4
5 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
8 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
11 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
12 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
13 [Steve Henson]
14
15 *) Add callbacks supporting generation and retrieval of supplemental
16 data entries.
17 [Scott Deboy <sdeboy@apache.org>, Trevor Perrin and Ben Laurie]
18
19 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
20 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
21 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
22 algorithms and include tests cases.
23 [Steve Henson]
24
25 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
26 structure.
27 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
28
29 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
30 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
31 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
32 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
33 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
34 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
35 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
36
37 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
38 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
39 [Steve Henson]
40
41 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
42 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
43 summary of the connection parameters.
44 [Steve Henson]
45
46 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
47 of connection parameters.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
51 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
52
53 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
54 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
55 [Steve Henson]
56
57 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
58 [Steve Henson]
59
60 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
61 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
64 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
65 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
66 [Steve Henson]
67
68 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
69 certificates.
70 [Steve Henson]
71
72 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
73 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
74 CRLs using the OCSP API.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
78 [Steve Henson]
79
80 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
81 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
82 [Steve Henson]
83
84 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
85 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
86 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
87 tracing.
88 [Steve Henson]
89
90 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
91 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
92 [Steve Henson]
93
94 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
95 OID NID.
96 [Steve Henson]
97
98 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
99 client to OpenSSL.
100 [Steve Henson]
101
102 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
103 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
104 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
105 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
106 [Steve Henson]
107
108 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
109 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
110 [Steve Henson]
111
112 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
113 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
114 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
115 comparison.
116 [Steve Henson]
117
118 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
119 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
120 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
121 use the certificate.
122 [Steve Henson]
123
124 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
125 [Steve Henson]
126
127 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
128 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
129 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
130 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
131 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
132 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
133 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
134
135 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
136 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
137
138 [Steve Henson]
139
140 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
141 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
142 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
146 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
147 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
148 supported signature algorithms.
149 [Steve Henson]
150
151 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
152 [Steve Henson]
153
154 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
155 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
156 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
157 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
158 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
159 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
160 certificate and specify the whole chain.
161 [Steve Henson]
162
163 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
164 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
165 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
166 to have similar checks in it.
167
168 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
169 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
170 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
171 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
172 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
173 [Steve Henson]
174
175 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
176 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
177 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
178 shared signature algorithms.
179 [Steve Henson]
180
181 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
182 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
183 to support them.
184 [Steve Henson]
185
186 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
187 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
188 it couldn't be removed.
189 [Steve Henson]
190
191 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
192 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
193 [Steve Henson]
194
195 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
196 functions. Add manual page.
197 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
198
199 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
200 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
201 a certificate.
202 [Steve Henson]
203
204 *) Fix OCSP checking.
205 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
206
207 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
208 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
209 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
210 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
211 utility) or reject.
212 [Steve Henson]
213
214 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
215 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
216 [Steve Henson]
217
218 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
219 platform support for Linux and Android.
220 [Andy Polyakov]
221
222 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
223 [Andy Polyakov]
224
225 *) RFC 5878 (TLS Authorization Extensions) support.
226 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
227
228 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
229 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
230 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
231 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
232 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
233 [Steve Henson]
234
235 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
236 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
237 the new parameter format automatically.
238 [Steve Henson]
239
240 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
241 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
242 [Steve Henson]
243
244 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
245 [Steve Henson]
246
247 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
248 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
249 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
250 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
251 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
252 [Steve Henson]
253
254 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
255 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
256 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
257 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
258 to set list of supported curves.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
262 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
263 to print out received values.
264 [Steve Henson]
265
266 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
267 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
268 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
269 [Steve Henson]
270
271 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
272 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
273 [Steve Henson]
274
275 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
276 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
277 [Steve Henson]
278
279 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
280 certificates.
281 [Steve Henson]
282
283 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
284
285 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
286 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
287 server.
288
289 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
290 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
291 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
292 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
293
294 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
295 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
296 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
297 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
298
299 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
300 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
301 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
302
303 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
304
305 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
306 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
307 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
308 is at least 512 bytes long.
309
310 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
311
312 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
313
314 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
315 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
316 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
317 (CVE-2013-4353)
318
319 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
320 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
321 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
322 [Steve Henson]
323
324 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
325 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
326 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
327 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
328 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
329 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
330 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
331
332 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
333
334 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
335 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
336 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
337
338 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
339
340 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
341
342 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
343 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
344 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
345
346 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
347 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
348 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
349 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
350 (CVE-2013-0169)
351 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
352
353 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
354 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
355 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
356 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
357 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
358 (CVE-2012-2686)
359 [Adam Langley]
360
361 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
362 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
363 [Steve Henson]
364
365 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
366 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
367
368 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
369 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
370 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
371 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
372 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
373
374 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
375 [Steve Henson]
376
377 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
378 if renegotiating.
379 [Steve Henson]
380
381 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
382
383 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
384 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
385
386 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
387 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
388 (CVE-2012-2333)
389 [Steve Henson]
390
391 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
392 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
393 [Steve Henson]
394
395 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
396 approved.
397 [Steve Henson]
398
399 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
400
401 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
402 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
403 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
404 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
405 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
406 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
407 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
408 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
409 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
410 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
411 [Steve Henson]
412
413 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
414 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
415 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
416 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
417 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
418 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
419 client side.
420 [Andy Polyakov]
421
422 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
423
424 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
425 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
426 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
427
428 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
429 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
430 (CVE-2012-2110)
431 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
432
433 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
434 [Adam Langley]
435
436 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
437 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
438
439 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
440 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
441 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
442 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
443 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
444 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
445 Most broken servers should now work.
446 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
447 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
448 [Steve Henson]
449
450 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
451 [Andy Polyakov]
452
453 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
454
455 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
456 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
457 [Steve Henson]
458
459 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
460 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
461 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
462 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
463 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
464 [Steve Henson]
465
466 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
467 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
468 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
469 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
470 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
471 [Steve Henson]
472
473 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
474 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
475
476 *) Add support for SCTP.
477 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
478
479 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
480 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
481
482 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
483
484 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
485 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
486 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
487 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
488 - s390x: z196 support;
489 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
490
491 [Andy Polyakov]
492
493 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
494 (removal of unnecessary code)
495 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
496
497 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
498 [Eric Rescorla]
499
500 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
501 [Eric Rescorla]
502
503 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
504 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
505 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
506 by Google.
507 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
508
509 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
510 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
511 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
512 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
513 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
514
515 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
516 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
517 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
518
519 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
520 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
521 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
522
523 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
524 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
525 implementations).
526 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
527
528 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
529 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
530 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
531 [Steve Henson]
532
533 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
534 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
535 particular PSS.
536 [Steve Henson]
537
538 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
539 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
540 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
541 [Steve Henson]
542
543 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
544 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
545 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
546 the appropriate parameters.
547 [Steve Henson]
548
549 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
550 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
551 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
552 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
553 against a number of sample certificates.
554 [Steve Henson]
555
556 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
557 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
558
559 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
560 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
561
562 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
563 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
564 parameters r, s.
565 [Steve Henson]
566
567 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
568 RFC3211.
569 [Steve Henson]
570
571 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
572 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
573 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
574 password based CMS).
575 [Steve Henson]
576
577 *) Session-handling fixes:
578 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
579 but also support Session Tickets.
580 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
581 presented a ticket with an expired session.
582 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
583 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
584 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
585 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
586
587 *) Fix PSK session representation.
588 [Bodo Moeller]
589
590 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
591
592 This work was sponsored by Intel.
593 [Andy Polyakov]
594
595 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
596 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
597 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
598 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
599 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
600 [Steve Henson]
601
602 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
603 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
604 [Steve Henson]
605
606 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
607 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
608 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
609 [Steve Henson]
610
611 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
612 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
613 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
614 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
615 [Steve Henson]
616
617 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
618 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
619 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
620 [Steve Henson]
621
622 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
623 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
624
625 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
626 [Steve Henson]
627
628 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
629 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
630 [Steve Henson]
631
632 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
633 [Steve Henson]
634
635 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
636 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
637 [Steve Henson]
638
639 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
640 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
641 [Steve Henson]
642
643 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
644 [Steve Henson]
645
646 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
647 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
648 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
649 [Steve Henson]
650
651 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
652 [Steve Henson]
653
654 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
655 [Steve Henson]
656
657 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
658 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
659 [Steve Henson]
660
661 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
662 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
663 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
664 [Steve Henson]
665
666 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
667 [Steve Henson]
668
669 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
670 and enable MD5.
671 [Steve Henson]
672
673 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
674 FIPS modules versions.
675 [Steve Henson]
676
677 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
678 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
679 until after the certificate request message is received.
680 [Steve Henson]
681
682 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
683 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
684 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
685 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
686 [Steve Henson]
687
688 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
689 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
690 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
691 support yet and no support for client certificates.
692 [Steve Henson]
693
694 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
695 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
696 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
697 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
698 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
699 and version checking.
700 [Steve Henson]
701
702 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
703 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
704 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
705 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
706 [Steve Henson]
707
708 *) Add SRP support.
709 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
710
711 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
712 [Steve Henson]
713
714 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
715 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
716 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
717
718 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
719 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
720 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
721 [Steve Henson]
722
723 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
724 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
725
726 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
727 a few changes are required:
728
729 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
730 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
731 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
732 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
733 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
734 [Steve Henson]
735
736 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
737
738 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
739
740 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
741 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
742 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
743
744 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
745 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
746 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
747 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
748 (CVE-2013-0169)
749 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
750
751 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
752 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
753 [Steve Henson]
754
755 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
756 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
757 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
758 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
759 (This is a backport)
760 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
761
762 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
763 [Steve Henson]
764
765 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
766
767 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
768 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
769
770 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
771 to fix DoS attack.
772
773 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
774 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
775 (CVE-2012-2333)
776 [Steve Henson]
777
778 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
779 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
780 [Steve Henson]
781
782 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
783
784 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
785 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
786 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
787
788 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
789 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
790 (CVE-2012-2110)
791 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
792
793 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
794
795 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
796 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
797 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
798 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
799 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
800 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
801 an MMA defence is not necessary.
802 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
803 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
804 [Steve Henson]
805
806 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
807 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
808 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
809 [Steve Henson]
810
811 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
812
813 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
814 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
815 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
816 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
817 [Antonio Martin]
818
819 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
820
821 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
822 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
823 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
824 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
825 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
826 paper describing this attack can be found at:
827 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
828 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
829 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
830 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
831 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
832 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
833 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
834
835 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
836 (CVE-2011-4576)
837 [Adam Langley (Google)]
838
839 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
840 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
841 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
842 [Adam Langley (Google)]
843
844 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
845 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
846
847 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
848 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
849 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
850 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
851
852 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
853 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
854
855 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
856 [Adam Langley (Google)]
857
858 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
859 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
860
861 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
862 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
863 [Adam Langley (Google)]
864
865 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
866 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
867 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
868
869 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
870 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
871 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
872 the last update always remained unused).
873 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
874
875 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
876 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
877
878 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
879
880 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
881 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
882 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
883
884 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
885 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
886 [Adam Langley (Google)]
887
888 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
889 [Bodo Moeller]
890
891 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
892 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
893 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
897 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
898
899 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
900
901 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
902
903 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
904
905 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
906 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
907
908 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
909 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
910 ambiguous.
911 [Steve Henson]
912
913 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
914
915 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
916 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
917 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
918 [Steve Henson]
919
920 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
921 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
922 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
923 [Ben Laurie]
924
925 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
926
927 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
928 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
929 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
930 [Steve Henson]
931
932 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
933 a DLL.
934 [Steve Henson]
935
936 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
937
938 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
939 (CVE-2010-1633)
940 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
941
942 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
943
944 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
945 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
946 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
947 [Steve Henson]
948
949 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
950 [Steve Henson]
951
952 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
953 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
954 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
955
956 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
957 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
958 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
959 [Steve Henson]
960
961 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
962 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
965 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
966 some responders need this.
967 [Steve Henson]
968
969 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
970 correctly.
971 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
972
973 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
974 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
975 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
976 [Steve Henson]
977
978 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
979 [Steve Henson]
980
981 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
982 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
983 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
984 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
985 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
986 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
987 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
988 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
989 [Steve Henson]
990
991 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
992 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
993 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
994 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
995
996 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
997 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
998
999 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1000 be used on C++.
1001 [Steve Henson]
1002
1003 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1004 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1005 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1006 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1007 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1008 attempting to work them out.
1009 [Steve Henson]
1010
1011 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1012 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1013 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1014 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1015 [Steve Henson]
1016
1017 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1018 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1019 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1020 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1021 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1022 [Steve Henson]
1023
1024 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1025 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1026 you can do:
1027
1028 openssl sha256 foo
1029
1030 as well as:
1031
1032 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1033
1034 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1035
1036 [Steve Henson]
1037
1038 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1039 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1040
1041 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1042 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1043
1044 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1045 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1046 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1047 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1048 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1049 [Steve Henson]
1050
1051 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1052 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1053 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1054 [Steve Henson]
1055
1056 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1057 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1058 [Steve Henson]
1059
1060 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1061 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1062
1063 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1064 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1065 [Steve Henson]
1066
1067 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1068 [Ben Laurie]
1069
1070 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1071 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1072 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1073 CONF_VALUE.
1074 [Ben Laurie]
1075
1076 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1077 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1078 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1079 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1080 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1081 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1082 [Steve Henson]
1083
1084 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1085 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1086
1087 This work was sponsored by Google.
1088 [Steve Henson]
1089
1090 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1091 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1092 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1093 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1094 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1095 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1096 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1097 default.
1098
1099 This work was sponsored by Google.
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1103
1104 This work was sponsored by Google.
1105 [Steve Henson]
1106
1107 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1108 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1109 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1110 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1111
1112 This work was sponsored by Google.
1113 [Steve Henson]
1114
1115 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1116 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1117 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1118 CRL functionality in future.
1119
1120 This work was sponsored by Google.
1121 [Steve Henson]
1122
1123 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1124
1125 This work was sponsored by Google.
1126 [Steve Henson]
1127
1128 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1129 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1130
1131 This work was sponsored by Google.
1132 [Steve Henson]
1133
1134 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1135 and URI types are currently supported.
1136
1137 This work was sponsored by Google.
1138 [Steve Henson]
1139
1140 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1141 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1142 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1143 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1144 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1145 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1146 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1147 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1148
1149 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1150 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1151 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1152
1153 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1154 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1155 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1156 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1157
1158 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1159 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1160 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1161 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1162 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1163 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1164 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1165 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1166 of &errno.)
1167 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1168
1169 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1170 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1171 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1172
1173 This work was sponsored by Google.
1174 [Steve Henson]
1175
1176 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1177 [Ben Laurie]
1178
1179 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1180 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1181 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1182 [Ben Laurie]
1183
1184 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1185 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1186 [Nick Mathewson]
1187
1188 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1189 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1190 [Ben Laurie]
1191
1192 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1193 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1194 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1195 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1196 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1197 content types and variants.
1198 [Steve Henson]
1199
1200 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1201 [Steve Henson]
1202
1203 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1204 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1205 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1206 files from the associated perl scripts.
1207 [Steve Henson]
1208
1209 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1210 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1211 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1212
1213 *) s390x assembler pack.
1214 [Andy Polyakov]
1215
1216 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1217 "family."
1218 [Andy Polyakov]
1219
1220 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1221 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1222 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1223 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1224 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1225 to use. For example, specify an option
1226
1227 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1228
1229 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1230 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1231 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1232 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1233 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1234 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1235
1236 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1237 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1238 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1239 return non-zero for success.
1240
1241 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1242 by using
1243
1244 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1245 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1246
1247 where
1248
1249 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1250 void *arg;
1251
1252 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1253 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1254 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1255 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1256 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1257 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1258 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1259 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1260 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1261
1262 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1263 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1264 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1265 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1266 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1267 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1268
1269 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1270 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1271 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1272 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1273 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1274 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1275
1276 [Bodo Moeller]
1277
1278 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1279 MAC.
1280
1281 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1282
1283 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1284 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1285 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1286 supported.
1287
1288 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1289 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1290 SSL_SESSION.
1291
1292 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1293 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1294 with no application modification.
1295
1296 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1297 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1298
1299 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1300 or server extensions to be examined.
1301
1302 This work was sponsored by Google.
1303 [Steve Henson]
1304
1305 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1306 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1307 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1308
1309 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1310 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1311 ciphersuite support.
1312 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1313
1314 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1315 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1316 to output in BER and PEM format.
1317 [Steve Henson]
1318
1319 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1320 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1321 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1322 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1323 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1324 [Steve Henson]
1325
1326 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1327 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1328 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1329 utility.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1333 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1334 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1335 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1336 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1337 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1338 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1339 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1340 enabled again.
1341
1342 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1343 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1344 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1345 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1346
1347 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1348 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1349 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1350 the default order.
1351 [Bodo Moeller]
1352
1353 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1354 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1355 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1356 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1357 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1358 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1359 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1360 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1361 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1362
1363 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1364 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1365 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1366 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1367 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1368 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1369 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1370 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1371 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1372 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1373 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1374 kinds of kludges.
1375
1376 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1377 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1378 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1379
1380 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1381 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1382 "CAMELLIA256".
1383 [Bodo Moeller]
1384
1385 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1386 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1387 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1388 [Nils Larsch]
1389
1390 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1391 it yet and it is largely untested.
1392 [Steve Henson]
1393
1394 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1395 [Nils Larsch]
1396
1397 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1398 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1399 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1400 [Steve Henson]
1401
1402 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1403 [Andy Polyakov]
1404
1405 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1406 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1407 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1408 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1409 [Steve Henson]
1410
1411 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1412 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1413 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1414 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1415 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1416 [Steve Henson]
1417
1418 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1419 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1420 [Cryptocom]
1421
1422 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1423 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1424 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1425 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1429 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1430 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1431 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1432 [Steve Henson]
1433
1434 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1435 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1436 [Steve Henson]
1437
1438 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1439 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1440 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1441 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1442 [Steve Henson]
1443
1444 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1445 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1446 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1447 [Steve Henson]
1448
1449 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1450 utility.
1451 [Steve Henson]
1452
1453 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1454 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1455 [Steve Henson]
1456
1457 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1458 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1459 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1460 if necessary.
1461 [Steve Henson]
1462
1463 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1464 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1465 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1466 [Steve Henson]
1467
1468 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1469 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1470 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1471 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1472 [Steve Henson]
1473
1474 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1475 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1476 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1477 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1478 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1479 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1480 [Douglas Stebila]
1481
1482 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1483 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1484 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1485 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1486 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1487
1488 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1489 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1490 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1491 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1492 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1493 protocol).
1494
1495 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1496 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1497 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1498 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1499
1500 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1501 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1502 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1503 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1504 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1505
1506 aECDH - ECDH cert
1507 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1508 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1509
1510 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1511 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1512
1513 [Bodo Moeller]
1514
1515 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1516 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1517 [Steve Henson]
1518
1519 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1520 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1521 [Steve Henson]
1522
1523 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1524 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1525 functional reference processing.
1526 [Steve Henson]
1527
1528 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1529 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1530 process.
1531 [Steve Henson]
1532
1533 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1534 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1535 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1536 [Steve Henson]
1537
1538 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1539 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1540 application to support multiple signers.
1541 [Steve Henson]
1542
1543 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1544 digest MAC.
1545 [Steve Henson]
1546
1547 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1548 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1549 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1550 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1551 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1555 new API.
1556 [Steve Henson]
1557
1558 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1559 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1560 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1561 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1562 a no op.
1563 [Steve Henson]
1564
1565 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1566 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1567 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1568 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1569 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1570 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1571 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1572 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1573 [Steve Henson]
1574
1575 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1576 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1577 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1578 between digests and public key types.
1579 [Steve Henson]
1580
1581 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1582 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1583 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1584 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1585 [Steve Henson]
1586
1587 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1588 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1589 key ASN1 method.
1590 [Steve Henson]
1591
1592 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
1595 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1596 pkeyutl.
1597 [Steve Henson]
1598
1599 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1600 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1601 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1602 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1603 pkey, genpkey.
1604 [Steve Henson]
1605
1606 *) BeOS support.
1607 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1608
1609 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1610 manual pages.
1611 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1612
1613 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1614 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1615 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1616 functionality for RSA.
1617 [Steve Henson]
1618
1619 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1620 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1621 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1622 [Steve Henson]
1623
1624 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1625 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1626 [Steve Henson]
1627
1628 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1629 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1630 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1631 [Steve Henson]
1632
1633 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1634 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1635 [Douglas Stebila]
1636
1637 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1638 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1639 [Steve Henson]
1640
1641 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1642 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1643 type.
1644 [Steve Henson]
1645
1646 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1647 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1648 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1649 structure.
1650 [Steve Henson]
1651
1652 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1653 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1654 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1655 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1656 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1657 of public and private key structures.
1658 [Steve Henson]
1659
1660 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1661 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1662 [Douglas Stebila]
1663
1664 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1665 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1666 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1667
1668 New ciphersuites:
1669 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1670 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1671
1672 New functions:
1673 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1674 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1675 SSL_get_psk_identity
1676 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1677
1678 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1679
1680 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1681 and response verification functionality.
1682 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1683
1684 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1685 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1686 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1687 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1688 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1689 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1690 server_name extension.
1691
1692 New functions (subject to change):
1693
1694 SSL_get_servername()
1695 SSL_get_servername_type()
1696 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1697
1698 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1699
1700 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1701 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1702 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1703 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1704 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1705
1706 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1707
1708 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1709 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1710 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1711 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1712 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1713 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1714 option.
1715
1716 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1717
1718 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1719 [Andy Polyakov]
1720
1721 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1722 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1723 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1724 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1725 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1726 [Andy Polyakov]
1727
1728 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1729 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1730 macro.
1731 [Bodo Moeller]
1732
1733 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1734 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1735 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1736 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1737 [Andy Polyakov]
1738
1739 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1740 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1741 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1742 using the maximum available value.
1743 [Steve Henson]
1744
1745 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1746 in addition to the text details.
1747 [Bodo Moeller]
1748
1749 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1750 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1751 handle several customised structures at all.
1752 [Steve Henson]
1753
1754 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1755 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1756 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1757 [Steve Henson]
1758
1759 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1760 [Steve Henson]
1761
1762 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1763 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1764 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1765 [Steve Henson]
1766
1767 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1768 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1769 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1770 [Nils Larsch]
1771
1772 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1773 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1774 all fields.
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
1777 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1778 [Steve Henson]
1779
1780 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1781 [NTT]
1782
1783 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
1784
1785 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1786
1787 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1788 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1789 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1790
1791 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1792 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1793 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1794 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1795 (CVE-2013-0169)
1796 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1797
1798 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1799 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1800 [Steve Henson]
1801
1802 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1803 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1804 [Steve Henson]
1805
1806 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1807 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1808 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1809 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1810 (This is a backport)
1811 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1812
1813 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
1817
1818 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
1819 to fix DoS attack.
1820
1821 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1822 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1823 (CVE-2012-2333)
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1827 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
1831
1832 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
1833 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
1834 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
1835 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
1836 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
1837
1838 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
1839
1840 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1841 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1842 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1843
1844 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1845 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1846 (CVE-2012-2110)
1847 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1848
1849 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
1850
1851 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1852 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1853 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1854 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1855 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1856 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1857 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1858 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1859 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1863 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1864 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1865 [Steve Henson]
1866
1867 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
1868
1869 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1870 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1871 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1872 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1873 [Antonio Martin]
1874
1875 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
1876
1877 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1878 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1879 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1880 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1881 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1882 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1883 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1884 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1885 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1886 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1887 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1888 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1889 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1890
1891 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
1892 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
1893
1894 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1895 (CVE-2011-4576)
1896 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1897
1898 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1899 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1900 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1901 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1902
1903 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1904 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1905 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1906 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1907
1908 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1909 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1910
1911 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1912 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1913
1914 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1915 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1916 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1917
1918 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1919 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1920 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1921
1922 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1923 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1924 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1925 the last update always remained unused).
1926 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1927
1928 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1929 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
1930 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1931
1932 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1933 [Bodo Moeller]
1934
1935 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1936 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1937
1938 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1939
1940 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1941
1942 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
1943
1944 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1945 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1946
1947 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1948 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1949 ambiguous.
1950 [Steve Henson]
1951
1952 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
1953
1954 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1955 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1956 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1957 [Steve Henson]
1958
1959 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1960 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1961 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1962 [Ben Laurie]
1963
1964 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
1965
1966 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1967 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1968 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1969 [Steve Henson]
1970
1971 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
1972 [Steve Henson]
1973
1974 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
1975 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
1976 some broken encodings work correctly.
1977 [Steve Henson]
1978
1979 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
1980 is also one of the inputs.
1981 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1982
1983 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
1984 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
1985 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
1986 etc are non-op.
1987 [Steve Henson]
1988
1989 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
1990
1991 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
1992 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
1993
1994 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
1995 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
1996 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
1997
1998 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
1999 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2000 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) VMS fixes:
2004 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2005 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2006 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2007 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2008
2009 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2010
2011 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2012 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2013 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2014 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2015 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2016 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2017 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2018 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2019
2020 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2021 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2022 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2023
2024 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2025
2026 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2027 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2028
2029 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2030 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2031 [Bodo Moeller]
2032
2033 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2034 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2035 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2036 [Steve Henson]
2037
2038 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2039 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2040 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2041 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2042 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2043 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2044 [Steve Henson]
2045
2046 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2047 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2048 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2049 [Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2052 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2053 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2054 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2055 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2056 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2057 CVE-2009-4355.
2058 [Steve Henson]
2059
2060 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2061 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2062 [Bodo Moeller]
2063
2064 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2065 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2066 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2070 [Steve Henson]
2071
2072 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2073 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2074 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2075 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2076 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2077 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2078 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2079 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2080 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2081 [Steve Henson]
2082
2083 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2084 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2085 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2086 [Steve Henson]
2087
2088 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2089 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2090 [Steve Henson]
2091
2092 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2093 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2094 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2095 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2096 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2097 know what you are doing.
2098 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2099
2100 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2101 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2102 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2103 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2104 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2105 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2106 the handshake.
2107 [Steve Henson]
2108
2109 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2110 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2111 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2112 correctly.
2113 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2114
2115 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2116 warnings in other configurations.
2117 [Steve Henson]
2118
2119 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2120 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2121 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2122 systems need.
2123 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2124
2125 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2126 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2127 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2128
2129 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2130 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2131 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2132 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2133 [Steve Henson]
2134
2135 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2136 and restored.
2137 [Steve Henson]
2138
2139 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2140 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2141 clash.
2142 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2143
2144 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2145 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2146 other than a simple chain.
2147 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2148
2149 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2150 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2151 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2152 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2153 [Steve Henson]
2154
2155 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2156 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2157 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2158 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2159 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2160 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2161 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2162 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2163 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2164
2165 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2166 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2167 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2168 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2169 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2170 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2171 (CVE-2009-1377)
2172 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2173
2174 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2175 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2176 [Daniel Mentz]
2177
2178 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2179 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2180
2181 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2182 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2183
2184 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2185
2186 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2187 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2188 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2189 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2190 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2191 you're doing.
2192 [Ben Laurie]
2193
2194 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2195
2196 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2197 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2198 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2199 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2200
2201 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2202 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2203 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2204 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2205
2206 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2207 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2208 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2209 [Steve Henson]
2210
2211 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2212 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2213 level.
2214 [Steve Henson]
2215
2216 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2217 to handle some structures.
2218 [Steve Henson]
2219
2220 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2221 for a '\n'
2222 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2223
2224 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2225 [Matthieu Herrb]
2226
2227 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2228 [Steve Henson]
2229
2230 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2231 [Steve Henson]
2232
2233 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2234 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2235 chosen compiler.
2236 [Ben Laurie]
2237
2238 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2239
2240 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2241 (CVE-2008-5077).
2242 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2243
2244 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2245 [Ben Laurie]
2246
2247 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2248 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2249 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2250 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2251
2252 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2253 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2254
2255 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2256 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2257 [Bodo Moeller]
2258
2259 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2260 s_client and s_server.
2261 [Ben Laurie]
2262
2263 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2264 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2265
2266 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2267 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2268
2269 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2270 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2271 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2272 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2273 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2274 [Bodo Moeller]
2275
2276 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2277
2278 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2279 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2280 [PR #1679]
2281
2282 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2283 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2284 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2285
2286 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2287 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2288 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2289 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2290
2291 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2292 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2293
2294 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2295
2296 *) Various precautionary measures:
2297
2298 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2299
2300 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2301 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2302 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2303
2304 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2305 outside the expected range.
2306
2307 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2308 builds.
2309
2310 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2311
2312 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2313 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2314 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2315
2316 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2317 [Steve Henson]
2318
2319 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2320 [Huang Ying]
2321
2322 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2323
2324 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2325 [Steve Henson]
2326
2327 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2328 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2329 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2330
2331 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2332 [Steve Henson]
2333
2334 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2335 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2336 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2337 files.
2338 [Steve Henson]
2339
2340 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2341
2342 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2343 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2344 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2345 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2346
2347 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2348 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2349 [Joe Orton]
2350
2351 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2352
2353 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2354 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2355 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2356
2357 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2358
2359 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2360 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2361 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2362 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2363 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2364
2365 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2366 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2367 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2368 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2369 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2370 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2371 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2372
2373 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2374
2375 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2376 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2377 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2378 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2379 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2380
2381 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2382 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2383
2384 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2385 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2386 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2387 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2388 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2389
2390 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2391
2392 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2393 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2394 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2395 sets may exist with different names.
2396 [Steve Henson]
2397
2398 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2399 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2400 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2401 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2402 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2403 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2404 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2405 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2406 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2407 implementation.
2408 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2409
2410 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2411 implemention in the following ways:
2412
2413 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2414 hard coded.
2415
2416 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2417 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2418 ignored for embedded content.
2419
2420 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2421 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2422 [Steve Henson]
2423
2424 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2425 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2426 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2427 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2428
2429 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2430 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2431 [Steve Henson]
2432
2433 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2434 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2435 [Steve Henson]
2436
2437 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2438 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2439 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2440 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2441 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2442 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2443 data.
2444 [Steve Henson]
2445
2446 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2447 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2448 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2449
2450 *) Netware support:
2451
2452 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2453 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2454 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2455 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2456 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2457 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2458 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2459 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2460 platform
2461 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2462 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2463 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2464 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2465 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2466 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2467 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2468
2469 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2470 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2471 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2472 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2473 to s_client and s_server.
2474 [Steve Henson]
2475
2476 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2477
2478 *) Fix various bugs:
2479 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2480 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2481 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2482 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2483 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2484
2485 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2486
2487 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2488 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2489 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2490 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2491 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2492 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2493 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2494 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2495 [Andy Polyakov]
2496
2497 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2498 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2499 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2500 Steve Henson]
2501
2502 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2503 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2504 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2505 supported.
2506
2507 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2508 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2509 SSL_SESSION.
2510
2511 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2512 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2513 with no application modification.
2514
2515 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2516 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2517
2518 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2519 or server extensions to be examined.
2520
2521 This work was sponsored by Google.
2522 [Steve Henson]
2523
2524 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2525 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2526 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2527 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2528 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2529 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2530 server_name extension.
2531
2532 New functions (subject to change):
2533
2534 SSL_get_servername()
2535 SSL_get_servername_type()
2536 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2537
2538 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2539
2540 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2541 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2542 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2543 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2544 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2545
2546 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2547
2548 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2549 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2550 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2551 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2552 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2553 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2554 option.
2555
2556 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2557
2558 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2559 [Steve Henson]
2560
2561 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2562 [Andy Polyakov]
2563
2564 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2565 (which previously caused an internal error).
2566 [Bodo Moeller]
2567
2568 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2569 [Ben Laurie]
2570
2571 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2572 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2573
2574 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2575 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2576 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2577
2578 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2579 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2580 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2581 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2582
2583 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2584 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2585 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2586 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2587
2588 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2589 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2590 information. For detailed background information, see
2591 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2592 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2593 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2594 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2595 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2596 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2597 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2598 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2599 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2600 remove a conditional branch.
2601
2602 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2603 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2604 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2605 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2606 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2607 remains as a deprecated alias.
2608
2609 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2610 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2611 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2612 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2613
2614 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2615 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2616 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2617 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2618 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2619 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2620 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2621 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2622
2623 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2624
2625 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2626 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2627 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2628 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2629 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2630 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2631 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2632 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2633 in a different context.
2634 [Bodo Moeller]
2635
2636 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2637 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2638 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2639 [Bodo Moeller]
2640
2641 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2642 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2643 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2644
2645 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2646
2647 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2648 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2649 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2650 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2651 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2652 [Victor Duchovni]
2653
2654 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2655 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2656 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2657 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2658 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2659 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2660 [Bodo Moeller]
2661
2662 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2663 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2664 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2665 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2666 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2667 [Bodo Moeller]
2668
2669 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2670 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2671
2672 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2673 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2674 Improve header file function name parsing.
2675 [Steve Henson]
2676
2677 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2678 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2679 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2680
2681 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2682
2683 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2684 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2685 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2686
2687 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2688 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2691 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2692
2693 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2694 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2695 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2696
2697 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2698 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2699 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2700 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2701 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2702 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2703 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2704 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2705 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2706
2707 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2708 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2709 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2710 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2711 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2712
2713 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2714 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2715 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2716 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2717 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2718 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2719 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2720 multiple values to extend the available space.
2721
2722 [Bodo Moeller]
2723
2724 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2725
2726 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2727 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2728
2729 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2730 [Ben Laurie]
2731
2732 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2733 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2734 undesirable limitations.
2735 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2736
2737 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2738 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2739 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2740 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2741 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2742 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2743 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2744 [Bodo Moeller]
2745
2746 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2747
2748 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2749 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2750 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2751
2752 The latter two were purportedly from
2753 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2754 appear there.
2755
2756 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2757 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2758 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2759 [Bodo Moeller]
2760
2761 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2762 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2763 [Bodo Moeller]
2764
2765 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2766 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2767 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2768 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2769
2770 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2771 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2772 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2773 [NTT]
2774
2775 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2776 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2777 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2778 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2779 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2780 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2781 [Steve Henson]
2782
2783 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2784
2785 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2786 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2787 [Steve Henson]
2788
2789 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2790 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2791
2792 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2793 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2794 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2795 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2796 [Douglas Stebila]
2797
2798 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2799 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2800 [Steve Henson]
2801
2802 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2803 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2804 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2805 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2806 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2807 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2808 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2809 can't be loaded.
2810 [Steve Henson]
2811
2812 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2813 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2814 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2815 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2816 [Steve Henson]
2817
2818 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2819 under VC++ build system.
2820 [Steve Henson]
2821
2822 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2823 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2824 [Richard Levitte]
2825
2826 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2827
2828 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2829 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2830 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2831 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2832 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2833
2834 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2835 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2836 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2837
2838 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
2839 [Steve Henson]
2840
2841 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2842 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2843 [Nils Larsch]
2844
2845 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
2846 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
2847
2848 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
2849 [Nick Mathewson]
2850
2851 *) Extended Windows CE support.
2852 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
2853
2854 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
2855 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2856 [Steve Henson]
2857
2858 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2859 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2860 smime utility.
2861 [Steve Henson]
2862
2863 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
2864
2865 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2866 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2867
2868 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2869 [Richard Levitte]
2870
2871 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2872 key into the same file any more.
2873 [Richard Levitte]
2874
2875 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2876 [Andy Polyakov]
2877
2878 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2879 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2880
2881 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2882 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2883 [Richard Levitte]
2884
2885 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2886 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2887 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2888 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2889 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2890 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2891
2892 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2893 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2894 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2895 [Steve Henson]
2896
2897 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2898 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2899 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2900 - add new function for parameter creation
2901 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2902 BN_BLINDING parameters
2903 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2904 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2905 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2906 threads.
2907 [Nils Larsch]
2908
2909 *) Add support for DTLS.
2910 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2911
2912 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2913 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2914 [Walter Goulet]
2915
2916 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2917 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2918 [Nils Larsch]
2919
2920 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2921 the apps/openssl applications.
2922 [Nils Larsch]
2923
2924 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2925 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2926 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2927 [Ben Laurie]
2928
2929 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
2930 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2931
2932 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2933 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2934
2935 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2936 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2937 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2938 avoid this algorithm.)
2939
2940 [Bodo Moeller]
2941
2942 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2943 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2944 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2945 [Richard Levitte]
2946
2947 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
2948 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
2949 [Andy Polyakov]
2950
2951 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2952 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2953 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2954 pod file:
2955
2956 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
2957
2958 The blank line is mandatory.
2959
2960 [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2963 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2964 sources.
2965 [Steve Henson]
2966
2967 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2968 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2969
2970 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2971 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2972 to support policy checking and print out.
2973 [Steve Henson]
2974
2975 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
2976 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
2977 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2978 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2979
2980 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2981 [Geoff Thorpe]
2982
2983 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2984 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2985
2986 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2987 implementation contributed by IBM.
2988 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2989
2990 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2991 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2992 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2993 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2994
2995 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2996 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2997
2998 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2999 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3000 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3001 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3002 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3003 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3004 [Steve Henson]
3005
3006 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3007 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3008 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3009 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3010 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3011 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3012 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3013 [Geoff Thorpe]
3014
3015 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3016 [Steve Henson]
3017
3018 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3019 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3020 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3021 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3022 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3023 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3024 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3025 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3026 [Steve Henson]
3027
3028 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3029 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3030 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3031 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3032 [Steve Henson]
3033
3034 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3035 syntax:
3036
3037 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3038 [Steve Henson]
3039
3040 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3041 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3042 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3043 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3044 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3045 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3046 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3047 [Geoff Thorpe]
3048
3049 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3050 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3051 [Geoff Thorpe]
3052
3053 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3054 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3055 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3056 [Steve Henson]
3057
3058 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3059 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3060 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3061 below).
3062 [Geoff Thorpe]
3063
3064 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3065 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3066 [Richard Levitte]
3067
3068 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3069 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3070 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3071 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3072 [Geoff Thorpe]
3073
3074 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3075 initialised value as BN_new().
3076 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3077
3078 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3079 [Steve Henson]
3080
3081 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3082 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3083 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3084 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3085 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3086 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3087 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3088 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3089 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3090 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3091 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3092 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3093 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3094 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3095 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3096
3097 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3098 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3099 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3100 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3101 [Geoff Thorpe]
3102
3103 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3104 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3105 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3106 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3107 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3108 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3109 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3110 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3111 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3112 [Geoff Thorpe]
3113
3114 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3115 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3116 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3117 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3118 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3119 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3120 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3121 [Geoff Thorpe]
3122
3123 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3124 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3125 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3126 these have been updated also.
3127 [Geoff Thorpe]
3128
3129 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3130 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3131 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3132 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3133 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3134 functions.
3135 [Steve Henson]
3136
3137 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3138 structure of type "other".
3139 [Steve Henson]
3140
3141 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3142 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3143 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3144 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3145 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3146 situation in the script.
3147 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3148
3149 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3150 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3151 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3152 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3153 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3154 used as premaster secret.
3155 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3156
3157 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3158 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3159 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3160
3161 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3162 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3163
3164 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3165 control of the error stack.
3166 [Richard Levitte]
3167
3168 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3169 [Richard Levitte]
3170
3171 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3172 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3173 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3174 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3175 [Richard Levitte]
3176
3177 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3178 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3179 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3180 [Richard Levitte]
3181
3182 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3183 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3184 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3185 a memory area.
3186 [Richard Levitte]
3187
3188 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3189 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3190 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3191 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3192 [Richard Levitte]
3193
3194 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3195 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3196 the following flags are defined:
3197
3198 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3199 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3200 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3201 number.
3202
3203 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3204 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3205 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3206 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3207 returns zero.
3208 [Richard Levitte]
3209
3210 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3211 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3212 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3213 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3214 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3215 [Richard Levitte]
3216
3217 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3218 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3219 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3220 [Richard Levitte]
3221
3222 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3223 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3224 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3225 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3226 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3227 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3228 [Richard Levitte]
3229
3230 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3231 req and dirName.
3232 [Steve Henson]
3233
3234 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3235 [Steve Henson]
3236
3237 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3238 [Steve Henson]
3239
3240 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3241 [Steve Henson]
3242
3243 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3244 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3245 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3246 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3247 default implementation more easily.
3248 [Geoff Thorpe]
3249
3250 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3251 in config files.
3252 [Steve Henson]
3253
3254 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3255 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3256 [Richard Levitte]
3257
3258 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3259 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3260 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3261 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3262
3263 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3264 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3265 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3266 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3267 [Steve Henson]
3268
3269 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3270 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3271 to do it.
3272 [Richard Levitte]
3273
3274 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3275 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3276 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3277 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3278 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3279 scalar * generator).
3280 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3281
3282 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3283 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3284 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3285 correctly.
3286 [Steve Henson]
3287
3288 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3289 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3290 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3291 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3292 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3293 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3294 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3295 linker additions, eg;
3296 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3297 [Geoff Thorpe]
3298
3299 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3300 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3301 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3302 [Geoff Thorpe]
3303
3304 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3305 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3306 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3307 via PR#459)
3308 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3309
3310 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3311 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3312 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3313 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3314 [Geoff Thorpe]
3315
3316 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3317 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3318 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3319 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3320 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3321 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3322 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3323 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3324 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3325 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3326
3327 Example for using the new callback interface:
3328
3329 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3330 void *my_arg = ...;
3331 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3332
3333 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3334
3335 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3336 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3337 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3338 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3339 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3340 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3341 */
3342
3343 [Geoff Thorpe]
3344
3345 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3346 available to TLS with the number defined in
3347 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3348 [Richard Levitte]
3349
3350 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3351 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3352
3353 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3354 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3355 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3356 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3357
3358 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3359 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3360
3361 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3362 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3363 well.
3364 [Richard Levitte]
3365
3366 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3367 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3368 [Richard Levitte]
3369
3370 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3371 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3372 and a macro that behave like
3373 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3374
3375 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3376 [Nils Larsch]
3377
3378 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3379 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3380 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3381 if applicable.
3382 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3383
3384 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3385 [Bodo Moeller]
3386
3387 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3388 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3389 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3390 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3391 directory engines/.
3392 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3393 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3394 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3395 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3396 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3397 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3398 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3399 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3400
3401 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3402 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3403 [Richard Levitte]
3404
3405 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3406 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3407
3408 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3409 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3410 files while avoiding the low level API.
3411
3412 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3413 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3414 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3415 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3416
3417 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3418 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3419 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3420 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3421 instead of the low level API.
3422 [Steve Henson]
3423
3424 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3425 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3426 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3427 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3428 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3429 PKCS#7 code.
3430
3431 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3432 down to the template encoder.
3433 [Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3436 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3437 [Bodo Moeller]
3438
3439 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3440 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3441 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3442 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3443
3444 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3445 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3446
3447 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3448 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3449
3450 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3451 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3452 [Bodo Moeller]
3453
3454 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3455 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3456 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3457 [Bodo Moeller]
3458
3459 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3460 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3461
3462 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3463 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3464
3465 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3466 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3467 New EC_METHOD:
3468
3469 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3470
3471 New API functions:
3472
3473 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3474 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3475 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3476 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3477 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3478 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3479
3480 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3481 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3482 enable it).
3483
3484 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3485 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3486 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3487 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3488 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3489 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3490 various internal method names.)
3491
3492 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3493 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3494
3495 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3496 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3497
3498 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3499 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3500
3501 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3502 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3503 methods are undefined.
3504
3505 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3506 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3507
3508 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3509 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3510 length of the modulus.
3511
3512 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3513 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3514
3515 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3516 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3517
3518 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3519 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3520
3521 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3522 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3523 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3524
3525 BN_GF2m_add
3526 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3527 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3528 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3529 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3530 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3531 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3532 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3533 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3534 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3535
3536 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3537 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3538
3539 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3540 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3541 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3542 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3543 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3544 where
3545 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3546 This applies to the following functions:
3547
3548 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3549 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3550 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3551 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3552 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3553 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3554 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3555 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3556 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3557 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3558
3559 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3560
3561 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3562 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3563
3564 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3565
3566 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3567 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3568 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3569 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3570 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3571
3572 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3573 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3574
3575 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3576 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3577 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3578
3579 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3580 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3581
3582 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3583 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3584 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3585 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3586 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3587
3588 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3589 functions
3590 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3591 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3592 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3593 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3594 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3595 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3596 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3597 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3598 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3599 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3600 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3601 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3602
3603 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3604 functions
3605 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3606 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3607 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3608 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3609 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3610
3611 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3612 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3613 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3614 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3615
3616 *) Add functions
3617 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3618 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3619 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3620 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3621 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3622 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3623 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3624
3625 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3626 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3627 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3628 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3629 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3630 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3631 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3632 adding different types of curves.
3633 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3634
3635 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3636 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3637 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3638 [Bodo Moeller]
3639
3640 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3641 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3642
3643 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3644 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3645 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3646 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3647
3648 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3649
3650 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3651 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3652
3653 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3654 library. Most notably,
3655 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3656 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3657 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3658 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3659 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3660 extracted before the specific public key;
3661 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3662 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3663
3664 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3665 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3666 function
3667 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3668 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3669 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3670 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3671 accessed via
3672 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3673 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3674 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3675
3676 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3677 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3678 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3679 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3680 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3681 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3682 differing sizes.
3683 [Richard Levitte]
3684
3685 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3686
3687 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3688 sensitive data.
3689 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3690
3691 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3692 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3693 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3694 [Bodo Moeller]
3695
3696 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3697 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3698 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3699 [Victor Duchovni]
3700
3701 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3702 [Steve Henson]
3703
3704 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3705 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3706 [Steve Henson]
3707
3708 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3709 run algorithm test programs.
3710 [Steve Henson]
3711
3712 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3713 [Steve Henson]
3714
3715 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3716 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3717 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3718 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3719 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3720 [Bodo Moeller]
3721
3722 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3723 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3724 [Steve Henson]
3725
3726 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3727
3728 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3729 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3730 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3731
3732 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3733 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3734
3735 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3736 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3737
3738 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3739 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3740 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3741
3742 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3743 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3744 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3745 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3746 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3747 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3748 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3749 [Bodo Moeller]
3750
3751 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3752
3753 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3754 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3755
3756 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3757 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3758 undesirable limitations.
3759 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3760
3761 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3762
3763 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3764 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3765 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3766
3767 The latter two were purportedly from
3768 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3769 appear there.
3770
3771 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3772 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3773 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3774 [Bodo Moeller]
3775
3776 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3777 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3778 [Bodo Moeller]
3779
3780 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3781
3782 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3783 module in FIPS mode.
3784 [Steve Henson]
3785
3786 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3787 [Steve Henson]
3788
3789 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3790 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3791 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3792 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3793 [Steve Henson]
3794
3795 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3796
3797 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3798 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3799 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3800 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3801 the difference induced by this change.
3802 [Andy Polyakov]
3803
3804 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3805
3806 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3807 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3808 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3809 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3810 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3811
3812 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3813 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3814 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3815
3816 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
3817 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
3818 [Steve Henson]
3819
3820 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3821 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3822 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3823 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3824 biased k.)
3825 [Bodo Moeller]
3826
3827 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
3828 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3829 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3830 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3831 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
3832
3833 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3834 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
3835 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
3836 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3837 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3838 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
3839
3840 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
3841
3842 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
3843 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3844 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3845 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3846 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
3847 [Bodo Moeller]
3848
3849 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3850 clients need.
3851 [Steve Henson]
3852
3853 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3854 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3855 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3856 [Steve Henson]
3857
3858 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
3859 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
3860 structures constant.
3861 [Steve Henson]
3862
3863 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
3864
3865 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3866 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3867
3868 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3869 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3870 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3871 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3872 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3873 some needed definitions.
3874 [Steve Henson]
3875
3876 *) Undo Cygwin change.
3877 [Ulf Möller]
3878
3879 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3880 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3881 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3882 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
3883 [Richard Levitte]
3884
3885 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
3886
3887 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3888 server and client random values. Previously
3889 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3890 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3891
3892 This change has negligible security impact because:
3893
3894 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3895 data.
3896
3897 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3898 handshake.
3899
3900 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3901 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3902 values.
3903
3904 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
3905 to our attention.
3906
3907 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
3908
3909 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
3910 [Ulf Möller]
3911
3912 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
3913 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
3914 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
3915
3916 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
3917 [Steve Henson]
3918
3919 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
3920 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
3921 [Andy Polyakov]
3922
3923 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
3924 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
3925 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
3926
3927 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
3928 [Steve Henson]
3929
3930 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
3931 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
3932 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
3933 certificates.
3934 [Steve Henson]
3935
3936 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3937 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3938 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3939 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3940
3941 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3942 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3943 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3944 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
3945 been given)
3946 [Richard Levitte]
3947
3948 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
3949
3950 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
3951 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3952 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3953 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
3954 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
3955 [Steve Henson]
3956
3957 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
3958 [Steve Henson]
3959
3960 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
3961 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
3962
3963 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3964 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3965 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3966 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3967 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3968 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
3969 rather than being initialized to 1.
3970 [Steve Henson]
3971
3972 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
3973
3974 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3975 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3976 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3977
3978 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
3979 (CVE-2004-0112)
3980 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3981
3982 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3983 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3984 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3985 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3986 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3987 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3988 [Richard Levitte]
3989
3990 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
3991 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3992 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3993 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
3994 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
3995 for these cases.
3996 [Steve Henson]
3997
3998 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3999 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4000 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4001 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4002 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4003 [Steve Henson]
4004
4005 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4006 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4007 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4008 < 0.9.7.
4009 [Steve Henson]
4010
4011 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4012 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4013
4014 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4015 [Steve Henson]
4016
4017 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4018
4019 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4020
4021 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4022 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4023
4024 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4025
4026 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4027 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4028
4029 [Steve Henson]
4030
4031 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4032 exiting on the first error in a request.
4033 [Steve Henson]
4034
4035 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4036 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4037 specifications.
4038 [Steve Henson]
4039
4040 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4041 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4042 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4043 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4044
4045 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4046 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4047 [Richard Levitte]
4048
4049 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4050 blocks during encryption.
4051 [Richard Levitte]
4052
4053 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4054 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4055 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4056 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4057 certain size.
4058 [Steve Henson]
4059
4060 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4061 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4062 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4063 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4064 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4065 parser.
4066 [Steve Henson]
4067
4068 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4069
4070 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4071 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4072 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4073 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4074 [Bodo Moeller]
4075
4076 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4077 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4078 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4079 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4080 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4081
4082 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4083 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4084 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4085 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4086 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4087 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4088 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4089 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4090 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4091 [Bodo Moeller]
4092
4093 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4094 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4095 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4096 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4097 [Geoff Thorpe]
4098
4099 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4100 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4101 [Ulf Moeller]
4102
4103 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4104
4105 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4106 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4107 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4108 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4109 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4110
4111 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4112 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4113 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4114
4115 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4116 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4117 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4118 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4119 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4120
4121 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4122 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4123 used by default when no-err is given.
4124 [Richard Levitte]
4125
4126 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4127 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4128
4129 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4130 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4131 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4132 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4133 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4134
4135 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4136 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4137 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4138 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4139
4140 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4141
4142 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4143
4144 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4145
4146 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4147 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4148 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4149 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4150 root is omitted).
4151 [Steve Henson]
4152
4153 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4154 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4155
4156 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4157 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4158 [Steve Henson]
4159
4160 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4161 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4162 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4163 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4164 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4165
4166 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4167 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4168 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4169 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4170 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4171 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4172 followup to PR #377.
4173 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4174
4175 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4176 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4177 [Andy Polyakov]
4178
4179 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4180 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4181 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4182 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4183
4184 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4185
4186 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4187 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4188
4189 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4190 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4191 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4192 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4193 client and server.
4194 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4195 PR #377.
4196 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4197
4198 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4199 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4200 removed entirely.
4201 [Richard Levitte]
4202
4203 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4204 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4205 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4206 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4207 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4208 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4209 of libcrypto.
4210 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4211 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4212 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4213 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4214 have to be made anyway).
4215 [Richard Levitte]
4216
4217 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4218 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4219 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4220 [Steve Henson]
4221
4222 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4223 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4224 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4225 [Richard Levitte]
4226
4227 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4228 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4229 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4230
4231 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4232 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4233 edit numbers of the version.
4234 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4235
4236 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4237 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4238 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4239
4240 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4241 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4242
4243 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4244 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4245 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4246
4247 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4248 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4249
4250 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4251 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4252
4253 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4254 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4255
4256 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4257 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4258
4259 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4260 overflows.
4261 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4262
4263 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4264 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4265 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4266
4267 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4268 representations in a platform independent manner.
4269 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4270
4271 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4272 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4273 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4274
4275 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4276 indents.
4277 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4278
4279 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4280 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4281
4282 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4283 full. Fixed.
4284 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4285
4286 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4287 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4288 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4289
4290 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4291 unconditionally).
4292 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4293
4294 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4295 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4296
4297 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4298 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4299
4300 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4301 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4302
4303 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4304 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4305
4306 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4307 CBCParameter.
4308 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4309
4310 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4311 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4312
4313 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4314 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4315
4316 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4317 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4318 exploitable.
4319 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4320
4321 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4322 the 0.9.6 release series:
4323
4324 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4325 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4326 (CVE-2002-0657)
4327 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4328
4329 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4330 [Richard Levitte]
4331
4332 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4333 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4334
4335 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4336 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4337
4338 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4339 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4340 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4341 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4342
4343 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4344 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4345 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4346
4347 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4348 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4349 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4350 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4351
4352 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4353 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4354 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4355 some local tweaks:
4356
4357 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4358 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4359 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4360 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4361 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4362 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4363 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4364 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4365 done
4366
4367 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4368 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4369 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4370 [Richard Levitte]
4371
4372 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4373 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4374 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4375 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4376 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4377
4378 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4379 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4380
4381 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4382 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4383 [Richard Levitte]
4384
4385 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4386 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4387 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4388 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4389 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4390 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4391 [Steve Henson]
4392
4393 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4394 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4395 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4396 [Steve Henson]
4397
4398 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4399 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4400 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4401
4402 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4403 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4404 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4405 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4406 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4407 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4408 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4409 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4410
4411 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4412 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4413 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4414 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4415 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4416 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4417 [Steve Henson]
4418
4419 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4420 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4421 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4422 declaration has been changed from
4423 int (*cb)()
4424 into
4425 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4426 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4427 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4428 has been changed into
4429 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4430
4431 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4432 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4433 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4434
4435 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4436 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4437
4438 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4439 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4440 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4441 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4442 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4443 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4444 always load it have also been added.
4445 [Steve Henson]
4446
4447 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4448 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4449 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4450
4451 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4452
4453 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4454 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4455 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4456
4457 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4458 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4459 command line option can be used to specify an
4460 alternative file.
4461 [Steve Henson]
4462
4463 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4464 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4465 [Steve Henson]
4466
4467 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4468 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4469 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4470 [Steve Henson]
4471
4472 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4473 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4474 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4475 to work with the new engine framework.
4476 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4477
4478 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4479 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4480 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4481 to work with the new engine framework.
4482 [Richard Levitte]
4483
4484 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4485 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4486 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4487
4488 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4489 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4490
4491 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4492 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4493 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4494 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4495 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4496 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4497
4498 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4499 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4500
4501 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4502 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4503
4504 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4505 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4506 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4507 [Ben Laurie]
4508
4509 *) Add new functions
4510 ERR_peek_last_error
4511 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4512 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4513 These are similar to
4514 ERR_peek_error
4515 ERR_peek_error_line
4516 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4517 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4518 still in the error queue.
4519 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4520
4521 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4522 like:
4523 default_algorithms = ALL
4524 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4525 [Steve Henson]
4526
4527 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4528 [Steve Henson]
4529
4530 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4531 [Steve Henson]
4532
4533 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4534 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4535 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4536 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4537
4538 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4539 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4540
4541 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4542 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4543
4544 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4545 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4546 [Bodo Moeller]
4547
4548 *) New functions/macros
4549
4550 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4551 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4552 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4553 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4554
4555 to request calling a callback function
4556
4557 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4558 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4559
4560 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4561 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4562 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4563 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4564 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4565 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4566 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4567 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4568 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4569 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4570
4571 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4572 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4573 [Bodo Moeller]
4574
4575 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4576 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4577 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4578 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4579 the configuration scripts.
4580
4581 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4582 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4583 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4584
4585 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4586 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4587
4588 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4589 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4590 when reusing an existing buffer.
4591 [Bodo Moeller]
4592
4593 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4594 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4595 [Steve Henson]
4596
4597 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4598 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4599 [Ben Laurie]
4600
4601 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4602 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4603 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4604 has the same effect.
4605 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4606
4607 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4608 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4609 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4610 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4611 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4612 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4613 exception.
4614
4615 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4616 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4617 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4618 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4619
4620 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4621 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4622 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4623 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4624
4625 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4626 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4627 won't work.
4628
4629 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4630 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4631 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4632 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4633 default), and then completely removed.
4634 [Richard Levitte]
4635
4636 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4637 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4638 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4639 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4640 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4641 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4642 particular extension is supported.
4643 [Steve Henson]
4644
4645 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4646 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4647 [Steve Henson]
4648
4649 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4650 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4651 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4652 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4653 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4654 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4655 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4656 requires the destination to be valid.
4657
4658 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4659 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4660 [Steve Henson]
4661
4662 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4663 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4664 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4665 [Bodo Moeller]
4666
4667 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4668 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4669
4670 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4671 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4672 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4673 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4674 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4675 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4676 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4677 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4678 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4679 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4680 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4681 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4682 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4683 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4684 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4685 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4686 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4687 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4688 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4689 the new code.
4690 [Geoff Thorpe]
4691
4692 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4693 [Steve Henson]
4694
4695 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4696 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4697 become part of libeay.num as well.
4698 [Richard Levitte]
4699
4700 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4701 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4702 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4703 false once a handshake has been completed.
4704 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4705 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4706 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4707 client has followed the request.)
4708 [Bodo Moeller]
4709
4710 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4711 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4712 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4713 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4714
4715 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4716 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4717 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4718 [Bodo Moeller]
4719
4720 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4721 [Steve Henson]
4722
4723 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4724 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4725 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4726 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4727
4728 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4729 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4730 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4731
4732 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4733 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4734 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4735 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4736 [Geoff Thorpe]
4737
4738 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4739 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4740 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4741 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4742 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4743 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4744 [Geoff Thorpe]
4745
4746 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4747 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4748 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4749 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4750 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4751 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4752 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4753 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4754 [Geoff Thorpe]
4755
4756 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4757 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4758 [Geoff Thorpe]
4759
4760 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4761 [Ben Laurie]
4762
4763 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4764 md_data void pointer.
4765 [Ben Laurie]
4766
4767 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4768 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4769 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4770 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4771 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4772 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4773 [Ben Laurie]
4774
4775 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4776 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4777 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4778 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4779 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4780 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4781 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4782 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4783 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4784 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4785 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4786 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4787 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4788 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4789 rather than letting it slide.
4790
4791 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4792 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4793 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4794 [Geoff Thorpe]
4795
4796 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4797 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4798 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4799 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4800 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4801 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4802 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4803 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4804 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4805 [Geoff Thorpe]
4806
4807 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4808 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4809 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4810 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4811 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
4812
4813 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
4814 [Geoff Thorpe]
4815
4816 *) Add EVP test program.
4817 [Ben Laurie]
4818
4819 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
4820 [Ben Laurie]
4821
4822 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
4823 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4824 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4825 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4826 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4827 [Steve Henson]
4828
4829 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
4830 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
4831 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
4832 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4833 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4834 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
4835 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
4836
4837 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
4838 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4839 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
4840 Usage example:
4841
4842 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4843
4844 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4845 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4846 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4847 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4848 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
4849
4850 [Ben Laurie]
4851
4852 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
4853 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4854 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4855 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
4856 anyway): E.g.,
4857
4858 des_key_schedule ks;
4859
4860 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4861 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4862
4863 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
4864 [Ben Laurie]
4865
4866 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
4867 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4868 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4869 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4870 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4871 functions prevents this.
4872 [Steve Henson]
4873
4874 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
4875 [Ben Laurie]
4876
4877 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
4878 correct _ecb suffix.
4879 [Ben Laurie]
4880
4881 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
4882 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4883 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4884 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4885 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
4886 [Steve Henson]
4887
4888 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
4889 [Richard Levitte]
4890
4891 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
4892 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4893 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4894 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4895
4896 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4897 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4898
4899 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
4900 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4901 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
4902 via Richard Levitte]
4903
4904 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
4905 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
4906 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
4907 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
4908 [Geoff Thorpe]
4909
4910 *) Speed up EVP routines.
4911 Before:
4912 encrypt
4913 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
4914 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
4915 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

4920 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
4921 After:

4923 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
4924 decrypt
4925 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
4926 [Ben Laurie]
4927
4928 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
4929 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
4930
4931 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
4932 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
4933 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
4934 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
4935 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
4936 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
4937 [Steve Henson]
4938
4939 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
4940 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
4941 [Richard Levitte]
4942
4943 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
4944 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
4945 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
4946 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
4947
4948 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
4949 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
4950 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
4951 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
4952 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
4953 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
4954 callback.
4955 [Richard Levitte]
4956
4957 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
4958 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
4959 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
4960 and interrupts/cancellations.
4961 [Richard Levitte]
4962
4963 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
4964 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
4965 [Steve Henson]
4966
4967 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
4968 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
4969 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
4970
4971 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
4972 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
4973 kind of callback.
4974 [Richard Levitte]
4975
4976 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
4977 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
4978 than this minimum value is recommended.
4979 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4980
4981 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
4982 that are easily reachable.
4983 [Richard Levitte]
4984
4985 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
4986 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
4987
4988 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
4989
4990 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
4991 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
4992 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
4993 needed for static libraries under Win32.
4994 [Steve Henson]
4995
4996 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
4997 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4998 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4999 [Steve Henson]
5000
5001 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5002 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5003 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5004 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5005 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5006 internally such as S/MIME.
5007
5008 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5009 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5010 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5011
5012 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5013 applications.
5014 [Steve Henson]
5015
5016 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5017 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5018 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5019 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5020
5021 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5022
5023 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5024
5025 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5026 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5027 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5028 handling.
5029 [Steve Henson]
5030
5031 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5032 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5033 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5034 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5035 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5036 a window system and the like.
5037 [Richard Levitte]
5038
5039 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5040 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5041 [Geoff]
5042
5043 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5044 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5045 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5046 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5047 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5048 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5049 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5050 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5051 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5052 ENGINE structure.
5053 [Geoff]
5054
5055 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5056 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5057 tag cache.
5058 [Steve Henson]
5059
5060 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5061 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5062 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5063 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5064 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5065 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5066 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5067 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5068 [Geoff]
5069
5070 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5071 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5072 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5073 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5074 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5075 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5076 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5077 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5078 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5079 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5080 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5081 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5082 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5083 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5084 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5085 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5086 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5087 [Geoff]
5088
5089 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5090 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5091 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5092 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5093 internal engine_int.h header.
5094 [Geoff]
5095
5096 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5097 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5098 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5099 modify their own ones).
5100 [Geoff]
5101
5102 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5103 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5104 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5105 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5106 later on via ctrl() commands.
5107 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5108 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5109 structural references.
5110 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5111 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5112 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5113 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5114 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5115 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5116 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5117 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5118 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5119 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5120 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5121 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5122 [Geoff]
5123
5124 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5125 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5126 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5127 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5128 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5129 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5130 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5131 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5132 [Bodo Moeller]
5133
5134 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5135 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5136 [Steve Henson]
5137
5138 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5139 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5140 [Steve Henson]
5141
5142 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5143 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5144 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5145 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5146 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5147 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5148 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5149 [Steve Henson]
5150
5151 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5152 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5153 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5154 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5155 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5156
5157 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5158 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5159 generator).
5160 [Bodo Moeller]
5161
5162 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5163
5164 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5165 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5166 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5167
5168 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5169 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5170
5171 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5172 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5173 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5174
5175 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5176 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5177
5178 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5179 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5180
5181 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5182
5183 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5184 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5185 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5186 [Bodo Moeller]
5187
5188 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5189 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5190 [Richard Levitte]
5191
5192 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5193 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5194 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5195 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5196 is 40 of more characters long.
5197 [Steve Henson]
5198
5199 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5200 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5201 pointers.
5202 [Steve Henson]
5203
5204 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5205 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5206 [Bodo Moeller]
5207
5208 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5209 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5210 might.
5211 [Steve Henson]
5212
5213 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5214
5215 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5216 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5217
5218 ASN1 error codes
5219 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5220 ...
5221 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5222 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5223 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5224 ...
5225 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5226 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5227
5228 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5229 [Bodo Moeller]
5230
5231 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5232 suffices.
5233 [Bodo Moeller]
5234
5235 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5236 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5237 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5238 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5239 and
5240 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5241
5242 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5243 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5244
5245 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5246 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5247 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5248 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5249 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5250 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5251
5252 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5253 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5254
5255 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5256 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5257
5258 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5259 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5260
5261 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5262 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5263 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5264 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5265
5266 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5267 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5268
5269 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5270 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5271
5272 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5273 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5274 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5275 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5276 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5277 [Richard Levitte]
5278
5279 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5280 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5281 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5282 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5283 [Steve Henson]
5284
5285 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5286 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5287 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5288 trust settings.
5289 [Steve Henson]
5290
5291 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5292 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5293 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5294 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5295 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5296 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5297 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5298 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5299 ocsp utility.
5300 [Steve Henson]
5301
5302 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5303 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5304 [Steve Henson]
5305
5306 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5307 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5308 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5309 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5310 [Steve Henson]
5311
5312 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5313 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5314 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5315 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5316 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5317 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5318 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5319 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5320 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5321 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5322 [Steve Henson]
5323
5324 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5325 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5326 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5327 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5328 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5329 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5330 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5331 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5332
5333 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5334 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5335 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5336 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5337 [Richard Levitte]
5338
5339 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5340 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5341 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5342 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5343 opensslconf.h.
5344 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5345 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5346 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5347 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5348 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5349 what is available.
5350 [Richard Levitte]
5351
5352 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5353 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5354 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5355 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5356 auto incremented.
5357 [Steve Henson]
5358
5359 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5360 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5361 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5362 [Steve Henson]
5363
5364 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5365 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5366 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5367 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5368 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5369 [Steve Henson]
5370
5371 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5372 [Steve Henson]
5373
5374 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5375 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5376 option to ocsp utility.
5377 [Steve Henson]
5378
5379 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5380 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5381 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5382 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5383 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5384 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5385 the request is nonce-less.
5386 [Steve Henson]
5387
5388 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5389 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5390 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5391 [Bodo Moeller]
5392
5393 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5394 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5395 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5396 [Steve Henson]
5397
5398 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5399 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5400 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5401 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5402 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5403 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5404
5405 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5406 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5407 appear to exist.
5408 [Steve Henson]
5409
5410 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5411 additional certificates supplied.
5412 [Steve Henson]
5413
5414 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5415 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5416 signature against.
5417 [Richard Levitte]
5418
5419 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5420 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5421 AES OIDs.
5422
5423 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5424 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5425 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5426 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5427 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5428 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5429 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5430 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5431 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5432
5433 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5434 request to response.
5435 [Steve Henson]
5436
5437 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5438 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5439 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5440 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5441 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5442 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5443 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5444 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5445 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5446 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5447 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5448 [Steve Henson]
5449
5450 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5451 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5452 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5453 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5454 [Steve Henson]
5455
5456 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5457 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5458
5459 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5460 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5461 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5462 [Steve Henson]
5463
5464 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5465 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5466 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5467 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5468 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5469
5470 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5471 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5472 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5473 [Steve Henson]
5474
5475 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5476 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5477 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5478 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5479 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5480 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5481 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5482 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5483
5484 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5485 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5486 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5487 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5488 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5489 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5490 [Steve Henson]
5491
5492 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5493 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5494 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5495 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5496 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5497 printout format cleaned up.
5498 [Steve Henson]
5499
5500 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5501 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5502 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5503 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5504 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5505 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5506 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5507 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5508 [Steve Henson]
5509
5510 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5511 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5512 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5513 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5514 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5515 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5516 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5517 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5518 [Steve Henson]
5519
5520 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5521 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5522 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5523 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5524 section to use.
5525 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5526
5527 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5528 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5529 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5530 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5531 [Steve Henson]
5532
5533 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5534 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5535 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5536 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5537 in the index file.
5538 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5539
5540 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5541 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5542 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5543 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5544
5545 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5546 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5547
5548 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5549 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5550 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5551 [Steve Henson]
5552
5553 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5554 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5555 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5556 [Bodo Moeller]
5557
5558 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5559 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5560 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5561 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5562 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5563 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5564 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5565 functions are provided:
5566
5567 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5568 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5569 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5570 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5571
5572 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5573 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5574 extended allocation function is enabled.
5575 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5576 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5577 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5578
5579 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5580 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5581 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5582 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5583 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5584 [Geoff Thorpe]
5585
5586 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5587 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5588 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5589 be queried.
5590 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5591 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5592 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5593 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5594
5595 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5596 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5597 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5598 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5599 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5600 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5601 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5602 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5603 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5604 [Richard Levitte]
5605
5606 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5607 provide utility functions which an application needing
5608 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5609 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5610 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5611
5612 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5613 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5614 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5615 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5616 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5617 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5618 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5619 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5620 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5621
5622 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5623 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5624 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5625 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5626 [Steve Henson]
5627
5628 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5629 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5630 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5631 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5632 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5633 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5634 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5635 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5636 will be added elsewhere.
5637 [Steve Henson]
5638
5639 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5640 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5641 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5642 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5643 [Steve Henson]
5644
5645 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5646 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5647 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5648 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5649 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5650 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5651 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5652 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5653 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5654 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5655 to produce the required SET OF.
5656 [Steve Henson]
5657
5658 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5659 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5660 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5661 [Richard Levitte]
5662
5663 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5664 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5665 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5666 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5667 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5668 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5669 [Steve Henson]
5670
5671 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5672 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5673 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5674 [Steve Henson]
5675
5676 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5677 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5678 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5679 [Richard Levitte]
5680
5681 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5682 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5683 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5684 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5685 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5686 [Steve Henson]
5687
5688 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5689 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5690 [Steve Henson]
5691
5692 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5693 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5694 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5695 certifcates and CRLs.
5696 [Steve Henson]
5697
5698 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5699 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5700 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5701 [Steve Henson]
5702
5703 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5704 entries for variables.
5705 [Steve Henson]
5706
5707 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5708 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5709 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5710 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5711 [Bodo Moeller]
5712
5713 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5714 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5715 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5716 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5717 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5718 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5719 [Bodo Moeller]
5720
5721 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5722 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5723
5724 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5725 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5726 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5727 [Steve Henson]
5728
5729 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5730 print routines.
5731 [Steve Henson]
5732
5733 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5734 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5735 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5736 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5737 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5738 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5739 [Steve Henson]
5740
5741 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5742 [Steve Henson]
5743
5744 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5745 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5746 for now but they will eventually go away.
5747 [Steve Henson]
5748
5749 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5750 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5751 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5752 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5753 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5754 has also been converted to the new form.
5755 [Steve Henson]
5756
5757 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5758 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5759 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5760 for negative moduli.
5761 [Bodo Moeller]
5762
5763 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5764 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5765 [Bodo Moeller]
5766
5767 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5768 set.
5769 [Bodo Moeller]
5770
5771 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5772 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5773 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5774 type-specific callbacks.
5775 [Geoff Thorpe]
5776
5777 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5778 RFC 2712.
5779 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5780 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5781
5782 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5783 in sections depending on the subject.
5784 [Richard Levitte]
5785
5786 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5787 Windows.
5788 [Richard Levitte]
5789
5790 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5791 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5792 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5793 be handled deterministically).
5794 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5795
5796 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5797 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5798 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5799 [Bodo Moeller]
5800
5801 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5802 [Bodo Moeller]
5803
5804 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5805 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5806 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5807 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5808 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5809 [Bodo Moeller]
5810
5811 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
5812 sign of the number in question.
5813
5814 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5815
5816 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5817 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5818 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5819 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5820 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
5821 [Bodo Moeller]
5822
5823 *) New function BN_swap.
5824 [Bodo Moeller]
5825
5826 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
5827 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
5828 results on negative inputs.
5829 [Bodo Moeller]
5830
5831 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
5832 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
5833 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
5834 [Bodo Moeller]
5835
5836 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
5837 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
5838 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
5839 and add new functions:
5840
5841 BN_nnmod
5842 BN_mod_sqr
5843 BN_mod_add
5844 BN_mod_add_quick
5845 BN_mod_sub
5846 BN_mod_sub_quick
5847 BN_mod_lshift1
5848 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
5849 BN_mod_lshift
5850 BN_mod_lshift_quick
5851
5852 These functions always generate non-negative results.
5853
5854 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
5855 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
5856
5857 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
5858 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
5859 be reduced modulo m.
5860 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5861
5862 #if 0
5863 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
5864 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5865 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5866
5867 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5868 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5869 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5870 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5871 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5872 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5873 differing sizes.
5874 [Richard Levitte]
5875 #endif
5876
5877 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
5878 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5879 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5880 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5881 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5882
5883 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5884 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5885 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5886 cause any problems.
5887 [Bodo Moeller]
5888
5889 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
5890 [Richard Levitte]
5891
5892 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
5893 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5894 [Richard Levitte]
5895
5896 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
5897 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5898 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5899 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5900 time)
5901 [Richard Levitte]
5902
5903 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
5904 [Richard Levitte]
5905
5906 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
5907 [Richard Levitte]
5908
5909 *) Add the following functions:
5910
5911 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5912 ENGINE_load_chil()
5913 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5914 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5915 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5916
5917 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5918 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5919 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5920 libraries unless it's really needed.
5921
5922 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5923 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5924 declarations (they differed!).
5925 [Richard Levitte]
5926
5927 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
5928 [Richard Levitte]
5929
5930 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
5931 [Richard Levitte]
5932
5933 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
5934 [Bodo Moeller]
5935
5936 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
5937 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5938 [Richard Levitte]
5939
5940 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
5941 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
5942 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5943
5944 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
5945 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5946 [Richard Levitte]
5947
5948 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
5949 [Richard Levitte]
5950
5951 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
5952 [Richard Levitte]
5953
5954 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
5955 [Ben Laurie]
5956
5957 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
5958 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5959 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5960
5961 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
5962 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5963 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5964 different shared library filenames on each system.
5965 [Geoff Thorpe]
5966
5967 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
5968 [Richard Levitte]
5969
5970 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
5971 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5972 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5973 of two sections.
5974 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5975
5976 *) NCONF changes.
5977 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5978 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5979 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5980 binary backward compatibility.
5981 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5982 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5983 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5984 LDAP server.
5985 [Richard Levitte]
5986
5987 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
5988 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5989 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5990 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5991 this case.
5992 [Steve Henson]
5993
5994 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
5995 [Ben Laurie]
5996
5997 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
5998 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5999 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6000 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6001 set.
6002 [Steve Henson]
6003
6004 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6005 [Richard Levitte]
6006
6007 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6008
6009 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6010 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6011 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6012
6013 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6014
6015 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6016
6017 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6018 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6019 [Steve Henson]
6020
6021 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6022
6023 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6024
6025 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6026 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6027
6028 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6029 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6030
6031 [Steve Henson]
6032
6033 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6034 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6035 specifications.
6036 [Steve Henson]
6037
6038 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6039 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6040 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6041 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6042
6043 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6044 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6045 [Richard Levitte]
6046
6047 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6048
6049 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6050 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6051 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6052 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6053 [Bodo Moeller]
6054
6055 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6056 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6057 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6058 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6059 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6060
6061 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6062 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6063 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6064 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6065 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6066 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6067 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6068 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6069 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6070 [Bodo Moeller]
6071
6072 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6073
6074 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6075 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6076 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6077 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6078 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6079
6080 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6081 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6082 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6083
6084 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6085
6086 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6087 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6088 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6089 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6090 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6091 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6092 [Geoff Thorpe]
6093
6094 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6095 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6096 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6097 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6098 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6099 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6100
6101 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6102 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6103 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6104
6105 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6106 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6107 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6108 EVP_cleanup().
6109 [Richard Levitte]
6110
6111 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6112 being properly terminated.
6113 [Richard Levitte]
6114
6115 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6116 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6117 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6118 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6119
6120 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6121 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6122 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6123 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6124 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6125 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6126 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6127 change.
6128 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6129
6130 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6131 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6132 [Bodo Moeller]
6133
6134 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6135 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6136 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6137 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6138 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6139 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6140 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6141 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6142
6143 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6144 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6145 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6146 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6147 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6148
6149 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6150 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6151 [Steve Henson]
6152
6153 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6154
6155 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6156 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6157 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6158
6159 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6160
6161 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6162 and get fix the header length calculation.
6163 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6164 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6165 Steve Henson]
6166
6167 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6168 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6169 assertions could call abort()).
6170 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6171
6172 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6173
6174 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6175 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6176 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6177 supplied buffer.
6178 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6179
6180 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6181 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6182 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6183 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6184
6185 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6186 [Nils Larsch]
6187
6188 *) New option
6189 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6190 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6191 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6192
6193 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6194 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6195 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6196 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6197 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6198 applications.
6199 [Bodo Moeller]
6200
6201 *) Changes in security patch:
6202
6203 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6204 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6205 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6206 F30602-01-2-0537.
6207
6208 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6209 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6210 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6211 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6212 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6213
6214 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6215 happen in practice.
6216 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6217
6218 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6219 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6220 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6221
6222 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6223 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6224 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6225
6226 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6227 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6228 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6229
6230 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6231
6232 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6233 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6234 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6235
6236 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6237 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6238
6239 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6240 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6241 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6242 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6243 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6244 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6245 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6246
6247 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6248 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6249 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6250 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6251 [Bodo Moeller]
6252
6253 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6254 [Bodo Moeller]
6255
6256 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6257 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6258 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6259 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6260 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6261 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6262
6263 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6264 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6265 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6266 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6267 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6268 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6269
6270 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6271 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6272 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6273 BN_generate_prime().)
6274
6275 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6276 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6277 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6278 better.
6279 [Bodo Moeller]
6280
6281 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6282 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6283 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6284
6285 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6286 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6287 when using non-blocking I/O.
6288 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6289
6290 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6291 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6292
6293 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6294 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6295 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6296
6297 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6298 configuration for the versions before that.
6299 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6300
6301 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6302 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6303 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6304 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6305 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6306
6307 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6308 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6309 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6310 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6311
6312 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6313 value is 0.
6314 [Richard Levitte]
6315
6316 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6317 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6318 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6319
6320 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6321 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6322
6323 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6324 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6325 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6326 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6327 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6328 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6329 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6330 session cache.
6331
6332 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6333 using a local variable.
6334 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6335
6336 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6337 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6338 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6339
6340 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6341 [Richard Levitte]
6342
6343 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6344 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6345
6346 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6347 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6348 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6349
6350 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6351
6352 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6353 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6354 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6355 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6356 [Bodo Moeller]
6357
6358 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6359 present.
6360 [Steve Henson]
6361
6362 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6363 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6364 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6365 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6366 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6367
6368 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6369 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6370 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6371
6372 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6373 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6374 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6375
6376 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6377 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6378 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6379 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6380
6381 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6382 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6383 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6384 modules).
6385 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6386
6387 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6388 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6389 from 0.9.7.
6390 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6391
6392 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6393 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6394 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6395 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6396
6397 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6398 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6399 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6400 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6401
6402 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6403 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6404
6405 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6406 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6407 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6408 [Bodo Moeller]
6409
6410 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6411 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6412 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6413 become invalid.
6414 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6415
6416 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6417 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6418 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6419 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6420 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6421 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6422 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6423 [Bodo Moeller]
6424
6425 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6426 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6427 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6428 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6429
6430 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6431 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6432 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6433 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6434 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6435 the client will at least see that alert.
6436 [Bodo Moeller]
6437
6438 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6439 correctly.
6440 [Bodo Moeller]
6441
6442 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6443 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6444 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6445
6446 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6447 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6448 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6449 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6450 HelloRequest.
6451
6452 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6453 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6454 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6455
6456 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6457 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6458 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6459 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6460 may leak via logfiles.)
6461
6462 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6463 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6464 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6465 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6466 the legal range.
6467 [Bodo Moeller]
6468
6469 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6470 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6471 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6472
6473 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6474 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6475 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6476 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6477 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6478 [Bodo Moeller]
6479
6480 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6481 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6482
6483 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6484 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6485 followed by modular reduction.
6486 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6487
6488 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6489 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6490 [Bodo Moeller]
6491
6492 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6493 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6494 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6495 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6496 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6497
6498 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6499 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6500
6501 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6502 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6503 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6504
6505 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6506 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6507 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6508 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6509 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6510 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6511 automatically.
6512 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6513
6514 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6515 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6516 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6517 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6518 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6519
6520 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6521 [Andy Polyakov]
6522
6523 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6524 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6525 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6526 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6527 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6528 to allow the necessary settings.
6529 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6530
6531 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6532 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6533 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6534 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6535 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6536
6537 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6538 dh->length and always used
6539
6540 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6541
6542 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6543 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6544 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6545 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6546 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6547 dh->length.
6548
6549 So switch back to
6550
6551 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6552
6553 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6554 otherwise.
6555 [Bodo Moeller]
6556
6557 *) In
6558
6559 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6560 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6561 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6562 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6563
6564 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6565 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6566 always reject numbers >= n.
6567 [Bodo Moeller]
6568
6569 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6570 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6571 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6572 variable) is not atomic.
6573 [Bodo Moeller]
6574
6575 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6576 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6577 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6578 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6579
6580 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6581 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6582
6583 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6584 little-endian MIPS.
6585 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6586
6587 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6588 [Richard Levitte]
6589
6590 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6591
6592 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6593 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6594 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6595 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6596 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6597 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6598 to traverse all of 'state'.
6599
6600 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6601 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6602 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6603
6604 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6605 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6606
6607 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6608 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6609 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6610 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6611 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6612 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6613 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6614 further strengthens the PRNG.
6615 [Bodo Moeller]
6616
6617 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6618 [Andy Polyakov]
6619
6620 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6621 an error message in this case.
6622 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6623
6624 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6625 [Steve Henson]
6626
6627 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6628 positive and less than q.
6629 [Bodo Moeller]
6630
6631 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6632 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6633 that itself.
6634 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6635
6636 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6637 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6638 [Bodo Moeller]
6639
6640 *) Fix OAEP check.
6641 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6642
6643 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6644 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6645 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6646 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6647 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6648 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6649 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6650 paper.)
6651
6652 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6653 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6654 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6655 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6656
6657 Both problems are now fixed.
6658 [Bodo Moeller]
6659
6660 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6661 (previously it was 1024).
6662 [Bodo Moeller]
6663
6664 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6665 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6666 [Steve Henson]
6667
6668 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6669 [Steve Henson]
6670
6671 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6672 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6673 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6674 [Steve Henson]
6675
6676 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6677 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6678 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6679 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6680 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6681 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6682 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6683 environment variables.
6684
6685 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6686 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6687 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6688 [Bodo Moeller]
6689
6690 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6691 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6692 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6693 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6694 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6695 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6696 [Bodo Moeller]
6697
6698 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6699 versions of 'test'.
6700 [Bodo Moeller]
6701
6702 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6703
6704 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6705 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6706
6707 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6708 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6709 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6710 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6711 CygWin.
6712 [Richard Levitte]
6713
6714 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6715 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6716 amount of data available.
6717 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6718 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6719
6720 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6721 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6722 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6723 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6724 [Bodo Moeller]
6725
6726 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6727 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6728 and UnixWare.
6729 [Richard Levitte]
6730
6731 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6732 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6733 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6734 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6735 [Ulf Moeller]
6736
6737 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6738 [Andy Polyakov]
6739
6740 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6741 [Richard Levitte]
6742
6743 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6744 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6745 [Steve Henson]
6746 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6747
6748 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6749 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6750 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6751 (but broken) behaviour.
6752 [Steve Henson]
6753
6754 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6755 it when found.
6756 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6757
6758 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6759 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6760 [Bodo Moeller]
6761
6762 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6763 did not exist.
6764 [Bodo Moeller]
6765
6766 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6767 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6768
6769 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6770 [Richard Levitte]
6771
6772 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6773 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6774 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6775
6776 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6777 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6778 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6779 [Steve Henson]
6780
6781 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6782 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6783 [Ulf Moeller]
6784
6785 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6786 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6787
6788 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6789
6790 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6791
6792 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6793 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6794 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6795 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6796 [Bodo Moeller]
6797
6798 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6799 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6800
6801 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6802 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6803 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6804
6805 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6806 was empty.
6807 [Steve Henson]
6808 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6809
6810 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6811 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6812 but the code is actually correct.
6813 [Steve Henson]
6814
6815 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6816 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6817 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6818 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6819 and leaves the highest bit random.
6820 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6821
6822 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6823 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6824 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6825 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6826 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6827 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6828 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6829 [Bodo Moeller]
6830
6831 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6832 [Ulf Moeller]
6833
6834 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6835 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6836 [Steve Henson]
6837
6838 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6839 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6840 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6841 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6842 headers.
6843 [Richard Levitte]
6844
6845 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6846 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6847 and break the signature.
6848 [Steve Henson]
6849 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6850
6851 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6852 DH ciphersuites.
6853 [Steve Henson]
6854
6855 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6856 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6857 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6858 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6859 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6860 [Bodo Moeller]
6861
6862 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6863 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6864
6865 *) ./config script fixes.
6866 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6867
6868 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6869 [Bodo Moeller]
6870
6871 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6872 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6873 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6874 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6875 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6876
6877 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6878 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6879 [Bodo Moeller]
6880
6881 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6882 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6883 [Steve Henson]
6884
6885 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6886 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6887 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6888 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6889
6890 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6891 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6892
6893 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6894 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6895 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6896 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6897 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6898
6899 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6900 [Bodo Moeller]
6901
6902 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6903 [Ulf Möller]
6904
6905 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6906 [Ulf Möller]
6907
6908 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6909 [Bodo Moeller]
6910
6911 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6912 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6913 [Bodo Moeller]
6914
6915 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6916 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6917 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6918 result of the server certificate verification.)
6919 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6920
6921 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6922 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6923 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6924 [Bodo Moeller]
6925
6926 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6927 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6928 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6929 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6930 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6931 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6932 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6933 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6934 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6935 [Bodo Moeller]
6936
6937 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6938 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6939 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6940 happening the other way round.
6941 [Geoff Thorpe]
6942
6943 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6944 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6945 [Bodo Moeller]
6946
6947 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6948 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6949 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6950 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6951 [Richard Levitte]
6952
6953 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6954 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6955
6956 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6957
6958 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6959 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6960 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6961 that.
6962
6963 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6964
6965 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6966
6967 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6968 static ones.
6969 [Richard Levitte]
6970
6971 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6972
6973 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6974 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6975 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6976 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6977 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6978
6979 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6980 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6981 matter what.
6982 [Richard Levitte]
6983
6984 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6985 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6986
6987 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
6988
6989 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6990 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6991 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6992 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6993 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
6994 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
6995 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6996 by the Finished messages.
6997 [Bodo Moeller]
6998
6999 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7000 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7001
7002 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7003 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7004 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7005 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7006 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7007 appropriately.
7008 [Steve Henson]
7009
7010 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7011 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7012 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7013 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7014 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7015 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7016 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7017 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7018 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7019 together.
7020 [Steve Henson]
7021
7022 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7023 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7024 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7025 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7026
7027 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7028 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7029 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7030 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7031 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7032 the answer.
7033
7034 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7035 been tested well enough.
7036 [Richard Levitte]
7037
7038 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7039 it can return incorrect results.
7040 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7041 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7042 [Bodo Moeller]
7043
7044 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7045 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7046 include zero length content when signing messages.
7047 [Steve Henson]
7048
7049 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7050 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7051 [Bodo Möller]
7052
7053 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7054 [Richard Levitte]
7055
7056 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7057 wrong sign.
7058 [Ulf Möller]
7059
7060 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7061 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7062 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7063 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7064 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7065 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7066 [Richard Levitte]
7067
7068 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7069 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7070
7071 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7072 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7073
7074 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7075 random number < q in the DSA library.
7076 [Ulf Möller]
7077
7078 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7079 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7080 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7081 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7082 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7083 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7084 just makes things more complicated.)
7085 [Bodo Moeller]
7086
7087 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7088 from EGD.
7089 [Ben Laurie]
7090
7091 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7092 work better on such systems.
7093 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7094
7095 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7096 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7097 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7098 [Steve Henson]
7099
7100 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7101 if there was more than one signature.
7102 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7103
7104 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7105 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7106 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7107 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7108 [Richard Levitte]
7109
7110 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7111 rather than always using the current time.
7112 [Steve Henson]
7113
7114 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7115 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7116 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7117 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7118 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7119 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7120
7121 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7122 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7123
7124 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7125
7126 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7127 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7128 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7129 the same hash value.
7130
7131 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7132 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7133 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7134 with X509_STORE internally.
7135
7136 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7137 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7138
7139 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7140 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7141 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7142 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7143 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7144 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7145 entirely (maybe later...).
7146
7147 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7148
7149 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7150 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7151 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7152 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7153 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7154 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7155 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7156 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7157
7158 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7159 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7160
7161 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7162 to customise the verify behaviour.
7163 [Steve Henson]
7164
7165 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7166 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7167 [Steve Henson]
7168
7169 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7170 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7171 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7172 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7173 request is improperly encoded.
7174 [Steve Henson]
7175
7176 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7177 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7178 BIO_write(b, ...).
7179
7180 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7181 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7182
7183 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7184 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7185 words set to zero.)
7186 [Bodo Moeller]
7187
7188 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7189 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7190 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7191 [Bodo Moeller]
7192
7193 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7194 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7195 BIO/fp routines also added.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
7198 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7199 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7200
7201 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7202 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7203 demos/state_machine.
7204 [Ben Laurie]
7205
7206 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7207 generation and verification.
7208 [Steve Henson]
7209
7210 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7211 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7212 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7213 encode and decode it manually.
7214 [Steve Henson]
7215
7216 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7217 compile under VC++.
7218 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7219
7220 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7221 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7222 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7223 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7224
7225 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7226 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7227 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7228 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7229 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7230 [Steve Henson]
7231
7232 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7233 [Richard Levitte]
7234
7235 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7236 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7237 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7238
7239 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7240 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7241 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7242 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7243 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7244 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7245 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7246 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7247
7248 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7249 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7250
7251 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7252
7253 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7254 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7255 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7256
7257 [Richard Levitte]
7258
7259 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7260 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7261 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7262 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7263 [Richard Levitte]
7264
7265 *) MD4 implemented.
7266 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7267
7268 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7269 [Richard Levitte]
7270
7271 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7272 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7273 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7274 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7275 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7276 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7277 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7278 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7279 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7280 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7281 short or long names are found.
7282 [Steve Henson]
7283
7284 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7285 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7286
7287 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7288 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7289 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7290 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7291
7292 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7293 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7294 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7295 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7296 [Bodo Moeller]
7297
7298 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7299 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7300 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7301 [Richard Levitte]
7302
7303 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7304 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7305 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7306 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7307 to allow the various flags to be set.
7308 [Steve Henson]
7309
7310 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7311 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7312 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7313 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7314 dates to be checked.
7315 [Steve Henson]
7316
7317 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7318 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7319 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7320 [Steve Henson]
7321
7322 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7323 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7324 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7325 [Steve Henson]
7326
7327 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7328 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7329 [Bodo Moeller]
7330
7331 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7332 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7333 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7334 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7335 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7336 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7337 [Richard Levitte]
7338
7339 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7340 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7341 Random Numbers.
7342 [Ulf Möller]
7343
7344 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7345 DSA key.
7346 [Steve Henson]
7347
7348 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7349 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7350 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7351 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7352 form signing output easier to verify.
7353 [Steve Henson]
7354
7355 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7356 [Steve Henson]
7357
7358 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7359 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7360 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7361 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7362 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7363 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7364 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7365 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7366 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7367 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7368 [Steve Henson]
7369
7370 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7371
7372 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7373 the syntax given in objects.README.
7374 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7375 obj_mac.h.
7376 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7377 obj_mac.h.
7378
7379 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7380 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7381 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7382 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7383 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7384 consistent name changes.
7385 [Richard Levitte]
7386
7387 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7388 [Bodo Moeller]
7389
7390 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7391 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7392 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7393 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7394 [Richard Levitte]
7395
7396 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7397 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7398 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7399 of safestack.h .
7400 [Steve Henson]
7401
7402 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7403 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7404 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7405 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7406 [Steve Henson]
7407
7408 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7409 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7410 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7411 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7412 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7413 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7414 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7415 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7416 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7417 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7418 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7419 [Steve Henson]
7420
7421 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7422 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7423 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7424 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7425 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7426 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7427 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7428 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7429 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7430 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7431 [Steve Henson]
7432
7433 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7434 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7435 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7436 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7437
7438 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7439 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7440 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7441 omit any duplicate addresses.
7442 [Steve Henson]
7443
7444 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7445 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7446 [Bodo Moeller]
7447
7448 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7449 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7450 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7451 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7452 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7453 [Bodo Moeller]
7454
7455 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7456 software:
7457 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7458 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7459 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7460 Free => OPENSSL_free
7461 [Richard Levitte]
7462
7463 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7464 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7465 [Bodo Moeller]
7466
7467 *) CygWin32 support.
7468 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7469
7470 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7471 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7472 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7473 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7474 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7475 approach.
7476 [Geoff Thorpe]
7477
7478 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7479 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7480 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7481 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7482 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7483 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7484 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7485 [Geoff Thorpe]
7486
7487 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7488 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7489 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7490 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7491 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7492 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7493 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7494 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7495 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7496 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7497 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7498 [Bodo Moeller]
7499
7500 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7501 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7502 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7503 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7504 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7505
7506 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7507 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7508 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7509 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7510 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7511
7512 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7513 ciphers.
7514
7515 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7516 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7517 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7518 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7519
7520 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7521
7522 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7523 of macros.
7524
7525 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7526 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7527 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7528 flags.
7529
7530 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7531 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7532 any installed hardware versions can.
7533 [Steve Henson]
7534
7535 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7536 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7537 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7538 number.
7539 [Bodo Moeller]
7540
7541 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7542 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7543 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7544 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7545 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7546
7547 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7548 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7549 [Steve Henson]
7550
7551 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7552 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7553 [Richard Levitte]
7554
7555 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7556 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7557 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7558 features.
7559 [Steve Henson]
7560
7561 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7562 [Ulf Möller]
7563
7564 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7565 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7566 but no ssl client purpose.
7567 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7568
7569 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7570 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7571 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7572 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7573 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7574 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7575 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7576 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7577 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7578 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7579 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7580 [Steve Henson]
7581
7582 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7583 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7584 be obtained from the error queue.
7585 [Bodo Moeller]
7586
7587 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7588 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7589 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7590 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7591 [Bodo Moeller]
7592
7593 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7594 [Ulf Möller]
7595
7596 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7597 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7598 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7599 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7600 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7601 [Geoff Thorpe]
7602
7603 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7604 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7605 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7606 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7607 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7608 [Geoff Thorpe]
7609
7610 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7611 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7612 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7613 may not be NULL.
7614 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7615
7616 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7617 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7618 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7619 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7620 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7621 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7622 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7623 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7624 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7625 or "the configuration storage API"...
7626
7627 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7628
7629 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7630 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7631
7632 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7633
7634 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7635
7636 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7637 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7638 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7639 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7640 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7641 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7642 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7643
7644 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7645 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7646 [Richard Levitte]
7647
7648 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7649 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7650 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7651 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7652 [Bodo Moeller]
7653
7654 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7655 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7656 them in a portable way.
7657 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7658
7659 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7660
7661 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7662
7663 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7664 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7665
7666 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7667 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7668 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7669 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7670
7671 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7672 was larger than the MD block size.
7673 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7674
7675 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7676 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7677 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7678 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7679 components.
7680 [Steve Henson]
7681
7682 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7683 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7684 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7685
7686 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7687 discouraged.
7688 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7689
7690 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7691 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7692 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7693 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7694 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7695 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7696
7697 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7698 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7699
7700 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7701 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7702 [Bodo Moeller]
7703
7704 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7705 [Bodo Moeller]
7706
7707 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7708 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7709 its own key.
7710 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7711 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7712 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7713 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7714 [Bodo Moeller]
7715
7716 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7717 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7718 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7719 does not suppress any output.
7720 [Richard Levitte]
7721
7722 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7723 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7724 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7725 with all the associated security issues.
7726
7727 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7728 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7729 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7730 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7731 use the value in the default purpose.
7732 [Steve Henson]
7733
7734 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7735 and fix a memory leak.
7736 [Steve Henson]
7737
7738 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7739 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7740 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7741 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7742 [Bodo Moeller]
7743
7744 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7745 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7746 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7747 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7748 [Bodo Moeller]
7749
7750 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7751 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7752 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7753 [Bodo Moeller]
7754
7755 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7756 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7757 [Bodo Moeller]
7758
7759 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7760 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7761 which was free.
7762 [Steve Henson]
7763
7764 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7765 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7766 [Bodo Moeller]
7767
7768 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7769 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7770 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7771 [Bodo Moeller]
7772
7773 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7774 number generation fails.
7775 [Bodo Moeller]
7776
7777 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7778 [Bodo Moeller]
7779
7780 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7781 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7782
7783 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7784 [Ulf Möller]
7785
7786 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7787 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7788
7789 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7790 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7791
7792 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7793
7794 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7795 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7796 [Steve Henson]
7797
7798 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7799 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7800
7801 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7802 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7803 [Ulf Möller]
7804
7805 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7806 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7807 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7808 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7809 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7810 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7811
7812 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7813 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7814 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7815 for example.
7816 [Steve Henson]
7817
7818 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7819 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7820 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7821 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7822 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7823 counter, some don't.)
7824 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7825 counters or duplicate objects.
7826 [Steve Henson]
7827
7828 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7829 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7830 [Steve Henson]
7831
7832 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7833 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7834 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7835
7836 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7837 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7838 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7839 or -rand.
7840 [Ulf Möller]
7841
7842 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7843 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7844 [Steve Henson]
7845
7846 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7847 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7848 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7849 cipher list.
7850 [Steve Henson]
7851
7852 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7853 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7854 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7855 [Steve Henson]
7856
7857 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7858 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7859 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7860 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7861 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7862 should work without changes.
7863 [Richard Levitte]
7864
7865 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7866 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7867 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7868 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7869 must be defined. E.g.,
7870 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7871 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7872 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
7873 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
7874
7875 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7876 record layer.
7877 [Bodo Moeller]
7878
7879 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7880 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7881 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7882 [Steve Henson]
7883
7884 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7885 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7886 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7887 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7888 [Steve Henson]
7889
7890 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7891 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7892 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7893 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7894 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7895 is prompted for as usual.
7896 [Steve Henson]
7897
7898 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7899 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7900 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7901 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7902
7903 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7904 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7905 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7906 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7907 [Steve Henson]
7908
7909 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7910 [Andy Polyakov]
7911
7912 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7913 of seed file.
7914 [Steve Henson]
7915
7916 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
7917 [Bodo Moeller]
7918
7919 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7920 [Steve Henson]
7921
7922 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7923 bits.
7924 [Ulf Möller]
7925
7926 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7927 [Ulf Möller]
7928
7929 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7930 [Andy Polyakov]
7931
7932 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7933 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7934 [Ulf Möller]
7935
7936 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7937 options to produce them.
7938 [Steve Henson]
7939
7940 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7941 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7942 [Ulf Möller]
7943
7944 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7945 for p == 0.
7946 [Ulf Möller]
7947
7948 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7949 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7950 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7951 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7952 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7953 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7954 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7955 [Steve Henson]
7956
7957 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7958 [Steve Henson]
7959
7960 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7961 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7962 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7963 [Bodo Moeller]
7964
7965 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
7966 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
7967
7968 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7969 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7970 [Ulf Möller]
7971
7972 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7973 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7974 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7975 has already seen).
7976 [Bodo Moeller]
7977
7978 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7979 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7980
7981 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7982 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7983 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7984 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7985 generation becomes much faster.
7986
7987 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
7988 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7989 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7990 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7991 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7992 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7993 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7994 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7995 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7996 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
7997 [Bodo Moeller]
7998
7999 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8000 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8001 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8002 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8003 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8004 trial division stage.
8005 [Bodo Moeller]
8006
8007 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8008 as ASN1_TIME.
8009 [Steve Henson]
8010
8011 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8012 [Steve Henson]
8013
8014 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8015 [Ulf Möller]
8016
8017 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8018 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8019 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8020 the comments.
8021 [Ulf Möller]
8022
8023 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8024 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8025 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8026 [Bodo Moeller]
8027
8028 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8029 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8030 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8031 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8032
8033 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8034 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8035 [Steve Henson]
8036
8037 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8038 [Ulf Möller]
8039
8040 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8041 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8042 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8043 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8044 [Ulf Möller]
8045
8046 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8047 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8048 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8049 [Ulf Möller]
8050
8051 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8052 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8053 (instead of parameters) in future.
8054 [Steve Henson]
8055
8056 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8057 when a new cipher list is set.
8058 [Steve Henson]
8059
8060 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8061 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8062 wrong.
8063
8064 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8065 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8066 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8067
8068 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8069 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8070 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8071 an error is flagged.
8072
8073 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8074 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8075 the readability was also increased :-)
8076 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8077
8078 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8079 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8080 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8081 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8082 as the root CA.
8083 [Steve Henson]
8084
8085 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8086 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8087 [Steve Henson]
8088
8089 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8090 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8091 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8092 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8093 instead.
8094
8095 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8096 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8097 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8098 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8099 because they handle more complex structures.)
8100 [Steve Henson]
8101
8102 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8103 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8104 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8105 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8106
8107 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8108 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8109 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8110 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8111 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8112 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8113 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8114 [Ulf Möller]
8115
8116 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8117 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8118 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8119 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8120 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8121 [Bodo Moeller]
8122
8123 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8124 [Bodo Moeller]
8125
8126 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8127 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8128 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8129 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8130 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8131 to use this.
8132
8133 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8134 code.
8135 [Steve Henson]
8136
8137 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8138 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8139 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8140 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8141 [Steve Henson]
8142
8143 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8144 [Ulf Möller]
8145
8146 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8147 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8148 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8149 international characters are used.
8150
8151 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8152 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8153 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8154 in ASN1 order.
8155 [Steve Henson]
8156
8157 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8158 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8159 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8160 request.
8161
8162 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8163 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8164 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8165 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8166 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8167 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8168
8169 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8170 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8171 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8172 be handled by the string table functions.
8173
8174 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8175 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8176 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8177 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8178 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8179 types at all.
8180 [Steve Henson]
8181
8182 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8183 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8184 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8185 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8186 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8187
8188 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8189 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8190 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8191 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8192 [Bodo Moeller]
8193
8194 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8195 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8196 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8197 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8198 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8199 SHA1.
8200 [Andy Polyakov]
8201
8202 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8203 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8204 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8205 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8206 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8207 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8208 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8209 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8210
8211 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8212 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8213 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8214 [Steve Henson]
8215
8216 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8217 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8218 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8219 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8220 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8221 support to pkcs8 application.
8222 [Steve Henson]
8223
8224 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8225 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8226 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8227 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8228 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8229 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8230 [Bodo Moeller]
8231
8232 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8233 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8234 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8235 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8236 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8237 consistency.
8238 [Bodo Moeller]
8239
8240 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8241 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8242 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8243 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8244 example.
8245 [Steve Henson]
8246
8247 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8248 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8249 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8250 and any application specific purposes.
8251
8252 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8253 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8254 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8255 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8256 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8257 if the certificate is self signed.
8258 [Steve Henson]
8259
8260 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8261 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8262 [Steve Henson]
8263
8264 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8265 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8266 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8267 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8268 [Steve Henson]
8269
8270 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8271 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8272 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8273 Update documentation.
8274 [Steve Henson]
8275
8276 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8277 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8278 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8279 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8280 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8281 [Steve Henson]
8282
8283 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8284 for details.
8285 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8286
8287 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8288 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8289 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8290 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8291 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8292 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8293 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8294 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8295 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8296 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8297
8298 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8299
8300 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8301 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8302 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8303 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8304 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8305
8306 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8307 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8308 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8309 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8310 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8311 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8312 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8313 request additional information:
8314 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8315 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8316
8317 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8318 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8319 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8320 options.
8321
8322 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8323 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8324
8325 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8326 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8327 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8328
8329 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8330 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8331
8332 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8333 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8334 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8335 algorithm.
8336 [Steve Henson]
8337
8338 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8339 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8340 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8341
8342 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8343 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8344 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8345 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8346 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8347 included in OpenSSL.
8348 [Steve Henson]
8349
8350 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8351 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8352 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8353 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8354 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8355 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8356 [Bodo Moeller]
8357
8358 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8359 PKCS12 structure.
8360 [Steve Henson]
8361
8362 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8363 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8364 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8365 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8366 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8367 structure.
8368 [Steve Henson]
8369
8370 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8371 need initialising.
8372 [Steve Henson]
8373
8374 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8375 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8376 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8377 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8378 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8379 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8380 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8381 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8382 be maintained manually.
8383
8384 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8385 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8386 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8387 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8388 work because people forget to call this function]
8389 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8390 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8391 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8392 [Steve Henson]
8393
8394 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8395 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8396 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8397 should be discouraged from doing it.
8398 [Ben Laurie]
8399
8400 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8401 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8402 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8403 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8404 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8405 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8406 [Steve Henson]
8407
8408 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8409 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8410 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8411
8412 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8413 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8414 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8415
8416 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8417 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8418 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8419 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8420 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8421 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8422
8423 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8424 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8425 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8426
8427 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8428 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8429 and vice versa.
8430
8431 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8432 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8433 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8434 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8435 [Steve Henson]
8436
8437 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8438 [Steve Henson]
8439
8440 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8441 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8442 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8443 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8444 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8445 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8446 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8447 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8448 keys so we should be OK.
8449
8450 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8451 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8452 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8453 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8454 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8455 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8456 stay in the name of compatibility.
8457
8458 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8459 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8460 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8461
8462 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8463 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8464 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8465 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8466 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8467 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8468 supplied key).
8469 [Steve Henson]
8470
8471 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8472 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8473 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8474 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8475 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8476 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8477 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8478 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8479 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8480 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8481 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8482 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8483 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8484 [Steve Henson]
8485
8486 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8487 [Steve Henson]
8488
8489 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8490 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8491 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8492 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8493 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8494 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8495 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8496 openssl verify ss.pem
8497 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8498 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8499 is OK.
8500 [Steve Henson]
8501
8502 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8503 (and add it to external session representation).
8504 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8505 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8506 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8507 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8508 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8509 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8510 security holes.
8511 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8512
8513 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8514 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8515 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8516 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8517
8518 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8519 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8520 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8521 [Steve Henson]
8522
8523 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8524 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8525 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8526 code.
8527 [Steve Henson]
8528
8529 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8530 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8531 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8532
8533 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8534 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8535 certificate auxiliary information.
8536 [Steve Henson]
8537
8538 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8539 the 'enc' command.
8540 [Steve Henson]
8541
8542 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8543 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8544 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8545 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8546 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8547 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8548 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8549 [Richard Levitte]
8550
8551 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8552 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8553 [Steve Henson]
8554
8555 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8556 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8557 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8558 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8559 [Steve Henson]
8560
8561 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8562 [Steve Henson]
8563
8564 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8565 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8566 [Steve Henson]
8567
8568 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8569 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8570 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8571 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8572 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8573 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8574 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8575 using the new 'x509' options.
8576
8577 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8578 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8579 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8580 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8581 for all purposes.
8582 [Steve Henson]
8583
8584 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8585 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8586 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8587 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8588 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8589 [Mark Cox]
8590
8591 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8592 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8593 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8594 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8595 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8596 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8597 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8598 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8599 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8600 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8601 [Steve Henson]
8602
8603 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8604 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8605 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8606 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8607 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8608 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8609 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8610 [Steve Henson]
8611
8612 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8613 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8614 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8615 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8616 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8617 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8618 openssl.cnf for more info.
8619 [Steve Henson]
8620
8621 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8622 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8623 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8624 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8625 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8626 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8627 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8628 md should be large enough anyway.
8629 [Bodo Moeller]
8630
8631 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8632 for handling the random seed file.
8633
8634 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8635 ca,
8636 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8637 s_client,
8638 s_server,
8639 x509 (when signing).
8640 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8641 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8642 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8643
8644 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8645 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8646 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8647 that support '-rand'.
8648 [Bodo Moeller]
8649
8650 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8651 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8652 [Bodo Moeller]
8653
8654 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8655 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8656 [Bill Perry]
8657
8658 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8659 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8660 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8661 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8662 is suitable.
8663 [Steve Henson]
8664
8665 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8666 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8667 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8668 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8669 [Steve Henson]
8670
8671 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8672 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8673 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8674 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8675 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8676 print out all the purposes.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8680 functions.
8681 [Steve Henson]
8682
8683 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8684 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8685 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8686 single function call.
8687 [Steve Henson]
8688
8689 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8690 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8691 [Andy Polyakov]
8692
8693 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8694 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8695 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8696 [Steve Henson]
8697
8698 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8699 when producing the local key id.
8700 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8701
8702 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8703 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8704 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8705 "server.pem".
8706 [Steve Henson]
8707
8708 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8709 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8710 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8711 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8712 [Steve Henson]
8713
8714 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8715 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8716 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8717 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8718
8719 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8720 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8721 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8722 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8723
8724 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8725 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8726 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8727 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8728 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8729 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8730 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8731 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8732 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8733 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8734 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8735 trivial: move one line.
8736 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8737
8738 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8739 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8740 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8741 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8742 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8743 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8744 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8745 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8746 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8747 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8748 with an event loop for example.
8749 [Steve Henson]
8750
8751 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8752 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8753 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8754 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8755 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8756 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8757 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8758 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8759 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8760 [Steve Henson]
8761
8762 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8763 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8764 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8765 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8766 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8767 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8768 [Steve Henson]
8769
8770 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8771 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8772 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8773 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8774
8775 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8776 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8777 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8778 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8779 key generation.
8780 [Steve Henson]
8781
8782 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8783 (still largely untested)
8784 [Bodo Moeller]
8785
8786 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8787 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8788 [Steve Henson]
8789
8790 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8791 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8792 [Steve Henson]
8793
8794 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8795 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8796 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8797 [Bodo Moeller]
8798
8799 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8800 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8801 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8802 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8803 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8804 [Steve Henson]
8805
8806 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8807 [Andy Polyakov]
8808
8809 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8810 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8811 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8812 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8813 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8814 in ca.
8815 [Steve Henson]
8816
8817 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8818 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8819 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8820 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8821 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8822 [Steve Henson]
8823
8824 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8825 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8826 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8827 are otherwise ignored at present.
8828 [Steve Henson]
8829
8830 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
8831 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
8832 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8833 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8834 copied until the next read.
8835 [Steve Henson]
8836
8837 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8838 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8839 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8840 [Steve Henson]
8841
8842 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8843 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8844 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8845 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8846 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8847 associated functions.
8848 [Steve Henson]
8849
8850 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8851 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8852 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8853 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8854 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8855 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8856 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8857 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8858 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
8859 memory BIOs.
8860 [Steve Henson]
8861
8862 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8863 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8864 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8865 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8866 [Bodo Moeller]
8867
8868 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8869 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8870 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8871 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8872 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8873 functionality.
8874 [Steve Henson]
8875
8876 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8877 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8878 under Win32.
8879 [Steve Henson]
8880
8881 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
8882 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8883 extensions to be obtained and added.
8884 [Steve Henson]
8885
8886 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
8887 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
8888 [Bodo Moeller]
8889
8890 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
8891
8892 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8893 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8894
8895 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
8896 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
8897
8898 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8899 program.
8900 [Steve Henson]
8901
8902 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8903 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8904 DH parameters contain its length).
8905
8906 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8907 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8908 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8909 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8910 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8911 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8912 utter importance to use
8913 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8914 or
8915 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8916 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8917 attacks may become possible!
8918 [Bodo Moeller]
8919
8920 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8921 [Bodo Moeller]
8922
8923 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8924 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8925 [Steve Henson]
8926
8927 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8928 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8929 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8930 or long name.
8931 [Steve Henson]
8932
8933 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8934 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8935 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8936 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
8937 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8938 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8939 private key operations.
8940 [Steve Henson]
8941
8942 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
8943 [Andy Polyakov]
8944
8945 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8946 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8947 to
8948 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8949 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8950 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8951 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8952 the password callback is called.
8953 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
8954
8955 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8956
8957 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8958 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8959 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8960 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8961 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8962 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8963 this will work.
8964
8965 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
8966 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
8967 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
8968 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
8969 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
8970 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
8971 [Bodo Moeller]
8972
8973 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
8974 [Andy Polyakov]
8975
8976 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
8977 delete an unused file.
8978 [Ulf Möller]
8979
8980 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8981 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8982 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
8983 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
8984 [Steve Henson]
8985
8986 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
8987 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
8988 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
8989 of an error.
8990 [Bodo Moeller]
8991
8992 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
8993 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
8994 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8995
8996 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
8997 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
8998 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
8999 comparison" warnings.
9000 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9001 [Steve Henson]
9002
9003 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9004 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9005 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9006 [Steve Henson]
9007
9008 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9009 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9010
9011 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9012 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9013
9014 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9015 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9016 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9017
9018 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9019 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9020 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9021 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9022 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9023 this bug.
9024 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9025
9026 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9027 The interface is as follows:
9028 Applications can use
9029 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9030 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9031 "off" is now the default.
9032 The library internally uses
9033 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9034 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9035 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9036
9037 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9038 even the default) are now avoided.
9039
9040 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9041 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9042 than just having a counter.
9043
9044 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9045
9046 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9047 extensions.
9048 [Bodo Moeller]
9049
9050 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9051 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9052 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9053 Initial "mode" flags are:
9054
9055 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9056 a single record has been written.
9057 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9058 retries use the same buffer location.
9059 (But all of the contents must be
9060 copied!)
9061 [Bodo Moeller]
9062
9063 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9064 worked.
9065
9066 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9067 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9068
9069 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9070 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9071 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9072 [Steve Henson]
9073
9074 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9075 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9076 test programs.
9077 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9078
9079 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9080 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9081 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9082 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9083 point to the end.
9084 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9085 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9086
9087 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9088 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9089 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9090 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9091 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9092 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9093 [Steve Henson]
9094
9095 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9096 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9097 necessary function names.
9098 [Steve Henson]
9099
9100 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9101 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9102 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9103 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9104 [Bodo Moeller]
9105
9106 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9107 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9108 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9109 [Steve Henson]
9110
9111 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9112 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9113 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9114 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9115 such programs?)
9116 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9117 need locks.
9118 [Bodo Moeller]
9119
9120 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9121 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9122 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9123 [Bodo Moeller]
9124
9125 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9126 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9127 appropriate.
9128 [Bodo Moeller]
9129
9130 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9131 for the encoded length.
9132 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9133
9134 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9135 [Steve Henson]
9136
9137 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9138 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9139 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9140 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9141 [Steve Henson]
9142
9143 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9144 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9145 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9146
9147 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9148 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9149 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9150 unusual formatting.
9151 [Steve Henson]
9152
9153 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9154 to use the new extension code.
9155 [Steve Henson]
9156
9157 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9158 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9159 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9160 constant.
9161 [Steve Henson]
9162
9163 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9164 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9165 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9166 [Bodo Moeller]
9167
9168 #if 0
9169 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9170 [Ben Laurie]
9171 #else
9172 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9173 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9174 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9175 #endif
9176
9177 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9178 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9179 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9180 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9181 [Ben Laurie]
9182
9183 *) DES library cleanups.
9184 [Ulf Möller]
9185
9186 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9187 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9188 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9189 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9190 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9191 of v2.0.
9192 [Steve Henson]
9193
9194 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9195 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9196 [Bodo Moeller]
9197
9198 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9199 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9200 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9201 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9202 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9203 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9204 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9205 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9206 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9207 [Steve Henson]
9208
9209 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9210 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9211 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9212 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9213 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9214 value doesn't matter.
9215 [Steve Henson]
9216
9217 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9218 support mutable.
9219 [Ben Laurie]
9220
9221 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9222 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9223 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9224 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9225
9226 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9227 [Ulf Möller]
9228
9229 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9230 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9231 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9232
9233 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9234 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9235
9236 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9237 [Ben Laurie]
9238
9239 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9240 [Ben Laurie]
9241
9242 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9243 [Ben Laurie]
9244
9245 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9246 [Bodo Moeller]
9247
9248
9249 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9250
9251 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9252
9253 *) Updated some demos.
9254 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9255
9256 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9257 [Wu Zhigang]
9258
9259 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9260 [Steve Henson]
9261
9262 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9263 [Steve Henson]
9264
9265 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9266 instead of using a fixed path.
9267 [Bodo Moeller]
9268
9269 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9270 [Andy Polyakov]
9271
9272 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9273 [Richard Levitte]
9274
9275
9276 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9277
9278 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9279 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9280 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9281
9282 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9283 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9284 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9285 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9286 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9287 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9288 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9289 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9290 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9291 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9292 [Steve Henson]
9293
9294 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9295 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9296 [Steve Henson]
9297
9298 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9299 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9300 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9301 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9302 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9303
9304 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9305 [Bodo Moeller]
9306
9307 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9308 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9309 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9310 [Steve Henson]
9311
9312 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9313 [Ben Laurie]
9314
9315 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9316 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9317 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9318 key elements as negative integers.
9319 [Steve Henson]
9320
9321 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9322 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9323
9324 *) VMS support.
9325 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9326
9327 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9328 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9329 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9330 [Steve Henson]
9331
9332 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9333 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9334 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9335 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9336 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9337 [Bodo Moeller]
9338
9339 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9340 [Ulf Möller]
9341
9342 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9343 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9344 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9345 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9346
9347 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9348 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9349 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9350
9351 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9352 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9353 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9354 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9355 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9356 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9357 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9358 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9359 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9360
9361 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9362 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9363 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9364 does not influence s as it used to.
9365
9366 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9367 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9368 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9369 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9370 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9371 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9372 [Bodo Moeller]
9373
9374 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9375 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9376 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9377 key type.
9378 [Steve Henson]
9379
9380 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9381 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9382 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9383 and 'x509').
9384 [Steve Henson]
9385
9386 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9387 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9388 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9389 extension option.
9390 [Steve Henson]
9391
9392 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9393 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9394 [Ben Laurie]
9395
9396 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9397 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9398
9399 *) Support Mingw32.
9400 [Ulf Möller]
9401
9402 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9403 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9404
9405 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9406 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9407
9408 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9409 [Ulf Möller]
9410
9411 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9412 [Anonymous]
9413
9414 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9415 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9416
9417 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9418 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9419 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9420 DER-encoded.)
9421 [Bodo Moeller]
9422
9423 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9424 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9425 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9426 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9427 now it really counts the depth.
9428 [Bodo Moeller]
9429
9430 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9431 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9432 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9433 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9434 didn't match the private key).
9435
9436 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9437 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9438 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9439 [Bodo Moeller]
9440
9441 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9442 [Ulf Möller]
9443
9444 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9445 David Harris.
9446 [Bodo Moeller]
9447
9448 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9449 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9450 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9451 [Bodo Moeller]
9452
9453 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9454 [Bodo Moeller]
9455
9456 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9457 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9458 such as /usr/local/bin.
9459 [Bodo Moeller]
9460
9461 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9462 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9463
9464 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9465 [Ulf Möller]
9466
9467 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9468 extension adding in x509 utility.
9469 [Steve Henson]
9470
9471 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9472 [Ulf Möller]
9473
9474 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9475 prototypes.
9476 [Steve Henson]
9477
9478 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9479 [Ulf Möller]
9480
9481 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9482 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9483 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9484 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9485 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9486 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9487 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9488 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9489 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9490 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9491 [Steve Henson]
9492
9493 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9494 [Bodo Moeller]
9495
9496 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9497 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9498 [Bodo Moeller]
9499
9500 *) Fix some race conditions.
9501 [Bodo Moeller]
9502
9503 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9504 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9505 [Steve Henson]
9506
9507 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9508 [Ulf Möller]
9509
9510 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9511 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9512 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9513 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9514
9515 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9516 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9517
9518 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9519 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9520 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9521
9522 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9523 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9524
9525 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9526 [Ulf Möller]
9527
9528 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9529 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9530
9531 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9532 [Ulf Möller]
9533
9534 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9535 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9536
9537 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9538 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9539 [Steve Henson]
9540
9541 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9542 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9543 [Ben Laurie]
9544
9545 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9546 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9547 [Steve Henson]
9548
9549 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9550 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9551 [Steve Henson]
9552
9553 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9554 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9555 [Steve Henson]
9556
9557 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9558 support typesafe stack.
9559 [Steve Henson]
9560
9561 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9562 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9563
9564 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9565 old X509V3 handling code.
9566 [Steve Henson]
9567
9568 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9569 [Ulf Möller]
9570
9571 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9572 [Bodo Moeller]
9573
9574 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9575 [Ben Laurie]
9576
9577 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9578 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9579
9580 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9581 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9582 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9583 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9584 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9585 [Ben Laurie]
9586
9587 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9588 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9589 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9590 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9591 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9592
9593 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9594 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9595 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9596 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9597
9598 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9599 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9600 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9601 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9602
9603 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9604 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9605 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9606 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9607 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9608 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9609 [Bodo Moeller]
9610
9611 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9612 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9613 [Bodo Moeller]
9614
9615 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9616 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9617 [Ulf Möller]
9618
9619 *) Tweaks to Configure
9620 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9621
9622 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9623 yet...
9624 [Steve Henson]
9625
9626 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9627 [Ulf Möller]
9628
9629 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9630 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9631 [Ulf Möller]
9632
9633 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9634 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9635 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9636 [Bodo Moeller]
9637
9638 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9639 [Bodo Moeller]
9640
9641 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9642 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9643 [Steve Henson]
9644
9645 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9646 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9647 to library startup routines.
9648 [Steve Henson]
9649
9650 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9651 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9652 codes along the way.
9653 [Steve Henson]
9654
9655 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9656 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9657 objects to objects.h
9658 [Steve Henson]
9659
9660 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9661 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9662 [Steve Henson]
9663
9664 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9665 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9666
9667 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9668 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9669 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9670
9671 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9672 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9673 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9674
9675 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9676 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9677 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9678
9679
9680 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9681
9682 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9683 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9684 [Ben Laurie]
9685
9686 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9687 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9688 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9689 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9690 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9691
9692 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9693 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9694 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9695 document.
9696 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9697
9698 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9699 Malloc, Free.
9700 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9701
9702 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9703 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9704
9705 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9706 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9707 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9708 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9709
9710 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9711 [Ben Laurie]
9712
9713 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9714 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9715 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9716 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9717 [Steve Henson]
9718
9719 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9720 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9721 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9722 [Steve Henson]
9723
9724 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9725 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9726 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9727 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9728 installed as `perl').
9729 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9730
9731 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9732 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9733
9734 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9735 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9736 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9737 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9738 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9739 [Steve Henson]
9740
9741 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9742 [Ben Laurie]
9743
9744 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9745 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9746 is horrible: I feel ill....
9747 [Steve Henson]
9748
9749 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9750 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9751 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9752 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9753 [Steve Henson]
9754
9755 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9756 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9757
9758 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9759 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9760 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9761 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9762
9763 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9764 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9765 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9766 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9767 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9768 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9769 openssl_bio.xs.
9770 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9771
9772 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9773 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9774
9775 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9776 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9777
9778 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9779 [Ben Laurie]
9780
9781 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9782 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9783 in CRLs.
9784 [Steve Henson]
9785
9786 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9787 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9788 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9789 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9790 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9791 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9792 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9793 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9794 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9795 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9796 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9797
9798 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9799 [Ben Laurie]
9800
9801 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9802 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9803 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9804 for linking it into DSOs.
9805 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9806
9807 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9808 Fixed.
9809 [Ben Laurie]
9810
9811 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9812 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9813 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9814 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9815 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9816 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9817
9818 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9819 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9820 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9821 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9822 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9823 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9824 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9825
9826 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9827 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9828 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9829 encryption.
9830 [Ben Laurie]
9831
9832 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9833 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9834 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9835 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9836 [Steve Henson]
9837
9838 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9839 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9840 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9841 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9842 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9843 field as blank.
9844 [Steve Henson]
9845
9846 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9847 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9848 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9849 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9850 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9851
9852 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9853 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9854 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9855
9856 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9857 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9858
9859 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9860 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9861 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9862 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9863 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9864 [Steve Henson]
9865
9866 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9867 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9868 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9869 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9870 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
9871 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9872 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9873 [Ben Laurie]
9874
9875 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9876 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9877 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9878 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9879 [Ben Laurie]
9880
9881 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9882 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
9883
9884 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9885 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9886 [Steve Henson]
9887
9888 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9889 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9890 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9891 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9892 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9893 (e.g. s_server).
9894 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9895 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9896 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9897 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9898 no way to reconfigure them.
9899 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9900 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9901 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9902 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9903 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9904 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9905
9906 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9907 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9908 recognized by the users.
9909 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9910
9911 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9912 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9913 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9914 already masked variable.
9915 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9916
9917 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
9918 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9919
9920 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9921 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9922 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
9923 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9924
9925 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9926 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9927 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9928
9929 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9930 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9931 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9932 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9933 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9934 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9935 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9936 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9937 now, too.
9938 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9939
9940 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
9941 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
9942 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9943
9944 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
9945 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
9946 config file.
9947 [Steve Henson]
9948
9949 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
9950 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9951
9952 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9953 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9954 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
9955 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
9956 [Ben Laurie]
9957
9958 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
9959 [Steve Henson]
9960
9961 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
9962 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9963
9964 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
9965 [Ben Laurie]
9966
9967 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
9968 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
9969 [Steve Henson]
9970
9971 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
9972 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
9973 [Steve Henson]
9974
9975 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9976 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9977 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9978 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9979 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9980 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
9981 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
9982 Ben Laurie]
9983
9984 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9985 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9986
9987 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9988 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9989 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9990 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9991 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9992
9993 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9994 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
9995 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
9996 [Steve Henson]
9997
9998 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9999 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10000 an example.
10001 [Steve Henson]
10002
10003 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10004 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10005 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10006
10007 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10008 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10009 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10010 build instructions.
10011 [Steve Henson]
10012
10013 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10014 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10015 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10016 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10017 [Steve Henson]
10018
10019 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10020 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10021 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10022 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10023 [Ben Laurie]
10024
10025 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10026 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10027 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10028 so it wasn't spotted.
10029 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10030
10031 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10032 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10033 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10034 vectors if you have them.
10035 [Ben Laurie]
10036
10037 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10038 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10039 [Ben Laurie]
10040
10041 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10042 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10043 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10044 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10045 If you do a:
10046 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10047 it will update them.
10048 [Steve Henson]
10049
10050 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10051 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10052 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10053 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10054 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10055 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10056 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10057 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10058
10059 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10060 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10061 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10062 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10063 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10064 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10065 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10066 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10067 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10068 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10069
10070 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10071 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10072 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10073 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10074 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10075 [Steve Henson]
10076
10077 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10078 INTEGER code.
10079 [Steve Henson]
10080
10081 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10082 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10083
10084 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10085 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10086
10087 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10088 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10089 [Ben Laurie]
10090
10091 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10092 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10093
10094 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10095 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10096
10097 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10098 [Steve Henson]
10099
10100 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10101 few typos.
10102 [Steve Henson]
10103
10104 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10105 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10106 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10107 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10108
10109 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10110 [Steve Henson]
10111
10112 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10113 [Steve Henson]
10114
10115 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10116 [Steve Henson]
10117
10118 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10119 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10120 [Steve Henson]
10121
10122 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10123 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10124 CA extensions.
10125 [Steve Henson]
10126
10127 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10128 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10129 [Steve Henson]
10130
10131 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10132 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10133 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10134 [Steve Henson]
10135
10136 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10137 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10138 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10139 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10140 properly to be processed.
10141 [Steve Henson]
10142
10143 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10144 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10145 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10146 [Ben Laurie]
10147
10148 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10149 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10150
10151 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10152 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10153 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10154 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10155 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10156 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10157 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10158 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10159 or delete all the .err files.
10160 [Steve Henson]
10161
10162 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10163 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10164 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10165 to regenerate it if needed.
10166 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10167 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10168
10169 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10170 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10171
10172 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10173 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10174 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10175 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10176 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10177 [Steve Henson]
10178
10179 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10180 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10181
10182 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10183 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10184
10185 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10186 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10187 error, but didn't set one).
10188 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10189
10190 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10191 [Ben Laurie]
10192
10193 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10194 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10195 [Steve Henson]
10196
10197 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10198 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10199
10200 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10201 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10202 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10203 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10204 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10205 OID is not part of the table.
10206 [Steve Henson]
10207
10208 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10209 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10210 [Ben Laurie]
10211
10212 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10213 [Ben Laurie]
10214
10215 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10216 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10217 was "1234").
10218 [Steve Henson]
10219
10220 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10221 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10222
10223 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10224 NULL pointers.
10225 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10226
10227 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10228 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10229
10230 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10231 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10232
10233 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10234 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10235
10236 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10237 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10238 [Ben Laurie]
10239
10240 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10241 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10242 [Steve Henson]
10243
10244 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10245 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10246
10247 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10248 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10249
10250 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10251 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10252
10253 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10254 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10255
10256 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10257 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10258 unused in the certificate verification process.
10259 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10260
10261 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10262 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10263 [Steve Henson]
10264
10265 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10266 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10267 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10268
10269 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10270 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10271 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10272 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10273 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10274
10275 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10276 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10277 [Steve Henson]
10278
10279 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10280 [Steve Henson]
10281
10282 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10283 [Paul Sutton]
10284
10285 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10286 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10287
10288 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10289 [Ben Laurie]
10290
10291 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10292 [Ben Laurie]
10293
10294 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10295 [Ben Laurie]
10296
10297 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10298 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10299 other error libraries.
10300 [Steve Henson]
10301
10302 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10303 [Steve Henson]
10304
10305 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10306 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10307 be read in.
10308 [Steve Henson]
10309
10310 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10311 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10312 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10313 the new set of documenation files.
10314 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10315
10316 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10317 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10318 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10319 number of arguments.
10320 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10321
10322 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10323 [Ben Laurie]
10324
10325 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10326 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10327 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10328
10329 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10330 [Ben Laurie]
10331
10332 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10333 nextstep
10334 ncr-scde
10335 unixware-2.0
10336 unixware-2.0-pentium
10337 sco5-cc.
10338 [Ben Laurie]
10339
10340 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10341 before they are needed.
10342 [Ben Laurie]
10343
10344 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10345 [Ben Laurie]
10346
10347
10348 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10349
10350 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10351 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10352 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10353
10354 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10355 [Paul Sutton]
10356
10357 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10358 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10359 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10360
10361 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10362 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10363 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10364
10365 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10366 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10367 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10368
10369 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10370 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10371
10372 *) Updated the README file.
10373 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10374
10375 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10376 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10377 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10378
10379 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10380 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10381 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10382
10383 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10384 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
10385 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
10386 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
10387 o removed obsolete TODO file
10388 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10389 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10390
10391 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10392 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10393 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10394 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10395 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10396 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10397 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10398
10399 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10400 [Mark J. Cox]
10401
10402 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10403 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10404 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10405 summer 1998.
10406 [The OpenSSL Project]
10407
10408
10409 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
10410
10411 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
10412 [Eric A. Young]
10413
10414 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
10415 [Eric A. Young]
10416
10417 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10418 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10419 [Eric A. Young]
10420
10421 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10422 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10423 available).
10424 [Eric A. Young]
10425
10426 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10427 binary structures
10428 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
10429
10430 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
10431 [Eric A. Young]
10432
10433 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
10434 [Eric A. Young]
10435
10436 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
10437 [Eric A. Young]
10438
10439 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
10440 [Eric A. Young]
10441
10442 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
10443 [Eric A. Young]
10444
10445 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
10446 [Eric A. Young]
10447
10448 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
10449 [Eric A. Young]
10450
10451 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
10452 [Eric A. Young]
10453
10454 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
10455 [Eric A. Young]
10456
10457 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
10458 [Eric A. Young]
10459
10460 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
10461 [Eric A. Young]
10462
10463 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
10464 [Eric A. Young]
10465
10466 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
10467 [Eric A. Young]
10468
10469 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
10470 [Eric A. Young]
10471
10472 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
10473 [Eric A. Young]
10474
10475 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
10476 [Eric A. Young]
10477
10478 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
10479 [Eric A. Young]
10480
10481 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
10482 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
10483 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10484 [Eric A. Young]
10485
10486 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10487 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10488 [Eric A. Young]
10489
10490 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
10491 [Eric A. Young]
10492
10493 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
10494 [Eric A. Young]
10495
10496 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
10497 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
10498 [Eric A. Young]
10499
10500 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
10501 [Eric A. Young]
10502
10503 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
10504 [Eric A. Young]
10505
10506 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
10507 bytes sent in the client random.
10508 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
10509
