5 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) New output format NSS in the sess_id command line tool. This allows
8 exporting the session id and the master key in NSS keylog format.
9 [Martin Kaiser <martin@kaiser.cx>]
10
11 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
12 compilation flags.
13 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
14
15 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
16 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
17 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
18
19 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
20 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
21
22 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
23 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
24 server.
25
26 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
27 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
28 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
29 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
30
31 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
32 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
33 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
34 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
35
36 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
37 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
38 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
39
40 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
41 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
42 [Steve Henson]
43
44 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
45
46 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
47 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
48
49 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
50 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
51
52 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
53 effect.
54
55 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
56
57 [Steve Henson]
58
59 *) Add callbacks supporting generation and retrieval of supplemental
60 data entries.
61 [Scott Deboy <sdeboy@apache.org>, Trevor Perrin and Ben Laurie]
62
63 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
64 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
65 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
66 algorithms and include tests cases.
67 [Steve Henson]
68
69 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
70 enveloped data.
71 [Steve Henson]
72
73 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
74 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
78 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
79 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
82 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
83 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
84
85 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
86 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
87 [Steve Henson]
88
89 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
90 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
91 failures.
92 [Steve Henson]
93
94 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
95 sign or verify all in one operation.
96 [Steve Henson]
97
98 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
99 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
100 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
101 [Steve Henson]
102
103 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
104 [Steve Henson]
105
106 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
107 [Steve Henson]
108
109 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
110 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
111 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
112 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
113 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
117 based on NID.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
120 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
121 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
122 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
123 [Steve Henson]
124
125 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
126 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
127 [Steve Henson]
128
129 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
130 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
131
132 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
133 POST to handle HMAC cases.
134 [Steve Henson]
135
136 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
137 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
138 [Steve Henson]
139
140 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
141 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
142 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
146 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
147 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
148 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
149 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
150 requested amount of entropy.
151 [Steve Henson]
152
153 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
154 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
155 [Steve Henson]
156
157 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
158 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
159 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
160 support.
161 [Steve Henson]
162
163 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
164 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
165 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
166 [Steve Henson]
167
168 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
169 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
170 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
171 will never use XTS mode.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
175 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
176 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
177 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
178 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
179 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
180 [Steve Henson]
181
182 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
183 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
184 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
185 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
189 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
190 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
191 [Steve Henson]
192
193 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
194 [Steve Henson]
195
196 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
197 [Steve Henson]
198
199 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
200 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
201 [Steve Henson]
202
203 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
204 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
205 [Steve Henson]
206
207 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
208 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
209 [Steve Henson]
210
211 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
212 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
213 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
214 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
215 and rename any affected symbols.
216 [Steve Henson]
217
218 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
219 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
220 [Steve Henson]
221
222 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
223 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
224 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
225 [Steve Henson]
226
227 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
228 [Steve Henson]
229
230 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
231 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
232 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
233 [Steve Henson]
234
235 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
236 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
237 [Steve Henson]
238
239 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
240 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
241 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
242 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
243 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
244 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
245 set before the key.
246 [Steve Henson]
247
248 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
249 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
250 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
251 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
252 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
253 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
254 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
255 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
256 [Steve Henson]
257
258 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
259 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
260 [Steve Henson]
261
262 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
263
264 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
265 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
266
267 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
268 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
269 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
270 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
271 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
272 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
273
274 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
275 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
276 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
277 security.
278 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
279
280 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
281 parameters by name.
282 [Steve Henson]
283
284 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
285 Add CMAC pkey methods.
286 [Steve Henson]
287
288 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
289 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
290 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
291 [Steve Henson]
292
293 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
294 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
295 multi-process servers.
296 [Steve Henson]
297
298 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
299 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
300 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
301 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
302 RAND_METHOD structure.
303 [Steve Henson]
304
305 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
306 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
307 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
308 whose return value is often ignored.
309 [Steve Henson]
310
311 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
312
313 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
314 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
315 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
316 [Steve Henson]
317
318 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
319
320 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
321 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
322 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
323 is at least 512 bytes long.
324
325 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
326
327 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
328 structure.
329 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
330
331 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
332 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
333 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
334 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
335 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
336 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
337 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
338
339 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
340 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
341 [Steve Henson]
342
343 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
344 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
345 summary of the connection parameters.
346 [Steve Henson]
347
348 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
349 of connection parameters.
350 [Steve Henson]
351
352 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
353 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
354
355 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
356 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
357 [Steve Henson]
358
359 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
360 [Steve Henson]
361
362 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
363 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
364 [Steve Henson]
365
366 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
367 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
368 [Steve Henson]
369
370 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
371 certificates.
372 [Steve Henson]
373
374 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
375 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
376 CRLs using the OCSP API.
377 [Steve Henson]
378
379 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
380 [Steve Henson]
381
382 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
383 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
384 [Steve Henson]
385
386 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
387 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
388 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
389 tracing.
390 [Steve Henson]
391
392 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
393 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
394 [Steve Henson]
395
396 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
397 OID NID.
398 [Steve Henson]
399
400 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
401 client to OpenSSL.
402 [Steve Henson]
403
404 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
405 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
406 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
407 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
408 [Steve Henson]
409
410 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
411 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
412 [Steve Henson]
413
414 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
415 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
416 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
417 comparison.
418 [Steve Henson]
419
420 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
421 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
422 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
423 use the certificate.
424 [Steve Henson]
425
426 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
427 [Steve Henson]
428
429 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
430 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
431 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
432 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
433 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
434 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
435 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
436
437 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
438 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
439
440 [Steve Henson]
441
442 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
443 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
444 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
445 [Steve Henson]
446
447 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
448 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
449 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
450 supported signature algorithms.
451 [Steve Henson]
452
453 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
454 [Steve Henson]
455
456 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
457 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
458 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
459 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
460 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
461 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
462 certificate and specify the whole chain.
463 [Steve Henson]
464
465 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
466 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
467 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
468 to have similar checks in it.
469
470 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
471 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
472 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
473 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
474 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
475 [Steve Henson]
476
477 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
478 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
479 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
480 shared signature algorithms.
481 [Steve Henson]
482
483 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
484 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
485 to support them.
486 [Steve Henson]
487
488 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
489 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
490 it couldn't be removed.
491 [Steve Henson]
492
493 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
494 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
495 [Steve Henson]
496
497 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
498 functions. Add manual page.
499 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
500
501 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
502 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
503 a certificate.
504 [Steve Henson]
505
506 *) Fix OCSP checking.
507 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
508
509 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
510 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
511 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
512 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
513 utility) or reject.
514 [Steve Henson]
515
516 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
517 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
518 [Steve Henson]
519
520 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
521 platform support for Linux and Android.
522 [Andy Polyakov]
523
524 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
525 [Andy Polyakov]
526
527 *) RFC 5878 (TLS Authorization Extensions) support.
528 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
529
530 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
531 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
532 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
533 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
534 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
535 [Steve Henson]
536
537 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
538 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
539 the new parameter format automatically.
540 [Steve Henson]
541
542 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
543 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
544 [Steve Henson]
545
546 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
547 [Steve Henson]
548
549 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
550 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
551 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
552 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
553 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
554 [Steve Henson]
555
556 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
557 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
558 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
559 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
560 to set list of supported curves.
561 [Steve Henson]
562
563 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
564 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
565 to print out received values.
566 [Steve Henson]
567
568 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
569 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
570 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
571 [Steve Henson]
572
573 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
574 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
575 [Steve Henson]
576
577 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
578 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
579 [Steve Henson]
580
581 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
582 certificates.
583 [Steve Henson]
584
585 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
586
587 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
588 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
589 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
590
591 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
592
593 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
594
595 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
596 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
597 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
598
599 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
600 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
601 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
602 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
603 (CVE-2013-0169)
604 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
605
606 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
607 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
608 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
609 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
610 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
611 (CVE-2012-2686)
612 [Adam Langley]
613
614 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
615 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
616 [Steve Henson]
617
618 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
619 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
620
621 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
622 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
623 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
624 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
625 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
626
627 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
628 [Steve Henson]
629
630 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
631 if renegotiating.
632 [Steve Henson]
633
634 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
635
636 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
637 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
638
639 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
640 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
641 (CVE-2012-2333)
642 [Steve Henson]
643
644 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
645 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
646 [Steve Henson]
647
648 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
649 approved.
650 [Steve Henson]
651
652 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
653
654 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
655 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
656 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
657 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
658 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
659 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
660 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
661 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
662 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
663 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
664 [Steve Henson]
665
666 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
667 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
668 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
669 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
670 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
671 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
672 client side.
673 [Andy Polyakov]
674
675 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
676
677 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
678 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
679 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
680
681 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
682 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
683 (CVE-2012-2110)
684 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
685
686 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
687 [Adam Langley]
688
689 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
690 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
691
692 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
693 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
694 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
695 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
696 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
697 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
698 Most broken servers should now work.
699 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
700 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
701 [Steve Henson]
702
703 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
704 [Andy Polyakov]
705
706 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
707
708 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
709 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
710 [Steve Henson]
711
712 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
713 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
714 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
715 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
716 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
717 [Steve Henson]
718
719 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
720 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
721 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
722 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
723 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
724 [Steve Henson]
725
726 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
727 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
728
729 *) Add support for SCTP.
730 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
731
732 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
733 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
734
735 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
736
737 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
738 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
739 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
740 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
741 - s390x: z196 support;
742 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
743
744 [Andy Polyakov]
745
746 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
747 (removal of unnecessary code)
748 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
749
750 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
751 [Eric Rescorla]
752
753 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
754 [Eric Rescorla]
755
756 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
757 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
758 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
759 by Google.
760 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
761
762 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
763 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
764 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
765 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
766 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
767
768 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
769 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
770 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
771
772 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
773 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
774 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
775
776 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
777 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
778 implementations).
779 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
780
781 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
782 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
783 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
784 [Steve Henson]
785
786 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
787 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
788 particular PSS.
789 [Steve Henson]
790
791 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
792 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
793 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
794 [Steve Henson]
795
796 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
797 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
798 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
799 the appropriate parameters.
800 [Steve Henson]
801
802 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
803 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
804 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
805 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
806 against a number of sample certificates.
807 [Steve Henson]
808
809 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
810 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
811
812 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
813 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
814
815 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
816 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
817 parameters r, s.
818 [Steve Henson]
819
820 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
821 RFC3211.
822 [Steve Henson]
823
824 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
825 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
826 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
827 password based CMS).
828 [Steve Henson]
829
830 *) Session-handling fixes:
831 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
832 but also support Session Tickets.
833 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
834 presented a ticket with an expired session.
835 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
836 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
837 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
838 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
839
840 *) Fix PSK session representation.
841 [Bodo Moeller]
842
843 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
844
845 This work was sponsored by Intel.
846 [Andy Polyakov]
847
848 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
849 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
850 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
851 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
852 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
853 [Steve Henson]
854
855 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
856 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
857 [Steve Henson]
858
859 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
860 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
861 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
862 [Steve Henson]
863
864 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
865 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
866 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
867 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
868 [Steve Henson]
869
870 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
871 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
872 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
873 [Steve Henson]
874
875 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
876 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
877
878 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
879 [Steve Henson]
880
881 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
882 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
883 [Steve Henson]
884
885 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
886 [Steve Henson]
887
888 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
889 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
890 [Steve Henson]
891
892 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
893 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
897 [Steve Henson]
898
899 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
900 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
901 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
902 [Steve Henson]
903
904 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
905 [Steve Henson]
906
907 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
908 [Steve Henson]
909
910 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
911 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
912 [Steve Henson]
913
914 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
915 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
916 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
917 [Steve Henson]
918
919 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
920 [Steve Henson]
921
922 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
923 and enable MD5.
924 [Steve Henson]
925
926 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
927 FIPS modules versions.
928 [Steve Henson]
929
930 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
931 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
932 until after the certificate request message is received.
933 [Steve Henson]
934
935 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
936 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
937 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
938 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
939 [Steve Henson]
940
941 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
942 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
943 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
944 support yet and no support for client certificates.
945 [Steve Henson]
946
947 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
948 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
949 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
950 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
951 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
952 and version checking.
953 [Steve Henson]
954
955 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
956 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
957 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
958 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
959 [Steve Henson]
960
961 *) Add SRP support.
962 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
963
964 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
965 [Steve Henson]
966
967 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
968 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
969 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
970
971 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
972 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
973 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
974 [Steve Henson]
975
976 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
977 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
978
979 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
980 a few changes are required:
981
982 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
983 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
984 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
985 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
986 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
987 [Steve Henson]
988
989 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
990
991 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
992
993 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
994 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
995 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
996
997 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
998 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
999 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1000 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1001 (CVE-2013-0169)
1002 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1003
1004 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1005 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1006 [Steve Henson]
1007
1008 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1009 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1010 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1011 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1012 (This is a backport)
1013 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1014
1015 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
1019
1020 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
1021 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
1022
1023 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
1024 to fix DoS attack.
1025
1026 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1027 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1028 (CVE-2012-2333)
1029 [Steve Henson]
1030
1031 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1032 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1033 [Steve Henson]
1034
1035 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
1036
1037 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1038 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1039 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1040
1041 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1042 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1043 (CVE-2012-2110)
1044 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1045
1046 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1047
1048 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1049 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1050 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1051 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1052 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1053 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1054 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1055 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1056 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1057 [Steve Henson]
1058
1059 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1060 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1061 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1062 [Steve Henson]
1063
1064 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1065
1066 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1067 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1068 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1069 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1070 [Antonio Martin]
1071
1072 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1073
1074 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1075 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1076 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1077 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1078 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1079 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1080 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1081 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1082 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1083 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1084 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1085 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1086 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1087
1088 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1089 (CVE-2011-4576)
1090 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1091
1092 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1093 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1094 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1095 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1096
1097 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1098 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1099
1100 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1101 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1102 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1103 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1104
1105 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1106 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1107
1108 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1109 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1110
1111 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1112 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1113
1114 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1115 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1116 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1117
1118 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1119 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1120 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1121
1122 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1123 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1124 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1125 the last update always remained unused).
1126 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1127
1128 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1129 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1130
1131 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1132
1133 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1134 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1135 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1136
1137 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1138 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1139 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1140
1141 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1142 [Bodo Moeller]
1143
1144 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1145 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1146 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1147 [Steve Henson]
1148
1149 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1150 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1151
1152 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1153
1154 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1155
1156 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1157
1158 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1159 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1160
1161 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1162 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1163 ambiguous.
1164 [Steve Henson]
1165
1166 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1167
1168 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1169 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1170 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1171 [Steve Henson]
1172
1173 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1174 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1175 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1176 [Ben Laurie]
1177
1178 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1179
1180 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1181 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1182 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1183 [Steve Henson]
1184
1185 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1186 a DLL.
1187 [Steve Henson]
1188
1189 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1190
1191 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1192 (CVE-2010-1633)
1193 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1194
1195 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1196
1197 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1198 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1199 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1200 [Steve Henson]
1201
1202 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1203 [Steve Henson]
1204
1205 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1206 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1207 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1208
1209 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1210 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1211 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1212 [Steve Henson]
1213
1214 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1215 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1216 [Steve Henson]
1217
1218 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1219 some responders need this.
1220 [Steve Henson]
1221
1222 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1223 correctly.
1224 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1225
1226 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1227 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1228 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1229 [Steve Henson]
1230
1231 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1232 [Steve Henson]
1233
1234 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1235 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1236 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1237 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1238 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1239 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1240 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1241 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1242 [Steve Henson]
1243
1244 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1245 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1246 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1247 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1248
1249 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1250 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1251
1252 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1253 be used on C++.
1254 [Steve Henson]
1255
1256 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1257 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1258 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1259 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1260 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1261 attempting to work them out.
1262 [Steve Henson]
1263
1264 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1265 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1266 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1267 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1268 [Steve Henson]
1269
1270 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1271 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1272 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1273 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1274 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1275 [Steve Henson]
1276
1277 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1278 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1279 you can do:
1280
1281 openssl sha256 foo
1282
1283 as well as:
1284
1285 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1286
1287 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1288
1289 [Steve Henson]
1290
1291 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1292 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1293
1294 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1295 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1296
1297 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1298 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1299 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1300 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1301 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1302 [Steve Henson]
1303
1304 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1305 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1306 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1307 [Steve Henson]
1308
1309 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1310 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1311 [Steve Henson]
1312
1313 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1314 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1315
1316 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1317 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1318 [Steve Henson]
1319
1320 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1321 [Ben Laurie]
1322
1323 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1324 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1325 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1326 CONF_VALUE.
1327 [Ben Laurie]
1328
1329 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1330 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1331 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1332 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1333 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1334 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1335 [Steve Henson]
1336
1337 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1338 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1339
1340 This work was sponsored by Google.
1341 [Steve Henson]
1342
1343 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1344 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1345 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1346 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1347 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1348 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1349 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1350 default.
1351
1352 This work was sponsored by Google.
1353 [Steve Henson]
1354
1355 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1356
1357 This work was sponsored by Google.
1358 [Steve Henson]
1359
1360 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1361 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1362 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1363 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1364
1365 This work was sponsored by Google.
1366 [Steve Henson]
1367
1368 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1369 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1370 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1371 CRL functionality in future.
1372
1373 This work was sponsored by Google.
1374 [Steve Henson]
1375
1376 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1377
1378 This work was sponsored by Google.
1379 [Steve Henson]
1380
1381 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1382 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1383
1384 This work was sponsored by Google.
1385 [Steve Henson]
1386
1387 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1388 and URI types are currently supported.
1389
1390 This work was sponsored by Google.
1391 [Steve Henson]
1392
1393 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1394 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1395 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1396 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1397 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1398 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1399 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1400 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1401
1402 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1403 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1404 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1405
1406 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1407 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1408 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1409 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1410
1411 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1412 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1413 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1414 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1415 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1416 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1417 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1418 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1419 of &errno.)
1420 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1421
1422 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1423 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1424 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1425
1426 This work was sponsored by Google.
1427 [Steve Henson]
1428
1429 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1430 [Ben Laurie]
1431
1432 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1433 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1434 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1435 [Ben Laurie]
1436
1437 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1438 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1439 [Nick Mathewson]
1440
1441 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1442 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1443 [Ben Laurie]
1444
1445 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1446 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1447 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1448 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1449 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1450 content types and variants.
1451 [Steve Henson]
1452
1453 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1454 [Steve Henson]
1455
1456 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1457 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1458 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1459 files from the associated perl scripts.
1460 [Steve Henson]
1461
1462 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1463 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1464 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1465
1466 *) s390x assembler pack.
1467 [Andy Polyakov]
1468
1469 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1470 "family."
1471 [Andy Polyakov]
1472
1473 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1474 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1475 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1476 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1477 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1478 to use. For example, specify an option
1479
1480 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1481
1482 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1483 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1484 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1485 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1486 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1487 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1488
1489 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1490 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1491 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1492 return non-zero for success.
1493
1494 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1495 by using
1496
1497 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1498 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1499
1500 where
1501
1502 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1503 void *arg;
1504
1505 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1506 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1507 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1508 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1509 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1510 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1511 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1512 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1513 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1514
1515 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1516 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1517 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1518 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1519 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1520 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1521
1522 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1523 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1524 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1525 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1526 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1527 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1528
1529 [Bodo Moeller]
1530
1531 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1532 MAC.
1533
1534 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1535
1536 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1537 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1538 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1539 supported.
1540
1541 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1542 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1543 SSL_SESSION.
1544
1545 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1546 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1547 with no application modification.
1548
1549 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1550 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1551
1552 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1553 or server extensions to be examined.
1554
1555 This work was sponsored by Google.
1556 [Steve Henson]
1557
1558 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1559 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1560 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1561
1562 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1563 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1564 ciphersuite support.
1565 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1566
1567 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1568 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1569 to output in BER and PEM format.
1570 [Steve Henson]
1571
1572 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1573 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1574 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1575 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1576 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1577 [Steve Henson]
1578
1579 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1580 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1581 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1582 utility.
1583 [Steve Henson]
1584
1585 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1586 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1587 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1588 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1589 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1590 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1591 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1592 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1593 enabled again.
1594
1595 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1596 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1597 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1598 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1599
1600 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1601 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1602 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1603 the default order.
1604 [Bodo Moeller]
1605
1606 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1607 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1608 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1609 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1610 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1611 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1612 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1613 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1614 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1615
1616 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1617 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1618 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1619 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1620 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1621 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1622 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1623 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1624 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1625 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1626 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1627 kinds of kludges.
1628
1629 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1630 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1631 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1632
1633 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1634 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1635 "CAMELLIA256".
1636 [Bodo Moeller]
1637
1638 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1639 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1640 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1641 [Nils Larsch]
1642
1643 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1644 it yet and it is largely untested.
1645 [Steve Henson]
1646
1647 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1648 [Nils Larsch]
1649
1650 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1651 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1652 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1653 [Steve Henson]
1654
1655 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1656 [Andy Polyakov]
1657
1658 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1659 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1660 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1661 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1662 [Steve Henson]
1663
1664 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1665 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1666 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1667 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1668 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1669 [Steve Henson]
1670
1671 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1672 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1673 [Cryptocom]
1674
1675 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1676 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1677 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1678 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1679 [Steve Henson]
1680
1681 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1682 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1683 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1684 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1685 [Steve Henson]
1686
1687 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1688 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1689 [Steve Henson]
1690
1691 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1692 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1693 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1694 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1695 [Steve Henson]
1696
1697 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1698 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1699 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1700 [Steve Henson]
1701
1702 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1703 utility.
1704 [Steve Henson]
1705
1706 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1707 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1708 [Steve Henson]
1709
1710 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1711 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1712 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1713 if necessary.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1717 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1718 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1719 [Steve Henson]
1720
1721 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1722 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1723 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1724 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1725 [Steve Henson]
1726
1727 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1728 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1729 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1730 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1731 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1732 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1733 [Douglas Stebila]
1734
1735 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1736 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1737 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1738 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1739 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1740
1741 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1742 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1743 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1744 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1745 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1746 protocol).
1747
1748 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1749 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1750 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1751 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1752
1753 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1754 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1755 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1756 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1757 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1758
1759 aECDH - ECDH cert
1760 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1761 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1762
1763 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1764 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1765
1766 [Bodo Moeller]
1767
1768 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1769 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1770 [Steve Henson]
1771
1772 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1773 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1774 [Steve Henson]
1775
1776 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1777 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1778 functional reference processing.
1779 [Steve Henson]
1780
1781 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1782 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1783 process.
1784 [Steve Henson]
1785
1786 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1787 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1788 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1789 [Steve Henson]
1790
1791 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1792 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1793 application to support multiple signers.
1794 [Steve Henson]
1795
1796 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1797 digest MAC.
1798 [Steve Henson]
1799
1800 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1801 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1802 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1803 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1804 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1805 [Steve Henson]
1806
1807 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1808 new API.
1809 [Steve Henson]
1810
1811 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1812 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1813 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1814 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1815 a no op.
1816 [Steve Henson]
1817
1818 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1819 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1820 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1821 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1822 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1823 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1824 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1825 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1826 [Steve Henson]
1827
1828 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1829 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1830 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1831 between digests and public key types.
1832 [Steve Henson]
1833
1834 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1835 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1836 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1837 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1838 [Steve Henson]
1839
1840 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1841 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1842 key ASN1 method.
1843 [Steve Henson]
1844
1845 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1846 [Steve Henson]
1847
1848 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1849 pkeyutl.
1850 [Steve Henson]
1851
1852 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1853 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1854 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1855 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1856 pkey, genpkey.
1857 [Steve Henson]
1858
1859 *) BeOS support.
1860 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1861
1862 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1863 manual pages.
1864 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1865
1866 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1867 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1868 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1869 functionality for RSA.
1870 [Steve Henson]
1871
1872 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1873 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1874 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1875 [Steve Henson]
1876
1877 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1878 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1879 [Steve Henson]
1880
1881 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1882 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1883 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1884 [Steve Henson]
1885
1886 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1887 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1888 [Douglas Stebila]
1889
1890 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1891 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1892 [Steve Henson]
1893
1894 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1895 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1896 type.
1897 [Steve Henson]
1898
1899 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1900 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1901 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1902 structure.
1903 [Steve Henson]
1904
1905 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1906 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1907 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1908 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1909 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1910 of public and private key structures.
1911 [Steve Henson]
1912
1913 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1914 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1915 [Douglas Stebila]
1916
1917 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1918 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1919 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1920
1921 New ciphersuites:
1922 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1923 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1924
1925 New functions:
1926 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1927 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1928 SSL_get_psk_identity
1929 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1930
1931 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1932
1933 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1934 and response verification functionality.
1935 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1936
1937 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1938 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1939 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1940 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1941 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1942 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1943 server_name extension.
1944
1945 New functions (subject to change):
1946
1947 SSL_get_servername()
1948 SSL_get_servername_type()
1949 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1950
1951 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1952
1953 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1954 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1955 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1956 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1957 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1958
1959 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1960
1961 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1962 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1963 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1964 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1965 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1966 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1967 option.
1968
1969 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1970
1971 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1972 [Andy Polyakov]
1973
1974 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1975 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1976 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1977 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1978 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1979 [Andy Polyakov]
1980
1981 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1982 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1983 macro.
1984 [Bodo Moeller]
1985
1986 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1987 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1988 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1989 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1990 [Andy Polyakov]
1991
1992 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1993 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1994 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1995 using the maximum available value.
1996 [Steve Henson]
1997
1998 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1999 in addition to the text details.
2000 [Bodo Moeller]
2001
2002 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2003 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2004 handle several customised structures at all.
2005 [Steve Henson]
2006
2007 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2008 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2009 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2010 [Steve Henson]
2011
2012 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2013 [Steve Henson]
2014
2015 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2016 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2017 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2018 [Steve Henson]
2019
2020 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2021 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2022 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2023 [Nils Larsch]
2024
2025 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2026 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2027 all fields.
2028 [Steve Henson]
2029
2030 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2031 [Steve Henson]
2032
2033 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2034 [NTT]
2035
2036 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
2037
2038 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
2039
2040 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
2041 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
2042 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
2043
2044 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2045 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2046 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
2047 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
2048 (CVE-2013-0169)
2049 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2050
2051 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2052 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2053 [Steve Henson]
2054
2055 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2056 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2057 [Steve Henson]
2058
2059 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2060 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2061 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2062 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2063 (This is a backport)
2064 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2065
2066 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2070
2071 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2072 to fix DoS attack.
2073
2074 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2075 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2076 (CVE-2012-2333)
2077 [Steve Henson]
2078
2079 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2080 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2081 [Steve Henson]
2082
2083 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2084
2085 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2086 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2087 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2088 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2089 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2090
2091 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2092
2093 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2094 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2095 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2096
2097 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2098 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2099 (CVE-2012-2110)
2100 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2101
2102 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2103
2104 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2105 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2106 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2107 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2108 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2109 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2110 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2111 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2112 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2113 [Steve Henson]
2114
2115 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2116 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2117 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2118 [Steve Henson]
2119
2120 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
2121
2122 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2123 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2124 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2125 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2126 [Antonio Martin]
2127
2128 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
2129
2130 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2131 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2132 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2133 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2134 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2135 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2136 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2137 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2138 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2139 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2140 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2141 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2142 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2143
2144 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
2145 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
2146
2147 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2148 (CVE-2011-4576)
2149 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2150
2151 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2152 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2153 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2154 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2155
2156 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2157 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2158 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2159 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2160
2161 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2162 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2163
2164 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2165 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2166
2167 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2168 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2169 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2170
2171 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2172 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2173 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2174
2175 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2176 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2177 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2178 the last update always remained unused).
2179 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2180
2181 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2182 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
2183 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2184
2185 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2186 [Bodo Moeller]
2187
2188 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2189 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2190
2191 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2192
2193 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2194
2195 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
2196
2197 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2198 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2199
2200 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2201 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2202 ambiguous.
2203 [Steve Henson]
2204
2205 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
2206
2207 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2208 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2209 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2210 [Steve Henson]
2211
2212 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2213 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2214 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2215 [Ben Laurie]
2216
2217 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
2218
2219 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2220 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2221 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2222 [Steve Henson]
2223
2224 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2225 [Steve Henson]
2226
2227 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
2228 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2229 some broken encodings work correctly.
2230 [Steve Henson]
2231
2232 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2233 is also one of the inputs.
2234 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2235
2236 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2237 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2238 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2239 etc are non-op.
2240 [Steve Henson]
2241
2242 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2243
2244 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2245 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
2246
2247 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2248 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2249 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2250
2251 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2252 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2253 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2254 [Steve Henson]
2255
2256 *) VMS fixes:
2257 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2258 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2259 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2260 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2261
2262 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2263
2264 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2265 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2266 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2267 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2268 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2269 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2270 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2271 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2272
2273 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2274 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2275 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2276
2277 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2278
2279 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2280 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2281
2282 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2283 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2284 [Bodo Moeller]
2285
2286 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2287 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2288 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2289 [Steve Henson]
2290
2291 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2292 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2293 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2294 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2295 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2296 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2297 [Steve Henson]
2298
2299 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2300 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2301 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2302 [Steve Henson]
2303
2304 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2305 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2306 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2307 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2308 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2309 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2310 CVE-2009-4355.
2311 [Steve Henson]
2312
2313 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2314 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2315 [Bodo Moeller]
2316
2317 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2318 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2319 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2320 [Steve Henson]
2321
2322 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2323 [Steve Henson]
2324
2325 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2326 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2327 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2328 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2329 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2330 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2331 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2332 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2333 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2334 [Steve Henson]
2335
2336 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2337 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2338 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2339 [Steve Henson]
2340
2341 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2342 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2343 [Steve Henson]
2344
2345 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2346 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2347 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2348 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2349 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2350 know what you are doing.
2351 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2352
2353 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2354 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2355 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2356 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2357 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2358 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2359 the handshake.
2360 [Steve Henson]
2361
2362 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2363 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2364 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2365 correctly.
2366 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2367
2368 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2369 warnings in other configurations.
2370 [Steve Henson]
2371
2372 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2373 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2374 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2375 systems need.
2376 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2377
2378 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2379 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2380 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2381
2382 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2383 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2384 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2385 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2386 [Steve Henson]
2387
2388 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2389 and restored.
2390 [Steve Henson]
2391
2392 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2393 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2394 clash.
2395 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2396
2397 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2398 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2399 other than a simple chain.
2400 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2401
2402 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2403 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2404 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2405 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2406 [Steve Henson]
2407
2408 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2409 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2410 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2411 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2412 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2413 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2414 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2415 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2416 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2417
2418 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2419 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2420 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2421 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2422 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2423 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2424 (CVE-2009-1377)
2425 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2426
2427 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2428 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2429 [Daniel Mentz]
2430
2431 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2432 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2433
2434 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2435 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2436
2437 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2438
2439 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2440 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2441 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2442 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2443 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2444 you're doing.
2445 [Ben Laurie]
2446
2447 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2448
2449 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2450 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2451 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2452 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2453
2454 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2455 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2456 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2457 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2458
2459 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2460 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2461 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2462 [Steve Henson]
2463
2464 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2465 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2466 level.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2470 to handle some structures.
2471 [Steve Henson]
2472
2473 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2474 for a '\n'
2475 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2476
2477 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2478 [Matthieu Herrb]
2479
2480 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2481 [Steve Henson]
2482
2483 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2484 [Steve Henson]
2485
2486 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2487 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2488 chosen compiler.
2489 [Ben Laurie]
2490
2491 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2492
2493 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2494 (CVE-2008-5077).
2495 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2496
2497 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2498 [Ben Laurie]
2499
2500 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2501 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2502 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2503 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2504
2505 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2506 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2507
2508 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2509 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2510 [Bodo Moeller]
2511
2512 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2513 s_client and s_server.
2514 [Ben Laurie]
2515
2516 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2517 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2518
2519 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2520 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2521
2522 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2523 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2524 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2525 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2526 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2527 [Bodo Moeller]
2528
2529 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2530
2531 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2532 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2533 [PR #1679]
2534
2535 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2536 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2537 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2538
2539 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2540 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2541 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2542 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2543
2544 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2545 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2546
2547 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2548
2549 *) Various precautionary measures:
2550
2551 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2552
2553 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2554 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2555 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2556
2557 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2558 outside the expected range.
2559
2560 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2561 builds.
2562
2563 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2564
2565 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2566 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2567 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2568
2569 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2570 [Steve Henson]
2571
2572 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2573 [Huang Ying]
2574
2575 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2576
2577 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2578 [Steve Henson]
2579
2580 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2581 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2582 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2583
2584 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2585 [Steve Henson]
2586
2587 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2588 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2589 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2590 files.
2591 [Steve Henson]
2592
2593 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2594
2595 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2596 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2597 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2598 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2599
2600 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2601 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2602 [Joe Orton]
2603
2604 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2605
2606 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2607 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2608 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2609
2610 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2611
2612 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2613 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2614 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2615 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2616 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2617
2618 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2619 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2620 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2621 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2622 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2623 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2624 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2625
2626 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2627
2628 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2629 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2630 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2631 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2632 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2633
2634 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2635 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2636
2637 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2638 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2639 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2640 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2641 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2642
2643 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2644
2645 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2646 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2647 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2648 sets may exist with different names.
2649 [Steve Henson]
2650
2651 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2652 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2653 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2654 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2655 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2656 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2657 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2658 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2659 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2660 implementation.
2661 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2662
2663 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2664 implemention in the following ways:
2665
2666 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2667 hard coded.
2668
2669 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2670 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2671 ignored for embedded content.
2672
2673 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2674 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2675 [Steve Henson]
2676
2677 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2678 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2679 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2680 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2681
2682 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2683 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2684 [Steve Henson]
2685
2686 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2687 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2688 [Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2691 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2692 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2693 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2694 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2695 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2696 data.
2697 [Steve Henson]
2698
2699 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2700 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2701 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2702
2703 *) Netware support:
2704
2705 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2706 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2707 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2708 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2709 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2710 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2711 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2712 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2713 platform
2714 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2715 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2716 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2717 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2718 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2719 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2720 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2721
2722 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2723 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2724 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2725 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2726 to s_client and s_server.
2727 [Steve Henson]
2728
2729 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2730
2731 *) Fix various bugs:
2732 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2733 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2734 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2735 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2736 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2737
2738 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2739
2740 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2741 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2742 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2743 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2744 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2745 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2746 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2747 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2748 [Andy Polyakov]
2749
2750 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2751 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2752 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2753 Steve Henson]
2754
2755 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2756 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2757 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2758 supported.
2759
2760 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2761 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2762 SSL_SESSION.
2763
2764 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2765 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2766 with no application modification.
2767
2768 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2769 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2770
2771 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2772 or server extensions to be examined.
2773
2774 This work was sponsored by Google.
2775 [Steve Henson]
2776
2777 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2778 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2779 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2780 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2781 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2782 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2783 server_name extension.
2784
2785 New functions (subject to change):
2786
2787 SSL_get_servername()
2788 SSL_get_servername_type()
2789 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2790
2791 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2792
2793 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2794 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2795 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2796 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2797 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2798
2799 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2800
2801 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2802 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2803 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2804 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2805 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2806 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2807 option.
2808
2809 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2810
2811 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2812 [Steve Henson]
2813
2814 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2815 [Andy Polyakov]
2816
2817 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2818 (which previously caused an internal error).
2819 [Bodo Moeller]
2820
2821 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2822 [Ben Laurie]
2823
2824 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2825 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2826
2827 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2828 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2829 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2830
2831 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2832 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2833 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2834 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2835
2836 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2837 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2838 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2839 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2840
2841 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2842 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2843 information. For detailed background information, see
2844 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2845 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2846 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2847 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2848 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2849 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2850 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2851 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2852 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2853 remove a conditional branch.
2854
2855 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2856 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2857 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2858 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2859 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2860 remains as a deprecated alias.
2861
2862 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2863 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2864 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2865 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2866
2867 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2868 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2869 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2870 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2871 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2872 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2873 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2874 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2875
2876 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2877
2878 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2879 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2880 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2881 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2882 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2883 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2884 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2885 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2886 in a different context.
2887 [Bodo Moeller]
2888
2889 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2890 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2891 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2892 [Bodo Moeller]
2893
2894 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2895 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2896 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2897
2898 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2899
2900 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2901 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2902 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2903 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2904 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2905 [Victor Duchovni]
2906
2907 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2908 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2909 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2910 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2911 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2912 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2913 [Bodo Moeller]
2914
2915 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2916 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2917 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2918 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2919 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2920 [Bodo Moeller]
2921
2922 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2923 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2924
2925 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2926 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2927 Improve header file function name parsing.
2928 [Steve Henson]
2929
2930 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2931 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2932 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2933
2934 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2935
2936 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2937 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2938 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2939
2940 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2941 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2942
2943 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2944 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2945
2946 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2947 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2948 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2949
2950 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2951 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2952 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2953 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2954 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2955 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2956 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2957 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2958 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2959
2960 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2961 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2962 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2963 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2964 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2965
2966 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2967 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2968 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2969 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2970 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2971 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2972 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2973 multiple values to extend the available space.

2975 [Bodo Moeller]
2976
2977 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2978
2979 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2980 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2981
2982 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2983 [Ben Laurie]
2984
2985 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2986 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2987 undesirable limitations.
2988 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2989
2990 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2991 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2992 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2993 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2994 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2995 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2996 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2997 [Bodo Moeller]
2998
2999 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3000
3001 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3002 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3003 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3004
3005 The latter two were purportedly from
3006 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3007 appear there.
3008
3009 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3010 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3011 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3012 [Bodo Moeller]
3013
3014 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3015 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3016 [Bodo Moeller]
3017
3018 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3019 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3020 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3021 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3022
3023 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3024 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3025 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3026 [NTT]
3027
3028 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3029 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3030 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3031 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3032 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3033 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3034 [Steve Henson]
3035
3036 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3037
3038 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3039 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3040 [Steve Henson]
3041
3042 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3043 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3044
3045 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3046 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3047 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3048 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3049 [Douglas Stebila]
3050
3051 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3052 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3053 [Steve Henson]
3054
3055 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3056 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3057 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3058 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3059 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3060 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3061 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3062 can't be loaded.
3063 [Steve Henson]
3064
3065 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3066 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3067 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3068 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3069 [Steve Henson]
3070
3071 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3072 under VC++ build system.
3073 [Steve Henson]
3074
3075 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3076 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3077 [Richard Levitte]
3078
3079 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3080
3081 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3082 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3083 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3084 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3085 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3086
3087 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3088 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3089 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3090
3091 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3092 [Steve Henson]
3093
3094 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3095 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3096 [Nils Larsch]
3097
3098 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3099 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3100
3101 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3102 [Nick Mathewson]
3103
3104 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3105 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3106
3107 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3108 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3109 [Steve Henson]
3110
3111 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3112 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3113 smime utility.
3114 [Steve Henson]
3115
3116 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3117
3118 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3119 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3120
3121 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3122 [Richard Levitte]
3123
3124 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3125 key into the same file any more.
3126 [Richard Levitte]
3127
3128 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3129 [Andy Polyakov]
3130
3131 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3132 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3133
3134 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3135 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3136 [Richard Levitte]
3137
3138 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3139 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3140 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3141 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3142 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3143 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3144
3145 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3146 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3147 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3148 [Steve Henson]
3149
3150 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3151 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3152 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3153 - add new function for parameter creation
3154 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3155 BN_BLINDING parameters
3156 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3157 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3158 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3159 threads.
3160 [Nils Larsch]
3161
3162 *) Add support for DTLS.
3163 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3164
3165 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3166 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3167 [Walter Goulet]
3168
3169 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3170 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3171 [Nils Larsch]
3172
3173 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3174 the apps/openssl applications.
3175 [Nils Larsch]
3176
3177 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3178 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3179 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3180 [Ben Laurie]
3181
3182 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3183 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3184
3185 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3186 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3187
3188 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3189 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3190 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3191 avoid this algorithm.)
3192
3193 [Bodo Moeller]
3194
3195 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3196 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3197 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3198 [Richard Levitte]
3199
3200 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3201 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3202 [Andy Polyakov]
3203
3204 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3205 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3206 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3207 pod file:
3208
3209 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3210
3211 The blank line is mandatory.
3212
3213 [Steve Henson]
3214
3215 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3216 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3217 sources.
3218 [Steve Henson]
3219
3220 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3221 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3222
3223 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3224 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3225 to support policy checking and print out.
3226 [Steve Henson]
3227
3228 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3229 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3230 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3231 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3232
3233 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3234 [Geoff Thorpe]
3235
3236 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3237 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3238
3239 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3240 implementation contributed by IBM.
3241 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3242
3243 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3244 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3245 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3246 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3247
3248 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3249 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3250
3251 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3252 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3253 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3254 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3255 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3256 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3257 [Steve Henson]
3258
3259 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3260 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3261 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3262 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3263 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3264 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3265 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3266 [Geoff Thorpe]
3267
3268 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3269 [Steve Henson]
3270
3271 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3272 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3273 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3274 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3275 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3276 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3277 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3278 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3279 [Steve Henson]
3280
3281 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3282 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3283 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3284 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3285 [Steve Henson]
3286
3287 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3288 syntax:
3289
3290 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3291 [Steve Henson]
3292
3293 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3294 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3295 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3296 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3297 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3298 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3299 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3300 [Geoff Thorpe]
3301
3302 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3303 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3304 [Geoff Thorpe]
3305
3306 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3307 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3308 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3309 [Steve Henson]
3310
3311 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3312 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3313 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3314 below).
3315 [Geoff Thorpe]
3316
3317 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3318 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3319 [Richard Levitte]
3320
3321 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3322 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3323 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3324 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3325 [Geoff Thorpe]
3326
3327 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3328 initialised value as BN_new().
3329 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3330
3331 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3332 [Steve Henson]
3333
3334 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3335 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3336 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3337 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3338 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3339 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3340 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3341 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3342 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3343 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3344 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3345 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3346 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3347 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3348 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3349
3350 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3351 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3352 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3353 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3354 [Geoff Thorpe]
3355
3356 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3357 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3358 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3359 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3360 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3361 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3362 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3363 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3364 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3365 [Geoff Thorpe]
3366
3367 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3368 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3369 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3370 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3371 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3372 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3373 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3374 [Geoff Thorpe]
3375
3376 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3377 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3378 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3379 these have been updated also.
3380 [Geoff Thorpe]
3381
3382 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3383 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3384 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3385 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3386 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3387 functions.
3388 [Steve Henson]
3389
3390 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3391 structure of type "other".
3392 [Steve Henson]
3393
3394 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3395 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3396 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3397 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3398 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3399 situation in the script.
3400 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3401
3402 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3403 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3404 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3405 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3406 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3407 used as premaster secret.
3408 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3409
3410 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3411 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3412 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3413
3414 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3415 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3416
3417 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3418 control of the error stack.
3419 [Richard Levitte]
3420
3421 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3422 [Richard Levitte]
3423
3424 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3425 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3426 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3427 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3428 [Richard Levitte]
3429
3430 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3431 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3432 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3433 [Richard Levitte]
3434
3435 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3436 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3437 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3438 a memory area.
3439 [Richard Levitte]
3440
3441 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3442 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3443 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3444 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3445 [Richard Levitte]
3446
3447 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3448 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3449 the following flags are defined:
3450
3451 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3452 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3453 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3454 number.
3455
3456 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3457 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3458 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3459 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3460 returns zero.
3461 [Richard Levitte]
3462
3463 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3464 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3465 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3466 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3467 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3468 [Richard Levitte]
3469
3470 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3471 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3472 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3473 [Richard Levitte]
3474
3475 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3476 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3477 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3478 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3479 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3480 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3481 [Richard Levitte]
3482
3483 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3484 req and dirName.
3485 [Steve Henson]
3486
3487 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3488 [Steve Henson]
3489
3490 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3491 [Steve Henson]
3492
3493 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3494 [Steve Henson]
3495
3496 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3497 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3498 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3499 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3500 default implementation more easily.
3501 [Geoff Thorpe]
3502
3503 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3504 in config files.
3505 [Steve Henson]
3506
3507 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3508 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3509 [Richard Levitte]
3510
3511 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3512 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3513 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3514 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3515
3516 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3517 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3518 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3519 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3520 [Steve Henson]
3521
3522 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3523 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3524 to do it.
3525 [Richard Levitte]
3526
3527 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3528 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3529 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3530 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3531 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3532 scalar * generator).
3533 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3534
3535 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3536 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3537 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3538 correctly.
3539 [Steve Henson]
3540
3541 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3542 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3543 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3544 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3545 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3546 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3547 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3548 linker additions, eg;
3549 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3550 [Geoff Thorpe]
3551
3552 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3553 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3554 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3555 [Geoff Thorpe]
3556
3557 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3558 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3559 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3560 via PR#459)
3561 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3562
3563 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3564 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3565 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3566 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3567 [Geoff Thorpe]
3568
3569 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3570 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3571 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3572 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3573 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3574 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3575 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3576 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3577 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3578 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3579
3580 Example for using the new callback interface:
3581
3582 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3583 void *my_arg = ...;
3584 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3585
3586 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3587
3588 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3589 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3590 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3591 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3592 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3593 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3594 */
3595
3596 [Geoff Thorpe]
3597
3598 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3599 available to TLS with the number defined in
3600 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3601 [Richard Levitte]
3602
3603 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3604 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3605
3606 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3607 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3608 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3609 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3610
3611 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3612 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3613
3614 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3615 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3616 well.
3617 [Richard Levitte]
3618
3619 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3620 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3621 [Richard Levitte]
3622
3623 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3624 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3625 and a macro that behave like
3626 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3627
3628 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3629 [Nils Larsch]
3630
3631 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3632 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3633 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3634 if applicable.
3635 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3636
3637 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3638 [Bodo Moeller]
3639
3640 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3641 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3642 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3643 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3644 directory engines/.
3645 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3646 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3647 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3648 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3649 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3650 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3651 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3652 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3653
3654 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3655 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3656 [Richard Levitte]
3657
3658 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3659 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3660
3661 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3662 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3663 files while avoiding the low level API.
3664
3665 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3666 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3667 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3668 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3669
3670 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3671 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3672 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3673 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3674 instead of the low level API.
3675 [Steve Henson]
3676
3677 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3678 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3679 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3680 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3681 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3682 PKCS#7 code.
3683
3684 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3685 down to the template encoder.
3686 [Steve Henson]
3687
3688 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3689 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3690 [Bodo Moeller]
3691
3692 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3693 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3694 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3695 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3696
3697 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3698 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3699
3700 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3701 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3702
3703 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3704 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3705 [Bodo Moeller]
3706
3707 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3708 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3709 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3710 [Bodo Moeller]
3711
3712 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3713 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3714
3715 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3716 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3717
3718 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3719 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3720 New EC_METHOD:
3721
3722 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3723
3724 New API functions:
3725
3726 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3727 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3728 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3729 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3730 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3731 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3732
3733 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3734 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3735 enable it).
3736
3737 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3738 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3739 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3740 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3741 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3742 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3743 various internal method names.)
3744
3745 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3746 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3747
3748 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3749 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3750
3751 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3752 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3753
3754 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3755 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3756 methods are undefined.
3757
3758 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3759 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3760
3761 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3762 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3763 length of the modulus.
3764
3765 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3766 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3767
3768 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3769 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3770
3771 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3772 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3773
3774 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3775 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3776 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3777
3778 BN_GF2m_add
3779 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3780 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3781 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3782 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3783 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3784 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3785 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3786 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3787 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3788
3789 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3790 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3791
3792 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3793 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3794 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3795 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3796 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3797 where
3798 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3799 This applies to the following functions:
3800
3801 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3802 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3803 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3804 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3805 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3806 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3807 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3808 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3809 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3810 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3811
3812 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3813
3814 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3815 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3816
3817 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3818
3819 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3820 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3821 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3822 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3823 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3824
3825 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3826 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3827
3828 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3829 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3830 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3831
3832 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3833 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3834
3835 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3836 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3837 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3838 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3839 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3840
3841 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3842 functions
3843 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3844 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3845 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3846 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3847 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3848 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3849 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3850 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3851 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3852 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3853 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3854 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3855
3856 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3857 functions
3858 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3859 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3860 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3861 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3862 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3863
3864 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3865 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3866 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3867 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3868
3869 *) Add functions
3870 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3871 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3872 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3873 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3874 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3875 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3876 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3877
3878 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3879 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3880 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3881 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3882 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3883 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3884 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3885 adding different types of curves.
3886 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3887
3888 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3889 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3890 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3891 [Bodo Moeller]
3892
3893 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3894 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3895
3896 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3897 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3898 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3899 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3900
3901 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3902
3903 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3904 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3905
3906 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3907 library. Most notably,
3908 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3909 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3910 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3911 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3912 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3913 extracted before the specific public key;
3914 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3915 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3916
3917 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3918 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3919 function
3920 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3921 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3922 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3923 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3924 accessed via
3925 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3926 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3927 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3928
3929 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3930 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3931 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3932 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3933 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3934 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3935 differing sizes.
3936 [Richard Levitte]
3937
3938 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3939
3940 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3941 sensitive data.
3942 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3943
3944 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3945 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3946 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3947 [Bodo Moeller]
3948
3949 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3950 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3951 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3952 [Victor Duchovni]
3953
3954 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3955 [Steve Henson]
3956
3957 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3958 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3959 [Steve Henson]
3960
3961 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3962 run algorithm test programs.
3963 [Steve Henson]
3964
3965 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3966 [Steve Henson]
3967
3968 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3969 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3970 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3971 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3972 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3973 [Bodo Moeller]
3974
3975 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3976 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3977 [Steve Henson]
3978
3979 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3980
3981 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3982 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3983 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3984
3985 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3986 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3987
3988 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3989 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3990
3991 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3992 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3993 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3994
3995 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3996 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3997 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3998 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3999 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4000 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4001 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4002 [Bodo Moeller]
4003
4004 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4005
4006 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4007 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4008
4009 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4010 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4011 undesirable limitations.
4012 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4013
4014 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4015
4016 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4017 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4018 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4019
4020 The latter two were purportedly from
4021 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4022 appear there.
4023
4024 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4025 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4026 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4027 [Bodo Moeller]
4028
4029 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4030 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4031 [Bodo Moeller]
4032
4033 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4034
4035 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4036 module in FIPS mode.
4037 [Steve Henson]
4038
4039 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4040 [Steve Henson]
4041
4042 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4043 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4044 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4045 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4046 [Steve Henson]
4047
4048 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4049
4050 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4051 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4052 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4053 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4054 the difference induced by this change.
4055 [Andy Polyakov]
4056
4057 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4058
4059 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4060 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4061 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4062 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4063 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4064
4065 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4066 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4067 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4068
4069 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4070 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4071 [Steve Henson]
4072
4073 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4074 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4075 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4076 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4077 biased k.)
4078 [Bodo Moeller]
4079
4080 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4081 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4082 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4083 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4084 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4085
4086 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4087 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4088 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4089 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4090 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4091 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4092
4093 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4094
4095 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4096 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4097 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4098 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4099 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4100 [Bodo Moeller]
4101
4102 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4103 clients need.
4104 [Steve Henson]
4105
4106 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4107 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4108 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4109 [Steve Henson]
4110
4111 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4112 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4113 structures constant.
4114 [Steve Henson]
4115
4116 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4117
4118 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4119 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4120
4121 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4122 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4123 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4124 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4125 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4126 some needed definitions.
4127 [Steve Henson]
4128
4129 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4130 [Ulf Möller]
4131
4132 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4133 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4134 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4135 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4136 [Richard Levitte]
4137
4138 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4139
4140 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4141 server and client random values. Previously
4142 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4143 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4144
4145 This change has negligible security impact because:
4146
4147 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4148 data.
4149
4150 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4151 handshake.
4152
4153 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4154 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4155 values.
4156
4157 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4158 to our attention.
4159
4160 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4161
4162 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4163 [Ulf Möller]
4164
4165 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4166 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4167 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4168
4169 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4170 [Steve Henson]
4171
4172 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4173 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4174 [Andy Polyakov]
4175
4176 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4177 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4178 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4179
4180 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4181 [Steve Henson]
4182
4183 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4184 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4185 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4186 certificates.
4187 [Steve Henson]
4188
4189 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4190 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4191 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4192 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4193
4194 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4195 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4196 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4197 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4198 been given)
4199 [Richard Levitte]
4200
4201 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4202
4203 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4204 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4205 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4206 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4207 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4208 [Steve Henson]
4209
4210 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4211 [Steve Henson]
4212
4213 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4214 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4215
4216 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4217 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4218 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4219 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4220 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4221 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4222 rather than being initialized to 1.
4223 [Steve Henson]
4224
4225 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4226
4227 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4228 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4229 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4230
4231 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4232 (CVE-2004-0112)
4233 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4234
4235 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4236 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4237 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4238 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4239 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4240 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4241 [Richard Levitte]
4242
4243 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4244 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4245 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4246 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4247 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4248 for these cases.
4249 [Steve Henson]
4250
4251 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4252 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4253 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4254 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4255 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4256 [Steve Henson]
4257
4258 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4259 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4260 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4261 < 0.9.7.
4262 [Steve Henson]
4263
4264 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4265 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4266
4267 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4268 [Steve Henson]
4269
4270 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4271
4272 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4273
4274 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4275 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4276
4277 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4278
4279 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4280 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4281
4282 [Steve Henson]
4283
4284 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4285 exiting on the first error in a request.
4286 [Steve Henson]
4287
4288 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4289 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4290 specifications.
4291 [Steve Henson]
4292
4293 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4294 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4295 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4296 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4297
4298 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4299 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4300 [Richard Levitte]
4301
4302 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4303 blocks during encryption.
4304 [Richard Levitte]
4305
4306 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4307 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4308 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4309 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4310 certain size.
4311 [Steve Henson]
4312
4313 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4314 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4315 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4316 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4317 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4318 parser.
4319 [Steve Henson]
4320
4321 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4322
4323 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4324 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4325 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4326 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4327 [Bodo Moeller]
4328
4329 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4330 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4331 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4332 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4333 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4334
4335 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4336 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4337 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4338 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4339 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4340 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4341 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4342 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4343 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4344 [Bodo Moeller]
4345
4346 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4347 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4348 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4349 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4350 [Geoff Thorpe]
4351
4352 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4353 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4354 [Ulf Moeller]
4355
4356 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4357
4358 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4359 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4360 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4361 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4362 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4363
4364 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4365 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4366 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4367
4368 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4369 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4370 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4371 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4372 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4373
4374 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4375 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4376 used by default when no-err is given.
4377 [Richard Levitte]
4378
4379 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4380 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4381
4382 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4383 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4384 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4385 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4386 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4387
4388 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4389 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4390 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4391 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4392
4393 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4394
4395 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4396
4397 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4398
4399 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4400 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4401 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4402 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4403 root is omitted).
4404 [Steve Henson]
4405
4406 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4407 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4408
4409 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4410 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4411 [Steve Henson]
4412
4413 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4414 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4415 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4416 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4417 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4418
4419 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4420 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4421 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4422 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4423 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4424 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4425 followup to PR #377.
4426 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4427
4428 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4429 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4430 [Andy Polyakov]
4431
4432 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4433 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4434 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4435 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4436
4437 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4438
4439 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4440 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4441
4442 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4443 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4444 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4445 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4446 client and server.
4447 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4448 PR #377.
4449 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4450
4451 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4452 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4453 removed entirely.
4454 [Richard Levitte]
4455
4456 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4457 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4458 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4459 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4460 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4461 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4462 of libcrypto.
4463 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4464 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4465 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4466 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4467 have to be made anyway).
4468 [Richard Levitte]
4469
4470 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4471 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4472 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4473 [Steve Henson]
4474
4475 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4476 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4477 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4478 [Richard Levitte]
4479
4480 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4481 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4482 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4483
4484 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4485 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4486 edit numbers of the version.
4487 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4488
4489 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4490 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4491 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4492
4493 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4494 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4495
4496 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4497 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4498 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4499
4500 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4501 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4502
4503 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4504 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4505
4506 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4507 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4508
4509 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4510 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4511
4512 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4513 overflows.
4514 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4515
4516 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4517 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4518 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4519
4520 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4521 representations in a platform independent manner.
4522 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4523
4524 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4525 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4526 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4527
4528 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4529 indents.
4530 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4531
4532 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4533 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4534
4535 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4536 full. Fixed.
4537 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4538
4539 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4540 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4541 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4542
4543 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4544 unconditionally).
4545 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4546
4547 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4548 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4549
4550 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4551 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4552
4553 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4554 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4555
4556 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4557 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4558
4559 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4560 CBCParameter.
4561 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4562
4563 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4564 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4565
4566 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4567 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4568
4569 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4570 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4571 exploitable.
4572 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4573
4574 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4575 the 0.9.6 release series:
4576
4577 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4578 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4579 (CVE-2002-0657)
4580 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4581
4582 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4583 [Richard Levitte]
4584
4585 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4586 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4587
4588 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4589 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4590
4591 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4592 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4593 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4594 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4595
4596 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4597 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4598 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4599
4600 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4601 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4602 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4603 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4604
4605 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4606 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4607 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4608 some local tweaks:
4609
4610 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4611 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4612 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4613 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4614 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4615 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4616 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4617 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4618 done
4619
4620 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4621 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4622 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4623 [Richard Levitte]
4624
4625 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4626 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4627 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4628 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4629 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4630
4631 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4632 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4633
4634 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4635 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4636 [Richard Levitte]
4637
4638 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4639 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4640 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4641 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4642 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4643 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4644 [Steve Henson]
4645
4646 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4647 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4648 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4649 [Steve Henson]
4650
4651 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4652 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4653 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4654
4655 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4656 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4657 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4658 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4659 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4660 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4661 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4662 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4663
4664 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4665 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4666 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4667 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4668 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4669 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4670 [Steve Henson]
4671
4672 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4673 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4674 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4675 declaration has been changed from
4676 int (*cb)()
4677 into
4678 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4679 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4680 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4681 has been changed into
4682 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4683
4684 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4685 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4686 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4687
4688 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4689 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4690
4691 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4692 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4693 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4694 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4695 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4696 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4697 always load it have also been added.
4698 [Steve Henson]
4699
4700 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4701 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4702 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4703
4704 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4705
4706 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4707 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4708 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4709
4710 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4711 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4712 command line option can be used to specify an
4713 alternative file.
4714 [Steve Henson]
4715
4716 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4717 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4718 [Steve Henson]
4719
4720 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4721 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4722 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4723 [Steve Henson]
4724
4725 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4726 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4727 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4728 to work with the new engine framework.
4729 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4730
4731 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4732 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4733 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4734 to work with the new engine framework.
4735 [Richard Levitte]
4736
4737 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4738 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4739 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4740
4741 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4742 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4743
4744 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4745 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4746 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4747 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4748 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4749 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4750
4751 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4752 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4753
4754 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4755 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4756
4757 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4758 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4759 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4760 [Ben Laurie]
4761
4762 *) Add new functions
4763 ERR_peek_last_error
4764 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4765 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4766 These are similar to
4767 ERR_peek_error
4768 ERR_peek_error_line
4769 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4770 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4771 still in the error queue.
4772 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4773
4774 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4775 like:
4776 default_algorithms = ALL
4777 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4778 [Steve Henson]
4779
4780 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4781 [Steve Henson]
4782
4783 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4784 [Steve Henson]
4785
4786 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4787 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4788 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4789 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4790
4791 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4792 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4793
4794 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4795 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4796
4797 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4798 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4799 [Bodo Moeller]
4800
4801 *) New functions/macros
4802
4803 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4804 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4805 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4806 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4807
4808 to request calling a callback function
4809
4810 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4811 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4812
4813 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4814 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4815 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4816 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4817 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4818 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4819 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4820 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4821 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4822 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4823
4824 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4825 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4826 [Bodo Moeller]
4827
4828 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4829 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4830 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4831 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4832 the configuration scripts.
4833
4834 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4835 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4836 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4837
4838 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4839 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4840
4841 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4842 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4843 when reusing an existing buffer.
4844 [Bodo Moeller]
4845
4846 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4847 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4848 [Steve Henson]
4849
4850 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4851 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4852 [Ben Laurie]
4853
4854 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4855 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4856 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4857 has the same effect.
4858 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4859
4860 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4861 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4862 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4863 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4864 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4865 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4866 exception.
4867
4868 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4869 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4870 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4871 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4872
4873 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4874 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4875 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4876 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4877
4878 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4879 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4880 won't work.
4881
4882 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4883 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4884 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4885 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4886 default), and then completely removed.
4887 [Richard Levitte]
4888
4889 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4890 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4891 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4892 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4893 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4894 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4895 particular extension is supported.
4896 [Steve Henson]
4897
4898 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4899 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4900 [Steve Henson]
4901
4902 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4903 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4904 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4905 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4906 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4907 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4908 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4909 requires the destination to be valid.
4910
4911 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4912 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4913 [Steve Henson]
4914
4915 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4916 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4917 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4918 [Bodo Moeller]
4919
4920 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4921 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4922
4923 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4924 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4925 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4926 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4927 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4928 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4929 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4930 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4931 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4932 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4933 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4934 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4935 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4936 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4937 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4938 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4939 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4940 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4941 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4942 the new code.
4943 [Geoff Thorpe]
4944
4945 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4946 [Steve Henson]
4947
4948 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4949 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4950 become part of libeay.num as well.
4951 [Richard Levitte]
4952
4953 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4954 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4955 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4956 false once a handshake has been completed.
4957 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4958 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4959 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4960 client has followed the request.)
4961 [Bodo Moeller]
4962
4963 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4964 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4965 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4966 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4967
4968 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4969 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4970 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4971 [Bodo Moeller]
4972
4973 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4974 [Steve Henson]
4975
4976 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4977 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4978 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4979 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4980
4981 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4982 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4983 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4984
4985 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4986 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4987 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4988 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4989 [Geoff Thorpe]
4990
4991 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4992 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4993 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4994 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4995 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4996 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4997 [Geoff Thorpe]
4998
4999 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5000 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5001 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5002 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5003 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5004 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5005 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5006 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5007 [Geoff Thorpe]
5008
5009 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5010 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5011 [Geoff Thorpe]
5012
5013 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5014 [Ben Laurie]
5015
5016 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5017 md_data void pointer.
5018 [Ben Laurie]
5019
5020 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5021 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5022 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5023 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5024 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5025 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5026 [Ben Laurie]
5027
5028 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5029 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5030 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5031 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5032 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5033 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5034 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5035 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5036 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5037 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5038 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5039 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5040 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5041 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5042 rather than letting it slide.
5043
5044 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5045 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5046 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5047 [Geoff Thorpe]
5048
5049 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5050 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5051 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5052 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5053 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5054 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5055 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5056 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5057 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5058 [Geoff Thorpe]
5059
5060 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5061 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5062 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5063 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5064 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5065
5066 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5067 [Geoff Thorpe]
5068
5069 *) Add EVP test program.
5070 [Ben Laurie]
5071
5072 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5073 [Ben Laurie]
5074
5075 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5076 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5077 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5078 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5079 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5080 [Steve Henson]
5081
5082 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5083 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5084 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5085 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5086 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5087 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5088 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5089
5090 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5091 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5092 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5093 Usage example:
5094
5095 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5096
5097 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5098 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5099 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5100 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5101 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5102
5103 [Ben Laurie]
5104
5105 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5106 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5107 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5108 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5109 anyway): E.g.,
5110
5111 des_key_schedule ks;
5112
5113 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5114 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5115
5116 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5117 [Ben Laurie]
5118
5119 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5120 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5121 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5122 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5123 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5124 functions prevents this.
5125 [Steve Henson]
5126
5127 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5128 [Ben Laurie]
5129
5130 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5131 correct _ecb suffix.
5132 [Ben Laurie]
5133
5134 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5135 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5136 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5137 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5138 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5139 [Steve Henson]
5140
5141 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5142 [Richard Levitte]
5143
5144 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5145 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5146 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5147 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5148
5149 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5150 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5151
5152 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5153 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5154 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5155 via Richard Levitte]
5156
5157 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5158 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5159 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5160 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5161 [Geoff Thorpe]
5162
5163 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5164 Before:
5165 encrypt
5166 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
5167 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
5168 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
5169 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
5170 decrypt
5171 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
5172 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
5173 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
5174 After:
5175 encrypt
5176 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
5177 decrypt
5178 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
5179 [Ben Laurie]
5180
5181 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5182 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5183
5184 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5185 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5186 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5187 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5188 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5189 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5190 [Steve Henson]
5191
5192 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5193 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5194 [Richard Levitte]
5195
5196 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5197 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5198 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5199 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5200
5201 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5202 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5203 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5204 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5205 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5206 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5207 callback.
5208 [Richard Levitte]
5209
5210 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5211 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5212 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5213 and interrupts/cancellations.
5214 [Richard Levitte]
5215
5216 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5217 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5218 [Steve Henson]
5219
5220 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5221 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5222 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5223
5224 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5225 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5226 kind of callback.
5227 [Richard Levitte]
5228
5229 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5230 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5231 than this minimum value is recommended.
5232 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5233
5234 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5235 that are easily reachable.
5236 [Richard Levitte]
5237
5238 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5239 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5240
5241 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5242
5243 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5244 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5245 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5246 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5247 [Steve Henson]
5248
5249 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5250 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5251 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5252 [Steve Henson]
5253
5254 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5255 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5256 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5257 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5258 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5259 internally such as S/MIME.
5260
5261 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5262 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5263 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5264
5265 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5266 applications.
5267 [Steve Henson]
5268
5269 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5270 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5271 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5272 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5273
5274 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5275
5276 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5277
5278 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5279 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5280 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5281 handling.
5282 [Steve Henson]
5283
5284 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5285 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5286 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5287 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5288 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5289 a window system and the like.
5290 [Richard Levitte]
5291
5292 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5293 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5294 [Geoff]
5295
5296 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5297 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5298 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5299 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5300 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5301 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5302 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5303 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5304 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5305 ENGINE structure.
5306 [Geoff]
5307
5308 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5309 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5310 tag cache.
5311 [Steve Henson]
5312
5313 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5314 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5315 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5316 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5317 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5318 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5319 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5320 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5321 [Geoff]
5322
5323 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5324 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5325 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5326 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5327 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5328 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5329 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5330 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5331 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5332 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5333 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5334 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5335 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5336 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5337 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5338 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5339 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5340 [Geoff]
5341
5342 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5343 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5344 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5345 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5346 internal engine_int.h header.
5347 [Geoff]
5348
5349 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5350 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5351 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5352 modify their own ones).
5353 [Geoff]
5354
5355 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5356 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5357 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5358 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5359 later on via ctrl() commands.
5360 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5361 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5362 structural references.
5363 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5364 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5365 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5366 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5367 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5368 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5369 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5370 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5371 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5372 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5373 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5374 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5375 [Geoff]
5376
5377 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5378 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5379 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5380 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5381 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5382 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5383 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5384 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5385 [Bodo Moeller]
5386
5387 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5388 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5389 [Steve Henson]
5390
5391 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5392 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5393 [Steve Henson]
5394
5395 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5396 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5397 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5398 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5399 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5400 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5401 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5402 [Steve Henson]
5403
5404 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5405 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5406 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5407 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5408 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5409
5410 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5411 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5412 generator).
5413 [Bodo Moeller]
5414
5415 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5416
5417 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5418 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5419 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5420
5421 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5422 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5423
5424 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5425 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5426 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5427
5428 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5429 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5430
5431 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5432 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5433
5434 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5435
5436 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5437 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5438 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5439 [Bodo Moeller]
5440
5441 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5442 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5443 [Richard Levitte]
5444
5445 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5446 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5447 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5448 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5449 is 40 of more characters long.
5450 [Steve Henson]
5451
5452 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5453 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5454 pointers.
5455 [Steve Henson]
5456
5457 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5458 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5459 [Bodo Moeller]
5460
5461 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5462 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5463 might.
5464 [Steve Henson]
5465
5466 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5467
5468 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5469 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5470
5471 ASN1 error codes
5472 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5473 ...
5474 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5475 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5476 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5477 ...
5478 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5479 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5480
5481 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5482 [Bodo Moeller]
5483
5484 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5485 suffices.
5486 [Bodo Moeller]
5487
5488 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5489 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5490 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5491 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5492 and
5493 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5494
5495 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5496 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5497
5498 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5499 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5500 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5501 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5502 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5503 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5504
5505 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5506 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5507
5508 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5509 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5510
5511 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5512 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5513
5514 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5515 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5516 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5517 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5518
5519 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5520 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5521
5522 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5523 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5524
5525 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5526 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5527 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5528 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5529 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5530 [Richard Levitte]
5531
5532 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5533 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5534 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5535 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5536 [Steve Henson]
5537
5538 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5539 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5540 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5541 trust settings.
5542 [Steve Henson]
5543
5544 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5545 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5546 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5547 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5548 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5549 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5550 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5551 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5552 ocsp utility.
5553 [Steve Henson]
5554
5555 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5556 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5557 [Steve Henson]
5558
5559 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5560 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5561 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5562 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5563 [Steve Henson]
5564
5565 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5566 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5567 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5568 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5569 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5570 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5571 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5572 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5573 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5574 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5575 [Steve Henson]
5576
5577 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5578 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5579 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5580 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5581 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5582 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5583 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5584 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5585
5586 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5587 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5588 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5589 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5590 [Richard Levitte]
5591
5592 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5593 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5594 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5595 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5596 opensslconf.h.
5597 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5598 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5599 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5600 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5601 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5602 what is available.
5603 [Richard Levitte]
5604
5605 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5606 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5607 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5608 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5609 auto incremented.
5610 [Steve Henson]
5611
5612 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5613 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5614 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5615 [Steve Henson]
5616
5617 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5618 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5619 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5620 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5621 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5622 [Steve Henson]
5623
5624 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5625 [Steve Henson]
5626
5627 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5628 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5629 option to ocsp utility.
5630 [Steve Henson]
5631
5632 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5633 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5634 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5635 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5636 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5637 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5638 the request is nonce-less.
5639 [Steve Henson]
5640
5641 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5642 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5643 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5644 [Bodo Moeller]
5645
5646 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5647 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5648 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5649 [Steve Henson]
5650
5651 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5652 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5653 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5654 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5655 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5656 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5657
5658 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5659 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5660 appear to exist.
5661 [Steve Henson]
5662
5663 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5664 additional certificates supplied.
5665 [Steve Henson]
5666
5667 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5668 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5669 signature against.
5670 [Richard Levitte]
5671
5672 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5673 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5674 AES OIDs.
5675
5676 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5677 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5678 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5679 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5680 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5681 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5682 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5683 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5684 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5685
5686 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5687 request to response.
5688 [Steve Henson]
5689
5690 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5691 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5692 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5693 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5694 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5695 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5696 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5697 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5698 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5699 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5700 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5701 [Steve Henson]
5702
5703 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5704 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5705 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5706 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5707 [Steve Henson]
5708
5709 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5710 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5711
5712 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5713 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5714 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5715 [Steve Henson]
5716
5717 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5718 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5719 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5720 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5721 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5722
5723 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5724 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5725 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5726 [Steve Henson]
5727
5728 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5729 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5730 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5731 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5732 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5733 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5734 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5735 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5736
5737 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5738 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5739 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5740 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5741 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5742 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5743 [Steve Henson]
5744
5745 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5746 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5747 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5748 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5749 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5750 printout format cleaned up.
5751 [Steve Henson]
5752
5753 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5754 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5755 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5756 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5757 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5758 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5759 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5760 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5761 [Steve Henson]
5762
5763 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5764 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5765 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5766 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5767 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5768 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5769 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5770 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5771 [Steve Henson]
5772
5773 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5774 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5775 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5776 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5777 section to use.
5778 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5779
5780 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5781 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5782 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5783 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5784 [Steve Henson]
5785
5786 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5787 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5788 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5789 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5790 in the index file.
5791 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5792
5793 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5794 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5795 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5796 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5797
5798 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5799 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5800
5801 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5802 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5803 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5804 [Steve Henson]
5805
5806 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5807 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5808 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5809 [Bodo Moeller]
5810
5811 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5812 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5813 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5814 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5815 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5816 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5817 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5818 functions are provided:
5819
5820 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5821 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5822 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5823 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5824
5825 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5826 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5827 extended allocation function is enabled.
5828 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5829 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5830 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5831
5832 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5833 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5834 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5835 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5836 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5837 [Geoff Thorpe]
5838
5839 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5840 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5841 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5842 be queried.
5843 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5844 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5845 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5846 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5847
5848 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5849 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5850 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5851 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5852 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5853 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5854 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5855 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5856 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5857 [Richard Levitte]
5858
5859 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5860 provide utility functions which an application needing
5861 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5862 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5863 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5864
5865 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5866 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5867 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5868 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5869 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5870 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5871 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5872 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5873 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5874
5875 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5876 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5877 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5878 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5879 [Steve Henson]
5880
5881 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5882 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5883 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5884 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5885 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5886 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5887 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5888 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5889 will be added elsewhere.
5890 [Steve Henson]
5891
5892 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5893 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5894 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5895 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5896 [Steve Henson]
5897
5898 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5899 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5900 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5901 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5902 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5903 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5904 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5905 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5906 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5907 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5908 to produce the required SET OF.
5909 [Steve Henson]
5910
5911 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5912 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5913 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5914 [Richard Levitte]
5915
5916 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5917 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5918 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5919 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5920 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5921 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5922 [Steve Henson]
5923
5924 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5925 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5926 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5927 [Steve Henson]
5928
5929 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5930 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5931 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5932 [Richard Levitte]
5933
5934 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5935 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5936 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5937 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5938 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5939 [Steve Henson]
5940
5941 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5942 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5943 [Steve Henson]
5944
5945 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5946 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5947 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5948 certifcates and CRLs.
5949 [Steve Henson]
5950
5951 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5952 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5953 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5954 [Steve Henson]
5955
5956 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5957 entries for variables.
5958 [Steve Henson]
5959
5960 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5961 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5962 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5963 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5964 [Bodo Moeller]
5965
5966 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5967 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5968 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5969 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5970 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5971 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5972 [Bodo Moeller]
5973
5974 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5975 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5976
5977 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5978 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5979 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5980 [Steve Henson]
5981
5982 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5983 print routines.
5984 [Steve Henson]
5985
5986 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5987 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5988 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5989 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5990 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5991 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5992 [Steve Henson]
5993
5994 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5995 [Steve Henson]
5996
5997 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5998 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5999 for now but they will eventually go away.
6000 [Steve Henson]
6001
6002 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6003 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6004 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6005 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6006 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6007 has also been converted to the new form.
6008 [Steve Henson]
6009
6010 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6011 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6012 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6013 for negative moduli.
6014 [Bodo Moeller]
6015
6016 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6017 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6018 [Bodo Moeller]
6019
6020 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6021 set.
6022 [Bodo Moeller]
6023
6024 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6025 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6026 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6027 type-specific callbacks.
6028 [Geoff Thorpe]
6029
6030 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6031 RFC 2712.
6032 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6033 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6034
6035 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6036 in sections depending on the subject.
6037 [Richard Levitte]
6038
6039 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6040 Windows.
6041 [Richard Levitte]
6042
6043 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6044 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6045 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6046 be handled deterministically).
6047 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6048
6049 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6050 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6051 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6052 [Bodo Moeller]
6053
6054 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6055 [Bodo Moeller]
6056
6057 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6058 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6059 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6060 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6061 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6062 [Bodo Moeller]
6063
6064 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6065 sign of the number in question.
6066
6067 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6068
6069 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6070 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6071 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6072 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6073 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6074 [Bodo Moeller]
6075
6076 *) New function BN_swap.
6077 [Bodo Moeller]
6078
6079 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6080 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6081 results on negative inputs.
6082 [Bodo Moeller]
6083
6084 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6085 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6086 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6087 [Bodo Moeller]
6088
6089 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6090 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6091 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6092 and add new functions:
6093
6094 BN_nnmod
6095 BN_mod_sqr
6096 BN_mod_add
6097 BN_mod_add_quick
6098 BN_mod_sub
6099 BN_mod_sub_quick
6100 BN_mod_lshift1
6101 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6102 BN_mod_lshift
6103 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6104
6105 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6106
6107 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6108 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6109
6110 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6111 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6112 be reduced modulo m.
6113 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6114
6115 #if 0
6116 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6117 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6118 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6119
6120 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6121 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6122 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6123 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6124 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6125 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6126 differing sizes.
6127 [Richard Levitte]
6128 #endif
6129
6130 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6131 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6132 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6133 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6134 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6135
6136 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6137 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6138 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6139 cause any problems.
6140 [Bodo Moeller]
6141
6142 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6143 [Richard Levitte]
6144
6145 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6146 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6147 [Richard Levitte]
6148
6149 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6150 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6151 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6152 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6153 time)
6154 [Richard Levitte]
6155
6156 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6157 [Richard Levitte]
6158
6159 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6160 [Richard Levitte]
6161
6162 *) Add the following functions:
6163
6164 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6165 ENGINE_load_chil()
6166 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6167 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6168 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6169
6170 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6171 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6172 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6173 libraries unless it's really needed.
6174
6175 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6176 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6177 declarations (they differed!).
6178 [Richard Levitte]
6179
6180 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6181 [Richard Levitte]
6182
6183 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6184 [Richard Levitte]
6185
6186 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6187 [Bodo Moeller]
6188
6189 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6190 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6191 [Richard Levitte]
6192
6193 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6194 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6195 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6196
6197 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6198 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6199 [Richard Levitte]
6200
6201 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6202 [Richard Levitte]
6203
6204 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6205 [Richard Levitte]
6206
6207 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6208 [Ben Laurie]
6209
6210 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6211 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6212 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6213
6214 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6215 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6216 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6217 different shared library filenames on each system.
6218 [Geoff Thorpe]
6219
6220 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6221 [Richard Levitte]
6222
6223 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6224 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6225 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6226 of two sections.
6227 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6228
6229 *) NCONF changes.
6230 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6231 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6232 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6233 binary backward compatibility.
6234 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6235 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6236 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6237 LDAP server.
6238 [Richard Levitte]
6239
6240 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6241 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6242 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6243 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6244 this case.
6245 [Steve Henson]
6246
6247 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6248 [Ben Laurie]
6249
6250 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6251 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6252 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6253 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6254 set.
6255 [Steve Henson]
6256
6257 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6258 [Richard Levitte]
6259
6260 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6261
6262 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6263 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6264 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6265
6266 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6267
6268 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6269
6270 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6271 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6272 [Steve Henson]
6273
6274 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6275
6276 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6277
6278 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6279 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6280
6281 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6282 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6283
6284 [Steve Henson]
6285
6286 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6287 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6288 specifications.
6289 [Steve Henson]
6290
6291 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6292 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6293 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6294 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6295
6296 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6297 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6298 [Richard Levitte]
6299
6300 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6301
6302 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6303 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6304 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6305 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6306 [Bodo Moeller]
6307
6308 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6309 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6310 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6311 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6312 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6313
6314 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6315 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6316 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6317 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6318 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6319 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6320 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6321 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6322 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6323 [Bodo Moeller]
6324
6325 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6326
6327 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6328 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6329 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6330 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6331 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6332
6333 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6334 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6335 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6336
6337 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6338
6339 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6340 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6341 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6342 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6343 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6344 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6345 [Geoff Thorpe]
6346
6347 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6348 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6349 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6350 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6351 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6352 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6353
6354 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6355 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6356 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6357
6358 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6359 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6360 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6361 EVP_cleanup().
6362 [Richard Levitte]
6363
6364 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6365 being properly terminated.
6366 [Richard Levitte]
6367
6368 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6369 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6370 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6371 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6372
6373 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6374 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6375 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6376 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6377 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6378 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6379 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6380 change.
6381 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6382
6383 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6384 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6385 [Bodo Moeller]
6386
6387 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6388 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6389 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6390 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6391 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6392 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6393 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6394 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6395
6396 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6397 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6398 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6399 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6400 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6401
6402 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6403 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6404 [Steve Henson]
6405
6406 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6407
6408 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6409 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6410 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6411
6412 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6413
6414 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6415 and get fix the header length calculation.
6416 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6417 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6418 Steve Henson]
6419
6420 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6421 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6422 assertions could call abort()).
6423 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6424
6425 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6426
6427 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6428 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6429 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6430 supplied buffer.
6431 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6432
6433 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6434 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6435 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6436 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6437
6438 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6439 [Nils Larsch]
6440
6441 *) New option
6442 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6443 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6444 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6445
6446 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6447 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6448 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6449 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6450 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6451 applications.
6452 [Bodo Moeller]
6453
6454 *) Changes in security patch:
6455
6456 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6457 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6458 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6459 F30602-01-2-0537.
6460
6461 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6462 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6463 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6464 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6465 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6466
6467 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6468 happen in practice.
6469 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6470
6471 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6472 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6473 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6474
6475 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6476 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6477 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6478
6479 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6480 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6481 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6482
6483 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6484
6485 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6486 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6487 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6488
6489 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6490 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6491
6492 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6493 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6494 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6495 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6496 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6497 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6498 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6499
6500 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6501 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6502 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6503 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6504 [Bodo Moeller]
6505
6506 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6507 [Bodo Moeller]
6508
6509 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6510 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6511 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6512 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6513 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6514 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6515
6516 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6517 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6518 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6519 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6520 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6521 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6522
6523 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6524 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6525 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6526 BN_generate_prime().)
6527
6528 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6529 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6530 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6531 better.
6532 [Bodo Moeller]
6533
6534 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6535 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6536 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6537
6538 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6539 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6540 when using non-blocking I/O.
6541 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6542
6543 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6544 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6545
6546 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6547 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6548 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6549
6550 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6551 configuration for the versions before that.
6552 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6553
6554 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6555 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6556 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6557 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6558 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6559
6560 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6561 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6562 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6563 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6564
6565 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6566 value is 0.
6567 [Richard Levitte]
6568
6569 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6570 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6571 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6572
6573 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6574 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6575
6576 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6577 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6578 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6579 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6580 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6581 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6582 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6583 session cache.
6584
6585 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6586 using a local variable.
6587 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6588
6589 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6590 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6591 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6592
6593 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6594 [Richard Levitte]
6595
6596 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6597 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6598
6599 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6600 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6601 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6602
6603 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6604
6605 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6606 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6607 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6608 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6609 [Bodo Moeller]
6610
6611 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6612 present.
6613 [Steve Henson]
6614
6615 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6616 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6617 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6618 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6619 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6620
6621 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6622 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6623 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6624
6625 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6626 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6627 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6628
6629 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6630 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6631 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6632 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6633
6634 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6635 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6636 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6637 modules).
6638 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6639
6640 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6641 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6642 from 0.9.7.
6643 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6644
6645 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6646 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6647 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6648 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6649
6650 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6651 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6652 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6653 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6654
6655 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6656 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6657
6658 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6659 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6660 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6661 [Bodo Moeller]
6662
6663 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6664 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6665 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6666 become invalid.
6667 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6668
6669 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6670 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6671 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6672 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6673 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6674 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6675 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6676 [Bodo Moeller]
6677
6678 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6679 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6680 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6681 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6682
6683 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6684 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6685 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6686 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6687 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6688 the client will at least see that alert.
6689 [Bodo Moeller]
6690
6691 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6692 correctly.
6693 [Bodo Moeller]
6694
6695 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6696 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6697 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6698
6699 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6700 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6701 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6702 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6703 HelloRequest.
6704
6705 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6706 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6707 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6708
6709 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6710 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6711 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6712 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6713 may leak via logfiles.)
6714
6715 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6716 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6717 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6718 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6719 the legal range.
6720 [Bodo Moeller]
6721
6722 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6723 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6724 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6725
6726 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6727 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6728 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6729 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6730 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6731 [Bodo Moeller]
6732
6733 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6734 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6735
6736 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6737 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6738 followed by modular reduction.
6739 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6740
6741 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6742 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6743 [Bodo Moeller]
6744
6745 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6746 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6747 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6748 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6749 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6750
6751 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6752 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6753
6754 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6755 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6756 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6757
6758 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6759 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6760 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6761 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6762 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6763 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6764 automatically.
6765 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6766
6767 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6768 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6769 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6770 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6771 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6772
6773 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6774 [Andy Polyakov]
6775
6776 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6777 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6778 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6779 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6780 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6781 to allow the necessary settings.
6782 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6783
6784 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6785 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6786 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6787 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6788 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6789
6790 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6791 dh->length and always used
6792
6793 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6794
6795 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6796 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6797 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6798 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6799 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6800 dh->length.
6801
6802 So switch back to
6803
6804 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6805
6806 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6807 otherwise.
6808 [Bodo Moeller]
6809
6810 *) In
6811
6812 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6813 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6814 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6815 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6816
6817 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6818 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6819 always reject numbers >= n.
6820 [Bodo Moeller]
6821
6822 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6823 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6824 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6825 variable) is not atomic.
6826 [Bodo Moeller]
6827
6828 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6829 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6830 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6831 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6832
6833 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6834 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6835
6836 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6837 little-endian MIPS.
6838 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6839
6840 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6841 [Richard Levitte]
6842
6843 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6844
6845 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6846 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6847 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6848 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6849 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6850 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6851 to traverse all of 'state'.
6852
6853 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6854 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6855 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6856
6857 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6858 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6859
6860 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6861 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6862 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6863 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6864 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6865 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6866 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6867 further strengthens the PRNG.
6868 [Bodo Moeller]
6869
6870 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6871 [Andy Polyakov]
6872
6873 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6874 an error message in this case.
6875 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6876
6877 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6878 [Steve Henson]
6879
6880 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6881 positive and less than q.
6882 [Bodo Moeller]
6883
6884 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6885 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6886 that itself.
6887 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6888
6889 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6890 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6891 [Bodo Moeller]
6892
6893 *) Fix OAEP check.
6894 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6895
6896 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6897 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6898 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6899 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6900 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6901 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6902 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6903 paper.)
6904
6905 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6906 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6907 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6908 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6909
6910 Both problems are now fixed.
6911 [Bodo Moeller]
6912
6913 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6914 (previously it was 1024).
6915 [Bodo Moeller]
6916
6917 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6918 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6919 [Steve Henson]
6920
6921 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6922 [Steve Henson]
6923
6924 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6925 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6926 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6927 [Steve Henson]
6928
6929 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6930 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6931 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6932 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6933 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6934 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6935 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6936 environment variables.
6937
6938 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6939 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6940 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6941 [Bodo Moeller]
6942
6943 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6944 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6945 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6946 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6947 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6948 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6949 [Bodo Moeller]
6950
6951 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6952 versions of 'test'.
6953 [Bodo Moeller]
6954
6955 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6956
6957 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6958 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6959
6960 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6961 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6962 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6963 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6964 CygWin.
6965 [Richard Levitte]
6966
6967 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6968 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6969 amount of data available.
6970 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6971 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6972
6973 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6974 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6975 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6976 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6977 [Bodo Moeller]
6978
6979 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6980 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6981 and UnixWare.
6982 [Richard Levitte]
6983
6984 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6985 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6986 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6987 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6988 [Ulf Moeller]
6989
6990 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6991 [Andy Polyakov]
6992
6993 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6994 [Richard Levitte]
6995
6996 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6997 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6998 [Steve Henson]
6999 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7000
7001 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7002 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7003 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7004 (but broken) behaviour.
7005 [Steve Henson]
7006
7007 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7008 it when found.
7009 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7010
7011 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7012 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7013 [Bodo Moeller]
7014
7015 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7016 did not exist.
7017 [Bodo Moeller]
7018
7019 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7020 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7021
7022 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7023 [Richard Levitte]
7024
7025 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7026 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7027 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7028
7029 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7030 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7031 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7032 [Steve Henson]
7033
7034 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7035 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7036 [Ulf Moeller]
7037
7038 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7039 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7040
7041 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7042
7043 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7044
7045 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7046 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7047 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7048 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7049 [Bodo Moeller]
7050
7051 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7052 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7053
7054 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7055 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7056 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7057
7058 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7059 was empty.
7060 [Steve Henson]
7061 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7062
7063 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7064 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7065 but the code is actually correct.
7066 [Steve Henson]
7067
7068 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7069 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7070 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7071 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7072 and leaves the highest bit random.
7073 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7074
7075 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7076 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7077 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7078 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7079 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7080 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7081 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7082 [Bodo Moeller]
7083
7084 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7085 [Ulf Moeller]
7086
7087 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7088 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7089 [Steve Henson]
7090
7091 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7092 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7093 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7094 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7095 headers.
7096 [Richard Levitte]
7097
7098 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7099 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7100 and break the signature.
7101 [Steve Henson]
7102 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7103
7104 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7105 DH ciphersuites.
7106 [Steve Henson]
7107
7108 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7109 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7110 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7111 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7112 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7113 [Bodo Moeller]
7114
7115 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7116 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7117
7118 *) ./config script fixes.
7119 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7120
7121 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7122 [Bodo Moeller]
7123
7124 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7125 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7126 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7127 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7128 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7129
7130 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7131 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7132 [Bodo Moeller]
7133
7134 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7135 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7136 [Steve Henson]
7137
7138 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7139 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7140 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7141 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7142
7143 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7144 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7145
7146 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7147 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7148 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7149 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7150 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7151
7152 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7153 [Bodo Moeller]
7154
7155 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7156 [Ulf Möller]
7157
7158 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7159 [Ulf Möller]
7160
7161 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7162 [Bodo Moeller]
7163
7164 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7165 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7166 [Bodo Moeller]
7167
7168 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7169 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7170 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7171 result of the server certificate verification.)
7172 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7173
7174 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7175 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7176 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7177 [Bodo Moeller]
7178
7179 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7180 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7181 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7182 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7183 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7184 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7185 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7186 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7187 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7188 [Bodo Moeller]
7189
7190 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7191 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7192 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7193 happening the other way round.
7194 [Geoff Thorpe]
7195
7196 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7197 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7198 [Bodo Moeller]
7199
7200 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7201 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7202 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7203 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7204 [Richard Levitte]
7205
7206 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7207 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7208
7209 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7210
7211 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7212 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7213 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7214 that.
7215
7216 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7217
7218 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7219
7220 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7221 static ones.
7222 [Richard Levitte]
7223
7224 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7225
7226 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7227 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7228 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7229 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7230 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7231
7232 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7233 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7234 matter what.
7235 [Richard Levitte]
7236
7237 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7238 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7239
7240 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7241
7242 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7243 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7244 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7245 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7246 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7247 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7248 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7249 by the Finished messages.
7250 [Bodo Moeller]
7251
7252 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7253 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7254
7255 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7256 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7257 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7258 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7259 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7260 appropriately.
7261 [Steve Henson]
7262
7263 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7264 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7265 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7266 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7267 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7268 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7269 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7270 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7271 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7272 together.
7273 [Steve Henson]
7274
7275 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7276 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7277 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7278 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7279
7280 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7281 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7282 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7283 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7284 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7285 the answer.
7286
7287 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7288 been tested well enough.
7289 [Richard Levitte]
7290
7291 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7292 it can return incorrect results.
7293 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7294 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7295 [Bodo Moeller]
7296
7297 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7298 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7299 include zero length content when signing messages.
7300 [Steve Henson]
7301
7302 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7303 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7304 [Bodo Möller]
7305
7306 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7307 [Richard Levitte]
7308
7309 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7310 wrong sign.
7311 [Ulf Möller]
7312
7313 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7314 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7315 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7316 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7317 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7318 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7319 [Richard Levitte]
7320
7321 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7322 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7323
7324 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7325 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7326
7327 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7328 random number < q in the DSA library.
7329 [Ulf Möller]
7330
7331 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7332 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7333 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7334 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7335 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7336 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7337 just makes things more complicated.)
7338 [Bodo Moeller]
7339
7340 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7341 from EGD.
7342 [Ben Laurie]
7343
7344 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7345 work better on such systems.
7346 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7347
7348 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7349 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7350 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7351 [Steve Henson]
7352
7353 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7354 if there was more than one signature.
7355 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7356
7357 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7358 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7359 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7360 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7361 [Richard Levitte]
7362
7363 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7364 rather than always using the current time.
7365 [Steve Henson]
7366
7367 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7368 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7369 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7370 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7371 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7372 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7373
7374 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7375 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7376
7377 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7378
7379 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7380 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7381 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7382 the same hash value.
7383
7384 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7385 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7386 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7387 with X509_STORE internally.
7388
7389 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7390 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7391
7392 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7393 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7394 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7395 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7396 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7397 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7398 entirely (maybe later...).
7399
7400 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7401
7402 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7403 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7404 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7405 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7406 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7407 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7408 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7409 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7410
7411 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7412 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7413
7414 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7415 to customise the verify behaviour.
7416 [Steve Henson]
7417
7418 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7419 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7420 [Steve Henson]
7421
7422 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7423 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7424 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7425 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7426 request is improperly encoded.
7427 [Steve Henson]
7428
7429 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7430 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7431 BIO_write(b, ...).
7432
7433 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7434 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7435
7436 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7437 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7438 words set to zero.)
7439 [Bodo Moeller]
7440
7441 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7442 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7443 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7444 [Bodo Moeller]
7445
7446 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7447 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7448 BIO/fp routines also added.
7449 [Steve Henson]
7450
7451 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7452 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7453
7454 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7455 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7456 demos/state_machine.
7457 [Ben Laurie]
7458
7459 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7460 generation and verification.
7461 [Steve Henson]
7462
7463 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7464 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7465 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7466 encode and decode it manually.
7467 [Steve Henson]
7468
7469 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7470 compile under VC++.
7471 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7472
7473 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7474 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7475 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7476 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7477
7478 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7479 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7480 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7481 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7482 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7483 [Steve Henson]
7484
7485 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7486 [Richard Levitte]
7487
7488 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7489 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7490 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7491
7492 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7493 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7494 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7495 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7496 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7497 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7498 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7499 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7500
7501 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7502 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7503
7504 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7505
7506 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7507 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7508 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7509
7510 [Richard Levitte]
7511
7512 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7513 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7514 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7515 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7516 [Richard Levitte]
7517
7518 *) MD4 implemented.
7519 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7520
7521 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7522 [Richard Levitte]
7523
7524 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7525 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7526 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7527 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7528 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7529 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7530 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7531 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7532 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7533 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7534 short or long names are found.
7535 [Steve Henson]
7536
7537 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7538 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7539
7540 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7541 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7542 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7543 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7544
7545 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7546 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7547 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7548 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7549 [Bodo Moeller]
7550
7551 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7552 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7553 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7554 [Richard Levitte]
7555
7556 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7557 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7558 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7559 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7560 to allow the various flags to be set.
7561 [Steve Henson]
7562
7563 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7564 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7565 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7566 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7567 dates to be checked.
7568 [Steve Henson]
7569
7570 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7571 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7572 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7573 [Steve Henson]
7574
7575 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7576 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7577 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7578 [Steve Henson]
7579
7580 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7581 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7582 [Bodo Moeller]
7583
7584 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7585 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7586 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7587 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7588 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7589 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7590 [Richard Levitte]
7591
7592 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7593 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7594 Random Numbers.
7595 [Ulf Möller]
7596
7597 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7598 DSA key.
7599 [Steve Henson]
7600
7601 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7602 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7603 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7604 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7605 form signing output easier to verify.
7606 [Steve Henson]
7607
7608 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7609 [Steve Henson]
7610
7611 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7612 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7613 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7614 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7615 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7616 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7617 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7618 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7619 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7620 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7621 [Steve Henson]
7622
7623 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7624
7625 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7626 the syntax given in objects.README.
7627 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7628 obj_mac.h.
7629 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7630 obj_mac.h.
7631
7632 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7633 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7634 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7635 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7636 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7637 consistent name changes.
7638 [Richard Levitte]
7639
7640 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7641 [Bodo Moeller]
7642
7643 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7644 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7645 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7646 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7647 [Richard Levitte]
7648
7649 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7650 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7651 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7652 of safestack.h .
7653 [Steve Henson]
7654
7655 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7656 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7657 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7658 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7659 [Steve Henson]
7660
7661 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7662 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7663 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7664 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7665 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7666 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7667 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7668 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7669 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7670 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7671 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7672 [Steve Henson]
7673
7674 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7675 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7676 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7677 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7678 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7679 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7680 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7681 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7682 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7683 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7684 [Steve Henson]
7685
7686 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7687 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7688 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7689 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7690
7691 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7692 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7693 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7694 omit any duplicate addresses.
7695 [Steve Henson]
7696
7697 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7698 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7699 [Bodo Moeller]
7700
7701 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7702 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7703 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7704 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7705 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7706 [Bodo Moeller]
7707
7708 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7709 software:
7710 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7711 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7712 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7713 Free => OPENSSL_free
7714 [Richard Levitte]
7715
7716 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7717 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7718 [Bodo Moeller]
7719
7720 *) CygWin32 support.
7721 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7722
7723 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7724 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7725 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7726 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7727 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7728 approach.
7729 [Geoff Thorpe]
7730
7731 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7732 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7733 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7734 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7735 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7736 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7737 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7738 [Geoff Thorpe]
7739
7740 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7741 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7742 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7743 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7744 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7745 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7746 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7747 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7748 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7749 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7750 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7751 [Bodo Moeller]
7752
7753 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7754 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7755 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7756 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7757 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7758
7759 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7760 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7761 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7762 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7763 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7764
7765 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7766 ciphers.
7767
7768 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7769 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7770 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7771 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7772
7773 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7774
7775 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7776 of macros.
7777
7778 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7779 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7780 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7781 flags.
7782
7783 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7784 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7785 any installed hardware versions can.
7786 [Steve Henson]
7787
7788 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7789 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7790 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7791 number.
7792 [Bodo Moeller]
7793
7794 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7795 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7796 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7797 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7798 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7799
7800 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7801 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7802 [Steve Henson]
7803
7804 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7805 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7806 [Richard Levitte]
7807
7808 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7809 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7810 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7811 features.
7812 [Steve Henson]
7813
7814 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7815 [Ulf Möller]
7816
7817 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7818 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7819 but no ssl client purpose.
7820 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7821
7822 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7823 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7824 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7825 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7826 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7827 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7828 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7829 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7830 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7831 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7832 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7833 [Steve Henson]
7834
7835 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7836 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7837 be obtained from the error queue.
7838 [Bodo Moeller]
7839
7840 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7841 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7842 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7843 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7844 [Bodo Moeller]
7845
7846 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7847 [Ulf Möller]
7848
7849 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7850 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7851 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7852 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7853 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7854 [Geoff Thorpe]
7855
7856 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7857 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7858 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7859 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7860 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7861 [Geoff Thorpe]
7862
7863 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7864 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7865 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7866 may not be NULL.
7867 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7868
7869 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7870 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7871 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7872 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7873 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7874 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7875 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7876 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7877 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7878 or "the configuration storage API"...
7879
7880 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7881
7882 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7883 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7884
7885 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7886
7887 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7888
7889 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7890 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7891 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7892 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7893 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7894 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7895 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7896
7897 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7898 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7899 [Richard Levitte]
7900
7901 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7902 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7903 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7904 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7905 [Bodo Moeller]
7906
7907 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7908 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7909 them in a portable way.
7910 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7911
7912 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7913
7914 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7915
7916 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7917 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7918
7919 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7920 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7921 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7922 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7923
7924 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7925 was larger than the MD block size.
7926 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7927
7928 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7929 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7930 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7931 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7932 components.
7933 [Steve Henson]
7934
7935 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7936 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7937 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7938
7939 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7940 discouraged.
7941 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7942
7943 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7944 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7945 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7946 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7947 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7948 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7949
7950 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7951 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7952
7953 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7954 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7955 [Bodo Moeller]
7956
7957 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7958 [Bodo Moeller]
7959
7960 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7961 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7962 its own key.
7963 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7964 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7965 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7966 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7967 [Bodo Moeller]
7968
7969 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7970 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7971 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7972 does not suppress any output.
7973 [Richard Levitte]
7974
7975 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7976 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7977 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7978 with all the associated security issues.
7979
7980 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7981 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7982 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7983 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7984 use the value in the default purpose.
7985 [Steve Henson]
7986
7987 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7988 and fix a memory leak.
7989 [Steve Henson]
7990
7991 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7992 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7993 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7994 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7995 [Bodo Moeller]
7996
7997 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7998 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7999 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8000 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8001 [Bodo Moeller]
8002
8003 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8004 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8005 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8006 [Bodo Moeller]
8007
8008 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8009 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8010 [Bodo Moeller]
8011
8012 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8013 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8014 which was free.
8015 [Steve Henson]
8016
8017 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8018 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8019 [Bodo Moeller]
8020
8021 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8022 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8023 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8024 [Bodo Moeller]
8025
8026 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8027 number generation fails.
8028 [Bodo Moeller]
8029
8030 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8031 [Bodo Moeller]
8032
8033 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8034 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8035
8036 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8037 [Ulf Möller]
8038
8039 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8040 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8041
8042 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8043 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8044
8045 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8046
8047 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8048 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8049 [Steve Henson]
8050
8051 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8052 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8053
8054 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8055 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8056 [Ulf Möller]
8057
8058 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8059 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8060 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8061 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8062 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8063 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8064
8065 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8066 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8067 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8068 for example.
8069 [Steve Henson]
8070
8071 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8072 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8073 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8074 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8075 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8076 counter, some don't.)
8077 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8078 counters or duplicate objects.
8079 [Steve Henson]
8080
8081 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8082 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8083 [Steve Henson]
8084
8085 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8086 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8087 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8088
8089 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8090 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8091 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8092 or -rand.
8093 [Ulf Möller]
8094
8095 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8096 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8097 [Steve Henson]
8098
8099 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8100 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8101 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8102 cipher list.
8103 [Steve Henson]
8104
8105 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8106 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8107 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8108 [Steve Henson]
8109
8110 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8111 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8112 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8113 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8114 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8115 should work without changes.
8116 [Richard Levitte]
8117
8118 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8119 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8120 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8121 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8122 must be defined. E.g.,
8123 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8124 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8125 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8126 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8127
8128 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8129 record layer.
8130 [Bodo Moeller]
8131
8132 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8133 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8134 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8135 [Steve Henson]
8136
8137 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8138 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8139 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8140 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8141 [Steve Henson]
8142
8143 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8144 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8145 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8146 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8147 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8148 is prompted for as usual.
8149 [Steve Henson]
8150
8151 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8152 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8153 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8154 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8155
8156 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8157 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8158 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8159 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8160 [Steve Henson]
8161
8162 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8163 [Andy Polyakov]
8164
8165 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8166 of seed file.
8167 [Steve Henson]
8168
8169 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8170 [Bodo Moeller]
8171
8172 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8173 [Steve Henson]
8174
8175 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8176 bits.
8177 [Ulf Möller]
8178
8179 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8180 [Ulf Möller]
8181
8182 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8183 [Andy Polyakov]
8184
8185 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8186 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8187 [Ulf Möller]
8188
8189 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8190 options to produce them.
8191 [Steve Henson]
8192
8193 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8194 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8195 [Ulf Möller]
8196
8197 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8198 for p == 0.
8199 [Ulf Möller]
8200
8201 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8202 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8203 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8204 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8205 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8206 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8207 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8208 [Steve Henson]
8209
8210 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8211 [Steve Henson]
8212
8213 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8214 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8215 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8216 [Bodo Moeller]
8217
8218 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8219 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8220
8221 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8222 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8223 [Ulf Möller]
8224
8225 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8226 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8227 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8228 has already seen).
8229 [Bodo Moeller]
8230
8231 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8232 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8233
8234 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8235 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8236 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8237 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8238 generation becomes much faster.
8239
8240 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8241 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8242 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8243 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8244 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8245 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8246 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8247 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8248 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8249 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8250 [Bodo Moeller]
8251
8252 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8253 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8254 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8255 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8256 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8257 trial division stage.
8258 [Bodo Moeller]
8259
8260 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8261 as ASN1_TIME.
8262 [Steve Henson]
8263
8264 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8265 [Steve Henson]
8266
8267 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8268 [Ulf Möller]
8269
8270 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8271 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8272 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8273 the comments.
8274 [Ulf Möller]
8275
8276 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8277 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8278 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8279 [Bodo Moeller]
8280
8281 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8282 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8283 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8284 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8285
8286 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8287 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8288 [Steve Henson]
8289
8290 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8291 [Ulf Möller]
8292
8293 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8294 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8295 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8296 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8297 [Ulf Möller]
8298
8299 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8300 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8301 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8302 [Ulf Möller]
8303
8304 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8305 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8306 (instead of parameters) in future.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8310 when a new cipher list is set.
8311 [Steve Henson]
8312
8313 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8314 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8315 wrong.
8316
8317 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8318 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8319 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8320
8321 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8322 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8323 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8324 an error is flagged.
8325
8326 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8327 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8328 the readability was also increased :-)
8329 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8330
8331 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8332 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8333 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8334 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8335 as the root CA.
8336 [Steve Henson]
8337
8338 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8339 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8340 [Steve Henson]
8341
8342 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8343 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8344 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8345 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8346 instead.
8347
8348 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8349 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8350 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8351 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8352 because they handle more complex structures.)
8353 [Steve Henson]
8354
8355 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8356 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8357 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8358 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8359
8360 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8361 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8362 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8363 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8364 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8365 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8366 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8367 [Ulf Möller]
8368
8369 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8370 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8371 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8372 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8373 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8374 [Bodo Moeller]
8375
8376 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8377 [Bodo Moeller]
8378
8379 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8380 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8381 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8382 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8383 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8384 to use this.
8385
8386 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8387 code.
8388 [Steve Henson]
8389
8390 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8391 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8392 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8393 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8394 [Steve Henson]
8395
8396 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8397 [Ulf Möller]
8398
8399 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8400 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8401 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8402 international characters are used.
8403
8404 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8405 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8406 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8407 in ASN1 order.
8408 [Steve Henson]
8409
8410 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8411 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8412 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8413 request.
8414
8415 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8416 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8417 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8418 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8419 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8420 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8421
8422 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8423 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8424 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8425 be handled by the string table functions.
8426
8427 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8428 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8429 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8430 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8431 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8432 types at all.
8433 [Steve Henson]
8434
8435 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8436 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8437 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8438 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8439 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8440
8441 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8442 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8443 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8444 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8445 [Bodo Moeller]
8446
8447 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8448 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8449 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8450 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8451 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8452 SHA1.
8453 [Andy Polyakov]
8454
8455 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8456 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8457 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8458 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8459 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8460 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8461 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8462 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8463
8464 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8465 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8466 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8467 [Steve Henson]
8468
8469 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8470 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8471 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8472 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8473 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8474 support to pkcs8 application.
8475 [Steve Henson]
8476
8477 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8478 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8479 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8480 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8481 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8482 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8483 [Bodo Moeller]
8484
8485 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8486 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8487 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8488 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8489 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8490 consistency.
8491 [Bodo Moeller]
8492
8493 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8494 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8495 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8496 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8497 example.
8498 [Steve Henson]
8499
8500 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8501 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8502 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8503 and any application specific purposes.
8504
8505 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8506 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8507 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8508 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8509 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8510 if the certificate is self signed.
8511 [Steve Henson]
8512
8513 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8514 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8515 [Steve Henson]
8516
8517 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8518 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8519 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8520 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8521 [Steve Henson]
8522
8523 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8524 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8525 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8526 Update documentation.
8527 [Steve Henson]
8528
8529 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8530 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8531 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8532 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8533 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8534 [Steve Henson]
8535
8536 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8537 for details.
8538 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8539
8540 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8541 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8542 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8543 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8544 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8545 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8546 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8547 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8548 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8549 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8550
8551 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8552
8553 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8554 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8555 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8556 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8557 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8558
8559 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8560 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8561 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8562 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8563 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8564 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8565 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8566 request additional information:
8567 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8568 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8569
8570 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8571 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8572 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8573 options.
8574
8575 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8576 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8577
8578 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8579 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8580 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8581
8582 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8583 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8584
8585 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8586 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8587 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8588 algorithm.
8589 [Steve Henson]
8590
8591 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8592 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8593 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8594
8595 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8596 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8597 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8598 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8599 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8600 included in OpenSSL.
8601 [Steve Henson]
8602
8603 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8604 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8605 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8606 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8607 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8608 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8609 [Bodo Moeller]
8610
8611 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8612 PKCS12 structure.
8613 [Steve Henson]
8614
8615 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8616 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8617 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8618 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8619 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8620 structure.
8621 [Steve Henson]
8622
8623 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8624 need initialising.
8625 [Steve Henson]
8626
8627 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8628 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8629 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8630 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8631 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8632 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8633 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8634 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8635 be maintained manually.
8636
8637 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8638 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8639 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8640 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8641 work because people forget to call this function]
8642 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8643 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8644 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8645 [Steve Henson]
8646
8647 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8648 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8649 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8650 should be discouraged from doing it.
8651 [Ben Laurie]
8652
8653 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8654 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8655 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8656 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8657 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8658 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8659 [Steve Henson]
8660
8661 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8662 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8663 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8664
8665 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8666 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8667 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8668
8669 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8670 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8671 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8672 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8673 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8674 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8675
8676 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8677 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8678 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8679
8680 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8681 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8682 and vice versa.
8683
8684 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8685 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8686 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8687 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8688 [Steve Henson]
8689
8690 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8691 [Steve Henson]
8692
8693 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8694 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8695 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8696 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8697 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8698 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8699 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8700 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8701 keys so we should be OK.
8702
8703 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8704 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8705 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8706 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8707 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8708 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8709 stay in the name of compatibility.
8710
8711 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8712 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8713 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8714
8715 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8716 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8717 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8718 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8719 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8720 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8721 supplied key).
8722 [Steve Henson]
8723
8724 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8725 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8726 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8727 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8728 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8729 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8730 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8731 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8732 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8733 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8734 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8735 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8736 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8737 [Steve Henson]
8738
8739 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8740 [Steve Henson]
8741
8742 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8743 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8744 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8745 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8746 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8747 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8748 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8749 openssl verify ss.pem
8750 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8751 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8752 is OK.
8753 [Steve Henson]
8754
8755 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8756 (and add it to external session representation).
8757 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8758 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8759 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8760 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8761 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8762 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8763 security holes.
8764 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8765
8766 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8767 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8768 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8769 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8770
8771 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8772 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8773 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8774 [Steve Henson]
8775
8776 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8777 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8778 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8779 code.
8780 [Steve Henson]
8781
8782 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8783 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8784 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8785
8786 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8787 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8788 certificate auxiliary information.
8789 [Steve Henson]
8790
8791 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8792 the 'enc' command.
8793 [Steve Henson]
8794
8795 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8796 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8797 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8798 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8799 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8800 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8801 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8802 [Richard Levitte]
8803
8804 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8805 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8806 [Steve Henson]
8807
8808 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8809 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8810 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8811 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8812 [Steve Henson]
8813
8814 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8815 [Steve Henson]
8816
8817 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8818 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8819 [Steve Henson]
8820
8821 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8822 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8823 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8824 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8825 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8826 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8827 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8828 using the new 'x509' options.
8829
8830 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8831 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8832 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8833 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8834 for all purposes.
8835 [Steve Henson]
8836
8837 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8838 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8839 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8840 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8841 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8842 [Mark Cox]
8843
8844 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8845 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8846 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8847 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8848 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8849 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8850 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8851 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8852 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8853 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8854 [Steve Henson]
8855
8856 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8857 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8858 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8859 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8860 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8861 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8862 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8863 [Steve Henson]
8864
8865 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8866 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8867 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8868 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8869 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8870 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8871 openssl.cnf for more info.
8872 [Steve Henson]
8873
8874 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8875 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8876 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8877 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8878 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8879 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8880 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8881 md should be large enough anyway.
8882 [Bodo Moeller]
8883
8884 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8885 for handling the random seed file.
8886
8887 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8888 ca,
8889 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8890 s_client,
8891 s_server,
8892 x509 (when signing).
8893 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8894 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8895 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8896
8897 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8898 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8899 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8900 that support '-rand'.
8901 [Bodo Moeller]
8902
8903 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8904 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8905 [Bodo Moeller]
8906
8907 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8908 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8909 [Bill Perry]
8910
8911 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8912 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8913 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8914 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8915 is suitable.
8916 [Steve Henson]
8917
8918 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8919 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8920 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8921 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8922 [Steve Henson]
8923
8924 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8925 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8926 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8927 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8928 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8929 print out all the purposes.
8930 [Steve Henson]
8931
8932 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8933 functions.
8934 [Steve Henson]
8935
8936 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8937 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8938 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8939 single function call.
8940 [Steve Henson]
8941
8942 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8943 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8944 [Andy Polyakov]
8945
8946 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8947 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8948 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8949 [Steve Henson]
8950
8951 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8952 when producing the local key id.
8953 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8954
8955 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8956 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8957 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8958 "server.pem".
8959 [Steve Henson]
8960
8961 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8962 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8963 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8964 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8965 [Steve Henson]
8966
8967 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8968 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8969 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8970 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8971
8972 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8973 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8974 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8975 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8976
8977 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8978 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8979 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8980 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8981 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8982 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8983 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8984 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8985 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8986 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8987 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8988 trivial: move one line.
8989 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8990
8991 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8992 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8993 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8994 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8995 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8996 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8997 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8998 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8999 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9000 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9001 with an event loop for example.
9002 [Steve Henson]
9003
9004 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9005 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9006 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9007 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9008 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9009 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9010 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9011 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9012 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9013 [Steve Henson]
9014
9015 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9016 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9017 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9018 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9019 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9020 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9021 [Steve Henson]
9022
9023 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9024 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9025 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9026 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9027
9028 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9029 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9030 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9031 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9032 key generation.
9033 [Steve Henson]
9034
9035 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9036 (still largely untested)
9037 [Bodo Moeller]
9038
9039 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9040 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9041 [Steve Henson]
9042
9043 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9044 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9045 [Steve Henson]
9046
9047 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9048 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9049 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9050 [Bodo Moeller]
9051
9052 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9053 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9054 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9055 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9056 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9057 [Steve Henson]
9058
9059 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9060 [Andy Polyakov]
9061
9062 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9063 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9064 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9065 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9066 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9067 in ca.
9068 [Steve Henson]
9069
9070 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9071 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9072 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9073 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9074 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9075 [Steve Henson]
9076
9077 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9078 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9079 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9080 are otherwise ignored at present.
9081 [Steve Henson]
9082
9083 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9084 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9085 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9086 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9087 copied until the next read.
9088 [Steve Henson]
9089
9090 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9091 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9092 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9093 [Steve Henson]
9094
9095 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9096 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9097 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9098 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9099 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9100 associated functions.
9101 [Steve Henson]
9102
9103 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9104 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9105 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9106 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9107 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9108 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9109 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9110 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9111 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9112 memory BIOs.
9113 [Steve Henson]
9114
9115 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9116 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9117 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9118 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9119 [Bodo Moeller]
9120
9121 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9122 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9123 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9124 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9125 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9126 functionality.
9127 [Steve Henson]
9128
9129 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9130 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9131 under Win32.
9132 [Steve Henson]
9133
9134 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9135 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9136 extensions to be obtained and added.
9137 [Steve Henson]
9138
9139 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9140 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9141 [Bodo Moeller]
9142
9143 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9144
9145 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9146 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9147
9148 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9149 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9150
9151 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9152 program.
9153 [Steve Henson]
9154
9155 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9156 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9157 DH parameters contain its length).
9158
9159 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9160 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9161 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9162 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9163 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9164 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9165 utter importance to use
9166 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9167 or
9168 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9169 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9170 attacks may become possible!
9171 [Bodo Moeller]
9172
9173 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9174 [Bodo Moeller]
9175
9176 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9177 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9178 [Steve Henson]
9179
9180 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9181 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9182 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9183 or long name.
9184 [Steve Henson]
9185
9186 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9187 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9188 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9189 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9190 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9191 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9192 private key operations.
9193 [Steve Henson]
9194
9195 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9196 [Andy Polyakov]
9197
9198 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9199 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9200 to
9201 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9202 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9203 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9204 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9205 the password callback is called.
9206 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9207
9208 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9209
9210 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9211 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9212 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9213 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9214 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9215 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9216 this will work.
9217
9218 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9219 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9220 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9221 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9222 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9223 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9224 [Bodo Moeller]
9225
9226 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9227 [Andy Polyakov]
9228
9229 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9230 delete an unused file.
9231 [Ulf Möller]
9232
9233 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9234 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9235 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9236 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9237 [Steve Henson]
9238
9239 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9240 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9241 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9242 of an error.
9243 [Bodo Moeller]
9244
9245 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9246 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9247 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9248
9249 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9250 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9251 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9252 comparison" warnings.
9253 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9254 [Steve Henson]
9255
9256 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9257 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9258 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9259 [Steve Henson]
9260
9261 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9262 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9263
9264 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9265 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9266
9267 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9268 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9269 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9270
9271 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9272 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9273 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9274 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9275 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9276 this bug.
9277 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9278
9279 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9280 The interface is as follows:
9281 Applications can use
9282 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9283 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9284 "off" is now the default.
9285 The library internally uses
9286 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9287 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9288 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9289
9290 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9291 even the default) are now avoided.
9292
9293 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9294 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9295 than just having a counter.
9296
9297 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9298
9299 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9300 extensions.
9301 [Bodo Moeller]
9302
9303 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9304 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9305 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9306 Initial "mode" flags are:
9307
9308 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9309 a single record has been written.
9310 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9311 retries use the same buffer location.
9312 (But all of the contents must be
9313 copied!)
9314 [Bodo Moeller]
9315
9316 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9317 worked.
9318
9319 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9320 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9321
9322 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9323 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9324 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9325 [Steve Henson]
9326
9327 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9328 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9329 test programs.
9330 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9331
9332 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9333 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9334 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9335 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9336 point to the end.
9337 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9338 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9339
9340 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9341 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9342 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9343 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9344 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9345 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9346 [Steve Henson]
9347
9348 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9349 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9350 necessary function names.
9351 [Steve Henson]
9352
9353 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9354 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9355 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9356 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9357 [Bodo Moeller]
9358
9359 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9360 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9361 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9362 [Steve Henson]
9363
9364 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9365 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9366 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9367 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9368 such programs?)
9369 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9370 need locks.
9371 [Bodo Moeller]
9372
9373 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9374 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9375 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9376 [Bodo Moeller]
9377
9378 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9379 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9380 appropriate.
9381 [Bodo Moeller]
9382
9383 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9384 for the encoded length.
9385 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9386
9387 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9388 [Steve Henson]
9389
9390 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9391 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9392 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9393 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9394 [Steve Henson]
9395
9396 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9397 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9398 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9399
9400 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9401 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9402 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9403 unusual formatting.
9404 [Steve Henson]
9405
9406 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9407 to use the new extension code.
9408 [Steve Henson]
9409
9410 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9411 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9412 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9413 constant.
9414 [Steve Henson]
9415
9416 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9417 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9418 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9419 [Bodo Moeller]
9420
9421 #if 0
9422 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9423 [Ben Laurie]
9424 #else
9425 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9426 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9427 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9428 #endif
9429
9430 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9431 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9432 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9433 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9434 [Ben Laurie]
9435
9436 *) DES library cleanups.
9437 [Ulf Möller]
9438
9439 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9440 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9441 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9442 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9443 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9444 of v2.0.
9445 [Steve Henson]
9446
9447 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9448 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9449 [Bodo Moeller]
9450
9451 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9452 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9453 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9454 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9455 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9456 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9457 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9458 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9459 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9460 [Steve Henson]
9461
9462 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9463 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9464 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9465 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9466 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9467 value doesn't matter.
9468 [Steve Henson]
9469
9470 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9471 support mutable.
9472 [Ben Laurie]
9473
9474 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9475 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9476 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9477 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9478
9479 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9480 [Ulf Möller]
9481
9482 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9483 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9484 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9485
9486 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9487 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9488
9489 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9490 [Ben Laurie]
9491
9492 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9493 [Ben Laurie]
9494
9495 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9496 [Ben Laurie]
9497
9498 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9499 [Bodo Moeller]
9500
9501
9502 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9503
9504 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9505
9506 *) Updated some demos.
9507 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9508
9509 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9510 [Wu Zhigang]
9511
9512 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9513 [Steve Henson]
9514
9515 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9516 [Steve Henson]
9517
9518 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9519 instead of using a fixed path.
9520 [Bodo Moeller]
9521
9522 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9523 [Andy Polyakov]
9524
9525 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9526 [Richard Levitte]
9527
9528
9529 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9530
9531 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9532 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9533 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9534
9535 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9536 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9537 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9538 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9539 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9540 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9541 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9542 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9543 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9544 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9545 [Steve Henson]
9546
9547 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9548 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9549 [Steve Henson]
9550
9551 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9552 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9553 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9554 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9555 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9556
9557 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9558 [Bodo Moeller]
9559
9560 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9561 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9562 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9563 [Steve Henson]
9564
9565 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9566 [Ben Laurie]
9567
9568 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9569 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9570 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9571 key elements as negative integers.
9572 [Steve Henson]
9573
9574 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9575 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9576
9577 *) VMS support.
9578 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9579
9580 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9581 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9582 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9583 [Steve Henson]
9584
9585 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9586 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9587 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9588 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9589 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9590 [Bodo Moeller]
9591
9592 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9593 [Ulf Möller]
9594
9595 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9596 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9597 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9598 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9599
9600 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9601 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9602 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9603
9604 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9605 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9606 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9607 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9608 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9609 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9610 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9611 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9612 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9613
9614 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9615 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9616 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9617 does not influence s as it used to.
9618
9619 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9620 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9621 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9622 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9623 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9624 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9625 [Bodo Moeller]
9626
9627 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9628 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9629 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9630 key type.
9631 [Steve Henson]
9632
9633 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9634 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9635 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9636 and 'x509').
9637 [Steve Henson]
9638
9639 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9640 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9641 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9642 extension option.
9643 [Steve Henson]
9644
9645 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9646 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9647 [Ben Laurie]
9648
9649 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9650 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9651
9652 *) Support Mingw32.
9653 [Ulf Möller]
9654
9655 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9656 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9657
9658 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9659 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9660
9661 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9662 [Ulf Möller]
9663
9664 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9665 [Anonymous]
9666
9667 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9668 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9669
9670 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9671 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9672 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9673 DER-encoded.)
9674 [Bodo Moeller]
9675
9676 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9677 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9678 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9679 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9680 now it really counts the depth.
9681 [Bodo Moeller]
9682
9683 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9684 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9685 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9686 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9687 didn't match the private key).
9688
9689 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9690 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9691 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9692 [Bodo Moeller]
9693
9694 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9695 [Ulf Möller]
9696
9697 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9698 David Harris.
9699 [Bodo Moeller]
9700
9701 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9702 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9703 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9704 [Bodo Moeller]
9705
9706 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9707 [Bodo Moeller]
9708
9709 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9710 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9711 such as /usr/local/bin.
9712 [Bodo Moeller]
9713
9714 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9715 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9716
9717 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9718 [Ulf Möller]
9719
9720 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9721 extension adding in x509 utility.
9722 [Steve Henson]
9723
9724 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9725 [Ulf Möller]
9726
9727 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9728 prototypes.
9729 [Steve Henson]
9730
9731 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9732 [Ulf Möller]
9733
9734 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9735 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9736 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9737 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9738 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9739 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9740 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9741 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9742 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9743 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9744 [Steve Henson]
9745
9746 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9747 [Bodo Moeller]
9748
9749 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9750 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9751 [Bodo Moeller]
9752
9753 *) Fix some race conditions.
9754 [Bodo Moeller]
9755
9756 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9757 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9758 [Steve Henson]
9759
9760 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9761 [Ulf Möller]
9762
9763 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9764 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9765 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9766 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9767
9768 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9769 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9770
9771 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9772 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9773 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9774
9775 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9776 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9777
9778 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9779 [Ulf Möller]
9780
9781 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9782 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9783
9784 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9785 [Ulf Möller]
9786
9787 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9788 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9789
9790 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9791 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9792 [Steve Henson]
9793
9794 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9795 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9796 [Ben Laurie]
9797
9798 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9799 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9800 [Steve Henson]
9801
9802 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9803 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9804 [Steve Henson]
9805
9806 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9807 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9808 [Steve Henson]
9809
9810 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9811 support typesafe stack.
9812 [Steve Henson]
9813
9814 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9815 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9816
9817 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9818 old X509V3 handling code.
9819 [Steve Henson]
9820
9821 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9822 [Ulf Möller]
9823
9824 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9825 [Bodo Moeller]
9826
9827 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9828 [Ben Laurie]
9829
9830 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9831 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9832
9833 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9834 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9835 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9836 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9837 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9838 [Ben Laurie]
9839
9840 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9841 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9842 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9843 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9844 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9845
9846 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9847 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9848 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9849 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9850
9851 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9852 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9853 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9854 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9855
9856 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9857 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9858 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9859 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9860 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9861 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9862 [Bodo Moeller]
9863
9864 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9865 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9866 [Bodo Moeller]
9867
9868 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9869 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9870 [Ulf Möller]
9871
9872 *) Tweaks to Configure
9873 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9874
9875 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9876 yet...
9877 [Steve Henson]
9878
9879 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9880 [Ulf Möller]
9881
9882 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9883 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9884 [Ulf Möller]
9885
9886 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9887 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9888 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9889 [Bodo Moeller]
9890
9891 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9892 [Bodo Moeller]
9893
9894 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9895 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9896 [Steve Henson]
9897
9898 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9899 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9900 to library startup routines.
9901 [Steve Henson]
9902
9903 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9904 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9905 codes along the way.
9906 [Steve Henson]
9907
9908 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9909 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9910 objects to objects.h
9911 [Steve Henson]
9912
9913 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9914 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9915 [Steve Henson]
9916
9917 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9918 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9919
9920 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9921 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9922 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9923
9924 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9925 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9926 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9927
9928 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9929 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9930 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9931
9932
9933 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9934
9935 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9936 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9937 [Ben Laurie]
9938
9939 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9940 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9941 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9942 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9943 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9944
9945 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9946 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9947 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9948 document.
9949 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9950
9951 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9952 Malloc, Free.
9953 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9954
9955 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9956 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9957
9958 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9959 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9960 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9961 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9962
9963 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9964 [Ben Laurie]
9965
9966 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9967 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9968 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9969 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9970 [Steve Henson]
9971
9972 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9973 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9974 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9975 [Steve Henson]
9976
9977 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9978 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9979 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9980 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9981 installed as `perl').
9982 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9983
9984 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9985 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9986
9987 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9988 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9989 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9990 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9991 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9992 [Steve Henson]
9993
9994 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9995 [Ben Laurie]
9996
9997 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9998 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9999 is horrible: I feel ill....
10000 [Steve Henson]
10001
10002 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10003 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10004 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10005 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10006 [Steve Henson]
10007
10008 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10009 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10010
10011 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10012 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10013 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10014 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10015
10016 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10017 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10018 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10019 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10020 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10021 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10022 openssl_bio.xs.
10023 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10024
10025 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10026 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10027
10028 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10029 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10030
10031 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10032 [Ben Laurie]
10033
10034 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10035 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10036 in CRLs.
10037 [Steve Henson]
10038
10039 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10040 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10041 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10042 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10043 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10044 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10045 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10046 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10047 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10048 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10049 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10050
10051 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10052 [Ben Laurie]
10053
10054 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10055 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10056 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10057 for linking it into DSOs.
10058 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10059
10060 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10061 Fixed.
10062 [Ben Laurie]
10063
10064 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10065 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10066 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10067 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10068 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10069 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10070
10071 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10072 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10073 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10074 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10075 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10076 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10077 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10078
10079 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10080 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10081 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10082 encryption.
10083 [Ben Laurie]
10084
10085 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10086 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10087 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10088 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10089 [Steve Henson]
10090
10091 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10092 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10093 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10094 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10095 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10096 field as blank.
10097 [Steve Henson]
10098
10099 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10100 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10101 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10102 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10103 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10104
10105 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10106 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10107 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10108
10109 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10110 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10111
10112 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10113 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10114 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10115 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10116 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10117 [Steve Henson]
10118
10119 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10120 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10121 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10122 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10123 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10124 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10125 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10126 [Ben Laurie]
10127
10128 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10129 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10130 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10131 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10132 [Ben Laurie]
10133
10134 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10135 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10136
10137 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10138 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10139 [Steve Henson]
10140
10141 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10142 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10143 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10144 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10145 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10146 (e.g. s_server).
10147 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10148 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10149 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10150 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10151 no way to reconfigure them.
10152 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10153 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10154 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10155 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10156 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10157 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10158
10159 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10160 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10161 recognized by the users.
10162 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10163
10164 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10165 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10166 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10167 already masked variable.
10168 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10169
10170 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10171 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10172
10173 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10174 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10175 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10176 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10177
10178 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10179 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10180 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10181
10182 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10183 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10184 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10185 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10186 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10187 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10188 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10189 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10190 now, too.
10191 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10192
10193 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10194 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10195 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10196
10197 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10198 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10199 config file.
10200 [Steve Henson]
10201
10202 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10203 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10204
10205 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10206 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10207 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10208 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10209 [Ben Laurie]
10210
10211 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10212 [Steve Henson]
10213
10214 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10215 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10216
10217 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10218 [Ben Laurie]
10219
10220 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10221 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10222 [Steve Henson]
10223
10224 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10225 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10226 [Steve Henson]
10227
10228 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10229 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10230 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10231 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10232 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10233 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10234 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10235 Ben Laurie]
10236
10237 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10238 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10239
10240 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10241 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10242 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10243 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10244 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10245
10246 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10247 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10248 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10249 [Steve Henson]
10250
10251 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10252 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10253 an example.
10254 [Steve Henson]
10255
10256 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10257 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10258 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10259
10260 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10261 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10262 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10263 build instructions.
10264 [Steve Henson]
10265
10266 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10267 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10268 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10269 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10270 [Steve Henson]
10271
10272 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10273 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10274 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10275 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10276 [Ben Laurie]
10277
10278 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10279 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10280 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10281 so it wasn't spotted.
10282 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10283
10284 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10285 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10286 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10287 vectors if you have them.
10288 [Ben Laurie]
10289
10290 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10291 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10292 [Ben Laurie]
10293
10294 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10295 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10296 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10297 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10298 If you do a:
10299 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10300 it will update them.
10301 [Steve Henson]
10302
10303 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10304 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10305 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10306 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10307 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10308 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10309 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10310 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10311
10312 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10313 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10314 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10315 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10316 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10317 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10318 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10319 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10320 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10321 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10322
10323 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10324 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10325 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10326 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10327 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10328 [Steve Henson]
10329
10330 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10331 INTEGER code.
10332 [Steve Henson]
10333
10334 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10335 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10336
10337 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10338 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10339
10340 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10341 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10342 [Ben Laurie]
10343
10344 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10345 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10346
10347 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10348 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10349
10350 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10351 [Steve Henson]
10352
10353 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10354 few typos.
10355 [Steve Henson]
10356
10357 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10358 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10359 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10360 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10361
10362 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10363 [Steve Henson]
10364
10365 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10366 [Steve Henson]
10367
10368 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10369 [Steve Henson]
10370
10371 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10372 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10373 [Steve Henson]
10374
10375 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10376 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10377 CA extensions.
10378 [Steve Henson]
10379
10380 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10381 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10382 [Steve Henson]
10383
10384 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10385 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10386 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10387 [Steve Henson]
10388
10389 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10390 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10391 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10392 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10393 properly to be processed.
10394 [Steve Henson]
10395
10396 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10397 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10398 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10399 [Ben Laurie]
10400
10401 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10402 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10403
10404 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10405 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10406 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10407 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10408 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10409 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10410 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10411 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10412 or delete all the .err files.
10413 [Steve Henson]
10414
10415 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10416 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10417 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10418 to regenerate it if needed.
10419 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10420 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10421
10422 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10423 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10424
10425 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10426 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10427 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10428 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10429 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10430 [Steve Henson]
10431
10432 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10433 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10434
10435 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10436 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10437
10438 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10439 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10440 error, but didn't set one).
10441 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10442
10443 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10444 [Ben Laurie]
10445
10446 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10447 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10448 [Steve Henson]
10449
10450 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10451 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10452
10453 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10454 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10455 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10456 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10457 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10458 OID is not part of the table.
10459 [Steve Henson]
10460
10461 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10462 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10463 [Ben Laurie]
10464
10465 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10466 [Ben Laurie]
10467
10468 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10469 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10470 was "1234").
10471 [Steve Henson]
10472
10473 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10474 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10475
10476 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10477 NULL pointers.
10478 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10479
10480 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10481 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10482
10483 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10484 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10485
10486 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10487 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10488
10489 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10490 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10491 [Ben Laurie]
10492
10493 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10494 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10495 [Steve Henson]
10496
10497 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10498 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10499
10500 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10501 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10502
10503 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10504 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10505
10506 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10507 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10508
10509 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10510 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10511 unused in the certificate verification process.
10512 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10513
10514 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10515 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10516 [Steve Henson]
10517
10518 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10519 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10520 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10521
10522 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10523 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10524 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10525 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10526 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10527
10528 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10529 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10530 [Steve Henson]
10531
10532 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10533 [Steve Henson]
10534
10535 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10536 [Paul Sutton]
10537
10538 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10539 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10540
10541 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10542 [Ben Laurie]
10543
10544 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10545 [Ben Laurie]
10546
10547 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10548 [Ben Laurie]
10549
10550 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10551 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10552 other error libraries.
10553 [Steve Henson]
10554
10555 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10556 [Steve Henson]
10557
10558 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10559 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10560 be read in.
10561 [Steve Henson]
10562
10563 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10564 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10565 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10566 the new set of documenation files.
10567 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10568
10569 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10570 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10571 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10572 number of arguments.
10573 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10574
10575 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10576 [Ben Laurie]
10577
10578 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10579 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10580 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10581
10582 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10583 [Ben Laurie]
10584
10585 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10586 nextstep
10587 ncr-scde
10588 unixware-2.0
10589 unixware-2.0-pentium
10590 sco5-cc.
10591 [Ben Laurie]
10592
10593 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10594 before they are needed.
10595 [Ben Laurie]
10596
10597 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10598 [Ben Laurie]
10599
10600

10602
10603 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10604 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10605 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10606
10607 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10608 [Paul Sutton]
10609
10610 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10611 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10612 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10613
10614 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10615 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10616 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10617
10618 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10619 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10620 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10621
10622 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10623 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10624
10625 *) Updated the README file.
10626 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10627
10628 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10629 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10630 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10631
10632 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10633 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10634 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10635
10636 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10637 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE

10649 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10650 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10651
10652 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10653 [Mark J. Cox]
10654
10655 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10656 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10657 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10658 summer 1998.

10676 available).
10677 [Eric A. Young]
10678
