4
5 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
8 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
11 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-02
12
13 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
14 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
15 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
16 is at least 512 bytes long.
17
18 To enable it use an unused extension number (for example chrome uses
19 35655) using:
20
21 e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_padding=35655
22
23 Since the extension is ignored the actual number doesn't matter as long
24 as it doesn't clash with any existing extension.
25
26 This will be updated when the extension gets an official number.
27
28 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
29
30 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
31 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
32 [Steve Henson]
33
34 *) Add callbacks supporting generation and retrieval of supplemental
35 data entries.
36 [Scott Deboy <sdeboy@apache.org>, Trevor Perrin and Ben Laurie]
37
38 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
39 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
40 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
41 algorithms and include tests cases.
42 [Steve Henson]
43
44 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
45 structure.
46 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
47
48 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
49 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
50 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
51 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
52 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
53 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
54 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
55
56 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
57 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
58 [Steve Henson]
59
60 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
61 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
62 summary of the connection parameters.
63 [Steve Henson]
64
65 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
66 of connection parameters.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
69 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
70 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
71
72 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
73 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
74 [Steve Henson]
75
76 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
77 [Steve Henson]
78
79 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
80 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
81 [Steve Henson]
82
83 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
84 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
85 [Steve Henson]
86
87 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
88 certificates.
89 [Steve Henson]
90
91 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
92 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
93 CRLs using the OCSP API.
94 [Steve Henson]
95
96 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
97 [Steve Henson]
98
99 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
100 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
101 [Steve Henson]
102
103 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
104 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
105 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
106 tracing.
107 [Steve Henson]
108
109 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
110 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
111 [Steve Henson]
112
113 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
114 OID NID.
115 [Steve Henson]
116
117 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
118 client to OpenSSL.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
121 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
122 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
123 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
124 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
125 [Steve Henson]
126
127 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
128 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
129 [Steve Henson]
130
131 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
132 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
133 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
134 comparison.
135 [Steve Henson]
136
137 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
138 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
139 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
140 use the certificate.
141 [Steve Henson]
142
143 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
144 [Steve Henson]
145
146 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
147 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
148 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
149 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
150 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
151 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
152 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
153
154 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
155 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
156
157 [Steve Henson]
158
159 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
160 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
161 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
162 [Steve Henson]
163
164 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
165 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
166 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
167 supported signature algorithms.
168 [Steve Henson]
169
170 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
171 [Steve Henson]
172
173 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
174 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
175 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
176 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
177 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
178 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
179 certificate and specify the whole chain.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
182 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
183 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
184 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
185 to have similar checks in it.
186
187 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
188 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
189 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
190 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
191 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
192 [Steve Henson]
193
194 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
195 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
196 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
197 shared signature algorithms.
198 [Steve Henson]
199
200 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
201 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
202 to support them.
203 [Steve Henson]
204
205 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
206 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
207 it couldn't be removed.
208 [Steve Henson]
209
210 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
211 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
212 [Steve Henson]
213
214 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
215 functions. Add manual page.
216 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
217
218 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
219 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
220 a certificate.
221 [Steve Henson]
222
223 *) Fix OCSP checking.
224 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
225
226 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
227 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
228 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
229 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
230 utility) or reject.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
233 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
234 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
238 platform support for Linux and Android.
239 [Andy Polyakov]
240
241 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
242 [Andy Polyakov]
243
244 *) RFC 5878 (TLS Authorization Extensions) support.
245 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
246
247 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
248 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
249 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
250 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
251 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
252 [Steve Henson]
253
254 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
255 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
256 the new parameter format automatically.
257 [Steve Henson]
258
259 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
260 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
261 [Steve Henson]
262
263 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
264 [Steve Henson]
265
266 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
267 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
268 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
269 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
270 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
271 [Steve Henson]
272
273 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
274 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
275 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
276 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
277 to set list of supported curves.
278 [Steve Henson]
279
280 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
281 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
282 to print out received values.
283 [Steve Henson]
284
285 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
286 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
287 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
288 [Steve Henson]
289
290 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
291 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
292 [Steve Henson]
293
294 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
295 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
296 [Steve Henson]
297
298 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
299 certificates.
300 [Steve Henson]
301
302 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
303
304 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
305 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
306 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
307 (CVE-2013-4353)
308
309 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
310 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
311 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
312 [Steve Henson]
313
314 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
315 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
316 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
317 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
318 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
319 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
320 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
321
322 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
323
324 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
325 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
326 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
327
328 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
329
330 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
331
332 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
333 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
334 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
335
336 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
337 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
338 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
339 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
340 (CVE-2013-0169)
341 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
342
343 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
344 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
345 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
346 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
347 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
348 (CVE-2012-2686)
349 [Adam Langley]
350
351 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
352 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
353 [Steve Henson]
354
355 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
356 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
357
358 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
359 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
360 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
361 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
362 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
363
364 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
365 [Steve Henson]
366
367 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
368 if renegotiating.
369 [Steve Henson]
370
371 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
372
373 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
374 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
375
376 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
377 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
378 (CVE-2012-2333)
379 [Steve Henson]
380
381 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
382 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
383 [Steve Henson]
384
385 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
386 approved.
387 [Steve Henson]
388
389 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
390
391 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
392 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
393 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
394 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
395 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
396 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
397 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
398 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
399 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
400 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
401 [Steve Henson]
402
403 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
404 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
405 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
406 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
407 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
408 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
409 client side.
410 [Andy Polyakov]
411
412 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
413
414 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
415 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
416 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
417
418 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
419 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
420 (CVE-2012-2110)
421 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
422
423 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
424 [Adam Langley]
425
426 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
427 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
428
429 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
430 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
431 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
432 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
433 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
434 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
435 Most broken servers should now work.
436 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
437 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
438 [Steve Henson]
439
440 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
441 [Andy Polyakov]
442
443 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
444
445 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
446 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
447 [Steve Henson]
448
449 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
450 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
451 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
452 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
453 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
454 [Steve Henson]
455
456 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
457 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
458 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
459 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
460 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
461 [Steve Henson]
462
463 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
464 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
465
466 *) Add support for SCTP.
467 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
468
469 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
470 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
471
472 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
473
474 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
475 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
476 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
477 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
478 - s390x: z196 support;
479 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
480
481 [Andy Polyakov]
482
483 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
484 (removal of unnecessary code)
485 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
486
487 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
488 [Eric Rescorla]
489
490 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
491 [Eric Rescorla]
492
493 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
494 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
495 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
496 by Google.
497 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
498
499 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
500 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
501 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
502 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
503 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
504
505 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
506 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
507 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
508
509 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
510 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
511 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
512
513 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
514 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
515 implementations).
516 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
517
518 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
519 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
520 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
521 [Steve Henson]
522
523 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
524 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
525 particular PSS.
526 [Steve Henson]
527
528 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
529 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
530 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
531 [Steve Henson]
532
533 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
534 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
535 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
536 the appropriate parameters.
537 [Steve Henson]
538
539 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
540 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
541 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
542 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
543 against a number of sample certificates.
544 [Steve Henson]
545
546 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
547 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
548
549 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
550 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
551
552 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
553 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
554 parameters r, s.
555 [Steve Henson]
556
557 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
558 RFC3211.
559 [Steve Henson]
560
561 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
562 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
563 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
564 password based CMS).
565 [Steve Henson]
566
567 *) Session-handling fixes:
568 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
569 but also support Session Tickets.
570 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
571 presented a ticket with an expired session.
572 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
573 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
574 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
575 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
576
577 *) Fix PSK session representation.
578 [Bodo Moeller]
579
580 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
581
582 This work was sponsored by Intel.
583 [Andy Polyakov]
584
585 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
586 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
587 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
588 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
589 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
590 [Steve Henson]
591
592 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
593 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
594 [Steve Henson]
595
596 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
597 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
598 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
601 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
602 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
603 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
604 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
605 [Steve Henson]
606
607 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
608 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
609 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
610 [Steve Henson]
611
612 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
613 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
614
615 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
616 [Steve Henson]
617
618 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
619 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
620 [Steve Henson]
621
622 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
623 [Steve Henson]
624
625 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
626 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
627 [Steve Henson]
628
629 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
630 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
631 [Steve Henson]
632
633 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
634 [Steve Henson]
635
636 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
637 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
638 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
639 [Steve Henson]
640
641 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
642 [Steve Henson]
643
644 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
645 [Steve Henson]
646
647 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
648 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
649 [Steve Henson]
650
651 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
652 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
653 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
654 [Steve Henson]
655
656 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
657 [Steve Henson]
658
659 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
660 and enable MD5.
661 [Steve Henson]
662
663 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
664 FIPS modules versions.
665 [Steve Henson]
666
667 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
668 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
669 until after the certificate request message is received.
670 [Steve Henson]
671
672 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
673 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
674 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
675 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
676 [Steve Henson]
677
678 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
679 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
680 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
681 support yet and no support for client certificates.
682 [Steve Henson]
683
684 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
685 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
686 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
687 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
688 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
689 and version checking.
690 [Steve Henson]
691
692 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
693 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
694 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
695 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
696 [Steve Henson]
697
698 *) Add SRP support.
699 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
700
701 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
702 [Steve Henson]
703
704 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
705 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
706 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
707
708 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
709 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
710 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
711 [Steve Henson]
712
713 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
714 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
715
716 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
717 a few changes are required:
718
719 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
720 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
721 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
722 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
723 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
724 [Steve Henson]
725
726 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
727
728 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
729
730 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
731 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
732 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
733
734 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
735 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
736 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
737 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
738 (CVE-2013-0169)
739 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
740
741 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
742 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
743 [Steve Henson]
744
745 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
746 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
747 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
748 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
749 (This is a backport)
750 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
751
752 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
753 [Steve Henson]
754
755 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
756
757 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
758 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
759
760 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
761 to fix DoS attack.
762
763 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
764 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
765 (CVE-2012-2333)
766 [Steve Henson]
767
768 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
769 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
770 [Steve Henson]
771
772 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
773
774 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
775 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
776 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
777
778 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
779 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
780 (CVE-2012-2110)
781 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
782
783 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
784
785 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
786 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
787 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
788 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
789 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
790 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
791 an MMA defence is not necessary.
792 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
793 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
794 [Steve Henson]
795
796 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
797 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
798 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
799 [Steve Henson]
800
801 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
802
803 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
804 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
805 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
806 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
807 [Antonio Martin]
808
809 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
810
811 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
812 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
813 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
814 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
815 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
816 paper describing this attack can be found at:
817 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
818 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
819 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
820 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
821 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
822 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
823 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
824
825 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
826 (CVE-2011-4576)
827 [Adam Langley (Google)]
828
829 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
830 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
831 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
832 [Adam Langley (Google)]
833
834 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
835 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
836
837 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
838 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
839 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
840 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
841
842 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
843 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
844
845 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
846 [Adam Langley (Google)]
847
848 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
849 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
850
851 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
852 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
853 [Adam Langley (Google)]
854
855 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
856 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
857 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
858
859 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
860 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
861 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
862 the last update always remained unused).
863 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
864
865 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
866 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
867
868 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
869
870 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
871 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
872 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
873
874 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
875 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
876 [Adam Langley (Google)]
877
878 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
879 [Bodo Moeller]
880
881 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
882 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
883 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
884 [Steve Henson]
885
886 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
887 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
888
889 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
890
891 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
892
893 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
894
895 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
896 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
897
898 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
899 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
900 ambiguous.
901 [Steve Henson]
902
903 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
904
905 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
906 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
907 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
908 [Steve Henson]
909
910 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
911 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
912 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
913 [Ben Laurie]
914
915 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
916
917 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
918 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
919 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
920 [Steve Henson]
921
922 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
923 a DLL.
924 [Steve Henson]
925
926 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
927
928 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
929 (CVE-2010-1633)
930 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
931
932 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
933
934 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
935 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
936 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
937 [Steve Henson]
938
939 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
940 [Steve Henson]
941
942 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
943 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
944 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
945
946 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
947 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
948 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
949 [Steve Henson]
950
951 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
952 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
953 [Steve Henson]
954
955 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
956 some responders need this.
957 [Steve Henson]
958
959 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
960 correctly.
961 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
962
963 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
964 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
965 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
966 [Steve Henson]
967
968 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
969 [Steve Henson]
970
971 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
972 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
973 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
974 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
975 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
976 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
977 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
978 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
979 [Steve Henson]
980
981 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
982 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
983 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
984 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
985
986 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
987 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
988
989 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
990 be used on C++.
991 [Steve Henson]
992
993 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
994 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
995 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
996 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
997 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
998 attempting to work them out.
999 [Steve Henson]
1000
1001 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1002 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1003 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1004 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1008 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1009 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1010 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1011 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1012 [Steve Henson]
1013
1014 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1015 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1016 you can do:
1017
1018 openssl sha256 foo
1019
1020 as well as:
1021
1022 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1023
1024 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1025
1026 [Steve Henson]
1027
1028 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1029 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1030
1031 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1032 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1033
1034 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1035 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1036 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1037 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1038 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1039 [Steve Henson]
1040
1041 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1042 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1043 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1044 [Steve Henson]
1045
1046 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1047 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1048 [Steve Henson]
1049
1050 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1051 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1052
1053 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1054 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1055 [Steve Henson]
1056
1057 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1058 [Ben Laurie]
1059
1060 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1061 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1062 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1063 CONF_VALUE.
1064 [Ben Laurie]
1065
1066 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1067 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1068 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1069 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1070 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1071 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1072 [Steve Henson]
1073
1074 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1075 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1076
1077 This work was sponsored by Google.
1078 [Steve Henson]
1079
1080 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1081 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1082 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1083 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1084 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1085 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1086 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1087 default.
1088
1089 This work was sponsored by Google.
1090 [Steve Henson]
1091
1092 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1093
1094 This work was sponsored by Google.
1095 [Steve Henson]
1096
1097 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1098 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1099 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1100 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1101
1102 This work was sponsored by Google.
1103 [Steve Henson]
1104
1105 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1106 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1107 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1108 CRL functionality in future.
1109
1110 This work was sponsored by Google.
1111 [Steve Henson]
1112
1113 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1114
1115 This work was sponsored by Google.
1116 [Steve Henson]
1117
1118 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1119 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1120
1121 This work was sponsored by Google.
1122 [Steve Henson]
1123
1124 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1125 and URI types are currently supported.
1126
1127 This work was sponsored by Google.
1128 [Steve Henson]
1129
1130 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1131 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1132 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1133 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1134 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1135 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1136 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1137 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1138
1139 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1140 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1141 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1142
1143 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1144 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1145 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1146 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1147
1148 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1149 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1150 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1151 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1152 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1153 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1154 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1155 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1156 of &errno.)
1157 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1158
1159 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1160 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1161 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1162
1163 This work was sponsored by Google.
1164 [Steve Henson]
1165
1166 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1167 [Ben Laurie]
1168
1169 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1170 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1171 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1172 [Ben Laurie]
1173
1174 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1175 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1176 [Nick Mathewson]
1177
1178 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1179 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1180 [Ben Laurie]
1181
1182 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1183 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1184 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1185 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1186 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1187 content types and variants.
1188 [Steve Henson]
1189
1190 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1191 [Steve Henson]
1192
1193 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1194 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1195 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1196 files from the associated perl scripts.
1197 [Steve Henson]
1198
1199 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1200 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1201 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1202
1203 *) s390x assembler pack.
1204 [Andy Polyakov]
1205
1206 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1207 "family."
1208 [Andy Polyakov]
1209
1210 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1211 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1212 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1213 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1214 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1215 to use. For example, specify an option
1216
1217 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1218
1219 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1220 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1221 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1222 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1223 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1224 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1225
1226 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1227 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1228 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1229 return non-zero for success.
1230
1231 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1232 by using
1233
1234 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1235 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1236
1237 where
1238
1239 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1240 void *arg;
1241
1242 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1243 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1244 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1245 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1246 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1247 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1248 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1249 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1250 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1251
1252 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1253 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1254 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1255 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1256 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1257 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1258
1259 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1260 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1261 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1262 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1263 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1264 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1265
1266 [Bodo Moeller]
1267
1268 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1269 MAC.
1270
1271 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1272
1273 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1274 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1275 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1276 supported.
1277
1278 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1279 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1280 SSL_SESSION.
1281
1282 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1283 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1284 with no application modification.
1285
1286 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1287 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1288
1289 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1290 or server extensions to be examined.
1291
1292 This work was sponsored by Google.
1293 [Steve Henson]
1294
1295 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1296 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1297 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1298
1299 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1300 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1301 ciphersuite support.
1302 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1303
1304 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1305 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1306 to output in BER and PEM format.
1307 [Steve Henson]
1308
1309 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1310 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1311 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1312 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1313 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1314 [Steve Henson]
1315
1316 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1317 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1318 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1319 utility.
1320 [Steve Henson]
1321
1322 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1323 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1324 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1325 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1326 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1327 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1328 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1329 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1330 enabled again.
1331
1332 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1333 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1334 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1335 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1336
1337 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1338 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1339 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1340 the default order.
1341 [Bodo Moeller]
1342
1343 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1344 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1345 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1346 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1347 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1348 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1349 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1350 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1351 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1352
1353 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1354 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1355 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1356 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1357 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1358 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1359 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1360 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1361 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1362 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1363 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1364 kinds of kludges.
1365
1366 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1367 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1368 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1369
1370 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1371 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1372 "CAMELLIA256".
1373 [Bodo Moeller]
1374
1375 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1376 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1377 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1378 [Nils Larsch]
1379
1380 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1381 it yet and it is largely untested.
1382 [Steve Henson]
1383
1384 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1385 [Nils Larsch]
1386
1387 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1388 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1389 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1390 [Steve Henson]
1391
1392 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1393 [Andy Polyakov]
1394
1395 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1396 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1397 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1398 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1399 [Steve Henson]
1400
1401 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1402 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1403 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1404 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1405 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1406 [Steve Henson]
1407
1408 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1409 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1410 [Cryptocom]
1411
1412 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1413 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1414 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1415 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1416 [Steve Henson]
1417
1418 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1419 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1420 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1421 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1422 [Steve Henson]
1423
1424 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1425 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1429 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1430 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1431 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1432 [Steve Henson]
1433
1434 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1435 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1436 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1437 [Steve Henson]
1438
1439 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1440 utility.
1441 [Steve Henson]
1442
1443 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1444 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1445 [Steve Henson]
1446
1447 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1448 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1449 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1450 if necessary.
1451 [Steve Henson]
1452
1453 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1454 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1455 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1456 [Steve Henson]
1457
1458 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1459 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1460 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1461 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1462 [Steve Henson]
1463
1464 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1465 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1466 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1467 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1468 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1469 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1470 [Douglas Stebila]
1471
1472 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1473 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1474 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1475 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1476 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1477
1478 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1479 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1480 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1481 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1482 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1483 protocol).
1484
1485 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1486 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1487 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1488 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1489
1490 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1491 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1492 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1493 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1494 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1495
1496 aECDH - ECDH cert
1497 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1498 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1499
1500 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1501 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1502
1503 [Bodo Moeller]
1504
1505 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1506 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1507 [Steve Henson]
1508
1509 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1510 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1511 [Steve Henson]
1512
1513 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1514 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1515 functional reference processing.
1516 [Steve Henson]
1517
1518 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1519 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1520 process.
1521 [Steve Henson]
1522
1523 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1524 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1525 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1526 [Steve Henson]
1527
1528 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1529 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1530 application to support multiple signers.
1531 [Steve Henson]
1532
1533 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1534 digest MAC.
1535 [Steve Henson]
1536
1537 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1538 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1539 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1540 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1541 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1542 [Steve Henson]
1543
1544 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1545 new API.
1546 [Steve Henson]
1547
1548 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1549 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1550 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1551 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1552 a no op.
1553 [Steve Henson]
1554
1555 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1556 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1557 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1558 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1559 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1560 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1561 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1562 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1563 [Steve Henson]
1564
1565 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1566 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1567 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1568 between digests and public key types.
1569 [Steve Henson]
1570
1571 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1572 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1573 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1574 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1575 [Steve Henson]
1576
1577 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1578 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1579 key ASN1 method.
1580 [Steve Henson]
1581
1582 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1583 [Steve Henson]
1584
1585 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1586 pkeyutl.
1587 [Steve Henson]
1588
1589 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1590 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1591 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1592 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1593 pkey, genpkey.
1594 [Steve Henson]
1595
1596 *) BeOS support.
1597 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1598
1599 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1600 manual pages.
1601 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1602
1603 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1604 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1605 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1606 functionality for RSA.
1607 [Steve Henson]
1608
1609 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1610 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1611 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1612 [Steve Henson]
1613
1614 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1615 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1616 [Steve Henson]
1617
1618 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1619 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1620 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1621 [Steve Henson]
1622
1623 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1624 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1625 [Douglas Stebila]
1626
1627 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1628 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1629 [Steve Henson]
1630
1631 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1632 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1633 type.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1637 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1638 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1639 structure.
1640 [Steve Henson]
1641
1642 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1643 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1644 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1645 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1646 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1647 of public and private key structures.
1648 [Steve Henson]
1649
1650 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1651 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1652 [Douglas Stebila]
1653
1654 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1655 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1656 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1657
1658 New ciphersuites:
1659 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1660 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1661
1662 New functions:
1663 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1664 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1665 SSL_get_psk_identity
1666 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1667
1668 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1669
1670 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1671 and response verification functionality.
1672 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1673
1674 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1675 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1676 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1677 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1678 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1679 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1680 server_name extension.
1681
1682 New functions (subject to change):
1683
1684 SSL_get_servername()
1685 SSL_get_servername_type()
1686 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1687
1688 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1689
1690 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1691 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1692 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1693 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1694 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1695
1696 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1697
1698 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1699 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1700 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1701 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1702 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1703 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1704 option.
1705
1706 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1707
1708 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1709 [Andy Polyakov]
1710
1711 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1712 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1713 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1714 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1715 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1716 [Andy Polyakov]
1717
1718 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1719 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1720 macro.
1721 [Bodo Moeller]
1722
1723 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1724 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1725 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1726 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1727 [Andy Polyakov]
1728
1729 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1730 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1731 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1732 using the maximum available value.
1733 [Steve Henson]
1734
1735 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1736 in addition to the text details.
1737 [Bodo Moeller]
1738
1739 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1740 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1741 handle several customised structures at all.
1742 [Steve Henson]
1743
1744 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1745 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1746 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1747 [Steve Henson]
1748
1749 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1750 [Steve Henson]
1751
1752 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1753 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1754 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1755 [Steve Henson]
1756
1757 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1758 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1759 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1760 [Nils Larsch]
1761
1762 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1763 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1764 all fields.
1765 [Steve Henson]
1766
1767 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1768 [Steve Henson]
1769
1770 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1771 [NTT]
1772
1773 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
1774
1775 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1776
1777 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1778 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1779 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1780
1781 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1782 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1783 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1784 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1785 (CVE-2013-0169)
1786 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1787
1788 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1789 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1790 [Steve Henson]
1791
1792 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1793 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1794 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1795 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1796 (This is a backport)
1797 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1798
1799 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1800 [Steve Henson]
1801
1802 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
1803
1804 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
1805 to fix DoS attack.
1806
1807 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1808 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1809 (CVE-2012-2333)
1810 [Steve Henson]
1811
1812 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1813 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
1817
1818 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
1819 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
1820 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
1821 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
1822 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
1823
1824 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
1825
1826 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1827 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1828 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1829
1830 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1831 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1832 (CVE-2012-2110)
1833 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1834
1835 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
1836
1837 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1838 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1839 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1840 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1841 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1842 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1843 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1844 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1845 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1846 [Steve Henson]
1847
1848 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1849 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1850 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1851 [Steve Henson]
1852
1853 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
1854
1855 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1856 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1857 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1858 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1859 [Antonio Martin]
1860
1861 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
1862
1863 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1864 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1865 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1866 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1867 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1868 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1869 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1870 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1871 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1872 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1873 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1874 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1875 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1876
1877 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
1878 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
1879
1880 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1881 (CVE-2011-4576)
1882 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1883
1884 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1885 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1886 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1887 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1888
1889 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1890 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1891 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1892 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1893
1894 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1895 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1896
1897 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1898 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1899
1900 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1901 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1902 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1903
1904 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1905 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1906 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1907
1908 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1909 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1910 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1911 the last update always remained unused).
1912 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1913
1914 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1915 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
1916 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1917
1918 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1919 [Bodo Moeller]
1920
1921 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1922 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1923
1924 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1925
1926 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1927
1928 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
1929
1930 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1931 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1932
1933 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1934 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1935 ambiguous.
1936 [Steve Henson]
1937
1938 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
1939
1940 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1941 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1942 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1943 [Steve Henson]
1944
1945 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1946 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1947 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1948 [Ben Laurie]
1949
1950 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
1951
1952 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1953 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1954 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1955 [Steve Henson]
1956
1957 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
1961 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
1962 some broken encodings work correctly.
1963 [Steve Henson]
1964
1965 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
1966 is also one of the inputs.
1967 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1968
1969 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
1970 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
1971 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
1972 etc are non-op.
1973 [Steve Henson]
1974
1975 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
1976
1977 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
1978 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
1979
1980 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
1981 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
1982 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
1983
1984 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
1985 common in certificates and some applications which only call
1986 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
1987 [Steve Henson]
1988
1989 *) VMS fixes:
1990 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
1991 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
1992 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
1993 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
1994
1995 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
1996
1997 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
1998 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
1999 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2000 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2001 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2002 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2003 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2004 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2005
2006 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2007 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2008 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2009
2010 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2011
2012 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2013 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2014
2015 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2016 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2017 [Bodo Moeller]
2018
2019 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2020 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2021 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2022 [Steve Henson]
2023
2024 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2025 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2026 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2027 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2028 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2029 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2030 [Steve Henson]
2031
2032 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2033 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2034 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2035 [Steve Henson]
2036
2037 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2038 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2039 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2040 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2041 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2042 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2043 CVE-2009-4355.
2044 [Steve Henson]
2045
2046 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2047 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2048 [Bodo Moeller]
2049
2050 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2051 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2052 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2053 [Steve Henson]
2054
2055 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2056 [Steve Henson]
2057
2058 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2059 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2060 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2061 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2062 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2063 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2064 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2065 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2066 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2070 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2071 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2072 [Steve Henson]
2073
2074 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2075 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2076 [Steve Henson]
2077
2078 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2079 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2080 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2081 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2082 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2083 know what you are doing.
2084 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2085
2086 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2087 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2088 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2089 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2090 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2091 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2092 the handshake.
2093 [Steve Henson]
2094
2095 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2096 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2097 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2098 correctly.
2099 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2100
2101 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2102 warnings in other configurations.
2103 [Steve Henson]
2104
2105 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2106 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2107 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2108 systems need.
2109 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2110
2111 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2112 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2113 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2114
2115 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2116 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2117 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2118 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2119 [Steve Henson]
2120
2121 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2122 and restored.
2123 [Steve Henson]
2124
2125 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2126 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2127 clash.
2128 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2129
2130 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2131 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2132 other than a simple chain.
2133 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2134
2135 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2136 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2137 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2138 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2139 [Steve Henson]
2140
2141 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2142 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2143 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2144 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2145 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2146 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2147 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2148 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2149 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2150
2151 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2152 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2153 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2154 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2155 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2156 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2157 (CVE-2009-1377)
2158 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2159
2160 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2161 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2162 [Daniel Mentz]
2163
2164 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2165 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2166
2167 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2168 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2169
2170 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2171
2172 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2173 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2174 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2175 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2176 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2177 you're doing.
2178 [Ben Laurie]
2179
2180 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2181
2182 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2183 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2184 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2185 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2186
2187 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2188 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2189 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2190 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2191
2192 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2193 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2194 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2195 [Steve Henson]
2196
2197 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2198 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2199 level.
2200 [Steve Henson]
2201
2202 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2203 to handle some structures.
2204 [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2207 for a '\n'
2208 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2209
2210 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2211 [Matthieu Herrb]
2212
2213 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2214 [Steve Henson]
2215
2216 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2217 [Steve Henson]
2218
2219 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2220 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2221 chosen compiler.
2222 [Ben Laurie]
2223
2224 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2225
2226 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2227 (CVE-2008-5077).
2228 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2229
2230 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2231 [Ben Laurie]
2232
2233 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2234 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2235 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2236 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2237
2238 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2239 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2240
2241 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2242 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2243 [Bodo Moeller]
2244
2245 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2246 s_client and s_server.
2247 [Ben Laurie]
2248
2249 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2250 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2251
2252 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2253 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2254
2255 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2256 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2257 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2258 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2259 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2260 [Bodo Moeller]
2261
2262 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2263
2264 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2265 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2266 [PR #1679]
2267
2268 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2269 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2270 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2271
2272 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2273 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2274 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2275 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2276
2277 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2278 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2279
2280 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2281
2282 *) Various precautionary measures:
2283
2284 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2285
2286 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2287 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2288 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2289
2290 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2291 outside the expected range.
2292
2293 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2294 builds.
2295
2296 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2297
2298 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2299 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2300 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2301
2302 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2303 [Steve Henson]
2304
2305 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2306 [Huang Ying]
2307
2308 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2309
2310 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2311 [Steve Henson]
2312
2313 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2314 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2315 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2316
2317 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2318 [Steve Henson]
2319
2320 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2321 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2322 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2323 files.
2324 [Steve Henson]
2325
2326 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2327
2328 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2329 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2330 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2331 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2332
2333 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2334 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2335 [Joe Orton]
2336
2337 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2338
2339 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2340 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2341 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2342
2343 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2344
2345 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2346 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2347 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2348 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2349 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2350
2351 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2352 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2353 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2354 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2355 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2356 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2357 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2358
2359 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2360
2361 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2362 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2363 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2364 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2365 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2366
2367 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2368 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2369
2370 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2371 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2372 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2373 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2374 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2375
2376 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2377
2378 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2379 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2380 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2381 sets may exist with different names.
2382 [Steve Henson]
2383
2384 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2385 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2386 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2387 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2388 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2389 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2390 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2391 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2392 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2393 implementation.
2394 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2395
2396 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2397 implemention in the following ways:
2398
2399 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2400 hard coded.
2401
2402 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2403 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2404 ignored for embedded content.
2405
2406 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2407 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2408 [Steve Henson]
2409
2410 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2411 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2412 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2413 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2414
2415 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2416 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2417 [Steve Henson]
2418
2419 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2420 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2421 [Steve Henson]
2422
2423 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2424 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2425 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2426 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2427 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2428 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2429 data.
2430 [Steve Henson]
2431
2432 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2433 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2434 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2435
2436 *) Netware support:
2437
2438 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2439 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2440 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2441 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2442 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2443 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2444 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2445 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2446 platform
2447 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2448 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2449 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2450 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2451 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2452 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2453 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2454
2455 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2456 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2457 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2458 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2459 to s_client and s_server.
2460 [Steve Henson]
2461
2462 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2463
2464 *) Fix various bugs:
2465 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2466 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2467 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2468 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2469 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2470
2471 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2472
2473 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2474 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2475 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2476 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2477 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2478 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2479 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2480 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2481 [Andy Polyakov]
2482
2483 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2484 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2485 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2486 Steve Henson]
2487
2488 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2489 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2490 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2491 supported.
2492
2493 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2494 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2495 SSL_SESSION.
2496
2497 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2498 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2499 with no application modification.
2500
2501 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2502 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2503
2504 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2505 or server extensions to be examined.
2506
2507 This work was sponsored by Google.
2508 [Steve Henson]
2509
2510 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2511 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2512 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2513 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2514 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2515 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2516 server_name extension.
2517
2518 New functions (subject to change):
2519
2520 SSL_get_servername()
2521 SSL_get_servername_type()
2522 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2523
2524 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2525
2526 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2527 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2528 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2529 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2530 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2531
2532 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2533
2534 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2535 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2536 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2537 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2538 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2539 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2540 option.
2541
2542 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2543
2544 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2545 [Steve Henson]
2546
2547 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2548 [Andy Polyakov]
2549
2550 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2551 (which previously caused an internal error).
2552 [Bodo Moeller]
2553
2554 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2555 [Ben Laurie]
2556
2557 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2558 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2559
2560 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2561 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2562 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2563
2564 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2565 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2566 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2567 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2568
2569 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2570 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2571 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2572 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2573
2574 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2575 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2576 information. For detailed background information, see
2577 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2578 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2579 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2580 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2581 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2582 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2583 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2584 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2585 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2586 remove a conditional branch.
2587
2588 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2589 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2590 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2591 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2592 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2593 remains as a deprecated alias.
2594
2595 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2596 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2597 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2598 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2599
2600 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2601 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2602 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2603 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2604 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2605 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2606 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2607 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2608
2609 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2610
2611 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2612 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2613 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2614 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2615 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2616 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2617 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2618 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2619 in a different context.
2620 [Bodo Moeller]
2621
2622 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2623 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2624 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2625 [Bodo Moeller]
2626
2627 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2628 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2629 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2630
2631 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2632
2633 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2634 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2635 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2636 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2637 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2638 [Victor Duchovni]
2639
2640 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2641 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2642 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2643 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2644 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2645 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2646 [Bodo Moeller]
2647
2648 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2649 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2650 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2651 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2652 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2653 [Bodo Moeller]
2654
2655 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2656 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2657
2658 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2659 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2660 Improve header file function name parsing.
2661 [Steve Henson]
2662
2663 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2664 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2665 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2666
2667 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2668
2669 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2670 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2671 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2672
2673 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2674 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2675
2676 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2677 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2678
2679 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2680 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2681 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2682
2683 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2684 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2685 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2686 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2687 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2688 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2689 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2690 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2691 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2692
2693 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2694 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2695 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2696 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2697 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2698
2699 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2700 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2701 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2702 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2703 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2704 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2705 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2706 multiple values to extend the available space.
2707
2708 [Bodo Moeller]
2709
2710 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2711
2712 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2713 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2714
2715 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2716 [Ben Laurie]
2717
2718 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2719 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2720 undesirable limitations.
2721 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2722
2723 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2724 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2725 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2726 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2727 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2728 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2729 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2730 [Bodo Moeller]
2731
2732 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2733
2734 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2735 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2736 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2737
2738 The latter two were purportedly from
2739 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2740 appear there.
2741
2742 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2743 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2744 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2745 [Bodo Moeller]
2746
2747 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2748 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2749 [Bodo Moeller]
2750
2751 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2752 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2753 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2754 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2755
2756 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2757 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2758 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2759 [NTT]
2760
2761 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2762 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2763 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2764 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2765 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2766 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2767 [Steve Henson]
2768
2769 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2770
2771 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2772 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2773 [Steve Henson]
2774
2775 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2776 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2777
2778 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2779 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2780 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2781 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2782 [Douglas Stebila]
2783
2784 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2785 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2786 [Steve Henson]
2787
2788 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2789 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2790 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2791 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2792 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2793 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2794 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2795 can't be loaded.
2796 [Steve Henson]
2797
2798 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2799 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2800 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2801 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2802 [Steve Henson]
2803
2804 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2805 under VC++ build system.
2806 [Steve Henson]
2807
2808 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2809 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2810 [Richard Levitte]
2811
2812 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2813
2814 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2815 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2816 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2817 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2818 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2819
2820 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2821 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2822 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2823
2824 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
2825 [Steve Henson]
2826
2827 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2828 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2829 [Nils Larsch]
2830
2831 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
2832 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
2833
2834 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
2835 [Nick Mathewson]
2836
2837 *) Extended Windows CE support.
2838 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
2839
2840 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
2841 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2842 [Steve Henson]
2843
2844 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2845 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2846 smime utility.
2847 [Steve Henson]
2848
2849 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
2850
2851 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2852 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2853
2854 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2855 [Richard Levitte]
2856
2857 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2858 key into the same file any more.
2859 [Richard Levitte]
2860
2861 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2862 [Andy Polyakov]
2863
2864 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2865 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2866
2867 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2868 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2869 [Richard Levitte]
2870
2871 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2872 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2873 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2874 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2875 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2876 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2877
2878 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2879 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2880 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2881 [Steve Henson]
2882
2883 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2884 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2885 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2886 - add new function for parameter creation
2887 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2888 BN_BLINDING parameters
2889 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2890 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2891 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2892 threads.
2893 [Nils Larsch]
2894
2895 *) Add support for DTLS.
2896 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2897
2898 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2899 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2900 [Walter Goulet]
2901
2902 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2903 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2904 [Nils Larsch]
2905
2906 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2907 the apps/openssl applications.
2908 [Nils Larsch]
2909
2910 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2911 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2912 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2913 [Ben Laurie]
2914
2915 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
2916 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2917
2918 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2919 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2920
2921 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2922 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2923 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2924 avoid this algorithm.)
2925
2926 [Bodo Moeller]
2927
2928 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2929 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2930 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2931 [Richard Levitte]
2932
2933 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
2934 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
2935 [Andy Polyakov]
2936
2937 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2938 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2939 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2940 pod file:
2941
2942 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
2943
2944 The blank line is mandatory.
2945
2946 [Steve Henson]
2947
2948 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2949 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2950 sources.
2951 [Steve Henson]
2952
2953 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2954 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2955
2956 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2957 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2958 to support policy checking and print out.
2959 [Steve Henson]
2960
2961 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
2962 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
2963 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2964 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2965
2966 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2967 [Geoff Thorpe]
2968
2969 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2970 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2971
2972 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2973 implementation contributed by IBM.
2974 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2975
2976 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2977 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2978 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2979 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2980
2981 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2982 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2983
2984 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2985 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
2986 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
2987 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
2988 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
2989 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
2990 [Steve Henson]
2991
2992 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
2993 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
2994 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
2995 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
2996 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
2997 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
2998 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
2999 [Geoff Thorpe]
3000
3001 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3002 [Steve Henson]
3003
3004 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3005 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3006 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3007 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3008 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3009 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3010 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3011 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3012 [Steve Henson]
3013
3014 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3015 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3016 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3017 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3018 [Steve Henson]
3019
3020 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3021 syntax:
3022
3023 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3024 [Steve Henson]
3025
3026 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3027 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3028 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3029 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3030 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3031 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3032 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3033 [Geoff Thorpe]
3034
3035 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3036 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3037 [Geoff Thorpe]
3038
3039 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3040 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3041 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3042 [Steve Henson]
3043
3044 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3045 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3046 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3047 below).
3048 [Geoff Thorpe]
3049
3050 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3051 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3052 [Richard Levitte]
3053
3054 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3055 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3056 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3057 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3058 [Geoff Thorpe]
3059
3060 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3061 initialised value as BN_new().
3062 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3063
3064 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3065 [Steve Henson]
3066
3067 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3068 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3069 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3070 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3071 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3072 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3073 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3074 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3075 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3076 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3077 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3078 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3079 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3080 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3081 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3082
3083 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3084 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3085 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3086 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3087 [Geoff Thorpe]
3088
3089 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3090 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3091 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3092 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3093 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3094 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3095 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3096 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3097 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3098 [Geoff Thorpe]
3099
3100 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3101 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3102 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3103 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3104 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3105 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3106 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3107 [Geoff Thorpe]
3108
3109 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3110 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3111 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3112 these have been updated also.
3113 [Geoff Thorpe]
3114
3115 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3116 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3117 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3118 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3119 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3120 functions.
3121 [Steve Henson]
3122
3123 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3124 structure of type "other".
3125 [Steve Henson]
3126
3127 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3128 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3129 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3130 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3131 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3132 situation in the script.
3133 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3134
3135 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3136 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3137 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3138 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3139 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3140 used as premaster secret.
3141 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3142
3143 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3144 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3145 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3146
3147 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3148 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3149
3150 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3151 control of the error stack.
3152 [Richard Levitte]
3153
3154 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3155 [Richard Levitte]
3156
3157 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3158 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3159 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3160 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3161 [Richard Levitte]
3162
3163 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3164 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3165 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3166 [Richard Levitte]
3167
3168 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3169 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3170 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3171 a memory area.
3172 [Richard Levitte]
3173
3174 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3175 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3176 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3177 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3178 [Richard Levitte]
3179
3180 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3181 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3182 the following flags are defined:
3183
3184 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3185 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3186 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3187 number.
3188
3189 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3190 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3191 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3192 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3193 returns zero.
3194 [Richard Levitte]
3195
3196 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3197 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3198 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3199 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3200 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3201 [Richard Levitte]
3202
3203 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3204 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3205 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3206 [Richard Levitte]
3207
3208 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3209 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3210 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3211 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3212 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3213 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3214 [Richard Levitte]
3215
3216 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3217 req and dirName.
3218 [Steve Henson]
3219
3220 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3221 [Steve Henson]
3222
3223 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3224 [Steve Henson]
3225
3226 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3227 [Steve Henson]
3228
3229 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3230 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3231 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3232 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3233 default implementation more easily.
3234 [Geoff Thorpe]
3235
3236 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3237 in config files.
3238 [Steve Henson]
3239
3240 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3241 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3242 [Richard Levitte]
3243
3244 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3245 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3246 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3247 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3248
3249 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3250 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3251 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3252 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3253 [Steve Henson]
3254
3255 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3256 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3257 to do it.
3258 [Richard Levitte]
3259
3260 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3261 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3262 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3263 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3264 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3265 scalar * generator).
3266 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3267
3268 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3269 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3270 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3271 correctly.
3272 [Steve Henson]
3273
3274 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3275 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3276 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3277 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3278 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3279 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3280 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3281 linker additions, eg;
3282 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3283 [Geoff Thorpe]
3284
3285 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3286 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3287 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3288 [Geoff Thorpe]
3289
3290 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3291 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3292 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3293 via PR#459)
3294 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3295
3296 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3297 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3298 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3299 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3300 [Geoff Thorpe]
3301
3302 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3303 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3304 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3305 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3306 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3307 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3308 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3309 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3310 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3311 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3312
3313 Example for using the new callback interface:
3314
3315 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3316 void *my_arg = ...;
3317 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3318
3319 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3320
3321 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3322 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3323 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3324 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3325 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3326 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3327 */
3328
3329 [Geoff Thorpe]
3330
3331 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3332 available to TLS with the number defined in
3333 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3334 [Richard Levitte]
3335
3336 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3337 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3338
3339 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3340 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3341 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3342 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3343
3344 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3345 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3346
3347 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3348 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3349 well.
3350 [Richard Levitte]
3351
3352 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3353 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3354 [Richard Levitte]
3355
3356 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3357 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3358 and a macro that behave like
3359 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3360
3361 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3362 [Nils Larsch]
3363
3364 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3365 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3366 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3367 if applicable.
3368 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3369
3370 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3371 [Bodo Moeller]
3372
3373 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3374 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3375 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3376 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3377 directory engines/.
3378 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3379 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3380 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3381 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3382 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3383 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3384 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3385 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3386
3387 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3388 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3389 [Richard Levitte]
3390
3391 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3392 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3393
3394 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3395 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3396 files while avoiding the low level API.
3397
3398 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3399 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3400 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3401 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3402
3403 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3404 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3405 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3406 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3407 instead of the low level API.
3408 [Steve Henson]
3409
3410 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3411 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3412 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3413 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3414 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3415 PKCS#7 code.
3416
3417 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3418 down to the template encoder.
3419 [Steve Henson]
3420
3421 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3422 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3423 [Bodo Moeller]
3424
3425 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3426 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3427 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3428 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3429
3430 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3431 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3432
3433 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3434 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3435
3436 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3437 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3438 [Bodo Moeller]
3439
3440 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3441 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3442 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3443 [Bodo Moeller]
3444
3445 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3446 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3447
3448 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3449 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3450
3451 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3452 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3453 New EC_METHOD:
3454
3455 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3456
3457 New API functions:
3458
3459 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3460 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3461 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3462 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3463 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3464 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3465
3466 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3467 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3468 enable it).
3469
3470 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3471 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3472 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3473 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3474 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3475 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3476 various internal method names.)
3477
3478 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3479 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3480
3481 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3482 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3483
3484 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3485 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3486
3487 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3488 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3489 methods are undefined.
3490
3491 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3492 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3493
3494 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3495 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3496 length of the modulus.
3497
3498 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3499 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3500
3501 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3502 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3503
3504 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3505 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3506
3507 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3508 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3509 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3510
3511 BN_GF2m_add
3512 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3513 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3514 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3515 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3516 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3517 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3518 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3519 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3520 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3521
3522 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3523 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3524
3525 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3526 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3527 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3528 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3529 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3530 where
3531 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3532 This applies to the following functions:
3533
3534 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3535 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3536 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3537 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3538 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3539 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3540 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3541 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3542 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3543 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3544
3545 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3546
3547 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3548 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3549
3550 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3551
3552 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3553 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3554 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3555 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3556 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3557
3558 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3559 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3560
3561 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3562 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3563 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3564
3565 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3566 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3567
3568 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3569 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3570 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3571 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3572 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3573
3574 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3575 functions
3576 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3577 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3578 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3579 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3580 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3581 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3582 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3583 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3584 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3585 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3586 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3587 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3588
3589 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3590 functions
3591 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3592 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3593 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3594 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3595 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3596
3597 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3598 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3599 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3600 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3601
3602 *) Add functions
3603 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3604 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3605 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3606 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3607 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3608 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3609 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3610
3611 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3612 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3613 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3614 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3615 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3616 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3617 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3618 adding different types of curves.
3619 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3620
3621 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3622 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3623 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3624 [Bodo Moeller]
3625
3626 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3627 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3628
3629 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3630 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3631 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3632 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3633
3634 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3635
3636 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3637 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3638
3639 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3640 library. Most notably,
3641 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3642 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3643 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3644 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3645 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3646 extracted before the specific public key;
3647 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3648 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3649
3650 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3651 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3652 function
3653 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3654 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3655 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3656 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3657 accessed via
3658 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3659 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3660 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3661
3662 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3663 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3664 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3665 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3666 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3667 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3668 differing sizes.
3669 [Richard Levitte]
3670
3671 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3672
3673 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3674 sensitive data.
3675 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3676
3677 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3678 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3679 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3680 [Bodo Moeller]
3681
3682 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3683 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3684 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3685 [Victor Duchovni]
3686
3687 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3688 [Steve Henson]
3689
3690 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3691 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3692 [Steve Henson]
3693
3694 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3695 run algorithm test programs.
3696 [Steve Henson]
3697
3698 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3699 [Steve Henson]
3700
3701 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3702 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3703 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3704 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3705 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3706 [Bodo Moeller]
3707
3708 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3709 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3710 [Steve Henson]
3711
3712 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3713
3714 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3715 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3716 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3717
3718 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3719 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3720
3721 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3722 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3723
3724 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3725 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3726 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3727
3728 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3729 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3730 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3731 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3732 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3733 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3734 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3735 [Bodo Moeller]
3736
3737 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3738
3739 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3740 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3741
3742 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3743 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3744 undesirable limitations.
3745 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3746
3747 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3748
3749 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3750 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3751 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3752
3753 The latter two were purportedly from
3754 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3755 appear there.
3756
3757 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3758 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3759 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3760 [Bodo Moeller]
3761
3762 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3763 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3764 [Bodo Moeller]
3765
3766 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3767
3768 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3769 module in FIPS mode.
3770 [Steve Henson]
3771
3772 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3773 [Steve Henson]
3774
3775 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3776 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3777 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3778 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3779 [Steve Henson]
3780
3781 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3782
3783 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3784 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3785 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3786 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3787 the difference induced by this change.
3788 [Andy Polyakov]
3789
3790 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3791
3792 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3793 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3794 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3795 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3796 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3797
3798 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3799 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3800 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3801
3802 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
3803 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
3804 [Steve Henson]
3805
3806 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3807 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3808 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3809 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3810 biased k.)
3811 [Bodo Moeller]
3812
3813 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
3814 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3815 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3816 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3817 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
3818
3819 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3820 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
3821 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
3822 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3823 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3824 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
3825
3826 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
3827
3828 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
3829 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3830 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3831 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3832 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
3833 [Bodo Moeller]
3834
3835 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3836 clients need.
3837 [Steve Henson]
3838
3839 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3840 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3841 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3842 [Steve Henson]
3843
3844 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
3845 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
3846 structures constant.
3847 [Steve Henson]
3848
3849 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
3850
3851 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3852 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3853
3854 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3855 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3856 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3857 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3858 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3859 some needed definitions.
3860 [Steve Henson]
3861
3862 *) Undo Cygwin change.
3863 [Ulf Möller]
3864
3865 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3866 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3867 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3868 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
3869 [Richard Levitte]
3870
3871 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
3872
3873 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3874 server and client random values. Previously
3875 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3876 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3877
3878 This change has negligible security impact because:
3879
3880 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3881 data.
3882
3883 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3884 handshake.
3885
3886 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3887 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3888 values.
3889
3890 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
3891 to our attention.
3892
3893 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
3894
3895 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
3896 [Ulf Möller]
3897
3898 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
3899 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
3900 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
3901
3902 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
3903 [Steve Henson]
3904
3905 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
3906 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
3907 [Andy Polyakov]
3908
3909 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
3910 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
3911 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
3912
3913 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
3914 [Steve Henson]
3915
3916 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
3917 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
3918 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
3919 certificates.
3920 [Steve Henson]
3921
3922 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3923 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3924 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3925 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3926
3927 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3928 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3929 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3930 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
3931 been given)
3932 [Richard Levitte]
3933
3934 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
3935
3936 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
3937 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3938 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3939 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
3940 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
3941 [Steve Henson]
3942
3943 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
3944 [Steve Henson]
3945
3946 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
3947 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
3948
3949 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3950 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3951 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3952 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3953 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3954 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
3955 rather than being initialized to 1.
3956 [Steve Henson]
3957
3958 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
3959
3960 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3961 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3962 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3963
3964 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
3965 (CVE-2004-0112)
3966 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3967
3968 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3969 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3970 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3971 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3972 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3973 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3974 [Richard Levitte]
3975
3976 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
3977 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3978 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3979 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
3980 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
3981 for these cases.
3982 [Steve Henson]
3983
3984 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3985 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
3986 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
3987 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
3988 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
3989 [Steve Henson]
3990
3991 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
3992 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
3993 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
3994 < 0.9.7.
3995 [Steve Henson]
3996
3997 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
3998 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3999
4000 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4001 [Steve Henson]
4002
4003 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4004
4005 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4006
4007 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4008 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4009
4010 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4011
4012 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4013 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4014
4015 [Steve Henson]
4016
4017 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4018 exiting on the first error in a request.
4019 [Steve Henson]
4020
4021 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4022 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4023 specifications.
4024 [Steve Henson]
4025
4026 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4027 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4028 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4029 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4030
4031 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4032 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4033 [Richard Levitte]
4034
4035 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4036 blocks during encryption.
4037 [Richard Levitte]
4038
4039 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4040 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4041 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4042 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4043 certain size.
4044 [Steve Henson]
4045
4046 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4047 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4048 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4049 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4050 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4051 parser.
4052 [Steve Henson]
4053
4054 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4055
4056 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4057 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4058 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4059 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4060 [Bodo Moeller]
4061
4062 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4063 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4064 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4065 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4066 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4067
4068 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4069 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4070 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4071 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4072 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4073 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4074 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4075 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4076 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4077 [Bodo Moeller]
4078
4079 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4080 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4081 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4082 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4083 [Geoff Thorpe]
4084
4085 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4086 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4087 [Ulf Moeller]
4088
4089 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4090
4091 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4092 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4093 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4094 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4095 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4096
4097 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4098 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4099 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4100
4101 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4102 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4103 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4104 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4105 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4106
4107 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4108 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4109 used by default when no-err is given.
4110 [Richard Levitte]
4111
4112 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4113 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4114
4115 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4116 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4117 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4118 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4119 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4120
4121 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4122 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4123 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4124 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4125
4126 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4127
4128 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4129
4130 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4131
4132 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4133 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4134 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4135 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4136 root is omitted).
4137 [Steve Henson]
4138
4139 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4140 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4141
4142 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4143 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4144 [Steve Henson]
4145
4146 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4147 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4148 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4149 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4150 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4151
4152 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4153 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4154 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4155 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4156 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4157 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4158 followup to PR #377.
4159 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4160
4161 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4162 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4163 [Andy Polyakov]
4164
4165 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4166 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4167 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4168 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4169
4170 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4171
4172 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4173 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4174
4175 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4176 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4177 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4178 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4179 client and server.
4180 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4181 PR #377.
4182 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4183
4184 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4185 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4186 removed entirely.
4187 [Richard Levitte]
4188
4189 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4190 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4191 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4192 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4193 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4194 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4195 of libcrypto.
4196 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4197 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4198 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4199 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4200 have to be made anyway).
4201 [Richard Levitte]
4202
4203 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4204 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4205 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4206 [Steve Henson]
4207
4208 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4209 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4210 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4211 [Richard Levitte]
4212
4213 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4214 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4215 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4216
4217 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4218 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4219 edit numbers of the version.
4220 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4221
4222 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4223 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4224 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4225
4226 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4227 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4228
4229 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4230 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4231 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4232
4233 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4234 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4235
4236 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4237 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4238
4239 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4240 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4241
4242 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4243 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4244
4245 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4246 overflows.
4247 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4248
4249 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4250 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4251 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4252
4253 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4254 representations in a platform independent manner.
4255 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4256
4257 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4258 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4259 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4260
4261 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4262 indents.
4263 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4264
4265 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4266 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4267
4268 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4269 full. Fixed.
4270 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4271
4272 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4273 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4274 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4275
4276 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4277 unconditionally).
4278 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4279
4280 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4281 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4282
4283 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4284 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4285
4286 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4287 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4288
4289 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4290 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4291
4292 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4293 CBCParameter.
4294 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4295
4296 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4297 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4298
4299 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4300 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4301
4302 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4303 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4304 exploitable.
4305 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4306
4307 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4308 the 0.9.6 release series:
4309
4310 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4311 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4312 (CVE-2002-0657)
4313 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4314
4315 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4316 [Richard Levitte]
4317
4318 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4319 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4320
4321 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4322 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4323
4324 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4325 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4326 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4327 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4328
4329 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4330 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4331 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4332
4333 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4334 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4335 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4336 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4337
4338 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4339 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4340 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4341 some local tweaks:
4342
4343 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4344 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4345 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4346 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4347 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4348 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4349 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4350 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4351 done
4352
4353 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4354 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4355 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4356 [Richard Levitte]
4357
4358 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4359 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4360 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4361 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4362 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4363
4364 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4365 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4366
4367 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4368 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4369 [Richard Levitte]
4370
4371 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4372 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4373 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4374 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4375 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4376 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4377 [Steve Henson]
4378
4379 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4380 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4381 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4382 [Steve Henson]
4383
4384 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4385 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4386 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4387
4388 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4389 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4390 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4391 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4392 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4393 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4394 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4395 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4396
4397 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4398 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4399 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4400 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4401 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4402 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4403 [Steve Henson]
4404
4405 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4406 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4407 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4408 declaration has been changed from
4409 int (*cb)()
4410 into
4411 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4412 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4413 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4414 has been changed into
4415 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4416
4417 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4418 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4419 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4420
4421 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4422 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4423
4424 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4425 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4426 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4427 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4428 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4429 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4430 always load it have also been added.
4431 [Steve Henson]
4432
4433 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4434 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4435 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4436
4437 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4438
4439 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4440 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4441 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4442
4443 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4444 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4445 command line option can be used to specify an
4446 alternative file.
4447 [Steve Henson]
4448
4449 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4450 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4451 [Steve Henson]
4452
4453 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4454 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4455 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4456 [Steve Henson]
4457
4458 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4459 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4460 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4461 to work with the new engine framework.
4462 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4463
4464 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4465 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4466 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4467 to work with the new engine framework.
4468 [Richard Levitte]
4469
4470 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4471 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4472 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4473
4474 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4475 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4476
4477 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4478 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4479 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4480 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4481 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4482 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4483
4484 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4485 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4486
4487 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4488 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4489
4490 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4491 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4492 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4493 [Ben Laurie]
4494
4495 *) Add new functions
4496 ERR_peek_last_error
4497 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4498 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4499 These are similar to
4500 ERR_peek_error
4501 ERR_peek_error_line
4502 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4503 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4504 still in the error queue.
4505 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4506
4507 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4508 like:
4509 default_algorithms = ALL
4510 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4511 [Steve Henson]
4512
4513 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4514 [Steve Henson]
4515
4516 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4517 [Steve Henson]
4518
4519 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4520 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4521 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4522 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4523
4524 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4525 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4526
4527 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4528 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4529
4530 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4531 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4532 [Bodo Moeller]
4533
4534 *) New functions/macros
4535
4536 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4537 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4538 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4539 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4540
4541 to request calling a callback function
4542
4543 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4544 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4545
4546 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4547 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4548 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4549 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4550 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4551 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4552 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4553 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4554 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4555 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4556
4557 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4558 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4559 [Bodo Moeller]
4560
4561 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4562 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4563 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4564 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4565 the configuration scripts.
4566
4567 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4568 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4569 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4570
4571 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4572 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4573
4574 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4575 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4576 when reusing an existing buffer.
4577 [Bodo Moeller]
4578
4579 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4580 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4581 [Steve Henson]
4582
4583 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4584 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4585 [Ben Laurie]
4586
4587 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4588 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4589 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4590 has the same effect.
4591 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4592
4593 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4594 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4595 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4596 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4597 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4598 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4599 exception.
4600
4601 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4602 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4603 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4604 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4605
4606 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4607 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4608 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4609 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4610
4611 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4612 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4613 won't work.
4614
4615 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4616 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4617 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4618 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4619 default), and then completely removed.
4620 [Richard Levitte]
4621
4622 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4623 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4624 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4625 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4626 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4627 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4628 particular extension is supported.
4629 [Steve Henson]
4630
4631 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4632 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4633 [Steve Henson]
4634
4635 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4636 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4637 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4638 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4639 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4640 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4641 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4642 requires the destination to be valid.
4643
4644 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4645 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4646 [Steve Henson]
4647
4648 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4649 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4650 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4651 [Bodo Moeller]
4652
4653 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4654 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4655
4656 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4657 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4658 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4659 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4660 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4661 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4662 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4663 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4664 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4665 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4666 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4667 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4668 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4669 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4670 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4671 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4672 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4673 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4674 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4675 the new code.
4676 [Geoff Thorpe]
4677
4678 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4679 [Steve Henson]
4680
4681 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4682 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4683 become part of libeay.num as well.
4684 [Richard Levitte]
4685
4686 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4687 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4688 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4689 false once a handshake has been completed.
4690 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4691 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4692 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4693 client has followed the request.)
4694 [Bodo Moeller]
4695
4696 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4697 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4698 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4699 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4700
4701 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4702 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4703 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4704 [Bodo Moeller]
4705
4706 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4707 [Steve Henson]
4708
4709 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4710 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4711 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4712 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4713
4714 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4715 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4716 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4717
4718 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4719 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4720 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4721 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4722 [Geoff Thorpe]
4723
4724 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4725 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4726 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4727 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4728 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4729 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4730 [Geoff Thorpe]
4731
4732 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4733 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4734 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4735 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4736 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4737 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4738 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4739 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4740 [Geoff Thorpe]
4741
4742 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4743 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4744 [Geoff Thorpe]
4745
4746 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4747 [Ben Laurie]
4748
4749 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4750 md_data void pointer.
4751 [Ben Laurie]
4752
4753 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4754 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4755 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4756 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4757 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4758 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4759 [Ben Laurie]
4760
4761 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4762 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4763 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4764 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4765 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4766 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4767 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4768 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4769 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4770 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4771 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4772 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4773 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4774 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4775 rather than letting it slide.
4776
4777 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4778 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4779 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4780 [Geoff Thorpe]
4781
4782 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4783 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4784 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4785 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4786 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4787 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4788 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4789 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4790 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4791 [Geoff Thorpe]
4792
4793 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4794 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4795 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4796 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4797 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
4798
4799 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
4800 [Geoff Thorpe]
4801
4802 *) Add EVP test program.
4803 [Ben Laurie]
4804
4805 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
4806 [Ben Laurie]
4807
4808 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
4809 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4810 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4811 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4812 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4813 [Steve Henson]
4814
4815 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
4816 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
4817 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
4818 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4819 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4820 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
4821 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
4822
4823 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
4824 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4825 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
4826 Usage example:
4827
4828 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4829
4830 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4831 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4832 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4833 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4834 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
4835
4836 [Ben Laurie]
4837
4838 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
4839 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4840 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4841 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
4842 anyway): E.g.,
4843
4844 des_key_schedule ks;
4845
4846 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4847 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4848
4849 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
4850 [Ben Laurie]
4851
4852 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
4853 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4854 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4855 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4856 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4857 functions prevents this.
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
4860 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
4861 [Ben Laurie]
4862
4863 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
4864 correct _ecb suffix.
4865 [Ben Laurie]
4866
4867 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
4868 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4869 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4870 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4871 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
4872 [Steve Henson]
4873
4874 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
4875 [Richard Levitte]
4876
4877 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
4878 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4879 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4880 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4881
4882 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4883 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4884
4885 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
4886 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4887 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
4888 via Richard Levitte]
4889
4890 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
4891 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
4892 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
4893 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
4894 [Geoff Thorpe]
4895
4896 *) Speed up EVP routines.
4897 Before:
4898 encrypt
4899 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes

4912 [Ben Laurie]
4913
4914 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
4915 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
4916
4917 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
4918 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
4919 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
4920 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
4921 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
4922 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
4923 [Steve Henson]
4924
4925 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
4926 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
4927 [Richard Levitte]
4928
4929 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
4930 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
4931 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
4932 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
4933
4934 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
4935 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
4936 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
4937 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
4938 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
4939 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
4940 callback.
4941 [Richard Levitte]
4942
4943 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
4944 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
4945 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
4946 and interrupts/cancellations.
4947 [Richard Levitte]
4948
4949 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
4950 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
4951 [Steve Henson]
4952
4953 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
4954 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
4955 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
4956
4957 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
4958 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
4959 kind of callback.
4960 [Richard Levitte]
4961
4962 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
4963 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
4964 than this minimum value is recommended.
4965 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4966
4967 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
4968 that are easily reachable.
4969 [Richard Levitte]
4970
4971 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
4972 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
4973
4974 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
4975
4976 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
4977 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
4978 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
4979 needed for static libraries under Win32.
4980 [Steve Henson]
4981
4982 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
4983 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4984 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4985 [Steve Henson]
4986
4987 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
4988 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
4989 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
4990 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
4991 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
4992 internally such as S/MIME.
4993
4994 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
4995 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
4996 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
4997
4998 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
4999 applications.
5000 [Steve Henson]
5001
5002 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5003 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5004 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5005 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5006
5007 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5008
5009 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5010
5011 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5012 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5013 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5014 handling.
5015 [Steve Henson]
5016
5017 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5018 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5019 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5020 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5021 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5022 a window system and the like.
5023 [Richard Levitte]
5024
5025 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5026 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5027 [Geoff]
5028
5029 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5030 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5031 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5032 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5033 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5034 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5035 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5036 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5037 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5038 ENGINE structure.
5039 [Geoff]
5040
5041 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5042 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5043 tag cache.
5044 [Steve Henson]
5045
5046 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5047 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5048 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5049 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5050 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5051 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5052 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5053 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5054 [Geoff]
5055
5056 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5057 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5058 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5059 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5060 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5061 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5062 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5063 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5064 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5065 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5066 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5067 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5068 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5069 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5070 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5071 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5072 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5073 [Geoff]
5074
5075 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5076 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5077 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5078 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5079 internal engine_int.h header.
5080 [Geoff]
5081
5082 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5083 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5084 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5085 modify their own ones).
5086 [Geoff]
5087
5088 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5089 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5090 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5091 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5092 later on via ctrl() commands.
5093 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5094 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5095 structural references.
5096 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5097 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5098 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5099 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5100 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5101 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5102 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5103 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5104 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5105 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5106 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5107 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5108 [Geoff]
5109
5110 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5111 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5112 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5113 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5114 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5115 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5116 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5117 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5118 [Bodo Moeller]
5119
5120 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5121 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5122 [Steve Henson]
5123
5124 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5125 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5126 [Steve Henson]
5127
5128 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5129 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5130 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5131 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5132 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5133 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5134 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5135 [Steve Henson]
5136
5137 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5138 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5139 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5140 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5141 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5142
5143 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5144 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5145 generator).
5146 [Bodo Moeller]
5147
5148 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5149
5150 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5151 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5152 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5153
5154 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5155 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5156
5157 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5158 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5159 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5160
5161 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5162 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5163
5164 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5165 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5166
5167 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5168
5169 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5170 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5171 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5172 [Bodo Moeller]
5173
5174 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5175 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5176 [Richard Levitte]
5177
5178 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5179 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5180 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5181 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5182 is 40 of more characters long.
5183 [Steve Henson]
5184
5185 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5186 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5187 pointers.
5188 [Steve Henson]
5189
5190 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5191 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5192 [Bodo Moeller]
5193
5194 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5195 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5196 might.
5197 [Steve Henson]
5198
5199 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5200
5201 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5202 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5203
5204 ASN1 error codes
5205 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5206 ...
5207 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5208 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5209 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5210 ...
5211 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5212 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5213
5214 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5215 [Bodo Moeller]
5216
5217 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5218 suffices.
5219 [Bodo Moeller]
5220
5221 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5222 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5223 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5224 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5225 and
5226 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5227
5228 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5229 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5230
5231 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5232 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5233 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5234 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5235 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5236 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5237
5238 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5239 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5240
5241 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5242 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5243
5244 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5245 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5246
5247 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5248 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5249 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5250 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5251
5252 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5253 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5254
5255 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5256 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5257
5258 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5259 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5260 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5261 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5262 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5263 [Richard Levitte]
5264
5265 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5266 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5267 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5268 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5269 [Steve Henson]
5270
5271 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5272 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5273 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5274 trust settings.
5275 [Steve Henson]
5276
5277 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5278 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5279 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5280 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5281 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5282 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5283 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5284 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5285 ocsp utility.
5286 [Steve Henson]
5287
5288 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5289 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5290 [Steve Henson]
5291
5292 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5293 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5294 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5295 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5296 [Steve Henson]
5297
5298 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5299 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5300 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5301 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5302 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5303 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5304 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5305 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5306 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5307 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5308 [Steve Henson]
5309
5310 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5311 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5312 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5313 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5314 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5315 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5316 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5317 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5318
5319 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5320 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5321 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5322 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5323 [Richard Levitte]
5324
5325 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5326 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5327 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5328 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5329 opensslconf.h.
5330 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5331 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5332 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5333 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5334 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5335 what is available.
5336 [Richard Levitte]
5337
5338 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5339 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5340 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5341 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5342 auto incremented.
5343 [Steve Henson]
5344
5345 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5346 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5347 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5348 [Steve Henson]
5349
5350 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5351 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5352 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5353 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5354 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5355 [Steve Henson]
5356
5357 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5358 [Steve Henson]
5359
5360 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5361 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5362 option to ocsp utility.
5363 [Steve Henson]
5364
5365 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5366 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5367 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5368 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5369 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5370 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5371 the request is nonce-less.
5372 [Steve Henson]
5373
5374 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5375 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5376 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5377 [Bodo Moeller]
5378
5379 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5380 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5381 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5382 [Steve Henson]
5383
5384 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5385 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5386 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5387 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5388 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5389 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5390
5391 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5392 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5393 appear to exist.
5394 [Steve Henson]
5395
5396 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5397 additional certificates supplied.
5398 [Steve Henson]
5399
5400 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5401 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5402 signature against.
5403 [Richard Levitte]
5404
5405 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5406 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5407 AES OIDs.
5408
5409 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5410 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5411 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5412 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5413 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5414 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5415 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5416 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5417 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5418
5419 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5420 request to response.
5421 [Steve Henson]
5422
5423 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5424 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5425 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5426 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5427 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5428 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5429 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5430 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5431 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5432 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5433 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5434 [Steve Henson]
5435
5436 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5437 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5438 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5439 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5440 [Steve Henson]
5441
5442 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5443 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5444
5445 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5446 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5447 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5448 [Steve Henson]
5449
5450 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5451 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5452 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5453 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5454 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5455
5456 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5457 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5458 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5459 [Steve Henson]
5460
5461 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5462 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5463 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5464 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5465 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5466 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5467 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5468 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5469
5470 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5471 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5472 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5473 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5474 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5475 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5476 [Steve Henson]
5477
5478 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5479 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5480 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5481 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5482 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5483 printout format cleaned up.
5484 [Steve Henson]
5485
5486 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5487 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5488 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5489 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5490 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5491 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5492 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5493 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5494 [Steve Henson]
5495
5496 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5497 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5498 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5499 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5500 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5501 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5502 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5503 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5504 [Steve Henson]
5505
5506 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5507 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5508 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5509 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5510 section to use.
5511 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5512
5513 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5514 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5515 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5516 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5517 [Steve Henson]
5518
5519 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5520 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5521 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5522 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5523 in the index file.
5524 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5525
5526 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5527 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5528 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5529 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5530
5531 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5532 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5533
5534 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5535 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5536 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5537 [Steve Henson]
5538
5539 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5540 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5541 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5542 [Bodo Moeller]
5543
5544 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5545 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5546 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5547 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5548 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5549 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5550 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5551 functions are provided:
5552
5553 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5554 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5555 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5556 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5557
5558 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5559 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5560 extended allocation function is enabled.
5561 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5562 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5563 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5564
5565 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5566 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5567 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5568 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5569 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5570 [Geoff Thorpe]
5571
5572 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5573 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5574 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5575 be queried.
5576 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5577 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5578 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5579 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5580
5581 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5582 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5583 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5584 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5585 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5586 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5587 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5588 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5589 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5590 [Richard Levitte]
5591
5592 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5593 provide utility functions which an application needing
5594 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5595 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5596 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5597
5598 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5599 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5600 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5601 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5602 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5603 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5604 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5605 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5606 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5607
5608 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5609 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5610 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5611 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5612 [Steve Henson]
5613
5614 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5615 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5616 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5617 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5618 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5619 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5620 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5621 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5622 will be added elsewhere.
5623 [Steve Henson]
5624
5625 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5626 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5627 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5628 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5629 [Steve Henson]
5630
5631 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5632 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5633 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5634 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5635 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5636 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5637 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5638 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5639 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5640 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5641 to produce the required SET OF.
5642 [Steve Henson]
5643
5644 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5645 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5646 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5647 [Richard Levitte]
5648
5649 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5650 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5651 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5652 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5653 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5654 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5655 [Steve Henson]
5656
5657 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5658 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5659 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5660 [Steve Henson]
5661
5662 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5663 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5664 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5665 [Richard Levitte]
5666
5667 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5668 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5669 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5670 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5671 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5672 [Steve Henson]
5673
5674 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5675 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5676 [Steve Henson]
5677
5678 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5679 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5680 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5681 certifcates and CRLs.
5682 [Steve Henson]
5683
5684 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5685 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5686 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5687 [Steve Henson]
5688
5689 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5690 entries for variables.
5691 [Steve Henson]
5692
5693 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5694 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5695 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5696 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5697 [Bodo Moeller]
5698
5699 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5700 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5701 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5702 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5703 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5704 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5705 [Bodo Moeller]
5706
5707 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5708 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5709
5710 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5711 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5712 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5713 [Steve Henson]
5714
5715 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5716 print routines.
5717 [Steve Henson]
5718
5719 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5720 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5721 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5722 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5723 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5724 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5725 [Steve Henson]
5726
5727 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5728 [Steve Henson]
5729
5730 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5731 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5732 for now but they will eventually go away.
5733 [Steve Henson]
5734
5735 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5736 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5737 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5738 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5739 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5740 has also been converted to the new form.
5741 [Steve Henson]
5742
5743 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5744 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5745 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5746 for negative moduli.
5747 [Bodo Moeller]
5748
5749 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5750 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5751 [Bodo Moeller]
5752
5753 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5754 set.
5755 [Bodo Moeller]
5756
5757 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5758 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5759 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5760 type-specific callbacks.
5761 [Geoff Thorpe]
5762
5763 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5764 RFC 2712.
5765 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5766 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5767
5768 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5769 in sections depending on the subject.
5770 [Richard Levitte]
5771
5772 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5773 Windows.
5774 [Richard Levitte]
5775
5776 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5777 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5778 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5779 be handled deterministically).
5780 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5781
5782 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5783 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5784 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5785 [Bodo Moeller]
5786
5787 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5788 [Bodo Moeller]
5789
5790 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5791 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5792 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5793 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5794 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5795 [Bodo Moeller]
5796
5797 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
5798 sign of the number in question.
5799
5800 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5801
5802 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5803 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5804 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5805 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5806 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
5807 [Bodo Moeller]
5808
5809 *) New function BN_swap.
5810 [Bodo Moeller]
5811
5812 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
5813 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
5814 results on negative inputs.
5815 [Bodo Moeller]
5816
5817 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
5818 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
5819 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
5820 [Bodo Moeller]
5821
5822 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
5823 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
5824 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
5825 and add new functions:
5826
5827 BN_nnmod
5828 BN_mod_sqr
5829 BN_mod_add
5830 BN_mod_add_quick
5831 BN_mod_sub
5832 BN_mod_sub_quick
5833 BN_mod_lshift1
5834 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
5835 BN_mod_lshift
5836 BN_mod_lshift_quick
5837
5838 These functions always generate non-negative results.
5839
5840 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
5841 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
5842
5843 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
5844 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
5845 be reduced modulo m.
5846 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5847
5848 #if 0
5849 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
5850 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5851 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5852
5853 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5854 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5855 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5856 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5857 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5858 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5859 differing sizes.
5860 [Richard Levitte]
5861 #endif
5862
5863 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
5864 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5865 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5866 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5867 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5868
5869 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5870 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5871 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5872 cause any problems.
5873 [Bodo Moeller]
5874
5875 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
5876 [Richard Levitte]
5877
5878 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
5879 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5880 [Richard Levitte]
5881
5882 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
5883 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5884 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5885 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5886 time)
5887 [Richard Levitte]
5888
5889 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
5890 [Richard Levitte]
5891
5892 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
5893 [Richard Levitte]
5894
5895 *) Add the following functions:
5896
5897 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5898 ENGINE_load_chil()
5899 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5900 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5901 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5902
5903 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5904 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5905 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5906 libraries unless it's really needed.
5907
5908 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5909 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5910 declarations (they differed!).
5911 [Richard Levitte]
5912
5913 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
5914 [Richard Levitte]
5915
5916 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
5917 [Richard Levitte]
5918
5919 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
5920 [Bodo Moeller]
5921
5922 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
5923 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5924 [Richard Levitte]
5925
5926 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
5927 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
5928 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5929
5930 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
5931 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5932 [Richard Levitte]
5933
5934 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
5935 [Richard Levitte]
5936
5937 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
5938 [Richard Levitte]
5939
5940 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
5941 [Ben Laurie]
5942
5943 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
5944 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5945 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5946
5947 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
5948 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5949 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5950 different shared library filenames on each system.
5951 [Geoff Thorpe]
5952
5953 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
5954 [Richard Levitte]
5955
5956 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
5957 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5958 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5959 of two sections.
5960 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5961
5962 *) NCONF changes.
5963 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5964 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5965 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5966 binary backward compatibility.
5967 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5968 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5969 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5970 LDAP server.
5971 [Richard Levitte]
5972
5973 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
5974 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5975 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5976 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5977 this case.
5978 [Steve Henson]
5979
5980 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
5981 [Ben Laurie]
5982
5983 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
5984 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5985 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
5986 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
5987 set.
5988 [Steve Henson]
5989
5990 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
5991 [Richard Levitte]
5992
5993 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
5994
5995 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5996 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5997 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5998
5999 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6000
6001 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6002
6003 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6004 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6005 [Steve Henson]
6006
6007 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6008
6009 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6010
6011 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6012 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6013
6014 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6015 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6016
6017 [Steve Henson]
6018
6019 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6020 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6021 specifications.
6022 [Steve Henson]
6023
6024 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6025 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6026 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6027 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6028
6029 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6030 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6031 [Richard Levitte]
6032
6033 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6034
6035 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6036 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6037 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6038 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6039 [Bodo Moeller]
6040
6041 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6042 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6043 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6044 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6045 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6046
6047 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6048 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6049 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6050 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6051 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6052 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6053 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6054 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6055 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6056 [Bodo Moeller]
6057
6058 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6059
6060 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6061 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6062 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6063 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6064 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6065
6066 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6067 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6068 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6069
6070 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6071
6072 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6073 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6074 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6075 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6076 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6077 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6078 [Geoff Thorpe]
6079
6080 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6081 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6082 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6083 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6084 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6085 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6086
6087 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6088 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6089 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6090
6091 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6092 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6093 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6094 EVP_cleanup().
6095 [Richard Levitte]
6096
6097 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6098 being properly terminated.
6099 [Richard Levitte]
6100
6101 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6102 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6103 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6104 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6105
6106 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6107 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6108 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6109 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6110 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6111 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6112 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6113 change.
6114 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6115
6116 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6117 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6118 [Bodo Moeller]
6119
6120 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6121 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6122 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6123 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6124 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6125 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6126 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6127 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6128
6129 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6130 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6131 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6132 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6133 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6134
6135 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6136 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6137 [Steve Henson]
6138
6139 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6140
6141 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6142 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6143 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6144
6145 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6146
6147 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6148 and get fix the header length calculation.
6149 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6150 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6151 Steve Henson]
6152
6153 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6154 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6155 assertions could call abort()).
6156 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6157
6158 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6159
6160 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6161 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6162 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6163 supplied buffer.
6164 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6165
6166 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6167 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6168 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6169 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6170
6171 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6172 [Nils Larsch]
6173
6174 *) New option
6175 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6176 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6177 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6178
6179 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6180 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6181 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6182 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6183 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6184 applications.
6185 [Bodo Moeller]
6186
6187 *) Changes in security patch:
6188
6189 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6190 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6191 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6192 F30602-01-2-0537.
6193
6194 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6195 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6196 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6197 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6198 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6199
6200 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6201 happen in practice.
6202 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6203
6204 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6205 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6206 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6207
6208 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6209 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6210 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6211
6212 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6213 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6214 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6215
6216 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6217
6218 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6219 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6220 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6221
6222 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6223 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6224
6225 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6226 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6227 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6228 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6229 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6230 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6231 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6232
6233 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6234 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6235 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6236 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6237 [Bodo Moeller]
6238
6239 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6240 [Bodo Moeller]
6241
6242 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6243 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6244 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6245 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6246 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6247 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6248
6249 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6250 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6251 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6252 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6253 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6254 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6255
6256 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6257 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6258 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6259 BN_generate_prime().)
6260
6261 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6262 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6263 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6264 better.
6265 [Bodo Moeller]
6266
6267 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6268 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6269 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6270
6271 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6272 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6273 when using non-blocking I/O.
6274 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6275
6276 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6277 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6278
6279 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6280 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6281 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6282
6283 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6284 configuration for the versions before that.
6285 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6286
6287 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6288 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6289 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6290 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6291 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6292
6293 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6294 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6295 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6296 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6297
6298 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6299 value is 0.
6300 [Richard Levitte]
6301
6302 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6303 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6304 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6305
6306 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6307 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6308
6309 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6310 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6311 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6312 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6313 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6314 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6315 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6316 session cache.
6317
6318 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6319 using a local variable.
6320 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6321
6322 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6323 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6324 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6325
6326 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6327 [Richard Levitte]
6328
6329 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6330 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6331
6332 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6333 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6334 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6335
6336 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6337
6338 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6339 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6340 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6341 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6342 [Bodo Moeller]
6343
6344 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6345 present.
6346 [Steve Henson]
6347
6348 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6349 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6350 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6351 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6352 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6353
6354 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6355 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6356 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6357
6358 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6359 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6360 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6361
6362 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6363 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6364 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6365 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6366
6367 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6368 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6369 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6370 modules).
6371 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6372
6373 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6374 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6375 from 0.9.7.
6376 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6377
6378 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6379 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6380 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6381 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6382
6383 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6384 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6385 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6386 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6387
6388 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6389 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6390
6391 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6392 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6393 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6394 [Bodo Moeller]
6395
6396 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6397 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6398 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6399 become invalid.
6400 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6401
6402 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6403 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6404 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6405 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6406 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6407 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6408 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6409 [Bodo Moeller]
6410
6411 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6412 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6413 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6414 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6415
6416 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6417 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6418 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6419 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6420 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6421 the client will at least see that alert.
6422 [Bodo Moeller]
6423
6424 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6425 correctly.
6426 [Bodo Moeller]
6427
6428 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6429 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6430 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6431
6432 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6433 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6434 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6435 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6436 HelloRequest.
6437
6438 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6439 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6440 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6441
6442 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6443 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6444 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6445 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6446 may leak via logfiles.)
6447
6448 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6449 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6450 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6451 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6452 the legal range.
6453 [Bodo Moeller]
6454
6455 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6456 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6457 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6458
6459 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6460 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6461 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6462 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6463 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6464 [Bodo Moeller]
6465
6466 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6467 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6468
6469 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6470 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6471 followed by modular reduction.
6472 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6473
6474 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6475 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6476 [Bodo Moeller]
6477
6478 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6479 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6480 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6481 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6482 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6483
6484 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6485 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6486
6487 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6488 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6489 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6490
6491 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6492 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6493 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6494 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6495 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6496 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6497 automatically.
6498 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6499
6500 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6501 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6502 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6503 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6504 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6505
6506 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6507 [Andy Polyakov]
6508
6509 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6510 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6511 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6512 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6513 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6514 to allow the necessary settings.
6515 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6516
6517 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6518 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6519 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6520 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6521 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6522
6523 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6524 dh->length and always used
6525
6526 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6527
6528 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6529 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6530 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6531 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6532 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6533 dh->length.
6534
6535 So switch back to
6536
6537 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6538
6539 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6540 otherwise.
6541 [Bodo Moeller]
6542
6543 *) In
6544
6545 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6546 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6547 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6548 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6549
6550 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6551 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6552 always reject numbers >= n.
6553 [Bodo Moeller]
6554
6555 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6556 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6557 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6558 variable) is not atomic.
6559 [Bodo Moeller]
6560
6561 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6562 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6563 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6564 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6565
6566 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6567 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6568
6569 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6570 little-endian MIPS.
6571 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6572
6573 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6574 [Richard Levitte]
6575
6576 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6577
6578 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6579 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6580 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6581 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6582 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6583 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6584 to traverse all of 'state'.
6585
6586 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6587 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6588 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6589
6590 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6591 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6592
6593 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6594 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6595 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6596 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6597 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6598 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6599 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6600 further strengthens the PRNG.
6601 [Bodo Moeller]
6602
6603 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6604 [Andy Polyakov]
6605
6606 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6607 an error message in this case.
6608 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6609
6610 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6611 [Steve Henson]
6612
6613 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6614 positive and less than q.
6615 [Bodo Moeller]
6616
6617 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6618 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6619 that itself.
6620 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6621
6622 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6623 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6624 [Bodo Moeller]
6625
6626 *) Fix OAEP check.
6627 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6628
6629 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6630 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6631 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6632 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6633 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6634 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6635 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6636 paper.)
6637
6638 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6639 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6640 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6641 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6642
6643 Both problems are now fixed.
6644 [Bodo Moeller]
6645
6646 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6647 (previously it was 1024).
6648 [Bodo Moeller]
6649
6650 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6651 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6652 [Steve Henson]
6653
6654 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6655 [Steve Henson]
6656
6657 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6658 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6659 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6660 [Steve Henson]
6661
6662 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6663 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6664 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6665 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6666 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6667 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6668 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6669 environment variables.
6670
6671 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6672 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6673 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6674 [Bodo Moeller]
6675
6676 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6677 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6678 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6679 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6680 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6681 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6682 [Bodo Moeller]
6683
6684 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6685 versions of 'test'.
6686 [Bodo Moeller]
6687
6688 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6689
6690 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6691 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6692
6693 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6694 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6695 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6696 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6697 CygWin.
6698 [Richard Levitte]
6699
6700 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6701 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6702 amount of data available.
6703 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6704 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6705
6706 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6707 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6708 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6709 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6710 [Bodo Moeller]
6711
6712 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6713 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6714 and UnixWare.
6715 [Richard Levitte]
6716
6717 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6718 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6719 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6720 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6721 [Ulf Moeller]
6722
6723 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6724 [Andy Polyakov]
6725
6726 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6727 [Richard Levitte]
6728
6729 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6730 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6731 [Steve Henson]
6732 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6733
6734 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6735 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6736 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6737 (but broken) behaviour.
6738 [Steve Henson]
6739
6740 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6741 it when found.
6742 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6743
6744 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6745 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6746 [Bodo Moeller]
6747
6748 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6749 did not exist.
6750 [Bodo Moeller]
6751
6752 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6753 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6754
6755 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6756 [Richard Levitte]
6757
6758 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6759 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6760 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6761
6762 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6763 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6764 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6765 [Steve Henson]
6766
6767 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6768 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6769 [Ulf Moeller]
6770
6771 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6772 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6773
6774 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6775
6776 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6777
6778 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6779 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6780 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6781 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6782 [Bodo Moeller]
6783
6784 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6785 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6786
6787 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6788 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6789 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6790
6791 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6792 was empty.
6793 [Steve Henson]
6794 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6795
6796 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6797 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6798 but the code is actually correct.
6799 [Steve Henson]
6800
6801 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6802 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6803 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6804 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6805 and leaves the highest bit random.
6806 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6807
6808 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6809 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6810 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6811 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6812 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6813 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6814 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6815 [Bodo Moeller]
6816
6817 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6818 [Ulf Moeller]
6819
6820 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6821 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6822 [Steve Henson]
6823
6824 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6825 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6826 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6827 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6828 headers.
6829 [Richard Levitte]
6830
6831 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6832 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6833 and break the signature.
6834 [Steve Henson]
6835 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6836
6837 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6838 DH ciphersuites.
6839 [Steve Henson]
6840
6841 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6842 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6843 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6844 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6845 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6846 [Bodo Moeller]
6847
6848 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6849 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6850
6851 *) ./config script fixes.
6852 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6853
6854 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6855 [Bodo Moeller]
6856
6857 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6858 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6859 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6860 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6861 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6862
6863 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6864 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6865 [Bodo Moeller]
6866
6867 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6868 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6869 [Steve Henson]
6870
6871 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6872 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6873 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6874 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6875
6876 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6877 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6878
6879 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6880 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6881 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6882 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6883 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6884
6885 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6886 [Bodo Moeller]
6887
6888 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6889 [Ulf Möller]
6890
6891 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6892 [Ulf Möller]
6893
6894 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6895 [Bodo Moeller]
6896
6897 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6898 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6899 [Bodo Moeller]
6900
6901 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6902 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6903 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6904 result of the server certificate verification.)
6905 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6906
6907 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6908 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6909 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6910 [Bodo Moeller]
6911
6912 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6913 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6914 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6915 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6916 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6917 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6918 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6919 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6920 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6921 [Bodo Moeller]
6922
6923 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6924 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6925 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6926 happening the other way round.
6927 [Geoff Thorpe]
6928
6929 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6930 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6931 [Bodo Moeller]
6932
6933 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6934 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6935 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6936 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6937 [Richard Levitte]
6938
6939 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6940 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6941
6942 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6943
6944 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6945 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6946 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6947 that.
6948
6949 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6950
6951 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6952
6953 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6954 static ones.
6955 [Richard Levitte]
6956
6957 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6958
6959 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6960 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6961 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6962 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6963 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6964
6965 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6966 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6967 matter what.
6968 [Richard Levitte]
6969
6970 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6971 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6972
6973 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
6974
6975 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6976 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6977 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6978 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6979 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
6980 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
6981 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6982 by the Finished messages.
6983 [Bodo Moeller]
6984
6985 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
6986 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
6987
6988 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
6989 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
6990 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
6991 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
6992 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
6993 appropriately.
6994 [Steve Henson]
6995
6996 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
6997 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
6998 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
6999 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7000 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7001 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7002 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7003 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7004 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7005 together.
7006 [Steve Henson]
7007
7008 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7009 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7010 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7011 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7012
7013 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7014 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7015 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7016 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7017 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7018 the answer.
7019
7020 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7021 been tested well enough.
7022 [Richard Levitte]
7023
7024 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7025 it can return incorrect results.
7026 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7027 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7028 [Bodo Moeller]
7029
7030 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7031 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7032 include zero length content when signing messages.
7033 [Steve Henson]
7034
7035 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7036 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7037 [Bodo Möller]
7038
7039 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7040 [Richard Levitte]
7041
7042 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7043 wrong sign.
7044 [Ulf Möller]
7045
7046 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7047 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7048 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7049 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7050 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7051 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7052 [Richard Levitte]
7053
7054 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7055 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7056
7057 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7058 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7059
7060 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7061 random number < q in the DSA library.
7062 [Ulf Möller]
7063
7064 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7065 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7066 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7067 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7068 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7069 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7070 just makes things more complicated.)
7071 [Bodo Moeller]
7072
7073 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7074 from EGD.
7075 [Ben Laurie]
7076
7077 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7078 work better on such systems.
7079 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7080
7081 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7082 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7083 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7084 [Steve Henson]
7085
7086 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7087 if there was more than one signature.
7088 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7089
7090 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7091 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7092 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7093 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7094 [Richard Levitte]
7095
7096 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7097 rather than always using the current time.
7098 [Steve Henson]
7099
7100 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7101 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7102 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7103 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7104 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7105 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7106
7107 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7108 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7109
7110 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7111
7112 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7113 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7114 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7115 the same hash value.
7116
7117 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7118 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7119 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7120 with X509_STORE internally.
7121
7122 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7123 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7124
7125 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7126 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7127 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7128 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7129 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7130 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7131 entirely (maybe later...).
7132
7133 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7134
7135 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7136 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7137 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7138 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7139 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7140 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7141 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7142 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7143
7144 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7145 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7146
7147 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7148 to customise the verify behaviour.
7149 [Steve Henson]
7150
7151 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7152 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7153 [Steve Henson]
7154
7155 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7156 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7157 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7158 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7159 request is improperly encoded.
7160 [Steve Henson]
7161
7162 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7163 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7164 BIO_write(b, ...).
7165
7166 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7167 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7168
7169 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7170 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7171 words set to zero.)
7172 [Bodo Moeller]
7173
7174 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7175 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7176 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7177 [Bodo Moeller]
7178
7179 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7180 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7181 BIO/fp routines also added.
7182 [Steve Henson]
7183
7184 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7185 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7186
7187 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7188 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7189 demos/state_machine.
7190 [Ben Laurie]
7191
7192 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7193 generation and verification.
7194 [Steve Henson]
7195
7196 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7197 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7198 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7199 encode and decode it manually.
7200 [Steve Henson]
7201
7202 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7203 compile under VC++.
7204 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7205
7206 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7207 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7208 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7209 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7210
7211 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7212 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7213 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7214 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7215 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7216 [Steve Henson]
7217
7218 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7219 [Richard Levitte]
7220
7221 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7222 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7223 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7224
7225 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7226 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7227 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7228 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7229 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7230 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7231 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7232 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7233
7234 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7235 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7236
7237 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7238
7239 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7240 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7241 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7242
7243 [Richard Levitte]
7244
7245 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7246 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7247 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7248 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7249 [Richard Levitte]
7250
7251 *) MD4 implemented.
7252 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7253
7254 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7255 [Richard Levitte]
7256
7257 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7258 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7259 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7260 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7261 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7262 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7263 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7264 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7265 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7266 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7267 short or long names are found.
7268 [Steve Henson]
7269
7270 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7271 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7272
7273 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7274 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7275 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7276 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7277
7278 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7279 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7280 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7281 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7282 [Bodo Moeller]
7283
7284 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7285 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7286 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7287 [Richard Levitte]
7288
7289 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7290 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7291 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7292 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7293 to allow the various flags to be set.
7294 [Steve Henson]
7295
7296 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7297 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7298 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7299 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7300 dates to be checked.
7301 [Steve Henson]
7302
7303 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7304 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7305 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7306 [Steve Henson]
7307
7308 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7309 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7310 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7311 [Steve Henson]
7312
7313 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7314 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7315 [Bodo Moeller]
7316
7317 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7318 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7319 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7320 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7321 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7322 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7323 [Richard Levitte]
7324
7325 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7326 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7327 Random Numbers.
7328 [Ulf Möller]
7329
7330 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7331 DSA key.
7332 [Steve Henson]
7333
7334 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7335 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7336 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7337 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7338 form signing output easier to verify.
7339 [Steve Henson]
7340
7341 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7342 [Steve Henson]
7343
7344 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7345 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7346 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7347 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7348 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7349 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7350 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7351 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7352 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7353 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7354 [Steve Henson]
7355
7356 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7357
7358 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7359 the syntax given in objects.README.
7360 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7361 obj_mac.h.
7362 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7363 obj_mac.h.
7364
7365 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7366 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7367 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7368 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7369 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7370 consistent name changes.
7371 [Richard Levitte]
7372
7373 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7374 [Bodo Moeller]
7375
7376 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7377 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7378 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7379 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7380 [Richard Levitte]
7381
7382 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7383 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7384 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7385 of safestack.h .
7386 [Steve Henson]
7387
7388 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7389 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7390 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7391 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7392 [Steve Henson]
7393
7394 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7395 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7396 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7397 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7398 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7399 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7400 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7401 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7402 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7403 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7404 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7405 [Steve Henson]
7406
7407 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7408 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7409 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7410 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7411 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7412 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7413 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7414 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7415 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7416 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7417 [Steve Henson]
7418
7419 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7420 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7421 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7422 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7423
7424 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7425 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7426 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7427 omit any duplicate addresses.
7428 [Steve Henson]
7429
7430 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7431 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7432 [Bodo Moeller]
7433
7434 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7435 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7436 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7437 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7438 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7439 [Bodo Moeller]
7440
7441 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7442 software:
7443 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7444 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7445 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7446 Free => OPENSSL_free
7447 [Richard Levitte]
7448
7449 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7450 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7451 [Bodo Moeller]
7452
7453 *) CygWin32 support.
7454 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7455
7456 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7457 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7458 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7459 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7460 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7461 approach.
7462 [Geoff Thorpe]
7463
7464 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7465 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7466 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7467 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7468 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7469 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7470 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7471 [Geoff Thorpe]
7472
7473 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7474 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7475 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7476 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7477 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7478 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7479 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7480 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7481 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7482 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7483 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7484 [Bodo Moeller]
7485
7486 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7487 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7488 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7489 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7490 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7491
7492 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7493 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7494 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7495 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7496 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7497
7498 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7499 ciphers.
7500
7501 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7502 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7503 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7504 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7505
7506 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7507
7508 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7509 of macros.
7510
7511 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7512 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7513 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7514 flags.
7515
7516 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7517 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7518 any installed hardware versions can.
7519 [Steve Henson]
7520
7521 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7522 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7523 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7524 number.
7525 [Bodo Moeller]
7526
7527 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7528 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7529 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7530 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7531 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7532
7533 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7534 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7535 [Steve Henson]
7536
7537 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7538 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7539 [Richard Levitte]
7540
7541 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7542 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7543 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7544 features.
7545 [Steve Henson]
7546
7547 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7548 [Ulf Möller]
7549
7550 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7551 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7552 but no ssl client purpose.
7553 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7554
7555 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7556 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7557 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7558 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7559 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7560 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7561 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7562 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7563 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7564 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7565 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7566 [Steve Henson]
7567
7568 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7569 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7570 be obtained from the error queue.
7571 [Bodo Moeller]
7572
7573 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7574 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7575 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7576 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7577 [Bodo Moeller]
7578
7579 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7580 [Ulf Möller]
7581
7582 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7583 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7584 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7585 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7586 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7587 [Geoff Thorpe]
7588
7589 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7590 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7591 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7592 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7593 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7594 [Geoff Thorpe]
7595
7596 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7597 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7598 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7599 may not be NULL.
7600 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7601
7602 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7603 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7604 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7605 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7606 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7607 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7608 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7609 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7610 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7611 or "the configuration storage API"...
7612
7613 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7614
7615 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7616 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7617
7618 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7619
7620 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7621
7622 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7623 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7624 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7625 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7626 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7627 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7628 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7629
7630 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7631 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7632 [Richard Levitte]
7633
7634 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7635 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7636 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7637 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7638 [Bodo Moeller]
7639
7640 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7641 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7642 them in a portable way.
7643 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7644
7645 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7646
7647 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7648
7649 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7650 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7651
7652 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7653 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7654 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7655 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7656
7657 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7658 was larger than the MD block size.
7659 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7660
7661 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7662 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7663 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7664 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7665 components.
7666 [Steve Henson]
7667
7668 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7669 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7670 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7671
7672 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7673 discouraged.
7674 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7675
7676 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7677 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7678 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7679 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7680 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7681 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7682
7683 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7684 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7685
7686 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7687 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7688 [Bodo Moeller]
7689
7690 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7691 [Bodo Moeller]
7692
7693 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7694 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7695 its own key.
7696 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7697 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7698 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7699 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7700 [Bodo Moeller]
7701
7702 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7703 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7704 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7705 does not suppress any output.
7706 [Richard Levitte]
7707
7708 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7709 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7710 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7711 with all the associated security issues.
7712
7713 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7714 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7715 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7716 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7717 use the value in the default purpose.
7718 [Steve Henson]
7719
7720 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7721 and fix a memory leak.
7722 [Steve Henson]
7723
7724 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7725 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7726 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7727 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7728 [Bodo Moeller]
7729
7730 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7731 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7732 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7733 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7734 [Bodo Moeller]
7735
7736 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7737 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7738 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7739 [Bodo Moeller]
7740
7741 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7742 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7743 [Bodo Moeller]
7744
7745 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7746 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7747 which was free.
7748 [Steve Henson]
7749
7750 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7751 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7752 [Bodo Moeller]
7753
7754 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7755 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7756 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7757 [Bodo Moeller]
7758
7759 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7760 number generation fails.
7761 [Bodo Moeller]
7762
7763 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7764 [Bodo Moeller]
7765
7766 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7767 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7768
7769 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7770 [Ulf Möller]
7771
7772 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7773 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7774
7775 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7776 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7777
7778 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7779
7780 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7781 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7782 [Steve Henson]
7783
7784 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7785 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7786
7787 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7788 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7789 [Ulf Möller]
7790
7791 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7792 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7793 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7794 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7795 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7796 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7797
7798 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7799 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7800 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7801 for example.
7802 [Steve Henson]
7803
7804 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7805 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7806 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7807 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7808 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7809 counter, some don't.)
7810 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7811 counters or duplicate objects.
7812 [Steve Henson]
7813
7814 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7815 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7816 [Steve Henson]
7817
7818 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7819 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7820 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7821
7822 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7823 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7824 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7825 or -rand.
7826 [Ulf Möller]
7827
7828 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7829 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7830 [Steve Henson]
7831
7832 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7833 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7834 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7835 cipher list.
7836 [Steve Henson]
7837
7838 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7839 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7840 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7841 [Steve Henson]
7842
7843 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7844 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7845 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7846 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7847 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7848 should work without changes.
7849 [Richard Levitte]
7850
7851 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7852 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7853 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7854 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7855 must be defined. E.g.,
7856 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7857 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7858 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
7859 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
7860
7861 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7862 record layer.
7863 [Bodo Moeller]
7864
7865 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7866 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7867 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7868 [Steve Henson]
7869
7870 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7871 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7872 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7873 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7874 [Steve Henson]
7875
7876 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7877 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7878 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7879 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7880 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7881 is prompted for as usual.
7882 [Steve Henson]
7883
7884 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7885 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7886 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7887 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7888
7889 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7890 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7891 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7892 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7893 [Steve Henson]
7894
7895 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7896 [Andy Polyakov]
7897
7898 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7899 of seed file.
7900 [Steve Henson]
7901
7902 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
7903 [Bodo Moeller]
7904
7905 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7906 [Steve Henson]
7907
7908 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7909 bits.
7910 [Ulf Möller]
7911
7912 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7913 [Ulf Möller]
7914
7915 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7916 [Andy Polyakov]
7917
7918 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7919 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7920 [Ulf Möller]
7921
7922 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7923 options to produce them.
7924 [Steve Henson]
7925
7926 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7927 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7928 [Ulf Möller]
7929
7930 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7931 for p == 0.
7932 [Ulf Möller]
7933
7934 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7935 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7936 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7937 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7938 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7939 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7940 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7941 [Steve Henson]
7942
7943 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7944 [Steve Henson]
7945
7946 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7947 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7948 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7949 [Bodo Moeller]
7950
7951 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
7952 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
7953
7954 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7955 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7956 [Ulf Möller]
7957
7958 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7959 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7960 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7961 has already seen).
7962 [Bodo Moeller]
7963
7964 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7965 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7966
7967 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7968 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7969 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7970 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7971 generation becomes much faster.
7972
7973 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
7974 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7975 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7976 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7977 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7978 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7979 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7980 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7981 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7982 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
7983 [Bodo Moeller]
7984
7985 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
7986 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
7987 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
7988 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
7989 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
7990 trial division stage.
7991 [Bodo Moeller]
7992
7993 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
7994 as ASN1_TIME.
7995 [Steve Henson]
7996
7997 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
7998 [Steve Henson]
7999
8000 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8001 [Ulf Möller]
8002
8003 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8004 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8005 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8006 the comments.
8007 [Ulf Möller]
8008
8009 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8010 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8011 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8012 [Bodo Moeller]
8013
8014 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8015 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8016 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8017 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8018
8019 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8020 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8021 [Steve Henson]
8022
8023 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8024 [Ulf Möller]
8025
8026 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8027 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8028 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8029 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8030 [Ulf Möller]
8031
8032 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8033 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8034 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8035 [Ulf Möller]
8036
8037 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8038 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8039 (instead of parameters) in future.
8040 [Steve Henson]
8041
8042 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8043 when a new cipher list is set.
8044 [Steve Henson]
8045
8046 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8047 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8048 wrong.
8049
8050 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8051 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8052 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8053
8054 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8055 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8056 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8057 an error is flagged.
8058
8059 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8060 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8061 the readability was also increased :-)
8062 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8063
8064 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8065 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8066 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8067 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8068 as the root CA.
8069 [Steve Henson]
8070
8071 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8072 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8073 [Steve Henson]
8074
8075 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8076 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8077 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8078 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8079 instead.
8080
8081 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8082 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8083 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8084 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8085 because they handle more complex structures.)
8086 [Steve Henson]
8087
8088 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8089 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8090 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8091 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8092
8093 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8094 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8095 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8096 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8097 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8098 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8099 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8100 [Ulf Möller]
8101
8102 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8103 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8104 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8105 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8106 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8107 [Bodo Moeller]
8108
8109 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8110 [Bodo Moeller]
8111
8112 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8113 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8114 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8115 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8116 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8117 to use this.
8118
8119 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8120 code.
8121 [Steve Henson]
8122
8123 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8124 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8125 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8126 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8127 [Steve Henson]
8128
8129 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8130 [Ulf Möller]
8131
8132 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8133 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8134 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8135 international characters are used.
8136
8137 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8138 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8139 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8140 in ASN1 order.
8141 [Steve Henson]
8142
8143 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8144 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8145 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8146 request.
8147
8148 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8149 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8150 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8151 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8152 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8153 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8154
8155 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8156 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8157 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8158 be handled by the string table functions.
8159
8160 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8161 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8162 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8163 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8164 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8165 types at all.
8166 [Steve Henson]
8167
8168 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8169 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8170 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8171 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8172 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8173
8174 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8175 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8176 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8177 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8178 [Bodo Moeller]
8179
8180 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8181 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8182 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8183 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8184 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8185 SHA1.
8186 [Andy Polyakov]
8187
8188 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8189 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8190 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8191 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8192 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8193 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8194 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8195 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8196
8197 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8198 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8199 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8200 [Steve Henson]
8201
8202 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8203 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8204 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8205 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8206 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8207 support to pkcs8 application.
8208 [Steve Henson]
8209
8210 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8211 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8212 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8213 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8214 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8215 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8216 [Bodo Moeller]
8217
8218 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8219 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8220 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8221 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8222 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8223 consistency.
8224 [Bodo Moeller]
8225
8226 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8227 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8228 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8229 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8230 example.
8231 [Steve Henson]
8232
8233 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8234 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8235 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8236 and any application specific purposes.
8237
8238 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8239 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8240 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8241 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8242 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8243 if the certificate is self signed.
8244 [Steve Henson]
8245
8246 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8247 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8248 [Steve Henson]
8249
8250 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8251 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8252 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8253 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8254 [Steve Henson]
8255
8256 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8257 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8258 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8259 Update documentation.
8260 [Steve Henson]
8261
8262 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8263 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8264 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8265 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8266 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8267 [Steve Henson]
8268
8269 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8270 for details.
8271 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8272
8273 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8274 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8275 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8276 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8277 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8278 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8279 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8280 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8281 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8282 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8283
8284 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8285
8286 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8287 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8288 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8289 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8290 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8291
8292 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8293 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8294 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8295 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8296 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8297 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8298 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8299 request additional information:
8300 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8301 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8302
8303 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8304 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8305 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8306 options.
8307
8308 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8309 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8310
8311 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8312 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8313 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8314
8315 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8316 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8317
8318 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8319 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8320 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8321 algorithm.
8322 [Steve Henson]
8323
8324 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8325 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8326 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8327
8328 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8329 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8330 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8331 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8332 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8333 included in OpenSSL.
8334 [Steve Henson]
8335
8336 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8337 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8338 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8339 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8340 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8341 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8342 [Bodo Moeller]
8343
8344 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8345 PKCS12 structure.
8346 [Steve Henson]
8347
8348 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8349 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8350 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8351 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8352 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8353 structure.
8354 [Steve Henson]
8355
8356 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8357 need initialising.
8358 [Steve Henson]
8359
8360 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8361 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8362 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8363 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8364 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8365 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8366 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8367 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8368 be maintained manually.
8369
8370 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8371 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8372 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8373 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8374 work because people forget to call this function]
8375 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8376 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8377 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8378 [Steve Henson]
8379
8380 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8381 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8382 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8383 should be discouraged from doing it.
8384 [Ben Laurie]
8385
8386 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8387 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8388 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8389 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8390 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8391 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8392 [Steve Henson]
8393
8394 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8395 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8396 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8397
8398 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8399 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8400 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8401
8402 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8403 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8404 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8405 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8406 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8407 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8408
8409 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8410 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8411 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8412
8413 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8414 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8415 and vice versa.
8416
8417 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8418 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8419 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8420 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8421 [Steve Henson]
8422
8423 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8424 [Steve Henson]
8425
8426 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8427 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8428 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8429 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8430 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8431 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8432 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8433 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8434 keys so we should be OK.
8435
8436 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8437 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8438 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8439 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8440 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8441 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8442 stay in the name of compatibility.
8443
8444 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8445 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8446 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8447
8448 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8449 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8450 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8451 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8452 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8453 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8454 supplied key).
8455 [Steve Henson]
8456
8457 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8458 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8459 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8460 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8461 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8462 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8463 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8464 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8465 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8466 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8467 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8468 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8469 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8470 [Steve Henson]
8471
8472 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8473 [Steve Henson]
8474
8475 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8476 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8477 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8478 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8479 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8480 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8481 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8482 openssl verify ss.pem
8483 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8484 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8485 is OK.
8486 [Steve Henson]
8487
8488 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8489 (and add it to external session representation).
8490 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8491 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8492 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8493 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8494 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8495 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8496 security holes.
8497 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8498
8499 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8500 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8501 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8502 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8503
8504 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8505 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8506 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8507 [Steve Henson]
8508
8509 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8510 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8511 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8512 code.
8513 [Steve Henson]
8514
8515 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8516 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8517 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8518
8519 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8520 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8521 certificate auxiliary information.
8522 [Steve Henson]
8523
8524 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8525 the 'enc' command.
8526 [Steve Henson]
8527
8528 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8529 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8530 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8531 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8532 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8533 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8534 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8535 [Richard Levitte]
8536
8537 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8538 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8539 [Steve Henson]
8540
8541 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8542 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8543 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8544 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8545 [Steve Henson]
8546
8547 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8548 [Steve Henson]
8549
8550 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8551 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8552 [Steve Henson]
8553
8554 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8555 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8556 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8557 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8558 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8559 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8560 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8561 using the new 'x509' options.
8562
8563 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8564 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8565 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8566 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8567 for all purposes.
8568 [Steve Henson]
8569
8570 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8571 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8572 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8573 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8574 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8575 [Mark Cox]
8576
8577 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8578 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8579 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8580 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8581 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8582 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8583 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8584 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8585 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8586 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8587 [Steve Henson]
8588
8589 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8590 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8591 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8592 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8593 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8594 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8595 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8596 [Steve Henson]
8597
8598 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8599 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8600 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8601 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8602 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8603 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8604 openssl.cnf for more info.
8605 [Steve Henson]
8606
8607 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8608 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8609 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8610 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8611 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8612 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8613 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8614 md should be large enough anyway.
8615 [Bodo Moeller]
8616
8617 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8618 for handling the random seed file.
8619
8620 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8621 ca,
8622 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8623 s_client,
8624 s_server,
8625 x509 (when signing).
8626 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8627 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8628 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8629
8630 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8631 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8632 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8633 that support '-rand'.
8634 [Bodo Moeller]
8635
8636 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8637 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8638 [Bodo Moeller]
8639
8640 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8641 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8642 [Bill Perry]
8643
8644 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8645 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8646 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8647 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8648 is suitable.
8649 [Steve Henson]
8650
8651 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8652 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8653 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8654 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8655 [Steve Henson]
8656
8657 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8658 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8659 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8660 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8661 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8662 print out all the purposes.
8663 [Steve Henson]
8664
8665 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8666 functions.
8667 [Steve Henson]
8668
8669 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8670 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8671 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8672 single function call.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8676 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8677 [Andy Polyakov]
8678
8679 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8680 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8681 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8682 [Steve Henson]
8683
8684 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8685 when producing the local key id.
8686 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8687
8688 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8689 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8690 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8691 "server.pem".
8692 [Steve Henson]
8693
8694 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8695 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8696 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8697 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8698 [Steve Henson]
8699
8700 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8701 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8702 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8703 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8704
8705 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8706 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8707 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8708 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8709
8710 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8711 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8712 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8713 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8714 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8715 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8716 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8717 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8718 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8719 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8720 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8721 trivial: move one line.
8722 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8723
8724 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8725 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8726 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8727 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8728 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8729 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8730 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8731 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8732 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8733 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8734 with an event loop for example.
8735 [Steve Henson]
8736
8737 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8738 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8739 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8740 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8741 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8742 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8743 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8744 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8745 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8746 [Steve Henson]
8747
8748 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8749 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8750 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8751 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8752 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8753 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8754 [Steve Henson]
8755
8756 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8757 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8758 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8759 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8760
8761 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8762 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8763 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8764 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8765 key generation.
8766 [Steve Henson]
8767
8768 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8769 (still largely untested)
8770 [Bodo Moeller]
8771
8772 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8773 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8774 [Steve Henson]
8775
8776 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8777 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8778 [Steve Henson]
8779
8780 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8781 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8782 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8783 [Bodo Moeller]
8784
8785 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8786 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8787 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8788 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8789 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8790 [Steve Henson]
8791
8792 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8793 [Andy Polyakov]
8794
8795 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8796 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8797 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8798 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8799 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8800 in ca.
8801 [Steve Henson]
8802
8803 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8804 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8805 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8806 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8807 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8808 [Steve Henson]
8809
8810 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8811 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8812 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8813 are otherwise ignored at present.
8814 [Steve Henson]
8815
8816 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
8817 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
8818 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8819 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8820 copied until the next read.
8821 [Steve Henson]
8822
8823 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8824 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8825 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8826 [Steve Henson]
8827
8828 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8829 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8830 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8831 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8832 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8833 associated functions.
8834 [Steve Henson]
8835
8836 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8837 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8838 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8839 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8840 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8841 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8842 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8843 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8844 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
8845 memory BIOs.
8846 [Steve Henson]
8847
8848 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8849 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8850 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8851 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8852 [Bodo Moeller]
8853
8854 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8855 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8856 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8857 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8858 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8859 functionality.
8860 [Steve Henson]
8861
8862 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8863 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8864 under Win32.
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
8868 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8869 extensions to be obtained and added.
8870 [Steve Henson]
8871
8872 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
8873 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
8874 [Bodo Moeller]
8875
8876 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
8877
8878 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8879 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8880
8881 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
8882 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
8883
8884 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8885 program.
8886 [Steve Henson]
8887
8888 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8889 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8890 DH parameters contain its length).
8891
8892 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8893 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8894 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8895 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8896 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8897 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8898 utter importance to use
8899 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8900 or
8901 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8902 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8903 attacks may become possible!
8904 [Bodo Moeller]
8905
8906 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8907 [Bodo Moeller]
8908
8909 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8910 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8911 [Steve Henson]
8912
8913 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8914 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8915 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8916 or long name.
8917 [Steve Henson]
8918
8919 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8920 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8921 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8922 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
8923 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8924 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8925 private key operations.
8926 [Steve Henson]
8927
8928 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
8929 [Andy Polyakov]
8930
8931 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8932 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8933 to
8934 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8935 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8936 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8937 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8938 the password callback is called.
8939 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
8940
8941 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8942
8943 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8944 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8945 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8946 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8947 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8948 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8949 this will work.
8950
8951 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
8952 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
8953 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
8954 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
8955 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
8956 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
8957 [Bodo Moeller]
8958
8959 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
8960 [Andy Polyakov]
8961
8962 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
8963 delete an unused file.
8964 [Ulf Möller]
8965
8966 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8967 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8968 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
8969 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
8970 [Steve Henson]
8971
8972 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
8973 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
8974 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
8975 of an error.
8976 [Bodo Moeller]
8977
8978 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
8979 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
8980 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8981
8982 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
8983 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
8984 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
8985 comparison" warnings.
8986 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
8987 [Steve Henson]
8988
8989 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
8990 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
8991 derived keys are printed to stderr.
8992 [Steve Henson]
8993
8994 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
8995 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
8996
8997 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
8998 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
8999
9000 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9001 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9002 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9003
9004 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9005 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9006 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9007 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9008 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9009 this bug.
9010 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9011
9012 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9013 The interface is as follows:
9014 Applications can use
9015 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9016 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9017 "off" is now the default.
9018 The library internally uses
9019 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9020 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9021 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9022
9023 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9024 even the default) are now avoided.
9025
9026 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9027 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9028 than just having a counter.
9029
9030 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9031
9032 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9033 extensions.
9034 [Bodo Moeller]
9035
9036 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9037 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9038 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9039 Initial "mode" flags are:
9040
9041 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9042 a single record has been written.
9043 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9044 retries use the same buffer location.
9045 (But all of the contents must be
9046 copied!)
9047 [Bodo Moeller]
9048
9049 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9050 worked.
9051
9052 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9053 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9054
9055 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9056 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9057 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9058 [Steve Henson]
9059
9060 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9061 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9062 test programs.
9063 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9064
9065 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9066 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9067 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9068 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9069 point to the end.
9070 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9071 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9072
9073 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9074 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9075 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9076 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9077 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9078 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9079 [Steve Henson]
9080
9081 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9082 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9083 necessary function names.
9084 [Steve Henson]
9085
9086 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9087 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9088 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9089 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9090 [Bodo Moeller]
9091
9092 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9093 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9094 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9095 [Steve Henson]
9096
9097 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9098 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9099 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9100 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9101 such programs?)
9102 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9103 need locks.
9104 [Bodo Moeller]
9105
9106 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9107 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9108 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9109 [Bodo Moeller]
9110
9111 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9112 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9113 appropriate.
9114 [Bodo Moeller]
9115
9116 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9117 for the encoded length.
9118 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9119
9120 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9121 [Steve Henson]
9122
9123 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9124 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9125 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9126 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9127 [Steve Henson]
9128
9129 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9130 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9131 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9132
9133 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9134 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9135 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9136 unusual formatting.
9137 [Steve Henson]
9138
9139 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9140 to use the new extension code.
9141 [Steve Henson]
9142
9143 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9144 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9145 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9146 constant.
9147 [Steve Henson]
9148
9149 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9150 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9151 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9152 [Bodo Moeller]
9153
9154 #if 0
9155 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9156 [Ben Laurie]
9157 #else
9158 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9159 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9160 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9161 #endif
9162
9163 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9164 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9165 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9166 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9167 [Ben Laurie]
9168
9169 *) DES library cleanups.
9170 [Ulf Möller]
9171
9172 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9173 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9174 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9175 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9176 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9177 of v2.0.
9178 [Steve Henson]
9179
9180 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9181 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9182 [Bodo Moeller]
9183
9184 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9185 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9186 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9187 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9188 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9189 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9190 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9191 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9192 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9193 [Steve Henson]
9194
9195 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9196 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9197 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9198 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9199 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9200 value doesn't matter.
9201 [Steve Henson]
9202
9203 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9204 support mutable.
9205 [Ben Laurie]
9206
9207 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9208 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9209 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9210 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9211
9212 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9213 [Ulf Möller]
9214
9215 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9216 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9217 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9218
9219 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9220 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9221
9222 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9223 [Ben Laurie]
9224
9225 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9226 [Ben Laurie]
9227
9228 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9229 [Ben Laurie]
9230
9231 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9232 [Bodo Moeller]
9233
9234
9235 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9236
9237 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9238
9239 *) Updated some demos.
9240 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9241
9242 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9243 [Wu Zhigang]
9244
9245 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9246 [Steve Henson]
9247
9248 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9249 [Steve Henson]
9250
9251 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9252 instead of using a fixed path.
9253 [Bodo Moeller]
9254
9255 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9256 [Andy Polyakov]
9257
9258 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9259 [Richard Levitte]
9260
9261
9262 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9263
9264 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9265 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9266 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9267
9268 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9269 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9270 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9271 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9272 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9273 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9274 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9275 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9276 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9277 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9278 [Steve Henson]
9279
9280 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9281 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9282 [Steve Henson]
9283
9284 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9285 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9286 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9287 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9288 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9289
9290 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9291 [Bodo Moeller]
9292
9293 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9294 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9295 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9296 [Steve Henson]
9297
9298 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9299 [Ben Laurie]
9300
9301 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9302 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9303 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9304 key elements as negative integers.
9305 [Steve Henson]
9306
9307 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9308 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9309
9310 *) VMS support.
9311 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9312
9313 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9314 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9315 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9316 [Steve Henson]
9317
9318 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9319 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9320 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9321 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9322 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9323 [Bodo Moeller]
9324
9325 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9326 [Ulf Möller]
9327
9328 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9329 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9330 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9331 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9332
9333 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9334 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9335 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9336
9337 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9338 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9339 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9340 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9341 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9342 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9343 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9344 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9345 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9346
9347 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9348 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9349 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9350 does not influence s as it used to.
9351
9352 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9353 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9354 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9355 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9356 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9357 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9358 [Bodo Moeller]
9359
9360 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9361 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9362 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9363 key type.
9364 [Steve Henson]
9365
9366 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9367 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9368 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9369 and 'x509').
9370 [Steve Henson]
9371
9372 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9373 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9374 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9375 extension option.
9376 [Steve Henson]
9377
9378 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9379 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9380 [Ben Laurie]
9381
9382 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9383 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9384
9385 *) Support Mingw32.
9386 [Ulf Möller]
9387
9388 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9389 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9390
9391 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9392 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9393
9394 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9395 [Ulf Möller]
9396
9397 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9398 [Anonymous]
9399
9400 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9401 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9402
9403 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9404 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9405 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9406 DER-encoded.)
9407 [Bodo Moeller]
9408
9409 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9410 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9411 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9412 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9413 now it really counts the depth.
9414 [Bodo Moeller]
9415
9416 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9417 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9418 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9419 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9420 didn't match the private key).
9421
9422 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9423 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9424 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9425 [Bodo Moeller]
9426
9427 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9428 [Ulf Möller]
9429
9430 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9431 David Harris.
9432 [Bodo Moeller]
9433
9434 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9435 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9436 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9437 [Bodo Moeller]
9438
9439 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9440 [Bodo Moeller]
9441
9442 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9443 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9444 such as /usr/local/bin.
9445 [Bodo Moeller]
9446
9447 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9448 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9449
9450 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9451 [Ulf Möller]
9452
9453 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9454 extension adding in x509 utility.
9455 [Steve Henson]
9456
9457 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9458 [Ulf Möller]
9459
9460 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9461 prototypes.
9462 [Steve Henson]
9463
9464 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9465 [Ulf Möller]
9466
9467 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9468 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9469 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9470 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9471 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9472 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9473 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9474 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9475 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9476 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9477 [Steve Henson]
9478
9479 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9480 [Bodo Moeller]
9481
9482 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9483 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9484 [Bodo Moeller]
9485
9486 *) Fix some race conditions.
9487 [Bodo Moeller]
9488
9489 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9490 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9491 [Steve Henson]
9492
9493 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9494 [Ulf Möller]
9495
9496 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9497 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9498 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9499 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9500
9501 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9502 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9503
9504 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9505 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9506 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9507
9508 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9509 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9510
9511 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9512 [Ulf Möller]
9513
9514 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9515 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9516
9517 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9518 [Ulf Möller]
9519
9520 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9521 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9522
9523 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9524 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9525 [Steve Henson]
9526
9527 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9528 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9529 [Ben Laurie]
9530
9531 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9532 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9533 [Steve Henson]
9534
9535 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9536 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9537 [Steve Henson]
9538
9539 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9540 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9541 [Steve Henson]
9542
9543 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9544 support typesafe stack.
9545 [Steve Henson]
9546
9547 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9548 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9549
9550 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9551 old X509V3 handling code.
9552 [Steve Henson]
9553
9554 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9555 [Ulf Möller]
9556
9557 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9558 [Bodo Moeller]
9559
9560 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9561 [Ben Laurie]
9562
9563 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9564 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9565
9566 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9567 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9568 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9569 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9570 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9571 [Ben Laurie]
9572
9573 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9574 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9575 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9576 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9577 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9578
9579 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9580 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9581 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9582 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9583
9584 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9585 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9586 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9587 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9588
9589 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9590 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9591 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9592 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9593 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9594 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9595 [Bodo Moeller]
9596
9597 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9598 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9599 [Bodo Moeller]
9600
9601 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9602 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9603 [Ulf Möller]
9604
9605 *) Tweaks to Configure
9606 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9607
9608 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9609 yet...
9610 [Steve Henson]
9611
9612 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9613 [Ulf Möller]
9614
9615 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9616 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9617 [Ulf Möller]
9618
9619 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9620 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9621 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9622 [Bodo Moeller]
9623
9624 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9625 [Bodo Moeller]
9626
9627 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9628 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9629 [Steve Henson]
9630
9631 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9632 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9633 to library startup routines.
9634 [Steve Henson]
9635
9636 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9637 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9638 codes along the way.
9639 [Steve Henson]
9640
9641 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9642 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9643 objects to objects.h
9644 [Steve Henson]
9645
9646 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9647 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9648 [Steve Henson]
9649
9650 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9651 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9652
9653 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9654 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9655 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9656
9657 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9658 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9659 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9660
9661 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9662 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9663 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9664
9665
9666 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9667
9668 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9669 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9670 [Ben Laurie]
9671
9672 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9673 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9674 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9675 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9676 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9677
9678 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9679 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9680 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9681 document.
9682 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9683
9684 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9685 Malloc, Free.
9686 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9687
9688 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9689 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9690
9691 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9692 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9693 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9694 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9695
9696 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9697 [Ben Laurie]
9698
9699 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9700 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9701 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9702 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9703 [Steve Henson]
9704
9705 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9706 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9707 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9708 [Steve Henson]
9709
9710 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9711 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9712 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9713 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9714 installed as `perl').
9715 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9716
9717 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9718 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9719
9720 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9721 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9722 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9723 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9724 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9725 [Steve Henson]
9726
9727 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9728 [Ben Laurie]
9729
9730 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9731 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9732 is horrible: I feel ill....
9733 [Steve Henson]
9734
9735 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9736 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9737 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9738 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9739 [Steve Henson]
9740
9741 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9742 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9743
9744 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9745 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9746 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9747 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9748
9749 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9750 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9751 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9752 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9753 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9754 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9755 openssl_bio.xs.
9756 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9757
9758 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9759 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9760
9761 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9762 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9763
9764 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9765 [Ben Laurie]
9766
9767 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9768 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9769 in CRLs.
9770 [Steve Henson]
9771
9772 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9773 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9774 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9775 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9776 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9777 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9778 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9779 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9780 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9781 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9782 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9783
9784 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9785 [Ben Laurie]
9786
9787 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9788 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9789 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9790 for linking it into DSOs.
9791 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9792
9793 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9794 Fixed.
9795 [Ben Laurie]
9796
9797 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9798 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9799 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9800 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9801 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9802 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9803
9804 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9805 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9806 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9807 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9808 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9809 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9810 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9811
9812 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9813 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9814 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9815 encryption.
9816 [Ben Laurie]
9817
9818 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9819 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9820 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9821 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9822 [Steve Henson]
9823
9824 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9825 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9826 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9827 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9828 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9829 field as blank.
9830 [Steve Henson]
9831
9832 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9833 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9834 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9835 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9836 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9837
9838 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9839 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9840 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9841
9842 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9843 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9844
9845 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9846 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9847 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9848 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9849 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9850 [Steve Henson]
9851
9852 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9853 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9854 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9855 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9856 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
9857 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9858 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9859 [Ben Laurie]
9860
9861 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9862 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9863 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9864 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9865 [Ben Laurie]
9866
9867 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9868 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
9869
9870 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9871 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9872 [Steve Henson]
9873
9874 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9875 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9876 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9877 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9878 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9879 (e.g. s_server).
9880 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9881 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9882 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9883 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9884 no way to reconfigure them.
9885 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9886 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9887 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9888 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9889 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9890 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9891
9892 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9893 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9894 recognized by the users.
9895 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9896
9897 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9898 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9899 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9900 already masked variable.
9901 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9902
9903 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
9904 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9905
9906 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9907 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9908 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
9909 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9910
9911 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9912 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9913 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9914
9915 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9916 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9917 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9918 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9919 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9920 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9921 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9922 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9923 now, too.
9924 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9925
9926 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
9927 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
9928 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9929
9930 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
9931 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
9932 config file.
9933 [Steve Henson]
9934
9935 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
9936 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9937
9938 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9939 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9940 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
9941 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
9942 [Ben Laurie]
9943
9944 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
9945 [Steve Henson]
9946
9947 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
9948 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9949
9950 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
9951 [Ben Laurie]
9952
9953 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
9954 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
9955 [Steve Henson]
9956
9957 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
9958 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
9959 [Steve Henson]
9960
9961 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9962 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9963 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9964 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9965 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9966 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
9967 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
9968 Ben Laurie]
9969
9970 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9971 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9972
9973 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9974 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9975 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9976 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9977 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9978
9979 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9980 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
9981 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
9982 [Steve Henson]
9983
9984 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9985 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
9986 an example.
9987 [Steve Henson]
9988
9989 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
9990 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
9991 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9992
9993 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
9994 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
9995 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
9996 build instructions.
9997 [Steve Henson]
9998
9999 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10000 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10001 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10002 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10003 [Steve Henson]
10004
10005 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10006 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10007 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10008 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10009 [Ben Laurie]
10010
10011 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10012 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10013 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10014 so it wasn't spotted.
10015 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10016
10017 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10018 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10019 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10020 vectors if you have them.
10021 [Ben Laurie]
10022
10023 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10024 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10025 [Ben Laurie]
10026
10027 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10028 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10029 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10030 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10031 If you do a:
10032 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10033 it will update them.
10034 [Steve Henson]
10035
10036 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10037 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10038 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10039 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10040 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10041 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10042 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10043 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10044
10045 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10046 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10047 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10048 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10049 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10050 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10051 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10052 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10053 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10054 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10055
10056 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10057 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10058 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10059 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10060 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10061 [Steve Henson]
10062
10063 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10064 INTEGER code.
10065 [Steve Henson]
10066
10067 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10068 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10069
10070 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10071 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10072
10073 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10074 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10075 [Ben Laurie]
10076
10077 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10078 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10079
10080 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10081 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10082
10083 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10084 [Steve Henson]
10085
10086 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10087 few typos.
10088 [Steve Henson]
10089
10090 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10091 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10092 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10093 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10094
10095 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10096 [Steve Henson]
10097
10098 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10099 [Steve Henson]
10100
10101 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10102 [Steve Henson]
10103
10104 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10105 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10106 [Steve Henson]
10107
10108 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10109 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10110 CA extensions.
10111 [Steve Henson]
10112
10113 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10114 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10115 [Steve Henson]
10116
10117 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10118 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10119 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10120 [Steve Henson]
10121
10122 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10123 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10124 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10125 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10126 properly to be processed.
10127 [Steve Henson]
10128
10129 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10130 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10131 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10132 [Ben Laurie]
10133
10134 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10135 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10136
10137 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10138 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10139 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10140 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10141 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10142 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10143 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10144 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10145 or delete all the .err files.
10146 [Steve Henson]
10147
10148 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10149 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10150 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10151 to regenerate it if needed.
10152 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10153 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10154
10155 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10156 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10157
10158 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10159 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10160 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10161 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10162 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10163 [Steve Henson]
10164
10165 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10166 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10167
10168 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10169 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10170
10171 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10172 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10173 error, but didn't set one).
10174 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10175
10176 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10177 [Ben Laurie]
10178
10179 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10180 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10181 [Steve Henson]
10182
10183 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10184 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10185
10186 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10187 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10188 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10189 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10190 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10191 OID is not part of the table.
10192 [Steve Henson]
10193
10194 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10195 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10196 [Ben Laurie]
10197
10198 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10199 [Ben Laurie]
10200
10201 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10202 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10203 was "1234").
10204 [Steve Henson]
10205
10206 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10207 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10208
10209 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10210 NULL pointers.
10211 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10212
10213 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10214 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10215
10216 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10217 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10218
10219 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10220 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10221
10222 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10223 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10224 [Ben Laurie]
10225
10226 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10227 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10228 [Steve Henson]
10229
10230 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10231 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10232
10233 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10234 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10235
10236 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10237 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10238
10239 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10240 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10241
10242 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10243 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10244 unused in the certificate verification process.
10245 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10246
10247 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10248 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10249 [Steve Henson]
10250
10251 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10252 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10253 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10254
10255 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10256 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10257 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10258 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10259 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10260
10261 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10262 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10263 [Steve Henson]
10264
10265 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10266 [Steve Henson]
10267
10268 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10269 [Paul Sutton]
10270
10271 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10272 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10273
10274 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10275 [Ben Laurie]
10276
10277 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10278 [Ben Laurie]
10279
10280 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10281 [Ben Laurie]
10282
10283 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10284 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10285 other error libraries.
10286 [Steve Henson]
10287
10288 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10289 [Steve Henson]
10290
10291 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10292 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10293 be read in.
10294 [Steve Henson]
10295
10296 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10297 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10298 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10299 the new set of documenation files.
10300 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10301
10302 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10303 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10304 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10305 number of arguments.
10306 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10307
10308 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10309 [Ben Laurie]
10310
10311 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10312 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10313 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10314
10315 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10316 [Ben Laurie]
10317
10318 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10319 nextstep
10320 ncr-scde
10321 unixware-2.0
10322 unixware-2.0-pentium
10323 sco5-cc.
10324 [Ben Laurie]
10325
10326 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10327 before they are needed.
10328 [Ben Laurie]
10329
10330 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10331 [Ben Laurie]
10332
10333
10334 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10335
10336 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10337 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10338 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10339
10340 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10341 [Paul Sutton]
10342
10343 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10344 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10345 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10346
10347 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10348 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10349 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10350
10351 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10352 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10353 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10354
10355 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10356 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10357
10358 *) Updated the README file.
10359 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10360
10361 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10362 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10363 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10364
10365 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10366 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10367 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10368
10369 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10370 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
10371 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
10372 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
10373 o removed obsolete TODO file
10374 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10375 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10376
10377 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10378 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10379 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10380 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10381 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10382 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10383 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10384
10385 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10386 [Mark J. Cox]
10387
10388 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10389 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10390 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10391 summer 1998.
10392 [The OpenSSL Project]
10393
10394
10395 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
10396
10397 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
10398 [Eric A. Young]
10399
10400 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
10401 [Eric A. Young]
10402
10403 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10404 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10405 [Eric A. Young]
10406
10407 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10408 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10409 available).
10410 [Eric A. Young]
10411
10412 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10413 binary structures
10414 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
10415
10416 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
10417 [Eric A. Young]
10418
10419 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
10420 [Eric A. Young]
10421
10422 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
10423 [Eric A. Young]
10424
10425 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
10426 [Eric A. Young]
10427
10428 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
10429 [Eric A. Young]
10430
10431 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
10432 [Eric A. Young]
10433
10434 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
10435 [Eric A. Young]
10436
10437 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
10438 [Eric A. Young]
10439
10440 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
10441 [Eric A. Young]
10442
10443 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
10444 [Eric A. Young]
10445
10446 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
10447 [Eric A. Young]
10448
10449 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
10450 [Eric A. Young]
10451
10452 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
10453 [Eric A. Young]
10454
10455 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
10456 [Eric A. Young]
10457
10458 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
10459 [Eric A. Young]
10460
10461 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
10462 [Eric A. Young]
10463
10464 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
10465 [Eric A. Young]
10466
10467 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
10468 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
10469 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10470 [Eric A. Young]
10471
10472 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10473 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10474 [Eric A. Young]
10475
10476 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
10477 [Eric A. Young]
10478
10479 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
10480 [Eric A. Young]
10481
10482 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
10483 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
10484 [Eric A. Young]
10485
10486 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
10487 [Eric A. Young]
10488
10489 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
10490 [Eric A. Young]
10491
10492 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
10493 bytes sent in the client random.
10494 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
10495
