15 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
16
17 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
18 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
19 AES-NI.
20
21 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
22 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
23 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
24 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
25 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
26 bytes.
27
28 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
29 (CVE-2016-2107)
30 [Kurt Roeckx]
31
32 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
33
34 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
35 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
36 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
37 corruption.
38
39 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarly used by
40 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
41 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
42 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
43 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
44 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
45
46 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
47 (CVE-2016-2105)
48 [Matt Caswell]
49
50 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
51
52 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
53 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
54 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
55 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
56 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
57 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
58 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
59 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
60 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
61 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
62 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
63 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
64 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
65 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
66 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
67 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
68
69 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
70 (CVE-2016-2106)
71 [Matt Caswell]
72
73 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
74
75 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
76 a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
77 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
78
79 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
80 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
81 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
82 applications are not affected.
83
84 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
85 (CVE-2016-2109)
86 [Stephen Henson]
87
88 *) EBCDIC overread
89
90 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
91 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
92 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
93
94 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
95 (CVE-2016-2176)
96 [Matt Caswell]
97
98 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
99 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
100 [Todd Short]
101
102 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
103 default.
104 [Kurt Roeckx]
105
106 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
107 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
108 [Kurt Roeckx]
109
110 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
111
112 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
113 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
114 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
115 [Viktor Dukhovni]
116
117 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
118 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
119 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
120 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
121 will need to explicitly call either of:
122
123 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
124 or
125 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
126
127 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
128 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
129 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
130 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
131 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
132 (CVE-2016-0800)
133 [Viktor Dukhovni]
134
135 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
136
137 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
138 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
139 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
140 considered rare.
141
142 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
143 libFuzzer.
144 (CVE-2016-0705)
145 [Stephen Henson]
146
147 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
148
149 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
150
151 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
152 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
153 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
154 is configured.
155
156 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
157 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
158 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
159 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
160 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
161 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
162 that of a valid user.
163 (CVE-2016-0798)
164 [Emilia Käsper]
165
166 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
167
168 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
169 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
170 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
171 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
172 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
173 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
174 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
175 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
176 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
177 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
178 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
179
180 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
181 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
182 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
183 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
184 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
185
186 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
187 (CVE-2016-0797)
188 [Matt Caswell]
189
190 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
191
192 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
193 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
194 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
195
196 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
197 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
198 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
199 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
200 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
201 also occur.
202
203 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
204 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
205 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
206 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
207 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
208 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
209 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
210 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
211 as command line arguments.
212
213 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
214 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
215 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
216
217 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
218 (CVE-2016-0799)
219 [Matt Caswell]
220
221 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
222
223 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
224 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
225 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
226 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
227 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
228
229 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
230 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
231 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
232 http://cachebleed.info.
233 (CVE-2016-0702)
234 [Andy Polyakov]
235
236 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
237 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
238 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
239 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
240 [Emilia Käsper]
241
242 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
243
244 *) DH small subgroups
245
246 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
247 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
248 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
249 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
250 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
251 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
252 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
253 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
254 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
255 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
256
257 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
258 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
259 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
260 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
261 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
262
263 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
264 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
265 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
266 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
267
268 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
269 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
270
271 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
272 (CVE-2016-0701)
273 [Matt Caswell]
274
275 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
276
277 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
278 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
279 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
280 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
281
282 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
283 and Sebastian Schinzel.
284 (CVE-2015-3197)
285 [Viktor Dukhovni]
286
287 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 1024 bits.
288 [Kurt Roeckx]
289
290 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
291
292 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
293
294 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
295 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
296 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
297 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
298 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
299 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
300 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
301 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
302 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
303 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
304 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
305 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.
306
307 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
308 (CVE-2015-3193)
309 [Andy Polyakov]
310
311 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
312
313 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
314 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
315 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
316 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
317 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
318 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
319 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
320 authentication.
321
322 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
323 (CVE-2015-3194)
324 [Stephen Henson]
325
326 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
327
328 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
329 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
330 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
331 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
332
333 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
334 libFuzzer.
335 (CVE-2015-3195)
336 [Stephen Henson]
337
338 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
339 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
340 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
341 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
342 [Emilia Käsper]
343
344 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
345 use a random seed, as already documented.
346 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
347
348 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
349
350 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
351
352 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
353 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
354 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
355 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
356 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
357 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
358
359 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
360 (Google/BoringSSL).
361 (CVE-2015-1793)
362 [Matt Caswell]
363
364 *) Race condition handling PSK identify hint
365
366 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
367 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
368 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
369 identify hint data.
370 (CVE-2015-3196)
371 [Stephen Henson]
372
373 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
374
375 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
376 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
377 restored.
378
379 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
380
381 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
382
383 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
384 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
385 field.
386
387 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
388 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
389 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
390 client authentication enabled.
391
392 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
393 (CVE-2015-1788)
394 [Andy Polyakov]
395
396 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
397
398 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
399 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
400 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
401 time string.
402
403 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
404 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
405 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
406 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
407 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
408 callbacks.
409
410 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
411 independently by Hanno Böck.
412 (CVE-2015-1789)
413 [Emilia Käsper]
414
415 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
416
417 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
418 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
419 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
420
421 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
422 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
423 servers are not affected.
424
425 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
426 (CVE-2015-1790)
427 [Emilia Käsper]
428
429 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
430
431 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
432 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
433 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
434 the CMS code.
435 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
436 (CVE-2015-1792)
437 [Stephen Henson]
438
439 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
440
441 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
442 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
443 a double free of the ticket data.
444 (CVE-2015-1791)
445 [Matt Caswell]
446
447 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
448 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
449 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
450 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
451 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
452 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
453 [Matt Caswell]
454
455 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
456 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
457 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
458 [Emilia Kasper]
459
460 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 768 bits.
461 [Kurt Roeckx and Emilia Kasper]
462
463 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
464
465 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
466
467 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
468 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
469 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
470
471 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
472 University.
473 (CVE-2015-0291)
474 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
475
476 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
477
478 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
479 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
480 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
481 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
482 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
483 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
484 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
485 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
486
487 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
488 (CVE-2015-0290)
489 [Matt Caswell]
490
491 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
492
493 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
494 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
495 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
496 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
497 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
498 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
499 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
500 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
501 server.
502
503 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
504 (CVE-2015-0207)
505 [Matt Caswell]
506
507 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
508
509 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
510 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
511 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
512 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
513 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
514 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
515 (CVE-2015-0286)
516 [Stephen Henson]
517
518 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
519
520 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
521 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
522 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
523 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
524 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
525 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
526 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
527
528 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
529 (CVE-2015-0208)
530 [Stephen Henson]
531
532 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
533
534 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
535 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
536 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
537
538 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
539 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
540 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
541 not affected.
542 (CVE-2015-0287)
543 [Stephen Henson]
544
545 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
546
547 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
548 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
549 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
550
551 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
552 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
553 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
554
555 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
556 (CVE-2015-0289)
557 [Emilia Käsper]
558
559 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
560
561 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
562 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
563 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
564
565 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
566 (OpenSSL development team).
567 (CVE-2015-0293)
568 [Emilia Käsper]
569
570 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
571
572 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
573 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
574 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
575 (CVE-2015-1787)
576 [Matt Caswell]
577
578 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
579
580 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
581 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
582 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
583 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
584 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
585 SSL_client_methodv23)
586 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
587 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
588
589 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
590 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
591 output may be predictable.
592
593 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
594 succeed on an unpatched platform:
595
596 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
597 (CVE-2015-0285)
598 [Matt Caswell]
599
600 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
601
602 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
603 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
604 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
605 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
606 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
607 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
608
609 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
610 commit 517073cd4b.
611 (CVE-2015-0209)
612 [Matt Caswell]
613
614 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
615
616 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
617 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
618
619 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
620 (CVE-2015-0288)
621 [Stephen Henson]
622
623 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
624 [Kurt Roeckx]
625
626 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
627
628 *) Change RSA and DH/DSA key generation apps to generate 2048-bit
629 keys by default.
630 [Kurt Roeckx]
631
632 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
633 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
634 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
635 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
636 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
637 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
638 [Andy Polyakov]
639
640 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
641 (other platforms pending).
642 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
643
644 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
645 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
646 [Rob Stradling]
647
648 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
649 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
650 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
651 [Bodo Moeller]
652
653 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
654 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
655 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
656 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
657 [Andy Polyakov]
658
659 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
660 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
661
662 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
663 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
664 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
665 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
666 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
667
668 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
669 [Andy Polyakov]
670
671 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
672 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
673 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
674 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
675
676 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
677 RSAZ.
678 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
679
680 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
681 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
682 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
683 for TLS encrypt.
684
685 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
686 [Andy Polyakov]
687
688 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
689 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
690 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
691 [Steve Henson]
692
693 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
694 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
695 [Steve Henson]
696
697 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
698 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
699 [Steve Henson]
700
701 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
702 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
703 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
704 algorithms and include tests cases.
705 [Steve Henson]
706
707 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
708 structure.
709 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
710
711 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
712 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
713 [Steve Henson]
714
715 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
716 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
717 summary of the connection parameters.
718 [Steve Henson]
719
720 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
721 of connection parameters.
722 [Steve Henson]
723
724 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
725 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
726
727 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
728 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
729 [Steve Henson]
730
731 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
732 [Steve Henson]
733
734 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
735 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
736 [Steve Henson]
737
738 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
739 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
740 [Steve Henson]
741
742 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
743 certificates.
744 [Steve Henson]
745
746 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
747 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
748 CRLs using the OCSP API.
749 [Steve Henson]
750
751 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
752 [Steve Henson]
753
754 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
755 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
756 [Steve Henson]
757
758 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
759 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
760 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
761 tracing.
762 [Steve Henson]
763
764 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
765 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
766 [Steve Henson]
767
768 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
769 OID NID.
770 [Steve Henson]
771
772 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
773 client to OpenSSL.
774 [Steve Henson]
775
776 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
777 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
778 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
779 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
780 [Steve Henson]
781
782 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
783 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
784 [Steve Henson]
785
786 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
787 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
788 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
789 comparison.
790 [Steve Henson]
791
792 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
793 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
794 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
795 use the certificate.
796 [Steve Henson]
797
798 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
799 [Steve Henson]
800
801 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
802 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
803 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
804 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
805 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
806 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
807 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
808
809 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
810 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
811
812 [Steve Henson]
813
814 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
815 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
816 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
817 [Steve Henson]
818
819 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
820 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
821 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
822 supported signature algorithms.
823 [Steve Henson]
824
825 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
826 [Steve Henson]
827
828 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
829 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
830 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
831 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
832 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
833 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
834 certificate and specify the whole chain.
835 [Steve Henson]
836
837 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
838 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
839 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
840 to have similar checks in it.
841
842 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
843 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
844 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
845 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
846 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
847 [Steve Henson]
848
849 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
850 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
851 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
852 shared signature algorithms.
853 [Steve Henson]
854
855 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
856 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
857 to support them.
858 [Steve Henson]
859
860 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
861 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
862 it couldn't be removed.
863 [Steve Henson]
864
865 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
866 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
867 [Steve Henson]
868
869 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
870 functions. Add manual page.
871 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
872
873 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
874 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
875 a certificate.
876 [Steve Henson]
877
878 *) Fix OCSP checking.
879 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
880
881 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
882 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
883 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
884 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
885 utility) or reject.
886 [Steve Henson]
887
888 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
889 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
890 [Steve Henson]
891
892 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
893 platform support for Linux and Android.
894 [Andy Polyakov]
895
896 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
897 [Andy Polyakov]
898
899 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
900 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
901 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
902 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
903 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
904 [Steve Henson]
905
906 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
907 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
908 the new parameter format automatically.
909 [Steve Henson]
910
911 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
912 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
913 [Steve Henson]
914
915 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
916 [Steve Henson]
917
918 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
919 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
920 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
921 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
922 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
923 [Steve Henson]
924
925 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
926 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
927 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
928 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
929 to set list of supported curves.
930 [Steve Henson]
931
932 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
933 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
934 to print out received values.
935 [Steve Henson]
936
937 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
938 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
939 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
940 [Steve Henson]
941
942 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
943 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
944 [Steve Henson]
945
946 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
947 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
948 [Steve Henson]
949
950 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
951 certificates.
952 [Steve Henson]
953
954 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
955 the certificate.
956 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
957 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
958 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
959
960 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
961
962 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
963 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
964
965 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
966
967 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
968 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
969 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
970 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
971 (CVE-2014-3571)
972 [Steve Henson]
973
974 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
975 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
976 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
977 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
978 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
979 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
980 (CVE-2015-0206)
981 [Matt Caswell]
982
983 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
984 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
985 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
986 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
987 (CVE-2014-3569)
988 [Kurt Roeckx]
989
990 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
991 ECDH ciphersuites.
992
993 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
994 reporting this issue.
995 (CVE-2014-3572)
996 [Steve Henson]
997
998 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
999 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
1000 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
1001 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
1002 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
1003 INRIA or reporting this issue.
1004 (CVE-2015-0204)
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
1008 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
1009 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
1010 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
1011 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
1012 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
1013 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
1014 this issue.
1015 (CVE-2015-0205)
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
1019 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
1020
1021 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
1022 and can vary with the CTX.
1023 [Adam Langley]
1024
1025 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
1026
1027 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
1028 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
1029 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
1030 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
1031 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
1032
1033 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
1034
1035 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
1036 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
1037
1038 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
1039
1040 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
1041 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
1042 errors for some broken certificates.
1043
1044 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
1045
1046 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
1047
1048 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
1049 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
1050
1051 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
1052 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
1053 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
1054 (negative or with leading zeroes).
1055
1056 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
1057 of the OpenSSL core team.
1058
1059 (CVE-2014-8275)
1060 [Steve Henson]
1061
1062 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
1063 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
1064 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
1065 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
1066 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
1067 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
1068 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
1069 the OpenSSL core team.
1070 (CVE-2014-3570)
1071 [Andy Polyakov]
1072
1073 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
1074 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
1075 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
1076 sanity and breaks all known clients.
1077 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
1078
1079 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
1080 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
1081 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
1082 [Emilia Käsper]
1083
1084 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
1085 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
1086 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1087 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
1088 announced in the initial ServerHello.
1089
1090 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
1091 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1092 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
1093 [Emilia Käsper]
1094
1095 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
1096
1097 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
1098
1099 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
1100 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
1101 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
1102 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
1103 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
1104 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
1105 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
1106
1107 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
1108 (CVE-2014-3513)
1109 [OpenSSL team]
1110
1111 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
1112
1113 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
1114 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
1115 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
1116 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
1117 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
1118 attack.
1119 (CVE-2014-3567)
1120 [Steve Henson]
1121
1122 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
1123
1124 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
1125 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
1126 configured to send them.
1127 (CVE-2014-3568)
1128 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
1129
1130 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
1131 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
1132 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
1133 (CVE-2014-3566)
1134 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1135
1136 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
1137
1138 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
1139 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
1140 DigestInfo structures.
1141
1142 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
1143
1144 [Steve Henson]
1145
1146 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
1147
1148 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
1149 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
1150 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
1151
1152 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
1153 Group for discovering this issue.
1154 (CVE-2014-3512)
1155 [Steve Henson]
1156
1157 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
1158 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
1159 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
1160 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
1161 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
1162
1163 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
1164 researching this issue.
1165 (CVE-2014-3511)
1166 [David Benjamin]
1167
1168 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
1169 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
1170 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
1171 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
1172
1173 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
1174 issue.
1175 (CVE-2014-3510)
1176 [Emilia Käsper]
1177
1178 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
1179 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1180 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1181 (CVE-2014-3507)
1182 [Adam Langley]
1183
1184 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
1185 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
1186 Denial of Service attack.
1187 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1188 (CVE-2014-3506)
1189 [Adam Langley]
1190
1191 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
1192 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1193 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1194 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1195 this issue.
1196 (CVE-2014-3505)
1197 [Adam Langley]
1198
1199 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
1200 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
1201 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
1202
1203 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
1204 issue.
1205 (CVE-2014-3509)
1206 [Gabor Tyukasz]
1207
1208 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
1209 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
1210 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
1211 Denial of Service attack.
1212
1213 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
1214 discovering and researching this issue.
1215 (CVE-2014-5139)
1216 [Steve Henson]
1217
1218 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
1219 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
1220 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
1221 output to the attacker.
1222
1223 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
1224 (CVE-2014-3508)
1225 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
1226
1227 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1228 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1229 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1230 [Bodo Moeller]
1231
1232 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
1233
1234 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
1235 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
1236 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
1237
1238 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
1239 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
1240 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
1241
1242 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
1243 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
1244 in a DoS attack.
1245
1246 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
1247 (CVE-2014-0221)
1248 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
1249
1250 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
1251 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
1252 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
1253 code on a vulnerable client or server.
1254
1255 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
1256 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
1257
1258 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
1259 are subject to a denial of service attack.
1260
1261 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
1262 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
1263 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
1264
1265 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1266 compilation flags.
1267 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1268
1269 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1270 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1271 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1272
1273 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1274 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1275
1276 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
1277
1278 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1279 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1280 server.
1281
1282 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1283 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1284 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1285 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1286
1287 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1288 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1289 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1290 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1291
1292 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1293 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1294 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1295
1296 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
1297
1298 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
1299 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
1300 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
1301 is at least 512 bytes long.
1302
1303 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
1304
1305 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
1306
1307 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
1308 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
1309 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
1310 (CVE-2013-4353)
1311
1312 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
1313 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
1314 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
1315 [Steve Henson]
1316
1317 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
1318 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
1319 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
1320 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
1321 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
1322 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
1323 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
1324
1325 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
1326
1327 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
1328 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
1329 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1330
1331 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
1332
1333 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1334
1335 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1336 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1337 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1338
1339 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1340 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1341 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1342 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1343 (CVE-2013-0169)
1344 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1345
1346 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
1347 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
1348 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
1349 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
1350 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
1351 (CVE-2012-2686)
1352 [Adam Langley]
1353
1354 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1355 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1356 [Steve Henson]
1357
1358 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1359 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1360
1361 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1362 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1363 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1364 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1365 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1366
1367 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1368 [Steve Henson]
1369
1370 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
1371 if renegotiating.
1372 [Steve Henson]
1373
1374 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
1375
1376 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
1377 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
1378
1379 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1380 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1381 (CVE-2012-2333)
1382 [Steve Henson]
1383
1384 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1385 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1386 [Steve Henson]
1387
1388 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
1389 approved.
1390 [Steve Henson]
1391
1392 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
1393
1394 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1395 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
1396 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
1397 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
1398 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
1399 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
1400 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
1401 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
1402 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
1403 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
1404 [Steve Henson]
1405
1406 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
1407 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
1408 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
1409 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
1410 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
1411 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
1412 client side.
1413 [Andy Polyakov]
1414
1415 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
1416
1417 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1418 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1419 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1420
1421 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1422 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1423 (CVE-2012-2110)
1424 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1425
1426 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
1427 [Adam Langley]
1428
1429 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
1430 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
1431
1432 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
1433 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
1434 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
1435 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
1436 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
1437 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
1438 Most broken servers should now work.
1439 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
1440 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
1441 [Steve Henson]
1442
1443 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
1444 [Andy Polyakov]
1445
1446 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
1447
1448 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
1449 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
1450 [Steve Henson]
1451
1452 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1453 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1454 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1455 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1456 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1457 [Steve Henson]
1458
1459 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1460 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1461 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
1462 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1463 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1464 [Steve Henson]
1465
1466 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1467 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1468
1469 *) Add support for SCTP.
1470 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1471
1472 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1473 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1474
1475 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1476
1477 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1478 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1479 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1480 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1481 - s390x: z196 support;
1482 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1483
1484 [Andy Polyakov]
1485
1486 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1487 (removal of unnecessary code)
1488 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1489
1490 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1491 [Eric Rescorla]
1492
1493 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1494 [Eric Rescorla]
1495
1496 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1497 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1498 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1499 by Google.
1500 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1501
1502 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1503 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1504 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1505 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1506 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1507
1508 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1509 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1510 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1511
1512 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1513 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1514 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1515
1516 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1517 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1518 implementations).
1519 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1520
1521 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1522 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1523 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1524 [Steve Henson]
1525
1526 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1527 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1528 particular PSS.
1529 [Steve Henson]
1530
1531 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1532 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1533 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1534 [Steve Henson]
1535
1536 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1537 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1538 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1539 the appropriate parameters.
1540 [Steve Henson]
1541
1542 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1543 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1544 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1545 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
1546 against a number of sample certificates.
1547 [Steve Henson]
1548
1549 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
1550 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
1551
1552 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
1553 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
1554
1555 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
1556 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
1557 parameters r, s.
1558 [Steve Henson]
1559
1560 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
1561 RFC3211.
1562 [Steve Henson]
1563
1564 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
1565 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
1566 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
1567 password based CMS).
1568 [Steve Henson]
1569
1570 *) Session-handling fixes:
1571 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
1572 but also support Session Tickets.
1573 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
1574 presented a ticket with an expired session.
1575 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
1576 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
1577 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
1578 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1579
1580 *) Fix PSK session representation.
1581 [Bodo Moeller]
1582
1583 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
1584
1585 This work was sponsored by Intel.
1586 [Andy Polyakov]
1587
1588 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
1589 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
1590 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
1591 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
1592 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
1595 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
1596 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
1597 [Steve Henson]
1598
1599 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
1600 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
1601 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
1605 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
1606 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
1607 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
1608 [Steve Henson]
1609
1610 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
1611 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
1612 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
1613 [Steve Henson]
1614
1615 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
1616 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
1617
1618 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
1619 [Steve Henson]
1620
1621 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
1622 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
1623 [Steve Henson]
1624
1625 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1626 [Steve Henson]
1627
1628 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
1629 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
1630 [Steve Henson]
1631
1632 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
1633 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1637 [Steve Henson]
1638
1639 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1640 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1641 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1642 [Steve Henson]
1643
1644 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1645 [Steve Henson]
1646
1647 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1648 [Steve Henson]
1649
1650 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1651 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1652 [Steve Henson]
1653
1654 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1655 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1656 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1657 [Steve Henson]
1658
1659 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1660 [Steve Henson]
1661
1662 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1663 and enable MD5.
1664 [Steve Henson]
1665
1666 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1667 FIPS modules versions.
1668 [Steve Henson]
1669
1670 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1671 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1672 until after the certificate request message is received.
1673 [Steve Henson]
1674
1675 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1676 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1677 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1678 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1679 [Steve Henson]
1680
1681 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1682 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1683 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1684 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1685 [Steve Henson]
1686
1687 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1688 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1689 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1690 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1691 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1692 and version checking.
1693 [Steve Henson]
1694
1695 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1696 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1697 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1698 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1699 [Steve Henson]
1700
1701 *) Add SRP support.
1702 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1703
1704 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1705 [Steve Henson]
1706
1707 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1708 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1709 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1710
1711 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1712 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1713 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1717 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1718
1719 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1720 a few changes are required:
1721
1722 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1723 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1724 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1725 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1726 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1727 [Steve Henson]
1728
1729 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1730
1731 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1732 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1733 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1734 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1735 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1736 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1737 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1738 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1739 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1740 [Steve Henson]
1741
1742 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1743 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1744 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1745 [Steve Henson]
1746
1747 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1748
1749 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1750 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1751 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1752 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1753 [Antonio Martin]
1754
1755 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1756
1757 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1758 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1759 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1760 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1761 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1762 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1763 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1764 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1765 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1766 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1767 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1768 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1769 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1770
1771 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1772 (CVE-2011-4576)
1773 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1774
1775 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1776 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1777 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1778 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1779
1780 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1781 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1782
1783 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1784 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1785 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1786 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1787
1788 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1789 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1790
1791 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1792 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1793
1794 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1795 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1796
1797 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1798 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1799 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1800
1801 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1802 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1803 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1804
1805 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1806 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1807 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1808 the last update always remained unused).
1809 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1810
1811 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1812 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1813
1814 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1815
1816 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1817 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1818 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1819
1820 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1821 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1822 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1823
1824 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1825 [Bodo Moeller]
1826
1827 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1828 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1829 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1830 [Steve Henson]
1831
1832 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1833 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1834
1835 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1836
1837 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1838
1839 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1840
1841 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1842 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1843
1844 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1845 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1846 ambiguous.
1847 [Steve Henson]
1848
1849 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1850
1851 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1852 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1853 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1854 [Steve Henson]
1855
1856 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1857 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1858 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1859 [Ben Laurie]
1860
1861 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1862
1863 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1864 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1865 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1866 [Steve Henson]
1867
1868 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1869 a DLL.
1870 [Steve Henson]
1871
1872 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1873
1874 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1875 (CVE-2010-1633)
1876 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1877
1878 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1879
1880 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1881 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1882 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1883 [Steve Henson]
1884
1885 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1886 [Steve Henson]
1887
1888 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1889 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1890 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1891
1892 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1893 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1894 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1895 [Steve Henson]
1896
1897 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1898 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1899 [Steve Henson]
1900
1901 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1902 some responders need this.
1903 [Steve Henson]
1904
1905 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1906 correctly.
1907 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1908
1909 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1910 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1911 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1912 [Steve Henson]
1913
1914 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1915 [Steve Henson]
1916
1917 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1918 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1919 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1920 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1921 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1922 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1923 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1924 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1925 [Steve Henson]
1926
1927 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1928 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1929 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1930 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1931
1932 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1933 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1934
1935 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1936 be used on C++.
1937 [Steve Henson]
1938
1939 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1940 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1941 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1942 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1943 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1944 attempting to work them out.
1945 [Steve Henson]
1946
1947 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1948 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1949 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1950 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1951 [Steve Henson]
1952
1953 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1954 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1955 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1956 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1957 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1961 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1962 you can do:
1963
1964 openssl sha256 foo
1965
1966 as well as:
1967
1968 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1969
1970 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1971
1972 [Steve Henson]
1973
1974 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1975 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1976
1977 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1978 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1979
1980 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1981 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1982 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1983 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1984 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1985 [Steve Henson]
1986
1987 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1988 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1989 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1990 [Steve Henson]
1991
1992 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1993 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1994 [Steve Henson]
1995
1996 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1997 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1998
1999 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
2000 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
2004 [Ben Laurie]
2005
2006 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
2007 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
2008 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
2009 CONF_VALUE.
2010 [Ben Laurie]
2011
2012 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
2013 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
2014 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
2015 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
2016 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
2017 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
2018 [Steve Henson]
2019
2020 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
2021 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.

2023 This work was sponsored by Google.
2024 [Steve Henson]
2025
2026 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
2027 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
2028 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
2029 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
2030 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
2031 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
2032 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
2033 default.
2034
2035 This work was sponsored by Google.
2036 [Steve Henson]
2037
2038 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
2039
2040 This work was sponsored by Google.
2041 [Steve Henson]
2042
2043 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
2044 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
2045 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
2046 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
2047
2048 This work was sponsored by Google.
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
2052 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
2053 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
2054 CRL functionality in future.
2055
2056 This work was sponsored by Google.
2057 [Steve Henson]
2058
2059 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
2060
2061 This work was sponsored by Google.
2062 [Steve Henson]
2063
2064 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
2065 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
2066
2067 This work was sponsored by Google.
2068 [Steve Henson]
2069
2070 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
2071 and URI types are currently supported.
2072
2073 This work was sponsored by Google.
2074 [Steve Henson]
2075
2076 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
2077 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
2078 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
2079 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
2080 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
2081 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
2082 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
2083 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
2084
2085 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
2086 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
2087 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
2088
2089 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
2090 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
2091 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
2092 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
2093
2094 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
2095 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
2096 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
2097 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
2098 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
2099 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
2100 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
2101 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
2102 of &errno.)
2103 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
2104
2105 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
2106 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
2107 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
2108
2109 This work was sponsored by Google.
2110 [Steve Henson]
2111
2112 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
2113 [Ben Laurie]
2114
2115 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2116 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
2117 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
2118 [Ben Laurie]
2119
2120 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
2121 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
2122 [Nick Mathewson]
2123
2124 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2125 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
2126 [Ben Laurie]
2127
2128 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
2129 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
2130 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
2131 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
2132 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
2133 content types and variants.
2134 [Steve Henson]
2135
2136 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
2140 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
2141 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
2142 files from the associated perl scripts.
2143 [Steve Henson]
2144
2145 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
2146 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
2147 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2148
2149 *) s390x assembler pack.
2150 [Andy Polyakov]
2151
2152 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
2153 "family."
2154 [Andy Polyakov]
2155
2156 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
2157 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
2158 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
2159 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
2160 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
2161 to use. For example, specify an option
2162
2163 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
2164
2165 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
2166 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
2167 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
2168 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
2169 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
2170 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
2171
2172 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
2173 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
2174 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
2175 return non-zero for success.
2176
2177 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
2178 by using
2179
2180 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
2181 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2182
2183 where
2184
2185 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
2186 void *arg;
2187
2188 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
2189 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
2190 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
2191 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
2192 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2193 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2194 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2195 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2196 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2197
2198 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2199 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
2200 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
2201 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
2202 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
2203 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
2204
2205 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
2206 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
2207 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
2208 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
2209 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
2210 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
2211
2212 [Bodo Moeller]
2213
2214 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
2215 MAC.
2216
2217 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2218
2219 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2220 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2221 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2222 supported.
2223
2224 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2225 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2226 SSL_SESSION.
2227
2228 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2229 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2230 with no application modification.
2231
2232 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2233 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2234
2235 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2236 or server extensions to be examined.
2237
2238 This work was sponsored by Google.
2239 [Steve Henson]
2240
2241 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
2242 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
2243 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
2244
2245 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
2246 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
2247 ciphersuite support.
2248 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
2249
2250 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
2251 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
2252 to output in BER and PEM format.
2253 [Steve Henson]
2254
2255 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
2256 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
2257 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2258 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
2259 -macopt options to dgst utility.
2260 [Steve Henson]
2261
2262 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
2263 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
2264 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
2265 utility.
2266 [Steve Henson]
2267
2268 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
2269 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
2270 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
2271 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
2272 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
2273 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
2274 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
2275 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
2276 enabled again.
2277
2278 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
2279 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
2280 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
2281 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
2282
2283 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
2284 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
2285 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
2286 the default order.
2287 [Bodo Moeller]
2288
2289 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
2290 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
2291 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
2292 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
2293 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
2294 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
2295 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
2296 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
2297 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
2298
2299 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
2300 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
2301 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
2302 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
2303 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
2304 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
2305 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
2306 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
2307 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
2308 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
2309 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
2310 kinds of kludges.
2311
2312 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
2313 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
2314 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
2315
2316 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
2317 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
2318 "CAMELLIA256".
2319 [Bodo Moeller]
2320
2321 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
2322 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
2323 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
2324 [Nils Larsch]
2325
2326 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
2327 it yet and it is largely untested.
2328 [Steve Henson]
2329
2330 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
2331 [Nils Larsch]
2332
2333 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
2334 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
2335 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
2336 [Steve Henson]
2337
2338 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
2339 [Andy Polyakov]
2340
2341 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
2342 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
2343 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
2344 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
2345 [Steve Henson]
2346
2347 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
2348 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
2349 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
2350 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
2351 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
2352 [Steve Henson]
2353
2354 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
2355 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
2356 [Cryptocom]
2357
2358 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
2359 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
2360 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
2361 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
2362 [Steve Henson]
2363
2364 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
2365 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
2366 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
2367 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
2368 [Steve Henson]
2369
2370 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
2371 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
2372 [Steve Henson]
2373
2374 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
2375 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
2376 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
2377 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
2378 [Steve Henson]
2379
2380 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
2381 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
2382 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
2383 [Steve Henson]
2384
2385 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
2386 utility.
2387 [Steve Henson]
2388
2389 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
2390 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
2391 [Steve Henson]
2392
2393 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2394 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2395 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2396 if necessary.
2397 [Steve Henson]
2398
2399 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2400 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2401 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2402 [Steve Henson]
2403
2404 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2405 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2406 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2407 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2408 [Steve Henson]
2409
2410 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2411 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2412 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2413 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2414 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2415 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2416 [Douglas Stebila]
2417
2418 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2419 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2420 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2421 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2422 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2423
2424 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2425 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2426 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2427 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2428 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2429 protocol).
2430
2431 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2432 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2433 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2434 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2435
2436 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2437 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2438 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2439 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2440 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2441
2442 aECDH - ECDH cert
2443 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2444 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2445
2446 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2447 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2448
2449 [Bodo Moeller]
2450
2451 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2452 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2453 [Steve Henson]
2454
2455 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2456 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2457 [Steve Henson]
2458
2459 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2460 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2461 functional reference processing.
2462 [Steve Henson]
2463
2464 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2465 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2466 process.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2470 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2471 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2472 [Steve Henson]
2473
2474 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2475 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2476 application to support multiple signers.
2477 [Steve Henson]
2478
2479 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2480 digest MAC.
2481 [Steve Henson]
2482
2483 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2484 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2485 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2486 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2487 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2488 [Steve Henson]
2489
2490 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2491 new API.
2492 [Steve Henson]
2493
2494 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2495 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2496 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2497 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2498 a no op.
2499 [Steve Henson]
2500
2501 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2502 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2503 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2504 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
2505 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2506 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2507 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2508 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2509 [Steve Henson]
2510
2511 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2512 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2513 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2514 between digests and public key types.
2515 [Steve Henson]
2516
2517 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2518 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2519 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2520 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2521 [Steve Henson]
2522
2523 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2524 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2525 key ASN1 method.
2526 [Steve Henson]
2527
2528 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2529 [Steve Henson]
2530
2531 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2532 pkeyutl.
2533 [Steve Henson]
2534
2535 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2536 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2537 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2538 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2539 pkey, genpkey.
2540 [Steve Henson]
2541
2542 *) BeOS support.
2543 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2544
2545 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
2546 manual pages.
2547 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2548
2549 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
2550 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
2551 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
2552 functionality for RSA.
2553 [Steve Henson]
2554
2555 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
2556 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
2557 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
2558 [Steve Henson]
2559
2560 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
2561 key API, doesn't do much yet.
2562 [Steve Henson]
2563
2564 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
2565 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
2566 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
2567 [Steve Henson]
2568
2569 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
2570 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2571 [Douglas Stebila]
2572
2573 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
2574 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
2575 [Steve Henson]
2576
2577 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2578 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2579 type.
2580 [Steve Henson]
2581
2582 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2583 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2584 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2585 structure.
2586 [Steve Henson]
2587
2588 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2589 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2590 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2591 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2592 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2593 of public and private key structures.
2594 [Steve Henson]
2595
2596 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2597 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2598 [Douglas Stebila]
2599
2600 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2601 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2602 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2603
2604 New ciphersuites:
2605 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2606 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2607
2608 New functions:
2609 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
2610 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
2611 SSL_get_psk_identity
2612 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
2613
2614 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2615
2616 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2617 and response verification functionality.
2618 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2619
2620 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2621 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2622 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2623 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2624 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2625 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2626 server_name extension.
2627
2628 New functions (subject to change):
2629
2630 SSL_get_servername()
2631 SSL_get_servername_type()
2632 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2633
2634 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2635
2636 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2637 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2638 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2639 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2640 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2641
2642 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2643
2644 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2645 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2646 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2647 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2648 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2649 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2650 option.
2651
2652 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2653
2654 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2655 [Andy Polyakov]
2656
2657 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2658 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2659 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2660 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2661 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2662 [Andy Polyakov]
2663
2664 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2665 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2666 macro.
2667 [Bodo Moeller]
2668
2669 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2670 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2671 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2672 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2673 [Andy Polyakov]
2674
2675 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2676 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2677 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2678 using the maximum available value.
2679 [Steve Henson]
2680
2681 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2682 in addition to the text details.
2683 [Bodo Moeller]
2684
2685 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2686 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2687 handle several customised structures at all.
2688 [Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2691 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2692 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2693 [Steve Henson]
2694
2695 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2696 [Steve Henson]
2697
2698 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2699 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2700 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2701 [Steve Henson]
2702
2703 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2704 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2705 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2706 [Nils Larsch]
2707
2708 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2709 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2710 all fields.
2711 [Steve Henson]
2712
2713 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2714 [Steve Henson]
2715
2716 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2717 [NTT]
2718
2719 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2720
2721 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2722 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2723 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2724 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2725 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2726 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2727 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2728 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2729
2730 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2731 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2732 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2733
2734 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2735
2736 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2737 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2738
2739 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2740 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2741 [Bodo Moeller]
2742
2743 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2744 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2745 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2746 [Steve Henson]
2747
2748 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2749 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2750 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2751 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2752 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2753 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2754 [Steve Henson]
2755
2756 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2757 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2758 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2759 [Steve Henson]
2760
2761 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2762 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2763 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2764 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2765 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2766 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2767 CVE-2009-4355.
2768 [Steve Henson]
2769
2770 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2771 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2772 [Bodo Moeller]
2773
2774 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2775 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2776 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2777 [Steve Henson]
2778
2779 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2780 [Steve Henson]
2781
2782 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2783 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2784 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2785 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2786 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2787 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2788 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2789 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2790 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2791 [Steve Henson]
2792
2793 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2794 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2795 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2796 [Steve Henson]
2797
2798 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2799 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2800 [Steve Henson]
2801
2802 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2803 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2804 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2805 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2806 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2807 know what you are doing.
2808 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2809
2810 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2811 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2812 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2813 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2814 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2815 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2816 the handshake.
2817 [Steve Henson]
2818
2819 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2820 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2821 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2822 correctly.
2823 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2824
2825 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2826 warnings in other configurations.
2827 [Steve Henson]
2828
2829 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2830 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2831 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2832 systems need.
2833 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2834
2835 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2836 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2837 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2838
2839 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2840 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2841 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2842 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2843 [Steve Henson]
2844
2845 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2846 and restored.
2847 [Steve Henson]
2848
2849 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2850 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2851 clash.
2852 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2853
2854 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2855 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2856 other than a simple chain.
2857 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2858
2859 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2860 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2861 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2862 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2863 [Steve Henson]
2864
2865 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2866 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2867 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2868 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2869 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2870 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2871 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2872 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2873 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2874
2875 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2876 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2877 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2878 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2879 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2880 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2881 (CVE-2009-1377)
2882 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2883
2884 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2885 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2886 [Daniel Mentz]
2887
2888 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2889 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2890
2891 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2892 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2893
2894 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2895
2896 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2897 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2898 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2899 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2900 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2901 you're doing.
2902 [Ben Laurie]
2903
2904 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2905
2906 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2907 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2908 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2909 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2910
2911 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2912 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2913 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2914 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2915
2916 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2917 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2918 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2919 [Steve Henson]
2920
2921 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2922 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2923 level.
2924 [Steve Henson]
2925
2926 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2927 to handle some structures.
2928 [Steve Henson]
2929
2930 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2931 for a '\n'
2932 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2933
2934 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2935 [Matthieu Herrb]
2936
2937 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2938 [Steve Henson]
2939
2940 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2941 [Steve Henson]
2942
2943 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2944 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2945 chosen compiler.
2946 [Ben Laurie]
2947
2948 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2949
2950 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2951 (CVE-2008-5077).
2952 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2953
2954 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2955 [Ben Laurie]
2956
2957 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2958 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2959 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2960 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2961
2962 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2963 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2964
2965 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2966 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2967 [Bodo Moeller]
2968
2969 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2970 s_client and s_server.
2971 [Ben Laurie]
2972
2973 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2974 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2975
2976 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2977 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2978
2979 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2980 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2981 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2982 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2983 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2984 [Bodo Moeller]
2985
2986 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2987
2988 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2989 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2990 [PR #1679]
2991
2992 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2993 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2994 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2995
2996 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2997 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2998 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2999 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
3000
3001 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
3002 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
3003
3004 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
3005
3006 *) Various precautionary measures:
3007
3008 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
3009
3010 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
3011 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
3012 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
3013
3014 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
3015 outside the expected range.
3016
3017 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
3018 builds.
3019
3020 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
3021
3022 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
3023 the load fails. Useful for distros.
3024 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
3025
3026 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
3027 [Steve Henson]
3028
3029 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
3030 [Huang Ying]
3031
3032 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
3033
3034 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3035 [Steve Henson]
3036
3037 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
3038 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
3039 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
3040
3041 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3042 [Steve Henson]
3043
3044 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
3045 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
3046 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
3047 files.
3048 [Steve Henson]
3049
3050 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
3051
3052 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
3053 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
3054 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
3055 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
3056
3057 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
3058 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
3059 [Joe Orton]
3060
3061 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
3062
3063 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
3064 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
3065 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
3066
3067 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
3068
3069 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
3070 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
3071 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
3072 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
3073 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3074
3075 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
3076 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
3077 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
3078 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
3079 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
3080 invalid read after the end of 'db').
3081 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3082
3083 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
3084
3085 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
3086 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
3087 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
3088 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
3089 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
3090
3091 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
3092 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
3093
3094 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
3095 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
3096 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
3097 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
3098 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
3099
3100 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
3101
3102 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
3103 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
3104 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
3105 sets may exist with different names.
3106 [Steve Henson]
3107
3108 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
3109 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
3110 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
3111 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
3112 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
3113 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
3114 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
3115 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
3116 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
3117 implementation.
3118 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
3119
3120 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
3121 implemention in the following ways:
3122
3123 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
3124 hard coded.
3125
3126 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
3127 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
3128 ignored for embedded content.
3129
3130 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
3131 with the enable-cms configuration option.
3132 [Steve Henson]
3133
3134 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
3135 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
3136 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
3137 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
3138
3139 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
3140 uncompresses any data passed through it.
3141 [Steve Henson]
3142
3143 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
3144 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
3145 [Steve Henson]
3146
3147 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
3148 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
3149 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
3150 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
3151 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
3152 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
3153 data.
3154 [Steve Henson]
3155
3156 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
3157 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
3158 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3159
3160 *) Netware support:
3161
3162 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
3163 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
3164 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
3165 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
3166 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
3167 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
3168 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
3169 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
3170 platform
3171 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3172 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3173 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3174 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3175 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3176 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3177 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3178
3179 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3180 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3181 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3182 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3183 to s_client and s_server.
3184 [Steve Henson]
3185
3186 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3187
3188 *) Fix various bugs:
3189 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3190 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3191 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3192 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3193 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3194
3195 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3196
3197 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3198 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3199 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3200 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3201 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3202 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3203 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3204 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3205 [Andy Polyakov]
3206
3207 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3208 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3209 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3210 Steve Henson]
3211
3212 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3213 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3214 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3215 supported.
3216
3217 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3218 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3219 SSL_SESSION.
3220
3221 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3222 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3223 with no application modification.
3224
3225 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3226 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3227
3228 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3229 or server extensions to be examined.
3230
3231 This work was sponsored by Google.
3232 [Steve Henson]
3233
3234 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3235 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3236 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3237 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3238 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3239 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3240 server_name extension.
3241
3242 New functions (subject to change):
3243
3244 SSL_get_servername()
3245 SSL_get_servername_type()
3246 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3247
3248 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3249
3250 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3251 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3252 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3253 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3254 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3255
3256 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3257
3258 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3259 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3260 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3261 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3262 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3263 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3264 option.
3265
3266 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3267
3268 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3269 [Steve Henson]
3270
3271 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3272 [Andy Polyakov]
3273
3274 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3275 (which previously caused an internal error).
3276 [Bodo Moeller]
3277
3278 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3279 [Ben Laurie]
3280
3281 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3282 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3283
3284 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3285 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3286 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3287
3288 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3289 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3290 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3291 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3292
3293 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3294 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3295 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3296 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3297
3298 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3299 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3300 information. For detailed background information, see
3301 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3302 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3303 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3304 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3305 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3306 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3307 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3308 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3309 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3310 remove a conditional branch.
3311
3312 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3313 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3314 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3315 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3316 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3317 remains as a deprecated alias.
3318
3319 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3320 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3321 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3322 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3323
3324 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3325 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3326 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3327 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3328 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3329 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3330 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3331 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3332
3333 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3334
3335 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3336 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3337 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3338 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3339 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3340 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3341 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3342 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3343 in a different context.
3344 [Bodo Moeller]
3345
3346 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3347 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3348 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3349 [Bodo Moeller]
3350
3351 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3352 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3353 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3354
3355 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3356
3357 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3358 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3359 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3360 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3361 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3362 [Victor Duchovni]
3363
3364 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3365 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3366 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3367 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3368 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3369 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3370 [Bodo Moeller]
3371
3372 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3373 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3374 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3375 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3376 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3377 [Bodo Moeller]
3378
3379 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3380 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3381
3382 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3383 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3384 Improve header file function name parsing.
3385 [Steve Henson]
3386
3387 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3388 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3389 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3390
3391 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3392
3393 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3394 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3395 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3396
3397 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3398 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3399
3400 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3401 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3402
3403 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3404 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3405 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3406
3407 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3408 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3409 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3410 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3411 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3412 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3413 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3414 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3415 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3416
3417 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3418 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3419 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3420 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3421 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3422
3423 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3424 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3425 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3426 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3427 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3428 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3429 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3430 multiple values to extend the available space.
3431
3432 [Bodo Moeller]
3433
3434 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3435
3436 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3437 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3438
3439 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3440 [Ben Laurie]
3441
3442 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3443 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3444 undesirable limitations.
3445 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3446
3447 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3448 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3449 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3450 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3451 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3452 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3453 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3454 [Bodo Moeller]
3455
3456 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3457
3458 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3459 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3460 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3461
3462 The latter two were purportedly from
3463 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3464 appear there.
3465
3466 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3467 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3468 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3469 [Bodo Moeller]
3470
3471 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3472 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3473 [Bodo Moeller]
3474
3475 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3476 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3477 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3478 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3479
3480 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3481 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3482 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3483 [NTT]
3484
3485 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3486 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3487 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3488 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3489 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3490 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3491 [Steve Henson]
3492
3493 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3494
3495 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3496 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3497 [Steve Henson]
3498
3499 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3500 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3501
3502 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3503 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3504 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3505 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3506 [Douglas Stebila]
3507
3508 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3509 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3510 [Steve Henson]
3511
3512 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3513 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3514 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3515 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3516 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3517 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3518 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3519 can't be loaded.
3520 [Steve Henson]
3521
3522 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3523 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3524 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3525 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3526 [Steve Henson]
3527
3528 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3529 under VC++ build system.
3530 [Steve Henson]
3531
3532 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3533 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3534 [Richard Levitte]
3535
3536 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3537
3538 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3539 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3540 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3541 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3542 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3543
3544 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3545 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3546 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3547
3548 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3549 [Steve Henson]
3550
3551 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3552 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3553 [Nils Larsch]
3554
3555 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3556 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3557
3558 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3559 [Nick Mathewson]
3560
3561 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3562 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3563
3564 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3565 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3566 [Steve Henson]
3567
3568 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3569 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3570 smime utility.
3571 [Steve Henson]
3572
3573 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3574
3575 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3576 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3577
3578 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3579 [Richard Levitte]
3580
3581 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3582 key into the same file any more.
3583 [Richard Levitte]
3584
3585 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3586 [Andy Polyakov]
3587
3588 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3589 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3590
3591 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3592 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3593 [Richard Levitte]
3594
3595 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3596 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3597 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3598 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3599 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3600 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3601
3602 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3603 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3604 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3605 [Steve Henson]
3606
3607 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3608 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3609 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3610 - add new function for parameter creation
3611 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3612 BN_BLINDING parameters
3613 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3614 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3615 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3616 threads.
3617 [Nils Larsch]
3618
3619 *) Add support for DTLS.
3620 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3621
3622 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3623 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3624 [Walter Goulet]
3625
3626 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3627 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3628 [Nils Larsch]
3629
3630 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3631 the apps/openssl applications.
3632 [Nils Larsch]
3633
3634 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3635 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3636 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3637 [Ben Laurie]
3638
3639 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3640 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3641
3642 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3643 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3644
3645 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3646 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3647 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3648 avoid this algorithm.)
3649
3650 [Bodo Moeller]
3651
3652 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3653 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3654 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3655 [Richard Levitte]
3656
3657 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3658 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3659 [Andy Polyakov]
3660
3661 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3662 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3663 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3664 pod file:
3665
3666 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3667
3668 The blank line is mandatory.
3669
3670 [Steve Henson]
3671
3672 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3673 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3674 sources.
3675 [Steve Henson]
3676
3677 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3678 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3679
3680 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3681 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3682 to support policy checking and print out.
3683 [Steve Henson]
3684
3685 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3686 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3687 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3688 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3689
3690 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3691 [Geoff Thorpe]
3692
3693 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3694 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3695
3696 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3697 implementation contributed by IBM.
3698 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3699
3700 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3701 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3702 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3703 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3704
3705 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3706 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3707
3708 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3709 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3710 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3711 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3712 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3713 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3714 [Steve Henson]
3715
3716 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3717 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3718 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3719 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3720 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3721 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3722 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3723 [Geoff Thorpe]
3724
3725 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3726 [Steve Henson]
3727
3728 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3729 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3730 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3731 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3732 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3733 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3734 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3735 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3736 [Steve Henson]
3737
3738 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3739 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3740 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3741 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3742 [Steve Henson]
3743
3744 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3745 syntax:
3746
3747 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3748 [Steve Henson]
3749
3750 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3751 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3752 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3753 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3754 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3755 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3756 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3757 [Geoff Thorpe]
3758
3759 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3760 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3761 [Geoff Thorpe]
3762
3763 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3764 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3765 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3766 [Steve Henson]
3767
3768 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3769 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3770 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3771 below).
3772 [Geoff Thorpe]
3773
3774 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3775 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3776 [Richard Levitte]
3777
3778 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3779 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3780 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3781 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3782 [Geoff Thorpe]
3783
3784 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3785 initialised value as BN_new().
3786 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3787
3788 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3789 [Steve Henson]
3790
3791 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3792 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3793 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3794 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3795 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3796 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3797 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3798 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3799 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3800 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3801 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3802 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3803 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3804 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3805 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3806
3807 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3808 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3809 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3810 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3811 [Geoff Thorpe]
3812
3813 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3814 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3815 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3816 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3817 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3818 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3819 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3820 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3821 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3822 [Geoff Thorpe]
3823
3824 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3825 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3826 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3827 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3828 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3829 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3830 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3831 [Geoff Thorpe]
3832
3833 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3834 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3835 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3836 these have been updated also.
3837 [Geoff Thorpe]
3838
3839 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3840 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3841 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3842 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3843 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3844 functions.
3845 [Steve Henson]
3846
3847 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3848 structure of type "other".
3849 [Steve Henson]
3850
3851 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3852 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3853 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3854 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3855 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3856 situation in the script.
3857 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3858
3859 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3860 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3861 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3862 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3863 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3864 used as premaster secret.
3865 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3866
3867 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3868 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3869 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3870
3871 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3872 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3873
3874 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3875 control of the error stack.
3876 [Richard Levitte]
3877
3878 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3879 [Richard Levitte]
3880
3881 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3882 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3883 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3884 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3885 [Richard Levitte]
3886
3887 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3888 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3889 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3890 [Richard Levitte]
3891
3892 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3893 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3894 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3895 a memory area.
3896 [Richard Levitte]
3897
3898 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3899 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3900 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3901 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3902 [Richard Levitte]
3903
3904 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3905 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3906 the following flags are defined:
3907
3908 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3909 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3910 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3911 number.
3912
3913 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3914 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3915 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3916 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3917 returns zero.
3918 [Richard Levitte]
3919
3920 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3921 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3922 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3923 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3924 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3925 [Richard Levitte]
3926
3927 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3928 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3929 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3930 [Richard Levitte]
3931
3932 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3933 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3934 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3935 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3936 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3937 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3938 [Richard Levitte]
3939
3940 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3941 req and dirName.
3942 [Steve Henson]
3943
3944 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3945 [Steve Henson]
3946
3947 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3948 [Steve Henson]
3949
3950 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3951 [Steve Henson]
3952
3953 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3954 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3955 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3956 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3957 default implementation more easily.
3958 [Geoff Thorpe]
3959
3960 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3961 in config files.
3962 [Steve Henson]
3963
3964 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3965 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3966 [Richard Levitte]
3967
3968 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3969 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3970 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3971 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3972
3973 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3974 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3975 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3976 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3977 [Steve Henson]
3978
3979 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3980 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3981 to do it.
3982 [Richard Levitte]
3983
3984 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3985 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3986 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3987 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3988 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3989 scalar * generator).
3990 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3991
3992 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3993 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3994 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3995 correctly.
3996 [Steve Henson]
3997
3998 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3999 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
4000 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
4001 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
4002 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
4003 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
4004 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
4005 linker additions, eg;
4006 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
4007 [Geoff Thorpe]
4008
4009 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
4010 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
4011 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
4012 [Geoff Thorpe]
4013
4014 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4015 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4016 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
4017 via PR#459)
4018 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4019
4020 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
4021 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
4022 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
4023 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
4024 [Geoff Thorpe]
4025
4026 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
4027 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
4028 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
4029 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
4030 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
4031 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
4032 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
4033 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
4034 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
4035 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
4036
4037 Example for using the new callback interface:
4038
4039 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
4040 void *my_arg = ...;
4041 BN_GENCB my_cb;
4042
4043 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
4044
4045 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
4046 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
4047 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
4048 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
4049 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
4050 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
4051 */
4052
4053 [Geoff Thorpe]
4054
4055 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
4056 available to TLS with the number defined in
4057 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
4058 [Richard Levitte]
4059
4060 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
4061 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
4062
4063 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
4064 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4065 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4066 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
4067
4068 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
4069 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
4070
4071 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
4072 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
4073 well.
4074 [Richard Levitte]
4075
4076 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
4077 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
4078 [Richard Levitte]
4079
4080 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
4081 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
4082 and a macro that behave like
4083 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
4084
4085 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
4086 [Nils Larsch]
4087
4088 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
4089 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
4090 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
4091 if applicable.
4092 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4093
4094 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
4095 [Bodo Moeller]
4096
4097 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
4098 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
4099 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
4100 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
4101 directory engines/.
4102 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
4103 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
4104 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
4105 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
4106 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
4107 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
4108 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
4109 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
4110
4111 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
4112 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
4113 [Richard Levitte]
4114
4115 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
4116 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
4117
4118 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
4119 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
4120 files while avoiding the low level API.
4121
4122 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
4123 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
4124 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
4125 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
4126
4127 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
4128 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
4129 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
4130 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
4131 instead of the low level API.
4132 [Steve Henson]
4133
4134 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
4135 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
4136 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
4137 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
4138 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
4139 PKCS#7 code.
4140
4141 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
4142 down to the template encoder.
4143 [Steve Henson]
4144
4145 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
4146 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
4147 [Bodo Moeller]
4148
4149 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
4150 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
4151 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
4152 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4153
4154 *) Add ECDH engine support.
4155 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4156
4157 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
4158 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4159
4160 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
4161 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
4162 [Bodo Moeller]
4163
4164 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
4165 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
4166 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
4167 [Bodo Moeller]
4168
4169 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
4170 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
4171
4172 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4173 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4174
4175 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4176 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4177 New EC_METHOD:
4178
4179 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4180
4181 New API functions:
4182
4183 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4184 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4185 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4186 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4187 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4188 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4189
4190 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4191 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4192 enable it).
4193
4194 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4195 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4196 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4197 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4198 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4199 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4200 various internal method names.)
4201
4202 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4203 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4204
4205 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4206 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4207
4208 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4209 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4210
4211 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4212 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4213 methods are undefined.
4214
4215 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4216 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4217
4218 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4219 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4220 length of the modulus.
4221
4222 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4223 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4224
4225 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4226 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4227
4228 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4229 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4230
4231 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4232 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4233 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4234
4235 BN_GF2m_add
4236 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4237 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4238 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4239 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4240 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4241 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4242 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4243 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4244 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4245
4246 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4247 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4248
4249 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4250 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4251 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4252 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4253 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4254 where
4255 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4256 This applies to the following functions:
4257
4258 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4259 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4260 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4261 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4262 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4263 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4264 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4265 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4266 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4267 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4268
4269 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4270
4271 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4272 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4273
4274 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4275
4276 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4277 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4278 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4279 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4280 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4281
4282 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4283 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4284
4285 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4286 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4287 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4288
4289 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4290 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4291
4292 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4293 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4294 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4295 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4296 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4297
4298 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4299 functions
4300 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4301 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4302 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4303 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4304 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4305 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4306 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4307 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4308 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4309 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4310 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4311 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4312
4313 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4314 functions
4315 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4316 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4317 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4318 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4319 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4320
4321 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4322 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4323 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4324 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4325
4326 *) Add functions
4327 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4328 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4329 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4330 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4331 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4332 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4333 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4334
4335 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4336 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4337 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4338 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4339 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4340 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4341 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4342 adding different types of curves.
4343 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4344
4345 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4346 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4347 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4348 [Bodo Moeller]
4349
4350 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4351 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4352
4353 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4354 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4355 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4356 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4357
4358 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4359
4360 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4361 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4362
4363 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4364 library. Most notably,
4365 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4366 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4367 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4368 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4369 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4370 extracted before the specific public key;
4371 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4372 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4373
4374 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4375 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4376 function
4377 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4378 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4379 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4380 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4381 accessed via
4382 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4383 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4384 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4385
4386 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4387 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4388 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4389 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4390 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4391 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4392 differing sizes.
4393 [Richard Levitte]
4394
4395 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4396
4397 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4398 sensitive data.
4399 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4400
4401 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4402 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4403 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4404 [Bodo Moeller]
4405
4406 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4407 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4408 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4409 [Victor Duchovni]
4410
4411 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4412 [Steve Henson]
4413
4414 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4415 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4416 [Steve Henson]
4417
4418 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4419 run algorithm test programs.
4420 [Steve Henson]
4421
4422 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4423 [Steve Henson]
4424
4425 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4426 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4427 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4428 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4429 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4430 [Bodo Moeller]
4431
4432 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4433 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4434 [Steve Henson]
4435
4436 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4437
4438 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4439 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4440 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4441
4442 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4443 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4444
4445 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4446 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4447
4448 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4449 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4450 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4451
4452 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4453 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4454 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4455 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4456 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4457 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4458 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4459 [Bodo Moeller]
4460
4461 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4462
4463 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4464 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4465
4466 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4467 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4468 undesirable limitations.
4469 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4470
4471 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4472
4473 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4474 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4475 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4476
4477 The latter two were purportedly from
4478 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4479 appear there.
4480
4481 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4482 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4483 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4484 [Bodo Moeller]
4485
4486 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4487 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4488 [Bodo Moeller]
4489
4490 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4491
4492 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4493 module in FIPS mode.
4494 [Steve Henson]
4495
4496 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4497 [Steve Henson]
4498
4499 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4500 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4501 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4502 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4503 [Steve Henson]
4504
4505 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4506
4507 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4508 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4509 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4510 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4511 the difference induced by this change.
4512 [Andy Polyakov]
4513
4514 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4515
4516 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4517 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4518 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4519 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4520 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4521
4522 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4523 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4524 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4525
4526 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4527 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4528 [Steve Henson]
4529
4530 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4531 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4532 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4533 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4534 biased k.)
4535 [Bodo Moeller]
4536
4537 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4538 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4539 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4540 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4541 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4542
4543 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4544 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4545 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4546 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4547 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4548 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4549
4550 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4551
4552 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4553 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4554 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4555 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4556 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4557 [Bodo Moeller]
4558
4559 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4560 clients need.
4561 [Steve Henson]
4562
4563 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4564 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4565 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4566 [Steve Henson]
4567
4568 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4569 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4570 structures constant.
4571 [Steve Henson]
4572
4573 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4574
4575 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4576 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4577
4578 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4579 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4580 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4581 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4582 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4583 some needed definitions.
4584 [Steve Henson]
4585
4586 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4587 [Ulf Möller]
4588
4589 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4590 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4591 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4592 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4593 [Richard Levitte]
4594
4595 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4596
4597 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4598 server and client random values. Previously
4599 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4600 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4601
4602 This change has negligible security impact because:
4603
4604 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4605 data.
4606
4607 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4608 handshake.
4609
4610 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4611 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4612 values.
4613
4614 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4615 to our attention.
4616
4617 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4618
4619 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4620 [Ulf Möller]
4621
4622 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4623 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4624 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4625
4626 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4627 [Steve Henson]
4628
4629 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4630 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4631 [Andy Polyakov]
4632
4633 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4634 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4635 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4636
4637 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4638 [Steve Henson]
4639
4640 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4641 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4642 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4643 certificates.
4644 [Steve Henson]
4645
4646 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4647 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4648 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4649 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4650
4651 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4652 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4653 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4654 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4655 been given)
4656 [Richard Levitte]
4657
4658 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4659
4660 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4661 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4662 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4663 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4664 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4665 [Steve Henson]
4666
4667 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4668 [Steve Henson]
4669
4670 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4671 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4672
4673 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4674 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4675 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4676 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4677 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4678 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4679 rather than being initialized to 1.
4680 [Steve Henson]
4681
4682 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4683
4684 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4685 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4686 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4689 (CVE-2004-0112)
4690 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4691
4692 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4693 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4694 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4695 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4696 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4697 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4698 [Richard Levitte]
4699
4700 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4701 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4702 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4703 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4704 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4705 for these cases.
4706 [Steve Henson]
4707
4708 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4709 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4710 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4711 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4712 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4713 [Steve Henson]
4714
4715 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4716 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4717 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4718 < 0.9.7.
4719 [Steve Henson]
4720
4721 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4722 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4723
4724 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4725 [Steve Henson]
4726
4727 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4728
4729 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4730
4731 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4732 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4733
4734 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4735
4736 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4737 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4738
4739 [Steve Henson]
4740
4741 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4742 exiting on the first error in a request.
4743 [Steve Henson]
4744
4745 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4746 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4747 specifications.
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4751 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4752 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4753 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4754
4755 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4756 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4757 [Richard Levitte]
4758
4759 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4760 blocks during encryption.
4761 [Richard Levitte]
4762
4763 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4764 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4765 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4766 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4767 certain size.
4768 [Steve Henson]
4769
4770 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4771 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4772 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4773 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4774 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4775 parser.
4776 [Steve Henson]
4777
4778 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4779
4780 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4781 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4782 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4783 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4784 [Bodo Moeller]
4785
4786 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4787 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4788 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4789 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4790 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4791
4792 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4793 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4794 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4795 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4796 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4797 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4798 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4799 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4800 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4801 [Bodo Moeller]
4802
4803 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4804 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4805 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4806 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4807 [Geoff Thorpe]
4808
4809 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4810 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4811 [Ulf Moeller]
4812
4813 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4814
4815 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4816 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4817 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4818 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4819 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4820
4821 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4822 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4823 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4824
4825 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4826 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4827 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4828 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4829 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4830
4831 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4832 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4833 used by default when no-err is given.
4834 [Richard Levitte]
4835
4836 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4837 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4838
4839 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4840 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4841 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4842 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4843 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4844
4845 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4846 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4847 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4848 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4849
4850 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4851
4852 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4853
4854 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4855
4856 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4857 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4858 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4859 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4860 root is omitted).
4861 [Steve Henson]
4862
4863 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4864 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4865
4866 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4867 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4868 [Steve Henson]
4869
4870 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4871 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4872 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4873 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4874 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4875
4876 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4877 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4878 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4879 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4880 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4881 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4882 followup to PR #377.
4883 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4884
4885 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4886 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4887 [Andy Polyakov]
4888
4889 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4890 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4891 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4892 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4893
4894 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4895
4896 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4897 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4898
4899 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4900 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4901 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4902 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4903 client and server.
4904 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4905 PR #377.
4906 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4907
4908 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4909 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4910 removed entirely.
4911 [Richard Levitte]
4912
4913 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4914 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4915 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4916 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4917 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4918 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4919 of libcrypto.
4920 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4921 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4922 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4923 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4924 have to be made anyway).
4925 [Richard Levitte]
4926
4927 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4928 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4929 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4930 [Steve Henson]
4931
4932 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4933 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4934 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4935 [Richard Levitte]
4936
4937 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4938 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4939 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4940
4941 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4942 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4943 edit numbers of the version.
4944 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4945
4946 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4947 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4948 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4949
4950 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4951 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4952
4953 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4954 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4955 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4956
4957 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4958 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4959
4960 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4961 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4962
4963 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4964 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4965
4966 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4967 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4968
4969 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4970 overflows.
4971 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4972
4973 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4974 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4975 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4976
4977 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4978 representations in a platform independent manner.
4979 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4980
4981 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4982 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4983 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4984
4985 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4986 indents.
4987 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4988
4989 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4990 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4991
4992 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4993 full. Fixed.
4994 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4995
4996 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4997 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4998 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4999
5000 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
5001 unconditionally).
5002 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5003
5004 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
5005 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5006
5007 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
5008 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5009
5010 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
5011 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5012
5013 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
5014 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5015
5016 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
5017 CBCParameter.
5018 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5019
5020 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
5021 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5022
5023 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
5024 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5025
5026 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
5027 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
5028 exploitable.
5029 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5030
5031 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
5032 the 0.9.6 release series:
5033
5034 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5035 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
5036 (CVE-2002-0657)
5037 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5038
5039 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
5040 [Richard Levitte]
5041
5042 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
5043 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
5044
5045 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
5046 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
5047
5048 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
5049 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
5050 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
5051 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
5052
5053 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
5054 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
5055 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
5056
5057 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
5058 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
5059 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
5060 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5061
5062 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
5063 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
5064 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
5065 some local tweaks:
5066
5067 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
5068 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
5069 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
5070 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5071 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5072 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
5073 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
5074 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
5075 done
5076
5077 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
5078 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
5079 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
5080 [Richard Levitte]
5081
5082 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
5083 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
5084 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
5085 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
5086 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
5087
5088 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
5089 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
5090
5091 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
5092 error in AES-CFB decryption.
5093 [Richard Levitte]
5094
5095 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
5096 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
5097 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
5098 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
5099 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
5100 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
5101 [Steve Henson]
5102
5103 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
5104 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
5105 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
5106 [Steve Henson]
5107
5108 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
5109 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
5110 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5111
5112 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
5113 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
5114 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
5115 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
5116 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
5117 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
5118 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
5119 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5120
5121 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
5122 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
5123 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
5124 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
5125 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
5126 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
5127 [Steve Henson]
5128
5129 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
5130 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
5131 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
5132 declaration has been changed from
5133 int (*cb)()
5134 into
5135 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
5136 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
5137 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
5138 has been changed into
5139 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
5140
5141 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
5142 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
5143 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
5144
5145 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
5146 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
5147
5148 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
5149 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
5150 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
5151 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
5152 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
5153 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
5154 always load it have also been added.
5155 [Steve Henson]
5156
5157 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
5158 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
5159 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5160
5161 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
5162
5163 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
5164 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
5165 because it couldn't be used for anything.
5166
5167 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
5168 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
5169 command line option can be used to specify an
5170 alternative file.
5171 [Steve Henson]
5172
5173 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5174 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5175 [Steve Henson]
5176
5177 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5178 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5179 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5180 [Steve Henson]
5181
5182 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5183 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5184 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5185 to work with the new engine framework.
5186 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5187
5188 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5189 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5190 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5191 to work with the new engine framework.
5192 [Richard Levitte]
5193
5194 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5195 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5196 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5197
5198 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5199 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5200
5201 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5202 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5203 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5204 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5205 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5206 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5207
5208 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5209 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5210
5211 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5212 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5213
5214 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5215 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5216 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5217 [Ben Laurie]
5218
5219 *) Add new functions
5220 ERR_peek_last_error
5221 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5222 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5223 These are similar to
5224 ERR_peek_error
5225 ERR_peek_error_line
5226 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5227 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5228 still in the error queue.
5229 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5230
5231 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5232 like:
5233 default_algorithms = ALL
5234 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5235 [Steve Henson]
5236
5237 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
5238 [Steve Henson]
5239
5240 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5241 [Steve Henson]
5242
5243 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5244 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5245 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5246 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5247
5248 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5249 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5250
5251 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5252 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5253
5254 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5255 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5256 [Bodo Moeller]
5257
5258 *) New functions/macros
5259
5260 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5261 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5262 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5263 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5264
5265 to request calling a callback function
5266
5267 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5268 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5269
5270 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5271 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5272 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5273 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5274 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5275 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5276 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5277 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5278 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5279 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5280
5281 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5282 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5283 [Bodo Moeller]
5284
5285 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5286 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5287 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5288 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5289 the configuration scripts.
5290
5291 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5292 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5293 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5294
5295 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5296 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5297
5298 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5299 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5300 when reusing an existing buffer.
5301 [Bodo Moeller]
5302
5303 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5304 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5305 [Steve Henson]
5306
5307 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5308 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5309 [Ben Laurie]
5310
5311 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5312 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5313 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5314 has the same effect.
5315 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5316
5317 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5318 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5319 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5320 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5321 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5322 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5323 exception.
5324
5325 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5326 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5327 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5328 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5329
5330 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5331 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5332 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5333 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5334
5335 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5336 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5337 won't work.
5338
5339 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5340 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5341 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5342 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5343 default), and then completely removed.
5344 [Richard Levitte]
5345
5346 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5347 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5348 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5349 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5350 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5351 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5352 particular extension is supported.
5353 [Steve Henson]
5354
5355 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5356 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5357 [Steve Henson]
5358
5359 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5360 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5361 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5362 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5363 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5364 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5365 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5366 requires the destination to be valid.
5367
5368 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5369 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5370 [Steve Henson]
5371
5372 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5373 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5374 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5375 [Bodo Moeller]
5376
5377 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5378 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5379
5380 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5381 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5382 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5383 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5384 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5385 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5386 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5387 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5388 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5389 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5390 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5391 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5392 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5393 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5394 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5395 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5396 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5397 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5398 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5399 the new code.
5400 [Geoff Thorpe]
5401
5402 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5403 [Steve Henson]
5404
5405 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5406 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5407 become part of libeay.num as well.
5408 [Richard Levitte]
5409
5410 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5411 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5412 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5413 false once a handshake has been completed.
5414 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5415 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5416 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5417 client has followed the request.)
5418 [Bodo Moeller]
5419
5420 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5421 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5422 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5423 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5424
5425 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5426 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5427 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5428 [Bodo Moeller]
5429
5430 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5431 [Steve Henson]
5432
5433 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5434 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5435 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5436 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5437
5438 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5439 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5440 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5441
5442 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5443 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5444 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5445 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5446 [Geoff Thorpe]
5447
5448 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5449 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5450 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5451 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5452 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5453 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5454 [Geoff Thorpe]
5455
5456 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5457 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5458 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5459 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5460 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5461 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5462 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5463 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5464 [Geoff Thorpe]
5465
5466 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5467 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5468 [Geoff Thorpe]
5469
5470 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5471 [Ben Laurie]
5472
5473 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5474 md_data void pointer.
5475 [Ben Laurie]
5476
5477 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5478 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5479 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5480 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5481 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5482 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5483 [Ben Laurie]
5484
5485 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5486 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5487 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5488 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5489 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5490 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5491 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5492 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5493 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5494 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5495 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5496 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5497 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5498 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5499 rather than letting it slide.
5500
5501 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5502 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5503 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5504 [Geoff Thorpe]
5505
5506 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5507 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5508 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5509 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5510 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5511 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5512 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5513 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5514 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5515 [Geoff Thorpe]
5516
5517 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5518 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5519 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5520 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5521 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5522
5523 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5524 [Geoff Thorpe]
5525
5526 *) Add EVP test program.
5527 [Ben Laurie]
5528
5529 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5530 [Ben Laurie]
5531
5532 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5533 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5534 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5535 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5536 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5537 [Steve Henson]
5538
5539 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5540 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5541 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5542 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5543 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5544 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5545 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5546
5547 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5548 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5549 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5550 Usage example:
5551
5552 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5553
5554 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5555 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5556 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5557 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5558 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5559
5560 [Ben Laurie]
5561
5562 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5563 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5564 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5565 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5566 anyway): E.g.,
5567
5568 des_key_schedule ks;
5569
5570 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5571 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5572
5573 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5574 [Ben Laurie]
5575
5576 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5577 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5578 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5579 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5580 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5581 functions prevents this.
5582 [Steve Henson]
5583
5584 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5585 [Ben Laurie]
5586
5587 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5588 correct _ecb suffix.
5589 [Ben Laurie]
5590
5591 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5592 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5593 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5594 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5595 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5596 [Steve Henson]
5597
5598 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5599 [Richard Levitte]
5600
5601 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5602 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5603 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5604 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5605
5606 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5607 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5608
5609 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5610 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5611 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5612 via Richard Levitte]
5613
5614 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5615 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5616 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5617 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5618 [Geoff Thorpe]
5619
5620 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5621 Before:
5622 encrypt
5623 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes

5636 [Ben Laurie]
5637
5638 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5639 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5640
5641 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5642 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5643 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5644 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5645 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5646 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5647 [Steve Henson]
5648
5649 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5650 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5651 [Richard Levitte]
5652
5653 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5654 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5655 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5656 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5657
5658 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5659 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5660 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5661 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5662 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5663 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5664 callback.
5665 [Richard Levitte]
5666
5667 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5668 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5669 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5670 and interrupts/cancellations.
5671 [Richard Levitte]
5672
5673 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5674 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5675 [Steve Henson]
5676
5677 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5678 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5679 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5680
5681 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5682 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5683 kind of callback.
5684 [Richard Levitte]
5685
5686 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5687 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5688 than this minimum value is recommended.
5689 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5690
5691 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5692 that are easily reachable.
5693 [Richard Levitte]
5694
5695 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5696 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5697
5698 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5699
5700 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5701 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5702 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5703 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5704 [Steve Henson]
5705
5706 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5707 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5708 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5709 [Steve Henson]
5710
5711 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5712 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5713 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5714 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5715 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5716 internally such as S/MIME.
5717
5718 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5719 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5720 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5721
5722 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5723 applications.
5724 [Steve Henson]
5725
5726 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5727 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5728 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5729 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5730
5731 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5732
5733 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5734
5735 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5736 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5737 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5738 handling.
5739 [Steve Henson]
5740
5741 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5742 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5743 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5744 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5745 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5746 a window system and the like.
5747 [Richard Levitte]
5748
5749 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5750 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5751 [Geoff]
5752
5753 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5754 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5755 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5756 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5757 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5758 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5759 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5760 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5761 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5762 ENGINE structure.
5763 [Geoff]
5764
5765 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5766 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5767 tag cache.
5768 [Steve Henson]
5769
5770 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5771 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5772 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5773 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5774 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5775 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5776 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5777 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5778 [Geoff]
5779
5780 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5781 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5782 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5783 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5784 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5785 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5786 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5787 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5788 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5789 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5790 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5791 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5792 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5793 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5794 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5795 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5796 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5797 [Geoff]
5798
5799 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5800 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5801 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5802 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5803 internal engine_int.h header.
5804 [Geoff]
5805
5806 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5807 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5808 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5809 modify their own ones).
5810 [Geoff]
5811
5812 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5813 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5814 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5815 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5816 later on via ctrl() commands.
5817 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5818 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5819 structural references.
5820 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5821 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5822 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5823 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5824 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5825 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5826 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5827 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5828 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5829 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5830 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5831 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5832 [Geoff]
5833
5834 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5835 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5836 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5837 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5838 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5839 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5840 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5841 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5842 [Bodo Moeller]
5843
5844 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5845 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5846 [Steve Henson]
5847
5848 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5849 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5850 [Steve Henson]
5851
5852 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5853 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5854 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5855 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5856 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5857 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5858 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5859 [Steve Henson]
5860
5861 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5862 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5863 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5864 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5865 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5866
5867 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5868 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5869 generator).
5870 [Bodo Moeller]
5871
5872 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5873
5874 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5875 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5876 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5877
5878 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5879 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5880
5881 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5882 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5883 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5884
5885 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5886 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5887
5888 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5889 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5890
5891 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5892
5893 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5894 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5895 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5896 [Bodo Moeller]
5897
5898 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5899 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5900 [Richard Levitte]
5901
5902 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5903 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5904 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5905 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5906 is 40 of more characters long.
5907 [Steve Henson]
5908
5909 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5910 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5911 pointers.
5912 [Steve Henson]
5913
5914 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5915 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5916 [Bodo Moeller]
5917
5918 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5919 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5920 might.
5921 [Steve Henson]
5922
5923 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5924
5925 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5926 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5927
5928 ASN1 error codes
5929 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5930 ...
5931 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5932 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5933 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5934 ...
5935 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5936 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5937
5938 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5939 [Bodo Moeller]
5940
5941 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5942 suffices.
5943 [Bodo Moeller]
5944
5945 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5946 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5947 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5948 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5949 and
5950 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5951
5952 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5953 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5954
5955 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5956 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5957 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5958 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5959 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5960 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5961
5962 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5963 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5964
5965 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5966 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5967
5968 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5969 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5970
5971 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5972 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5973 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5974 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5975
5976 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5977 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5978
5979 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5980 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5981
5982 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5983 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5984 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5985 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5986 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5987 [Richard Levitte]
5988
5989 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5990 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5991 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5992 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5993 [Steve Henson]
5994
5995 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5996 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5997 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5998 trust settings.
5999 [Steve Henson]
6000
6001 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
6002 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
6003 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
6004 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
6005 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
6006 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
6007 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
6008 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
6009 ocsp utility.
6010 [Steve Henson]
6011
6012 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
6013 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
6014 [Steve Henson]
6015
6016 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
6017 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
6018 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
6019 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
6020 [Steve Henson]
6021
6022 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
6023 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
6024 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
6025 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
6026 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
6027 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
6028 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
6029 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
6030 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
6031 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
6032 [Steve Henson]
6033
6034 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
6035 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
6036 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
6037 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
6038 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
6039 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
6040 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
6041 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6042
6043 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
6044 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
6045 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
6046 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
6047 [Richard Levitte]
6048
6049 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
6050 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
6051 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
6052 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
6053 opensslconf.h.
6054 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
6055 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
6056 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
6057 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
6058 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
6059 what is available.
6060 [Richard Levitte]
6061
6062 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
6063 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
6064 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
6065 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
6066 auto incremented.
6067 [Steve Henson]
6068
6069 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
6070 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
6071 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
6072 [Steve Henson]
6073
6074 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
6075 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
6076 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
6077 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
6078 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
6079 [Steve Henson]
6080
6081 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
6082 [Steve Henson]
6083
6084 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
6085 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
6086 option to ocsp utility.
6087 [Steve Henson]
6088
6089 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
6090 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
6091 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
6092 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
6093 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
6094 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
6095 the request is nonce-less.
6096 [Steve Henson]
6097
6098 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
6099 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
6100 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
6101 [Bodo Moeller]
6102
6103 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
6104 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
6105 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
6106 [Steve Henson]
6107
6108 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
6109 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
6110 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
6111 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
6112 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
6113 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6114
6115 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
6116 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
6117 appear to exist.
6118 [Steve Henson]
6119
6120 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
6121 additional certificates supplied.
6122 [Steve Henson]
6123
6124 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
6125 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
6126 signature against.
6127 [Richard Levitte]
6128
6129 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
6130 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
6131 AES OIDs.
6132
6133 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
6134 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
6135 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
6136 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
6137 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
6138 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
6139 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
6140 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
6141 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6142
6143 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
6144 request to response.
6145 [Steve Henson]
6146
6147 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
6148 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
6149 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
6150 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
6151 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
6152 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
6153 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
6154 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
6155 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
6156 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
6157 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
6158 [Steve Henson]
6159
6160 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
6161 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
6162 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
6163 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
6164 [Steve Henson]
6165
6166 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
6167 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6168
6169 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
6170 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
6171 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6172 [Steve Henson]
6173
6174 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6175 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6176 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6177 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6178 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6179
6180 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6181 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6182 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6183 [Steve Henson]
6184
6185 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6186 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6187 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6188 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6189 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6190 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6191 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6192 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6193
6194 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6195 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6196 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6197 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6198 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6199 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6200 [Steve Henson]
6201
6202 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6203 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6204 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6205 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6206 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6207 printout format cleaned up.
6208 [Steve Henson]
6209
6210 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6211 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6212 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6213 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6214 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6215 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6216 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6217 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6218 [Steve Henson]
6219
6220 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6221 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6222 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6223 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6224 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6225 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6226 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6227 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6228 [Steve Henson]
6229
6230 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6231 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6232 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6233 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6234 section to use.
6235 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6236
6237 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6238 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6239 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6240 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6241 [Steve Henson]
6242
6243 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6244 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6245 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6246 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6247 in the index file.
6248 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6249
6250 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6251 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6252 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6253 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6254
6255 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6256 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6257
6258 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6259 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6260 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6261 [Steve Henson]
6262
6263 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6264 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6265 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6266 [Bodo Moeller]
6267
6268 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6269 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6270 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6271 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6272 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6273 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6274 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6275 functions are provided:
6276
6277 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6278 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6279 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6280 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6281
6282 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6283 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6284 extended allocation function is enabled.
6285 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6286 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6287 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6288
6289 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6290 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6291 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6292 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6293 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6294 [Geoff Thorpe]
6295
6296 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6297 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6298 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6299 be queried.
6300 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6301 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6302 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6303 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6304
6305 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6306 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6307 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6308 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6309 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6310 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6311 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6312 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6313 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6314 [Richard Levitte]
6315
6316 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6317 provide utility functions which an application needing
6318 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6319 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6320 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6321
6322 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6323 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6324 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6325 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6326 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6327 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6328 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6329 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6330 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6331
6332 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6333 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6334 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6335 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6336 [Steve Henson]
6337
6338 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6339 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6340 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6341 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6342 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6343 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6344 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6345 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6346 will be added elsewhere.
6347 [Steve Henson]
6348
6349 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6350 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6351 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6352 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6353 [Steve Henson]
6354
6355 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6356 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6357 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6358 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6359 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6360 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6361 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6362 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6363 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6364 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6365 to produce the required SET OF.
6366 [Steve Henson]
6367
6368 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6369 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6370 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6371 [Richard Levitte]
6372
6373 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6374 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6375 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6376 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6377 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6378 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6379 [Steve Henson]
6380
6381 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6382 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6383 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6384 [Steve Henson]
6385
6386 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6387 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6388 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6389 [Richard Levitte]
6390
6391 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6392 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6393 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6394 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6395 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6396 [Steve Henson]
6397
6398 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6399 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6400 [Steve Henson]
6401
6402 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6403 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6404 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6405 certifcates and CRLs.
6406 [Steve Henson]
6407
6408 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6409 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6410 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6411 [Steve Henson]
6412
6413 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6414 entries for variables.
6415 [Steve Henson]
6416
6417 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6418 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6419 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6420 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6421 [Bodo Moeller]
6422
6423 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6424 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6425 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6426 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6427 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6428 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6429 [Bodo Moeller]
6430
6431 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6432 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6433
6434 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6435 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6436 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6437 [Steve Henson]
6438
6439 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6440 print routines.
6441 [Steve Henson]
6442
6443 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6444 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6445 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6446 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6447 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6448 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6449 [Steve Henson]
6450
6451 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6452 [Steve Henson]
6453
6454 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6455 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6456 for now but they will eventually go away.
6457 [Steve Henson]
6458
6459 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6460 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6461 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6462 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6463 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6464 has also been converted to the new form.
6465 [Steve Henson]
6466
6467 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6468 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6469 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6470 for negative moduli.
6471 [Bodo Moeller]
6472
6473 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6474 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6475 [Bodo Moeller]
6476
6477 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6478 set.
6479 [Bodo Moeller]
6480
6481 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6482 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6483 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6484 type-specific callbacks.
6485 [Geoff Thorpe]
6486
6487 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6488 RFC 2712.
6489 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6490 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6491
6492 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6493 in sections depending on the subject.
6494 [Richard Levitte]
6495
6496 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6497 Windows.
6498 [Richard Levitte]
6499
6500 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6501 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6502 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6503 be handled deterministically).
6504 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6505
6506 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6507 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6508 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6509 [Bodo Moeller]
6510
6511 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6512 [Bodo Moeller]
6513
6514 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6515 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6516 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6517 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6518 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6519 [Bodo Moeller]
6520
6521 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6522 sign of the number in question.
6523
6524 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6525
6526 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6527 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6528 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6529 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6530 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6531 [Bodo Moeller]
6532
6533 *) New function BN_swap.
6534 [Bodo Moeller]
6535
6536 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6537 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6538 results on negative inputs.
6539 [Bodo Moeller]
6540
6541 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6542 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6543 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6544 [Bodo Moeller]
6545
6546 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6547 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6548 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6549 and add new functions:
6550
6551 BN_nnmod
6552 BN_mod_sqr
6553 BN_mod_add
6554 BN_mod_add_quick
6555 BN_mod_sub
6556 BN_mod_sub_quick
6557 BN_mod_lshift1
6558 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6559 BN_mod_lshift
6560 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6561
6562 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6563
6564 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6565 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6566
6567 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6568 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6569 be reduced modulo m.
6570 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6571
6572 #if 0
6573 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6574 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6575 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6576
6577 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6578 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6579 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6580 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6581 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6582 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6583 differing sizes.
6584 [Richard Levitte]
6585 #endif
6586
6587 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6588 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6589 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6590 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6591 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6592
6593 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6594 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6595 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6596 cause any problems.
6597 [Bodo Moeller]
6598
6599 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6600 [Richard Levitte]
6601
6602 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6603 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6604 [Richard Levitte]
6605
6606 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6607 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6608 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6609 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6610 time)
6611 [Richard Levitte]
6612
6613 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6614 [Richard Levitte]
6615
6616 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6617 [Richard Levitte]
6618
6619 *) Add the following functions:
6620
6621 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6622 ENGINE_load_chil()
6623 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6624 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6625 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6626
6627 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6628 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6629 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6630 libraries unless it's really needed.
6631
6632 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6633 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6634 declarations (they differed!).
6635 [Richard Levitte]
6636
6637 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6638 [Richard Levitte]
6639
6640 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6641 [Richard Levitte]
6642
6643 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6644 [Bodo Moeller]
6645
6646 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6647 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6648 [Richard Levitte]
6649
6650 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6651 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6652 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6653
6654 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6655 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6656 [Richard Levitte]
6657
6658 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6659 [Richard Levitte]
6660
6661 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6662 [Richard Levitte]
6663
6664 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6665 [Ben Laurie]
6666
6667 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6668 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6669 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6670
6671 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6672 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6673 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6674 different shared library filenames on each system.
6675 [Geoff Thorpe]
6676
6677 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6678 [Richard Levitte]
6679
6680 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6681 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6682 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6683 of two sections.
6684 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6685
6686 *) NCONF changes.
6687 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6688 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6689 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6690 binary backward compatibility.
6691 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6692 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6693 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6694 LDAP server.
6695 [Richard Levitte]
6696
6697 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6698 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6699 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6700 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6701 this case.
6702 [Steve Henson]
6703
6704 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6705 [Ben Laurie]
6706
6707 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6708 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6709 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6710 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6711 set.
6712 [Steve Henson]
6713
6714 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6715 [Richard Levitte]
6716
6717 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6718
6719 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6720 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6721 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6722
6723 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6724
6725 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6726
6727 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6728 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6729 [Steve Henson]
6730
6731 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6732
6733 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6734
6735 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6736 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6737
6738 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6739 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6740
6741 [Steve Henson]
6742
6743 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6744 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6745 specifications.
6746 [Steve Henson]
6747
6748 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6749 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6750 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6751 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6752
6753 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6754 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6755 [Richard Levitte]
6756
6757 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6758
6759 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6760 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6761 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6762 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6763 [Bodo Moeller]
6764
6765 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6766 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6767 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6768 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6769 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6770
6771 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6772 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6773 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6774 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6775 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6776 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6777 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6778 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6779 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6780 [Bodo Moeller]
6781
6782 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6783
6784 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6785 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6786 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6787 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6788 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6789
6790 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6791 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6792 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6793
6794 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6795
6796 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6797 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6798 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6799 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6800 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6801 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6802 [Geoff Thorpe]
6803
6804 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6805 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6806 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6807 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6808 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6809 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6810
6811 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6812 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6813 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6814
6815 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6816 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6817 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6818 EVP_cleanup().
6819 [Richard Levitte]
6820
6821 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6822 being properly terminated.
6823 [Richard Levitte]
6824
6825 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6826 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6827 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6828 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6829
6830 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6831 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6832 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6833 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6834 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6835 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6836 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6837 change.
6838 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6839
6840 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6841 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6842 [Bodo Moeller]
6843
6844 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6845 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6846 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6847 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6848 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6849 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6850 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6851 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6852
6853 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6854 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6855 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6856 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6857 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6858
6859 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6860 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6861 [Steve Henson]
6862
6863 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6864
6865 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6866 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6867 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6868
6869 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6870
6871 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6872 and get fix the header length calculation.
6873 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6874 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6875 Steve Henson]
6876
6877 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6878 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6879 assertions could call abort()).
6880 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6881
6882 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6883
6884 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6885 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6886 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6887 supplied buffer.
6888 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6889
6890 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6891 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6892 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6893 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6894
6895 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6896 [Nils Larsch]
6897
6898 *) New option
6899 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6900 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6901 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6902
6903 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6904 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6905 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6906 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6907 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6908 applications.
6909 [Bodo Moeller]
6910
6911 *) Changes in security patch:
6912
6913 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6914 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6915 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6916 F30602-01-2-0537.
6917
6918 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6919 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6920 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6921 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6922 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6923
6924 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6925 happen in practice.
6926 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6927
6928 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6929 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6930 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6931
6932 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6933 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6934 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6935
6936 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6937 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6938 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6939
6940 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6941
6942 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6943 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6944 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6945
6946 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6947 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6948
6949 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6950 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6951 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6952 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6953 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6954 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6955 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6956
6957 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6958 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6959 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6960 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6961 [Bodo Moeller]
6962
6963 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6964 [Bodo Moeller]
6965
6966 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6967 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6968 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6969 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6970 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6971 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6972
6973 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6974 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6975 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6976 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6977 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6978 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6979
6980 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6981 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6982 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6983 BN_generate_prime().)
6984
6985 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6986 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6987 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6988 better.
6989 [Bodo Moeller]
6990
6991 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6992 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6993 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6994
6995 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6996 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6997 when using non-blocking I/O.
6998 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6999
7000 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
7001 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
7002
7003 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
7004 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
7005 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7006
7007 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
7008 configuration for the versions before that.
7009 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7010
7011 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
7012 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
7013 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
7014 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
7015 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7016
7017 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
7018 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
7019 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
7020 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7021
7022 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
7023 value is 0.
7024 [Richard Levitte]
7025
7026 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
7027 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7028 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7029
7030 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
7031 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
7032
7033 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
7034 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
7035 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
7036 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
7037 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
7038 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
7039 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
7040 session cache.
7041
7042 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
7043 using a local variable.
7044 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7045
7046 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
7047 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
7048 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7049
7050 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
7051 [Richard Levitte]
7052
7053 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
7054 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
7055
7056 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
7057 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
7058 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
7059
7060 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
7061
7062 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
7063 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
7064 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
7065 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
7066 [Bodo Moeller]
7067
7068 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
7069 present.
7070 [Steve Henson]
7071
7072 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
7073 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
7074 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
7075 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
7076 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
7077
7078 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
7079 returns early because it has nothing to do.
7080 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7081
7082 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7083 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
7084 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7085
7086 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7087 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
7088 (Use engine 'keyclient')
7089 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
7090
7091 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
7092 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
7093 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
7094 modules).
7095 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
7096
7097 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7098 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
7099 from 0.9.7.
7100 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
7101
7102 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7103 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
7104 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7105 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
7106
7107 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7108 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
7109 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7110 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
7111
7112 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
7113 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
7114
7115 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
7116 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
7117 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
7118 [Bodo Moeller]
7119
7120 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
7121 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
7122 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
7123 become invalid.
7124 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
7125
7126 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
7127 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
7128 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
7129 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
7130 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
7131 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
7132 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
7133 [Bodo Moeller]
7134
7135 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
7136 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
7137 one of the SSL handshake functions.
7138 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
7139
7140 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
7141 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
7142 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
7143 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
7144 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
7145 the client will at least see that alert.
7146 [Bodo Moeller]
7147
7148 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
7149 correctly.
7150 [Bodo Moeller]
7151
7152 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
7153 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
7154 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7155
7156 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
7157 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
7158 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
7159 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
7160 HelloRequest.
7161
7162 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
7163 before just sending a HelloRequest.
7164 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
7165
7166 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
7167 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
7168 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
7169 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
7170 may leak via logfiles.)
7171
7172 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7173 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7174 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7175 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7176 the legal range.
7177 [Bodo Moeller]
7178
7179 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7180 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7181 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7182
7183 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7184 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7185 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7186 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7187 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7188 [Bodo Moeller]
7189
7190 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7191 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7192
7193 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7194 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7195 followed by modular reduction.
7196 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7197
7198 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7199 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7200 [Bodo Moeller]
7201
7202 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7203 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7204 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7205 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7206 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7207
7208 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7209 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7210
7211 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7212 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7213 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7214
7215 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7216 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7217 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7218 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7219 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7220 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7221 automatically.
7222 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7223
7224 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7225 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7226 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7227 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7228 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7229
7230 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7231 [Andy Polyakov]
7232
7233 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7234 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7235 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7236 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7237 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7238 to allow the necessary settings.
7239 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7240
7241 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7242 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7243 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7244 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7245 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7246
7247 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7248 dh->length and always used
7249
7250 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7251
7252 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7253 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7254 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7255 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7256 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7257 dh->length.
7258
7259 So switch back to
7260
7261 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7262
7263 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7264 otherwise.
7265 [Bodo Moeller]
7266
7267 *) In
7268
7269 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7270 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7271 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7272 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7273
7274 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7275 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7276 always reject numbers >= n.
7277 [Bodo Moeller]
7278
7279 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7280 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7281 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7282 variable) is not atomic.
7283 [Bodo Moeller]
7284
7285 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7286 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7287 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7288 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7289
7290 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7291 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7292
7293 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7294 little-endian MIPS.
7295 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7296
7297 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7298 [Richard Levitte]
7299
7300 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7301
7302 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7303 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7304 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7305 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7306 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7307 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7308 to traverse all of 'state'.
7309
7310 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7311 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7312 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7313
7314 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7315 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7316
7317 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7318 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7319 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7320 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7321 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7322 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7323 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7324 further strengthens the PRNG.
7325 [Bodo Moeller]
7326
7327 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7328 [Andy Polyakov]
7329
7330 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7331 an error message in this case.
7332 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7333
7334 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7335 [Steve Henson]
7336
7337 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7338 positive and less than q.
7339 [Bodo Moeller]
7340
7341 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7342 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7343 that itself.
7344 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7345
7346 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7347 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7348 [Bodo Moeller]
7349
7350 *) Fix OAEP check.
7351 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7352
7353 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7354 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7355 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7356 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7357 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7358 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7359 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7360 paper.)
7361
7362 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7363 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7364 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7365 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7366
7367 Both problems are now fixed.
7368 [Bodo Moeller]
7369
7370 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7371 (previously it was 1024).
7372 [Bodo Moeller]
7373
7374 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7375 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7376 [Steve Henson]
7377
7378 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7379 [Steve Henson]
7380
7381 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7382 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7383 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7384 [Steve Henson]
7385
7386 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7387 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7388 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7389 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7390 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7391 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7392 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7393 environment variables.
7394
7395 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7396 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7397 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7398 [Bodo Moeller]
7399
7400 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7401 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7402 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7403 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7404 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7405 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7406 [Bodo Moeller]
7407
7408 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7409 versions of 'test'.
7410 [Bodo Moeller]
7411
7412 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7413
7414 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7415 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7416
7417 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7418 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7419 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7420 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7421 CygWin.
7422 [Richard Levitte]
7423
7424 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7425 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7426 amount of data available.
7427 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7428 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7429
7430 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7431 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7432 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7433 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7434 [Bodo Moeller]
7435
7436 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7437 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7438 and UnixWare.
7439 [Richard Levitte]
7440
7441 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7442 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7443 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7444 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7445 [Ulf Moeller]
7446
7447 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7448 [Andy Polyakov]
7449
7450 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7451 [Richard Levitte]
7452
7453 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7454 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7455 [Steve Henson]
7456 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7457
7458 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7459 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7460 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7461 (but broken) behaviour.
7462 [Steve Henson]
7463
7464 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7465 it when found.
7466 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7467
7468 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7469 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7470 [Bodo Moeller]
7471
7472 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7473 did not exist.
7474 [Bodo Moeller]
7475
7476 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7477 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7478
7479 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7480 [Richard Levitte]
7481
7482 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7483 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7484 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7485
7486 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7487 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7488 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7489 [Steve Henson]
7490
7491 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7492 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7493 [Ulf Moeller]
7494
7495 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7496 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7497
7498 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7499
7500 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7501
7502 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7503 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7504 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7505 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7506 [Bodo Moeller]
7507
7508 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7509 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7510
7511 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7512 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7513 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7514
7515 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7516 was empty.
7517 [Steve Henson]
7518 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7519
7520 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7521 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7522 but the code is actually correct.
7523 [Steve Henson]
7524
7525 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7526 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7527 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7528 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7529 and leaves the highest bit random.
7530 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7531
7532 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7533 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7534 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7535 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7536 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7537 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7538 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7539 [Bodo Moeller]
7540
7541 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7542 [Ulf Moeller]
7543
7544 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7545 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7546 [Steve Henson]
7547
7548 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7549 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7550 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7551 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7552 headers.
7553 [Richard Levitte]
7554
7555 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7556 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7557 and break the signature.
7558 [Steve Henson]
7559 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7560
7561 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7562 DH ciphersuites.
7563 [Steve Henson]
7564
7565 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7566 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7567 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7568 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7569 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7570 [Bodo Moeller]
7571
7572 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7573 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7574
7575 *) ./config script fixes.
7576 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7577
7578 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7579 [Bodo Moeller]
7580
7581 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7582 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7583 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7584 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7585 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7586
7587 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7588 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7589 [Bodo Moeller]
7590
7591 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7592 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7593 [Steve Henson]
7594
7595 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7596 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7597 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7598 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7599
7600 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7601 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7602
7603 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7604 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7605 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7606 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7607 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7608
7609 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7610 [Bodo Moeller]
7611
7612 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7613 [Ulf Möller]
7614
7615 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7616 [Ulf Möller]
7617
7618 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7619 [Bodo Moeller]
7620
7621 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7622 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7623 [Bodo Moeller]
7624
7625 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7626 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7627 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7628 result of the server certificate verification.)
7629 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7630
7631 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7632 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7633 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7634 [Bodo Moeller]
7635
7636 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7637 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7638 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7639 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7640 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7641 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7642 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7643 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7644 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7645 [Bodo Moeller]
7646
7647 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7648 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7649 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7650 happening the other way round.
7651 [Geoff Thorpe]
7652
7653 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7654 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7655 [Bodo Moeller]
7656
7657 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7658 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7659 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7660 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7661 [Richard Levitte]
7662
7663 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7664 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7665
7666 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7667
7668 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7669 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7670 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7671 that.
7672
7673 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7674
7675 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7676
7677 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7678 static ones.
7679 [Richard Levitte]
7680
7681 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7682
7683 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7684 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7685 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7686 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7687 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7688
7689 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7690 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7691 matter what.
7692 [Richard Levitte]
7693
7694 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7695 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7696
7697 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7698
7699 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7700 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7701 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7702 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7703 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7704 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7705 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7706 by the Finished messages.
7707 [Bodo Moeller]
7708
7709 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7710 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7711
7712 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7713 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7714 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7715 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7716 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7717 appropriately.
7718 [Steve Henson]
7719
7720 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7721 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7722 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7723 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7724 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7725 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7726 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7727 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7728 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7729 together.
7730 [Steve Henson]
7731
7732 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7733 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7734 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7735 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7736
7737 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7738 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7739 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7740 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7741 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7742 the answer.
7743
7744 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7745 been tested well enough.
7746 [Richard Levitte]
7747
7748 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7749 it can return incorrect results.
7750 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7751 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7752 [Bodo Moeller]
7753
7754 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7755 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7756 include zero length content when signing messages.
7757 [Steve Henson]
7758
7759 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7760 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7761 [Bodo Möller]
7762
7763 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7764 [Richard Levitte]
7765
7766 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7767 wrong sign.
7768 [Ulf Möller]
7769
7770 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7771 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7772 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7773 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7774 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7775 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7776 [Richard Levitte]
7777
7778 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7779 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7780
7781 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7782 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7783
7784 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7785 random number < q in the DSA library.
7786 [Ulf Möller]
7787
7788 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7789 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7790 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7791 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7792 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7793 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7794 just makes things more complicated.)
7795 [Bodo Moeller]
7796
7797 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7798 from EGD.
7799 [Ben Laurie]
7800
7801 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7802 work better on such systems.
7803 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7804
7805 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7806 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7807 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7808 [Steve Henson]
7809
7810 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7811 if there was more than one signature.
7812 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7813
7814 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7815 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7816 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7817 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7818 [Richard Levitte]
7819
7820 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7821 rather than always using the current time.
7822 [Steve Henson]
7823
7824 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7825 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7826 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7827 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7828 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7829 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7830
7831 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7832 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7833
7834 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7835
7836 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7837 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7838 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7839 the same hash value.
7840
7841 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7842 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7843 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7844 with X509_STORE internally.
7845
7846 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7847 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7848
7849 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7850 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7851 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7852 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7853 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7854 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7855 entirely (maybe later...).
7856
7857 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7858
7859 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7860 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7861 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7862 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7863 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7864 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7865 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7866 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7867
7868 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7869 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7870
7871 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7872 to customise the verify behaviour.
7873 [Steve Henson]
7874
7875 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7876 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7877 [Steve Henson]
7878
7879 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7880 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7881 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7882 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7883 request is improperly encoded.
7884 [Steve Henson]
7885
7886 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7887 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7888 BIO_write(b, ...).
7889
7890 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7891 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7892
7893 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7894 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7895 words set to zero.)
7896 [Bodo Moeller]
7897
7898 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7899 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7900 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7901 [Bodo Moeller]
7902
7903 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7904 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7905 BIO/fp routines also added.
7906 [Steve Henson]
7907
7908 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7909 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7910
7911 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7912 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7913 demos/state_machine.
7914 [Ben Laurie]
7915
7916 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7917 generation and verification.
7918 [Steve Henson]
7919
7920 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7921 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7922 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7923 encode and decode it manually.
7924 [Steve Henson]
7925
7926 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7927 compile under VC++.
7928 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7929
7930 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7931 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7932 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7933 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7934
7935 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7936 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7937 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7938 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7939 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7940 [Steve Henson]
7941
7942 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7943 [Richard Levitte]
7944
7945 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7946 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7947 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7948
7949 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7950 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7951 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7952 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7953 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7954 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7955 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7956 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7957
7958 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7959 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7960
7961 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7962
7963 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7964 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7965 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7966
7967 [Richard Levitte]
7968
7969 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7970 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7971 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7972 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7973 [Richard Levitte]
7974
7975 *) MD4 implemented.
7976 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7977
7978 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7979 [Richard Levitte]
7980
7981 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7982 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7983 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7984 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7985 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7986 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7987 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7988 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7989 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7990 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7991 short or long names are found.
7992 [Steve Henson]
7993
7994 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7995 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7996
7997 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7998 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7999 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
8000 version rollback attacks was not effective.
8001
8002 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
8003 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
8004 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
8005 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
8006 [Bodo Moeller]
8007
8008 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
8009 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
8010 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
8011 [Richard Levitte]
8012
8013 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
8014 these print out strings and name structures based on various
8015 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
8016 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
8017 to allow the various flags to be set.
8018 [Steve Henson]
8019
8020 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
8021 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
8022 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
8023 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
8024 dates to be checked.
8025 [Steve Henson]
8026
8027 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
8028 negative public key encodings) on by default,
8029 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
8030 [Steve Henson]
8031
8032 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
8033 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
8034 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
8035 [Steve Henson]
8036
8037 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
8038 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
8039 [Bodo Moeller]
8040
8041 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
8042 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
8043 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
8044 are always statically linked for now, but there are
8045 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
8046 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
8047 [Richard Levitte]
8048
8049 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
8050 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
8051 Random Numbers.
8052 [Ulf Möller]
8053
8054 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
8055 DSA key.
8056 [Steve Henson]
8057
8058 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
8059 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
8060 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
8061 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
8062 form signing output easier to verify.
8063 [Steve Henson]
8064
8065 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
8066 [Steve Henson]
8067
8068 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
8069 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
8070 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
8071 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
8072 are needed because all other string types have virtually
8073 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
8074 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
8075 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
8076 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
8077 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
8078 [Steve Henson]
8079
8080 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
8081
8082 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
8083 the syntax given in objects.README.
8084 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
8085 obj_mac.h.
8086 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
8087 obj_mac.h.
8088
8089 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
8090 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
8091 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
8092 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
8093 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
8094 consistent name changes.
8095 [Richard Levitte]
8096
8097 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
8098 [Bodo Moeller]
8099
8100 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
8101 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
8102 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
8103 environment variable, or the default random state file.
8104 [Richard Levitte]
8105
8106 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
8107 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
8108 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
8109 of safestack.h .
8110 [Steve Henson]
8111
8112 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
8113 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
8114 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
8115 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
8116 [Steve Henson]
8117
8118 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
8119 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
8120 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
8121 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
8122 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
8123 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
8124 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
8125 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
8126 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
8127 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
8128 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
8129 [Steve Henson]
8130
8131 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
8132 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
8133 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
8134 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
8135 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
8136 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
8137 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
8138 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
8139 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
8140 algorithm to openssl-dev.
8141 [Steve Henson]
8142
8143 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
8144 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
8145 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
8146 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
8147
8148 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
8149 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
8150 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
8151 omit any duplicate addresses.
8152 [Steve Henson]
8153
8154 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
8155 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
8156 [Bodo Moeller]
8157
8158 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
8159 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
8160 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
8161 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
8162 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
8163 [Bodo Moeller]
8164
8165 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
8166 software:
8167 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
8168 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
8169 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
8170 Free => OPENSSL_free
8171 [Richard Levitte]
8172
8173 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8174 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8175 [Bodo Moeller]
8176
8177 *) CygWin32 support.
8178 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8179
8180 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8181 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8182 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8183 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8184 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8185 approach.
8186 [Geoff Thorpe]
8187
8188 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8189 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8190 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8191 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8192 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8193 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8194 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8195 [Geoff Thorpe]
8196
8197 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8198 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8199 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8200 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8201 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8202 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8203 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8204 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8205 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8206 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8207 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8208 [Bodo Moeller]
8209
8210 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8211 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8212 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8213 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8214 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8215
8216 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8217 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8218 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8219 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8220 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8221
8222 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8223 ciphers.
8224
8225 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8226 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8227 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8228 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8229
8230 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8231
8232 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8233 of macros.
8234
8235 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8236 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8237 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8238 flags.
8239
8240 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8241 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8242 any installed hardware versions can.
8243 [Steve Henson]
8244
8245 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8246 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8247 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8248 number.
8249 [Bodo Moeller]
8250
8251 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8252 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8253 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8254 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8255 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8256
8257 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8258 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8259 [Steve Henson]
8260
8261 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8262 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8263 [Richard Levitte]
8264
8265 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8266 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8267 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8268 features.
8269 [Steve Henson]
8270
8271 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8272 [Ulf Möller]
8273
8274 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8275 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8276 but no ssl client purpose.
8277 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8278
8279 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8280 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8281 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8282 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8283 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8284 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8285 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8286 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8287 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8288 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8289 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8290 [Steve Henson]
8291
8292 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8293 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8294 be obtained from the error queue.
8295 [Bodo Moeller]
8296
8297 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8298 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8299 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8300 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8301 [Bodo Moeller]
8302
8303 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8304 [Ulf Möller]
8305
8306 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8307 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8308 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8309 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8310 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8311 [Geoff Thorpe]
8312
8313 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8314 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8315 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8316 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8317 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8318 [Geoff Thorpe]
8319
8320 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8321 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8322 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8323 may not be NULL.
8324 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8325
8326 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8327 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8328 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8329 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8330 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8331 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8332 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8333 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8334 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8335 or "the configuration storage API"...
8336
8337 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8338
8339 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8340 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8341
8342 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8343
8344 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8345
8346 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8347 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8348 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8349 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8350 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8351 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8352 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8353
8354 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8355 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8356 [Richard Levitte]
8357
8358 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8359 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8360 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8361 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8362 [Bodo Moeller]
8363
8364 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8365 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8366 them in a portable way.
8367 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8368
8369 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8370
8371 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8372
8373 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8374 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8375
8376 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8377 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8378 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8379 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8380
8381 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8382 was larger than the MD block size.
8383 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8384
8385 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8386 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8387 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8388 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8389 components.
8390 [Steve Henson]
8391
8392 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8393 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8394 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8395
8396 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8397 discouraged.
8398 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8399
8400 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8401 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8402 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8403 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8404 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8405 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8406
8407 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8408 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8409
8410 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8411 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8412 [Bodo Moeller]
8413
8414 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8415 [Bodo Moeller]
8416
8417 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8418 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8419 its own key.
8420 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8421 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8422 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8423 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8424 [Bodo Moeller]
8425
8426 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8427 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8428 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8429 does not suppress any output.
8430 [Richard Levitte]
8431
8432 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8433 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8434 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8435 with all the associated security issues.
8436
8437 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8438 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8439 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8440 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8441 use the value in the default purpose.
8442 [Steve Henson]
8443
8444 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8445 and fix a memory leak.
8446 [Steve Henson]
8447
8448 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8449 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8450 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8451 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8452 [Bodo Moeller]
8453
8454 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8455 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8456 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8457 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8458 [Bodo Moeller]
8459
8460 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8461 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8462 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8463 [Bodo Moeller]
8464
8465 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8466 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8467 [Bodo Moeller]
8468
8469 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8470 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8471 which was free.
8472 [Steve Henson]
8473
8474 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8475 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8476 [Bodo Moeller]
8477
8478 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8479 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8480 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8481 [Bodo Moeller]
8482
8483 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8484 number generation fails.
8485 [Bodo Moeller]
8486
8487 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8488 [Bodo Moeller]
8489
8490 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8491 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8492
8493 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8494 [Ulf Möller]
8495
8496 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8497 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8498
8499 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8500 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8501
8502 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8503
8504 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8505 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8506 [Steve Henson]
8507
8508 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8509 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8510
8511 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8512 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8513 [Ulf Möller]
8514
8515 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8516 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8517 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8518 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8519 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8520 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8521
8522 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8523 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8524 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8525 for example.
8526 [Steve Henson]
8527
8528 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8529 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8530 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8531 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8532 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8533 counter, some don't.)
8534 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8535 counters or duplicate objects.
8536 [Steve Henson]
8537
8538 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8539 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8540 [Steve Henson]
8541
8542 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8543 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8544 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8545
8546 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8547 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8548 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8549 or -rand.
8550 [Ulf Möller]
8551
8552 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8553 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8554 [Steve Henson]
8555
8556 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8557 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8558 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8559 cipher list.
8560 [Steve Henson]
8561
8562 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8563 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8564 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8565 [Steve Henson]
8566
8567 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8568 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8569 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8570 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8571 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8572 should work without changes.
8573 [Richard Levitte]
8574
8575 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8576 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8577 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8578 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8579 must be defined. E.g.,
8580 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8581 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8582 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8583 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8584
8585 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8586 record layer.
8587 [Bodo Moeller]
8588
8589 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8590 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8591 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8592 [Steve Henson]
8593
8594 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8595 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8596 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8597 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8598 [Steve Henson]
8599
8600 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8601 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8602 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8603 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8604 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8605 is prompted for as usual.
8606 [Steve Henson]
8607
8608 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8609 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8610 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8611 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8612
8613 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8614 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8615 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8616 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8617 [Steve Henson]
8618
8619 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8620 [Andy Polyakov]
8621
8622 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8623 of seed file.
8624 [Steve Henson]
8625
8626 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8627 [Bodo Moeller]
8628
8629 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8630 [Steve Henson]
8631
8632 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8633 bits.
8634 [Ulf Möller]
8635
8636 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8637 [Ulf Möller]
8638
8639 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8640 [Andy Polyakov]
8641
8642 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8643 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8644 [Ulf Möller]
8645
8646 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8647 options to produce them.
8648 [Steve Henson]
8649
8650 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8651 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8652 [Ulf Möller]
8653
8654 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8655 for p == 0.
8656 [Ulf Möller]
8657
8658 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8659 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8660 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8661 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8662 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8663 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8664 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8665 [Steve Henson]
8666
8667 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8668 [Steve Henson]
8669
8670 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8671 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8672 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8673 [Bodo Moeller]
8674
8675 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8676 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8677
8678 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8679 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8680 [Ulf Möller]
8681
8682 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8683 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8684 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8685 has already seen).
8686 [Bodo Moeller]
8687
8688 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8689 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8690
8691 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8692 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8693 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8694 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8695 generation becomes much faster.
8696
8697 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8698 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8699 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8700 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8701 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8702 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8703 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8704 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8705 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8706 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8707 [Bodo Moeller]
8708
8709 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8710 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8711 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8712 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8713 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8714 trial division stage.
8715 [Bodo Moeller]
8716
8717 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8718 as ASN1_TIME.
8719 [Steve Henson]
8720
8721 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8722 [Steve Henson]
8723
8724 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8725 [Ulf Möller]
8726
8727 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8728 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8729 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8730 the comments.
8731 [Ulf Möller]
8732
8733 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8734 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8735 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8736 [Bodo Moeller]
8737
8738 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8739 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8740 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8741 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8742
8743 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8744 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8745 [Steve Henson]
8746
8747 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8748 [Ulf Möller]
8749
8750 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8751 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8752 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8753 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8754 [Ulf Möller]
8755
8756 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8757 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8758 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8759 [Ulf Möller]
8760
8761 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8762 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8763 (instead of parameters) in future.
8764 [Steve Henson]
8765
8766 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8767 when a new cipher list is set.
8768 [Steve Henson]
8769
8770 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8771 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8772 wrong.
8773
8774 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8775 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8776 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8777
8778 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8779 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8780 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8781 an error is flagged.
8782
8783 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8784 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8785 the readability was also increased :-)
8786 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8787
8788 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8789 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8790 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8791 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8792 as the root CA.
8793 [Steve Henson]
8794
8795 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8796 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8797 [Steve Henson]
8798
8799 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8800 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8801 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8802 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8803 instead.
8804
8805 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8806 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8807 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8808 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8809 because they handle more complex structures.)
8810 [Steve Henson]
8811
8812 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8813 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8814 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8815 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8816
8817 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8818 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8819 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8820 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8821 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8822 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8823 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8824 [Ulf Möller]
8825
8826 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8827 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8828 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8829 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8830 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8831 [Bodo Moeller]
8832
8833 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8834 [Bodo Moeller]
8835
8836 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8837 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8838 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8839 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8840 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8841 to use this.
8842
8843 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8844 code.
8845 [Steve Henson]
8846
8847 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8848 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8849 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8850 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8851 [Steve Henson]
8852
8853 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8854 [Ulf Möller]
8855
8856 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8857 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8858 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8859 international characters are used.
8860
8861 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8862 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8863 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8864 in ASN1 order.
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8868 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8869 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8870 request.
8871
8872 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8873 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8874 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8875 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8876 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8877 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8878
8879 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8880 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8881 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8882 be handled by the string table functions.
8883
8884 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8885 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8886 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8887 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8888 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8889 types at all.
8890 [Steve Henson]
8891
8892 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8893 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8894 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8895 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8896 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8897
8898 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8899 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8900 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8901 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8902 [Bodo Moeller]
8903
8904 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8905 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8906 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8907 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8908 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8909 SHA1.
8910 [Andy Polyakov]
8911
8912 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8913 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8914 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8915 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8916 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8917 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8918 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8919 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8920
8921 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8922 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8923 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8924 [Steve Henson]
8925
8926 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8927 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8928 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8929 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8930 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8931 support to pkcs8 application.
8932 [Steve Henson]
8933
8934 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8935 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8936 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8937 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8938 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8939 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8940 [Bodo Moeller]
8941
8942 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8943 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8944 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8945 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8946 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8947 consistency.
8948 [Bodo Moeller]
8949
8950 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8951 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8952 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8953 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8954 example.
8955 [Steve Henson]
8956
8957 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8958 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8959 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8960 and any application specific purposes.
8961
8962 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8963 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8964 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8965 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8966 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8967 if the certificate is self signed.
8968 [Steve Henson]
8969
8970 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8971 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8972 [Steve Henson]
8973
8974 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8975 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8976 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8977 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8978 [Steve Henson]
8979
8980 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8981 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8982 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8983 Update documentation.
8984 [Steve Henson]
8985
8986 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8987 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8988 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8989 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8990 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8991 [Steve Henson]
8992
8993 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8994 for details.
8995 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8996
8997 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8998 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8999 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
9000 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
9001 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
9002 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
9003 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
9004 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
9005 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
9006 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
9007
9008 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
9009
9010 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9011 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9012 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
9013 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
9014 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
9015
9016 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
9017 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
9018 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
9019 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
9020 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
9021 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
9022 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
9023 request additional information:
9024 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
9025 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
9026
9027 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
9028 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
9029 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
9030 options.
9031
9032 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
9033 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
9034
9035 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
9036 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
9037 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
9038
9039 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
9040 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
9041
9042 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
9043 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
9044 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
9045 algorithm.
9046 [Steve Henson]
9047
9048 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
9049 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
9050 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
9051
9052 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
9053 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
9054 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
9055 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
9056 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
9057 included in OpenSSL.
9058 [Steve Henson]
9059
9060 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
9061 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
9062 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
9063 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
9064 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
9065 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
9066 [Bodo Moeller]
9067
9068 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
9069 PKCS12 structure.
9070 [Steve Henson]
9071
9072 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
9073 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
9074 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
9075 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
9076 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
9077 structure.
9078 [Steve Henson]
9079
9080 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
9081 need initialising.
9082 [Steve Henson]
9083
9084 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
9085 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
9086 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
9087 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
9088 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
9089 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
9090 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
9091 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
9092 be maintained manually.
9093
9094 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
9095 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
9096 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
9097 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
9098 work because people forget to call this function]
9099 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
9100 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
9101 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
9102 [Steve Henson]
9103
9104 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
9105 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
9106 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
9107 should be discouraged from doing it.
9108 [Ben Laurie]
9109
9110 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
9111 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
9112 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
9113 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
9114 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
9115 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
9116 [Steve Henson]
9117
9118 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
9119 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
9120 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
9121
9122 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
9123 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
9124 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
9125
9126 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
9127 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
9128 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
9129 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
9130 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
9131 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
9132
9133 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
9134 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
9135 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
9136
9137 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
9138 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
9139 and vice versa.
9140
9141 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
9142 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
9143 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
9144 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
9145 [Steve Henson]
9146
9147 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
9148 [Steve Henson]
9149
9150 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
9151 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
9152 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
9153 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
9154 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
9155 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
9156 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
9157 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
9158 keys so we should be OK.
9159
9160 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
9161 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
9162 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
9163 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
9164 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
9165 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
9166 stay in the name of compatibility.
9167
9168 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
9169 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
9170 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
9171
9172 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9173 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9174 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9175 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9176 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9177 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9178 supplied key).
9179 [Steve Henson]
9180
9181 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9182 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9183 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9184 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9185 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9186 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9187 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9188 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9189 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9190 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9191 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9192 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9193 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9194 [Steve Henson]
9195
9196 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9197 [Steve Henson]
9198
9199 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9200 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9201 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9202 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9203 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9204 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9205 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9206 openssl verify ss.pem
9207 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9208 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9209 is OK.
9210 [Steve Henson]
9211
9212 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9213 (and add it to external session representation).
9214 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9215 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9216 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9217 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9218 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9219 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9220 security holes.
9221 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9222
9223 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9224 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9225 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9226 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9227
9228 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9229 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9230 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9231 [Steve Henson]
9232
9233 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9234 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9235 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9236 code.
9237 [Steve Henson]
9238
9239 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9240 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9241 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9242
9243 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9244 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9245 certificate auxiliary information.
9246 [Steve Henson]
9247
9248 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9249 the 'enc' command.
9250 [Steve Henson]
9251
9252 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9253 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9254 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9255 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9256 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9257 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9258 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9259 [Richard Levitte]
9260
9261 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9262 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9263 [Steve Henson]
9264
9265 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9266 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9267 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9268 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9269 [Steve Henson]
9270
9271 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9272 [Steve Henson]
9273
9274 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9275 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9276 [Steve Henson]
9277
9278 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9279 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9280 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9281 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9282 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9283 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9284 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9285 using the new 'x509' options.
9286
9287 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9288 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9289 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9290 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9291 for all purposes.
9292 [Steve Henson]
9293
9294 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9295 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9296 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9297 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9298 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9299 [Mark Cox]
9300
9301 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9302 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9303 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9304 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9305 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9306 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9307 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9308 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9309 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9310 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9311 [Steve Henson]
9312
9313 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9314 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9315 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9316 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9317 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9318 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9319 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9320 [Steve Henson]
9321
9322 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9323 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9324 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9325 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9326 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9327 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9328 openssl.cnf for more info.
9329 [Steve Henson]
9330
9331 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9332 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9333 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9334 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9335 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9336 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9337 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9338 md should be large enough anyway.
9339 [Bodo Moeller]
9340
9341 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9342 for handling the random seed file.
9343
9344 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9345 ca,
9346 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9347 s_client,
9348 s_server,
9349 x509 (when signing).
9350 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9351 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9352 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9353
9354 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9355 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9356 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9357 that support '-rand'.
9358 [Bodo Moeller]
9359
9360 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9361 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9362 [Bodo Moeller]
9363
9364 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9365 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9366 [Bill Perry]
9367
9368 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9369 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9370 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9371 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9372 is suitable.
9373 [Steve Henson]
9374
9375 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9376 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9377 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9378 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9379 [Steve Henson]
9380
9381 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9382 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9383 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9384 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9385 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9386 print out all the purposes.
9387 [Steve Henson]
9388
9389 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9390 functions.
9391 [Steve Henson]
9392
9393 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9394 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9395 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9396 single function call.
9397 [Steve Henson]
9398
9399 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9400 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9401 [Andy Polyakov]
9402
9403 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9404 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9405 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9406 [Steve Henson]
9407
9408 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9409 when producing the local key id.
9410 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9411
9412 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9413 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9414 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9415 "server.pem".
9416 [Steve Henson]
9417
9418 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9419 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9420 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9421 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9422 [Steve Henson]
9423
9424 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9425 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9426 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9427 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9428
9429 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9430 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9431 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9432 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9433
9434 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9435 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9436 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9437 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9438 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9439 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9440 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9441 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9442 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9443 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9444 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9445 trivial: move one line.
9446 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9447
9448 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9449 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9450 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9451 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9452 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9453 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9454 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9455 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9456 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9457 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9458 with an event loop for example.
9459 [Steve Henson]
9460
9461 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9462 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9463 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9464 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9465 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9466 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9467 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9468 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9469 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9470 [Steve Henson]
9471
9472 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9473 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9474 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9475 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9476 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9477 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9478 [Steve Henson]
9479
9480 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9481 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9482 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9483 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9484
9485 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9486 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9487 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9488 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9489 key generation.
9490 [Steve Henson]
9491
9492 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9493 (still largely untested)
9494 [Bodo Moeller]
9495
9496 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9497 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9498 [Steve Henson]
9499
9500 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9501 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9502 [Steve Henson]
9503
9504 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9505 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9506 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9507 [Bodo Moeller]
9508
9509 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9510 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9511 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9512 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9513 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9514 [Steve Henson]
9515
9516 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9517 [Andy Polyakov]
9518
9519 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9520 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9521 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9522 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9523 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9524 in ca.
9525 [Steve Henson]
9526
9527 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9528 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9529 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9530 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9531 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9532 [Steve Henson]
9533
9534 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9535 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9536 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9537 are otherwise ignored at present.
9538 [Steve Henson]
9539
9540 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9541 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9542 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9543 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9544 copied until the next read.
9545 [Steve Henson]
9546
9547 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9548 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9549 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9550 [Steve Henson]
9551
9552 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9553 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9554 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9555 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9556 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9557 associated functions.
9558 [Steve Henson]
9559
9560 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9561 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9562 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9563 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9564 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9565 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9566 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9567 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9568 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9569 memory BIOs.
9570 [Steve Henson]
9571
9572 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9573 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9574 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9575 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9576 [Bodo Moeller]
9577
9578 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9579 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9580 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9581 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9582 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9583 functionality.
9584 [Steve Henson]
9585
9586 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9587 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9588 under Win32.
9589 [Steve Henson]
9590
9591 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9592 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9593 extensions to be obtained and added.
9594 [Steve Henson]
9595
9596 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9597 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9598 [Bodo Moeller]
9599
9600 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9601
9602 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9603 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9604
9605 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9606 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9607
9608 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9609 program.
9610 [Steve Henson]
9611
9612 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9613 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9614 DH parameters contain its length).
9615
9616 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9617 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9618 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9619 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9620 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9621 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9622 utter importance to use
9623 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9624 or
9625 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9626 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9627 attacks may become possible!
9628 [Bodo Moeller]
9629
9630 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9631 [Bodo Moeller]
9632
9633 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9634 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9635 [Steve Henson]
9636
9637 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9638 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9639 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9640 or long name.
9641 [Steve Henson]
9642
9643 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9644 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9645 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9646 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9647 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9648 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9649 private key operations.
9650 [Steve Henson]
9651
9652 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9653 [Andy Polyakov]
9654
9655 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9656 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9657 to
9658 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9659 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9660 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9661 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9662 the password callback is called.
9663 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9664
9665 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9666
9667 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9668 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9669 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9670 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9671 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9672 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9673 this will work.
9674
9675 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9676 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9677 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9678 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9679 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9680 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9681 [Bodo Moeller]
9682
9683 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9684 [Andy Polyakov]
9685
9686 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9687 delete an unused file.
9688 [Ulf Möller]
9689
9690 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9691 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9692 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9693 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9694 [Steve Henson]
9695
9696 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9697 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9698 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9699 of an error.
9700 [Bodo Moeller]
9701
9702 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9703 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9704 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9705
9706 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9707 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9708 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9709 comparison" warnings.
9710 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9711 [Steve Henson]
9712
9713 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9714 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9715 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9716 [Steve Henson]
9717
9718 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9719 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9720
9721 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9722 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9723
9724 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9725 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9726 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9727
9728 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9729 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9730 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9731 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9732 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9733 this bug.
9734 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9735
9736 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9737 The interface is as follows:
9738 Applications can use
9739 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9740 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9741 "off" is now the default.
9742 The library internally uses
9743 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9744 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9745 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9746
9747 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9748 even the default) are now avoided.
9749
9750 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9751 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9752 than just having a counter.
9753
9754 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9755
9756 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9757 extensions.
9758 [Bodo Moeller]
9759
9760 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9761 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9762 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9763 Initial "mode" flags are:
9764
9765 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9766 a single record has been written.
9767 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9768 retries use the same buffer location.
9769 (But all of the contents must be
9770 copied!)
9771 [Bodo Moeller]
9772
9773 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9774 worked.
9775
9776 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9777 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9778
9779 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9780 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9781 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9782 [Steve Henson]
9783
9784 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9785 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9786 test programs.
9787 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9788
9789 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9790 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9791 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9792 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9793 point to the end.
9794 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9795 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9796
9797 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9798 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9799 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9800 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9801 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9802 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9803 [Steve Henson]
9804
9805 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9806 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9807 necessary function names.
9808 [Steve Henson]
9809
9810 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9811 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9812 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9813 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9814 [Bodo Moeller]
9815
9816 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9817 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9818 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9819 [Steve Henson]
9820
9821 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9822 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9823 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9824 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9825 such programs?)
9826 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9827 need locks.
9828 [Bodo Moeller]
9829
9830 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9831 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9832 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9833 [Bodo Moeller]
9834
9835 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9836 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9837 appropriate.
9838 [Bodo Moeller]
9839
9840 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9841 for the encoded length.
9842 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9843
9844 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9845 [Steve Henson]
9846
9847 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9848 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9849 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9850 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9851 [Steve Henson]
9852
9853 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9854 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9855 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9856
9857 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9858 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9859 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9860 unusual formatting.
9861 [Steve Henson]
9862
9863 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9864 to use the new extension code.
9865 [Steve Henson]
9866
9867 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9868 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9869 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9870 constant.
9871 [Steve Henson]
9872
9873 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9874 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9875 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9876 [Bodo Moeller]
9877
9878 #if 0
9879 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9880 [Ben Laurie]
9881 #else
9882 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9883 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9884 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9885 #endif
9886
9887 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9888 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9889 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9890 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9891 [Ben Laurie]
9892
9893 *) DES library cleanups.
9894 [Ulf Möller]
9895
9896 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9897 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9898 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9899 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9900 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9901 of v2.0.
9902 [Steve Henson]
9903
9904 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9905 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9906 [Bodo Moeller]
9907
9908 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9909 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9910 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9911 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9912 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9913 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9914 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9915 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9916 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9917 [Steve Henson]
9918
9919 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9920 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9921 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9922 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9923 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9924 value doesn't matter.
9925 [Steve Henson]
9926
9927 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9928 support mutable.
9929 [Ben Laurie]
9930
9931 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9932 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9933 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9934 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9935
9936 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9937 [Ulf Möller]
9938
9939 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9940 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9941 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9942
9943 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9944 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9945
9946 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9947 [Ben Laurie]
9948
9949 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9950 [Ben Laurie]
9951
9952 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9953 [Ben Laurie]
9954
9955 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9956 [Bodo Moeller]
9957
9958
9959 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9960
9961 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9962
9963 *) Updated some demos.
9964 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9965
9966 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9967 [Wu Zhigang]
9968
9969 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9970 [Steve Henson]
9971
9972 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9973 [Steve Henson]
9974
9975 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9976 instead of using a fixed path.
9977 [Bodo Moeller]
9978
9979 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9980 [Andy Polyakov]
9981
9982 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9983 [Richard Levitte]
9984
9985
9986 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9987
9988 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9989 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9990 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9991
9992 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9993 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9994 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9995 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9996 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9997 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9998 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9999 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
10000 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
10001 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
10002 [Steve Henson]
10003
10004 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
10005 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
10006 [Steve Henson]
10007
10008 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
10009 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
10010 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
10011 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
10012 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
10013
10014 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
10015 [Bodo Moeller]
10016
10017 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
10018 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
10019 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
10020 [Steve Henson]
10021
10022 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
10023 [Ben Laurie]
10024
10025 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
10026 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
10027 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
10028 key elements as negative integers.
10029 [Steve Henson]
10030
10031 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
10032 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10033
10034 *) VMS support.
10035 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
10036
10037 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
10038 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
10039 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
10040 [Steve Henson]
10041
10042 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
10043 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
10044 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
10045 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
10046 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
10047 [Bodo Moeller]
10048
10049 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
10050 [Ulf Möller]
10051
10052 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
10053 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
10054 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
10055 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10056
10057 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
10058 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
10059 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
10060
10061 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
10062 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
10063 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
10064 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
10065 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
10066 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
10067 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
10068 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
10069 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
10070
10071 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
10072 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
10073 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
10074 does not influence s as it used to.
10075
10076 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
10077 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
10078 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
10079 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
10080 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
10081 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
10082 [Bodo Moeller]
10083
10084 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
10085 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
10086 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
10087 key type.
10088 [Steve Henson]
10089
10090 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
10091 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
10092 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
10093 and 'x509').
10094 [Steve Henson]
10095
10096 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
10097 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
10098 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
10099 extension option.
10100 [Steve Henson]
10101
10102 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
10103 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
10104 [Ben Laurie]
10105
10106 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
10107 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10108
10109 *) Support Mingw32.
10110 [Ulf Möller]
10111
10112 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
10113 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10114
10115 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
10116 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10117
10118 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
10119 [Ulf Möller]
10120
10121 *) Update HPUX configuration.
10122 [Anonymous]
10123
10124 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
10125 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10126
10127 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
10128 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
10129 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
10130 DER-encoded.)
10131 [Bodo Moeller]
10132
10133 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
10134 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
10135 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
10136 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
10137 now it really counts the depth.
10138 [Bodo Moeller]
10139
10140 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
10141 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
10142 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
10143 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
10144 didn't match the private key).
10145
10146 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
10147 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
10148 connection using the SSL_CTX).
10149 [Bodo Moeller]
10150
10151 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
10152 [Ulf Möller]
10153
10154 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
10155 David Harris.
10156 [Bodo Moeller]
10157
10158 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
10159 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
10160 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
10161 [Bodo Moeller]
10162
10163 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
10164 [Bodo Moeller]
10165
10166 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
10167 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
10168 such as /usr/local/bin.
10169 [Bodo Moeller]
10170
10171 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10172 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10173
10174 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10175 [Ulf Möller]
10176
10177 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10178 extension adding in x509 utility.
10179 [Steve Henson]
10180
10181 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10182 [Ulf Möller]
10183
10184 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10185 prototypes.
10186 [Steve Henson]
10187
10188 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10189 [Ulf Möller]
10190
10191 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10192 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10193 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10194 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10195 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10196 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10197 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10198 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10199 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10200 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10201 [Steve Henson]
10202
10203 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10204 [Bodo Moeller]
10205
10206 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10207 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10208 [Bodo Moeller]
10209
10210 *) Fix some race conditions.
10211 [Bodo Moeller]
10212
10213 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10214 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10215 [Steve Henson]
10216
10217 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10218 [Ulf Möller]
10219
10220 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10221 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10222 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10223 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10224
10225 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10226 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10227
10228 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10229 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10230 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10231
10232 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10233 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10234
10235 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10236 [Ulf Möller]
10237
10238 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10239 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10240
10241 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10242 [Ulf Möller]
10243
10244 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10245 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10246
10247 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10248 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10249 [Steve Henson]
10250
10251 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10252 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10253 [Ben Laurie]
10254
10255 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10256 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10257 [Steve Henson]
10258
10259 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10260 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10261 [Steve Henson]
10262
10263 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10264 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10265 [Steve Henson]
10266
10267 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10268 support typesafe stack.
10269 [Steve Henson]
10270
10271 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10272 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10273
10274 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10275 old X509V3 handling code.
10276 [Steve Henson]
10277
10278 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10279 [Ulf Möller]
10280
10281 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10282 [Bodo Moeller]
10283
10284 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10285 [Ben Laurie]
10286
10287 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10288 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10289
10290 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10291 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10292 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10293 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10294 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10295 [Ben Laurie]
10296
10297 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10298 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10299 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10300 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10301 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10302
10303 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10304 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10305 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10306 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10307
10308 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10309 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10310 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10311 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10312
10313 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10314 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10315 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10316 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10317 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10318 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10319 [Bodo Moeller]
10320
10321 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10322 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10323 [Bodo Moeller]
10324
10325 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10326 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10327 [Ulf Möller]
10328
10329 *) Tweaks to Configure
10330 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10331
10332 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10333 yet...
10334 [Steve Henson]
10335
10336 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10337 [Ulf Möller]
10338
10339 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10340 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10341 [Ulf Möller]
10342
10343 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10344 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10345 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10346 [Bodo Moeller]
10347
10348 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10349 [Bodo Moeller]
10350
10351 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10352 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10353 [Steve Henson]
10354
10355 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10356 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10357 to library startup routines.
10358 [Steve Henson]
10359
10360 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10361 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10362 codes along the way.
10363 [Steve Henson]
10364
10365 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10366 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10367 objects to objects.h
10368 [Steve Henson]
10369
10370 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10371 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10372 [Steve Henson]
10373
10374 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10375 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10376
10377 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10378 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10379 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10380
10381 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10382 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10383 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10384
10385 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10386 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10387 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10388
10389
10390 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10391
10392 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10393 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10394 [Ben Laurie]
10395
10396 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10397 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10398 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10399 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10400 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10401
10402 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10403 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10404 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10405 document.
10406 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10407
10408 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10409 Malloc, Free.
10410 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10411
10412 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10413 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10414
10415 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10416 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10417 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10418 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10419
10420 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10421 [Ben Laurie]
10422
10423 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10424 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10425 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10426 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10427 [Steve Henson]
10428
10429 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10430 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10431 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10435 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10436 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10437 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10438 installed as `perl').
10439 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10440
10441 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10442 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10443
10444 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10445 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10446 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10447 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10448 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10449 [Steve Henson]
10450
10451 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10452 [Ben Laurie]
10453
10454 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10455 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10456 is horrible: I feel ill....
10457 [Steve Henson]
10458
10459 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10460 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10461 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10462 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10463 [Steve Henson]
10464
10465 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10466 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10467
10468 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10469 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10470 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10471 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10472
10473 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10474 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10475 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10476 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10477 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10478 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10479 openssl_bio.xs.
10480 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10481
10482 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10483 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10484
10485 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10486 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10487
10488 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10489 [Ben Laurie]
10490
10491 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10492 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10493 in CRLs.
10494 [Steve Henson]
10495
10496 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10497 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10498 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10499 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10500 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10501 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10502 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10503 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10504 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10505 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10506 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10507
10508 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10509 [Ben Laurie]
10510
10511 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10512 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10513 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10514 for linking it into DSOs.
10515 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10516
10517 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10518 Fixed.
10519 [Ben Laurie]
10520
10521 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10522 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10523 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10524 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10525 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10526 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10527
10528 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10529 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10530 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10531 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10532 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10533 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10534 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10535
10536 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10537 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10538 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10539 encryption.
10540 [Ben Laurie]
10541
10542 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10543 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10544 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10545 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10546 [Steve Henson]
10547
10548 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10549 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10550 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10551 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10552 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10553 field as blank.
10554 [Steve Henson]
10555
10556 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10557 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10558 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10559 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10560 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10561
10562 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10563 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10564 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10565
10566 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10567 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10568
10569 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10570 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10571 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10572 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10573 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10574 [Steve Henson]
10575
10576 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10577 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10578 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10579 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10580 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10581 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10582 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10583 [Ben Laurie]
10584
10585 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10586 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10587 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10588 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10589 [Ben Laurie]
10590
10591 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10592 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10593
10594 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10595 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10596 [Steve Henson]
10597
10598 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10599 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10600 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10601 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10602 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10603 (e.g. s_server).
10604 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10605 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10606 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10607 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10608 no way to reconfigure them.
10609 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10610 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10611 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10612 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10613 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10614 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10615
10616 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10617 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10618 recognized by the users.
10619 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10620
10621 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10622 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10623 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10624 already masked variable.
10625 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10626
10627 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10628 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10629
10630 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10631 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10632 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10633 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10634
10635 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10636 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10637 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10638
10639 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10640 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10641 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10642 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10643 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10644 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10645 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10646 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10647 now, too.
10648 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10649
10650 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10651 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10652 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10653
10654 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10655 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10656 config file.
10657 [Steve Henson]
10658
10659 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10660 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10661
10662 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10663 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10664 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10665 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10666 [Ben Laurie]
10667
10668 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10669 [Steve Henson]
10670
10671 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10672 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10673
10674 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10675 [Ben Laurie]
10676
10677 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10678 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10679 [Steve Henson]
10680
10681 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10682 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10683 [Steve Henson]
10684
10685 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10686 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10687 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10688 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10689 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10690 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10691 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10692 Ben Laurie]
10693
10694 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10695 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10696
10697 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10698 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10699 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10700 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10701 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10702
10703 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10704 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10705 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10706 [Steve Henson]
10707
10708 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10709 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10710 an example.
10711 [Steve Henson]
10712
10713 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10714 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10715 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10716
10717 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10718 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10719 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10720 build instructions.
10721 [Steve Henson]
10722
10723 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10724 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10725 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10726 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10727 [Steve Henson]
10728
10729 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10730 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10731 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10732 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10733 [Ben Laurie]
10734
10735 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10736 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10737 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10738 so it wasn't spotted.
10739 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10740
10741 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10742 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10743 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10744 vectors if you have them.
10745 [Ben Laurie]
10746
10747 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10748 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10749 [Ben Laurie]
10750
10751 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10752 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10753 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10754 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10755 If you do a:
10756 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10757 it will update them.
10758 [Steve Henson]
10759
10760 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10761 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10762 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10763 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10764 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10765 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10766 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10767 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10768
10769 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10770 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10771 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10772 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10773 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10774 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10775 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10776 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10777 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10778 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10779
10780 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10781 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10782 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10783 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10784 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10785 [Steve Henson]
10786
10787 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10788 INTEGER code.
10789 [Steve Henson]
10790
10791 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10792 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10793
10794 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10795 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10796
10797 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10798 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10799 [Ben Laurie]
10800
10801 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10802 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10803
10804 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10805 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10806
10807 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10808 [Steve Henson]
10809
10810 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10811 few typos.
10812 [Steve Henson]
10813
10814 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10815 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10816 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10817 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10818
10819 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10820 [Steve Henson]
10821
10822 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10823 [Steve Henson]
10824
10825 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10826 [Steve Henson]
10827
10828 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10829 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10830 [Steve Henson]
10831
10832 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10833 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10834 CA extensions.
10835 [Steve Henson]
10836
10837 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10838 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10839 [Steve Henson]
10840
10841 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10842 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10843 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10844 [Steve Henson]
10845
10846 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10847 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10848 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10849 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10850 properly to be processed.
10851 [Steve Henson]
10852
10853 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10854 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10855 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10856 [Ben Laurie]
10857
10858 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10859 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10860
10861 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10862 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10863 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10864 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10865 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10866 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10867 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10868 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10869 or delete all the .err files.
10870 [Steve Henson]
10871
10872 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10873 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10874 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10875 to regenerate it if needed.
10876 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10877 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10878
10879 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10880 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10881
10882 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10883 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10884 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10885 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10886 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10887 [Steve Henson]
10888
10889 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10890 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10891
10892 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10893 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10894
10895 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10896 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10897 error, but didn't set one).
10898 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10899
10900 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10901 [Ben Laurie]
10902
10903 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10904 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10905 [Steve Henson]
10906
10907 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10908 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10909
10910 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10911 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10912 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10913 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10914 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10915 OID is not part of the table.
10916 [Steve Henson]
10917
10918 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10919 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10920 [Ben Laurie]
10921
10922 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10923 [Ben Laurie]
10924
10925 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10926 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10927 was "1234").
10928 [Steve Henson]
10929
10930 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10931 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10932
10933 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10934 NULL pointers.
10935 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10936
10937 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10938 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10939
10940 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10941 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10942
10943 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10944 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10945
10946 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10947 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10948 [Ben Laurie]
10949
10950 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10951 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10952 [Steve Henson]
10953
10954 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10955 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10956
10957 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10958 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10959
10960 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10961 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10962
10963 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10964 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10965
10966 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10967 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10968 unused in the certificate verification process.
10969 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10970
10971 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10972 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10973 [Steve Henson]
10974
10975 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10976 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10977 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10978
10979 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10980 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10981 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10982 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10983 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10984
10985 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10986 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10987 [Steve Henson]
10988
10989 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10990 [Steve Henson]
10991
10992 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10993 [Paul Sutton]
10994
10995 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10996 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10997
10998 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10999 [Ben Laurie]
11000
11001 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
11002 [Ben Laurie]
11003
11004 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
11005 [Ben Laurie]
11006
11007 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
11008 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
11009 other error libraries.
11010 [Steve Henson]
11011
11012 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
11013 [Steve Henson]
11014
11015 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
11016 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
11017 be read in.
11018 [Steve Henson]
11019
11020 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
11021 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
11022 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
11023 the new set of documenation files.
11024 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11025
11026 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
11027 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
11028 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
11029 number of arguments.
11030 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
11031
11032 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
11033 [Ben Laurie]
11034
11035 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
11036 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
11037 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11038
11039 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
11040 [Ben Laurie]
11041
11042 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
11043 nextstep
11044 ncr-scde
11045 unixware-2.0
11046 unixware-2.0-pentium
11047 sco5-cc.
11048 [Ben Laurie]
11049
11050 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
11051 before they are needed.
11052 [Ben Laurie]
11053
11054 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
11055 [Ben Laurie]
11056
11057

11063
11064 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
11065 [Paul Sutton]
11066
11067 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
11068 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
11069 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11070
11071 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
11072 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
11073 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
11074
11075 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
11076 when "ssleay" is still not found.
11077 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11078
11079 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
11080 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
11081
11082 *) Updated the README file.
11083 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11084
11085 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
11086 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
11087 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11088
11089 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
11090 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.

11108
11109 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
11110 [Mark J. Cox]
11111
11112 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
11113 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
11114 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
11115 summer 1998.
