer-overflow
733
734 TLS connections using *-CHACHA20-POLY1305 ciphersuites are susceptible to
735 a DoS attack by corrupting larger payloads. This can result in an OpenSSL
736 crash. This issue is not considered to be exploitable beyond a DoS.
737
738 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki (Google Security Team)
739 (CVE-2016-7054)
740 [Richard Levitte]
741
742 *) CMS Null dereference
743
744 Applications parsing invalid CMS structures can crash with a NULL pointer
745 dereference. This is caused by a bug in the handling of the ASN.1 CHOICE
746 type in OpenSSL 1.1.0 which can result in a NULL value being passed to the
747 structure callback if an attempt is made to free certain invalid encodings.
748 Only CHOICE structures using a callback which do not handle NULL value are
749 affected.
750
751 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Tyler Nighswander of ForAllSecure.
752 (CVE-2016-7053)
753 [Stephen Henson]
754
755 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
756
757 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
758 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
759 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
760 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
761 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
762 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
763 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
764 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
765 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
766 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
767 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
768 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
769 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
770 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
771
772 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
773 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
774 providing reproducible case.
775 (CVE-2016-7055)
776 [Andy Polyakov]
777
778 *) Removed automatic addition of RPATH in shared libraries and executables,
779 as this was a remainder from OpenSSL 1.0.x and isn't needed any more.
780 [Richard Levitte]
781
782 Changes between 1.1.0a and 1.1.0b [26 Sep 2016]
783
784 *) Fix Use After Free for large message sizes
785
786 The patch applied to address CVE-2016-6307 resulted in an issue where if a
787 message larger than approx 16k is received then the underlying buffer to
788 store the incoming message is reallocated and moved. Unfortunately a
789 dangling pointer to the old location is left which results in an attempt to
790 write to the previously freed location. This is likely to result in a
791 crash, however it could potentially lead to execution of arbitrary code.
792
793 This issue only affects OpenSSL 1.1.0a.
794
795 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki.
796 (CVE-2016-6309)
797 [Matt Caswell]
798
799 Changes between 1.1.0 and 1.1.0a [22 Sep 2016]
800
801 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
802
803 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
804 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
805 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
806 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
807 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
808 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
809 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

812 (CVE-2016-6304)
813 [Matt Caswell]
814
815 *) SSL_peek() hang on empty record
816
817 OpenSSL 1.1.0 SSL/TLS will hang during a call to SSL_peek() if the peer
818 sends an empty record. This could be exploited by a malicious peer in a
819 Denial Of Service attack.
820
821 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Alex Gaynor.
822 (CVE-2016-6305)
823 [Matt Caswell]
824
825 *) Excessive allocation of memory in tls_get_message_header() and
826 dtls1_preprocess_fragment()
827
828 A (D)TLS message includes 3 bytes for its length in the header for the
829 message. This would allow for messages up to 16Mb in length. Messages of
830 this length are excessive and OpenSSL includes a check to ensure that a
831 peer is sending reasonably sized messages in order to avoid too much memory
832 being consumed to service a connection. A flaw in the logic of version
833 1.1.0 means that memory for the message is allocated too early, prior to
834 the excessive message length check. Due to way memory is allocated in
835 OpenSSL this could mean an attacker could force up to 21Mb to be allocated
836 to service a connection. This could lead to a Denial of Service through
837 memory exhaustion. However, the excessive message length check still takes
838 place, and this would cause the connection to immediately fail. Assuming
839 that the application calls SSL_free() on the failed connection in a timely
840 manner then the 21Mb of allocated memory will then be immediately freed
841 again. Therefore the excessive memory allocation will be transitory in
842 nature. This then means that there is only a security impact if:
843
844 1) The application does not call SSL_free() in a timely manner in the event
845 that the connection fails
846 or
847 2) The application is working in a constrained environment where there is
848 very little free memory
849 or
850 3) The attacker initiates multiple connection attempts such that there are
851 multiple connections in a state where memory has been allocated for the
852 connection; SSL_free() has not yet been called; and there is insufficient
853 memory to service the multiple requests.
854
855 Except in the instance of (1) above any Denial Of Service is likely to be
856 transitory because as soon as the connection fails the memory is
857 subsequently freed again in the SSL_free() call. However there is an
858 increased risk during this period of application crashes due to the lack of
859 memory - which would then mean a more serious Denial of Service.

862 (CVE-2016-6307 and CVE-2016-6308)
863 [Matt Caswell]
864
865 *) solaris-x86-cc, i.e. 32-bit configuration with vendor compiler,
866 had to be removed. Primary reason is that vendor assembler can't
867 assemble our modules with -KPIC flag. As result it, assembly
868 support, was not even available as option. But its lack means
869 lack of side-channel resistant code, which is incompatible with
870 security by todays standards. Fortunately gcc is readily available
871 prepackaged option, which we firmly point at...
872 [Andy Polyakov]
873
874 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.1.0 [25 Aug 2016]
875
876 *) Windows command-line tool supports UTF-8 opt-in option for arguments
877 and console input. Setting OPENSSL_WIN32_UTF8 environment variable
878 (to any value) allows Windows user to access PKCS#12 file generated
879 with Windows CryptoAPI and protected with non-ASCII password, as well
880 as files generated under UTF-8 locale on Linux also protected with
881 non-ASCII password.
882 [Andy Polyakov]
883
884 *) To mitigate the SWEET32 attack (CVE-2016-2183), 3DES cipher suites
885 have been disabled by default and removed from DEFAULT, just like RC4.
886 See the RC4 item below to re-enable both.
887 [Rich Salz]
888
889 *) The method for finding the storage location for the Windows RAND seed file
890 has changed. First we check %RANDFILE%. If that is not set then we check
891 the directories %HOME%, %USERPROFILE% and %SYSTEMROOT% in that order. If
892 all else fails we fall back to C:\.
893 [Matt Caswell]
894
895 *) The EVP_EncryptUpdate() function has had its return type changed from void
896 to int. A return of 0 indicates and error while a return of 1 indicates
897 success.
898 [Matt Caswell]
899
900 *) The flags RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME and
901 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME which previously provided the ability to switch
902 off the constant time implementation for RSA, DSA and DH have been made
903 no-ops and deprecated.
904 [Matt Caswell]
905
906 *) Windows RAND implementation was simplified to only get entropy by
907 calling CryptGenRandom(). Various other RAND-related tickets
908 were also closed.
909 [Joseph Wylie Yandle, Rich Salz]
910
911 *) The stack and lhash API's were renamed to start with OPENSSL_SK_
912 and OPENSSL_LH_, respectively. The old names are available
913 with API compatibility. They new names are now completely documented.
914 [Rich Salz]
915
916 *) Unify TYPE_up_ref(obj) methods signature.
917 SSL_CTX_up_ref(), SSL_up_ref(), X509_up_ref(), EVP_PKEY_up_ref(),
918 X509_CRL_up_ref(), X509_OBJECT_up_ref_count() methods are now returning an
919 int (instead of void) like all others TYPE_up_ref() methods.
920 So now these methods also check the return value of CRYPTO_atomic_add(),
921 and the validity of object reference counter.
922 [fdasilvayy@gmail.com]
923
924 *) With Windows Visual Studio builds, the .pdb files are installed
925 alongside the installed libraries and executables. For a static
926 library installation, ossl_static.pdb is the associate compiler
927 generated .pdb file to be used when linking programs.
928 [Richard Levitte]
929
930 *) Remove openssl.spec. Packaging files belong with the packagers.
931 [Richard Levitte]
932
933 *) Automatic Darwin/OSX configuration has had a refresh, it will now
934 recognise x86_64 architectures automatically. You can still decide
935 to build for a different bitness with the environment variable
936 KERNEL_BITS (can be 32 or 64), for example:
937
938 KERNEL_BITS=32 ./config
939
940 [Richard Levitte]
941
942 *) Change default algorithms in pkcs8 utility to use PKCS#5 v2.0,
943 256 bit AES and HMAC with SHA256.
944 [Steve Henson]
945
946 *) Remove support for MIPS o32 ABI on IRIX (and IRIX only).
947 [Andy Polyakov]
948
949 *) Triple-DES ciphers have been moved from HIGH to MEDIUM.
950 [Rich Salz]
951
952 *) To enable users to have their own config files and build file templates,
953 Configure looks in the directory indicated by the environment variable
954 OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR as well as the in-source Configurations/
955 directory. On VMS, OPENSSL_LOCAL_CONFIG_DIR is expected to be a logical
956 name and is used as is.
957 [Richard Levitte]
958
959 *) The following datatypes were made opaque: X509_OBJECT, X509_STORE_CTX,
960 X509_STORE, X509_LOOKUP, and X509_LOOKUP_METHOD. The unused type
961 X509_CERT_FILE_CTX was removed.
962 [Rich Salz]
963
964 *) "shared" builds are now the default. To create only static libraries use
965 the "no-shared" Configure option.
966 [Matt Caswell]
967
968 *) Remove the no-aes, no-hmac, no-rsa, no-sha and no-md5 Configure options.
969 All of these option have not worked for some while and are fundamental
970 algorithms.
971 [Matt Caswell]
972
973 *) Make various cleanup routines no-ops and mark them as deprecated. Most
974 global cleanup functions are no longer required because they are handled
975 via auto-deinit (see OPENSSL_init_crypto and OPENSSL_init_ssl man pages).
976 Explicitly de-initing can cause problems (e.g. where a library that uses
977 OpenSSL de-inits, but an application is still using it). The affected
978 functions are CONF_modules_free(), ENGINE_cleanup(), OBJ_cleanup(),
979 EVP_cleanup(), BIO_sock_cleanup(), CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(),
980 RAND_cleanup(), SSL_COMP_free_compression_methods(), ERR_free_strings() and
981 COMP_zlib_cleanup().
982 [Matt Caswell]
983
984 *) --strict-warnings no longer enables runtime debugging options
985 such as REF_DEBUG. Instead, debug options are automatically
986 enabled with '--debug' builds.
987 [Andy Polyakov, Emilia Käsper]
988
989 *) Made DH and DH_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DH objects
990 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
991 these have been added.
992 [Matt Caswell]
993
994 *) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
995 objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
996 functions for managing these have been added.
997 [Richard Levitte]
998
999 *) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
1000 have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
1001 these have been added.
1002 [Matt Caswell]
1003
1004 *) Made BIO and BIO_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing BIOs have been
1005 moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing these
1006 have been added.
1007 [Matt Caswell]
1008
1009 *) Removed no-rijndael as a config option. Rijndael is an old name for AES.
1010 [Matt Caswell]
1011
1012 *) Removed the mk1mf build scripts.
1013 [Richard Levitte]
1014
1015 *) Headers are now wrapped, if necessary, with OPENSSL_NO_xxx, so
1016 it is always safe to #include a header now.
1017 [Rich Salz]
1018
1019 *) Removed the aged BC-32 config and all its supporting scripts
1020 [Richard Levitte]
1021
1022 *) Removed support for Ultrix, Netware, and OS/2.
1023 [Rich Salz]
1024
1025 *) Add support for HKDF.
1026 [Alessandro Ghedini]
1027
1028 *) Add support for blake2b and blake2s
1029 [Bill Cox]
1030
1031 *) Added support for "pipelining". Ciphers that have the
1032 EVP_CIPH_FLAG_PIPELINE flag set have a capability to process multiple
1033 encryptions/decryptions simultaneously. There are currently no built-in
1034 ciphers with this property but the expectation is that engines will be able
1035 to offer it to significantly improve throughput. Support has been extended
1036 into libssl so that multiple records for a single connection can be
1037 processed in one go (for >=TLS 1.1).
1038 [Matt Caswell]
1039
1040 *) Added the AFALG engine. This is an async capable engine which is able to
1041 offload work to the Linux kernel. In this initial version it only supports
1042 AES128-CBC. The kernel must be version 4.1.0 or greater.
1043 [Catriona Lucey]
1044
1045 *) OpenSSL now uses a new threading API. It is no longer necessary to
1046 set locking callbacks to use OpenSSL in a multi-threaded environment. There
1047 are two supported threading models: pthreads and windows threads. It is
1048 also possible to configure OpenSSL at compile time for "no-threads". The
1049 old threading API should no longer be used. The functions have been
1050 replaced with "no-op" compatibility macros.
1051 [Alessandro Ghedini, Matt Caswell]
1052
1053 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
1054 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
1055 [Todd Short]
1056
1057 *) Add SSL_CIPHER queries for authentication and key-exchange.
1058 [Todd Short]
1059
1060 *) Changes to the DEFAULT cipherlist:
1061 - Prefer (EC)DHE handshakes over plain RSA.
1062 - Prefer AEAD ciphers over legacy ciphers.
1063 - Prefer ECDSA over RSA when both certificates are available.
1064 - Prefer TLSv1.2 ciphers/PRF.
1065 - Remove DSS, SEED, IDEA, CAMELLIA, and AES-CCM from the
1066 default cipherlist.
1067 [Emilia Käsper]
1068
1069 *) Change the ECC default curve list to be this, in order: x25519,
1070 secp256r1, secp521r1, secp384r1.
1071 [Rich Salz]
1072
1073 *) RC4 based libssl ciphersuites are now classed as "weak" ciphers and are
1074 disabled by default. They can be re-enabled using the
1075 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers option to Configure.
1076 [Matt Caswell]
1077
1078 *) If the server has ALPN configured, but supports no protocols that the
1079 client advertises, send a fatal "no_application_protocol" alert.
1080 This behaviour is SHALL in RFC 7301, though it isn't universally
1081 implemented by other servers.
1082 [Emilia Käsper]
1083
1084 *) Add X25519 support.
1085 Add ASN.1 and EVP_PKEY methods for X25519. This includes support
1086 for public and private key encoding using the format documented in
1087 draft-ietf-curdle-pkix-02. The corresponding EVP_PKEY method supports
1088 key generation and key derivation.
1089
1090 TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-08 and uses
1091 X25519(29).
1092 [Steve Henson]
1093
1094 *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user.
1095 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
1096 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798),
1097 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP
1098 seed, even if the seed is configured.
1099
1100 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
1101 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
1102 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
1103 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
1104 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
1105 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
1106 that of a valid user.
1107 [Emilia Käsper]
1108
1109 *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines
1110 without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This
1111 only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/
1112 will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static").
1113
1114 Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use
1115 the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine".
1116
1117 The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the
1118 presence of the DSO module and building with position independent
1119 code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring
1120 with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic".
1121
1122 The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE
1123 are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are
1124 irrelevant.
1125 [Richard Levitte]
1126
1127 *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile
1128 position independent code, it will always be applied on the
1129 libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application
1130 object files. This means other libraries that use routines from
1131 libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless
1132 of how OpenSSL was configured.
1133
1134 If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic"
1135 or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will
1136 also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines.
1137 [Richard Levitte]
1138
1139 *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use.
1140 [Rich Salz]
1141
1142 *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to
1143 DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable
1144 is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is
1145 removed.
1146 [Richard Levitte]
1147
1148 *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default
1149 for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the
1150 old #define's might need to be updated.
1151 [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz]
1152
1153 *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG.
1154 [Rich Salz]
1155
1156 *) New "unified" build system
1157
1158 The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all
1159 platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS.
1160
1161 This system builds supports building in a different directory tree
1162 than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family
1163 or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS).
1164
1165 The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is
1166 small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary
1167 information for each directory with source to compile, and a
1168 template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or
1169 descrip.mms.tmpl.
1170
1171 With this change, the library names were also renamed on Windows
1172 and on VMS. They now have names that are closer to the standard
1173 on Unix, and include the major version number, and in certain
1174 cases, the architecture they are built for. See "Notes on shared
1175 libraries" in INSTALL.
1176
1177 We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template.
1178 [Richard Levitte]
1179
1180 *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library.
1181 OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called,
1182 except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and
1183 OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information.
1184 [Matt Caswell]
1185
1186 *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed. Specifically the
1187 "peer" argument is now expected to be a BIO_ADDR object.
1188
1189 *) Rewrite of BIO networking library. The BIO library lacked consistent
1190 support of IPv6, and adding it required some more extensive
1191 modifications. This introduces the BIO_ADDR and BIO_ADDRINFO types,
1192 which hold all types of addresses and chains of address information.
1193 It also introduces a new API, with functions like BIO_socket,
1194 BIO_connect, BIO_listen, BIO_lookup and a rewrite of BIO_accept.
1195 The source/sink BIOs BIO_s_connect, BIO_s_accept and BIO_s_datagram
1196 have been adapted accordingly.
1197 [Richard Levitte]
1198
1199 *) RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1 now accepts inputs with and without
1200 the leading 0-byte.
1201 [Emilia Käsper]
1202
1203 *) CRIME protection: disable compression by default, even if OpenSSL is
1204 compiled with zlib enabled. Applications can still enable compression
1205 by calling SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION), or by
1206 using the SSL_CONF library to configure compression.
1207 [Emilia Käsper]
1208
1209 *) The signature of the session callback configured with
1210 SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb was changed. The read-only input buffer
1211 was explicitly marked as 'const unsigned char*' instead of
1212 'unsigned char*'.
1213 [Emilia Käsper]
1214
1215 *) Always DPURIFY. Remove the use of uninitialized memory in the
1216 RNG, and other conditional uses of DPURIFY. This makes -DPURIFY a no-op.
1217 [Emilia Käsper]
1218
1219 *) Removed many obsolete configuration items, including
1220 DES_PTR, DES_RISC1, DES_RISC2, DES_INT
1221 MD2_CHAR, MD2_INT, MD2_LONG
1222 BF_PTR, BF_PTR2
1223 IDEA_SHORT, IDEA_LONG
1224 RC2_SHORT, RC2_LONG, RC4_LONG, RC4_CHUNK, RC4_INDEX
1225 [Rich Salz, with advice from Andy Polyakov]
1226
1227 *) Many BN internals have been moved to an internal header file.
1228 [Rich Salz with help from Andy Polyakov]
1229
1230 *) Configuration and writing out the results from it has changed.
1231 Files such as Makefile include/openssl/opensslconf.h and are now
1232 produced through general templates, such as Makefile.in and
1233 crypto/opensslconf.h.in and some help from the perl module
1234 Text::Template.
1235
1236 Also, the center of configuration information is no longer
1237 Makefile. Instead, Configure produces a perl module in
1238 configdata.pm which holds most of the config data (in the hash
1239 table %config), the target data that comes from the target
1240 configuration in one of the Configurations/*.conf files (in
1241 %target).
1242 [Richard Levitte]
1243
1244 *) To clarify their intended purposes, the Configure options
1245 --prefix and --openssldir change their semantics, and become more
1246 straightforward and less interdependent.
1247
1248 --prefix shall be used exclusively to give the location INSTALLTOP
1249 where programs, scripts, libraries, include files and manuals are
1250 going to be installed. The default is now /usr/local.
1251
1252 --openssldir shall be used exclusively to give the default
1253 location OPENSSLDIR where certificates, private keys, CRLs are
1254 managed. This is also where the default openssl.cnf gets
1255 installed.
1256 If the directory given with this option is a relative path, the
1257 values of both the --prefix value and the --openssldir value will
1258 be combined to become OPENSSLDIR.
1259 The default for --openssldir is INSTALLTOP/ssl.
1260
1261 Anyone who uses --openssldir to specify where OpenSSL is to be
1262 installed MUST change to use --prefix instead.
1263 [Richard Levitte]
1264
1265 *) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An up
1266 to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external repository.
1267 See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl still retains
1268 support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if a GOST engine
1269 is present).
1270 [Matt Caswell]
1271
1272 *) EGD is no longer supported by default; use enable-egd when
1273 configuring.
1274 [Ben Kaduk and Rich Salz]
1275
1276 *) The distribution now has Makefile.in files, which are used to
1277 create Makefile's when Configure is run. *Configure must be run
1278 before trying to build now.*
1279 [Rich Salz]
1280
1281 *) The return value for SSL_CIPHER_description() for error conditions
1282 has changed.
1283 [Rich Salz]
1284
1285 *) Support for RFC6698/RFC7671 DANE TLSA peer authentication.
1286
1287 Obtaining and performing DNSSEC validation of TLSA records is
1288 the application's responsibility. The application provides
1289 the TLSA records of its choice to OpenSSL, and these are then
1290 used to authenticate the peer.
1291
1292 The TLSA records need not even come from DNS. They can, for
1293 example, be used to implement local end-entity certificate or
1294 trust-anchor "pinning", where the "pin" data takes the form
1295 of TLSA records, which can augment or replace verification
1296 based on the usual WebPKI public certification authorities.
1297 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1298
1299 *) Revert default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED setting. Instead OpenSSL
1300 continues to support deprecated interfaces in default builds.
1301 However, applications are strongly advised to compile their
1302 source files with -DOPENSSL_API_COMPAT=0x10100000L, which hides
1303 the declarations of all interfaces deprecated in 0.9.8, 1.0.0
1304 or the 1.1.0 releases.
1305
1306 In environments in which all applications have been ported to
1307 not use any deprecated interfaces OpenSSL's Configure script
1308 should be used with the --api=1.1.0 option to entirely remove
1309 support for the deprecated features from the library and
1310 unconditionally disable them in the installed headers.
1311 Essentially the same effect can be achieved with the "no-deprecated"
1312 argument to Configure, except that this will always restrict
1313 the build to just the latest API, rather than a fixed API
1314 version.
1315
1316 As applications are ported to future revisions of the API,
1317 they should update their compile-time OPENSSL_API_COMPAT define
1318 accordingly, but in most cases should be able to continue to
1319 compile with later releases.
1320
1321 The OPENSSL_API_COMPAT versions for 1.0.0, and 0.9.8 are
1322 0x10000000L and 0x00908000L, respectively. However those
1323 versions did not support the OPENSSL_API_COMPAT feature, and
1324 so applications are not typically tested for explicit support
1325 of just the undeprecated features of either release.
1326 [Viktor Dukhovni]
1327
1328 *) Add support for setting the minimum and maximum supported protocol.
1329 It can bet set via the SSL_set_min_proto_version() and
1330 SSL_set_max_proto_version(), or via the SSL_CONF's MinProtocol and
1331 MaxProtocol. It's recommended to use the new APIs to disable
1332 protocols instead of disabling individual protocols using
1333 SSL_set_options() or SSL_CONF's Protocol. This change also
1334 removes support for disabling TLS 1.2 in the OpenSSL TLS
1335 client at compile time by defining OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT.
1336 [Kurt Roeckx]
1337
1338 *) Support for ChaCha20 and Poly1305 added to libcrypto and libssl.
1339 [Andy Polyakov]
1340
1341 *) New EC_KEY_METHOD, this replaces the older ECDSA_METHOD and ECDH_METHOD
1342 and integrates ECDSA and ECDH functionality into EC. Implementations can
1343 now redirect key generation and no longer need to convert to or from
1344 ECDSA_SIG format.
1345
1346 Note: the ecdsa.h and ecdh.h headers are now no longer needed and just
1347 include the ec.h header file instead.
1348 [Steve Henson]
1349
1350 *) Remove support for all 40 and 56 bit ciphers. This includes all the export
1351 ciphers who are no longer supported and drops support the ephemeral RSA key
1352 exchange. The LOW ciphers currently doesn't have any ciphers in it.
1353 [Kurt Roeckx]
1354
1355 *) Made EVP_MD_CTX, EVP_MD, EVP_CIPHER_CTX, EVP_CIPHER and HMAC_CTX
1356 opaque. For HMAC_CTX, the following constructors and destructors
1357 were added:
1358
1359 HMAC_CTX *HMAC_CTX_new(void);
1360 void HMAC_CTX_free(HMAC_CTX *ctx);
1361
1362 For EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER, complete APIs to create, fill and
1363 destroy such methods has been added. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) and
1364 EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for documentation.
1365
1366 Additional changes:
1367 1) EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() and
1368 HMAC_CTX_cleanup() were removed. HMAC_CTX_reset() and
1369 EVP_MD_CTX_reset() should be called instead to reinitialise
1370 an already created structure.
1371 2) For consistency with the majority of our object creators and
1372 destructors, EVP_MD_CTX_(create|destroy) were renamed to
1373 EVP_MD_CTX_(new|free). The old names are retained as macros
1374 for deprecated builds.
1375 [Richard Levitte]
1376
1377 *) Added ASYNC support. Libcrypto now includes the async sub-library to enable
1378 cryptographic operations to be performed asynchronously as long as an
1379 asynchronous capable engine is used. See the ASYNC_start_job() man page for
1380 further details. Libssl has also had this capability integrated with the
1381 introduction of the new mode SSL_MODE_ASYNC and associated error
1382 SSL_ERROR_WANT_ASYNC. See the SSL_CTX_set_mode() and SSL_get_error() man
1383 pages. This work was developed in partnership with Intel Corp.
1384 [Matt Caswell]
1385
1386 *) SSL_{CTX_}set_ecdh_auto() has been removed and ECDH is support is
1387 always enabled now. If you want to disable the support you should
1388 exclude it using the list of supported ciphers. This also means that the
1389 "-no_ecdhe" option has been removed from s_server.
1390 [Kurt Roeckx]
1391
1392 *) SSL_{CTX}_set_tmp_ecdh() which can set 1 EC curve now internally calls
1393 SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves() which can set a list.
1394 [Kurt Roeckx]
1395
1396 *) Remove support for SSL_{CTX_}set_tmp_ecdh_callback(). You should set the
1397 curve you want to support using SSL_{CTX_}set1_curves().
1398 [Kurt Roeckx]
1399
1400 *) State machine rewrite. The state machine code has been significantly
1401 refactored in order to remove much duplication of code and solve issues
1402 with the old code (see ssl/statem/README for further details). This change
1403 does have some associated API changes. Notably the SSL_state() function
1404 has been removed and replaced by SSL_get_state which now returns an
1405 "OSSL_HANDSHAKE_STATE" instead of an int. SSL_set_state() has been removed
1406 altogether. The previous handshake states defined in ssl.h and ssl3.h have
1407 also been removed.
1408 [Matt Caswell]
1409
1410 *) All instances of the string "ssleay" in the public API were replaced
1411 with OpenSSL (case-matching; e.g., OPENSSL_VERSION for #define's)
1412 Some error codes related to internal RSA_eay API's were renamed.
1413 [Rich Salz]
1414
1415 *) The demo files in crypto/threads were moved to demo/threads.
1416 [Rich Salz]
1417
1418 *) Removed obsolete engines: 4758cca, aep, atalla, cswift, nuron, gmp,
1419 sureware and ubsec.
1420 [Matt Caswell, Rich Salz]
1421
1422 *) New ASN.1 embed macro.
1423
1424 New ASN.1 macro ASN1_EMBED. This is the same as ASN1_SIMPLE except the
1425 structure is not allocated: it is part of the parent. That is instead of
1426
1427 FOO *x;
1428
1429 it must be:
1430
1431 FOO x;
1432
1433 This reduces memory fragmentation and make it impossible to accidentally
1434 set a mandatory field to NULL.
1435
1436 This currently only works for some fields specifically a SEQUENCE, CHOICE,
1437 or ASN1_STRING type which is part of a parent SEQUENCE. Since it is
1438 equivalent to ASN1_SIMPLE it cannot be tagged, OPTIONAL, SET OF or
1439 SEQUENCE OF.
1440 [Steve Henson]
1441
1442 *) Remove EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY, a compile-time option that never compiled.
1443 [Emilia Käsper]
1444
1445 *) Removed DES and RC4 ciphersuites from DEFAULT. Also removed RC2 although
1446 in 1.0.2 EXPORT was already removed and the only RC2 ciphersuite is also
1447 an EXPORT one. COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT has been updated accordingly to add
1448 DES and RC4 ciphersuites.
1449 [Matt Caswell]
1450
1451 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
1452 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
1453 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
1454 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
1455 [Emilia Käsper]
1456
1457 *) Fix no-stdio build.
1458 [ David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> and also
1459 Ivan Nestlerode <ivan.nestlerode@sonos.com> ]
1460
1461 *) New testing framework
1462 The testing framework has been largely rewritten and is now using
1463 perl and the perl modules Test::Harness and an extended variant of
1464 Test::More called OpenSSL::Test to do its work. All test scripts in
1465 test/ have been rewritten into test recipes, and all direct calls to
1466 executables in test/Makefile have become individual recipes using the
1467 simplified testing OpenSSL::Test::Simple.
1468
1469 For documentation on our testing modules, do:
1470
1471 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test/Simple.pm
1472 perldoc test/testlib/OpenSSL/Test.pm
1473
1474 [Richard Levitte]
1475
1476 *) Revamped memory debug; only -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG and -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ABORT
1477 are used; the latter aborts on memory leaks (usually checked on exit).
1478 Some undocumented "set malloc, etc., hooks" functions were removed
1479 and others were changed. All are now documented.
1480 [Rich Salz]
1481
1482 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
1483 return an error
1484 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
1485
1486 *) Rewrite PSK to support ECDHE_PSK, DHE_PSK and RSA_PSK. Add ciphersuites
1487 from RFC4279, RFC4785, RFC5487, RFC5489.
1488
1489 Thanks to Christian J. Dietrich and Giuseppe D'Angelo for the
1490 original RSA_PSK patch.
1491 [Steve Henson]
1492
1493 *) Dropped support for the SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED flag. This SSLeay
1494 era flag was never set throughout the codebase (only read). Also removed
1495 SSL3_FLAGS_POP_BUFFER which was only used if
1496 SSL3_FLAGS_DELAY_CLIENT_FINISHED was also set.
1497 [Matt Caswell]
1498
1499 *) Changed the default name options in the "ca", "crl", "req" and "x509"
1500 to be "oneline" instead of "compat".
1501 [Richard Levitte]
1502
1503 *) Remove SSL_OP_TLS_BLOCK_PADDING_BUG. This is SSLeay legacy, we're
1504 not aware of clients that still exhibit this bug, and the workaround
1505 hasn't been working properly for a while.
1506 [Emilia Käsper]
1507
1508 *) The return type of BIO_number_read() and BIO_number_written() as well as
1509 the corresponding num_read and num_write members in the BIO structure has
1510 changed from unsigned long to uint64_t. On platforms where an unsigned
1511 long is 32 bits (e.g. Windows) these counters could overflow if >4Gb is
1512 transferred.
1513 [Matt Caswell]
1514
1515 *) Given the pervasive nature of TLS extensions it is inadvisable to run
1516 OpenSSL without support for them. It also means that maintaining
1517 the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option within the code is very invasive (and probably
1518 not well tested). Therefore the OPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT option has been removed.
1519 [Matt Caswell]
1520
1521 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
1522 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
1523 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
1524 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
1525 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
1526 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
1527 [Matt Caswell]
1528
1529 *) Version negotiation has been rewritten. In particular SSLv23_method(),
1530 SSLv23_client_method() and SSLv23_server_method() have been deprecated,
1531 and turned into macros which simply call the new preferred function names
1532 TLS_method(), TLS_client_method() and TLS_server_method(). All new code
1533 should use the new names instead. Also as part of this change the ssl23.h
1534 header file has been removed.
1535 [Matt Caswell]
1536
1537 *) Support for Kerberos ciphersuites in TLS (RFC2712) has been removed. This
1538 code and the associated standard is no longer considered fit-for-purpose.
1539 [Matt Caswell]
1540
1541 *) RT2547 was closed. When generating a private key, try to make the
1542 output file readable only by the owner. This behavior change might
1543 be noticeable when interacting with other software.
1544
1545 *) Documented all exdata functions. Added CRYPTO_free_ex_index.
1546 Added a test.
1547 [Rich Salz]
1548
1549 *) Added HTTP GET support to the ocsp command.
1550 [Rich Salz]
1551
1552 *) Changed default digest for the dgst and enc commands from MD5 to
1553 sha256
1554 [Rich Salz]
1555
1556 *) RAND_pseudo_bytes has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes instead.
1557 [Matt Caswell]
1558
1559 *) Added support for TLS extended master secret from
1560 draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-03.txt. Thanks for Alfredo Pironti for an
1561 initial patch which was a great help during development.
1562 [Steve Henson]
1563
1564 *) All libssl internal structures have been removed from the public header
1565 files, and the OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN option has been removed (since it is
1566 now redundant). Users should not attempt to access internal structures
1567 directly. Instead they should use the provided API functions.
1568 [Matt Caswell]
1569
1570 *) config has been changed so that by default OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is used.
1571 Access to deprecated functions can be re-enabled by running config with
1572 "enable-deprecated". In addition applications wishing to use deprecated
1573 functions must define OPENSSL_USE_DEPRECATED. Note that this new behaviour
1574 will, by default, disable some transitive includes that previously existed
1575 in the header files (e.g. ec.h will no longer, by default, include bn.h)
1576 [Matt Caswell]
1577
1578 *) Added support for OCB mode. OpenSSL has been granted a patent license
1579 compatible with the OpenSSL license for use of OCB. Details are available
1580 at https://www.openssl.org/source/OCB-patent-grant-OpenSSL.pdf. Support
1581 for OCB can be removed by calling config with no-ocb.
1582 [Matt Caswell]
1583
1584 *) SSLv2 support has been removed. It still supports receiving a SSLv2
1585 compatible client hello.
1586 [Kurt Roeckx]
1587
1588 *) Increased the minimal RSA keysize from 256 to 512 bits [Rich Salz],
1589 done while fixing the error code for the key-too-small case.
1590 [Annie Yousar <a.yousar@informatik.hu-berlin.de>]
1591
1592 *) CA.sh has been removed; use CA.pl instead.
1593 [Rich Salz]
1594
1595 *) Removed old DES API.
1596 [Rich Salz]
1597
1598 *) Remove various unsupported platforms:
1599 Sony NEWS4
1600 BEOS and BEOS_R5
1601 NeXT
1602 SUNOS
1603 MPE/iX
1604 Sinix/ReliantUNIX RM400
1605 DGUX
1606 NCR
1607 Tandem
1608 Cray
1609 16-bit platforms such as WIN16
1610 [Rich Salz]
1611
1612 *) Clean up OPENSSL_NO_xxx #define's
1613 Use setbuf() and remove OPENSSL_NO_SETVBUF_IONBF
1614 Rename OPENSSL_SYSNAME_xxx to OPENSSL_SYS_xxx
1615 OPENSSL_NO_EC{DH,DSA} merged into OPENSSL_NO_EC
1616 OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD160, OPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD merged into OPENSSL_NO_RMD160
1617 OPENSSL_NO_FP_API merged into OPENSSL_NO_STDIO
1618 Remove OPENSSL_NO_BIO OPENSSL_NO_BUFFER OPENSSL_NO_CHAIN_VERIFY
1619 OPENSSL_NO_EVP OPENSSL_NO_FIPS_ERR OPENSSL_NO_HASH_COMP
1620 OPENSSL_NO_LHASH OPENSSL_NO_OBJECT OPENSSL_NO_SPEED OPENSSL_NO_STACK
1621 OPENSSL_NO_X509 OPENSSL_NO_X509_VERIFY
1622 Remove MS_STATIC; it's a relic from platforms <32 bits.
1623 [Rich Salz]
1624
1625 *) Cleaned up dead code
1626 Remove all but one '#ifdef undef' which is to be looked at.
1627 [Rich Salz]
1628
1629 *) Clean up calling of xxx_free routines.
1630 Just like free(), fix most of the xxx_free routines to accept
1631 NULL. Remove the non-null checks from callers. Save much code.
1632 [Rich Salz]
1633
1634 *) Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
1635 Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
1636 Contributed by Akamai Technologies under our Corporate CLA.
1637 [Rich Salz]
1638
1639 *) Experimental support for a new, fast, unbiased prime candidate generator,
1640 bn_probable_prime_dh_coprime(). Not currently used by any prime generator.
1641 [Felix Laurie von Massenbach <felix@erbridge.co.uk>]
1642
1643 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
1644 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
1645 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
1646
1647 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1648 compilation flags.
1649 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1650
1651 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1652 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1653 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1654
1655 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1656 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1657
1658 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1659 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1660 server.
1661
1662 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1663 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1664 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1665 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1666
1667 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1668 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1669 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1670 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1671
1672 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1673 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1674 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1675
1676 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
1677 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
1678 [Steve Henson]
1679
1680 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
1681
1682 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
1683 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
1684
1685 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
1686 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
1687
1688 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
1689 effect.
1690
1691 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
1692
1693 [Steve Henson]
1694
1695 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
1696 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
1697 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
1698 algorithms and include tests cases.
1699 [Steve Henson]
1700
1701 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
1702 enveloped data.
1703 [Steve Henson]
1704
1705 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
1706 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
1707 [Steve Henson]
1708
1709 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1710 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1711
1712 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
1713 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
1717 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
1718 failures.
1719 [Steve Henson]
1720
1721 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
1722 sign or verify all in one operation.
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporating all the algorithm
1726 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
1727 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
1728 [Steve Henson]
1729
1730 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
1731 [Steve Henson]
1732
1733 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
1734 [Steve Henson]
1735
1736 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
1737 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
1738 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
1739 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
1740 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
1741 [Steve Henson]
1742
1743 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
1744 based on NID.
1745 [Steve Henson]
1746
1747 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
1748 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
1749 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
1750 [Steve Henson]
1751
1752 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
1753 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
1754
1755 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
1756 POST to handle HMAC cases.
1757 [Steve Henson]
1758
1759 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
1760 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
1761 [Steve Henson]
1762
1763 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
1764 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
1765 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1766 [Steve Henson]
1767
1768 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
1769 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
1770 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
1771 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
1772 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
1773 requested amount of entropy.
1774 [Steve Henson]
1775
1776 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
1777 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
1778 [Steve Henson]
1779
1780 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
1781 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
1782 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
1783 support.
1784 [Steve Henson]
1785
1786 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
1787 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
1788 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
1789 [Steve Henson]
1790
1791 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
1792 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
1793 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
1794 will never use XTS mode.
1795 [Steve Henson]
1796
1797 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
1798 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
1799 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
1800 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
1801 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
1802 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
1803 [Steve Henson]
1804
1805 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
1806 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
1807 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
1808 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
1809 [Steve Henson]
1810
1811 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
1812 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
1813 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
1817 [Steve Henson]
1818
1819 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
1820 [Steve Henson]
1821
1822 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
1823 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
1827 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
1831 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
1832 [Steve Henson]
1833
1834 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
1835 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
1836 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
1837 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
1838 and rename any affected symbols.
1839 [Steve Henson]
1840
1841 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
1842 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
1843 [Steve Henson]
1844
1845 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
1846 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
1847 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
1848 [Steve Henson]
1849
1850 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1851 [Steve Henson]
1852
1853 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
1854 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
1855 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
1856 [Steve Henson]
1857
1858 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
1859 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
1863 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
1864 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
1865 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
1866 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
1867 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
1868 set before the key.
1869 [Steve Henson]
1870
1871 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
1872 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
1873 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
1874 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
1875 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
1876 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
1877 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
1878 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
1879 [Steve Henson]
1880
1881 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
1882 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
1883 [Steve Henson]
1884
1885 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
1886
1887 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
1888 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
1889
1890 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
1891 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
1892 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
1893 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
1894 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
1895 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
1896
1897 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
1898 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
1899 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
1900 security.
1901 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1902
1903 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
1904 parameters by name.
1905 [Steve Henson]
1906
1907 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
1908 Add CMAC pkey methods.
1909 [Steve Henson]
1910
1911 *) Experimental renegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
1912 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
1913 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
1914 [Steve Henson]
1915
1916 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
1917 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
1918 multi-process servers.
1919 [Steve Henson]
1920
1921 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
1922 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
1923 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
1924 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
1925 RAND_METHOD structure.
1926 [Steve Henson]
1927
1928 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
1929 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
1930 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
1931 whose return value is often ignored.
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) New -noct, -requestct, -requirect and -ctlogfile options for s_client.
1935 These allow SCTs (signed certificate timestamps) to be requested and
1936 validated when establishing a connection.

1939 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
1940
1941 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
1942
1943 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
1944 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
1945 AES-NI.
1946
1947 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
1948 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
1949 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
1950 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
1951 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
1952 bytes.
1953
1954 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
1955 (CVE-2016-2107)
1956 [Kurt Roeckx]
1957
1958 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
1959
1960 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
1961 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
1962 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
1963 corruption.
1964
1965 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarily used by
1966 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
1967 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
1968 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
1969 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
1970 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
1971
1972 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
1973 (CVE-2016-2105)
1974 [Matt Caswell]
1975
1976 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
1977
1978 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
1979 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
1980 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
1981 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
1982 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
1983 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
1984 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
1985 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
1986 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
1987 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
1988 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
1989 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
1990 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
1991 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
1992 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
1993 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
1994
1995 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.

1999 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
2000
2001 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
2002 a short invalid encoding can cause allocation of large amounts of memory
2003 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
2004
2005 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
2006 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
2007 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
2008 applications are not affected.

2013
2014 *) EBCDIC overread
2015
2016 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
2017 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
2018 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.

2036 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
2037
2038 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
2039 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
2040 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
2041 [Viktor Dukhovni]
2042
2043 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
2044 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
2045 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
2046 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
2047 will need to explicitly call either of:
2048
2049 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2050 or
2051 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
2052
2053 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
2054 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
2055 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
2056 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
2057 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.

2060
2061 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
2062
2063 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
2064 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
2065 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
2066 considered rare.
2067
2068 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
2069 libFuzzer.
2070 (CVE-2016-0705)
2071 [Stephen Henson]
2072
2073 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
2074
2075 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
2076
2077 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
2078 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
2079 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
2080 is configured.
2081
2082 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
2083 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
2084 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
2085 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
2086 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
2087 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
2088 that of a valid user.
2089 (CVE-2016-0798)
2090 [Emilia Käsper]
2091
2092 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
2093
2094 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
2095 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
2096 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
2097 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
2098 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
2099 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
2100 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
2101 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
2102 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
2103 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
2104 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
2105
2106 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
2107 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
2108 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
2109 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
2110 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
2111
2112 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
2113 (CVE-2016-0797)
2114 [Matt Caswell]
2115
2116 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
2117
2118 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
2119 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
2120 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
2121
2122 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
2123 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
2124 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
2125 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
2126 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
2127 also occur.
2128
2129 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
2130 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
2131 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
2132 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
2133 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
2134 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
2135 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
2136 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
2137 as command line arguments.
2138
2139 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
2140 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
2141 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
2142
2143 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
2144 (CVE-2016-0799)
2145 [Matt Caswell]
2146
2147 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
2148
2149 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
2150 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
2151 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
2152 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
2153 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
2154
2155 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
2156 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
2157 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
2158 http://cachebleed.info.

2163 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
2164 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
2165 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
2166 [Emilia Käsper]
2167
2168 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
2169 *) DH small subgroups
2170
2171 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
2172 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
2173 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
2174 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
2175 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
2176 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
2177 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
2178 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
2179 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
2180 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
2181
2182 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
2183 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
2184 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
2185 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
2186 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
2187
2188 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
2189 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
2190 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
2191 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
2192
2193 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
2194 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
2195
2196 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).

2199
2200 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
2201
2202 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
2203 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
2204 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
2205 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
2206
2207 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
2208 and Sebastian Schinzel.

2213
2214 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
2215
2216 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
2217 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
2218 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
2219 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
2220 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
2221 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
2222 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
2223 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
2224 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
2225 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
2226 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
2227 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

2233 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
2234
2235 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2236 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2237 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
2238 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
2239 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
2240 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
2241 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
2242 authentication.

2249
2250 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
2251 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
2252 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
2253 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.

2271
2272 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
2273
2274 During certificate verification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
2275 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
2276 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
2277 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
2278 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
2279 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.

2295
2296 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
2297 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
2298 field.
2299
2300 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
2301 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
2302 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
2303 client authentication enabled.

2308
2309 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
2310
2311 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
2312 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
2313 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
2314 time string.
2315
2316 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
2317 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
2318 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
2319 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
2320 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
2321 callbacks.

2329
2330 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
2331 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
2332 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2333
2334 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
2335 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and

2368
2369 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an

2374 University.
2375 (CVE-2015-0291)
2376 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
2377
2378 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
2379
2380 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
2381 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
2382 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
2383 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
2384 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
2385 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
2386 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
2387 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
2388
2389 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
2390 (CVE-2015-0290)
2391 [Matt Caswell]
2392
2393 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
2394
2395 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
2396 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
2397 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
2398 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
2399 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
2400 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
2401 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
2402 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
2403 server.

2409 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
2410
2411 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
2412 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
2413 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
2414 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2415 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2416 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
2417 (CVE-2015-0286)
2418 [Stephen Henson]
2419
2420 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
2421
2422 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
2423 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
2424 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
2425 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
2426 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
2427 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
2428 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.

2433
2434 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
2435
2436 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
2437 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
2438 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
2439
2440 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
2441 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
2442 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are

2451 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
2452
2453 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or

2480 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
2481
2482 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
2483 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
2484 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
2485 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
2486 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
2487 SSL_client_methodv23)
2488 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
2489 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
2490
2491 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
2492 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
2493 output may be predictable.
2494
2495 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
2496 succeed on an unpatched platform:
2497
2498 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
2499 (CVE-2015-0285)
2500 [Matt Caswell]
2501
2502 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
2503
2504 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
2505 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
2506 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
2507 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
2508 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
2509 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
2510
2511 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
2512 commit 517073cd4b.
2513 (CVE-2015-0209)
2514 [Matt Caswell]
2515
2516 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
2517
2518 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
2519 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
2520
2521 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
2522 (CVE-2015-0288)
2523 [Stephen Henson]
2524
2525 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
2526 [Kurt Roeckx]
2527
2528 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
2529
2530 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
2531 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
2532 So far those who have to target multiple platforms would compromise
2533 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
2534 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
2535 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
2536 [Andy Polyakov]
2537
2538 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
2539 (other platforms pending).
2540 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
2541
2542 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
2543 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
2544 [Rob Stradling]
2545
2546 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
2547 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
2548 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
2549 [Bodo Moeller]
2550
2551 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
2552 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
2553 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
2554 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
2555 [Andy Polyakov]
2556
2557 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
2558 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
2559
2560 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
2561 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
2562 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
2563 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
2564 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
2565
2566 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
2567 [Andy Polyakov]
2568
2569 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
2570 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
2571 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
2572 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
2573
2574 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
2575 RSAZ.
2576 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
2577
2578 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
2579 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
2580 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
2581 for TLS encrypt.
2582
2583 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
2584 [Andy Polyakov]
2585
2586 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
2587 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
2588 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
2589 [Steve Henson]
2590
2591 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
2592 this fixes a limitation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
2593 [Steve Henson]
2594
2595 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
2596 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
2597 [Steve Henson]
2598
2599 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
2600 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
2601 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
2602 algorithms and include tests cases.
2603 [Steve Henson]
2604
2605 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
2606 structure.
2607 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
2608
2609 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
2610 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
2611 [Steve Henson]
2612
2613 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
2614 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
2615 summary of the connection parameters.
2616 [Steve Henson]
2617
2618 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
2619 of connection parameters.
2620 [Steve Henson]
2621
2622 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
2623 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
2624
2625 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
2626 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
2627 [Steve Henson]
2628
2629 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
2630 [Steve Henson]
2631
2632 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
2633 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
2634 [Steve Henson]
2635
2636 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
2637 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
2638 [Steve Henson]
2639
2640 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
2641 certificates.
2642 [Steve Henson]
2643
2644 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
2645 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
2646 CRLs using the OCSP API.
2647 [Steve Henson]
2648
2649 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
2650 [Steve Henson]
2651
2652 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
2653 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
2654 [Steve Henson]
2655
2656 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
2657 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
2658 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
2659 tracing.
2660 [Steve Henson]
2661
2662 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
2663 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
2664 [Steve Henson]
2665
2666 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
2667 OID NID.
2668 [Steve Henson]
2669
2670 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
2671 client to OpenSSL.
2672 [Steve Henson]
2673
2674 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
2675 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
2676 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
2677 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
2678 [Steve Henson]
2679
2680 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
2681 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
2682 [Steve Henson]
2683
2684 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
2685 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
2686 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
2687 comparison.
2688 [Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
2691 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
2692 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
2693 use the certificate.
2694 [Steve Henson]
2695
2696 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
2697 [Steve Henson]
2698
2699 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
2700 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
2701 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
2702 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
2703 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
2704 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
2705 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
2706
2707 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
2708 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
2709
2710 [Steve Henson]
2711
2712 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
2713 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
2714 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
2715 [Steve Henson]
2716
2717 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
2718 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
2719 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
2720 supported signature algorithms.
2721 [Steve Henson]
2722
2723 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
2724 [Steve Henson]
2725
2726 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
2727 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
2728 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
2729 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
2730 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
2731 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
2732 certificate and specify the whole chain.
2733 [Steve Henson]
2734
2735 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
2736 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
2737 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
2738 to have similar checks in it.
2739
2740 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
2741 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
2742 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
2743 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
2744 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
2745 [Steve Henson]
2746
2747 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
2748 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
2749 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
2750 shared signature algorithms.
2751 [Steve Henson]
2752
2753 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
2754 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
2755 to support them.
2756 [Steve Henson]
2757
2758 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
2759 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
2760 it couldn't be removed.
2761 [Steve Henson]
2762
2763 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
2764 verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
2765 [Steve Henson]
2766
2767 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
2768 functions. Add manual page.
2769 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
2770
2771 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
2772 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
2773 a certificate.
2774 [Steve Henson]
2775
2776 *) Fix OCSP checking.
2777 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
2778
2779 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
2780 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
2781 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
2782 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
2783 utility) or reject.
2784 [Steve Henson]
2785
2786 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
2787 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
2788 [Steve Henson]
2789
2790 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
2791 platform support for Linux and Android.
2792 [Andy Polyakov]
2793
2794 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
2795 [Andy Polyakov]
2796
2797 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
2798 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
2799 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
2800 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
2801 (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
2802 [Steve Henson]
2803
2804 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
2805 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
2806 the new parameter format automatically.
2807 [Steve Henson]
2808
2809 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
2810 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
2811 [Steve Henson]
2812
2813 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
2814 [Steve Henson]
2815
2816 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
2817 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
2818 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
2819 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
2820 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
2821 [Steve Henson]
2822
2823 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
2824 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
2825 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
2826 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
2827 to set list of supported curves.
2828 [Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
2831 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
2832 to print out received values.
2833 [Steve Henson]
2834
2835 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
2836 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
2837 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
2838 [Steve Henson]
2839
2840 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
2841 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
2842 [Steve Henson]
2843
2844 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
2845 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
2846 [Steve Henson]
2847
2848 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
2849 certificates.
2850 [Steve Henson]
2851
2852 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
2853 the certificate.
2854 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
2855 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
2856 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
2857
2858 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
2859
2860 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
2861 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
2862
2863 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
2864
2865 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
2866 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
2867 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
2868 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
2869 (CVE-2014-3571)
2870 [Steve Henson]
2871
2872 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
2873 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
2874 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
2875 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
2876 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
2877 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
2878 (CVE-2015-0206)
2879 [Matt Caswell]
2880
2881 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
2882 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
2883 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
2884 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
2885 (CVE-2014-3569)
2886 [Kurt Roeckx]
2887
2888 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
2889 ECDH ciphersuites.
2890
2891 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
2892 reporting this issue.
2893 (CVE-2014-3572)
2894 [Steve Henson]
2895
2896 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
2897 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
2898 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
2899 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
2900 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
2901 INRIA or reporting this issue.
2902 (CVE-2015-0204)
2903 [Steve Henson]
2904
2905 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
2906 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
2907 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
2908 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
2909 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
2910 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
2911 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
2912 this issue.
2913 (CVE-2015-0205)
2914 [Steve Henson]
2915
2916 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
2917 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
2918
2919 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
2920 and can vary with the CTX.
2921 [Adam Langley]
2922
2923 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
2924
2925 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
2926 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
2927 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
2928 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
2929 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
2930
2931 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
2932
2933 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
2934 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
2935
2936 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
2937
2938 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
2939 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
2940 errors for some broken certificates.
2941
2942 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
2943
2944 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
2945
2946 Re-encode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
2947 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
2948
2949 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
2950 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
2951 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
2952 (negative or with leading zeroes).
2953
2954 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
2955 of the OpenSSL core team.
2956
2957 (CVE-2014-8275)
2958 [Steve Henson]
2959
2960 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
2961 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
2962 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
2963 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
2964 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
2965 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
2966 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
2967 the OpenSSL core team.
2968 (CVE-2014-3570)
2969 [Andy Polyakov]
2970
2971 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
2972 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
2973 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
2974 sanity and breaks all known clients.
2975 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
2976
2977 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
2978 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
2979 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
2980 [Emilia Käsper]
2981
2982 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
2983 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
2984 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
2985 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
2986 announced in the initial ServerHello.
2987
2988 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
2989 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
2990 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
2991 [Emilia Käsper]
2992
2993 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
2994
2995 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
2996
2997 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
2998 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
2999 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
3000 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
3001 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
3002 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
3003 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
3004
3005 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
3006 (CVE-2014-3513)
3007 [OpenSSL team]
3008
3009 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
3010
3011 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
3012 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
3013 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
3014 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
3015 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
3016 attack.
3017 (CVE-2014-3567)
3018 [Steve Henson]
3019
3020 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
3021
3022 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
3023 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
3024 configured to send them.
3025 (CVE-2014-3568)
3026 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
3027
3028 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
3029 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
3030 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
3031 (CVE-2014-3566)
3032 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3033
3034 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
3035
3036 Re-encode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
3037 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
3038 DigestInfo structures.
3039
3040 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.

3042 [Steve Henson]
3043
3044 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
3045
3046 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
3047 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
3048 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
3049
3050 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
3051 Group for discovering this issue.
3052 (CVE-2014-3512)
3053 [Steve Henson]
3054
3055 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
3056 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
3057 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
3058 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
3059 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
3060
3061 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
3062 researching this issue.
3063 (CVE-2014-3511)
3064 [David Benjamin]
3065
3066 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
3067 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
3068 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
3069 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
3070
3071 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
3072 issue.
3073 (CVE-2014-3510)
3074 [Emilia Käsper]
3075
3076 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
3077 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3078 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3079 (CVE-2014-3507)
3080 [Adam Langley]
3081
3082 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
3083 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
3084 Denial of Service attack.
3085 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
3086 (CVE-2014-3506)
3087 [Adam Langley]
3088
3089 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
3090 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
3091 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
3092 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
3093 this issue.
3094 (CVE-2014-3505)
3095 [Adam Langley]
3096
3097 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
3098 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
3099 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
3100
3101 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
3102 issue.
3103 (CVE-2014-3509)
3104 [Gabor Tyukasz]
3105
3106 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
3107 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
3108 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
3109 Denial of Service attack.
3110
3111 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
3112 discovering and researching this issue.
3113 (CVE-2014-5139)
3114 [Steve Henson]
3115
3116 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
3117 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
3118 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
3119 output to the attacker.
3120
3121 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
3122 (CVE-2014-3508)
3123 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
3124
3125 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
3126 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
3127 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
3128 [Bodo Moeller]
3129
3130 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
3131
3132 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
3133 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
3134 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
3135
3136 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
3137 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
3138 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
3139
3140 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
3141 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
3142 in a DoS attack.
3143
3144 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
3145 (CVE-2014-0221)
3146 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
3147
3148 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
3149 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
3150 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
3151 code on a vulnerable client or server.
3152
3153 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
3154 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
3155
3156 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
3157 are subject to a denial of service attack.
3158
3159 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
3160 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
3161 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
3162
3163 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
3164 compilation flags.
3165 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3166
3167 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
3168 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
3169 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3170
3171 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
3172 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
3173
3174 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
3175
3176 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
3177 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
3178 server.
3179
3180 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
3181 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
3182 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
3183 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
3184
3185 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
3186 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
3187 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
3188 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
3189
3190 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
3191 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
3192 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
3193
3194 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
3195
3196 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
3197 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
3198 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
3199 is at least 512 bytes long.
3200
3201 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
3202
3203 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
3204
3205 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
3206 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
3207 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
3208 (CVE-2013-4353)
3209
3210 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
3211 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
3212 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
3213 [Steve Henson]
3214
3215 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
3216 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
3217 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
3218 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
3219 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
3220 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
3221 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
3222
3223 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
3224
3225 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
3226 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
3227 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3228
3229 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
3230
3231 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
3232
3233 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
3234 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
3235 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
3236
3237 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information

3241 (CVE-2013-0169)
3242 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3243
3244 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
3245 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
3246 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
3247 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger

3249 (CVE-2012-2686)
3250 [Adam Langley]

3252 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
3253 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
3254 [Steve Henson]
3255
3256 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
3257 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3258
3259 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
3260 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
3261 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
3262 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.

3264
3265 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
3266 [Steve Henson]
3267
3268 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
3269 if renegotiating.
3270 [Steve Henson]
3271
3272 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
3273
3274 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
3275 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
3276
3277 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
3278 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
3279 (CVE-2012-2333)
3280 [Steve Henson]
3281
3282 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
3283 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
3284 [Steve Henson]
3285
3286 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
3287 approved.
3288 [Steve Henson]
3289
3290 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
3291
3292 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
3293 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
3294 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
3295 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
3296 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
3297 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
3298 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
3299 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
3300 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
3301 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
3302 [Steve Henson]
3303
3304 *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
3305 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
3306 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
3307 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
3308 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
3309 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
3310 client side.
3311 [Andy Polyakov]
3312
3313 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
3314
3315 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
3316 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
3317 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
3318
3319 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
3320 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
3321 (CVE-2012-2110)
3322 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
3323
3324 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
3325 [Adam Langley]
3326
3327 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
3328 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
3329
3330 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
3331 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
3332 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
3333 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
3334 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
3335 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
3336 Most broken servers should now work.
3337 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
3338 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
3339 [Steve Henson]
3340
3341 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
3342 [Andy Polyakov]
3343
3344 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
3345
3346 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
3347 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
3348 [Steve Henson]
3349
3350 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
3351 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
3352 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
3353 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
3354 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
3355 [Steve Henson]
3356
3357 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
3358 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
3359 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
3360 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
3361 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
3362 [Steve Henson]
3363
3364 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
3365 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3366
3367 *) Add support for SCTP.
3368 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3369
3370 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3371 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3372
3373 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
3374
3375 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
3376 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
3377 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
3378 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
3379 - s390x: z196 support;
3380 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
3381
3382 [Andy Polyakov]
3383
3384 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
3385 (removal of unnecessary code)
3386 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
3387
3388 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
3389 [Eric Rescorla]
3390
3391 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
3392 [Eric Rescorla]
3393
3394 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
3395 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
3396 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
3397 by Google.
3398 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
3399
3400 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
3401 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
3402 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
3403 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
3404 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
3405
3406 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
3407 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
3408 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
3409
3410 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
3411 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
3412 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
3413
3414 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
3415 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
3416 implementations).
3417 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3418
3419 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
3420 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
3421 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
3422 [Steve Henson]
3423
3424 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
3425 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
3426 particular PSS.
3427 [Steve Henson]
3428
3429 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
3430 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
3431 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
3432 [Steve Henson]
3433
3434 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
3435 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
3436 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
3437 the appropriate parameters.
3438 [Steve Henson]
3439
3440 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
3441 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
3442 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
3443 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
3444 against a number of sample certificates.
3445 [Steve Henson]
3446
3447 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
3448 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
3449
3450 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
3451 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
3452
3453 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
3454 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
3455 parameters r, s.
3456 [Steve Henson]
3457
3458 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
3459 RFC3211.
3460 [Steve Henson]
3461
3462 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
3463 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
3464 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
3465 password based CMS).
3466 [Steve Henson]
3467
3468 *) Session-handling fixes:
3469 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
3470 but also support Session Tickets.
3471 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
3472 presented a ticket with an expired session.
3473 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
3474 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
3475 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
3476 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3477
3478 *) Fix PSK session representation.
3479 [Bodo Moeller]
3480
3481 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
3482
3483 This work was sponsored by Intel.
3484 [Andy Polyakov]
3485
3486 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
3487 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
3488 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
3489 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to include GCM and
3490 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
3491 [Steve Henson]
3492
3493 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
3494 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
3495 [Steve Henson]
3496
3497 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
3498 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
3499 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
3500 [Steve Henson]
3501
3502 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
3503 as unset and return the appropriate default but do *not* set the default.
3504 This means we can return the appropriate method in applications that
3505 switch between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
3506 [Steve Henson]
3507
3508 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
3509 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
3510 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
3511 [Steve Henson]
3512
3513 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
3514 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
3515
3516 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
3517 [Steve Henson]
3518
3519 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
3520 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
3521 [Steve Henson]
3522
3523 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
3524 [Steve Henson]
3525
3526 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
3527 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
3528 [Steve Henson]
3529
3530 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
3531 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
3532 [Steve Henson]
3533
3534 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
3535 [Steve Henson]
3536
3537 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
3538 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
3539 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
3540 [Steve Henson]
3541
3542 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3543 [Steve Henson]
3544
3545 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
3546 [Steve Henson]
3547
3548 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
3549 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
3550 [Steve Henson]
3551
3552 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
3553 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
3554 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
3555 [Steve Henson]
3556
3557 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
3558 [Steve Henson]
3559
3560 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
3561 and enable MD5.
3562 [Steve Henson]
3563
3564 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
3565 FIPS modules versions.
3566 [Steve Henson]
3567
3568 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
3569 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
3570 until after the certificate request message is received.
3571 [Steve Henson]
3572
3573 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
3574 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
3575 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
3576 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
3577 [Steve Henson]
3578
3579 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
3580 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
3581 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
3582 support yet and no support for client certificates.
3583 [Steve Henson]
3584
3585 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
3586 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
3587 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
3588 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
3589 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
3590 and version checking.
3591 [Steve Henson]
3592
3593 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
3594 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
3595 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
3596 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
3597 [Steve Henson]
3598
3599 *) A long standing patch to add support for SRP from EdelWeb (Peter
3600 Sylvester and Christophe Renou) was integrated.
3601 [Christophe Renou <christophe.renou@edelweb.fr>, Peter Sylvester
3602 <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>, Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu>, and
3603 Ben Laurie]
3604
3605 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
3606 [Steve Henson]
3607
3608 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
3609 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
3610 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
3611
3612 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
3613 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
3614 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
3615 [Steve Henson]
3616
3617 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
3618 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
3619
3620 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
3621 a few changes are required:
3622
3623 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
3624 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
3625 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
3626 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
3627 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
3628 [Steve Henson]
3629
3630 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
3631
3632 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
3633 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
3634 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
3635 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
3636 old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the
3637 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
3638 an MMA defence is not necessary.
3639 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
3640 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
3641 [Steve Henson]
3642
3643 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
3644 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
3645 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
3646 [Steve Henson]
3647
3648 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
3649
3650 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
3651 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
3652 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
3653 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
3654 [Antonio Martin]
3655
3656 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
3657
3658 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
3659 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
3660 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
3661 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
3662 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
3663 paper describing this attack can be found at:
3664 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
3665 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
3666 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
3667 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
3668 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
3669 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
3670 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
3671
3672 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
3673 (CVE-2011-4576)
3674 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3675
3676 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
3677 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
3678 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
3679 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3680
3681 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
3682 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
3683
3684 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
3685 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
3686 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
3687 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3688
3689 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
3690 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
3691
3692 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
3693 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3694
3695 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
3696 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3697
3698 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
3699 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
3700 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3701
3702 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
3703 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
3704 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
3705
3706 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
3707 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
3708 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
3709 the last update always remained unused).
3710 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
3711
3712 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
3713 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
3714
3715 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
3716
3717 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
3718 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
3719 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
3720
3721 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
3722 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
3723 [Adam Langley (Google)]
3724
3725 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
3726 [Bodo Moeller]
3727
3728 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
3729 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
3730 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
3731 [Steve Henson]
3732
3733 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
3734 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
3735
3736 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
3737
3738 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
3739
3740 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
3741
3742 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
3743 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3744
3745 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
3746 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
3747 ambiguous.
3748 [Steve Henson]
3749
3750 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
3751
3752 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
3753 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
3754 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
3755 [Steve Henson]
3756
3757 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
3758 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
3759 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
3760 [Ben Laurie]
3761
3762 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
3763
3764 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
3765 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
3766 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
3767 [Steve Henson]
3768
3769 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
3770 a DLL.
3771 [Steve Henson]
3772
3773 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
3774
3775 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
3776 (CVE-2010-1633)
3777 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
3778
3779 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
3780
3781 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
3782 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
3783 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
3784 [Steve Henson]
3785
3786 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
3787 [Steve Henson]
3788
3789 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
3790 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
3791 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
3792
3793 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
3794 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
3795 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
3796 [Steve Henson]
3797
3798 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
3799 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
3800 [Steve Henson]
3801
3802 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
3803 some responders need this.
3804 [Steve Henson]
3805
3806 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
3807 correctly.
3808 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3809
3810 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
3811 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
3812 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
3813 [Steve Henson]
3814
3815 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
3816 [Steve Henson]
3817
3818 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
3819 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
3820 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
3821 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
3822 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
3823 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
3824 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
3825 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
3826 [Steve Henson]
3827
3828 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
3829 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
3830 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
3831 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3832
3833 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
3834 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
3835
3836 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
3837 be used on C++.
3838 [Steve Henson]
3839
3840 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
3841 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
3842 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
3843 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
3844 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
3845 attempting to work them out.
3846 [Steve Henson]
3847
3848 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
3849 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
3850 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
3851 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
3852 [Steve Henson]
3853
3854 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
3855 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
3856 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
3857 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
3858 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
3859 [Steve Henson]
3860
3861 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
3862 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
3863 you can do:
3864
3865 openssl sha256 foo
3866
3867 as well as:
3868
3869 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
3870
3871 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
3872
3873 [Steve Henson]
3874
3875 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
3876 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
3877
3878 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
3879 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
3880
3881 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
3882 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
3883 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
3884 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
3885 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
3886 [Steve Henson]
3887
3888 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
3889 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
3890 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
3891 [Steve Henson]
3892
3893 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
3894 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
3895 [Steve Henson]
3896
3897 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
3898 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
3899
3900 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
3901 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
3902 [Steve Henson]
3903
3904 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
3905 [Ben Laurie]
3906
3907 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
3908 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
3909 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
3910 CONF_VALUE.
3911 [Ben Laurie]
3912
3913 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
3914 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
3915 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
3916 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
3917 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
3918 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
3919 [Steve Henson]
3920
3921 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
3922 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
3923
3924 This work was sponsored by Google.
3925 [Steve Henson]
3926
3927 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
3928 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
3929 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
3930 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
3931 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
3932 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications won't
3933 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
3934 default.
3935
3936 This work was sponsored by Google.
3937 [Steve Henson]
3938
3939 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
3940
3941 This work was sponsored by Google.
3942 [Steve Henson]
3943
3944 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
3945 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
3946 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
3947 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
3948
3949 This work was sponsored by Google.
3950 [Steve Henson]
3951
3952 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
3953 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
3954 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
3955 CRL functionality in future.
3956
3957 This work was sponsored by Google.
3958 [Steve Henson]
3959
3960 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
3961
3962 This work was sponsored by Google.
3963 [Steve Henson]
3964
3965 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
3966 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
3967
3968 This work was sponsored by Google.
3969 [Steve Henson]
3970
3971 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
3972 and URI types are currently supported.
3973
3974 This work was sponsored by Google.
3975 [Steve Henson]
3976
3977 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
3978 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
3979 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
3980 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
3981 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
3982 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
3983 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
3984 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
3985
3986 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
3987 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
3988 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
3989
3990 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
3991 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
3992 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
3993 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
3994
3995 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
3996 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
3997 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
3998 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
3999 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
4000 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
4001 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
4002 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
4003 of &errno.)
4004 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
4005
4006 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
4007 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
4008 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
4009
4010 This work was sponsored by Google.
4011 [Steve Henson]
4012
4013 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
4014 [Ben Laurie]
4015
4016 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4017 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
4018 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
4019 [Ben Laurie]
4020
4021 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
4022 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
4023 [Nick Mathewson]
4024
4025 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
4026 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
4027 [Ben Laurie]
4028
4029 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
4030 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
4031 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
4032 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
4033 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
4034 content types and variants.
4035 [Steve Henson]
4036
4037 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
4038 [Steve Henson]
4039
4040 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
4041 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
4042 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
4043 files from the associated perl scripts.
4044 [Steve Henson]
4045
4046 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
4047 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
4048 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4049
4050 *) s390x assembler pack.
4051 [Andy Polyakov]
4052
4053 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
4054 "family."
4055 [Andy Polyakov]
4056
4057 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
4058 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
4059 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
4060 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
4061 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
4062 to use. For example, specify an option
4063
4064 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
4065
4066 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
4067 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
4068 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
4069 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
4070 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
4071 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
4072
4073 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
4074 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
4075 an internal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
4076 return non-zero for success.
4077
4078 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
4079 by using
4080
4081 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
4082 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4083
4084 where
4085
4086 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
4087 void *arg;
4088
4089 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
4090 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
4091 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
4092 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
4093 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
4094 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
4095 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
4096 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
4097 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
4098
4099 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
4100 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
4101 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
4102 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
4103 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
4104 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
4105
4106 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
4107 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
4108 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
4109 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
4110 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
4111 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
4112
4113 [Bodo Moeller]
4114
4115 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
4116 MAC.
4117
4118 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
4119
4120 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
4121 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
4122 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
4123 supported.
4124
4125 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
4126 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
4127 SSL_SESSION.
4128
4129 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
4130 protection in servers so again support should be possible
4131 with no application modification.
4132
4133 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
4134 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
4135
4136 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
4137 or server extensions to be examined.
4138
4139 This work was sponsored by Google.
4140 [Steve Henson]
4141
4142 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
4143 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
4144 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
4145
4146 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
4147 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
4148 ciphersuite support.
4149 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
4150
4151 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
4152 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
4153 to output in BER and PEM format.
4154 [Steve Henson]
4155
4156 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
4157 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
4158 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
4159 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
4160 -macopt options to dgst utility.
4161 [Steve Henson]
4162
4163 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
4164 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
4165 alternative signing parameters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
4166 utility.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
4170 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
4171 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
4172 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
4173 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
4174 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
4175 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
4176 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
4177 enabled again.
4178
4179 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
4180 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
4181 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
4182 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
4183
4184 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
4185 functionality) such that between otherwise identical
4186 ciphersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
4187 the default order.
4188 [Bodo Moeller]
4189
4190 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
4191 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
4192 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
4193 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
4194 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
4195 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
4196 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
4197 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
4198 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
4199
4200 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
4201 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
4202 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
4203 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
4204 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
4205 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
4206 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
4207 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
4208 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
4209 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
4210 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
4211 kinds of kludges.
4212
4213 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
4214 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
4215 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
4216
4217 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
4218 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
4219 "CAMELLIA256".
4220 [Bodo Moeller]
4221
4222 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
4223 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
4224 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
4225 [Nils Larsch]
4226
4227 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
4228 it yet and it is largely untested.
4229 [Steve Henson]
4230
4231 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
4232 [Nils Larsch]
4233
4234 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
4235 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
4236 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
4237 [Steve Henson]
4238
4239 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
4240 [Andy Polyakov]
4241
4242 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
4243 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
4244 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
4245 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
4248 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
4249 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
4250 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
4251 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
4252 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
4253 [Steve Henson]
4254
4255 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
4256 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
4257 [Cryptocom]
4258
4259 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
4260 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
4261 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
4262 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
4263 [Steve Henson]
4264
4265 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
4266 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
4267 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
4268 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
4269 [Steve Henson]
4270
4271 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
4272 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
4273 [Steve Henson]
4274
4275 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
4276 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
4277 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
4278 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
4279 [Steve Henson]
4280
4281 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
4282 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
4283 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
4284 [Steve Henson]
4285
4286 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
4287 utility.
4288 [Steve Henson]
4289
4290 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
4291 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
4292 [Steve Henson]
4293
4294 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
4295 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
4296 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
4297 if necessary.
4298 [Steve Henson]
4299
4300 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
4301 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
4302 to free up any added signature OIDs.
4303 [Steve Henson]
4304
4305 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
4306 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
4307 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
4308 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
4309 [Steve Henson]
4310
4311 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
4312 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
4313 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
4314 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
4315 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
4316 the array representation useful in a more general context.
4317 [Douglas Stebila]
4318
4319 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
4320 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
4321 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
4322 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
4323 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
4324
4325 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
4326 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
4327 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
4328 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
4329 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
4330 protocol).
4331
4332 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
4333 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
4334 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
4335 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
4336
4337 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
4338 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
4339 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
4340 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
4341 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
4342
4343 aECDH - ECDH cert
4344 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
4345 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
4346
4347 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
4348 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
4349
4350 [Bodo Moeller]
4351
4352 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
4353 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
4354 [Steve Henson]
4355
4356 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
4357 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
4358 [Steve Henson]
4359
4360 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
4361 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
4362 functional reference processing.
4363 [Steve Henson]
4364
4365 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enhanced versions of
4366 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
4367 process.
4368 [Steve Henson]
4369
4370 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
4371 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
4372 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
4373 [Steve Henson]
4374
4375 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
4376 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
4377 application to support multiple signers.
4378 [Steve Henson]
4379
4380 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
4381 digest MAC.
4382 [Steve Henson]
4383
4384 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
4385 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
4386 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
4387 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
4388 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
4389 [Steve Henson]
4390
4391 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
4392 new API.
4393 [Steve Henson]
4394
4395 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
4396 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
4397 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
4398 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
4399 a no op.
4400 [Steve Henson]
4401
4402 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
4403 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
4404 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
4405 return value indicates how strong the preference is 1 means optional and
4406 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
4407 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
4408 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
4409 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
4410 [Steve Henson]
4411
4412 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
4413 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
4414 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
4415 between digests and public key types.
4416 [Steve Henson]
4417
4418 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
4419 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
4420 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
4421 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
4422 [Steve Henson]
4423
4424 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
4425 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
4426 key ASN1 method.
4427 [Steve Henson]
4428
4429 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
4430 [Steve Henson]
4431
4432 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
4433 pkeyutl.
4434 [Steve Henson]
4435
4436 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
4437 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
4438 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
4439 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
4440 pkey, genpkey.
4441 [Steve Henson]
4442
4443 *) BeOS support.
4444 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4445
4446 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
4447 manual pages.
4448 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
4449
4450 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analogous to "genrsa" etc except it can
4451 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
4452 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
4453 functionality for RSA.
4454 [Steve Henson]
4455
4456 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
4457 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
4458 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
4459 [Steve Henson]
4460
4461 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
4462 key API, doesn't do much yet.
4463 [Steve Henson]
4464
4465 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
4466 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
4467 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
4468 [Steve Henson]
4469
4470 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
4471 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4472 [Douglas Stebila]
4473
4474 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
4475 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
4476 [Steve Henson]
4477
4478 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
4479 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
4480 type.
4481 [Steve Henson]
4482
4483 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
4484 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
4485 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
4486 structure.
4487 [Steve Henson]
4488
4489 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
4490 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
4491 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
4492 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
4493 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
4494 of public and private key structures.
4495 [Steve Henson]
4496
4497 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
4498 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
4499 [Douglas Stebila]
4500
4501 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
4502 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
4503 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
4504
4505 New ciphersuites:
4506 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
4507 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
4508
4509 New functions:
4510 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
4511 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
4512 SSL_get_psk_identity
4513 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
4514
4515 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
4516
4517 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
4518 and response verification functionality.
4519 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
4520
4521 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
4522 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
4523 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
4524 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
4525 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
4526 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
4527 server_name extension.
4528
4529 New functions (subject to change):
4530
4531 SSL_get_servername()
4532 SSL_get_servername_type()
4533 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
4534
4535 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
4536
4537 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
4538 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
4539 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
4540 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
4541 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
4542
4543 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
4544
4545 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
4546 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
4547 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
4548 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
4549 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
4550 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
4551 option.
4552
4553 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
4554
4555 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
4556 [Andy Polyakov]
4557
4558 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
4559 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
4560 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
4561 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
4562 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
4563 [Andy Polyakov]
4564
4565 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
4566 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
4567 macro.
4568 [Bodo Moeller]
4569
4570 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
4571 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
4572 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
4573 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
4574 [Andy Polyakov]
4575
4576 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
4577 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
4578 Save memory by setting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
4579 using the maximum available value.
4580 [Steve Henson]
4581
4582 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
4583 in addition to the text details.
4584 [Bodo Moeller]
4585
4586 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
4587 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
4588 handle several customised structures at all.
4589 [Steve Henson]
4590
4591 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
4592 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
4593 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
4594 [Steve Henson]
4595
4596 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
4597 [Steve Henson]
4598
4599 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
4600 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
4601 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
4602 [Steve Henson]
4603
4604 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
4605 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
4606 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
4607 [Nils Larsch]
4608
4609 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
4610 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
4611 all fields.
4612 [Steve Henson]
4613
4614 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
4615 [Steve Henson]
4616
4617 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
4618 [NTT]
4619
4620 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
4621
4622 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
4623 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
4624 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
4625 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
4626 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
4627 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
4628 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
4629 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
4630
4631 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
4632 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
4633 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
4634
4635 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
4636
4637 *) Always check bn_wexpand() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
4638 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
4639
4640 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
4641 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
4642 [Bodo Moeller]
4643
4644 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
4645 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
4646 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
4647 [Steve Henson]
4648
4649 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
4650 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
4651 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
4652 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
4653 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
4654 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
4655 [Steve Henson]
4656
4657 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
4658 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
4659 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
4660 [Steve Henson]
4661
4662 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
4663 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
4664 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
4665 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
4666 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
4667 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
4668 CVE-2009-4355.
4669 [Steve Henson]
4670
4671 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
4672 change when encrypting or decrypting.
4673 [Bodo Moeller]
4674
4675 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
4676 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
4677 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
4678 [Steve Henson]
4679
4680 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
4681 [Steve Henson]
4682
4683 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
4684 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
4685 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
4686 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
4687 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
4688 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
4689 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
4690 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
4691 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
4692 [Steve Henson]
4693
4694 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
4695 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
4696 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
4697 [Steve Henson]
4698
4699 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
4700 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
4701 [Steve Henson]
4702
4703 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
4704 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
4705 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
4706 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
4707 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
4708 know what you are doing.
4709 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
4710
4711 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
4712 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
4713 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
4714 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
4715 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
4716 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
4717 the handshake.
4718 [Steve Henson]
4719
4720 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
4721 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
4722 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
4723 correctly.
4724 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
4725
4726 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
4727 warnings in other configurations.
4728 [Steve Henson]
4729
4730 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
4731 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
4732 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
4733 systems need.
4734 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
4735
4736 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
4737 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
4738 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
4739
4740 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
4741 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
4742 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
4743 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
4744 [Steve Henson]
4745
4746 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
4747 and restored.
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
4751 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
4752 clash.
4753 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
4754
4755 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
4756 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
4757 other than a simple chain.
4758 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
4759
4760 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
4761 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
4762 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
4763 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
4764 [Steve Henson]
4765
4766 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
4767 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
4768 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
4769 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
4770 left. Additionally every future message was buffered, even if the
4771 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
4772 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
4773 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
4774 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4775
4776 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
4777 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
4778 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
4779 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
4780 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to determine
4781 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
4782 (CVE-2009-1377)
4783 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
4784
4785 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
4786 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
4787 [Daniel Mentz]
4788
4789 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
4790 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
4791
4792 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
4793 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
4794
4795 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
4796
4797 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
4798 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
4799 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
4800 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
4801 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
4802 you're doing.
4803 [Ben Laurie]
4804
4805 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
4806
4807 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
4808 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
4809 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
4810 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
4811
4812 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
4813 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
4814 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
4815 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
4816
4817 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
4818 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
4819 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
4820 [Steve Henson]
4821
4822 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
4823 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
4824 level.
4825 [Steve Henson]
4826
4827 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
4828 to handle some structures.
4829 [Steve Henson]
4830
4831 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
4832 for a '\n'
4833 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
4834
4835 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
4836 [Matthieu Herrb]
4837
4838 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
4839 [Steve Henson]
4840
4841 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
4842 [Steve Henson]
4843
4844 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
4845 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
4846 chosen compiler.
4847 [Ben Laurie]
4848
4849 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
4850
4851 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
4852 (CVE-2008-5077).
4853 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
4854
4855 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
4856 [Ben Laurie]
4857
4858 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
4859 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
4860 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
4861 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
4862
4863 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
4864 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
4865
4866 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
4867 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
4868 [Bodo Moeller]
4869
4870 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
4871 s_client and s_server.
4872 [Ben Laurie]
4873
4874 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
4875 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
4876
4877 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
4878 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
4879
4880 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
4881 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
4882 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
4883 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
4884 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
4885 [Bodo Moeller]
4886
4887 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
4888
4889 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
4890 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
4891 [PR #1679]
4892
4893 *) Fix a state transition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
4894 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
4895 [Nagendra Modadugu]
4896
4897 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
4898 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
4899 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
4900 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
4901
4902 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
4903 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
4904
4905 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
4906
4907 *) Various precautionary measures:
4908
4909 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
4910
4911 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
4912 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
4913 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
4914
4915 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
4916 outside the expected range.
4917
4918 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
4919 builds.
4920
4921 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
4922
4923 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
4924 the load fails. Useful for distros.
4925 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
4926
4927 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
4928 [Steve Henson]
4929
4930 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
4931 [Huang Ying]
4932
4933 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
4934
4935 This work was sponsored by Logica.
4936 [Steve Henson]
4937
4938 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
4939 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
4940 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
4941
4942 This work was sponsored by Logica.
4943 [Steve Henson]
4944
4945 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: don't set attribute using
4946 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
4947 attribute creation routines such as certificate requests and PKCS#12
4948 files.
4949 [Steve Henson]
4950
4951 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
4952
4953 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
4954 handshake which could lead to a client crash as found using the
4955 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
4956 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
4957
4958 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
4959 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
4960 [Joe Orton]
4961
4962 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
4963
4964 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
4965 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
4966 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
4967
4968 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
4969
4970 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
4971 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
4972 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
4973 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
4974 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4975
4976 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
4977 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
4978 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
4979 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
4980 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
4981 invalid read after the end of 'db').
4982 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
4983
4984 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
4985
4986 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
4987 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
4988 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
4989 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
4990 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
4991
4992 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
4993 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
4994
4995 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
4996 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
4997 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
4998 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
4999 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
5000
5001 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
5002
5003 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
5004 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
5005 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
5006 sets may exist with different names.
5007 [Steve Henson]
5008
5009 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
5010 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
5011 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
5012 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
5013 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
5014 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
5015 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
5016 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
5017 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
5018 implementation.
5019 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
5020
5021 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
5022 implementation in the following ways:
5023
5024 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
5025 hard coded.
5026
5027 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
5028 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
5029 ignored for embedded content.
5030
5031 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
5032 with the enable-cms configuration option.
5033 [Steve Henson]
5034
5035 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
5036 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
5037 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
5038 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
5039
5040 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
5041 uncompresses any data passed through it.
5042 [Steve Henson]
5043
5044 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
5045 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
5046 [Steve Henson]
5047
5048 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
5049 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
5050 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
5051 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
5052 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
5053 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
5054 data.
5055 [Steve Henson]
5056
5057 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
5058 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
5059 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
5060
5061 *) Netware support:
5062
5063 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
5064 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
5065 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
5066 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
5067 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
5068 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
5069 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
5070 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
5071 platform
5072 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
5073 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
5074 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
5075 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
5076 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
5077 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
5078 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
5079
5080 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
5081 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
5082 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
5083 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
5084 to s_client and s_server.
5085 [Steve Henson]
5086
5087 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
5088
5089 *) Fix various bugs:
5090 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
5091 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
5092 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
5093 + Fix ia64 assembler code
5094 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
5095
5096 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
5097
5098 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
5099 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
5100 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
5101 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
5102 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
5103 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
5104 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
5105 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
5106 [Andy Polyakov]
5107
5108 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
5109 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
5110 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
5111 Steve Henson]
5112
5113 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
5114 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
5115 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
5116 supported.
5117
5118 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
5119 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
5120 SSL_SESSION.
5121
5122 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
5123 protection in servers so again support should be possible
5124 with no application modification.
5125
5126 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
5127 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
5128
5129 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
5130 or server extensions to be examined.
5131
5132 This work was sponsored by Google.
5133 [Steve Henson]
5134
5135 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
5136 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
5137 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
5138 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
5139 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
5140 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
5141 server_name extension.
5142
5143 New functions (subject to change):
5144
5145 SSL_get_servername()
5146 SSL_get_servername_type()
5147 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
5148
5149 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
5150
5151 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
5152 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
5153 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
5154 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
5155 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
5156
5157 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
5158
5159 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
5160 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
5161 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
5162 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
5163 negotiation). If the unrecognized_name alert has to be sent, this by
5164 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
5165 option.
5166
5167 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
5168
5169 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
5170 [Steve Henson]
5171
5172 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
5173 [Andy Polyakov]
5174
5175 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
5176 (which previously caused an internal error).
5177 [Bodo Moeller]
5178
5179 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
5180 [Ben Laurie]
5181
5182 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
5183 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
5184
5185 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
5186 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
5187 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
5188
5189 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
5190 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
5191 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
5192 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
5193
5194 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5195 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5196 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
5197 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
5198
5199 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
5200 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
5201 information. For detailed background information, see
5202 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
5203 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
5204 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
5205 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
5206 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
5207 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
5208 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
5209 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
5210 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
5211 remove a conditional branch.
5212
5213 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
5214 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
5215 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
5216 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
5217 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
5218 remains as a deprecated alias.
5219
5220 Similarly, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
5221 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
5222 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
5223 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
5224
5225 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
5226 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
5227 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
5228 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
5229 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
5230 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
5231 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
5232 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
5233
5234 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
5235
5236 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
5237 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
5238 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
5239 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
5240 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
5241 with applications using a single external cache for quite
5242 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
5243 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
5244 in a different context.
5245 [Bodo Moeller]
5246
5247 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
5248 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
5249 authentication-only ciphersuites.
5250 [Bodo Moeller]
5251
5252 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
5253 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
5254 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
5255
5256 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
5257
5258 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
5259 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
5260 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
5261 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
5262 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
5263 [Victor Duchovni]
5264
5265 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
5266 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
5267 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
5268 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
5269 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
5270 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
5271 [Bodo Moeller]
5272
5273 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
5274 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
5275 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
5276 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
5277 message has informed the client about his choice.)
5278 [Bodo Moeller]
5279
5280 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
5281 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
5282
5283 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
5284 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
5285 Improve header file function name parsing.
5286 [Steve Henson]
5287
5288 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
5289 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
5290 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
5291
5292 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
5293
5294 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
5295 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
5296 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5297
5298 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
5299 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
5300
5301 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
5302 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5303
5304 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
5305 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
5306 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
5307
5308 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
5309 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
5310 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
5311 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
5312 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
5313 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
5314 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
5315 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
5316 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
5317
5318 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
5319 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
5320 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
5321 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
5322 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
5323
5324 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
5325 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
5326 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
5327 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
5328 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
5329 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
5330 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
5331 multiple values to extend the available space.
5332
5333 [Bodo Moeller]
5334
5335 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
5336
5337 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
5338 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
5339
5340 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
5341 [Ben Laurie]
5342
5343 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
5344 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
5345 undesirable limitations.
5346 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
5347
5348 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
5349 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
5350 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
5351 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
5352 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
5353 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
5354 to avoid potential handshake problems.
5355 [Bodo Moeller]
5356
5357 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
5358
5359 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
5360 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
5361 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
5362
5363 The latter two were purportedly from
5364 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
5365 appear there.
5366
5367 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
5368 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
5369 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
5370 [Bodo Moeller]
5371
5372 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
5373 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
5374 [Bodo Moeller]
5375
5376 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
5377 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
5378 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
5379 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
5380
5381 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
5382 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
5383 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
5384 [NTT]
5385
5386 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
5387 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
5388 necessarily true if compression is enabled and can result in false
5389 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
5390 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
5391 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
5392 [Steve Henson]
5393
5394 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
5395
5396 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
5397 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
5398 [Steve Henson]
5399
5400 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
5401 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
5402
5403 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5404 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
5405 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
5406 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
5407 [Douglas Stebila]
5408
5409 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
5410 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
5414 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
5415 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
5416 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
5417 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
5418 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
5419 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
5420 can't be loaded.
5421 [Steve Henson]
5422
5423 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
5424 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
5425 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
5426 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
5427 [Steve Henson]
5428
5429 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
5430 under VC++ build system.
5431 [Steve Henson]
5432
5433 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
5434 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
5435 [Richard Levitte]
5436
5437 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
5438
5439 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
5440 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
5441 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
5442 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
5443 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
5444
5445 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
5446 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
5447 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
5448
5449 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
5450 [Steve Henson]
5451
5452 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
5453 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5454 [Nils Larsch]
5455
5456 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
5457 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
5458
5459 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
5460 [Nick Mathewson]
5461
5462 *) Extended Windows CE support.
5463 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
5464
5465 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
5466 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
5467 [Steve Henson]
5468
5469 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
5470 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
5471 smime utility.
5472 [Steve Henson]
5473
5474 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
5475
5476 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
5477 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
5478
5479 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
5480 [Richard Levitte]
5481
5482 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
5483 key into the same file any more.
5484 [Richard Levitte]
5485
5486 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
5487 [Andy Polyakov]
5488
5489 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
5490 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
5491
5492 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
5493 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
5494 [Richard Levitte]
5495
5496 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
5497 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
5498 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
5499 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
5500 this only applies when building 'shared'.
5501 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
5502
5503 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
5504 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
5505 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
5506 [Steve Henson]
5507
5508 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
5509 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
5510 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
5511 - add new function for parameter creation
5512 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
5513 BN_BLINDING parameters
5514 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
5515 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
5516 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
5517 threads.
5518 [Nils Larsch]
5519
5520 *) Add support for DTLS.
5521 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
5522
5523 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
5524 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
5525 [Walter Goulet]
5526
5527 *) Remove buggy and incomplete DH cert support from
5528 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
5529 [Nils Larsch]
5530
5531 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
5532 the apps/openssl applications.
5533 [Nils Larsch]
5534
5535 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
5536 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
5537 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
5538 [Ben Laurie]
5539
5540 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
5541 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
5542
5543 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
5544 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
5545
5546 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
5547 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
5548 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
5549 avoid this algorithm.)
5550
5551 [Bodo Moeller]
5552
5553 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
5554 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
5555 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
5556 [Richard Levitte]
5557
5558 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
5559 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
5560 [Andy Polyakov]
5561
5562 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
5563 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
5564 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
5565 pod file:
5566
5567 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
5568
5569 The blank line is mandatory.
5570
5571 [Steve Henson]
5572
5573 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
5574 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
5575 sources.
5576 [Steve Henson]
5577
5578 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
5579 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
5580
5581 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
5582 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
5583 to support policy checking and print out.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
5587 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
5588 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
5589 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
5590
5591 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
5592 [Geoff Thorpe]
5593
5594 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
5595 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
5596
5597 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
5598 implementation contributed by IBM.
5599 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
5600
5601 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
5602 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
5603 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
5604 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
5605
5606 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
5607 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
5608
5609 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
5610 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
5611 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
5612 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
5613 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
5614 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
5615 [Steve Henson]
5616
5617 *) Reduced header interdependencies by declaring more opaque objects in
5618 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
5619 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
5620 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
5621 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
5622 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
5623 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
5624 [Geoff Thorpe]
5625
5626 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
5627 [Steve Henson]
5628
5629 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
5630 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
5631 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
5632 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
5633 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
5634 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
5635 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
5636 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
5637 [Steve Henson]
5638
5639 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
5640 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
5641 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
5642 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
5643 [Steve Henson]
5644
5645 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
5646 syntax:
5647
5648 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
5649 [Steve Henson]
5650
5651 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
5652 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
5653 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
5654 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
5655 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
5656 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
5657 BN_CTX's "bundling".
5658 [Geoff Thorpe]
5659
5660 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
5661 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
5662 [Geoff Thorpe]
5663
5664 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
5665 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
5666 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
5667 [Steve Henson]
5668
5669 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
5670 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
5671 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
5672 below).
5673 [Geoff Thorpe]
5674
5675 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
5676 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
5677 [Richard Levitte]
5678
5679 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
5680 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
5681 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
5682 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
5683 [Geoff Thorpe]
5684
5685 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
5686 initialised value as BN_new().
5687 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
5688
5689 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
5690 [Steve Henson]
5691
5692 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
5693 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
5694 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
5695 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
5696 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
5697 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
5698 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
5699 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
5700 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
5701 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
5702 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
5703 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
5704 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
5705 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
5706 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
5707
5708 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
5709 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
5710 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
5711 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
5712 [Geoff Thorpe]
5713
5714 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
5715 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
5716 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
5717 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
5718 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
5719 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
5720 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
5721 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
5722 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
5723 [Geoff Thorpe]
5724
5725 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
5726 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
5727 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
5728 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
5729 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
5730 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
5731 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
5732 [Geoff Thorpe]
5733
5734 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
5735 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
5736 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
5737 these have been updated also.
5738 [Geoff Thorpe]
5739
5740 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
5741 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addition into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
5742 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
5743 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
5744 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
5745 functions.
5746 [Steve Henson]
5747
5748 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
5749 structure of type "other".
5750 [Steve Henson]
5751
5752 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
5753 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
5754 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
5755 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
5756 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
5757 situation in the script.
5758 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5759
5760 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
5761 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
5762 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
5763 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
5764 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
5765 used as premaster secret.
5766 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5767
5768 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
5769 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
5770 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
5771
5772 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
5773 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
5774
5775 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
5776 control of the error stack.
5777 [Richard Levitte]
5778
5779 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
5780 [Richard Levitte]
5781
5782 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
5783 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
5784 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
5785 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
5786 [Richard Levitte]
5787
5788 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
5789 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
5790 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
5791 [Richard Levitte]
5792
5793 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
5794 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
5795 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
5796 a memory area.
5797 [Richard Levitte]
5798
5799 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
5800 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
5801 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
5802 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
5803 [Richard Levitte]
5804
5805 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
5806 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
5807 the following flags are defined:
5808
5809 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
5810 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
5811 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
5812 number.
5813
5814 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
5815 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
5816 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
5817 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
5818 returns zero.
5819 [Richard Levitte]
5820
5821 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
5822 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
5823 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
5824 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
5825 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
5826 [Richard Levitte]
5827
5828 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
5829 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
5830 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
5831 [Richard Levitte]
5832
5833 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
5834 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
5835 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
5836 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
5837 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
5838 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
5839 [Richard Levitte]
5840
5841 *) Generate multi-valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
5842 req and dirName.
5843 [Steve Henson]
5844
5845 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
5846 [Steve Henson]
5847
5848 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
5849 [Steve Henson]
5850
5851 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
5852 [Steve Henson]
5853
5854 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
5855 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
5856 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
5857 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
5858 default implementation more easily.
5859 [Geoff Thorpe]
5860
5861 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
5862 in config files.
5863 [Steve Henson]
5864
5865 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
5866 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
5867 [Richard Levitte]
5868
5869 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
5870 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
5871 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
5872 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
5873
5874 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
5875 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
5876 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
5877 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
5878 [Steve Henson]
5879
5880 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
5881 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
5882 to do it.
5883 [Richard Levitte]
5884
5885 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
5886 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
5887 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
5888 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
5889 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
5890 scalar * generator).
5891 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
5892
5893 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
5894 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
5895 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
5896 correctly.
5897 [Steve Henson]
5898
5899 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
5900 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
5901 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
5902 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
5903 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
5904 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
5905 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
5906 linker additions, eg;
5907 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
5908 [Geoff Thorpe]
5909
5910 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
5911 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
5912 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
5913 [Geoff Thorpe]
5914
5915 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5916 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5917 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
5918 via PR#459)
5919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5920
5921 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
5922 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
5923 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
5924 also be overridden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
5925 [Geoff Thorpe]
5926
5927 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
5928 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
5929 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
5930 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
5931 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
5932 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
5933 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
5934 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
5935 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
5936 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
5937
5938 Example for using the new callback interface:
5939
5940 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
5941 void *my_arg = ...;
5942 BN_GENCB my_cb;
5943
5944 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
5945
5946 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
5947 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
5948 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
5949 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
5950 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
5951 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
5952 */
5953
5954 [Geoff Thorpe]
5955
5956 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
5957 available to TLS with the number defined in
5958 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
5959 [Richard Levitte]
5960
5961 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
5962 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
5963
5964 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
5965 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
5966 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
5967 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
5968
5969 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
5970 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
5971
5972 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
5973 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
5974 well.
5975 [Richard Levitte]
5976
5977 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
5978 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
5979 [Richard Levitte]
5980
5981 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
5982 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
5983 and a macro that behave like
5984 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
5985
5986 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
5987 [Nils Larsch]
5988
5989 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
5990 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
5991 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
5992 if applicable.
5993 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5994
5995 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
5996 [Bodo Moeller]
5997
5998 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
5999 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
6000 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
6001 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
6002 directory engines/.
6003 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
6004 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
6005 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
6006 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
6007 engines, but that can be overridden at configure time through
6008 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
6009 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
6010 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
6011
6012 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
6013 libraries. Adapt Makefile.org.
6014 [Richard Levitte]
6015
6016 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
6017 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
6018
6019 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
6020 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
6021 files while avoiding the low level API.
6022
6023 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
6024 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
6025 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
6026 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
6027
6028 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
6029 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
6030 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
6031 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
6032 instead of the low level API.
6033 [Steve Henson]
6034
6035 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
6036 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
6037 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
6038 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
6039 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
6040 PKCS#7 code.
6041
6042 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
6043 down to the template encoder.
6044 [Steve Henson]
6045
6046 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
6047 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
6048 [Bodo Moeller]
6049
6050 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
6051 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
6052 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
6053 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6054
6055 *) Add ECDH engine support.
6056 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6057
6058 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
6059 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6060
6061 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
6062 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
6063 [Bodo Moeller]
6064
6065 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
6066 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
6067 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
6068 [Bodo Moeller]
6069
6070 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
6071 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
6072
6073 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6074 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6075
6076 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
6077 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
6078 New EC_METHOD:
6079
6080 EC_GF2m_simple_method
6081
6082 New API functions:
6083
6084 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
6085 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
6086 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
6087 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6088 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
6089 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
6090
6091 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
6092 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
6093 enable it).
6094
6095 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
6096 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
6097 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
6098 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
6099 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
6100 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
6101 various internal method names.)
6102
6103 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
6104 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
6105
6106 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6107 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6108
6109 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
6110 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
6111
6112 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
6113 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
6114 methods are undefined.
6115
6116 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6117 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6118
6119 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
6120 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
6121 length of the modulus.
6122
6123 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6124 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6125
6126 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
6127 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
6128
6129 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6130 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6131
6132 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
6133 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
6134 used) in the following functions [macros]:
6135
6136 BN_GF2m_add
6137 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
6138 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
6139 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
6140 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
6141 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
6142 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
6143 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
6144 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
6145 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
6146
6147 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
6148 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
6149
6150 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
6151 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
6152 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
6153 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
6154 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
6155 where
6156 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
6157 This applies to the following functions:
6158
6159 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
6160 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
6161 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
6162 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
6163 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
6164 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
6165 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
6166 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
6167 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6168 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6169
6170 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
6171
6172 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
6173 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
6174
6175 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
6176
6177 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
6178 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
6179 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
6180 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
6181 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
6182
6183 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
6184 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
6185
6186 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
6187 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
6188 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
6189
6190 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
6191 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
6192
6193 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
6194 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
6195 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
6196 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
6197 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6198
6199 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
6200 functions
6201 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
6202 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
6203 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
6204 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
6205 These control ASN1 encoding details:
6206 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
6207 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
6208 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
6209 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
6210 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
6211 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
6212 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
6213
6214 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
6215 functions
6216 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
6217 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
6218 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
6219 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
6220 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6221
6222 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
6223 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
6224 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
6225 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6226
6227 *) Add functions
6228 EC_POINT_point2bn()
6229 EC_POINT_bn2point()
6230 EC_POINT_point2hex()
6231 EC_POINT_hex2point()
6232 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
6233 EC_POINT_oct2point().
6234 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6235
6236 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
6237 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
6238 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
6239 EC_GROUP_get_order()
6240 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
6241 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
6242 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
6243 adding different types of curves.
6244 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
6245
6246 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
6247 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
6248 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
6249 [Bodo Moeller]
6250
6251 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
6252 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
6253
6254 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
6255 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
6256 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
6257 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6258
6259 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
6260
6261 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
6262 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
6263
6264 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
6265 library. Most notably,
6266 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
6267 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
6268 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
6269 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
6270 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
6271 extracted before the specific public key;
6272 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
6273 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6274
6275 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
6276 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
6277 function
6278 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
6279 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
6280 EC_get_builtin_curves().
6281 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
6282 accessed via
6283 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
6284 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
6285 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
6286
6287 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6288 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6289 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6290 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6291 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6292 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6293 differing sizes.
6294 [Richard Levitte]
6295
6296 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
6297
6298 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
6299 sensitive data.
6300 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
6301
6302 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
6303 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
6304 authentication-only ciphersuites.
6305 [Bodo Moeller]
6306
6307 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
6308 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
6309 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
6310 [Victor Duchovni]
6311
6312 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
6313 [Steve Henson]
6314
6315 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
6316 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
6317 [Steve Henson]
6318
6319 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
6320 run algorithm test programs.
6321 [Steve Henson]
6322
6323 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
6324 [Steve Henson]
6325
6326 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
6327 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
6328 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
6329 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
6330 message has informed the client about his choice.)
6331 [Bodo Moeller]
6332
6333 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
6334 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
6335 [Steve Henson]
6336
6337 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
6338
6339 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
6340 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
6341 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6342
6343 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
6344 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
6345
6346 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
6347 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6348
6349 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
6350 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
6351 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
6352
6353 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
6354 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
6355 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
6356 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
6357 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
6358 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
6359 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
6360 [Bodo Moeller]
6361
6362 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
6363
6364 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
6365 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
6366
6367 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
6368 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
6369 undesirable limitations.
6370 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6371
6372 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
6373
6374 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
6375 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
6376 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
6377
6378 The latter two were purportedly from
6379 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
6380 appear there.
6381
6382 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
6383 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
6384 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
6385 [Bodo Moeller]
6386
6387 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occurred on
6388 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
6389 [Bodo Moeller]
6390
6391 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
6392
6393 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
6394 module in FIPS mode.
6395 [Steve Henson]
6396
6397 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
6398 [Steve Henson]
6399
6400 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
6401 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
6402 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
6403 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
6404 [Steve Henson]
6405
6406 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
6407
6408 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
6409 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
6410 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
6411 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
6412 the difference induced by this change.
6413 [Andy Polyakov]
6414
6415 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
6416
6417 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
6418 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
6419 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
6420 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
6421 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
6422
6423 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
6424 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
6425 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
6426
6427 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
6428 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
6429 [Steve Henson]
6430
6431 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
6432 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
6433 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
6434 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
6435 biased k.)
6436 [Bodo Moeller]
6437
6438 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
6439 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
6440 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
6441 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
6442 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
6443
6444 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
6445 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
6446 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
6447 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
6448 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
6449 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
6450
6451 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
6452
6453 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
6454 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
6455 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
6456 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
6457 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
6458 [Bodo Moeller]
6459
6460 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
6461 clients need.
6462 [Steve Henson]
6463
6464 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
6465 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
6466 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
6467 [Steve Henson]
6468
6469 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
6470 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
6471 structures constant.
6472 [Steve Henson]
6473
6474 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
6475
6476 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
6477 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
6478
6479 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
6480 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
6481 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
6482 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
6483 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
6484 some needed definitions.
6485 [Steve Henson]
6486
6487 *) Undo Cygwin change.
6488 [Ulf Möller]
6489
6490 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
6491 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
6492 they must be explicitly allowed in run-time. See
6493 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
6494 [Richard Levitte]
6495
6496 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
6497
6498 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
6499 server and client random values. Previously
6500 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
6501 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
6502
6503 This change has negligible security impact because:
6504
6505 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
6506 data.
6507
6508 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
6509 handshake.
6510
6511 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
6512 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
6513 values.
6514
6515 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
6516 to our attention.
6517
6518 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
6519
6520 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
6521 [Ulf Möller]
6522
6523 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
6524 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
6525 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
6526
6527 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
6528 [Steve Henson]
6529
6530 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
6531 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
6532 [Andy Polyakov]
6533
6534 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
6535 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
6536 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
6537
6538 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
6539 [Steve Henson]
6540
6541 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
6542 this is needed for some certificates that re-encode DNs into UTF8Strings
6543 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or won't issue name rollover
6544 certificates.
6545 [Steve Henson]
6546
6547 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
6548 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
6549 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
6550 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
6551
6552 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
6553 has chosen to ignore this fault)
6554 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
6555 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
6556 been given)
6557 [Richard Levitte]
6558
6559 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
6560
6561 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
6562 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
6563 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
6564 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
6565 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
6566 [Steve Henson]
6567
6568 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
6569 [Steve Henson]
6570
6571 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
6572 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
6573
6574 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
6575 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
6576 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
6577 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
6578 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
6579 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
6580 rather than being initialized to 1.
6581 [Steve Henson]
6582
6583 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
6584
6585 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6586 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6587 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6588
6589 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
6590 (CVE-2004-0112)
6591 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6592
6593 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
6594 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
6595 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
6596 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
6597 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
6598 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
6599 [Richard Levitte]
6600
6601 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
6602 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
6603 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
6604 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
6605 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
6606 for these cases.
6607 [Steve Henson]
6608
6609 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
6610 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
6611 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
6612 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
6613 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
6614 [Steve Henson]
6615
6616 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
6617 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
6618 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
6619 < 0.9.7.
6620 [Steve Henson]
6621
6622 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
6623 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
6624
6625 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
6626 [Steve Henson]
6627
6628 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
6629
6630 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6631
6632 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6633 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6634
6635 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
6636
6637 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6638 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6639
6640 [Steve Henson]
6641
6642 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
6643 exiting on the first error in a request.
6644 [Steve Henson]
6645
6646 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6647 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6648 specifications.
6649 [Steve Henson]
6650
6651 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6652 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6653 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6654 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6655
6656 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6657 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6658 [Richard Levitte]
6659
6660 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
6661 blocks during encryption.
6662 [Richard Levitte]
6663
6664 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
6665 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
6666 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
6667 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
6668 certain size.
6669 [Steve Henson]
6670
6671 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
6672 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
6673 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
6674 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
6675 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
6676 parser.
6677 [Steve Henson]
6678
6679 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
6680
6681 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6682 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6683 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6684 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6685 [Bodo Moeller]
6686
6687 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6688 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6689 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6690 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6691 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6692
6693 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6694 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6695 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6696 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6697 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6698 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6699 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6700 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6701 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6702 [Bodo Moeller]
6703
6704 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
6705 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
6706 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
6707 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
6708 [Geoff Thorpe]
6709
6710 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
6711 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
6712 [Ulf Moeller]
6713
6714 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
6715
6716 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6717 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
6718 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6719 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6720 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6721
6722 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6723 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6724 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6725
6726 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
6727 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
6728 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
6729 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
6730 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
6731
6732 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
6733 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
6734 used by default when no-err is given.
6735 [Richard Levitte]
6736
6737 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
6738 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
6739
6740 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
6741 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
6742 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
6743 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
6744 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
6745
6746 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
6747 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
6748 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
6749 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
6750
6751 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
6752
6753 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
6754
6755 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
6756
6757 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
6758 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
6759 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
6760 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
6761 root is omitted).
6762 [Steve Henson]
6763
6764 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
6765 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6766
6767 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
6768 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
6769 [Steve Henson]
6770
6771 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
6772 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
6773 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
6774 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
6775 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6776
6777 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
6778 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
6779 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
6780 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
6781 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
6782 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6783 followup to PR #377.
6784 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6785
6786 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
6787 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
6788 [Andy Polyakov]
6789
6790 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
6791 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
6792 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
6793 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
6794
6795 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
6796
6797 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
6798 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
6799
6800 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
6801 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
6802 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
6803 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
6804 client and server.
6805 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
6806 PR #377.
6807 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6808
6809 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
6810 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
6811 removed entirely.
6812 [Richard Levitte]
6813
6814 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
6815 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
6816 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
6817 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
6818 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
6819 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
6820 of libcrypto.
6821 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
6822 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
6823 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
6824 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
6825 have to be made anyway).
6826 [Richard Levitte]
6827
6828 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
6829 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
6830 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
6831 [Steve Henson]
6832
6833 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
6834 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
6835 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
6836 [Richard Levitte]
6837
6838 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
6839 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
6840 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
6841
6842 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
6843 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
6844 edit numbers of the version.
6845 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6846
6847 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
6848 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
6849 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
6850
6851 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
6852 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6853
6854 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
6855 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
6856 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6857
6858 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
6859 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6860
6861 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
6862 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6863
6864 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
6865 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6866
6867 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
6868 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6869
6870 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
6871 overflows.
6872 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6873
6874 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
6875 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
6876 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6877
6878 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
6879 representations in a platform independent manner.
6880 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6881
6882 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
6883 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
6884 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6885
6886 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
6887 indents.
6888 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6889
6890 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
6891 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6892
6893 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
6894 full. Fixed.
6895 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6896
6897 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
6898 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
6899 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6900
6901 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
6902 unconditionally).
6903 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6904
6905 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
6906 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6907
6908 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
6909 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6910
6911 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
6912 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6913
6914 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
6915 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6916
6917 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
6918 CBCParameter.
6919 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6920
6921 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
6922 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6923
6924 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
6925 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6926
6927 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
6928 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
6929 exploitable.
6930 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6931
6932 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
6933 the 0.9.6 release series:
6934
6935 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6936 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
6937 (CVE-2002-0657)
6938 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6939
6940 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
6941 [Richard Levitte]
6942
6943 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
6944 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
6945
6946 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
6947 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
6948
6949 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
6950 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
6951 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
6952 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
6953
6954 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
6955 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
6956 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
6957
6958 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
6959 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
6960 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
6961 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6962
6963 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
6964 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
6965 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
6966 some local tweaks:
6967
6968 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
6969 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
6970 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
6971 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
6972 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
6973 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
6974 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
6975 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
6976 done
6977
6978 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
6979 is a good thing. If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
6980 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
6981 [Richard Levitte]
6982
6983 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
6984 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
6985 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
6986 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
6987 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
6988
6989 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
6990 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
6991
6992 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
6993 error in AES-CFB decryption.
6994 [Richard Levitte]
6995
6996 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
6997 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
6998 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
6999 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
7000 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
7001 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
7002 [Steve Henson]
7003
7004 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
7005 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
7006 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
7007 [Steve Henson]
7008
7009 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
7010 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
7011 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7012
7013 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
7014 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
7015 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
7016 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
7017 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
7018 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
7019 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
7020 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7021
7022 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
7023 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
7024 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
7025 ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
7026 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
7027 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
7028 [Steve Henson]
7029
7030 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
7031 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
7032 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
7033 declaration has been changed from
7034 int (*cb)()
7035 into
7036 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
7037 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
7038 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
7039 has been changed into
7040 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
7041
7042 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
7043 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
7044 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
7045
7046 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
7047 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
7048
7049 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
7050 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
7051 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
7052 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
7053 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
7054 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
7055 always load it have also been added.
7056 [Steve Henson]
7057
7058 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
7059 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
7060 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7061
7062 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
7063
7064 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
7065 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
7066 because it couldn't be used for anything.
7067
7068 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
7069 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
7070 command line option can be used to specify an
7071 alternative file.
7072 [Steve Henson]
7073
7074 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
7075 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
7076 [Steve Henson]
7077
7078 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
7079 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
7080 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
7081 [Steve Henson]
7082
7083 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
7084 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7085 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
7086 to work with the new engine framework.
7087 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
7088
7089 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
7090 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7091 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
7092 to work with the new engine framework.
7093 [Richard Levitte]
7094
7095 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
7096 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
7097 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
7098
7099 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
7100 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
7101
7102 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
7103 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
7104 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
7105 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
7106 FORMAT_IISSGC.
7107 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7108
7109 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7110 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7111
7112 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
7113 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
7114
7115 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
7116 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
7117 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
7118 [Ben Laurie]
7119
7120 *) Add new functions
7121 ERR_peek_last_error
7122 ERR_peek_last_error_line
7123 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
7124 These are similar to
7125 ERR_peek_error
7126 ERR_peek_error_line
7127 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
7128 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
7129 still in the error queue.
7130 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
7131
7132 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
7133 like:
7134 default_algorithms = ALL
7135 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
7136 [Steve Henson]
7137
7138 *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
7139 [Steve Henson]
7140
7141 *) New experimental application configuration code.
7142 [Steve Henson]
7143
7144 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
7145 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
7146 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
7147 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
7148
7149 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
7150 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
7151
7152 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
7153 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7154
7155 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
7156 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
7157 [Bodo Moeller]
7158
7159 *) New functions/macros
7160
7161 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
7162 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
7163 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
7164 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
7165
7166 to request calling a callback function
7167
7168 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
7169 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
7170
7171 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
7172 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
7173 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
7174 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
7175 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
7176 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
7177 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
7178 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
7179 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
7180 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
7181
7182 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
7183 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
7184 [Bodo Moeller]
7185
7186 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
7187 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
7188 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
7189 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
7190 the configuration scripts.
7191
7192 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
7193 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
7194 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
7195
7196 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
7197 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
7198
7199 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
7200 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
7201 when reusing an existing buffer.
7202 [Bodo Moeller]
7203
7204 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
7205 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
7206 [Steve Henson]
7207
7208 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
7209 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
7210 [Ben Laurie]
7211
7212 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
7213 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
7214 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
7215 has the same effect.
7216 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
7217
7218 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
7219 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
7220 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
7221 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
7222 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
7223 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
7224 exception.
7225
7226 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
7227 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
7228 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
7229 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
7230
7231 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
7232 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
7233 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
7234 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
7235
7236 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
7237 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
7238 won't work.
7239
7240 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
7241 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
7242 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
7243 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
7244 default), and then completely removed.
7245 [Richard Levitte]
7246
7247 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
7248 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
7249 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
7250 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
7251 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
7252 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
7253 particular extension is supported.
7254 [Steve Henson]
7255
7256 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
7257 to retain compatibility with existing code.
7258 [Steve Henson]
7259
7260 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
7261 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
7262 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
7263 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
7264 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
7265 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
7266 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
7267 requires the destination to be valid.
7268
7269 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
7270 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
7271 [Steve Henson]
7272
7273 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
7274 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
7275 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
7276 [Bodo Moeller]
7277
7278 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
7279 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
7280
7281 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
7282 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
7283 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
7284 of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
7285 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
7286 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
7287 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
7288 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
7289 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
7290 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
7291 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
7292 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
7293 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
7294 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
7295 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
7296 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
7297 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
7298 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
7299 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
7300 the new code.
7301 [Geoff Thorpe]
7302
7303 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
7304 [Steve Henson]
7305
7306 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
7307 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
7308 become part of libeay.num as well.
7309 [Richard Levitte]
7310
7311 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
7312 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
7313 or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
7314 false once a handshake has been completed.
7315 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
7316 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
7317 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
7318 client has followed the request.)
7319 [Bodo Moeller]
7320
7321 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
7322 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
7323 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
7324 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
7325
7326 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
7327 more bits available for options that should not be part of
7328 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
7329 [Bodo Moeller]
7330
7331 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
7332 [Steve Henson]
7333
7334 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
7335 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
7336 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
7337 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7338
7339 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
7340 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7341 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7342
7343 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
7344 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
7345 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
7346 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
7347 [Geoff Thorpe]
7348
7349 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
7350 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
7351 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
7352 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
7353 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
7354 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
7355 [Geoff Thorpe]
7356
7357 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
7358 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
7359 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
7360 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
7361 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
7362 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
7363 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
7364 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
7365 [Geoff Thorpe]
7366
7367 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
7368 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
7369 [Geoff Thorpe]
7370
7371 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
7372 [Ben Laurie]
7373
7374 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
7375 md_data void pointer.
7376 [Ben Laurie]
7377
7378 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
7379 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
7380 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
7381 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
7382 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
7383 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
7384 [Ben Laurie]
7385
7386 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
7387 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
7388 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
7389 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
7390 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
7391 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
7392 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
7393 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
7394 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
7395 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
7396 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
7397 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
7398 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
7399 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
7400 rather than letting it slide.
7401
7402 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
7403 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
7404 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
7405 [Geoff Thorpe]
7406
7407 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
7408 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
7409 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
7410 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
7411 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
7412 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
7413 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
7414 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
7415 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
7416 [Geoff Thorpe]
7417
7418 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
7419 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
7420 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
7421 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
7422 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
7423
7424 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
7425 [Geoff Thorpe]
7426
7427 *) Add EVP test program.
7428 [Ben Laurie]
7429
7430 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
7431 [Ben Laurie]
7432
7433 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
7434 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
7435 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
7436 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
7437 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
7438 [Steve Henson]
7439
7440 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
7441 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
7442 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
7443 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
7444 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
7445 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
7446 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
7447
7448 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
7449 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
7450 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
7451 Usage example:
7452
7453 EVP_MD_CTX md;
7454
7455 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
7456 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
7457 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
7458 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
7459 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
7460
7461 [Ben Laurie]
7462
7463 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
7464 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
7465 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
7466 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
7467 anyway): E.g.,
7468
7469 des_key_schedule ks;
7470
7471 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
7472 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
7473
7474 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
7475 [Ben Laurie]
7476
7477 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
7478 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
7479 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
7480 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
7481 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
7482 functions prevents this.
7483 [Steve Henson]
7484
7485 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
7486 [Ben Laurie]
7487
7488 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
7489 correct _ecb suffix.
7490 [Ben Laurie]
7491
7492 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
7493 revocation information is handled using the text based index
7494 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
7495 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
7496 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
7497 [Steve Henson]
7498
7499 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
7500 [Richard Levitte]
7501
7502 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
7503 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
7504 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
7505 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
7506
7507 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
7508 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
7509
7510 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
7511 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
7512 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
7513 via Richard Levitte]
7514
7515 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
7516 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
7517 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
7518 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
7519 [Geoff Thorpe]
7520
7521 *) Speed up EVP routines.
7522 Before:
7523 encrypt
7524 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
7525 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
7526 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

7531 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
7532 After:

7534 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
7535 decrypt
7536 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
7537 [Ben Laurie]
7538
7539 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
7540 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
7541
7542 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
7543 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
7544 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
7545 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
7546 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
7547 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
7548 [Steve Henson]
7549
7550 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
7551 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
7552 [Richard Levitte]
7553
7554 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
7555 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
7556 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
7557 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
7558
7559 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
7560 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
7561 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
7562 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
7563 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
7564 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
7565 callback.
7566 [Richard Levitte]
7567
7568 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
7569 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
7570 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
7571 and interrupts/cancellations.
7572 [Richard Levitte]
7573
7574 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
7575 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
7576 [Steve Henson]
7577
7578 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
7579 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
7580 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
7581
7582 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
7583 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
7584 kind of callback.
7585 [Richard Levitte]
7586
7587 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
7588 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
7589 than this minimum value is recommended.
7590 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7591
7592 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
7593 that are easily reachable.
7594 [Richard Levitte]
7595
7596 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
7597 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
7598
7599 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
7600
7601 won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
7602 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
7603 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
7604 needed for static libraries under Win32.
7605 [Steve Henson]
7606
7607 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
7608 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
7609 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
7610 [Steve Henson]
7611
7612 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
7613 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
7614 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
7615 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
7616 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
7617 internally such as S/MIME.
7618
7619 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
7620 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
7621 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
7622
7623 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
7624 applications.
7625 [Steve Henson]
7626
7627 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
7628 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
7629 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
7630 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
7631
7632 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7633
7634 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
7635
7636 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
7637 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
7638 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
7639 handling.
7640 [Steve Henson]
7641
7642 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
7643 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
7644 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
7645 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
7646 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
7647 a window system and the like.
7648 [Richard Levitte]
7649
7650 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
7651 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
7652 [Geoff]
7653
7654 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
7655 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
7656 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
7657 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
7658 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
7659 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
7660 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
7661 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
7662 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
7663 ENGINE structure.
7664 [Geoff]
7665
7666 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
7667 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
7668 tag cache.
7669 [Steve Henson]
7670
7671 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
7672 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
7673 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
7674 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
7675 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
7676 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
7677 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
7678 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
7679 [Geoff]
7680
7681 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
7682 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
7683 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
7684 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
7685 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
7686 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
7687 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
7688 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
7689 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
7690 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
7691 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
7692 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
7693 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
7694 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
7695 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
7696 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
7697 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
7698 [Geoff]
7699
7700 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
7701 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
7702 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
7703 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
7704 internal engine_int.h header.
7705 [Geoff]
7706
7707 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
7708 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
7709 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
7710 modify their own ones).
7711 [Geoff]
7712
7713 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
7714 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
7715 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
7716 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
7717 later on via ctrl() commands.
7718 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
7719 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
7720 structural references.
7721 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
7722 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
7723 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
7724 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
7725 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
7726 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
7727 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
7728 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
7729 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
7730 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
7731 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
7732 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
7733 [Geoff]
7734
7735 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
7736 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
7737 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
7738 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
7739 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
7740 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
7741 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
7742 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
7743 [Bodo Moeller]
7744
7745 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
7746 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
7747 [Steve Henson]
7748
7749 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
7750 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
7751 [Steve Henson]
7752
7753 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
7754 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
7755 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
7756 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
7757 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
7758 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
7759 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
7760 [Steve Henson]
7761
7762 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
7763 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
7764 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
7765 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
7766 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
7767
7768 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
7769 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
7770 generator).
7771 [Bodo Moeller]
7772
7773 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
7774
7775 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
7776 operations and provides various method functions that can also
7777 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
7778
7779 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
7780 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
7781
7782 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
7783 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
7784 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
7785
7786 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
7787 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
7788
7789 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
7790 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
7791
7792 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
7793
7794 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
7795 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
7796 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
7797 [Bodo Moeller]
7798
7799 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
7800 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
7801 [Richard Levitte]
7802
7803 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
7804 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
7805 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
7806 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
7807 is 40 of more characters long.
7808 [Steve Henson]
7809
7810 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
7811 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
7812 pointers.
7813 [Steve Henson]
7814
7815 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
7816 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
7817 [Bodo Moeller]
7818
7819 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
7820 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
7821 might.
7822 [Steve Henson]
7823
7824 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
7825
7826 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
7827 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
7828
7829 ASN1 error codes
7830 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
7831 ...
7832 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
7833 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
7834 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
7835 ...
7836 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
7837 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
7838
7839 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
7840 [Bodo Moeller]
7841
7842 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
7843 suffices.
7844 [Bodo Moeller]
7845
7846 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
7847 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
7848 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
7849 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
7850 and
7851 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
7852
7853 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
7854 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
7855
7856 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
7857 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
7858 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
7859 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
7860 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
7861 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
7862
7863 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
7864 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
7865
7866 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
7867 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
7868
7869 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
7870 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
7871
7872 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
7873 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
7874 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
7875 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
7876
7877 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
7878 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
7879
7880 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
7881 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
7882
7883 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
7884 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
7885 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
7886 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
7887 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
7888 [Richard Levitte]
7889
7890 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
7891 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
7892 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
7893 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
7894 [Steve Henson]
7895
7896 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
7897 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
7898 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
7899 trust settings.
7900 [Steve Henson]
7901
7902 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
7903 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
7904 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
7905 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
7906 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
7907 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
7908 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
7909 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
7910 ocsp utility.
7911 [Steve Henson]
7912
7913 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
7914 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
7915 [Steve Henson]
7916
7917 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
7918 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
7919 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
7920 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
7921 [Steve Henson]
7922
7923 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
7924 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
7925 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
7926 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
7927 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
7928 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
7929 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
7930 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
7931 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
7932 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
7933 [Steve Henson]
7934
7935 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
7936 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
7937 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
7938 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
7939 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
7940 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
7941 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
7942 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7943
7944 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
7945 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
7946 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
7947 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
7948 [Richard Levitte]
7949
7950 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
7951 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
7952 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
7953 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
7954 opensslconf.h.
7955 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
7956 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
7957 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
7958 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
7959 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
7960 what is available.
7961 [Richard Levitte]
7962
7963 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
7964 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
7965 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
7966 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
7967 auto incremented.
7968 [Steve Henson]
7969
7970 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
7971 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
7972 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
7973 [Steve Henson]
7974
7975 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
7976 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
7977 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
7978 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
7979 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
7980 [Steve Henson]
7981
7982 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
7983 [Steve Henson]
7984
7985 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
7986 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
7987 option to ocsp utility.
7988 [Steve Henson]
7989
7990 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
7991 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
7992 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
7993 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
7994 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
7995 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
7996 the request is nonce-less.
7997 [Steve Henson]
7998
7999 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
8000 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8001 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
8002 [Bodo Moeller]
8003
8004 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
8005 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
8006 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
8007 [Steve Henson]
8008
8009 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
8010 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
8011 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
8012 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
8013 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
8014 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8015
8016 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
8017 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
8018 appear to exist.
8019 [Steve Henson]
8020
8021 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
8022 additional certificates supplied.
8023 [Steve Henson]
8024
8025 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
8026 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
8027 signature against.
8028 [Richard Levitte]
8029
8030 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
8031 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
8032 AES OIDs.
8033
8034 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
8035 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
8036 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
8037 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
8038 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
8039 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
8040 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
8041 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
8042 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
8043
8044 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
8045 request to response.
8046 [Steve Henson]
8047
8048 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
8049 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
8050 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
8051 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
8052 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
8053 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
8054 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
8055 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
8056 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
8057 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
8058 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
8059 [Steve Henson]
8060
8061 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
8062 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
8063 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
8064 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
8065 [Steve Henson]
8066
8067 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
8068 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8069
8070 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
8071 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
8072 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
8073 [Steve Henson]
8074
8075 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
8076 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
8077 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
8078 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8079 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8080
8081 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
8082 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
8083 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
8084 [Steve Henson]
8085
8086 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
8087 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
8088 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
8089 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
8090 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
8091 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
8092 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
8093 <support@securenetterm.com>]
8094
8095 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
8096 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
8097 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
8098 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
8099 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
8100 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
8101 [Steve Henson]
8102
8103 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
8104 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
8105 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
8106 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
8107 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
8108 printout format cleaned up.
8109 [Steve Henson]
8110
8111 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
8112 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
8113 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
8114 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
8115 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
8116 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
8117 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
8118 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
8119 [Steve Henson]
8120
8121 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
8122 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
8123 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
8124 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
8125 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
8126 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
8127 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
8128 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
8129 [Steve Henson]
8130
8131 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
8132 extensions from a separate configuration file.
8133 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
8134 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
8135 section to use.
8136 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8137
8138 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
8139 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
8140 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
8141 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
8142 [Steve Henson]
8143
8144 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
8145 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
8146 the given serial number (according to the index file).
8147 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
8148 in the index file.
8149 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
8150
8151 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
8152 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
8153 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
8154 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8155
8156 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
8157 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
8158
8159 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
8160 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
8161 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
8162 [Steve Henson]
8163
8164 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
8165 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
8166 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
8167 [Bodo Moeller]
8168
8169 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
8170 file name and line number information in additional arguments
8171 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
8172 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
8173 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
8174 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
8175 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
8176 functions are provided:
8177
8178 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
8179 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
8180 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
8181 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
8182
8183 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
8184 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
8185 extended allocation function is enabled.
8186 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
8187 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
8188 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
8189
8190 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
8191 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
8192 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
8193 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
8194 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
8195 [Geoff Thorpe]
8196
8197 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
8198 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
8199 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
8200 be queried.
8201 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
8202 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, querying stops
8203 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
8204 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8205
8206 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
8207 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
8208 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
8209 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
8210 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
8211 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
8212 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
8213 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
8214 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
8215 [Richard Levitte]
8216
8217 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
8218 provide utility functions which an application needing
8219 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
8220 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
8221 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
8222
8223 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
8224 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
8225 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
8226 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
8227 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
8228 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
8229 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
8230 won't normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
8231 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
8232
8233 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
8234 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
8235 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
8236 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
8237 [Steve Henson]
8238
8239 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
8240 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
8241 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
8242 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
8243 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
8244 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
8245 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
8246 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
8247 will be added elsewhere.
8248 [Steve Henson]
8249
8250 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
8251 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
8252 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
8253 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
8254 [Steve Henson]
8255
8256 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
8257 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
8258 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
8259 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
8260 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
8261 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
8262 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
8263 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
8264 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
8265 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
8266 to produce the required SET OF.
8267 [Steve Henson]
8268
8269 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
8270 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
8271 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
8272 [Richard Levitte]
8273
8274 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
8275 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
8276 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
8277 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
8278 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
8279 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
8280 [Steve Henson]
8281
8282 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
8283 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
8284 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
8285 [Steve Henson]
8286
8287 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
8288 lines, recognize more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
8289 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
8290 [Richard Levitte]
8291
8292 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
8293 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
8294 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
8295 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
8296 code will still work when these eventually go away.
8297 [Steve Henson]
8298
8299 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
8300 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
8301 [Steve Henson]
8302
8303 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
8304 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
8305 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
8306 certificates and CRLs.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
8310 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
8311 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
8312 [Steve Henson]
8313
8314 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add appropriate
8315 entries for variables.
8316 [Steve Henson]
8317
8318 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
8319 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
8320 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
8321 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
8322 [Bodo Moeller]
8323
8324 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
8325 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
8326 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
8327 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
8328 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
8329 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
8330 [Bodo Moeller]
8331
8332 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
8333 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
8334
8335 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
8336 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
8337 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
8338 [Steve Henson]
8339
8340 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
8341 print routines.
8342 [Steve Henson]
8343
8344 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
8345 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
8346 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
8347 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
8348 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
8349 order did not reflect the encoded order.
8350 [Steve Henson]
8351
8352 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
8353 [Steve Henson]
8354
8355 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
8356 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
8357 for now but they will eventually go away.
8358 [Steve Henson]
8359
8360 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
8361 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
8362 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
8363 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
8364 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
8365 has also been converted to the new form.
8366 [Steve Henson]
8367
8368 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
8369 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
8370 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
8371 for negative moduli.
8372 [Bodo Moeller]
8373
8374 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
8375 of not touching the result's sign bit.
8376 [Bodo Moeller]
8377
8378 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
8379 set.
8380 [Bodo Moeller]
8381
8382 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
8383 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
8384 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
8385 type-specific callbacks.
8386 [Geoff Thorpe]
8387
8388 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
8389 RFC 2712.
8390 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
8391 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
8392
8393 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
8394 in sections depending on the subject.
8395 [Richard Levitte]
8396
8397 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
8398 Windows.
8399 [Richard Levitte]
8400
8401 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
8402 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
8403 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
8404 be handled deterministically).
8405 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8406
8407 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
8408 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
8409 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
8410 [Bodo Moeller]
8411
8412 *) New function BN_kronecker.
8413 [Bodo Moeller]
8414
8415 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
8416 positive unless both parameters are zero.
8417 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
8418 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
8419 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
8420 [Bodo Moeller]
8421
8422 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
8423 sign of the number in question.
8424
8425 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
8426
8427 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
8428 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
8429 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
8430 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
8431 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
8432 [Bodo Moeller]
8433
8434 *) New function BN_swap.
8435 [Bodo Moeller]
8436
8437 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
8438 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
8439 results on negative inputs.
8440 [Bodo Moeller]
8441
8442 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
8443 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
8444 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
8445 [Bodo Moeller]
8446
8447 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
8448 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
8449 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
8450 and add new functions:
8451
8452 BN_nnmod
8453 BN_mod_sqr
8454 BN_mod_add
8455 BN_mod_add_quick
8456 BN_mod_sub
8457 BN_mod_sub_quick
8458 BN_mod_lshift1
8459 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
8460 BN_mod_lshift
8461 BN_mod_lshift_quick
8462
8463 These functions always generate non-negative results.
8464
8465 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
8466 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
8467
8468 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
8469 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
8470 be reduced modulo m.
8471 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
8472
8473 #if 0
8474 The following entry accidentally appeared in the CHANGES file
8475 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
8476 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
8477
8478 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
8479 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
8480 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
8481 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
8482 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
8483 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
8484 differing sizes.
8485 [Richard Levitte]
8486 #endif
8487
8488 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
8489 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
8490 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
8491 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
8492 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
8493
8494 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
8495 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
8496 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
8497 cause any problems.
8498 [Bodo Moeller]
8499
8500 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
8501 [Richard Levitte]
8502
8503 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
8504 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
8505 [Richard Levitte]
8506
8507 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
8508 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
8509 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
8510 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
8511 time)
8512 [Richard Levitte]
8513
8514 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
8515 [Richard Levitte]
8516
8517 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
8518 [Richard Levitte]
8519
8520 *) Add the following functions:
8521
8522 ENGINE_load_cswift()
8523 ENGINE_load_chil()
8524 ENGINE_load_atalla()
8525 ENGINE_load_nuron()
8526 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
8527
8528 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
8529 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
8530 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
8531 libraries unless it's really needed.
8532
8533 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
8534 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
8535 declarations (they differed!).
8536 [Richard Levitte]
8537
8538 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
8539 [Richard Levitte]
8540
8541 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
8542 [Richard Levitte]
8543
8544 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
8545 [Bodo Moeller]
8546
8547 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
8548 identity, and test if they are actually available.
8549 [Richard Levitte]
8550
8551 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
8552 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
8553 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
8554
8555 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
8556 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
8557 [Richard Levitte]
8558
8559 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
8560 [Richard Levitte]
8561
8562 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
8563 [Richard Levitte]
8564
8565 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
8566 [Ben Laurie]
8567
8568 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
8569 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
8570 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
8571
8572 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
8573 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
8574 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
8575 different shared library filenames on each system.
8576 [Geoff Thorpe]
8577
8578 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
8579 [Richard Levitte]
8580
8581 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
8582 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
8583 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
8584 of two sections.
8585 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
8586
8587 *) NCONF changes.
8588 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
8589 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
8590 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
8591 binary backward compatibility.
8592 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
8593 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
8594 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
8595 LDAP server.
8596 [Richard Levitte]
8597
8598 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
8599 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
8600 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
8601 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
8602 this case.
8603 [Steve Henson]
8604
8605 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
8606 [Ben Laurie]
8607
8608 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
8609 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
8610 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
8611 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
8612 set.
8613 [Steve Henson]
8614
8615 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
8616 [Richard Levitte]
8617
8618 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
8619
8620 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
8621 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
8622 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
8623
8624 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
8625
8626 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
8627
8628 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
8629 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
8630 [Steve Henson]
8631
8632 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
8633
8634 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
8635
8636 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
8637 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
8638
8639 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
8640 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
8641
8642 [Steve Henson]
8643
8644 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
8645 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
8646 specifications.
8647 [Steve Henson]
8648
8649 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
8650 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
8651 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
8652 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
8653
8654 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
8655 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
8656 [Richard Levitte]
8657
8658 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
8659
8660 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
8661 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
8662 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
8663 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
8664 [Bodo Moeller]
8665
8666 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
8667 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
8668 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
8669 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
8670 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8671
8672 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
8673 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
8674 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
8675 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
8676 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
8677 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
8678 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
8679 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
8680 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
8681 [Bodo Moeller]
8682
8683 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
8684
8685 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
8686 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
8687 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
8688 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
8689 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
8690
8691 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
8692 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
8693 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
8694
8695 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
8696
8697 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
8698 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
8699 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
8700 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
8701 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
8702 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
8703 [Geoff Thorpe]
8704
8705 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
8706 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
8707 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
8708 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
8709 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
8710 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8711
8712 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
8713 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
8714 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
8715
8716 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
8717 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
8718 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
8719 EVP_cleanup().
8720 [Richard Levitte]
8721
8722 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
8723 being properly terminated.
8724 [Richard Levitte]
8725
8726 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
8727 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
8728 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
8729 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
8730
8731 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
8732 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
8733 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
8734 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
8735 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
8736 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
8737 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
8738 change.
8739 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
8740
8741 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
8742 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
8743 [Bodo Moeller]
8744
8745 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
8746 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
8747 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
8748 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
8749 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
8750 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
8751 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
8752 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
8753
8754 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
8755 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
8756 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
8757 (see [openssl.org #212]).
8758 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
8759
8760 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
8761 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
8762 [Steve Henson]
8763
8764 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
8765
8766 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
8767 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
8768 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
8769
8770 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
8771
8772 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
8773 and get fix the header length calculation.
8774 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
8775 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
8776 Steve Henson]
8777
8778 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
8779 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
8780 assertions could call abort()).
8781 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
8782
8783 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
8784
8785 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8786 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8787 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8788 supplied buffer.
8789 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8790
8791 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
8792 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
8793 by the selection routines (PR #130).
8794 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8795
8796 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
8797 [Nils Larsch]
8798
8799 *) New option
8800 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
8801 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
8802 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
8803
8804 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
8805 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
8806 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
8807 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
8808 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
8809 applications.
8810 [Bodo Moeller]
8811
8812 *) Changes in security patch:
8813
8814 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
8815 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
8816 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
8817 F30602-01-2-0537.
8818
8819 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
8820 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
8821 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
8822 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
8823 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
8824
8825 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
8826 happen in practice.
8827 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8828
8829 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
8830 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
8831 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
8832
8833 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
8834 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
8835 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8836
8837 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
8838 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
8839 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
8840
8841 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
8842
8843 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
8844 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
8845 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
8846
8847 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
8848 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
8849
8850 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
8851 an end-of-file condition would erroneously be flagged, when the CRLF
8852 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
8853 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
8854 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
8855 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
8856 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8857
8858 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
8859 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
8860 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
8861 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
8862 [Bodo Moeller]
8863
8864 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
8865 [Bodo Moeller]
8866
8867 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
8868 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
8869 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
8870 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
8871 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
8872 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8873
8874 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
8875 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
8876 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
8877 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
8878 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
8879 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8880
8881 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
8882 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
8883 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
8884 BN_generate_prime().)
8885
8886 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
8887 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
8888 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
8889 better.
8890 [Bodo Moeller]
8891
8892 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
8893 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
8894 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8895
8896 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
8897 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
8898 when using non-blocking I/O.
8899 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
8900
8901 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
8902 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
8903
8904 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
8905 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
8906 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8907
8908 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
8909 configuration for the versions before that.
8910 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
8911
8912 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
8913 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
8914 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
8915 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
8916 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8917
8918 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
8919 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
8920 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
8921 [Lutz Jaenicke]
8922
8923 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
8924 value is 0.
8925 [Richard Levitte]
8926
8927 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
8928 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
8929 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
8930
8931 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
8932 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
8933
8934 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
8935 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
8936 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
8937 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
8938 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
8939 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
8940 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
8941 session cache.
8942
8943 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
8944 using a local variable.
8945 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
8946
8947 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
8948 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
8949 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
8950
8951 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
8952 [Richard Levitte]
8953
8954 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
8955 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
8956
8957 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
8958 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
8959 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
8960
8961 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
8962
8963 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
8964 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
8965 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
8966 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
8967 [Bodo Moeller]
8968
8969 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
8970 present.
8971 [Steve Henson]
8972
8973 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
8974 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
8975 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
8976 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
8977 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
8978
8979 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
8980 returns early because it has nothing to do.
8981 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8982
8983 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8984 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
8985 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
8986
8987 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8988 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
8989 (Use engine 'keyclient')
8990 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
8991
8992 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
8993 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
8994 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
8995 modules).
8996 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
8997
8998 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
8999 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
9000 from 0.9.7.
9001 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
9002
9003 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9004 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
9005 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
9006 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
9007
9008 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
9009 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
9010 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
9011 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
9012
9013 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
9014 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
9015
9016 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
9017 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
9018 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
9019 [Bodo Moeller]
9020
9021 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
9022 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
9023 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
9024 become invalid.
9025 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
9026
9027 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
9028 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
9029 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
9030 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
9031 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
9032 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
9033 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
9034 [Bodo Moeller]
9035
9036 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
9037 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
9038 one of the SSL handshake functions.
9039 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
9040
9041 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
9042 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
9043 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
9044 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
9045 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
9046 the client will at least see that alert.
9047 [Bodo Moeller]
9048
9049 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
9050 correctly.
9051 [Bodo Moeller]
9052
9053 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
9054 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
9055 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
9056
9057 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
9058 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circumvents various
9059 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
9060 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
9061 HelloRequest.
9062
9063 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
9064 before just sending a HelloRequest.
9065 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
9066
9067 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
9068 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
9069 verification error occurred. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
9070 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
9071 may leak via logfiles.)
9072
9073 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
9074 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
9075 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
9076 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
9077 the legal range.
9078 [Bodo Moeller]
9079
9080 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
9081 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
9082 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9083
9084 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
9085 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
9086 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
9087 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
9088 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
9089 [Bodo Moeller]
9090
9091 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
9092 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
9093
9094 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
9095 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
9096 followed by modular reduction.
9097 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
9098
9099 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
9100 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
9101 [Bodo Moeller]
9102
9103 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
9104 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
9105 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
9106 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
9107 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9108
9109 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
9110 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9111
9112 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
9113 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
9114 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9115
9116 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
9117 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
9118 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
9119 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
9120 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
9121 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
9122 automatically.
9123 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
9124
9125 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
9126 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
9127 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
9128 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
9129 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
9130
9131 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
9132 [Andy Polyakov]
9133
9134 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
9135 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
9136 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
9137 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
9138 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
9139 to allow the necessary settings.
9140 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9141
9142 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
9143 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
9144 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
9145 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
9146 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9147
9148 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
9149 dh->length and always used
9150
9151 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
9152
9153 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
9154 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
9155 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
9156 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
9157 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
9158 dh->length.
9159
9160 So switch back to
9161
9162 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
9163
9164 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
9165 otherwise.
9166 [Bodo Moeller]
9167
9168 *) In
9169
9170 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
9171 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
9172 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
9173 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
9174
9175 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
9176 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
9177 always reject numbers >= n.
9178 [Bodo Moeller]
9179
9180 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
9181 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
9182 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
9183 variable) is not atomic.
9184 [Bodo Moeller]
9185
9186 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
9187 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
9188 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
9189 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
9190
9191 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
9192 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
9193
9194 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
9195 little-endian MIPS.
9196 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
9197
9198 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
9199 [Richard Levitte]
9200
9201 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
9202
9203 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
9204 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
9205 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
9206 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
9207 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
9208 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
9209 to traverse all of 'state'.
9210
9211 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
9212 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
9213 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
9214
9215 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
9216 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
9217
9218 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
9219 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
9220 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
9221 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
9222 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
9223 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
9224 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
9225 further strengthens the PRNG.
9226 [Bodo Moeller]
9227
9228 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
9229 [Andy Polyakov]
9230
9231 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
9232 an error message in this case.
9233 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9234
9235 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
9236 [Steve Henson]
9237
9238 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
9239 positive and less than q.
9240 [Bodo Moeller]
9241
9242 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
9243 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
9244 that itself.
9245 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
9246
9247 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
9248 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
9249 [Bodo Moeller]
9250
9251 *) Fix OAEP check.
9252 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
9253
9254 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
9255 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
9256 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
9257 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
9258 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
9259 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
9260 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
9261 paper.)
9262
9263 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
9264 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
9265 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
9266 detect the supposedly ignored error.
9267
9268 Both problems are now fixed.
9269 [Bodo Moeller]
9270
9271 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
9272 (previously it was 1024).
9273 [Bodo Moeller]
9274
9275 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
9276 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
9277 [Steve Henson]
9278
9279 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
9280 [Steve Henson]
9281
9282 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
9283 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
9284 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
9285 [Steve Henson]
9286
9287 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
9288 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
9289 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
9290 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
9291 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
9292 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
9293 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
9294 environment variables.
9295
9296 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
9297 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
9298 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
9299 [Bodo Moeller]
9300
9301 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
9302 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
9303 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
9304 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
9305 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
9306 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
9307 [Bodo Moeller]
9308
9309 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
9310 versions of 'test'.
9311 [Bodo Moeller]
9312
9313 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
9314
9315 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
9316 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
9317
9318 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
9319 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
9320 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
9321 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
9322 CygWin.
9323 [Richard Levitte]
9324
9325 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
9326 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
9327 amount of data available.
9328 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
9329 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9330
9331 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
9332 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
9333 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
9334 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
9335 [Bodo Moeller]
9336
9337 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
9338 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
9339 and UnixWare.
9340 [Richard Levitte]
9341
9342 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
9343 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
9344 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
9345 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
9346 [Ulf Moeller]
9347
9348 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
9349 [Andy Polyakov]
9350
9351 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
9352 [Richard Levitte]
9353
9354 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
9355 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
9356 [Steve Henson]
9357 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9358
9359 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
9360 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
9361 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
9362 (but broken) behaviour.
9363 [Steve Henson]
9364
9365 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
9366 it when found.
9367 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
9368
9369 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
9370 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
9371 [Bodo Moeller]
9372
9373 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
9374 did not exist.
9375 [Bodo Moeller]
9376
9377 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
9378 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
9379
9380 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
9381 [Richard Levitte]
9382
9383 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
9384 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
9385 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
9386
9387 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
9388 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
9389 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
9390 [Steve Henson]
9391
9392 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
9393 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
9394 [Ulf Moeller]
9395
9396 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
9397 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
9398
9399 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
9400
9401 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
9402
9403 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
9404 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
9405 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
9406 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
9407 [Bodo Moeller]
9408
9409 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
9410 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9411
9412 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
9413 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
9414 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9415
9416 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
9417 was empty.
9418 [Steve Henson]
9419 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9420
9421 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
9422 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
9423 but the code is actually correct.
9424 [Steve Henson]
9425
9426 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
9427 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
9428 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
9429 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
9430 and leaves the highest bit random.
9431 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9432
9433 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
9434 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
9435 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
9436 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
9437 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
9438 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
9439 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
9440 [Bodo Moeller]
9441
9442 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
9443 [Ulf Moeller]
9444
9445 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
9446 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
9447 [Steve Henson]
9448
9449 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
9450 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
9451 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
9452 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
9453 headers.
9454 [Richard Levitte]
9455
9456 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
9457 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
9458 and break the signature.
9459 [Steve Henson]
9460 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
9461
9462 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
9463 DH ciphersuites.
9464 [Steve Henson]
9465
9466 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
9467 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
9468 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
9469 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
9470 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
9471 [Bodo Moeller]
9472
9473 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
9474 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
9475
9476 *) ./config script fixes.
9477 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
9478
9479 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
9480 [Bodo Moeller]
9481
9482 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
9483 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
9484 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
9485 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
9486 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
9487
9488 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
9489 call failed, free the DSA structure.
9490 [Bodo Moeller]
9491
9492 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
9493 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
9494 [Steve Henson]
9495
9496 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
9497 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
9498 when writing a 32767 byte record.
9499 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
9500
9501 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
9502 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
9503
9504 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
9505 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
9506 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
9507 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
9508 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
9509
9510 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
9511 [Bodo Moeller]
9512
9513 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
9514 [Ulf Möller]
9515
9516 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
9517 [Ulf Möller]
9518
9519 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
9520 [Bodo Moeller]
9521
9522 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
9523 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
9524 [Bodo Moeller]
9525
9526 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
9527 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
9528 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
9529 result of the server certificate verification.)
9530 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9531
9532 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
9533 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
9534 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
9535 [Bodo Moeller]
9536
9537 *) Fix SSL_peek:
9538 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
9539 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
9540 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
9541 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
9542 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
9543 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
9544 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
9545 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
9546 [Bodo Moeller]
9547
9548 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
9549 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
9550 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
9551 happening the other way round.
9552 [Geoff Thorpe]
9553
9554 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
9555 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
9556 [Bodo Moeller]
9557
9558 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
9559 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
9560 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
9561 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
9562 [Richard Levitte]
9563
9564 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
9565 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
9566
9567 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
9568
9569 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
9570 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
9571 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
9572 that.
9573
9574 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
9575
9576 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
9577
9578 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
9579 static ones.
9580 [Richard Levitte]
9581
9582 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
9583
9584 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
9585 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
9586 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
9587 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
9588 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
9589
9590 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
9591 Previously, it would create entries for disabled algorithms no
9592 matter what.
9593 [Richard Levitte]
9594
9595 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
9596 [Lutz Jaenicke]
9597
9598 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
9599
9600 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
9601 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
9602 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
9603 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
9604 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
9605 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
9606 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
9607 by the Finished messages.
9608 [Bodo Moeller]
9609
9610 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
9611 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
9612
9613 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
9614 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
9615 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
9616 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
9617 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
9618 appropriately.
9619 [Steve Henson]
9620
9621 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
9622 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
9623 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
9624 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
9625 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
9626 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
9627 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
9628 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
9629 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
9630 together.
9631 [Steve Henson]
9632
9633 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
9634 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
9635 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
9636 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
9637
9638 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
9639 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
9640 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
9641 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
9642 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
9643 the answer.
9644
9645 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
9646 been tested well enough.
9647 [Richard Levitte]
9648
9649 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
9650 it can return incorrect results.
9651 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
9652 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
9653 [Bodo Moeller]
9654
9655 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
9656 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
9657 include zero length content when signing messages.
9658 [Steve Henson]
9659
9660 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
9661 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
9662 [Bodo Möller]
9663
9664 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
9665 [Richard Levitte]
9666
9667 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
9668 wrong sign.
9669 [Ulf Möller]
9670
9671 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
9672 packages. The default package contains applications, application
9673 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
9674 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
9675 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
9676 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
9677 [Richard Levitte]
9678
9679 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
9680 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9681
9682 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
9683 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
9684
9685 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
9686 random number < q in the DSA library.
9687 [Ulf Möller]
9688
9689 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
9690 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
9691 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
9692 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
9693 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
9694 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
9695 just makes things more complicated.)
9696 [Bodo Moeller]
9697
9698 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
9699 from EGD.
9700 [Ben Laurie]
9701
9702 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
9703 work better on such systems.
9704 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9705
9706 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
9707 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
9708 keyid to the certificates aux info.
9709 [Steve Henson]
9710
9711 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
9712 if there was more than one signature.
9713 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
9714
9715 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
9716 about each symbol, as well as presenting variables as well
9717 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
9718 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
9719 [Richard Levitte]
9720
9721 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
9722 rather than always using the current time.
9723 [Steve Henson]
9724
9725 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
9726 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
9727 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
9728 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
9729 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
9730 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
9731
9732 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
9733 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
9734
9735 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
9736
9737 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
9738 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
9739 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
9740 the same hash value.
9741
9742 As a result various functions (which were all internal
9743 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
9744 structure. This will break anything that messed round
9745 with X509_STORE internally.
9746
9747 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
9748 exact match, rather than just subject name.
9749
9750 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
9751 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
9752 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
9753 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
9754 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
9755 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
9756 entirely (maybe later...).
9757
9758 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
9759
9760 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
9761 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
9762 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
9763 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
9764 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
9765 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
9766 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
9767 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
9768
9769 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
9770 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
9771
9772 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
9773 to customise the verify behaviour.
9774 [Steve Henson]
9775
9776 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
9777 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
9778 [Steve Henson]
9779
9780 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
9781 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputting
9782 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
9783 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
9784 request is improperly encoded.
9785 [Steve Henson]
9786
9787 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
9788 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
9789 BIO_write(b, ...).
9790
9791 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
9792 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
9793
9794 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
9795 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
9796 words set to zero.)
9797 [Bodo Moeller]
9798
9799 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
9800 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
9801 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
9802 [Bodo Moeller]
9803
9804 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
9805 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
9806 BIO/fp routines also added.
9807 [Steve Henson]
9808
9809 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
9810 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
9811
9812 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
9813 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
9814 demos/state_machine.
9815 [Ben Laurie]
9816
9817 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
9818 generation and verification.
9819 [Steve Henson]
9820
9821 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
9822 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
9823 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
9824 encode and decode it manually.
9825 [Steve Henson]
9826
9827 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
9828 compile under VC++.
9829 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
9830
9831 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
9832 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
9833 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
9834 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
9835
9836 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
9837 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
9838 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
9839 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
9840 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
9841 [Steve Henson]
9842
9843 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
9844 [Richard Levitte]
9845
9846 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the strings written
9847 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
9848 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
9849
9850 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
9851 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
9852 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
9853 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
9854 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
9855 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
9856 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
9857 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
9858
9859 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
9860 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
9861
9862 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
9863
9864 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
9865 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
9866 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
9867
9868 [Richard Levitte]
9869
9870 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
9871 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
9872 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
9873 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
9874 [Richard Levitte]
9875
9876 *) MD4 implemented.
9877 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
9878
9879 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
9880 [Richard Levitte]
9881
9882 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
9883 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
9884 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
9885 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
9886 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
9887 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
9888 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
9889 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
9890 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
9891 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
9892 short or long names are found.
9893 [Steve Henson]
9894
9895 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
9896 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
9897
9898 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
9899 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
9900 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
9901 version rollback attacks was not effective.
9902
9903 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
9904 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
9905 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
9906 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
9907 [Bodo Moeller]
9908
9909 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
9910 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
9911 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
9912 [Richard Levitte]
9913
9914 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
9915 these print out strings and name structures based on various
9916 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
9917 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
9918 to allow the various flags to be set.
9919 [Steve Henson]
9920
9921 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
9922 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
9923 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
9924 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
9925 dates to be checked.
9926 [Steve Henson]
9927
9928 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
9929 negative public key encodings) on by default,
9930 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
9931 [Steve Henson]
9932
9933 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
9934 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
9935 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
9936 [Steve Henson]
9937
9938 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
9939 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
9940 [Bodo Moeller]
9941
9942 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
9943 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
9944 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
9945 are always statically linked for now, but there are
9946 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
9947 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
9948 [Richard Levitte]
9949
9950 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
9951 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
9952 Random Numbers.
9953 [Ulf Möller]
9954
9955 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
9956 DSA key.
9957 [Steve Henson]
9958
9959 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
9960 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
9961 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
9962 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
9963 form signing output easier to verify.
9964 [Steve Henson]
9965
9966 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
9967 [Steve Henson]
9968
9969 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
9970 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
9971 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
9972 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
9973 are needed because all other string types have virtually
9974 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
9975 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
9976 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
9977 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
9978 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
9979 [Steve Henson]
9980
9981 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
9982
9983 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
9984 the syntax given in objects.README.
9985 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
9986 obj_mac.h.
9987 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
9988 obj_mac.h.
9989
9990 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
9991 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
9992 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
9993 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
9994 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
9995 consistent name changes.
9996 [Richard Levitte]
9997
9998 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
9999 [Bodo Moeller]
10000
10001 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
10002 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
10003 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
10004 environment variable, or the default random state file.
10005 [Richard Levitte]
10006
10007 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
10008 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
10009 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
10010 of safestack.h .
10011 [Steve Henson]
10012
10013 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
10014 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
10015 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
10016 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
10017 [Steve Henson]
10018
10019 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
10020 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
10021 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
10022 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
10023 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
10024 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
10025 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
10026 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
10027 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
10028 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
10029 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
10030 [Steve Henson]
10031
10032 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
10033 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
10034 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
10035 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used instead. Added some
10036 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
10037 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
10038 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
10039 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
10040 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
10041 algorithm to openssl-dev.
10042 [Steve Henson]
10043
10044 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
10045 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
10046 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
10047 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
10048
10049 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
10050 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
10051 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
10052 omit any duplicate addresses.
10053 [Steve Henson]
10054
10055 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
10056 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
10057 [Bodo Moeller]
10058
10059 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
10060 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
10061 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
10062 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
10063 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
10064 [Bodo Moeller]
10065
10066 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
10067 software:
10068 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
10069 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
10070 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
10071 Free => OPENSSL_free
10072 [Richard Levitte]
10073
10074 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
10075 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
10076 [Bodo Moeller]
10077
10078 *) CygWin32 support.
10079 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
10080
10081 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
10082 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
10083 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
10084 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
10085 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
10086 approach.
10087 [Geoff Thorpe]
10088
10089 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
10090 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
10091 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
10092 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
10093 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
10094 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
10095 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
10096 [Geoff Thorpe]
10097
10098 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
10099 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
10100 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
10101 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
10102 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
10103 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
10104 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
10105 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
10106 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
10107 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
10108 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
10109 [Bodo Moeller]
10110
10111 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
10112 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
10113 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
10114 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
10115 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
10116
10117 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
10118 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
10119 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
10120 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
10121 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
10122
10123 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
10124 ciphers.
10125
10126 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
10127 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
10128 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
10129 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
10130
10131 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
10132
10133 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
10134 of macros.
10135
10136 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
10137 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
10138 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
10139 flags.
10140
10141 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
10142 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
10143 any installed hardware versions can.
10144 [Steve Henson]
10145
10146 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
10147 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
10148 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
10149 number.
10150 [Bodo Moeller]
10151
10152 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
10153 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
10154 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
10155 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
10156 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
10157
10158 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
10159 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
10160 [Steve Henson]
10161
10162 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
10163 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
10164 [Richard Levitte]
10165
10166 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
10167 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
10168 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
10169 features.
10170 [Steve Henson]
10171
10172 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
10173 [Ulf Möller]
10174
10175 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
10176 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
10177 but no ssl client purpose.
10178 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
10179
10180 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
10181 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
10182 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
10183 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
10184 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
10185 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
10186 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
10187 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
10188 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
10189 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
10190 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
10191 [Steve Henson]
10192
10193 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
10194 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
10195 be obtained from the error queue.
10196 [Bodo Moeller]
10197
10198 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
10199 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
10200 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
10201 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
10202 [Bodo Moeller]
10203
10204 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
10205 [Ulf Möller]
10206
10207 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
10208 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
10209 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
10210 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
10211 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
10212 [Geoff Thorpe]
10213
10214 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
10215 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
10216 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
10217 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
10218 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
10219 [Geoff Thorpe]
10220
10221 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
10222 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
10223 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
10224 may not be NULL.
10225 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
10226
10227 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
10228 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
10229 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
10230 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
10231 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
10232 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
10233 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
10234 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
10235 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
10236 or "the configuration storage API"...
10237
10238 The new configuration file reading functions are:
10239
10240 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
10241 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
10242
10243 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
10244
10245 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
10246
10247 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
10248 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
10249 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
10250 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
10251 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
10252 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
10253 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
10254
10255 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
10256 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
10257 [Richard Levitte]
10258
10259 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
10260 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
10261 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
10262 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
10263 [Bodo Moeller]
10264
10265 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
10266 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
10267 them in a portable way.
10268 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
10269
10270 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
10271
10272 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
10273
10274 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
10275 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
10276
10277 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
10278 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
10279 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
10280 <attili@amaxo.com>]
10281
10282 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
10283 was larger than the MD block size.
10284 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
10285
10286 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
10287 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
10288 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
10289 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
10290 components.
10291 [Steve Henson]
10292
10293 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
10294 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
10295 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
10296
10297 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
10298 discouraged.
10299 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
10300
10301 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
10302 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
10303 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
10304 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
10305 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
10306 Additional arguments are always ignored.
10307
10308 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
10309 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
10310
10311 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
10312 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
10313 [Bodo Moeller]
10314
10315 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
10316 [Bodo Moeller]
10317
10318 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
10319 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
10320 its own key.
10321 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
10322 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
10323 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meaning
10324 you effectively got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
10325 [Bodo Moeller]
10326
10327 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
10328 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
10329 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
10330 does not suppress any output.
10331 [Richard Levitte]
10332
10333 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
10334 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
10335 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
10336 with all the associated security issues.
10337
10338 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
10339 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
10340 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
10341 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
10342 use the value in the default purpose.
10343 [Steve Henson]
10344
10345 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
10346 and fix a memory leak.
10347 [Steve Henson]
10348
10349 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
10350 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
10351 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
10352 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
10353 [Bodo Moeller]
10354
10355 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
10356 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
10357 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
10358 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
10359 [Bodo Moeller]
10360
10361 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
10362 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
10363 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
10364 [Bodo Moeller]
10365
10366 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
10367 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
10368 [Bodo Moeller]
10369
10370 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
10371 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
10372 which was free.
10373 [Steve Henson]
10374
10375 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
10376 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
10377 [Bodo Moeller]
10378
10379 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
10380 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
10381 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
10382 [Bodo Moeller]
10383
10384 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
10385 number generation fails.
10386 [Bodo Moeller]
10387
10388 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
10389 [Bodo Moeller]
10390
10391 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
10392 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
10393
10394 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
10395 [Ulf Möller]
10396
10397 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
10398 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
10399
10400 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
10401 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
10402
10403 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
10404
10405 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
10406 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
10407 [Steve Henson]
10408
10409 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
10410 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
10411
10412 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
10413 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
10414 [Ulf Möller]
10415
10416 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
10417 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
10418 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
10419 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
10420 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
10421 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
10422
10423 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
10424 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
10425 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
10426 for example.
10427 [Steve Henson]
10428
10429 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
10430 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
10431 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
10432 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
10433 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
10434 counter, some don't.)
10435 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
10436 counters or duplicate objects.
10437 [Steve Henson]
10438
10439 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
10440 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
10441 [Steve Henson]
10442
10443 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
10444 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
10445 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
10446
10447 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
10448 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
10449 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
10450 or -rand.
10451 [Ulf Möller]
10452
10453 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
10454 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
10455 [Steve Henson]
10456
10457 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
10458 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
10459 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
10460 cipher list.
10461 [Steve Henson]
10462
10463 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
10464 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
10465 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
10466 [Steve Henson]
10467
10468 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
10469 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
10470 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
10471 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
10472 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
10473 should work without changes.
10474 [Richard Levitte]
10475
10476 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
10477 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
10478 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
10479 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
10480 must be defined. E.g.,
10481 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
10482 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
10483 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
10484 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
10485
10486 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
10487 record layer.
10488 [Bodo Moeller]
10489
10490 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
10491 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
10492 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
10493 [Steve Henson]
10494
10495 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
10496 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
10497 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
10498 request header lines. Some software needs this.
10499 [Steve Henson]
10500
10501 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
10502 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
10503 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
10504 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
10505 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
10506 is prompted for as usual.
10507 [Steve Henson]
10508
10509 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
10510 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
10511 autodetect the card and use it if present.
10512 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
10513
10514 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
10515 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
10516 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
10517 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
10518 [Steve Henson]
10519
10520 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
10521 [Andy Polyakov]
10522
10523 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
10524 of seed file.
10525 [Steve Henson]
10526
10527 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
10528 [Bodo Moeller]
10529
10530 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
10531 [Steve Henson]
10532
10533 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
10534 bits.
10535 [Ulf Möller]
10536
10537 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
10538 [Ulf Möller]
10539
10540 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
10541 [Andy Polyakov]
10542
10543 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divisor are
10544 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
10545 [Ulf Möller]
10546
10547 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
10548 options to produce them.
10549 [Steve Henson]
10550
10551 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
10552 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
10553 [Ulf Möller]
10554
10555 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
10556 for p == 0.
10557 [Ulf Möller]
10558
10559 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
10560 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
10561 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
10562 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
10563 link with digests. This never worked because SSLeay_add_all_digests()
10564 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
10565 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
10566 [Steve Henson]
10567
10568 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
10569 [Steve Henson]
10570
10571 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
10572 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
10573 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
10574 [Bodo Moeller]
10575
10576 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
10577 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
10578
10579 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
10580 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
10581 [Ulf Möller]
10582
10583 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
10584 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
10585 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
10586 has already seen).
10587 [Bodo Moeller]
10588
10589 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
10590 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
10591
10592 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
10593 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
10594 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
10595 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
10596 generation becomes much faster.
10597
10598 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
10599 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
10600 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
10601 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
10602 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
10603 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
10604 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
10605 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
10606 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
10607 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
10608 [Bodo Moeller]
10609
10610 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
10611 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
10612 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
10613 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
10614 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
10615 trial division stage.
10616 [Bodo Moeller]
10617
10618 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
10619 as ASN1_TIME.
10620 [Steve Henson]
10621
10622 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
10623 [Steve Henson]
10624
10625 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
10626 [Ulf Möller]
10627
10628 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
10629 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
10630 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
10631 the comments.
10632 [Ulf Möller]
10633
10634 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
10635 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
10636 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
10637 [Bodo Moeller]
10638
10639 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
10640 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
10641 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
10642 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
10643
10644 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
10645 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
10646 [Steve Henson]
10647
10648 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
10649 [Ulf Möller]
10650
10651 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
10652 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
10653 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
10654 Rabin-Miller iterations.
10655 [Ulf Möller]
10656
10657 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
10658 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
10659 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
10660 [Ulf Möller]
10661
10662 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
10663 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
10664 (instead of parameters) in future.
10665 [Steve Henson]
10666
10667 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
10668 when a new cipher list is set.
10669 [Steve Henson]
10670
10671 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
10672 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
10673 wrong.
10674
10675 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
10676 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
10677 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
10678
10679 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
10680 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
10681 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
10682 an error is flagged.
10683
10684 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
10685 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
10686 the readability was also increased :-)
10687 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
10688
10689 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
10690 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
10691 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
10692 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
10693 as the root CA.
10694 [Steve Henson]
10695
10696 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
10697 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
10698 [Steve Henson]
10699
10700 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
10701 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
10702 structures and behave in an analogous way to the X509v3 functions:
10703 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
10704 instead.
10705
10706 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
10707 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
10708 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
10709 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
10710 because they handle more complex structures.)
10711 [Steve Henson]
10712
10713 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
10714 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
10715 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
10716 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10717
10718 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
10719 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
10720 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
10721 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
10722 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
10723 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
10724 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
10725 [Ulf Möller]
10726
10727 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
10728 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
10729 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
10730 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
10731 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
10732 [Bodo Moeller]
10733
10734 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
10735 [Bodo Moeller]
10736
10737 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
10738 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
10739 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
10740 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
10741 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
10742 to use this.
10743
10744 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
10745 code.
10746 [Steve Henson]
10747
10748 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
10749 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
10750 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
10751 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
10752 [Steve Henson]
10753
10754 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
10755 [Ulf Möller]
10756
10757 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
10758 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
10759 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
10760 international characters are used.
10761
10762 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
10763 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
10764 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
10765 in ASN1 order.
10766 [Steve Henson]
10767
10768 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
10769 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
10770 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
10771 request.
10772
10773 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
10774 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
10775 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
10776 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
10777 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
10778 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
10779
10780 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
10781 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
10782 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
10783 be handled by the string table functions.
10784
10785 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
10786 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
10787 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
10788 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
10789 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
10790 types at all.
10791 [Steve Henson]
10792
10793 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
10794 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
10795 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
10796 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
10797 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
10798
10799 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
10800 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
10801 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
10802 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
10803 [Bodo Moeller]
10804
10805 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
10806 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
10807 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
10808 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
10809 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
10810 SHA1.
10811 [Andy Polyakov]
10812
10813 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
10814 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
10815 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
10816 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
10817 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
10818 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
10819 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
10820 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
10821
10822 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
10823 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
10824 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
10825 [Steve Henson]
10826
10827 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
10828 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
10829 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
10830 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
10831 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
10832 support to pkcs8 application.
10833 [Steve Henson]
10834
10835 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
10836 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
10837 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
10838 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
10839 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
10840 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
10841 [Bodo Moeller]
10842
10843 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
10844 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
10845 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
10846 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
10847 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
10848 consistency.
10849 [Bodo Moeller]
10850
10851 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
10852 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
10853 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
10854 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
10855 example.
10856 [Steve Henson]
10857
10858 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
10859 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
10860 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
10861 and any application specific purposes.
10862
10863 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
10864 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
10865 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
10866 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
10867 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
10868 if the certificate is self signed.
10869 [Steve Henson]
10870
10871 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
10872 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
10873 [Steve Henson]
10874
10875 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
10876 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
10877 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
10878 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
10879 [Steve Henson]
10880
10881 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
10882 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
10883 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
10884 Update documentation.
10885 [Steve Henson]
10886
10887 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
10888 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
10889 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
10890 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
10891 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
10892 [Steve Henson]
10893
10894 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
10895 for details.
10896 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
10897
10898 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
10899 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
10900 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
10901 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
10902 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
10903 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
10904 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
10905 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
10906 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
10907 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
10908
10909 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
10910
10911 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
10912 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
10913 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
10914 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
10915 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
10916
10917 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
10918 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
10919 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
10920 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
10921 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
10922 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
10923 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
10924 request additional information:
10925 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
10926 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
10927
10928 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
10929 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
10930 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
10931 options.
10932
10933 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
10934 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
10935
10936 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
10937 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
10938 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
10939
10940 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
10941 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
10942
10943 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
10944 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
10945 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
10946 algorithm.
10947 [Steve Henson]
10948
10949 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
10950 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
10951 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
10952
10953 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
10954 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
10955 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
10956 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
10957 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
10958 included in OpenSSL.
10959 [Steve Henson]
10960
10961 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
10962 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
10963 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
10964 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
10965 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
10966 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
10967 [Bodo Moeller]
10968
10969 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
10970 PKCS12 structure.
10971 [Steve Henson]
10972
10973 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
10974 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
10975 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
10976 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
10977 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
10978 structure.
10979 [Steve Henson]
10980
10981 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
10982 need initialising.
10983 [Steve Henson]
10984
10985 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
10986 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
10987 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
10988 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
10989 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
10990 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
10991 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
10992 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
10993 be maintained manually.
10994
10995 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
10996 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
10997 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
10998 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
10999 work because people forget to call this function]
11000 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
11001 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
11002 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
11003 [Steve Henson]
11004
11005 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
11006 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
11007 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
11008 should be discouraged from doing it.
11009 [Ben Laurie]
11010
11011 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
11012 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
11013 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
11014 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
11015 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
11016 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
11017 [Steve Henson]
11018
11019 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
11020 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
11021 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
11022
11023 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
11024 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
11025 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
11026
11027 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
11028 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
11029 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
11030 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
11031 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
11032 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
11033
11034 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
11035 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
11036 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
11037
11038 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
11039 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
11040 and vice versa.
11041
11042 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
11043 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
11044 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
11045 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
11046 [Steve Henson]
11047
11048 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
11049 [Steve Henson]
11050
11051 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
11052 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
11053 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
11054 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
11055 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
11056 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
11057 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
11058 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
11059 keys so we should be OK.
11060
11061 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
11062 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
11063 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
11064 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
11065 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
11066 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
11067 stay in the name of compatibility.
11068
11069 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
11070 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
11071 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
11072
11073 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
11074 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
11075 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
11076 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
11077 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
11078 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
11079 supplied key).
11080 [Steve Henson]
11081
11082 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
11083 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
11084 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
11085 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
11086 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
11087 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
11088 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
11089 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
11090 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
11091 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
11092 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
11093 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
11094 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
11095 [Steve Henson]
11096
11097 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
11098 [Steve Henson]
11099
11100 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
11101 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
11102 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
11103 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
11104 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
11105 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
11106 single self signed certificate. This means that:
11107 openssl verify ss.pem
11108 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
11109 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
11110 is OK.
11111 [Steve Henson]
11112
11113 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
11114 (and add it to external session representation).
11115 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
11116 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
11117 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
11118 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
11119 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
11120 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
11121 security holes.
11122 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
11123
11124 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
11125 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
11126 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
11127 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
11128
11129 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
11130 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
11131 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
11132 [Steve Henson]
11133
11134 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
11135 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
11136 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
11137 code.
11138 [Steve Henson]
11139
11140 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
11141 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
11142 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
11143
11144 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
11145 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
11146 certificate auxiliary information.
11147 [Steve Henson]
11148
11149 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
11150 the 'enc' command.
11151 [Steve Henson]
11152
11153 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
11154 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
11155 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
11156 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
11157 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
11158 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
11159 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
11160 [Richard Levitte]
11161
11162 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
11163 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
11164 [Steve Henson]
11165
11166 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
11167 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
11168 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
11169 manpages and fix a few bugs.
11170 [Steve Henson]
11171
11172 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
11173 [Steve Henson]
11174
11175 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
11176 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
11177 [Steve Henson]
11178
11179 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
11180 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
11181 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
11182 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
11183 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
11184 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
11185 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
11186 using the new 'x509' options.
11187
11188 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
11189 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
11190 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
11191 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
11192 for all purposes.
11193 [Steve Henson]
11194
11195 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
11196 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
11197 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
11198 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
11199 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
11200 [Mark Cox]
11201
11202 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
11203 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
11204 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
11205 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
11206 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
11207 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
11208 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
11209 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
11210 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
11211 the key length and effective key length are equal.
11212 [Steve Henson]
11213
11214 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
11215 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
11216 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
11217 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
11218 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
11219 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
11220 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
11221 [Steve Henson]
11222
11223 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
11224 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
11225 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
11226 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
11227 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
11228 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
11229 openssl.cnf for more info.
11230 [Steve Henson]
11231
11232 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
11233 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
11234 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
11235 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
11236 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
11237 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
11238 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
11239 md should be large enough anyway.
11240 [Bodo Moeller]
11241
11242 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
11243 for handling the random seed file.
11244
11245 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
11246 ca,
11247 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
11248 s_client,
11249 s_server,
11250 x509 (when signing).
11251 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
11252 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
11253 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
11254
11255 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
11256 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
11257 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
11258 that support '-rand'.
11259 [Bodo Moeller]
11260
11261 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
11262 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
11263 [Bodo Moeller]
11264
11265 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
11266 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
11267 [Bill Perry]
11268
11269 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
11270 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
11271 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
11272 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
11273 is suitable.
11274 [Steve Henson]
11275
11276 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
11277 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
11278 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
11279 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
11280 [Steve Henson]
11281
11282 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
11283 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
11284 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
11285 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
11286 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
11287 print out all the purposes.
11288 [Steve Henson]
11289
11290 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
11291 functions.
11292 [Steve Henson]
11293
11294 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
11295 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
11296 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
11297 single function call.
11298 [Steve Henson]
11299
11300 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
11301 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
11302 [Andy Polyakov]
11303
11304 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
11305 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
11306 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
11307 [Steve Henson]
11308
11309 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
11310 when producing the local key id.
11311 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
11312
11313 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
11314 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
11315 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
11316 "server.pem".
11317 [Steve Henson]
11318
11319 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
11320 a public key to be input or output. For example:
11321 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
11322 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
11323 [Steve Henson]
11324
11325 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
11326 in the message. This was handled by allowing
11327 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
11328 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
11329
11330 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
11331 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
11332 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
11333 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11334
11335 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
11336 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
11337 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
11338 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
11339 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
11340 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
11341 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
11342 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
11343 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
11344 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
11345 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
11346 trivial: move one line.
11347 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
11348
11349 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
11350 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
11351 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
11352 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
11353 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
11354 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
11355 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
11356 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
11357 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
11358 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
11359 with an event loop for example.
11360 [Steve Henson]
11361
11362 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
11363 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
11364 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
11365 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
11366 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
11367 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
11368 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
11369 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
11370 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
11371 [Steve Henson]
11372
11373 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
11374 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
11375 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
11376 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
11377 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
11378 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
11379 [Steve Henson]
11380
11381 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
11382 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
11383 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
11384 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
11385
11386 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
11387 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
11388 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
11389 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
11390 key generation.
11391 [Steve Henson]
11392
11393 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
11394 (still largely untested)
11395 [Bodo Moeller]
11396
11397 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
11398 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
11399 [Steve Henson]
11400
11401 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
11402 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
11403 [Steve Henson]
11404
11405 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
11406 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
11407 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
11408 [Bodo Moeller]
11409
11410 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
11411 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
11412 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
11413 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
11414 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
11415 [Steve Henson]
11416
11417 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
11418 [Andy Polyakov]
11419
11420 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
11421 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
11422 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
11423 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
11424 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
11425 in ca.
11426 [Steve Henson]
11427
11428 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
11429 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
11430 1.OU="Unit name 1"
11431 2.OU="Unit name 2"
11432 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
11433 [Steve Henson]
11434
11435 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
11436 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
11437 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
11438 are otherwise ignored at present.
11439 [Steve Henson]
11440
11441 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
11442 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
11443 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
11444 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
11445 copied until the next read.
11446 [Steve Henson]
11447
11448 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
11449 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
11450 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
11451 [Steve Henson]
11452
11453 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
11454 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
11455 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
11456 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
11457 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
11458 associated functions.
11459 [Steve Henson]
11460
11461 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
11462 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
11463 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
11464 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
11465 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
11466 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
11467 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
11468 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
11469 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
11470 memory BIOs.
11471 [Steve Henson]
11472
11473 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
11474 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
11475 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
11476 but a retry condition occurred while trying to read the rest.
11477 [Bodo Moeller]
11478
11479 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
11480 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
11481 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
11482 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
11483 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
11484 functionality.
11485 [Steve Henson]
11486
11487 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
11488 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
11489 under Win32.
11490 [Steve Henson]
11491
11492 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
11493 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
11494 extensions to be obtained and added.
11495 [Steve Henson]
11496
11497 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
11498 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
11499 [Bodo Moeller]
11500
11501 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
11502
11503 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
11504 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11505
11506 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
11507 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
11508
11509 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
11510 program.
11511 [Steve Henson]
11512
11513 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
11514 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
11515 DH parameters contain its length).
11516
11517 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
11518 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
11519 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
11520 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
11521 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
11522 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
11523 utter importance to use
11524 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11525 or
11526 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
11527 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
11528 attacks may become possible!
11529 [Bodo Moeller]
11530
11531 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
11532 [Bodo Moeller]
11533
11534 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
11535 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
11536 [Steve Henson]
11537
11538 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
11539 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
11540 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
11541 or long name.
11542 [Steve Henson]
11543
11544 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
11545 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
11546 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
11547 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
11548 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
11549 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
11550 private key operations.
11551 [Steve Henson]
11552
11553 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
11554 [Andy Polyakov]
11555
11556 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
11557 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
11558 to
11559 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
11560 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
11561 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
11562 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
11563 the password callback is called.
11564 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
11565
11566 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
11567
11568 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
11569 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
11570 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
11571 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
11572 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
11573 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
11574 this will work.
11575
11576 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
11577 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
11578 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
11579 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
11580 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
11581 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
11582 [Bodo Moeller]
11583
11584 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
11585 [Andy Polyakov]
11586
11587 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
11588 delete an unused file.
11589 [Ulf Möller]
11590
11591 *) Add support for the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
11592 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
11593 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
11594 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
11595 [Steve Henson]
11596
11597 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
11598 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
11599 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
11600 of an error.
11601 [Bodo Moeller]
11602
11603 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
11604 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
11605 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
11606
11607 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
11608 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
11609 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
11610 comparison" warnings.
11611 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
11612 [Steve Henson]
11613
11614 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
11615 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
11616 derived keys are printed to stderr.
11617 [Steve Henson]
11618
11619 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
11620 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
11621
11622 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
11623 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
11624
11625 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
11626 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
11627 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
11628
11629 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
11630 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
11631 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
11632 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
11633 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
11634 this bug.
11635 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
11636
11637 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
11638 The interface is as follows:
11639 Applications can use
11640 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
11641 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
11642 "off" is now the default.
11643 The library internally uses
11644 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
11645 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
11646 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
11647
11648 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
11649 even the default) are now avoided.
11650
11651 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
11652 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
11653 than just having a counter.
11654
11655 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
11656
11657 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
11658 extensions.
11659 [Bodo Moeller]
11660
11661 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
11662 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
11663 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
11664 Initial "mode" flags are:
11665
11666 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
11667 a single record has been written.
11668 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
11669 retries use the same buffer location.
11670 (But all of the contents must be
11671 copied!)
11672 [Bodo Moeller]
11673
11674 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
11675 worked.
11676
11677 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
11678 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
11679
11680 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
11681 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
11682 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
11683 [Steve Henson]
11684
11685 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
11686 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
11687 test programs.
11688 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
11689
11690 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
11691 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
11692 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
11693 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
11694 point to the end.
11695 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
11696 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
11697
11698 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
11699 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
11700 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
11701 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
11702 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
11703 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
11704 [Steve Henson]
11705
11706 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
11707 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
11708 necessary function names.
11709 [Steve Henson]
11710
11711 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
11712 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
11713 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
11714 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
11715 [Bodo Moeller]
11716
11717 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
11718 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
11719 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
11720 [Steve Henson]
11721
11722 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
11723 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
11724 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
11725 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
11726 such programs?)
11727 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
11728 need locks.
11729 [Bodo Moeller]
11730
11731 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
11732 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
11733 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
11734 [Bodo Moeller]
11735
11736 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
11737 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
11738 appropriate.
11739 [Bodo Moeller]
11740
11741 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
11742 for the encoded length.
11743 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
11744
11745 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
11746 [Steve Henson]
11747
11748 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
11749 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
11750 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
11751 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
11752 [Steve Henson]
11753
11754 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
11755 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
11756 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11757
11758 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
11759 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
11760 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
11761 unusual formatting.
11762 [Steve Henson]
11763
11764 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
11765 to use the new extension code.
11766 [Steve Henson]
11767
11768 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
11769 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
11770 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
11771 constant.
11772 [Steve Henson]
11773
11774 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
11775 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
11776 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
11777 [Bodo Moeller]
11778
11779 #if 0
11780 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
11781 [Ben Laurie]
11782 #else
11783 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
11784 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
11785 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
11786 #endif
11787
11788 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
11789 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
11790 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
11791 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
11792 [Ben Laurie]
11793
11794 *) DES library cleanups.
11795 [Ulf Möller]
11796
11797 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
11798 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
11799 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
11800 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
11801 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
11802 of v2.0.
11803 [Steve Henson]
11804
11805 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
11806 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
11807 [Bodo Moeller]
11808
11809 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
11810 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
11811 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
11812 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
11813 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
11814 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
11815 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
11816 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
11817 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
11818 [Steve Henson]
11819
11820 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
11821 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
11822 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
11823 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
11824 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
11825 value doesn't matter.
11826 [Steve Henson]
11827
11828 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
11829 support mutable.
11830 [Ben Laurie]
11831
11832 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
11833 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
11834 "linux-sparc" configuration.
11835 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
11836
11837 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
11838 [Ulf Möller]
11839
11840 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
11841 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
11842 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
11843
11844 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
11845 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
11846
11847 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
11848 [Ben Laurie]
11849
11850 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
11851 [Ben Laurie]
11852
11853 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
11854 [Ben Laurie]
11855
11856 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
11857 [Bodo Moeller]
11858
11859
11860 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
11861
11862 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
11863
11864 *) Updated some demos.
11865 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
11866
11867 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
11868 [Wu Zhigang]
11869
11870 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
11871 [Steve Henson]
11872
11873 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
11874 [Steve Henson]
11875
11876 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
11877 instead of using a fixed path.
11878 [Bodo Moeller]
11879
11880 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
11881 [Andy Polyakov]
11882
11883 *) Improvements for VMS support.
11884 [Richard Levitte]
11885
11886
11887 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
11888
11889 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
11890 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
11891 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11892
11893 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
11894 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
11895 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
11896 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
11897 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
11898 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
11899 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
11900 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
11901 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
11902 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
11903 [Steve Henson]
11904
11905 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
11906 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
11907 [Steve Henson]
11908
11909 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
11910 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
11911 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
11912 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
11913 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
11914
11915 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
11916 [Bodo Moeller]
11917
11918 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
11919 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
11920 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
11921 [Steve Henson]
11922
11923 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
11924 [Ben Laurie]
11925
11926 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
11927 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
11928 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
11929 key elements as negative integers.
11930 [Steve Henson]
11931
11932 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
11933 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
11934
11935 *) VMS support.
11936 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
11937
11938 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
11939 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
11940 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
11941 [Steve Henson]
11942
11943 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
11944 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
11945 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
11946 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
11947 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
11948 [Bodo Moeller]
11949
11950 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
11951 [Ulf Möller]
11952
11953 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
11954 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
11955 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
11956 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11957
11958 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
11959 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
11960 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
11961
11962 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
11963 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
11964 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
11965 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
11966 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
11967 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
11968 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
11969 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
11970 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
11971
11972 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
11973 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
11974 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
11975 does not influence s as it used to.
11976
11977 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
11978 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
11979 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
11980 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
11981 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
11982 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
11983 [Bodo Moeller]
11984
11985 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
11986 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
11987 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
11988 key type.
11989 [Steve Henson]
11990
11991 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
11992 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
11993 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
11994 and 'x509').
11995 [Steve Henson]
11996
11997 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
11998 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
11999 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
12000 extension option.
12001 [Steve Henson]
12002
12003 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
12004 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
12005 [Ben Laurie]
12006
12007 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
12008 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
12009
12010 *) Support Mingw32.
12011 [Ulf Möller]
12012
12013 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
12014 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12015
12016 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
12017 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12018
12019 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
12020 [Ulf Möller]
12021
12022 *) Update HPUX configuration.
12023 [Anonymous]
12024
12025 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
12026 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12027
12028 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
12029 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
12030 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
12031 DER-encoded.)
12032 [Bodo Moeller]
12033
12034 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
12035 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
12036 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
12037 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
12038 now it really counts the depth.
12039 [Bodo Moeller]
12040
12041 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
12042 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
12043 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
12044 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
12045 didn't match the private key).
12046
12047 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
12048 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
12049 connection using the SSL_CTX).
12050 [Bodo Moeller]
12051
12052 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
12053 [Ulf Möller]
12054
12055 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
12056 David Harris.
12057 [Bodo Moeller]
12058
12059 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
12060 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
12061 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
12062 [Bodo Moeller]
12063
12064 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
12065 [Bodo Moeller]
12066
12067 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
12068 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
12069 such as /usr/local/bin.
12070 [Bodo Moeller]
12071
12072 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
12073 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12074
12075 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
12076 [Ulf Möller]
12077
12078 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
12079 extension adding in x509 utility.
12080 [Steve Henson]
12081
12082 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
12083 [Ulf Möller]
12084
12085 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
12086 prototypes.
12087 [Steve Henson]
12088
12089 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
12090 [Ulf Möller]
12091
12092 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
12093 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
12094 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
12095 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
12096 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
12097 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
12098 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
12099 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
12100 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
12101 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
12102 [Steve Henson]
12103
12104 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
12105 [Bodo Moeller]
12106
12107 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
12108 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
12109 [Bodo Moeller]
12110
12111 *) Fix some race conditions.
12112 [Bodo Moeller]
12113
12114 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
12115 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
12116 [Steve Henson]
12117
12118 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
12119 [Ulf Möller]
12120
12121 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
12122 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
12123 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
12124 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
12125
12126 *) Fix lots of warnings.
12127 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12128
12129 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
12130 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
12131 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12132
12133 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
12134 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12135
12136 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
12137 [Ulf Möller]
12138
12139 *) Fix typos in error codes.
12140 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
12141
12142 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
12143 [Ulf Möller]
12144
12145 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
12146 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
12147
12148 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
12149 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
12150 [Steve Henson]
12151
12152 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
12153 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
12154 [Ben Laurie]
12155
12156 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
12157 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
12158 [Steve Henson]
12159
12160 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
12161 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
12162 [Steve Henson]
12163
12164 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
12165 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
12166 [Steve Henson]
12167
12168 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
12169 support typesafe stack.
12170 [Steve Henson]
12171
12172 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
12173 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
12174
12175 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
12176 old X509V3 handling code.
12177 [Steve Henson]
12178
12179 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
12180 [Ulf Möller]
12181
12182 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
12183 [Bodo Moeller]
12184
12185 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
12186 [Ben Laurie]
12187
12188 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
12189 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
12190
12191 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
12192 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
12193 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
12194 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
12195 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
12196 [Ben Laurie]
12197
12198 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
12199 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
12200 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
12201 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
12202 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
12203
12204 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
12205 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
12206 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
12207 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12208
12209 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
12210 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
12211 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
12212 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12213
12214 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
12215 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
12216 all available ciphers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
12217 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
12218 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
12219 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
12220 [Bodo Moeller]
12221
12222 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
12223 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
12224 [Bodo Moeller]
12225
12226 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
12227 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
12228 [Ulf Möller]
12229
12230 *) Tweaks to Configure
12231 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
12232
12233 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
12234 yet...
12235 [Steve Henson]
12236
12237 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
12238 [Ulf Möller]
12239
12240 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
12241 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
12242 [Ulf Möller]
12243
12244 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
12245 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
12246 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
12247 [Bodo Moeller]
12248
12249 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
12250 [Bodo Moeller]
12251
12252 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
12253 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
12254 [Steve Henson]
12255
12256 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
12257 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
12258 to library startup routines.
12259 [Steve Henson]
12260
12261 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
12262 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
12263 codes along the way.
12264 [Steve Henson]
12265
12266 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
12267 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
12268 objects to objects.h
12269 [Steve Henson]
12270
12271 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
12272 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
12273 [Steve Henson]
12274
12275 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
12276 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
12277
12278 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
12279 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
12280 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
12281
12282 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
12283 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
12284 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12285
12286 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
12287 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
12288 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
12289
12290
12291 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
12292
12293 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
12294 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
12295 [Ben Laurie]
12296
12297 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
12298 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
12299 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
12300 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
12301 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
12302
12303 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
12304 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
12305 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
12306 document.
12307 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12308
12309 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
12310 Malloc, Free.
12311 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
12312
12313 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
12314 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12315
12316 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
12317 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
12318 if someone would make that last step automatic.
12319 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
12320
12321 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
12322 [Ben Laurie]
12323
12324 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
12325 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
12326 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
12327 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
12328 [Steve Henson]
12329
12330 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
12331 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
12332 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
12333 [Steve Henson]
12334
12335 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
12336 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
12337 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
12338 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
12339 installed as `perl').
12340 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12341
12342 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
12343 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12344
12345 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
12346 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparison
12347 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
12348 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
12349 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
12350 [Steve Henson]
12351
12352 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
12353 [Ben Laurie]
12354
12355 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
12356 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
12357 is horrible: I feel ill....
12358 [Steve Henson]
12359
12360 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
12361 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
12362 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
12363 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
12364 [Steve Henson]
12365
12366 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
12367 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12368
12369 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
12370 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
12371 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
12372 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12373
12374 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
12375 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
12376 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
12377 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
12378 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
12379 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
12380 openssl_bio.xs.
12381 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12382
12383 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
12384 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12385
12386 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
12387 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
12388
12389 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
12390 [Ben Laurie]
12391
12392 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
12393 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
12394 in CRLs.
12395 [Steve Henson]
12396
12397 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
12398 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
12399 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
12400 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
12401 to them (separated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
12402 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
12403 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
12404 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
12405 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
12406 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
12407 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12408
12409 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
12410 [Ben Laurie]
12411
12412 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
12413 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
12414 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
12415 for linking it into DSOs.
12416 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12417
12418 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
12419 Fixed.
12420 [Ben Laurie]
12421
12422 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
12423 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
12424 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
12425 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
12426 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
12427 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12428
12429 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
12430 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
12431 Additionally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
12432 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
12433 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
12434 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
12435 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12436
12437 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
12438 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
12439 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
12440 encryption.
12441 [Ben Laurie]
12442
12443 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
12444 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
12445 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
12446 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
12447 [Steve Henson]
12448
12449 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
12450 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
12451 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
12452 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
12453 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
12454 field as blank.
12455 [Steve Henson]
12456
12457 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
12458 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
12459 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
12460 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
12461 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12462
12463 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
12464 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
12465 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12466
12467 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
12468 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
12469
12470 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
12471 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
12472 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
12473 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
12474 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
12475 [Steve Henson]
12476
12477 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
12478 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
12479 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
12480 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
12481 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
12482 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
12483 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
12484 [Ben Laurie]
12485
12486 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
12487 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
12488 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
12489 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
12490 [Ben Laurie]
12491
12492 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
12493 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
12494
12495 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
12496 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
12497 [Steve Henson]
12498
12499 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
12500 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
12501 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
12502 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
12503 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
12504 (e.g. s_server).
12505 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
12506 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
12507 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
12508 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
12509 no way to reconfigure them.
12510 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
12511 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
12512 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
12513 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
12514 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
12515 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12516
12517 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
12518 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
12519 recognized by the users.
12520 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12521
12522 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
12523 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
12524 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
12525 already masked variable.
12526 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12527
12528 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
12529 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12530
12531 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
12532 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
12533 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
12534 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
12535
12536 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
12537 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
12538 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12539
12540 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
12541 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
12542 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
12543 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
12544 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
12545 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
12546 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
12547 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
12548 now, too.
12549 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12550
12551 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
12552 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
12553 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12554
12555 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
12556 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
12557 config file.
12558 [Steve Henson]
12559
12560 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
12561 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
12562
12563 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
12564 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
12565 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
12566 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
12567 [Ben Laurie]
12568
12569 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
12570 [Steve Henson]
12571
12572 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
12573 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12574
12575 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
12576 [Ben Laurie]
12577
12578 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
12579 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
12580 [Steve Henson]
12581
12582 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
12583 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
12584 [Steve Henson]
12585
12586 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
12587 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
12588 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
12589 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
12590 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
12591 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
12592 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
12593 Ben Laurie]
12594
12595 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
12596 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12597
12598 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
12599 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
12600 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
12601 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
12602 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12603
12604 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
12605 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
12606 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
12607 [Steve Henson]
12608
12609 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
12610 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
12611 an example.
12612 [Steve Henson]
12613
12614 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
12615 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
12616 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12617
12618 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
12619 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
12620 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
12621 build instructions.
12622 [Steve Henson]
12623
12624 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
12625 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
12626 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
12627 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
12628 [Steve Henson]
12629
12630 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
12631 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
12632 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
12633 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
12634 [Ben Laurie]
12635
12636 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
12637 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
12638 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
12639 so it wasn't spotted.
12640 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
12641
12642 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
12643 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
12644 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
12645 vectors if you have them.
12646 [Ben Laurie]
12647
12648 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
12649 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
12650 [Ben Laurie]
12651
12652 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
12653 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
12654 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
12655 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
12656 If you do a:
12657 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
12658 it will update them.
12659 [Steve Henson]
12660
12661 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
12662 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
12663 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
12664 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
12665 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
12666 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
12667 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
12668 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12669
12670 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
12671 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
12672 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
12673 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
12674 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
12675 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
12676 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
12677 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
12678 the crypto/md/ stuff).
12679 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12680
12681 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
12682 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
12683 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
12684 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
12685 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
12686 [Steve Henson]
12687
12688 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
12689 INTEGER code.
12690 [Steve Henson]
12691
12692 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
12693 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12694
12695 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
12696 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
12697
12698 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
12699 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
12700 [Ben Laurie]
12701
12702 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
12703 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
12704
12705 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
12706 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
12707
12708 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
12709 [Steve Henson]
12710
12711 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
12712 few typos.
12713 [Steve Henson]
12714
12715 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
12716 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
12717 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
12718 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
12719
12720 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12721 [Steve Henson]
12722
12723 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
12724 [Steve Henson]
12725
12726 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
12727 [Steve Henson]
12728
12729 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
12730 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
12731 [Steve Henson]
12732
12733 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
12734 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
12735 CA extensions.
12736 [Steve Henson]
12737
12738 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
12739 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
12740 [Steve Henson]
12741
12742 *) Takes a deep breath and start adding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
12743 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
12744 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
12745 [Steve Henson]
12746
12747 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
12748 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
12749 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
12750 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
12751 properly to be processed.
12752 [Steve Henson]
12753
12754 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
12755 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
12756 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
12757 [Ben Laurie]
12758
12759 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
12760 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
12761
12762 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
12763 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
12764 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
12765 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
12766 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
12767 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
12768 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
12769 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
12770 or delete all the .err files.
12771 [Steve Henson]
12772
12773 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
12774 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
12775 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
12776 to regenerate it if needed.
12777 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
12778 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
12779
12780 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
12781 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12782
12783 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
12784 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
12785 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
12786 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
12787 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
12788 [Steve Henson]
12789
12790 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
12791 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12792
12793 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
12794 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12795
12796 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
12797 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
12798 error, but didn't set one).
12799 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12800
12801 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
12802 [Ben Laurie]
12803
12804 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
12805 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
12806 [Steve Henson]
12807
12808 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
12809 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
12810
12811 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
12812 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
12813 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
12814 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
12815 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
12816 OID is not part of the table.
12817 [Steve Henson]
12818
12819 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
12820 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
12821 [Ben Laurie]
12822
12823 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
12824 [Ben Laurie]
12825
12826 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
12827 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
12828 was "1234").
12829 [Steve Henson]
12830
12831 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
12832 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
12833
12834 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
12835 NULL pointers.
12836 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12837
12838 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
12839 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12840
12841 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
12842 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
12843
12844 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
12845 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
12846
12847 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
12848 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
12849 [Ben Laurie]
12850
12851 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
12852 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
12853 [Steve Henson]
12854
12855 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
12856 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12857
12858 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
12859 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12860
12861 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
12862 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12863
12864 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
12865 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
12866
12867 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
12868 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
12869 unused in the certificate verification process.
12870 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12871
12872 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
12873 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
12874 [Steve Henson]
12875
12876 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
12877 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
12878 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
12879
12880 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
12881 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
12882 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
12883 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
12884 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
12885
12886 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
12887 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
12888 [Steve Henson]
12889
12890 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
12891 [Steve Henson]
12892
12893 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
12894 [Paul Sutton]
12895
12896 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
12897 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
12898
12899 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
12900 [Ben Laurie]
12901
12902 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
12903 [Ben Laurie]
12904
12905 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
12906 [Ben Laurie]
12907
12908 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
12909 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
12910 other error libraries.
12911 [Steve Henson]
12912
12913 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
12914 [Steve Henson]
12915
12916 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length constructed
12917 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
12918 be read in.
12919 [Steve Henson]
12920
12921 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
12922 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
12923 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
12924 the new set of documentation files.
12925 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12926
12927 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
12928 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
12929 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
12930 number of arguments.
12931 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
12932
12933 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
12934 [Ben Laurie]
12935
12936 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
12937 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
12938 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
12939
12940 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
12941 [Ben Laurie]
12942
12943 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
12944 nextstep
12945 ncr-scde
12946 unixware-2.0
12947 unixware-2.0-pentium
12948 sco5-cc.
12949 [Ben Laurie]
12950
12951 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
12952 before they are needed.
12953 [Ben Laurie]
12954
12955 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
12956 [Ben Laurie]
12957
12958
12959 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
12960
12961 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
12962 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
12963 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12964
12965 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
12966 [Paul Sutton]
12967
12968 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
12969 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
12970 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12971
12972 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
12973 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
12974 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
12975
12976 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
12977 when "ssleay" is still not found.
12978 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12979
12980 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
12981 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
12982
12983 *) Updated the README file.
12984 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12985
12986 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
12987 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
12988 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12989
12990 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
12991 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
12992 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
12993
12994 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
12995 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
12996 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
12997 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
12998 o removed obsolete TODO file
12999 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
13000 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13001
13002 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
13003 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
13004 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
13005 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f

13007 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
13008 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
13009
13010 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
13011 [Mark J. Cox]
13012
13013 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
13014 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
13015 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
13016 summer 1998.

13028 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
13029 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
13030 [Eric A. Young]
13031
13032 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
13033 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
13034 available).
13035 [Eric A. Young]
13036
13037 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
13038 binary structures
13039 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]

13094 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
13095 [Eric A. Young]
13096
13097 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
13098 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
13099 [Eric A. Young]
13100
