7 *) Have 'config' recognise 64-bit mingw and choose 'mingw64' as the target
8 platform rather than 'mingw'.

11 Changes between 1.0.2j and 1.0.2k [26 Jan 2017]
12
13 *) Truncated packet could crash via OOB read
14
15 If one side of an SSL/TLS path is running on a 32-bit host and a specific
16 cipher is being used, then a truncated packet can cause that host to
17 perform an out-of-bounds read, usually resulting in a crash.

19 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Święcki of Google.
20 (CVE-2017-3731)
21 [Andy Polyakov]
22
23 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
24
25 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
26 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
27 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
28 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
29 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
30 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
31 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
32 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
33 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
34 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
35 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
36 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites. Note: This issue is very
37 similar to CVE-2015-3193 but must be treated as a separate problem.
38
39 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OSS-Fuzz project.
40 (CVE-2017-3732)
41 [Andy Polyakov]
42
43 *) Montgomery multiplication may produce incorrect results
44
45 There is a carry propagating bug in the Broadwell-specific Montgomery
46 multiplication procedure that handles input lengths divisible by, but
47 longer than 256 bits. Analysis suggests that attacks against RSA, DSA
48 and DH private keys are impossible. This is because the subroutine in
49 question is not used in operations with the private key itself and an input
50 of the attacker's direct choice. Otherwise the bug can manifest itself as
51 transient authentication and key negotiation failures or reproducible
52 erroneous outcome of public-key operations with specially crafted input.
53 Among EC algorithms only Brainpool P-512 curves are affected and one
54 presumably can attack ECDH key negotiation. Impact was not analyzed in
55 detail, because pre-requisites for attack are considered unlikely. Namely
56 multiple clients have to choose the curve in question and the server has to
57 share the private key among them, neither of which is default behaviour.
58 Even then only clients that chose the curve will be affected.
59
60 This issue was publicly reported as transient failures and was not
61 initially recognized as a security issue. Thanks to Richard Morgan for
62 providing reproducible case.
63 (CVE-2016-7055)
64 [Andy Polyakov]
65
66 *) OpenSSL now fails if it receives an unrecognised record type in TLS1.0
67 or TLS1.1. Previously this only happened in SSLv3 and TLS1.2. This is to
68 prevent issues where no progress is being made and the peer continually
69 sends unrecognised record types, using up resources processing them.
70 [Matt Caswell]
71
72 Changes between 1.0.2i and 1.0.2j [26 Sep 2016]
73
74 *) Missing CRL sanity check
75
76 A bug fix which included a CRL sanity check was added to OpenSSL 1.1.0
77 but was omitted from OpenSSL 1.0.2i. As a result any attempt to use
78 CRLs in OpenSSL 1.0.2i will crash with a null pointer exception.
79
80 This issue only affects the OpenSSL 1.0.2i
81 (CVE-2016-7052)
82 [Matt Caswell]
83
84 Changes between 1.0.2h and 1.0.2i [22 Sep 2016]
85
86 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
87
88 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
89 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
90 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
91 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
92 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
93 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
94 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.
95
96 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
97 (CVE-2016-6304)
98 [Matt Caswell]
99
100 *) In order to mitigate the SWEET32 attack, the DES ciphers were moved from
101 HIGH to MEDIUM.

103 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Karthikeyan Bhargavan and Gaetan
104 Leurent (INRIA)
105 (CVE-2016-2183)
106 [Rich Salz]
107
108 *) OOB write in MDC2_Update()
109
110 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
111 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
112 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
113 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
114 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
115
116 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical
117 on most platforms.
118
119 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
120 (CVE-2016-6303)
121 [Stephen Henson]
122
123 *) Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
124
125 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
126 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
127 ultimately crash.
128
129 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
130 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.
131
132 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
133 (CVE-2016-6302)
134 [Stephen Henson]
135
136 *) OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
137
138 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
139 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
140 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
141 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
142 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.
143
144 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
145 (CVE-2016-2182)
146 [Stephen Henson]
147
148 *) OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
149
150 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
151 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
152 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
153 presented.
154
155 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
156 (CVE-2016-2180)
157 [Stephen Henson]
158
159 *) Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
160
161 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
162
163 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
164 "p + len > limit"
165
166 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
167 limit == p + SIZE
168
169 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
170 message).
171
172 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
173 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore the above idiom is actually
174 undefined behaviour.
175
176 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
177 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
178 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.
179
180 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken
181 (CVE-2016-2177)
182 [Matt Caswell]
183
184 *) Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
185
186 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
187 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
188 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
189 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
190 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.
191
192 This issue was reported by César Pereida (Aalto University), Billy Brumley
193 (Tampere University of Technology), and Yuval Yarom (The University of
194 Adelaide and NICTA).
195 (CVE-2016-2178)
196 [César Pereida]
197
198 *) DTLS buffered message DoS
199
200 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
201 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
202 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
203 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
204 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
205 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
206 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
207 a message is 100k. Therefore the attacker could force an additional 1500k
208 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simulataneous connections an
209 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.
210
211 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Quan Luo.
212 (CVE-2016-2179)
213 [Matt Caswell]
214
215 *) DTLS replay protection DoS
216
217 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
218 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
219 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
220 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
221 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
222 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
223 service for a specific DTLS connection.
224
225 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OCAP audit team.
226 (CVE-2016-2181)
227 [Matt Caswell]
228
229 *) Certificate message OOB reads
230
231 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
232 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
233 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
234 platforms.
235
236 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
237 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
238 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.
239
240 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
241 (CVE-2016-6306)
242 [Stephen Henson]
243
244 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
245
246 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
247
248 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
249 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
250 AES-NI.
251
252 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
253 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
254 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
255 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
256 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
257 bytes.
258
259 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
260 (CVE-2016-2107)
261 [Kurt Roeckx]
262
263 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
264
265 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
266 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
267 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
268 corruption.
269
270 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarly used by
271 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
272 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
273 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
274 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
275 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
276
277 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
278 (CVE-2016-2105)
279 [Matt Caswell]
280
281 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
282
283 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
284 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
285 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
286 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
287 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
288 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
289 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
290 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
291 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
292 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
293 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
294 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
295 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
296 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
297 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
298 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
299
300 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
301 (CVE-2016-2106)
302 [Matt Caswell]
303
304 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
305
306 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
307 a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
308 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
309
310 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
311 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
312 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
313 applications are not affected.
314
315 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
316 (CVE-2016-2109)
317 [Stephen Henson]
318
319 *) EBCDIC overread
320
321 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
322 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
323 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
324
325 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
326 (CVE-2016-2176)
327 [Matt Caswell]
328
329 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
330 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
331 [Todd Short]
332
333 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
334 default.
335 [Kurt Roeckx]
336
337 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
338 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
339 [Kurt Roeckx]
340
341 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
342
343 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
344 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
345 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
346 [Viktor Dukhovni]
347
348 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
349 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
350 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
351 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
352 will need to explicitly call either of:
353
354 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
355 or
356 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
357
358 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
359 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
360 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
361 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
362 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
363 (CVE-2016-0800)
364 [Viktor Dukhovni]
365
366 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
367
368 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
369 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
370 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
371 considered rare.
372
373 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
374 libFuzzer.
375 (CVE-2016-0705)
376 [Stephen Henson]
377
378 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
379
380 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
381
382 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
383 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
384 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
385 is configured.
386
387 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
388 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
389 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
390 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
391 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
392 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
393 that of a valid user.
394 (CVE-2016-0798)
395 [Emilia Käsper]
396
397 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
398
399 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
400 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
401 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
402 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
403 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
404 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
405 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
406 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
407 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
408 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
409 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
410
411 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
412 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
413 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
414 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
415 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
416
417 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
418 (CVE-2016-0797)
419 [Matt Caswell]
420
421 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
422
423 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
424 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
425 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
426
427 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
428 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
429 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
430 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
431 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
432 also occur.
433
434 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
435 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
436 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
437 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
438 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
439 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
440 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
441 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
442 as command line arguments.
443
444 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
445 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
446 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
447
448 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
449 (CVE-2016-0799)
450 [Matt Caswell]
451
452 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
453
454 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
455 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
456 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
457 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
458 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
459
460 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
461 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
462 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
463 http://cachebleed.info.
464 (CVE-2016-0702)
465 [Andy Polyakov]
466
467 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
468 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
469 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
470 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
471 [Emilia Käsper]
472
473 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
474
475 *) DH small subgroups
476
477 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
478 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
479 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
480 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
481 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
482 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
483 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
484 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
485 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
486 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
487
488 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
489 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
490 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
491 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
492 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
493
494 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
495 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
496 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
497 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
498
499 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
500 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
501
502 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
503 (CVE-2016-0701)
504 [Matt Caswell]
505
506 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
507
508 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
509 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
510 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
511 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
512
513 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
514 and Sebastian Schinzel.

522
523 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
524
525 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
526 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
527 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
528 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
529 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
530 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
531 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
532 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
533 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
534 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
535 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
536 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.

539 (CVE-2015-3193)
540 [Andy Polyakov]
541
542 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
543
544 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
545 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
546 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
547 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
548 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
549 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
550 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
551 authentication.
552
553 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
554 (CVE-2015-3194)
555 [Stephen Henson]
556
557 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
558
559 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
560 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
561 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
562 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
563
564 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
565 libFuzzer.
566 (CVE-2015-3195)
567 [Stephen Henson]
568
569 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
570 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
571 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
572 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.

579 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
580
581 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
582
583 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
584 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
585 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
586 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
587 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
588 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
589

591 (Google/BoringSSL).
592 (CVE-2015-1793)
593 [Matt Caswell]
594
595 *) Race condition handling PSK identify hint
596
597 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
598 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
599 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
600 identify hint data.

603
604 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]

610 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
611
612 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
613
614 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
615 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
616 field.
617
618 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
619 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
620 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
621 client authentication enabled.
622
623 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
624 (CVE-2015-1788)
625 [Andy Polyakov]
626
627 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
628
629 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
630 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
631 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
632 time string.
633
634 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
635 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
636 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
637 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
638 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
639 callbacks.
640
641 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
642 independently by Hanno Böck.
643 (CVE-2015-1789)
644 [Emilia Käsper]
645
646 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
647
648 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
649 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
650 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
651
652 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
653 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
654 servers are not affected.
655
656 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
657 (CVE-2015-1790)
658 [Emilia Käsper]
659
660 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
661
662 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
663 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
664 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
665 the CMS code.
666 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
667 (CVE-2015-1792)
668 [Stephen Henson]
669
670 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
671
672 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
673 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
674 a double free of the ticket data.
675 (CVE-2015-1791)
676 [Matt Caswell]
677
678 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
679 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
680 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
681 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
682 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
683 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
684 [Matt Caswell]
685
686 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
687 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
688 curves, prefer P-256 (both).

695
696 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
697
698 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
699 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
700 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
701
702 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
703 University.
704 (CVE-2015-0291)
705 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
706
707 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
708
709 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
710 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
711 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
712 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
713 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
714 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
715 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
716 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
717
718 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
719 (CVE-2015-0290)
720 [Matt Caswell]
721
722 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
723
724 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
725 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
726 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
727 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
728 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
729 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
730 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
731 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
732 server.
733
734 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
735 (CVE-2015-0207)
736 [Matt Caswell]
737
738 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
739
740 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
741 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
742 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
743 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
744 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
745 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
746 (CVE-2015-0286)
747 [Stephen Henson]
748
749 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
750
751 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
752 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
753 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
754 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
755 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
756 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
757 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
758
759 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
760 (CVE-2015-0208)
761 [Stephen Henson]
762
763 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
764
765 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
766 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
767 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
768
769 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
770 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
771 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
772 not affected.
773 (CVE-2015-0287)
774 [Stephen Henson]
775
776 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
777
778 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
779 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
780 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
781
782 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
783 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
784 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
785
786 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
787 (CVE-2015-0289)
788 [Emilia Käsper]
789
790 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
791
792 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
793 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
794 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
795
796 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
797 (OpenSSL development team).
798 (CVE-2015-0293)
799 [Emilia Käsper]
800
801 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
802
803 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
804 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
805 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
806 (CVE-2015-1787)
807 [Matt Caswell]
808
809 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
810
811 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
812 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
813 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
814 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
815 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
816 SSL_client_methodv23)
817 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
818 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
819
820 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
821 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
822 output may be predictable.
823
824 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
825 succeed on an unpatched platform:
826
827 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
828 (CVE-2015-0285)
829 [Matt Caswell]
830
831 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
832
833 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
834 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
835 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
836 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
837 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
838 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
839
840 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
841 commit 517073cd4b.
842 (CVE-2015-0209)
843 [Matt Caswell]
844
845 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
846
847 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
848 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
849
850 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.

857 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
858
859 *) Change RSA and DH/DSA key generation apps to generate 2048-bit
860 keys by default.
861 [Kurt Roeckx]
862
863 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
864 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
865 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
866 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
867 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
868 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
869 [Andy Polyakov]
870
871 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
872 (other platforms pending).
873 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
874
875 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
876 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
877 [Rob Stradling]
878
879 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
880 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
881 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
882 [Bodo Moeller]
883
884 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
885 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
886 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
887 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
888 [Andy Polyakov]
889
890 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
891 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
892
893 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
894 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
895 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
896 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
897 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
898
899 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
900 [Andy Polyakov]
901
902 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
903 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
904 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
905 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
906
907 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
908 RSAZ.
909 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
910
911 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
912 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
913 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
914 for TLS encrypt.
915
916 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
917 [Andy Polyakov]
918
919 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
920 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
921 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
922 [Steve Henson]
923
924 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
925 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
926 [Steve Henson]
927
928 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
929 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
930 [Steve Henson]
931
932 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
933 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
934 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
935 algorithms and include tests cases.
936 [Steve Henson]
937
938 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
939 structure.
940 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
941
942 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
943 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
944 [Steve Henson]
945
946 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
947 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
948 summary of the connection parameters.
949 [Steve Henson]
950
951 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
952 of connection parameters.
953 [Steve Henson]
954
955 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
956 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
957
958 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
959 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
960 [Steve Henson]
961
962 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
965 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
966 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
967 [Steve Henson]
968
969 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
970 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
971 [Steve Henson]
972
973 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
974 certificates.
975 [Steve Henson]
976
977 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
978 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
979 CRLs using the OCSP API.
980 [Steve Henson]
981
982 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
983 [Steve Henson]
984
985 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
986 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
987 [Steve Henson]
988
989 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
990 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
991 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
992 tracing.
993 [Steve Henson]
994
995 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
996 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
997 [Steve Henson]
998
999 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
1000 OID NID.
1001 [Steve Henson]
1002
1003 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
1004 client to OpenSSL.
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
1008 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
1009 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
1010 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
1011 [Steve Henson]
1012
1013 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
1014 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
1015 [Steve Henson]
1016
1017 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
1018 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
1019 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
1020 comparison.
1021 [Steve Henson]
1022
1023 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
1024 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
1025 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
1026 use the certificate.
1027 [Steve Henson]
1028
1029 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
1030 [Steve Henson]
1031
1032 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
1033 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
1034 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
1035 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
1036 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
1037 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
1038 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
1039
1040 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
1041 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
1042
1043 [Steve Henson]
1044
1045 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
1046 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
1047 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
1048 [Steve Henson]
1049
1050 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
1051 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
1052 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
1053 supported signature algorithms.
1054 [Steve Henson]
1055
1056 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
1057 [Steve Henson]
1058
1059 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
1060 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
1061 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
1062 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
1063 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
1064 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
1065 certificate and specify the whole chain.
1066 [Steve Henson]
1067
1068 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
1069 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
1070 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
1071 to have similar checks in it.
1072
1073 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
1074 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
1075 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
1076 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
1077 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
1078 [Steve Henson]
1079
1080 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
1081 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
1082 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
1083 shared signature algorithms.
1084 [Steve Henson]
1085
1086 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
1087 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
1088 to support them.
1089 [Steve Henson]
1090
1091 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
1092 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
1093 it couldn't be removed.
1094 [Steve Henson]
1095
1096 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
1097 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
1098 [Steve Henson]
1099
1100 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
1101 functions. Add manual page.
1102 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
1103
1104 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
1105 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
1106 a certificate.
1107 [Steve Henson]
1108
1109 *) Fix OCSP checking.
1110 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
1111
1112 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
1113 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
1114 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
1115 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
1116 utility) or reject.
1117 [Steve Henson]
1118
1119 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
1120 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
1121 [Steve Henson]
1122
1123 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
1124 platform support for Linux and Android.
1125 [Andy Polyakov]
1126
1127 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
1128 [Andy Polyakov]
1129
1130 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1131 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
1132 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
1133 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
1134 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
1135 [Steve Henson]
1136
1137 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
1138 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
1139 the new parameter format automatically.
1140 [Steve Henson]
1141
1142 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
1143 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
1144 [Steve Henson]
1145
1146 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
1147 [Steve Henson]
1148
1149 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
1150 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
1151 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
1152 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
1153 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
1154 [Steve Henson]
1155
1156 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
1157 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
1158 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
1159 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
1160 to set list of supported curves.
1161 [Steve Henson]
1162
1163 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
1164 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
1165 to print out received values.
1166 [Steve Henson]
1167
1168 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
1169 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
1170 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
1171 [Steve Henson]
1172
1173 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
1174 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
1175 [Steve Henson]
1176
1177 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
1178 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
1179 [Steve Henson]
1180
1181 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
1182 certificates.
1183 [Steve Henson]
1184
1185 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
1186 the certificate.
1187 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
1188 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
1189 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
1190
1191 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
1192
1193 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
1194 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
1195
1196 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
1197
1198 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
1199 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
1200 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
1201 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
1202 (CVE-2014-3571)
1203 [Steve Henson]
1204
1205 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
1206 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
1207 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
1208 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
1209 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
1210 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
1211 (CVE-2015-0206)
1212 [Matt Caswell]
1213
1214 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
1215 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
1216 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
1217 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
1218 (CVE-2014-3569)
1219 [Kurt Roeckx]
1220
1221 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
1222 ECDH ciphersuites.
1223
1224 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
1225 reporting this issue.
1226 (CVE-2014-3572)
1227 [Steve Henson]
1228
1229 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
1230 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
1231 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
1232 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
1233 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
1234 INRIA or reporting this issue.
1235 (CVE-2015-0204)
1236 [Steve Henson]
1237
1238 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
1239 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
1240 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
1241 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
1242 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
1243 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
1244 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
1245 this issue.
1246 (CVE-2015-0205)
1247 [Steve Henson]
1248
1249 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
1250 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
1251
1252 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
1253 and can vary with the CTX.
1254 [Adam Langley]
1255
1256 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
1257
1258 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
1259 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
1260 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
1261 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
1262 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
1263
1264 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
1265
1266 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
1267 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
1268
1269 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
1270
1271 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
1272 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
1273 errors for some broken certificates.
1274
1275 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
1276
1277 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
1278
1279 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
1280 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
1281
1282 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
1283 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
1284 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
1285 (negative or with leading zeroes).
1286
1287 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
1288 of the OpenSSL core team.
1289
1290 (CVE-2014-8275)
1291 [Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
1294 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
1295 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
1296 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
1297 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
1298 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
1299 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
1300 the OpenSSL core team.
1301 (CVE-2014-3570)
1302 [Andy Polyakov]
1303
1304 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
1305 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
1306 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
1307 sanity and breaks all known clients.
1308 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
1309
1310 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
1311 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
1312 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
1313 [Emilia Käsper]
1314
1315 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
1316 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
1317 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1318 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
1319 announced in the initial ServerHello.
1320
1321 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
1322 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1323 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
1324 [Emilia Käsper]
1325
1326 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
1327
1328 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
1329
1330 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
1331 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
1332 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
1333 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
1334 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
1335 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
1336 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
1337
1338 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
1339 (CVE-2014-3513)
1340 [OpenSSL team]
1341
1342 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
1343
1344 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
1345 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
1346 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
1347 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
1348 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
1349 attack.
1350 (CVE-2014-3567)
1351 [Steve Henson]
1352
1353 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
1354
1355 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
1356 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
1357 configured to send them.
1358 (CVE-2014-3568)
1359 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
1360
1361 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
1362 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
1363 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
1364 (CVE-2014-3566)
1365 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1366
1367 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
1368
1369 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
1370 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
1371 DigestInfo structures.
1372
1373 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
1374
1375 [Steve Henson]
1376
1377 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
1378
1379 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
1380 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
1381 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
1382
1383 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
1384 Group for discovering this issue.
1385 (CVE-2014-3512)
1386 [Steve Henson]
1387
1388 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
1389 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
1390 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
1391 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
1392 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
1393
1394 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
1395 researching this issue.
1396 (CVE-2014-3511)
1397 [David Benjamin]
1398
1399 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
1400 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
1401 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
1402 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
1403
1404 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
1405 issue.
1406 (CVE-2014-3510)
1407 [Emilia Käsper]
1408
1409 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
1410 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1411 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1412 (CVE-2014-3507)
1413 [Adam Langley]
1414
1415 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
1416 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
1417 Denial of Service attack.
1418 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1419 (CVE-2014-3506)
1420 [Adam Langley]
1421
1422 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
1423 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1424 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1425 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1426 this issue.
1427 (CVE-2014-3505)
1428 [Adam Langley]
1429
1430 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
1431 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
1432 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
1433
1434 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
1435 issue.
1436 (CVE-2014-3509)
1437 [Gabor Tyukasz]
1438
1439 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
1440 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
1441 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
1442 Denial of Service attack.
1443
1444 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
1445 discovering and researching this issue.
1446 (CVE-2014-5139)
1447 [Steve Henson]
1448
1449 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
1450 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
1451 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
1452 output to the attacker.
1453
1454 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
1455 (CVE-2014-3508)
1456 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
1457
1458 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1459 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1460 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1461 [Bodo Moeller]
1462
1463 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
1464
1465 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
1466 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
1467 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
1468
1469 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
1470 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
1471 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
1472
1473 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
1474 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
1475 in a DoS attack.
1476
1477 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
1478 (CVE-2014-0221)
1479 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
1480
1481 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
1482 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
1483 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
1484 code on a vulnerable client or server.
1485
1486 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
1487 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
1488
1489 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
1490 are subject to a denial of service attack.
1491
1492 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
1493 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
1494 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
1495
1496 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1497 compilation flags.
1498 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1499
1500 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1501 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1502 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1503
1504 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1505 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1506
1507 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
1508
1509 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1510 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1511 server.
1512
1513 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1514 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1515 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1516 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1517
1518 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1519 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1520 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1521 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1522
1523 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1524 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1525 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1526
1527 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
1528
1529 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
1530 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
1531 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
1532 is at least 512 bytes long.
1533
1534 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
1535
1536 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
1537
1538 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
1539 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
1540 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
1541 (CVE-2013-4353)
1542
1543 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
1544 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
1545 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
1546 [Steve Henson]
1547
1548 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
1549 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
1550 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
1551 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
1552 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
1553 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
1554 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
1555
1556 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
1557
1558 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
1559 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
1560 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1561
1562 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
1563
1564 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1565
1566 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1567 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1568 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1569
1570 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1571 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1572 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1573 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1574 (CVE-2013-0169)
1575 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1576
1577 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
1578 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
1579 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
1580 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
1581 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
1582 (CVE-2012-2686)
1583 [Adam Langley]
1584
1585 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1586 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1587 [Steve Henson]
1588
1589 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1590 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1591
1592 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1593 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1594 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1595 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1596 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1597
1598 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1599 [Steve Henson]
1600
1601 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
1602 if renegotiating.
1603 [Steve Henson]
1604
1605 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
1606
1607 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
1608 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
1609
1610 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1611 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1612 (CVE-2012-2333)
1613 [Steve Henson]
1614
1615 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1616 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1617 [Steve Henson]
1618
1619 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
1620 approved.
1621 [Steve Henson]
1622
1623 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
1624
1625 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1626 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
1627 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
1628 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
1629 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
1630 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
1631 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
1632 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
1633 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
1634 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
1635 [Steve Henson]
1636
1637 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
1638 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
1639 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
1640 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
1641 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
1642 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
1643 client side.
1644 [Andy Polyakov]
1645
1646 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
1647
1648 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1649 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1650 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1651
1652 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1653 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1654 (CVE-2012-2110)
1655 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1656
1657 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
1658 [Adam Langley]
1659
1660 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
1661 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
1662
1663 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
1664 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
1665 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
1666 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
1667 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
1668 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
1669 Most broken servers should now work.
1670 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
1671 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
1672 [Steve Henson]
1673
1674 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
1675 [Andy Polyakov]
1676
1677 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
1678
1679 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
1680 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
1681 [Steve Henson]
1682
1683 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1684 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1685 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1686 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1687 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1688 [Steve Henson]
1689
1690 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1691 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1692 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
1693 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1694 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1695 [Steve Henson]
1696
1697 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1698 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1699
1700 *) Add support for SCTP.
1701 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1702
1703 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1704 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1705
1706 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1707
1708 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1709 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1710 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1711 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1712 - s390x: z196 support;
1713 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1714
1715 [Andy Polyakov]
1716
1717 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1718 (removal of unnecessary code)
1719 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1720
1721 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1722 [Eric Rescorla]
1723
1724 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1725 [Eric Rescorla]
1726
1727 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1728 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1729 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1730 by Google.
1731 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1732
1733 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1734 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1735 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1736 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1737 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1738
1739 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1740 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1741 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1742
1743 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1744 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1745 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1746
1747 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1748 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1749 implementations).
1750 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1751
1752 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1753 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1754 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1755 [Steve Henson]
1756
1757 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1758 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1759 particular PSS.
1760 [Steve Henson]
1761
1762 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1763 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1764 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1765 [Steve Henson]
1766
1767 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1768 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1769 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1770 the appropriate parameters.
1771 [Steve Henson]
1772
1773 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1774 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1775 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1776 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
1777 against a number of sample certificates.
1778 [Steve Henson]
1779
1780 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
1781 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
1782
1783 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
1784 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
1785
1786 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
1787 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
1788 parameters r, s.
1789 [Steve Henson]
1790
1791 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
1792 RFC3211.
1793 [Steve Henson]
1794
1795 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
1796 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
1797 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
1798 password based CMS).
1799 [Steve Henson]
1800
1801 *) Session-handling fixes:
1802 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
1803 but also support Session Tickets.
1804 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
1805 presented a ticket with an expired session.
1806 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
1807 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
1808 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
1809 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1810
1811 *) Fix PSK session representation.
1812 [Bodo Moeller]
1813
1814 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
1815
1816 This work was sponsored by Intel.
1817 [Andy Polyakov]
1818
1819 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
1820 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
1821 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
1822 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
1823 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
1827 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
1831 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
1832 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
1833 [Steve Henson]
1834
1835 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
1836 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
1837 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
1838 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
1839 [Steve Henson]
1840
1841 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
1842 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
1843 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
1844 [Steve Henson]
1845
1846 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
1847 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
1848
1849 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
1850 [Steve Henson]
1851
1852 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
1853 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
1854 [Steve Henson]
1855
1856 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1857 [Steve Henson]
1858
1859 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
1860 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
1861 [Steve Henson]
1862
1863 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
1864 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1865 [Steve Henson]
1866
1867 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1868 [Steve Henson]
1869
1870 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1871 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1872 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1873 [Steve Henson]
1874
1875 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1876 [Steve Henson]
1877
1878 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1879 [Steve Henson]
1880
1881 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1882 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1883 [Steve Henson]
1884
1885 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1886 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1887 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1888 [Steve Henson]
1889
1890 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1891 [Steve Henson]
1892
1893 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1894 and enable MD5.
1895 [Steve Henson]
1896
1897 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1898 FIPS modules versions.
1899 [Steve Henson]
1900
1901 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1902 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1903 until after the certificate request message is received.
1904 [Steve Henson]
1905
1906 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1907 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1908 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1909 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1910 [Steve Henson]
1911
1912 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1913 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1914 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1915 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1916 [Steve Henson]
1917
1918 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1919 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1920 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1921 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1922 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1923 and version checking.
1924 [Steve Henson]
1925
1926 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1927 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1928 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1929 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1930 [Steve Henson]
1931
1932 *) Add SRP support.
1933 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1934
1935 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1936 [Steve Henson]
1937
1938 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1939 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1940 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1941
1942 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1943 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1944 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1945 [Steve Henson]
1946
1947 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1948 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1949
1950 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1951 a few changes are required:
1952
1953 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1954 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1955 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1956 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1957 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1961
1962 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1963 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1964 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1965 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1966 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1967 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1968 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1969 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1970 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1971 [Steve Henson]
1972
1973 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1974 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1975 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1976 [Steve Henson]
1977
1978 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1979
1980 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1981 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1982 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1983 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1984 [Antonio Martin]
1985
1986 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1987
1988 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1989 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1990 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1991 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1992 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1993 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1994 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1995 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1996 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1997 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1998 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1999 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2000 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2001
2002 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2003 (CVE-2011-4576)
2004 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2005
2006 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2007 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2008 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2009 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2010
2011 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
2012 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
2013
2014 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2015 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2016 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2017 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2018
2019 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
2020 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
2021
2022 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2023 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2024
2025 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2026 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2027
2028 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2029 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2030 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2031
2032 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2033 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2034 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2035
2036 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2037 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2038 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2039 the last update always remained unused).
2040 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2041
2042 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
2043 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
2044
2045 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
2046
2047 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
2048 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
2049 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
2050
2051 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2052 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
2053 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2054
2055 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2056 [Bodo Moeller]
2057
2058 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
2059 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
2060 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
2061 [Steve Henson]
2062
2063 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2064 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2065
2066 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2067
2068 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2069
2070 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
2071
2072 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2073 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2074
2075 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2076 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2077 ambiguous.
2078 [Steve Henson]
2079
2080 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
2081
2082 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2083 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2084 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2085 [Steve Henson]
2086
2087 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2088 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2089 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2090 [Ben Laurie]
2091
2092 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
2093
2094 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2095 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2096 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2097 [Steve Henson]
2098
2099 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
2100 a DLL.
2101 [Steve Henson]
2102
2103 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
2104
2105 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
2106 (CVE-2010-1633)
2107 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
2108
2109 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
2110
2111 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
2112 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
2113 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
2114 [Steve Henson]
2115
2116 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
2117 [Steve Henson]
2118
2119 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
2120 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
2121 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
2122
2123 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
2124 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
2125 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
2126 [Steve Henson]
2127
2128 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
2129 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
2130 [Steve Henson]
2131
2132 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
2133 some responders need this.
2134 [Steve Henson]
2135
2136 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
2137 correctly.
2138 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2139
2140 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
2141 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
2142 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
2143 [Steve Henson]
2144
2145 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
2146 [Steve Henson]
2147
2148 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
2149 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
2150 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
2151 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
2152 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
2153 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
2154 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
2155 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
2156 [Steve Henson]
2157
2158 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
2159 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
2160 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
2161 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2162
2163 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
2164 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
2165
2166 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
2167 be used on C++.
2168 [Steve Henson]
2169
2170 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
2171 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
2172 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
2173 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
2174 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
2175 attempting to work them out.
2176 [Steve Henson]
2177
2178 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
2179 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
2180 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
2181 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
2182 [Steve Henson]
2183
2184 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
2185 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
2186 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
2187 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
2188 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
2189 [Steve Henson]
2190
2191 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
2192 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
2193 you can do:
2194
2195 openssl sha256 foo
2196
2197 as well as:
2198
2199 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
2200
2201 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
2202
2203 [Steve Henson]
2204
2205 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
2206 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2207
2208 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
2209 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
2210
2211 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
2212 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
2213 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
2214 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
2215 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
2216 [Steve Henson]
2217
2218 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
2219 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
2220 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
2221 [Steve Henson]
2222
2223 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
2224 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
2225 [Steve Henson]
2226
2227 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
2228 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
2229
2230 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
2231 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
2232 [Steve Henson]
2233
2234 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
2235 [Ben Laurie]
2236
2237 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
2238 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
2239 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
2240 CONF_VALUE.
2241 [Ben Laurie]
2242
2243 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
2244 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
2245 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
2246 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
2247 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
2248 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
2249 [Steve Henson]
2250
2251 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
2252 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
2253
2254 This work was sponsored by Google.
2255 [Steve Henson]
2256
2257 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
2258 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
2259 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
2260 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
2261 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
2262 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
2263 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
2264 default.
2265
2266 This work was sponsored by Google.
2267 [Steve Henson]
2268
2269 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
2270
2271 This work was sponsored by Google.
2272 [Steve Henson]
2273
2274 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
2275 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
2276 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
2277 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
2278
2279 This work was sponsored by Google.
2280 [Steve Henson]
2281
2282 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
2283 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
2284 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
2285 CRL functionality in future.
2286
2287 This work was sponsored by Google.
2288 [Steve Henson]
2289
2290 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
2291
2292 This work was sponsored by Google.
2293 [Steve Henson]
2294
2295 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
2296 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
2297
2298 This work was sponsored by Google.
2299 [Steve Henson]
2300
2301 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
2302 and URI types are currently supported.
2303
2304 This work was sponsored by Google.
2305 [Steve Henson]
2306
2307 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
2308 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
2309 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
2310 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
2311 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
2312 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
2313 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
2314 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
2315
2316 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
2317 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
2318 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
2319
2320 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
2321 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
2322 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
2323 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
2324
2325 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
2326 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
2327 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
2328 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
2329 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
2330 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
2331 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
2332 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
2333 of &errno.)
2334 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
2335
2336 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
2337 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
2338 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
2339
2340 This work was sponsored by Google.
2341 [Steve Henson]
2342
2343 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
2344 [Ben Laurie]
2345
2346 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2347 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
2348 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
2349 [Ben Laurie]
2350
2351 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
2352 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
2353 [Nick Mathewson]
2354
2355 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2356 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
2357 [Ben Laurie]
2358
2359 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
2360 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
2361 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
2362 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
2363 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
2364 content types and variants.
2365 [Steve Henson]
2366
2367 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
2368 [Steve Henson]
2369
2370 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
2371 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
2372 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
2373 files from the associated perl scripts.
2374 [Steve Henson]
2375
2376 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
2377 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
2378 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2379
2380 *) s390x assembler pack.
2381 [Andy Polyakov]
2382
2383 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
2384 "family."
2385 [Andy Polyakov]
2386
2387 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
2388 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
2389 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
2390 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
2391 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
2392 to use. For example, specify an option
2393
2394 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
2395
2396 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
2397 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
2398 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
2399 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
2400 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
2401 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
2402
2403 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
2404 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
2405 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
2406 return non-zero for success.
2407
2408 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
2409 by using
2410
2411 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
2412 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2413
2414 where
2415
2416 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
2417 void *arg;
2418
2419 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
2420 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
2421 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
2422 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
2423 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2424 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2425 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2426 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2427 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2428
2429 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2430 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
2431 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
2432 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
2433 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
2434 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
2435
2436 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
2437 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
2438 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
2439 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
2440 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
2441 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
2442
2443 [Bodo Moeller]
2444
2445 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
2446 MAC.
2447
2448 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2449
2450 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2451 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2452 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2453 supported.
2454
2455 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2456 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2457 SSL_SESSION.
2458
2459 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2460 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2461 with no application modification.
2462
2463 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2464 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2465
2466 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2467 or server extensions to be examined.
2468
2469 This work was sponsored by Google.
2470 [Steve Henson]
2471
2472 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
2473 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
2474 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
2475
2476 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
2477 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
2478 ciphersuite support.
2479 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
2480
2481 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
2482 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
2483 to output in BER and PEM format.
2484 [Steve Henson]
2485
2486 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
2487 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
2488 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2489 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
2490 -macopt options to dgst utility.
2491 [Steve Henson]
2492
2493 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
2494 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
2495 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
2496 utility.
2497 [Steve Henson]
2498
2499 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
2500 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
2501 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
2502 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
2503 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
2504 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
2505 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
2506 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
2507 enabled again.
2508
2509 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
2510 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
2511 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
2512 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
2513
2514 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
2515 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
2516 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
2517 the default order.
2518 [Bodo Moeller]
2519
2520 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
2521 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
2522 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
2523 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
2524 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
2525 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
2526 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
2527 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
2528 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
2529
2530 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
2531 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
2532 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
2533 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
2534 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
2535 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
2536 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
2537 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
2538 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
2539 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
2540 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
2541 kinds of kludges.
2542
2543 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
2544 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
2545 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
2546
2547 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
2548 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
2549 "CAMELLIA256".
2550 [Bodo Moeller]
2551
2552 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
2553 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
2554 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
2555 [Nils Larsch]
2556
2557 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
2558 it yet and it is largely untested.
2559 [Steve Henson]
2560
2561 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
2562 [Nils Larsch]
2563
2564 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
2565 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
2566 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
2567 [Steve Henson]
2568
2569 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
2570 [Andy Polyakov]
2571
2572 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
2573 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
2574 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
2575 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
2576 [Steve Henson]
2577
2578 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
2579 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
2580 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
2581 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
2582 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
2583 [Steve Henson]
2584
2585 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
2586 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
2587 [Cryptocom]
2588
2589 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
2590 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
2591 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
2592 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
2593 [Steve Henson]
2594
2595 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
2596 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
2597 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
2598 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
2599 [Steve Henson]
2600
2601 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
2602 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
2603 [Steve Henson]
2604
2605 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
2606 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
2607 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
2608 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
2609 [Steve Henson]
2610
2611 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
2612 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
2613 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
2614 [Steve Henson]
2615
2616 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
2617 utility.
2618 [Steve Henson]
2619
2620 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
2621 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
2622 [Steve Henson]
2623
2624 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2625 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2626 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2627 if necessary.
2628 [Steve Henson]
2629
2630 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2631 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2632 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2633 [Steve Henson]
2634
2635 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2636 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2637 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2638 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2639 [Steve Henson]
2640
2641 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2642 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2643 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2644 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2645 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2646 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2647 [Douglas Stebila]
2648
2649 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2650 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2651 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2652 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2653 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2654
2655 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2656 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2657 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2658 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2659 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2660 protocol).
2661
2662 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2663 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2664 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2665 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2666
2667 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2668 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2669 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2670 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2671 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2672
2673 aECDH - ECDH cert
2674 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2675 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2676
2677 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2678 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2679
2680 [Bodo Moeller]
2681
2682 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2683 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2684 [Steve Henson]
2685
2686 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2687 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2688 [Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2691 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2692 functional reference processing.
2693 [Steve Henson]
2694
2695 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2696 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2697 process.
2698 [Steve Henson]
2699
2700 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2701 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2702 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2703 [Steve Henson]
2704
2705 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2706 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2707 application to support multiple signers.
2708 [Steve Henson]
2709
2710 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2711 digest MAC.
2712 [Steve Henson]
2713
2714 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2715 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2716 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2717 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2718 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2719 [Steve Henson]
2720
2721 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2722 new API.
2723 [Steve Henson]
2724
2725 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2726 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2727 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2728 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2729 a no op.
2730 [Steve Henson]
2731
2732 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2733 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2734 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2735 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
2736 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2737 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2738 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2739 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2740 [Steve Henson]
2741
2742 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2743 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2744 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2745 between digests and public key types.
2746 [Steve Henson]
2747
2748 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2749 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2750 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2751 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2752 [Steve Henson]
2753
2754 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2755 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2756 key ASN1 method.
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2760 [Steve Henson]
2761
2762 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2763 pkeyutl.
2764 [Steve Henson]
2765
2766 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2767 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2768 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2769 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2770 pkey, genpkey.
2771 [Steve Henson]
2772
2773 *) BeOS support.
2774 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2775
2776 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
2777 manual pages.
2778 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2779
2780 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
2781 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
2782 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
2783 functionality for RSA.
2784 [Steve Henson]
2785
2786 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
2787 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
2788 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
2789 [Steve Henson]
2790
2791 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
2792 key API, doesn't do much yet.
2793 [Steve Henson]
2794
2795 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
2796 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
2797 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
2798 [Steve Henson]
2799
2800 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
2801 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2802 [Douglas Stebila]
2803
2804 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
2805 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
2806 [Steve Henson]
2807
2808 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2809 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2810 type.
2811 [Steve Henson]
2812
2813 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2814 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2815 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2816 structure.
2817 [Steve Henson]
2818
2819 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2820 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2821 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2822 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2823 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2824 of public and private key structures.
2825 [Steve Henson]
2826
2827 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2828 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2829 [Douglas Stebila]
2830
2831 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2832 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2833 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2834
2835 New ciphersuites:
2836 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2837 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2838
2839 New functions:
2840 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
2841 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
2842 SSL_get_psk_identity
2843 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
2844
2845 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2846
2847 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2848 and response verification functionality.
2849 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2850
2851 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2852 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2853 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2854 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2855 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2856 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2857 server_name extension.
2858
2859 New functions (subject to change):
2860
2861 SSL_get_servername()
2862 SSL_get_servername_type()
2863 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2864
2865 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2866
2867 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2868 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2869 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2870 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2871 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2872
2873 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2874
2875 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2876 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2877 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2878 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2879 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2880 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2881 option.
2882
2883 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2884
2885 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2886 [Andy Polyakov]
2887
2888 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2889 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2890 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2891 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2892 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2893 [Andy Polyakov]
2894
2895 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2896 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2897 macro.
2898 [Bodo Moeller]
2899
2900 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2901 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2902 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2903 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2904 [Andy Polyakov]
2905
2906 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2907 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2908 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2909 using the maximum available value.
2910 [Steve Henson]
2911
2912 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2913 in addition to the text details.
2914 [Bodo Moeller]
2915
2916 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2917 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2918 handle several customised structures at all.
2919 [Steve Henson]
2920
2921 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2922 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2923 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2924 [Steve Henson]
2925
2926 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2927 [Steve Henson]
2928
2929 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2930 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2931 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2932 [Steve Henson]
2933
2934 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2935 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2936 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2937 [Nils Larsch]
2938
2939 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2940 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2941 all fields.
2942 [Steve Henson]
2943
2944 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2945 [Steve Henson]
2946
2947 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2948 [NTT]
2949
2950 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2951
2952 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2953 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2954 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2955 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2956 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2957 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2958 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2959 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2960
2961 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2962 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2963 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2964
2965 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2966
2967 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2968 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2969
2970 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2971 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2972 [Bodo Moeller]
2973
2974 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2975 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2976 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2977 [Steve Henson]
2978
2979 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2980 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2981 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2982 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2983 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2984 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2985 [Steve Henson]
2986
2987 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2988 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2989 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2990 [Steve Henson]
2991
2992 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2993 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2994 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2995 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2996 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2997 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2998 CVE-2009-4355.
2999 [Steve Henson]
3000
3001 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
3002 change when encrypting or decrypting.
3003 [Bodo Moeller]
3004
3005 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
3006 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
3007 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
3008 [Steve Henson]
3009
3010 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
3011 [Steve Henson]
3012
3013 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
3014 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
3015 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
3016 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
3017 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
3018 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
3019 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
3020 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
3021 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
3022 [Steve Henson]
3023
3024 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
3025 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
3026 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
3027 [Steve Henson]
3028
3029 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
3030 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
3031 [Steve Henson]
3032
3033 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
3034 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
3035 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
3036 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
3037 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
3038 know what you are doing.
3039 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
3042 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
3043 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
3044 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
3045 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
3046 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
3047 the handshake.
3048 [Steve Henson]
3049
3050 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
3051 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
3052 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
3053 correctly.
3054 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
3055
3056 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
3057 warnings in other configurations.
3058 [Steve Henson]
3059
3060 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
3061 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
3062 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
3063 systems need.
3064 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
3065
3066 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
3067 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
3068 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
3069
3070 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
3071 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
3072 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
3073 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
3074 [Steve Henson]
3075
3076 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
3077 and restored.
3078 [Steve Henson]
3079
3080 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
3081 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
3082 clash.
3083 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3084
3085 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
3086 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
3087 other than a simple chain.
3088 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
3089
3090 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
3091 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
3092 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
3093 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
3094 [Steve Henson]
3095
3096 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
3097 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
3098 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
3099 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
3100 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
3101 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
3102 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
3103 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
3104 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3105
3106 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
3107 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
3108 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
3109 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
3110 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
3111 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
3112 (CVE-2009-1377)
3113 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3114
3115 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
3116 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
3117 [Daniel Mentz]
3118
3119 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
3120 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
3121
3122 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
3123 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
3124
3125 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
3126
3127 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
3128 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
3129 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
3130 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
3131 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
3132 you're doing.
3133 [Ben Laurie]
3134
3135 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
3136
3137 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
3138 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
3139 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
3140 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
3141
3142 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
3143 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
3144 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
3145 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3146
3147 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
3148 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
3149 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
3150 [Steve Henson]
3151
3152 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
3153 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
3154 level.
3155 [Steve Henson]
3156
3157 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
3158 to handle some structures.
3159 [Steve Henson]
3160
3161 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
3162 for a '\n'
3163 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
3164
3165 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
3166 [Matthieu Herrb]
3167
3168 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
3169 [Steve Henson]
3170
3171 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
3172 [Steve Henson]
3173
3174 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
3175 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
3176 chosen compiler.
3177 [Ben Laurie]
3178
3179 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
3180
3181 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
3182 (CVE-2008-5077).
3183 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
3184
3185 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
3186 [Ben Laurie]
3187
3188 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
3189 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
3190 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
3191 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
3192
3193 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
3194 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
3195
3196 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
3197 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
3198 [Bodo Moeller]
3199
3200 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
3201 s_client and s_server.
3202 [Ben Laurie]
3203
3204 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
3205 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3206
3207 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
3208 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
3209
3210 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
3211 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
3212 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
3213 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
3214 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
3215 [Bodo Moeller]
3216
3217 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
3218
3219 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
3220 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
3221 [PR #1679]
3222
3223 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
3224 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
3225 [Nagendra Modadugu]
3226
3227 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
3228 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
3229 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
3230 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
3231
3232 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
3233 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
3234
3235 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
3236
3237 *) Various precautionary measures:
3238
3239 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
3240
3241 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
3242 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
3243 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
3244
3245 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
3246 outside the expected range.
3247
3248 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
3249 builds.
3250
3251 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
3252
3253 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
3254 the load fails. Useful for distros.
3255 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
3256
3257 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
3258 [Steve Henson]
3259
3260 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
3261 [Huang Ying]
3262
3263 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
3264
3265 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3266 [Steve Henson]
3267
3268 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
3269 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
3270 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
3271
3272 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3273 [Steve Henson]
3274
3275 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
3276 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
3277 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
3278 files.
3279 [Steve Henson]
3280
3281 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
3282
3283 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
3284 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
3285 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
3286 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
3287
3288 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
3289 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
3290 [Joe Orton]
3291
3292 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
3293
3294 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
3295 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
3296 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
3297
3298 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
3299
3300 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
3301 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
3302 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
3303 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
3304 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3305
3306 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
3307 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
3308 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
3309 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
3310 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
3311 invalid read after the end of 'db').
3312 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3313
3314 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
3315
3316 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
3317 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
3318 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
3319 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
3320 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
3321
3322 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
3323 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
3324
3325 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
3326 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
3327 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
3328 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
3329 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
3330
3331 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
3332
3333 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
3334 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
3335 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
3336 sets may exist with different names.
3337 [Steve Henson]
3338
3339 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
3340 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
3341 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
3342 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
3343 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
3344 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
3345 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
3346 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
3347 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
3348 implementation.
3349 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
3350
3351 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
3352 implemention in the following ways:
3353
3354 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
3355 hard coded.
3356
3357 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
3358 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
3359 ignored for embedded content.
3360
3361 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
3362 with the enable-cms configuration option.
3363 [Steve Henson]
3364
3365 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
3366 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
3367 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
3368 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
3369
3370 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
3371 uncompresses any data passed through it.
3372 [Steve Henson]
3373
3374 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
3375 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
3376 [Steve Henson]
3377
3378 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
3379 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
3380 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
3381 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
3382 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
3383 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
3384 data.
3385 [Steve Henson]
3386
3387 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
3388 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
3389 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3390
3391 *) Netware support:
3392
3393 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
3394 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
3395 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
3396 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
3397 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
3398 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
3399 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
3400 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
3401 platform
3402 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3403 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3404 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3405 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3406 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3407 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3408 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3409
3410 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3411 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3412 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3413 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3414 to s_client and s_server.
3415 [Steve Henson]
3416
3417 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3418
3419 *) Fix various bugs:
3420 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3421 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3422 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3423 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3424 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3425
3426 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3427
3428 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3429 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3430 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3431 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3432 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3433 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3434 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3435 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3436 [Andy Polyakov]
3437
3438 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3439 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3440 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3441 Steve Henson]
3442
3443 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3444 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3445 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3446 supported.
3447
3448 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3449 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3450 SSL_SESSION.
3451
3452 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3453 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3454 with no application modification.
3455
3456 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3457 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3458
3459 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3460 or server extensions to be examined.
3461
3462 This work was sponsored by Google.
3463 [Steve Henson]
3464
3465 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3466 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3467 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3468 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3469 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3470 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3471 server_name extension.
3472
3473 New functions (subject to change):
3474
3475 SSL_get_servername()
3476 SSL_get_servername_type()
3477 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3478
3479 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3480
3481 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3482 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3483 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3484 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3485 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3486
3487 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3488
3489 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3490 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3491 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3492 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3493 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3494 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3495 option.
3496
3497 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3498
3499 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3500 [Steve Henson]
3501
3502 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3503 [Andy Polyakov]
3504
3505 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3506 (which previously caused an internal error).
3507 [Bodo Moeller]
3508
3509 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3510 [Ben Laurie]
3511
3512 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3513 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3514
3515 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3516 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3517 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3518
3519 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3520 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3521 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3522 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3523
3524 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3525 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3526 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3527 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3528
3529 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3530 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3531 information. For detailed background information, see
3532 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3533 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3534 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3535 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3536 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3537 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3538 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3539 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3540 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3541 remove a conditional branch.
3542
3543 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3544 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3545 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3546 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3547 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3548 remains as a deprecated alias.
3549
3550 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3551 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3552 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3553 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3554
3555 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3556 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3557 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3558 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3559 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3560 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3561 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3562 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3563
3564 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3565
3566 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3567 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3568 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3569 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3570 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3571 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3572 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3573 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3574 in a different context.
3575 [Bodo Moeller]
3576
3577 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3578 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3579 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3580 [Bodo Moeller]
3581
3582 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3583 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3584 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3585
3586 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3587
3588 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3589 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3590 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3591 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3592 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3593 [Victor Duchovni]
3594
3595 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3596 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3597 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3598 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3599 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3600 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3601 [Bodo Moeller]
3602
3603 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3604 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3605 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3606 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3607 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3608 [Bodo Moeller]
3609
3610 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3611 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3612
3613 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3614 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3615 Improve header file function name parsing.
3616 [Steve Henson]
3617
3618 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3619 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3620 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3621
3622 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3623
3624 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3625 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3626 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3627
3628 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3629 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3630
3631 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3632 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3633
3634 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3635 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3636 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3637
3638 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3639 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3640 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3641 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3642 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3643 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3644 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3645 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3646 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3647
3648 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3649 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3650 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3651 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3652 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3653
3654 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3655 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3656 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3657 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3658 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3659 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3660 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3661 multiple values to extend the available space.
3662
3663 [Bodo Moeller]
3664
3665 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3666
3667 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3668 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3669
3670 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3671 [Ben Laurie]
3672
3673 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3674 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3675 undesirable limitations.
3676 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3677
3678 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3679 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3680 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3681 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3682 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3683 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3684 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3685 [Bodo Moeller]
3686
3687 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3688
3689 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3690 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3691 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3692
3693 The latter two were purportedly from
3694 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3695 appear there.
3696
3697 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3698 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3699 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3700 [Bodo Moeller]
3701
3702 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3703 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3704 [Bodo Moeller]
3705
3706 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3707 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3708 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3709 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3710
3711 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3712 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3713 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3714 [NTT]
3715
3716 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3717 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3718 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3719 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3720 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3721 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3722 [Steve Henson]
3723
3724 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3725
3726 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3727 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3728 [Steve Henson]
3729
3730 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3731 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3732
3733 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3734 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3735 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3736 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3737 [Douglas Stebila]
3738
3739 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3740 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3741 [Steve Henson]
3742
3743 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3744 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3745 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3746 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3747 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3748 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3749 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3750 can't be loaded.
3751 [Steve Henson]
3752
3753 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3754 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3755 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3756 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3757 [Steve Henson]
3758
3759 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3760 under VC++ build system.
3761 [Steve Henson]
3762
3763 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3764 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3765 [Richard Levitte]
3766
3767 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3768
3769 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3770 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3771 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3772 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3773 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3774
3775 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3776 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3777 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3778
3779 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3780 [Steve Henson]
3781
3782 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3783 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3784 [Nils Larsch]
3785
3786 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3787 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3788
3789 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3790 [Nick Mathewson]
3791
3792 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3793 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3794
3795 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3796 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3797 [Steve Henson]
3798
3799 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3800 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3801 smime utility.
3802 [Steve Henson]
3803
3804 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3805
3806 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3807 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3808
3809 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3810 [Richard Levitte]
3811
3812 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3813 key into the same file any more.
3814 [Richard Levitte]
3815
3816 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3817 [Andy Polyakov]
3818
3819 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3820 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3821
3822 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3823 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3824 [Richard Levitte]
3825
3826 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3827 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3828 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3829 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3830 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3831 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3832
3833 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3834 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3835 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3836 [Steve Henson]
3837
3838 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3839 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3840 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3841 - add new function for parameter creation
3842 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3843 BN_BLINDING parameters
3844 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3845 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3846 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3847 threads.
3848 [Nils Larsch]
3849
3850 *) Add support for DTLS.
3851 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3852
3853 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3854 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3855 [Walter Goulet]
3856
3857 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3858 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3859 [Nils Larsch]
3860
3861 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3862 the apps/openssl applications.
3863 [Nils Larsch]
3864
3865 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3866 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3867 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3868 [Ben Laurie]
3869
3870 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3871 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3872
3873 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3874 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3875
3876 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3877 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3878 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3879 avoid this algorithm.)
3880
3881 [Bodo Moeller]
3882
3883 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3884 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3885 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3886 [Richard Levitte]
3887
3888 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3889 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3890 [Andy Polyakov]
3891
3892 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3893 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3894 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3895 pod file:
3896
3897 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3898
3899 The blank line is mandatory.
3900
3901 [Steve Henson]
3902
3903 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3904 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3905 sources.
3906 [Steve Henson]
3907
3908 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3909 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3910
3911 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3912 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3913 to support policy checking and print out.
3914 [Steve Henson]
3915
3916 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3917 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3918 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3919 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3920
3921 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3922 [Geoff Thorpe]
3923
3924 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3925 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3926
3927 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3928 implementation contributed by IBM.
3929 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3930
3931 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3932 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3933 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3934 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3935
3936 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3937 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3938
3939 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3940 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3941 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3942 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3943 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3944 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3945 [Steve Henson]
3946
3947 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3948 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3949 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3950 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3951 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3952 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3953 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3954 [Geoff Thorpe]
3955
3956 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3957 [Steve Henson]
3958
3959 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3960 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3961 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3962 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3963 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3964 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3965 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3966 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3967 [Steve Henson]
3968
3969 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3970 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3971 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3972 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3973 [Steve Henson]
3974
3975 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3976 syntax:
3977
3978 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3979 [Steve Henson]
3980
3981 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3982 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3983 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3984 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3985 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3986 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3987 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3988 [Geoff Thorpe]
3989
3990 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3991 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3992 [Geoff Thorpe]
3993
3994 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3995 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3996 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3997 [Steve Henson]
3998
3999 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
4000 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
4001 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
4002 below).
4003 [Geoff Thorpe]
4004
4005 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
4006 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
4007 [Richard Levitte]
4008
4009 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
4010 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
4011 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
4012 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
4013 [Geoff Thorpe]
4014
4015 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
4016 initialised value as BN_new().
4017 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
4018
4019 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
4020 [Steve Henson]
4021
4022 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
4023 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
4024 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
4025 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
4026 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
4027 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
4028 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
4029 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
4030 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
4031 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
4032 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
4033 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
4034 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
4035 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
4036 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
4037
4038 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
4039 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
4040 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
4041 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
4042 [Geoff Thorpe]
4043
4044 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
4045 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
4046 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
4047 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
4048 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
4049 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
4050 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
4051 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
4052 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
4053 [Geoff Thorpe]
4054
4055 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
4056 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
4057 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
4058 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
4059 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
4060 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
4061 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
4062 [Geoff Thorpe]
4063
4064 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
4065 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
4066 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
4067 these have been updated also.
4068 [Geoff Thorpe]
4069
4070 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
4071 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
4072 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
4073 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
4074 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
4075 functions.
4076 [Steve Henson]
4077
4078 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
4079 structure of type "other".
4080 [Steve Henson]
4081
4082 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
4083 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
4084 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
4085 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
4086 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
4087 situation in the script.
4088 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4089
4090 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4091 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
4092 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
4093 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
4094 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
4095 used as premaster secret.
4096 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4097
4098 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
4099 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
4100 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4101
4102 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
4103 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
4104
4105 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
4106 control of the error stack.
4107 [Richard Levitte]
4108
4109 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
4110 [Richard Levitte]
4111
4112 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
4113 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
4114 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
4115 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
4116 [Richard Levitte]
4117
4118 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
4119 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
4120 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
4121 [Richard Levitte]
4122
4123 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
4124 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
4125 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
4126 a memory area.
4127 [Richard Levitte]
4128
4129 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
4130 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
4131 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
4132 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
4133 [Richard Levitte]
4134
4135 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
4136 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
4137 the following flags are defined:
4138
4139 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
4140 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4141 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
4142 number.
4143
4144 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
4145 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4146 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
4147 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
4148 returns zero.
4149 [Richard Levitte]
4150
4151 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
4152 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
4153 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
4154 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
4155 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
4156 [Richard Levitte]
4157
4158 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
4159 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
4160 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
4161 [Richard Levitte]
4162
4163 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4164 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4165 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4166 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4167 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4168 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4169 [Richard Levitte]
4170
4171 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
4172 req and dirName.
4173 [Steve Henson]
4174
4175 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
4176 [Steve Henson]
4177
4178 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
4179 [Steve Henson]
4180
4181 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
4182 [Steve Henson]
4183
4184 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
4185 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
4186 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
4187 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
4188 default implementation more easily.
4189 [Geoff Thorpe]
4190
4191 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
4192 in config files.
4193 [Steve Henson]
4194
4195 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
4196 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
4197 [Richard Levitte]
4198
4199 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
4200 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
4201 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
4202 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
4203
4204 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
4205 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
4206 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
4207 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
4208 [Steve Henson]
4209
4210 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
4211 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
4212 to do it.
4213 [Richard Levitte]
4214
4215 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
4216 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
4217 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
4218 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
4219 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
4220 scalar * generator).
4221 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
4222
4223 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
4224 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
4225 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
4226 correctly.
4227 [Steve Henson]
4228
4229 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
4230 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
4231 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
4232 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
4233 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
4234 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
4235 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
4236 linker additions, eg;
4237 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
4238 [Geoff Thorpe]
4239
4240 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
4241 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
4242 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
4243 [Geoff Thorpe]
4244
4245 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4246 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4247 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
4248 via PR#459)
4249 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4250
4251 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
4252 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
4253 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
4254 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
4255 [Geoff Thorpe]
4256
4257 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
4258 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
4259 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
4260 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
4261 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
4262 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
4263 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
4264 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
4265 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
4266 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
4267
4268 Example for using the new callback interface:
4269
4270 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
4271 void *my_arg = ...;
4272 BN_GENCB my_cb;
4273
4274 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
4275
4276 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
4277 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
4278 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
4279 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
4280 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
4281 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
4282 */
4283
4284 [Geoff Thorpe]
4285
4286 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
4287 available to TLS with the number defined in
4288 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
4289 [Richard Levitte]
4290
4291 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
4292 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
4293
4294 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
4295 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4296 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4297 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
4298
4299 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
4300 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
4301
4302 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
4303 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
4304 well.
4305 [Richard Levitte]
4306
4307 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
4308 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
4309 [Richard Levitte]
4310
4311 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
4312 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
4313 and a macro that behave like
4314 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
4315
4316 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
4317 [Nils Larsch]
4318
4319 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
4320 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
4321 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
4322 if applicable.
4323 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4324
4325 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
4326 [Bodo Moeller]
4327
4328 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
4329 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
4330 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
4331 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
4332 directory engines/.
4333 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
4334 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
4335 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
4336 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
4337 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
4338 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
4339 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
4340 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
4341
4342 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
4343 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
4344 [Richard Levitte]
4345
4346 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
4347 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
4348
4349 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
4350 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
4351 files while avoiding the low level API.
4352
4353 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
4354 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
4355 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
4356 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
4357
4358 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
4359 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
4360 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
4361 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
4362 instead of the low level API.
4363 [Steve Henson]
4364
4365 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
4366 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
4367 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
4368 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
4369 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
4370 PKCS#7 code.
4371
4372 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
4373 down to the template encoder.
4374 [Steve Henson]
4375
4376 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
4377 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
4378 [Bodo Moeller]
4379
4380 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
4381 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
4382 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
4383 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4384
4385 *) Add ECDH engine support.
4386 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4387
4388 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
4389 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4390
4391 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
4392 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
4393 [Bodo Moeller]
4394
4395 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
4396 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
4397 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
4398 [Bodo Moeller]
4399
4400 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
4401 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
4402
4403 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4404 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4405
4406 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4407 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4408 New EC_METHOD:
4409
4410 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4411
4412 New API functions:
4413
4414 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4415 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4416 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4417 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4418 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4419 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4420
4421 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4422 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4423 enable it).
4424
4425 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4426 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4427 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4428 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4429 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4430 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4431 various internal method names.)
4432
4433 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4434 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4435
4436 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4437 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4438
4439 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4440 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4441
4442 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4443 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4444 methods are undefined.
4445
4446 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4447 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4448
4449 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4450 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4451 length of the modulus.
4452
4453 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4454 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4455
4456 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4457 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4458
4459 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4460 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4461
4462 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4463 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4464 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4465
4466 BN_GF2m_add
4467 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4468 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4469 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4470 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4471 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4472 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4473 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4474 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4475 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4476
4477 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4478 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4479
4480 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4481 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4482 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4483 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4484 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4485 where
4486 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4487 This applies to the following functions:
4488
4489 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4490 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4491 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4492 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4493 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4494 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4495 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4496 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4497 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4498 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4499
4500 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4501
4502 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4503 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4504
4505 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4506
4507 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4508 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4509 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4510 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4511 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4512
4513 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4514 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4515
4516 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4517 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4518 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4519
4520 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4521 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4522
4523 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4524 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4525 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4526 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4527 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4528
4529 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4530 functions
4531 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4532 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4533 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4534 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4535 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4536 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4537 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4538 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4539 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4540 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4541 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4542 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4543
4544 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4545 functions
4546 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4547 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4548 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4549 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4550 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4551
4552 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4553 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4554 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4555 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4556
4557 *) Add functions
4558 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4559 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4560 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4561 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4562 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4563 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4564 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4565
4566 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4567 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4568 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4569 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4570 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4571 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4572 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4573 adding different types of curves.
4574 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4575
4576 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4577 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4578 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4579 [Bodo Moeller]
4580
4581 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4582 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4583
4584 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4585 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4586 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4587 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4588
4589 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4590
4591 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4592 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4593
4594 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4595 library. Most notably,
4596 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4597 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4598 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4599 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4600 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4601 extracted before the specific public key;
4602 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4603 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4604
4605 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4606 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4607 function
4608 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4609 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4610 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4611 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4612 accessed via
4613 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4614 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4615 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4616
4617 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4618 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4619 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4620 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4621 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4622 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4623 differing sizes.
4624 [Richard Levitte]
4625
4626 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4627
4628 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4629 sensitive data.
4630 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4631
4632 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4633 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4634 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4635 [Bodo Moeller]
4636
4637 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4638 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4639 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4640 [Victor Duchovni]
4641
4642 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4643 [Steve Henson]
4644
4645 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4646 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4647 [Steve Henson]
4648
4649 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4650 run algorithm test programs.
4651 [Steve Henson]
4652
4653 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4654 [Steve Henson]
4655
4656 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4657 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4658 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4659 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4660 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4661 [Bodo Moeller]
4662
4663 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4664 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4665 [Steve Henson]
4666
4667 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4668
4669 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4670 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4671 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4672
4673 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4674 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4675
4676 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4677 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4678
4679 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4680 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4681 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4682
4683 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4684 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4685 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4686 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4687 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4688 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4689 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4690 [Bodo Moeller]
4691
4692 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4693
4694 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4695 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4696
4697 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4698 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4699 undesirable limitations.
4700 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4701
4702 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4703
4704 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4705 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4706 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4707
4708 The latter two were purportedly from
4709 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4710 appear there.
4711
4712 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4713 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4714 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4715 [Bodo Moeller]
4716
4717 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4718 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4719 [Bodo Moeller]
4720
4721 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4722
4723 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4724 module in FIPS mode.
4725 [Steve Henson]
4726
4727 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4728 [Steve Henson]
4729
4730 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4731 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4732 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4733 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4734 [Steve Henson]
4735
4736 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4737
4738 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4739 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4740 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4741 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4742 the difference induced by this change.
4743 [Andy Polyakov]
4744
4745 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4746
4747 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4748 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4749 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4750 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4751 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4752
4753 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4754 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4755 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4756
4757 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4758 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4759 [Steve Henson]
4760
4761 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4762 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4763 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4764 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4765 biased k.)
4766 [Bodo Moeller]
4767
4768 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4769 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4770 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4771 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4772 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4773
4774 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4775 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4776 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4777 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4778 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4779 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4780
4781 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4782
4783 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4784 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4785 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4786 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4787 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4788 [Bodo Moeller]
4789
4790 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4791 clients need.
4792 [Steve Henson]
4793
4794 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4795 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4796 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4797 [Steve Henson]
4798
4799 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4800 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4801 structures constant.
4802 [Steve Henson]
4803
4804 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4805
4806 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4807 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4808
4809 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4810 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4811 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4812 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4813 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4814 some needed definitions.
4815 [Steve Henson]
4816
4817 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4818 [Ulf Möller]
4819
4820 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4821 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4822 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4823 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4824 [Richard Levitte]
4825
4826 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4827
4828 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4829 server and client random values. Previously
4830 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4831 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4832
4833 This change has negligible security impact because:
4834
4835 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4836 data.
4837
4838 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4839 handshake.
4840
4841 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4842 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4843 values.
4844
4845 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4846 to our attention.
4847
4848 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4849
4850 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4851 [Ulf Möller]
4852
4853 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4854 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4855 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4856
4857 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
4860 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4861 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4862 [Andy Polyakov]
4863
4864 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4865 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4866 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4867
4868 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4869 [Steve Henson]
4870
4871 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4872 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4873 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4874 certificates.
4875 [Steve Henson]
4876
4877 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4878 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4879 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4880 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4881
4882 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4883 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4884 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4885 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4886 been given)
4887 [Richard Levitte]
4888
4889 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4890
4891 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4892 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4893 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4894 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4895 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4896 [Steve Henson]
4897
4898 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4899 [Steve Henson]
4900
4901 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4902 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4903
4904 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4905 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4906 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4907 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4908 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4909 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4910 rather than being initialized to 1.
4911 [Steve Henson]
4912
4913 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4914
4915 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4916 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4917 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4918
4919 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4920 (CVE-2004-0112)
4921 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4922
4923 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4924 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4925 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4926 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4927 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4928 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4929 [Richard Levitte]
4930
4931 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4932 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4933 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4934 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4935 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4936 for these cases.
4937 [Steve Henson]
4938
4939 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4940 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4941 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4942 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4943 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4944 [Steve Henson]
4945
4946 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4947 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4948 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4949 < 0.9.7.
4950 [Steve Henson]
4951
4952 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4953 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4954
4955 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4956 [Steve Henson]
4957
4958 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4959
4960 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4961
4962 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4963 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4964
4965 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4966
4967 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4968 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4969
4970 [Steve Henson]
4971
4972 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4973 exiting on the first error in a request.
4974 [Steve Henson]
4975
4976 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4977 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4978 specifications.
4979 [Steve Henson]
4980
4981 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4982 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4983 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4984 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4985
4986 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4987 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4988 [Richard Levitte]
4989
4990 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4991 blocks during encryption.
4992 [Richard Levitte]
4993
4994 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4995 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4996 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4997 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4998 certain size.
4999 [Steve Henson]
5000
5001 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
5002 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
5003 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
5004 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
5005 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
5006 parser.
5007 [Steve Henson]
5008
5009 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
5010
5011 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5012 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5013 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5014 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5015 [Bodo Moeller]
5016
5017 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5018 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5019 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5020 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5021 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5022
5023 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5024 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5025 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5026 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5027 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5028 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5029 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5030 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5031 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5032 [Bodo Moeller]
5033
5034 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
5035 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
5036 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
5037 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
5038 [Geoff Thorpe]
5039
5040 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
5041 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
5042 [Ulf Moeller]
5043
5044 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
5045
5046 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5047 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5048 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5049 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5050 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5051
5052 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5053 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5054 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5055
5056 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
5057 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
5058 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
5059 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
5060 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
5061
5062 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
5063 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
5064 used by default when no-err is given.
5065 [Richard Levitte]
5066
5067 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
5068 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
5069
5070 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
5071 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
5072 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
5073 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
5074 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
5075
5076 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
5077 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
5078 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
5079 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
5080
5081 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
5082
5083 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
5084
5085 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
5086
5087 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
5088 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
5089 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
5090 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
5091 root is omitted).
5092 [Steve Henson]
5093
5094 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
5095 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5096
5097 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
5098 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
5099 [Steve Henson]
5100
5101 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5102 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5103 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
5104 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
5105 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5106
5107 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
5108 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
5109 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
5110 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
5111 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
5112 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5113 followup to PR #377.
5114 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5115
5116 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
5117 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
5118 [Andy Polyakov]
5119
5120 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
5121 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
5122 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
5123 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
5124
5125 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
5126
5127 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
5128 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
5129
5130 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
5131 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
5132 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
5133 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
5134 client and server.
5135 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5136 PR #377.
5137 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5138
5139 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
5140 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
5141 removed entirely.
5142 [Richard Levitte]
5143
5144 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
5145 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
5146 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
5147 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
5148 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
5149 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
5150 of libcrypto.
5151 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
5152 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
5153 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
5154 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
5155 have to be made anyway).
5156 [Richard Levitte]
5157
5158 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
5159 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
5160 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
5161 [Steve Henson]
5162
5163 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
5164 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
5165 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
5166 [Richard Levitte]
5167
5168 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
5169 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
5170 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5171
5172 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
5173 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
5174 edit numbers of the version.
5175 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
5176
5177 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
5178 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
5179 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
5180
5181 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
5182 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5183
5184 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5185 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5186 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5187
5188 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
5189 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5190
5191 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
5192 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5193
5194 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
5195 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5196
5197 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
5198 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5199
5200 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
5201 overflows.
5202 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5203
5204 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
5205 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
5206 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5207
5208 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
5209 representations in a platform independent manner.
5210 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5211
5212 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5213 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5214 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5215
5216 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
5217 indents.
5218 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5219
5220 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
5221 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5222
5223 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
5224 full. Fixed.
5225 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5226
5227 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
5228 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
5229 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5230
5231 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
5232 unconditionally).
5233 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5234
5235 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
5236 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5237
5238 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
5239 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5240
5241 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
5242 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5243
5244 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
5245 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5246
5247 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
5248 CBCParameter.
5249 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5250
5251 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
5252 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5253
5254 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
5255 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5256
5257 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
5258 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
5259 exploitable.
5260 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5261
5262 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
5263 the 0.9.6 release series:
5264
5265 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5266 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
5267 (CVE-2002-0657)
5268 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5269
5270 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
5271 [Richard Levitte]
5272
5273 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
5274 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
5275
5276 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
5277 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
5278
5279 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
5280 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
5281 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
5282 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
5283
5284 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
5285 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
5286 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
5287
5288 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
5289 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
5290 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
5291 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5292
5293 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
5294 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
5295 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
5296 some local tweaks:
5297
5298 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
5299 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
5300 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
5301 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5302 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5303 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
5304 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
5305 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
5306 done
5307
5308 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
5309 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
5310 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
5311 [Richard Levitte]
5312
5313 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
5314 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
5315 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
5316 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
5317 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
5318
5319 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
5320 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
5321
5322 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
5323 error in AES-CFB decryption.
5324 [Richard Levitte]
5325
5326 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
5327 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
5328 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
5329 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
5330 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
5331 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
5332 [Steve Henson]
5333
5334 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
5335 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
5336 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
5337 [Steve Henson]
5338
5339 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
5340 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
5341 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5342
5343 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
5344 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
5345 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
5346 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
5347 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
5348 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
5349 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
5350 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5351
5352 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
5353 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
5354 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
5355 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
5356 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
5357 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
5358 [Steve Henson]
5359
5360 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
5361 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
5362 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
5363 declaration has been changed from
5364 int (*cb)()
5365 into
5366 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
5367 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
5368 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
5369 has been changed into
5370 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
5371
5372 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
5373 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
5374 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
5375
5376 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
5377 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
5378
5379 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
5380 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
5381 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
5382 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
5383 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
5384 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
5385 always load it have also been added.
5386 [Steve Henson]
5387
5388 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
5389 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
5390 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5391
5392 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
5393
5394 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
5395 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
5396 because it couldn't be used for anything.
5397
5398 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
5399 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
5400 command line option can be used to specify an
5401 alternative file.
5402 [Steve Henson]
5403
5404 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5405 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5406 [Steve Henson]
5407
5408 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5409 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5410 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5414 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5415 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5416 to work with the new engine framework.
5417 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5418
5419 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5420 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5421 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5422 to work with the new engine framework.
5423 [Richard Levitte]
5424
5425 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5426 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5427 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5428
5429 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5430 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5431
5432 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5433 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5434 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5435 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5436 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5437 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5438
5439 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5440 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5441
5442 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5443 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5444
5445 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5446 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5447 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5448 [Ben Laurie]
5449
5450 *) Add new functions
5451 ERR_peek_last_error
5452 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5453 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5454 These are similar to
5455 ERR_peek_error
5456 ERR_peek_error_line
5457 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5458 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5459 still in the error queue.
5460 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5461
5462 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5463 like:
5464 default_algorithms = ALL
5465 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5466 [Steve Henson]
5467
5468 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
5469 [Steve Henson]
5470
5471 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5472 [Steve Henson]
5473
5474 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5475 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5476 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5477 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5478
5479 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5480 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5481
5482 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5483 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5484
5485 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5486 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5487 [Bodo Moeller]
5488
5489 *) New functions/macros
5490
5491 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5492 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5493 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5494 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5495
5496 to request calling a callback function
5497
5498 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5499 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5500
5501 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5502 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5503 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5504 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5505 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5506 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5507 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5508 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5509 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5510 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5511
5512 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5513 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5514 [Bodo Moeller]
5515
5516 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5517 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5518 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5519 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5520 the configuration scripts.
5521
5522 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5523 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5524 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5525
5526 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5527 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5528
5529 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5530 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5531 when reusing an existing buffer.
5532 [Bodo Moeller]
5533
5534 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5535 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5536 [Steve Henson]
5537
5538 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5539 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5540 [Ben Laurie]
5541
5542 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5543 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5544 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5545 has the same effect.
5546 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5547
5548 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5549 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5550 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5551 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5552 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5553 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5554 exception.
5555
5556 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5557 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5558 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5559 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5560
5561 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5562 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5563 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5564 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5565
5566 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5567 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5568 won't work.
5569
5570 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5571 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5572 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5573 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5574 default), and then completely removed.
5575 [Richard Levitte]
5576
5577 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5578 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5579 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5580 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5581 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5582 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5583 particular extension is supported.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5587 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5588 [Steve Henson]
5589
5590 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5591 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5592 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5593 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5594 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5595 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5596 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5597 requires the destination to be valid.
5598
5599 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5600 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5601 [Steve Henson]
5602
5603 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5604 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5605 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5606 [Bodo Moeller]
5607
5608 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5609 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5610
5611 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5612 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5613 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5614 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5615 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5616 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5617 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5618 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5619 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5620 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5621 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5622 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5623 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5624 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5625 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5626 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5627 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5628 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5629 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5630 the new code.
5631 [Geoff Thorpe]
5632
5633 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5634 [Steve Henson]
5635
5636 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5637 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5638 become part of libeay.num as well.
5639 [Richard Levitte]
5640
5641 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5642 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5643 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5644 false once a handshake has been completed.
5645 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5646 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5647 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5648 client has followed the request.)
5649 [Bodo Moeller]
5650
5651 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5652 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5653 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5654 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5655
5656 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5657 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5658 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5659 [Bodo Moeller]
5660
5661 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5662 [Steve Henson]
5663
5664 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5665 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5666 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5667 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5668
5669 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5670 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5671 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5672
5673 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5674 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5675 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5676 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5677 [Geoff Thorpe]
5678
5679 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5680 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5681 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5682 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5683 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5684 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5685 [Geoff Thorpe]
5686
5687 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5688 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5689 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5690 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5691 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5692 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5693 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5694 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5695 [Geoff Thorpe]
5696
5697 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5698 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5699 [Geoff Thorpe]
5700
5701 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5702 [Ben Laurie]
5703
5704 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5705 md_data void pointer.
5706 [Ben Laurie]
5707
5708 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5709 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5710 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5711 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5712 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5713 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5714 [Ben Laurie]
5715
5716 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5717 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5718 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5719 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5720 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5721 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5722 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5723 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5724 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5725 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5726 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5727 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5728 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5729 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5730 rather than letting it slide.
5731
5732 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5733 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5734 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5735 [Geoff Thorpe]
5736
5737 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5738 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5739 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5740 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5741 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5742 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5743 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5744 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5745 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5746 [Geoff Thorpe]
5747
5748 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5749 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5750 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5751 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5752 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5753
5754 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5755 [Geoff Thorpe]
5756
5757 *) Add EVP test program.
5758 [Ben Laurie]
5759
5760 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5761 [Ben Laurie]
5762
5763 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5764 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5765 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5766 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5767 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5768 [Steve Henson]
5769
5770 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5771 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5772 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5773 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5774 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5775 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5776 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5777
5778 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5779 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5780 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5781 Usage example:
5782
5783 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5784
5785 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5786 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5787 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5788 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5789 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5790
5791 [Ben Laurie]
5792
5793 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5794 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5795 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5796 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5797 anyway): E.g.,
5798
5799 des_key_schedule ks;
5800
5801 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5802 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5803
5804 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5805 [Ben Laurie]
5806
5807 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5808 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5809 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5810 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5811 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5812 functions prevents this.
5813 [Steve Henson]
5814
5815 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5816 [Ben Laurie]
5817
5818 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5819 correct _ecb suffix.
5820 [Ben Laurie]
5821
5822 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5823 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5824 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5825 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5826 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5827 [Steve Henson]
5828
5829 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5830 [Richard Levitte]
5831
5832 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5833 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5834 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5835 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5836
5837 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5838 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5839
5840 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5841 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5842 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5843 via Richard Levitte]
5844
5845 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5846 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5847 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5848 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5849 [Geoff Thorpe]
5850
5851 *) Speed up EVP routines.

5867 [Ben Laurie]
5868
5869 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5870 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5871
5872 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5873 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5874 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5875 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5876 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5877 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5878 [Steve Henson]
5879
5880 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5881 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5882 [Richard Levitte]
5883
5884 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5885 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5886 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5887 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5888
5889 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5890 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5891 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5892 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5893 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5894 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5895 callback.
5896 [Richard Levitte]
5897
5898 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5899 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5900 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5901 and interrupts/cancellations.
5902 [Richard Levitte]
5903
5904 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5905 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5906 [Steve Henson]
5907
5908 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5909 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5910 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5911
5912 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5913 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5914 kind of callback.
5915 [Richard Levitte]
5916
5917 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5918 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5919 than this minimum value is recommended.
5920 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5921
5922 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5923 that are easily reachable.
5924 [Richard Levitte]
5925
5926 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5927 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5928
5929 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5930
5931 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5932 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5933 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5934 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5935 [Steve Henson]
5936
5937 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5938 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5939 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5940 [Steve Henson]
5941
5942 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5943 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5944 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5945 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5946 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5947 internally such as S/MIME.
5948
5949 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5950 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5951 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5952
5953 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5954 applications.
5955 [Steve Henson]
5956
5957 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5958 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5959 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5960 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5961
5962 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5963
5964 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5965
5966 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5967 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5968 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5969 handling.
5970 [Steve Henson]
5971
5972 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5973 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5974 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5975 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5976 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5977 a window system and the like.
5978 [Richard Levitte]
5979
5980 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5981 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5982 [Geoff]
5983
5984 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5985 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5986 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5987 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5988 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5989 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5990 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5991 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5992 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5993 ENGINE structure.
5994 [Geoff]
5995
5996 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5997 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5998 tag cache.
5999 [Steve Henson]
6000
6001 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
6002 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
6003 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
6004 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
6005 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
6006 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
6007 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
6008 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
6009 [Geoff]
6010
6011 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
6012 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
6013 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
6014 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
6015 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
6016 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
6017 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
6018 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
6019 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
6020 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
6021 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
6022 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
6023 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
6024 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
6025 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
6026 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
6027 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
6028 [Geoff]
6029
6030 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
6031 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
6032 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
6033 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
6034 internal engine_int.h header.
6035 [Geoff]
6036
6037 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
6038 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
6039 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
6040 modify their own ones).
6041 [Geoff]
6042
6043 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
6044 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
6045 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
6046 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
6047 later on via ctrl() commands.
6048 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
6049 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
6050 structural references.
6051 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
6052 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
6053 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
6054 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
6055 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
6056 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
6057 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
6058 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
6059 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
6060 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
6061 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
6062 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
6063 [Geoff]
6064
6065 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
6066 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
6067 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
6068 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
6069 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
6070 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
6071 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
6072 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
6073 [Bodo Moeller]
6074
6075 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
6076 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
6077 [Steve Henson]
6078
6079 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
6080 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
6081 [Steve Henson]
6082
6083 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
6084 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
6085 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
6086 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
6087 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
6088 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
6089 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
6090 [Steve Henson]
6091
6092 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
6093 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
6094 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
6095 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
6096 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
6097
6098 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
6099 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
6100 generator).
6101 [Bodo Moeller]
6102
6103 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
6104
6105 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
6106 operations and provides various method functions that can also
6107 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
6108
6109 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
6110 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
6111
6112 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
6113 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
6114 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
6115
6116 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
6117 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
6118
6119 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
6120 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
6121
6122 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
6123
6124 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
6125 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
6126 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
6127 [Bodo Moeller]
6128
6129 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
6130 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
6131 [Richard Levitte]
6132
6133 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
6134 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
6135 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
6136 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
6137 is 40 of more characters long.
6138 [Steve Henson]
6139
6140 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
6141 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
6142 pointers.
6143 [Steve Henson]
6144
6145 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
6146 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
6147 [Bodo Moeller]
6148
6149 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
6150 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
6151 might.
6152 [Steve Henson]
6153
6154 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
6155
6156 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
6157 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
6158
6159 ASN1 error codes
6160 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
6161 ...
6162 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
6163 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
6164 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
6165 ...
6166 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
6167 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
6168
6169 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
6170 [Bodo Moeller]
6171
6172 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
6173 suffices.
6174 [Bodo Moeller]
6175
6176 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
6177 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
6178 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
6179 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
6180 and
6181 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
6182
6183 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
6184 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
6185
6186 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
6187 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
6188 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
6189 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
6190 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
6191 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
6192
6193 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
6194 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
6195
6196 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
6197 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6198
6199 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
6200 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
6201
6202 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
6203 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
6204 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6205 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
6206
6207 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
6208 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
6209
6210 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
6211 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
6212
6213 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
6214 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
6215 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
6216 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
6217 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
6218 [Richard Levitte]
6219
6220 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
6221 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
6222 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
6223 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
6224 [Steve Henson]
6225
6226 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
6227 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
6228 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
6229 trust settings.
6230 [Steve Henson]
6231
6232 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
6233 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
6234 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
6235 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
6236 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
6237 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
6238 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
6239 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
6240 ocsp utility.
6241 [Steve Henson]
6242
6243 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
6244 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
6245 [Steve Henson]
6246
6247 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
6248 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
6249 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
6250 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
6251 [Steve Henson]
6252
6253 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
6254 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
6255 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
6256 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
6257 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
6258 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
6259 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
6260 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
6261 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
6262 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
6263 [Steve Henson]
6264
6265 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
6266 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
6267 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
6268 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
6269 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
6270 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
6271 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
6272 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6273
6274 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
6275 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
6276 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
6277 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
6278 [Richard Levitte]
6279
6280 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
6281 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
6282 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
6283 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
6284 opensslconf.h.
6285 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
6286 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
6287 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
6288 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
6289 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
6290 what is available.
6291 [Richard Levitte]
6292
6293 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
6294 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
6295 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
6296 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
6297 auto incremented.
6298 [Steve Henson]
6299
6300 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
6301 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
6302 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
6303 [Steve Henson]
6304
6305 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
6306 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
6307 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
6308 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
6309 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
6310 [Steve Henson]
6311
6312 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
6313 [Steve Henson]
6314
6315 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
6316 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
6317 option to ocsp utility.
6318 [Steve Henson]
6319
6320 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
6321 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
6322 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
6323 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
6324 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
6325 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
6326 the request is nonce-less.
6327 [Steve Henson]
6328
6329 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
6330 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
6331 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
6332 [Bodo Moeller]
6333
6334 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
6335 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
6336 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
6337 [Steve Henson]
6338
6339 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
6340 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
6341 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
6342 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
6343 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
6344 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6345
6346 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
6347 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
6348 appear to exist.
6349 [Steve Henson]
6350
6351 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
6352 additional certificates supplied.
6353 [Steve Henson]
6354
6355 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
6356 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
6357 signature against.
6358 [Richard Levitte]
6359
6360 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
6361 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
6362 AES OIDs.
6363
6364 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
6365 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
6366 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
6367 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
6368 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
6369 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
6370 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
6371 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
6372 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6373
6374 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
6375 request to response.
6376 [Steve Henson]
6377
6378 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
6379 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
6380 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
6381 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
6382 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
6383 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
6384 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
6385 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
6386 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
6387 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
6388 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
6389 [Steve Henson]
6390
6391 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
6392 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
6393 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
6394 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
6395 [Steve Henson]
6396
6397 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
6398 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6399
6400 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
6401 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
6402 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6403 [Steve Henson]
6404
6405 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6406 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6407 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6408 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6409 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6410
6411 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6412 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6413 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6414 [Steve Henson]
6415
6416 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6417 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6418 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6419 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6420 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6421 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6422 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6423 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6424
6425 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6426 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6427 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6428 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6429 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6430 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6431 [Steve Henson]
6432
6433 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6434 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6435 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6436 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6437 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6438 printout format cleaned up.
6439 [Steve Henson]
6440
6441 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6442 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6443 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6444 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6445 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6446 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6447 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6448 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6449 [Steve Henson]
6450
6451 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6452 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6453 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6454 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6455 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6456 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6457 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6458 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6459 [Steve Henson]
6460
6461 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6462 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6463 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6464 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6465 section to use.
6466 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6467
6468 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6469 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6470 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6471 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6472 [Steve Henson]
6473
6474 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6475 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6476 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6477 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6478 in the index file.
6479 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6480
6481 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6482 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6483 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6484 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6485
6486 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6487 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6488
6489 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6490 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6491 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6492 [Steve Henson]
6493
6494 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6495 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6496 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6497 [Bodo Moeller]
6498
6499 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6500 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6501 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6502 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6503 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6504 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6505 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6506 functions are provided:
6507
6508 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6509 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6510 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6511 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6512
6513 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6514 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6515 extended allocation function is enabled.
6516 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6517 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6518 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6519
6520 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6521 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6522 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6523 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6524 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6525 [Geoff Thorpe]
6526
6527 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6528 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6529 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6530 be queried.
6531 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6532 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6533 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6534 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6535
6536 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6537 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6538 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6539 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6540 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6541 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6542 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6543 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6544 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6545 [Richard Levitte]
6546
6547 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6548 provide utility functions which an application needing
6549 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6550 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6551 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6552
6553 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6554 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6555 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6556 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6557 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6558 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6559 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6560 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6561 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6562
6563 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6564 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6565 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6566 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6567 [Steve Henson]
6568
6569 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6570 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6571 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6572 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6573 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6574 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6575 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6576 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6577 will be added elsewhere.
6578 [Steve Henson]
6579
6580 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6581 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6582 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6583 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6584 [Steve Henson]
6585
6586 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6587 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6588 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6589 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6590 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6591 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6592 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6593 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6594 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6595 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6596 to produce the required SET OF.
6597 [Steve Henson]
6598
6599 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6600 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6601 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6602 [Richard Levitte]
6603
6604 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6605 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6606 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6607 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6608 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6609 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6610 [Steve Henson]
6611
6612 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6613 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6614 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6615 [Steve Henson]
6616
6617 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6618 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6619 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6620 [Richard Levitte]
6621
6622 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6623 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6624 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6625 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6626 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6627 [Steve Henson]
6628
6629 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6630 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6631 [Steve Henson]
6632
6633 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6634 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6635 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6636 certifcates and CRLs.
6637 [Steve Henson]
6638
6639 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6640 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6641 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6642 [Steve Henson]
6643
6644 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6645 entries for variables.
6646 [Steve Henson]
6647
6648 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6649 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6650 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6651 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6652 [Bodo Moeller]
6653
6654 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6655 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6656 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6657 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6658 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6659 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6660 [Bodo Moeller]
6661
6662 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6663 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6664
6665 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6666 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6667 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6668 [Steve Henson]
6669
6670 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6671 print routines.
6672 [Steve Henson]
6673
6674 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6675 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6676 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6677 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6678 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6679 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6680 [Steve Henson]
6681
6682 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6683 [Steve Henson]
6684
6685 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6686 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6687 for now but they will eventually go away.
6688 [Steve Henson]
6689
6690 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6691 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6692 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6693 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6694 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6695 has also been converted to the new form.
6696 [Steve Henson]
6697
6698 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6699 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6700 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6701 for negative moduli.
6702 [Bodo Moeller]
6703
6704 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6705 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6706 [Bodo Moeller]
6707
6708 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6709 set.
6710 [Bodo Moeller]
6711
6712 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6713 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6714 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6715 type-specific callbacks.
6716 [Geoff Thorpe]
6717
6718 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6719 RFC 2712.
6720 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6721 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6722
6723 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6724 in sections depending on the subject.
6725 [Richard Levitte]
6726
6727 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6728 Windows.
6729 [Richard Levitte]
6730
6731 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6732 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6733 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6734 be handled deterministically).
6735 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6736
6737 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6738 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6739 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6740 [Bodo Moeller]
6741
6742 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6743 [Bodo Moeller]
6744
6745 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6746 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6747 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6748 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6749 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6750 [Bodo Moeller]
6751
6752 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6753 sign of the number in question.
6754
6755 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6756
6757 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6758 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6759 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6760 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6761 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6762 [Bodo Moeller]
6763
6764 *) New function BN_swap.
6765 [Bodo Moeller]
6766
6767 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6768 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6769 results on negative inputs.
6770 [Bodo Moeller]
6771
6772 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6773 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6774 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6775 [Bodo Moeller]
6776
6777 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6778 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6779 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6780 and add new functions:
6781
6782 BN_nnmod
6783 BN_mod_sqr
6784 BN_mod_add
6785 BN_mod_add_quick
6786 BN_mod_sub
6787 BN_mod_sub_quick
6788 BN_mod_lshift1
6789 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6790 BN_mod_lshift
6791 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6792
6793 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6794
6795 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6796 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6797
6798 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6799 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6800 be reduced modulo m.

6803 #if 0
6804 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6805 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6806 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6807
6808 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6809 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6810 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6811 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6812 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6813 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6814 differing sizes.
6815 [Richard Levitte]
6816 #endif
6817
6818 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6819 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6820 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6821 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6822 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6823
6824 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6825 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6826 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6827 cause any problems.
6828 [Bodo Moeller]
6829
6830 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6831 [Richard Levitte]
6832
6833 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6834 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6835 [Richard Levitte]
6836
6837 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6838 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6839 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6840 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6841 time)
6842 [Richard Levitte]
6843
6844 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6845 [Richard Levitte]
6846
6847 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6848 [Richard Levitte]
6849
6850 *) Add the following functions:
6851
6852 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6853 ENGINE_load_chil()
6854 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6855 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6856 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6857
6858 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6859 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6860 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6861 libraries unless it's really needed.
6862
6863 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6864 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6865 declarations (they differed!).
6866 [Richard Levitte]
6867
6868 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6869 [Richard Levitte]
6870
6871 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6872 [Richard Levitte]
6873
6874 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6875 [Bodo Moeller]
6876
6877 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6878 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6879 [Richard Levitte]
6880
6881 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6882 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6883 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6884
6885 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6886 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6887 [Richard Levitte]
6888
6889 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6890 [Richard Levitte]
6891
6892 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6893 [Richard Levitte]
6894
6895 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6896 [Ben Laurie]
6897
6898 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6899 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6900 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6901
6902 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6903 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6904 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6905 different shared library filenames on each system.
6906 [Geoff Thorpe]
6907
6908 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6909 [Richard Levitte]
6910
6911 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6912 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6913 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6914 of two sections.
6915 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6916
6917 *) NCONF changes.
6918 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6919 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6920 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6921 binary backward compatibility.
6922 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6923 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6924 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6925 LDAP server.
6926 [Richard Levitte]
6927
6928 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6929 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6930 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6931 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6932 this case.
6933 [Steve Henson]
6934
6935 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6936 [Ben Laurie]
6937
6938 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6939 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6940 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6941 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6942 set.
6943 [Steve Henson]
6944
6945 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6946 [Richard Levitte]
6947
6948 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6949
6950 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6951 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6952 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6953
6954 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6955
6956 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6957
6958 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6959 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6960 [Steve Henson]
6961
6962 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6963
6964 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6965
6966 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6967 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6968
6969 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6970 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6971
6972 [Steve Henson]
6973
6974 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6975 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6976 specifications.
6977 [Steve Henson]
6978
6979 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6980 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6981 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6982 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6983
6984 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6985 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6986 [Richard Levitte]
6987
6988 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6989
6990 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6991 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6992 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6993 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6994 [Bodo Moeller]
6995
6996 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6997 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6998 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6999 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
7000 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7001
7002 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
7003 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
7004 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
7005 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
7006 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
7007 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
7008 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
7009 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
7010 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
7011 [Bodo Moeller]
7012
7013 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
7014
7015 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
7016 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
7017 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
7018 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
7019 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
7020
7021 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
7022 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
7023 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
7024
7025 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
7026
7027 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
7028 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
7029 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
7030 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
7031 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
7032 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
7033 [Geoff Thorpe]
7034
7035 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
7036 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
7037 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
7038 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
7039 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
7040 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7041
7042 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
7043 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
7044 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
7045
7046 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
7047 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
7048 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
7049 EVP_cleanup().
7050 [Richard Levitte]
7051
7052 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
7053 being properly terminated.
7054 [Richard Levitte]
7055
7056 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
7057 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
7058 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
7059 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
7060
7061 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
7062 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
7063 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
7064 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
7065 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
7066 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
7067 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
7068 change.
7069 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
7070
7071 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
7072 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
7073 [Bodo Moeller]
7074
7075 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
7076 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
7077 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
7078 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
7079 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
7080 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
7081 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
7082 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
7083
7084 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
7085 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
7086 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
7087 (see [openssl.org #212]).
7088 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7089
7090 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
7091 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
7092 [Steve Henson]
7093
7094 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
7095
7096 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
7097 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
7098 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
7099
7100 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
7101
7102 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
7103 and get fix the header length calculation.
7104 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
7105 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
7106 Steve Henson]
7107
7108 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
7109 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
7110 assertions could call abort()).
7111 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
7112
7113 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
7114
7115 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7116 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7117 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7118 supplied buffer.
7119 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7120
7121 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
7122 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
7123 by the selection routines (PR #130).
7124 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7125
7126 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
7127 [Nils Larsch]
7128
7129 *) New option
7130 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
7131 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
7132 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
7133
7134 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
7135 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
7136 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
7137 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
7138 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
7139 applications.
7140 [Bodo Moeller]
7141
7142 *) Changes in security patch:
7143
7144 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
7145 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
7146 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
7147 F30602-01-2-0537.
7148
7149 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7150 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7151 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7152 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
7153 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7154
7155 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
7156 happen in practice.
7157 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7158
7159 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
7160 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
7161 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
7162
7163 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7164 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
7165 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7166
7167 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
7168 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
7169 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7170
7171 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
7172
7173 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
7174 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
7175 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
7176
7177 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
7178 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
7179
7180 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
7181 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
7182 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
7183 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
7184 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
7185 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
7186 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7187
7188 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
7189 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
7190 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
7191 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
7192 [Bodo Moeller]
7193
7194 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
7195 [Bodo Moeller]
7196
7197 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
7198 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
7199 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
7200 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
7201 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
7202 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7203
7204 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
7205 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
7206 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
7207 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
7208 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
7209 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7210
7211 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
7212 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
7213 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
7214 BN_generate_prime().)
7215
7216 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
7217 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
7218 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
7219 better.
7220 [Bodo Moeller]
7221
7222 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
7223 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
7224 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7225
7226 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
7227 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
7228 when using non-blocking I/O.
7229 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
7230
7231 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
7232 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
7233
7234 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
7235 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
7236 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7237
7238 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
7239 configuration for the versions before that.
7240 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7241
7242 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
7243 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
7244 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
7245 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
7246 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7247
7248 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
7249 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
7250 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
7251 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7252
7253 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
7254 value is 0.
7255 [Richard Levitte]
7256
7257 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
7258 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7259 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7260
7261 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
7262 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
7263
7264 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
7265 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
7266 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
7267 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
7268 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
7269 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
7270 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
7271 session cache.
7272
7273 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
7274 using a local variable.
7275 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7276
7277 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
7278 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
7279 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7280
7281 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
7282 [Richard Levitte]
7283
7284 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
7285 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
7286
7287 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
7288 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
7289 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
7290
7291 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
7292
7293 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
7294 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
7295 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
7296 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
7297 [Bodo Moeller]
7298
7299 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
7300 present.
7301 [Steve Henson]
7302
7303 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
7304 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
7305 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
7306 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
7307 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
7308
7309 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
7310 returns early because it has nothing to do.
7311 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7312
7313 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7314 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
7315 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7316
7317 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7318 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
7319 (Use engine 'keyclient')
7320 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
7321
7322 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
7323 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
7324 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
7325 modules).
7326 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
7327
7328 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7329 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
7330 from 0.9.7.
7331 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
7332
7333 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7334 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
7335 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7336 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
7337
7338 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7339 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
7340 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7341 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
7342
7343 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
7344 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
7345
7346 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
7347 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
7348 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
7349 [Bodo Moeller]
7350
7351 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
7352 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
7353 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
7354 become invalid.
7355 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
7356
7357 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
7358 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
7359 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
7360 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
7361 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
7362 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
7363 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
7364 [Bodo Moeller]
7365
7366 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
7367 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
7368 one of the SSL handshake functions.
7369 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
7370
7371 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
7372 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
7373 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
7374 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
7375 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
7376 the client will at least see that alert.
7377 [Bodo Moeller]
7378
7379 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
7380 correctly.
7381 [Bodo Moeller]
7382
7383 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
7384 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
7385 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7386
7387 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
7388 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
7389 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
7390 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
7391 HelloRequest.
7392
7393 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
7394 before just sending a HelloRequest.
7395 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
7396
7397 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
7398 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
7399 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
7400 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
7401 may leak via logfiles.)
7402
7403 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7404 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7405 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7406 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7407 the legal range.
7408 [Bodo Moeller]
7409
7410 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7411 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7412 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7413
7414 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7415 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7416 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7417 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7418 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7419 [Bodo Moeller]
7420
7421 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7422 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7423
7424 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7425 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7426 followed by modular reduction.
7427 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7428
7429 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7430 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7431 [Bodo Moeller]
7432
7433 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7434 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7435 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7436 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7437 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7438
7439 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7440 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7441
7442 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7443 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7444 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7445
7446 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7447 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7448 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7449 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7450 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7451 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7452 automatically.
7453 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7454
7455 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7456 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7457 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7458 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7459 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7460
7461 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7462 [Andy Polyakov]
7463
7464 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7465 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7466 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7467 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7468 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7469 to allow the necessary settings.
7470 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7471
7472 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7473 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7474 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7475 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7476 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7477
7478 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7479 dh->length and always used
7480
7481 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7482
7483 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7484 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7485 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7486 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7487 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7488 dh->length.
7489
7490 So switch back to
7491
7492 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7493
7494 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7495 otherwise.
7496 [Bodo Moeller]
7497
7498 *) In
7499
7500 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7501 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7502 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7503 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7504
7505 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7506 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7507 always reject numbers >= n.
7508 [Bodo Moeller]
7509
7510 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7511 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7512 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7513 variable) is not atomic.
7514 [Bodo Moeller]
7515
7516 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7517 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7518 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7519 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7520
7521 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7522 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7523
7524 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7525 little-endian MIPS.
7526 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7527
7528 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7529 [Richard Levitte]
7530
7531 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7532
7533 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7534 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7535 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7536 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7537 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7538 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7539 to traverse all of 'state'.
7540
7541 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7542 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7543 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7544
7545 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7546 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7547
7548 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7549 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7550 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7551 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7552 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7553 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7554 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7555 further strengthens the PRNG.
7556 [Bodo Moeller]
7557
7558 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7559 [Andy Polyakov]
7560
7561 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7562 an error message in this case.
7563 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7564
7565 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7566 [Steve Henson]
7567
7568 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7569 positive and less than q.
7570 [Bodo Moeller]
7571
7572 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7573 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7574 that itself.
7575 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7576
7577 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7578 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7579 [Bodo Moeller]
7580
7581 *) Fix OAEP check.
7582 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7583
7584 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7585 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7586 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7587 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7588 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7589 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7590 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7591 paper.)
7592
7593 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7594 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7595 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7596 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7597
7598 Both problems are now fixed.
7599 [Bodo Moeller]
7600
7601 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7602 (previously it was 1024).
7603 [Bodo Moeller]
7604
7605 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7606 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7607 [Steve Henson]
7608
7609 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7610 [Steve Henson]
7611
7612 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7613 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7614 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7615 [Steve Henson]
7616
7617 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7618 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7619 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7620 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7621 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7622 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7623 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7624 environment variables.
7625
7626 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7627 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7628 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7629 [Bodo Moeller]
7630
7631 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7632 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7633 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7634 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7635 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7636 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7637 [Bodo Moeller]
7638
7639 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7640 versions of 'test'.
7641 [Bodo Moeller]
7642
7643 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7644
7645 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7646 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7647
7648 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7649 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7650 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7651 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7652 CygWin.
7653 [Richard Levitte]
7654
7655 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7656 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7657 amount of data available.
7658 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7659 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7660
7661 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7662 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7663 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7664 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7665 [Bodo Moeller]
7666
7667 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7668 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7669 and UnixWare.
7670 [Richard Levitte]
7671
7672 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7673 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7674 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7675 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7676 [Ulf Moeller]
7677
7678 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7679 [Andy Polyakov]
7680
7681 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7682 [Richard Levitte]
7683
7684 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7685 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7686 [Steve Henson]
7687 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7688
7689 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7690 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7691 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7692 (but broken) behaviour.
7693 [Steve Henson]
7694
7695 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7696 it when found.
7697 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7698
7699 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7700 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7701 [Bodo Moeller]
7702
7703 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7704 did not exist.
7705 [Bodo Moeller]
7706
7707 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7708 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7709
7710 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7711 [Richard Levitte]
7712
7713 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7714 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7715 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7716
7717 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7718 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7719 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7720 [Steve Henson]
7721
7722 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7723 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7724 [Ulf Moeller]
7725
7726 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7727 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7728
7729 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7730
7731 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7732
7733 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7734 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7735 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7736 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7737 [Bodo Moeller]
7738
7739 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7740 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7741
7742 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7743 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7744 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7745
7746 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7747 was empty.
7748 [Steve Henson]
7749 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7750
7751 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7752 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7753 but the code is actually correct.
7754 [Steve Henson]
7755
7756 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7757 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7758 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7759 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7760 and leaves the highest bit random.
7761 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7762
7763 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7764 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7765 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7766 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7767 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7768 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7769 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7770 [Bodo Moeller]
7771
7772 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7773 [Ulf Moeller]
7774
7775 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7776 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7777 [Steve Henson]
7778
7779 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7780 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7781 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7782 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7783 headers.
7784 [Richard Levitte]
7785
7786 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7787 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7788 and break the signature.
7789 [Steve Henson]
7790 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7791
7792 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7793 DH ciphersuites.
7794 [Steve Henson]
7795
7796 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7797 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7798 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7799 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7800 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7801 [Bodo Moeller]
7802
7803 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7804 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7805
7806 *) ./config script fixes.
7807 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7808
7809 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7810 [Bodo Moeller]
7811
7812 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7813 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7814 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7815 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7816 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7817
7818 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7819 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7820 [Bodo Moeller]
7821
7822 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7823 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7824 [Steve Henson]
7825
7826 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7827 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7828 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7829 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7830
7831 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7832 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7833
7834 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7835 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7836 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7837 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7838 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7839
7840 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7841 [Bodo Moeller]
7842
7843 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7844 [Ulf Möller]
7845
7846 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7847 [Ulf Möller]
7848
7849 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7850 [Bodo Moeller]
7851
7852 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7853 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7854 [Bodo Moeller]
7855
7856 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7857 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7858 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7859 result of the server certificate verification.)
7860 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7861
7862 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7863 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7864 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7865 [Bodo Moeller]
7866
7867 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7868 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7869 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7870 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7871 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7872 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7873 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7874 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7875 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7876 [Bodo Moeller]
7877
7878 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7879 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7880 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7881 happening the other way round.
7882 [Geoff Thorpe]
7883
7884 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7885 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7886 [Bodo Moeller]
7887
7888 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7889 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7890 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7891 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7892 [Richard Levitte]
7893
7894 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7895 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7896
7897 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7898
7899 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7900 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7901 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7902 that.
7903
7904 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7905
7906 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7907
7908 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7909 static ones.
7910 [Richard Levitte]
7911
7912 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7913
7914 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7915 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7916 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7917 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7918 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7919
7920 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7921 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7922 matter what.
7923 [Richard Levitte]
7924
7925 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7926 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7927
7928 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7929
7930 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7931 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7932 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7933 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7934 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7935 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7936 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7937 by the Finished messages.
7938 [Bodo Moeller]
7939
7940 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7941 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7942
7943 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7944 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7945 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7946 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7947 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7948 appropriately.
7949 [Steve Henson]
7950
7951 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7952 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7953 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7954 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7955 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7956 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7957 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7958 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7959 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7960 together.
7961 [Steve Henson]
7962
7963 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7964 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7965 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7966 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7967
7968 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7969 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7970 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7971 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7972 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7973 the answer.
7974
7975 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7976 been tested well enough.
7977 [Richard Levitte]
7978
7979 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7980 it can return incorrect results.
7981 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7982 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7983 [Bodo Moeller]
7984
7985 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7986 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7987 include zero length content when signing messages.
7988 [Steve Henson]
7989
7990 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7991 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7992 [Bodo Möller]
7993
7994 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7995 [Richard Levitte]
7996
7997 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7998 wrong sign.
7999 [Ulf Möller]
8000
8001 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
8002 packages. The default package contains applications, application
8003 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
8004 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
8005 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
8006 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
8007 [Richard Levitte]
8008
8009 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
8010 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8011
8012 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
8013 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
8014
8015 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
8016 random number < q in the DSA library.
8017 [Ulf Möller]
8018
8019 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
8020 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
8021 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
8022 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
8023 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
8024 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
8025 just makes things more complicated.)
8026 [Bodo Moeller]
8027
8028 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
8029 from EGD.
8030 [Ben Laurie]
8031
8032 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
8033 work better on such systems.
8034 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8035
8036 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
8037 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
8038 keyid to the certificates aux info.
8039 [Steve Henson]
8040
8041 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
8042 if there was more than one signature.
8043 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
8044
8045 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
8046 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
8047 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
8048 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
8049 [Richard Levitte]
8050
8051 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
8052 rather than always using the current time.
8053 [Steve Henson]
8054
8055 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
8056 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
8057 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
8058 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
8059 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
8060 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
8061
8062 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
8063 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
8064
8065 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
8066
8067 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
8068 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
8069 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
8070 the same hash value.
8071
8072 As a result various functions (which were all internal
8073 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
8074 structure. This will break anything that messed round
8075 with X509_STORE internally.
8076
8077 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
8078 exact match, rather than just subject name.
8079
8080 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
8081 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
8082 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
8083 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
8084 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
8085 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
8086 entirely (maybe later...).
8087
8088 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
8089
8090 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
8091 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
8092 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
8093 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
8094 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
8095 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
8096 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
8097 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
8098
8099 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
8100 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
8101
8102 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
8103 to customise the verify behaviour.
8104 [Steve Henson]
8105
8106 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
8107 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
8108 [Steve Henson]
8109
8110 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
8111 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
8112 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
8113 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
8114 request is improperly encoded.
8115 [Steve Henson]
8116
8117 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
8118 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
8119 BIO_write(b, ...).
8120
8121 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
8122 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
8123
8124 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
8125 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
8126 words set to zero.)
8127 [Bodo Moeller]
8128
8129 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
8130 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
8131 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
8132 [Bodo Moeller]
8133
8134 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
8135 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
8136 BIO/fp routines also added.
8137 [Steve Henson]
8138
8139 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
8140 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
8141
8142 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
8143 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
8144 demos/state_machine.
8145 [Ben Laurie]
8146
8147 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
8148 generation and verification.
8149 [Steve Henson]
8150
8151 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
8152 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
8153 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
8154 encode and decode it manually.
8155 [Steve Henson]
8156
8157 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
8158 compile under VC++.
8159 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
8160
8161 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
8162 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
8163 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
8164 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
8165
8166 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
8167 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
8168 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
8169 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
8170 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
8171 [Steve Henson]
8172
8173 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
8174 [Richard Levitte]
8175
8176 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
8177 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
8178 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
8179
8180 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
8181 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
8182 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
8183 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
8184 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
8185 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
8186 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
8187 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
8188
8189 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
8190 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
8191
8192 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
8193
8194 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
8195 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
8196 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
8197
8198 [Richard Levitte]
8199
8200 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
8201 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
8202 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
8203 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
8204 [Richard Levitte]
8205
8206 *) MD4 implemented.
8207 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
8208
8209 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
8210 [Richard Levitte]
8211
8212 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
8213 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
8214 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
8215 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
8216 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
8217 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
8218 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
8219 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
8220 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
8221 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
8222 short or long names are found.
8223 [Steve Henson]
8224
8225 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
8226 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
8227
8228 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
8229 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
8230 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
8231 version rollback attacks was not effective.
8232
8233 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
8234 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
8235 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
8236 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
8237 [Bodo Moeller]
8238
8239 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
8240 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
8241 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
8242 [Richard Levitte]
8243
8244 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
8245 these print out strings and name structures based on various
8246 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
8247 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
8248 to allow the various flags to be set.
8249 [Steve Henson]
8250
8251 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
8252 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
8253 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
8254 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
8255 dates to be checked.
8256 [Steve Henson]
8257
8258 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
8259 negative public key encodings) on by default,
8260 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
8261 [Steve Henson]
8262
8263 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
8264 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
8265 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
8266 [Steve Henson]
8267
8268 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
8269 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
8270 [Bodo Moeller]
8271
8272 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
8273 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
8274 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
8275 are always statically linked for now, but there are
8276 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
8277 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
8278 [Richard Levitte]
8279
8280 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
8281 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
8282 Random Numbers.
8283 [Ulf Möller]
8284
8285 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
8286 DSA key.
8287 [Steve Henson]
8288
8289 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
8290 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
8291 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
8292 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
8293 form signing output easier to verify.
8294 [Steve Henson]
8295
8296 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
8297 [Steve Henson]
8298
8299 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
8300 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
8301 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
8302 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
8303 are needed because all other string types have virtually
8304 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
8305 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
8306 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
8307 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
8308 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
8309 [Steve Henson]
8310
8311 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
8312
8313 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
8314 the syntax given in objects.README.
8315 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
8316 obj_mac.h.
8317 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
8318 obj_mac.h.
8319
8320 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
8321 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
8322 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
8323 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
8324 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
8325 consistent name changes.
8326 [Richard Levitte]
8327
8328 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
8329 [Bodo Moeller]
8330
8331 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
8332 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
8333 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
8334 environment variable, or the default random state file.
8335 [Richard Levitte]
8336
8337 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
8338 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
8339 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
8340 of safestack.h .
8341 [Steve Henson]
8342
8343 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
8344 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
8345 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
8346 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
8347 [Steve Henson]
8348
8349 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
8350 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
8351 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
8352 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
8353 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
8354 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
8355 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
8356 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
8357 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
8358 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
8359 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
8360 [Steve Henson]
8361
8362 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
8363 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
8364 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
8365 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
8366 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
8367 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
8368 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
8369 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
8370 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
8371 algorithm to openssl-dev.
8372 [Steve Henson]
8373
8374 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
8375 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
8376 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
8377 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
8378
8379 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
8380 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
8381 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
8382 omit any duplicate addresses.
8383 [Steve Henson]
8384
8385 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
8386 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
8387 [Bodo Moeller]
8388
8389 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
8390 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
8391 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
8392 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
8393 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
8394 [Bodo Moeller]
8395
8396 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
8397 software:
8398 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
8399 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
8400 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
8401 Free => OPENSSL_free
8402 [Richard Levitte]
8403
8404 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8405 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8406 [Bodo Moeller]
8407
8408 *) CygWin32 support.
8409 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8410
8411 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8412 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8413 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8414 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8415 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8416 approach.
8417 [Geoff Thorpe]
8418
8419 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8420 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8421 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8422 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8423 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8424 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8425 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8426 [Geoff Thorpe]
8427
8428 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8429 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8430 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8431 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8432 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8433 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8434 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8435 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8436 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8437 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8438 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8439 [Bodo Moeller]
8440
8441 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8442 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8443 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8444 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8445 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8446
8447 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8448 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8449 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8450 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8451 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8452
8453 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8454 ciphers.
8455
8456 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8457 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8458 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8459 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8460
8461 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8462
8463 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8464 of macros.
8465
8466 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8467 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8468 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8469 flags.
8470
8471 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8472 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8473 any installed hardware versions can.
8474 [Steve Henson]
8475
8476 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8477 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8478 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8479 number.
8480 [Bodo Moeller]
8481
8482 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8483 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8484 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8485 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8486 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8487
8488 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8489 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8490 [Steve Henson]
8491
8492 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8493 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8494 [Richard Levitte]
8495
8496 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8497 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8498 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8499 features.
8500 [Steve Henson]
8501
8502 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8503 [Ulf Möller]
8504
8505 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8506 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8507 but no ssl client purpose.
8508 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8509
8510 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8511 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8512 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8513 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8514 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8515 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8516 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8517 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8518 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8519 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8520 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8521 [Steve Henson]
8522
8523 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8524 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8525 be obtained from the error queue.
8526 [Bodo Moeller]
8527
8528 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8529 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8530 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8531 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8532 [Bodo Moeller]
8533
8534 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8535 [Ulf Möller]
8536
8537 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8538 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8539 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8540 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8541 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8542 [Geoff Thorpe]
8543
8544 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8545 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8546 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8547 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8548 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8549 [Geoff Thorpe]
8550
8551 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8552 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8553 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8554 may not be NULL.
8555 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8556
8557 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8558 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8559 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8560 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8561 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8562 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8563 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8564 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8565 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8566 or "the configuration storage API"...
8567
8568 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8569
8570 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8571 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8572
8573 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8574
8575 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8576
8577 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8578 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8579 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8580 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8581 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8582 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8583 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8584
8585 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8586 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8587 [Richard Levitte]
8588
8589 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8590 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8591 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8592 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8593 [Bodo Moeller]
8594
8595 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8596 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8597 them in a portable way.
8598 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8599
8600 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8601
8602 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8603
8604 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8605 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8606
8607 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8608 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8609 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8610 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8611
8612 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8613 was larger than the MD block size.
8614 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8615
8616 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8617 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8618 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8619 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8620 components.
8621 [Steve Henson]
8622
8623 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8624 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8625 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8626
8627 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8628 discouraged.
8629 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8630
8631 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8632 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8633 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8634 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8635 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8636 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8637
8638 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8639 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8640
8641 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8642 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8643 [Bodo Moeller]
8644
8645 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8646 [Bodo Moeller]
8647
8648 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8649 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8650 its own key.
8651 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8652 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8653 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8654 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8655 [Bodo Moeller]
8656
8657 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8658 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8659 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8660 does not suppress any output.
8661 [Richard Levitte]
8662
8663 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8664 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8665 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8666 with all the associated security issues.
8667
8668 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8669 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8670 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8671 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8672 use the value in the default purpose.
8673 [Steve Henson]
8674
8675 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8676 and fix a memory leak.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8680 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8681 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8682 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8683 [Bodo Moeller]
8684
8685 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8686 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8687 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8688 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8689 [Bodo Moeller]
8690
8691 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8692 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8693 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8694 [Bodo Moeller]
8695
8696 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8697 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8698 [Bodo Moeller]
8699
8700 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8701 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8702 which was free.
8703 [Steve Henson]
8704
8705 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8706 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8707 [Bodo Moeller]
8708
8709 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8710 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8711 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8712 [Bodo Moeller]
8713
8714 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8715 number generation fails.
8716 [Bodo Moeller]
8717
8718 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8719 [Bodo Moeller]
8720
8721 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8722 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8723
8724 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8725 [Ulf Möller]
8726
8727 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8728 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8729
8730 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8731 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8732
8733 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8734
8735 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8736 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8737 [Steve Henson]
8738
8739 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8740 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8741
8742 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8743 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8744 [Ulf Möller]
8745
8746 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8747 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8748 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8749 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8750 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8751 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8752
8753 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8754 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8755 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8756 for example.
8757 [Steve Henson]
8758
8759 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8760 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8761 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8762 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8763 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8764 counter, some don't.)
8765 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8766 counters or duplicate objects.
8767 [Steve Henson]
8768
8769 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8770 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8771 [Steve Henson]
8772
8773 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8774 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8775 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8776
8777 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8778 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8779 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8780 or -rand.
8781 [Ulf Möller]
8782
8783 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8784 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8785 [Steve Henson]
8786
8787 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8788 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8789 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8790 cipher list.
8791 [Steve Henson]
8792
8793 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8794 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8795 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8796 [Steve Henson]
8797
8798 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8799 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8800 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8801 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8802 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8803 should work without changes.
8804 [Richard Levitte]
8805
8806 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8807 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8808 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8809 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8810 must be defined. E.g.,
8811 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8812 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8813 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8814 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8815
8816 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8817 record layer.
8818 [Bodo Moeller]
8819
8820 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8821 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8822 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8823 [Steve Henson]
8824
8825 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8826 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8827 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8828 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8829 [Steve Henson]
8830
8831 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8832 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8833 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8834 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8835 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8836 is prompted for as usual.
8837 [Steve Henson]
8838
8839 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8840 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8841 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8842 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8843
8844 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8845 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8846 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8847 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8848 [Steve Henson]
8849
8850 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8851 [Andy Polyakov]
8852
8853 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8854 of seed file.
8855 [Steve Henson]
8856
8857 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8858 [Bodo Moeller]
8859
8860 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8861 [Steve Henson]
8862
8863 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8864 bits.
8865 [Ulf Möller]
8866
8867 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8868 [Ulf Möller]
8869
8870 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8871 [Andy Polyakov]
8872
8873 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8874 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8875 [Ulf Möller]
8876
8877 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8878 options to produce them.
8879 [Steve Henson]
8880
8881 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8882 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8883 [Ulf Möller]
8884
8885 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8886 for p == 0.
8887 [Ulf Möller]
8888
8889 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8890 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8891 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8892 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8893 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8894 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8895 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8896 [Steve Henson]
8897
8898 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8899 [Steve Henson]
8900
8901 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8902 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8903 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8904 [Bodo Moeller]
8905
8906 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8907 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8908
8909 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8910 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8911 [Ulf Möller]
8912
8913 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8914 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8915 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8916 has already seen).
8917 [Bodo Moeller]
8918
8919 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8920 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8921
8922 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8923 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8924 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8925 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8926 generation becomes much faster.
8927
8928 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8929 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8930 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8931 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8932 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8933 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8934 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8935 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8936 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8937 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8938 [Bodo Moeller]
8939
8940 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8941 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8942 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8943 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8944 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8945 trial division stage.
8946 [Bodo Moeller]
8947
8948 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8949 as ASN1_TIME.
8950 [Steve Henson]
8951
8952 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8953 [Steve Henson]
8954
8955 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8956 [Ulf Möller]
8957
8958 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8959 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8960 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8961 the comments.
8962 [Ulf Möller]
8963
8964 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8965 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8966 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8967 [Bodo Moeller]
8968
8969 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8970 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8971 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8972 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8973
8974 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8975 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8976 [Steve Henson]
8977
8978 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8979 [Ulf Möller]
8980
8981 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8982 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8983 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8984 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8985 [Ulf Möller]
8986
8987 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8988 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8989 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8990 [Ulf Möller]
8991
8992 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8993 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8994 (instead of parameters) in future.
8995 [Steve Henson]
8996
8997 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8998 when a new cipher list is set.
8999 [Steve Henson]
9000
9001 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
9002 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
9003 wrong.
9004
9005 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
9006 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
9007 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
9008
9009 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
9010 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
9011 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
9012 an error is flagged.
9013
9014 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
9015 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
9016 the readability was also increased :-)
9017 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
9018
9019 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
9020 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
9021 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
9022 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
9023 as the root CA.
9024 [Steve Henson]
9025
9026 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
9027 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
9028 [Steve Henson]
9029
9030 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
9031 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
9032 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
9033 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
9034 instead.
9035
9036 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
9037 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
9038 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
9039 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
9040 because they handle more complex structures.)
9041 [Steve Henson]
9042
9043 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
9044 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
9045 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
9046 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9047
9048 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
9049 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
9050 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
9051 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
9052 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
9053 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
9054 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
9055 [Ulf Möller]
9056
9057 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
9058 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
9059 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
9060 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
9061 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
9062 [Bodo Moeller]
9063
9064 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
9065 [Bodo Moeller]
9066
9067 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
9068 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
9069 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
9070 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
9071 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
9072 to use this.
9073
9074 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
9075 code.
9076 [Steve Henson]
9077
9078 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
9079 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
9080 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
9081 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
9082 [Steve Henson]
9083
9084 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
9085 [Ulf Möller]
9086
9087 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
9088 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
9089 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
9090 international characters are used.
9091
9092 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
9093 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
9094 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
9095 in ASN1 order.
9096 [Steve Henson]
9097
9098 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
9099 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
9100 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
9101 request.
9102
9103 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
9104 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
9105 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
9106 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
9107 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
9108 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
9109
9110 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
9111 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
9112 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
9113 be handled by the string table functions.
9114
9115 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
9116 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
9117 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
9118 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
9119 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
9120 types at all.
9121 [Steve Henson]
9122
9123 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
9124 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
9125 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
9126 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
9127 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
9128
9129 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
9130 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
9131 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
9132 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
9133 [Bodo Moeller]
9134
9135 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
9136 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
9137 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
9138 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
9139 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
9140 SHA1.
9141 [Andy Polyakov]
9142
9143 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
9144 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
9145 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
9146 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
9147 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
9148 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
9149 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
9150 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
9151
9152 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
9153 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
9154 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
9155 [Steve Henson]
9156
9157 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
9158 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
9159 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
9160 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
9161 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
9162 support to pkcs8 application.
9163 [Steve Henson]
9164
9165 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
9166 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
9167 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
9168 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
9169 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
9170 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
9171 [Bodo Moeller]
9172
9173 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
9174 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
9175 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
9176 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
9177 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
9178 consistency.
9179 [Bodo Moeller]
9180
9181 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
9182 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
9183 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
9184 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
9185 example.
9186 [Steve Henson]
9187
9188 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
9189 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
9190 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
9191 and any application specific purposes.
9192
9193 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
9194 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
9195 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
9196 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
9197 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
9198 if the certificate is self signed.
9199 [Steve Henson]
9200
9201 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
9202 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
9203 [Steve Henson]
9204
9205 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
9206 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
9207 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
9208 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
9209 [Steve Henson]
9210
9211 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
9212 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
9213 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
9214 Update documentation.
9215 [Steve Henson]
9216
9217 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
9218 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
9219 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
9220 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
9221 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
9222 [Steve Henson]
9223
9224 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
9225 for details.
9226 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
9227
9228 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
9229 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
9230 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
9231 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
9232 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
9233 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
9234 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
9235 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
9236 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
9237 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
9238
9239 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
9240
9241 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9242 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9243 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
9244 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
9245 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
9246
9247 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
9248 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
9249 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
9250 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
9251 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
9252 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
9253 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
9254 request additional information:
9255 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
9256 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
9257
9258 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
9259 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
9260 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
9261 options.
9262
9263 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
9264 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
9265
9266 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
9267 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
9268 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
9269
9270 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
9271 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
9272
9273 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
9274 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
9275 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
9276 algorithm.
9277 [Steve Henson]
9278
9279 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
9280 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
9281 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
9282
9283 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
9284 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
9285 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
9286 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
9287 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
9288 included in OpenSSL.
9289 [Steve Henson]
9290
9291 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
9292 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
9293 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
9294 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
9295 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
9296 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
9297 [Bodo Moeller]
9298
9299 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
9300 PKCS12 structure.
9301 [Steve Henson]
9302
9303 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
9304 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
9305 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
9306 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
9307 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
9308 structure.
9309 [Steve Henson]
9310
9311 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
9312 need initialising.
9313 [Steve Henson]
9314
9315 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
9316 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
9317 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
9318 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
9319 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
9320 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
9321 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
9322 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
9323 be maintained manually.
9324
9325 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
9326 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
9327 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
9328 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
9329 work because people forget to call this function]
9330 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
9331 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
9332 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
9333 [Steve Henson]
9334
9335 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
9336 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
9337 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
9338 should be discouraged from doing it.
9339 [Ben Laurie]
9340
9341 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
9342 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
9343 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
9344 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
9345 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
9346 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
9347 [Steve Henson]
9348
9349 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
9350 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
9351 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
9352
9353 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
9354 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
9355 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
9356
9357 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
9358 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
9359 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
9360 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
9361 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
9362 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
9363
9364 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
9365 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
9366 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
9367
9368 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
9369 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
9370 and vice versa.
9371
9372 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
9373 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
9374 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
9375 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
9376 [Steve Henson]
9377
9378 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
9379 [Steve Henson]
9380
9381 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
9382 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
9383 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
9384 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
9385 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
9386 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
9387 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
9388 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
9389 keys so we should be OK.
9390
9391 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
9392 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
9393 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
9394 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
9395 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
9396 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
9397 stay in the name of compatibility.
9398
9399 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
9400 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
9401 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
9402
9403 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9404 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9405 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9406 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9407 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9408 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9409 supplied key).
9410 [Steve Henson]
9411
9412 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9413 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9414 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9415 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9416 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9417 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9418 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9419 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9420 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9421 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9422 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9423 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9424 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9425 [Steve Henson]
9426
9427 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9428 [Steve Henson]
9429
9430 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9431 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9432 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9433 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9434 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9435 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9436 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9437 openssl verify ss.pem
9438 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9439 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9440 is OK.
9441 [Steve Henson]
9442
9443 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9444 (and add it to external session representation).
9445 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9446 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9447 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9448 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9449 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9450 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9451 security holes.
9452 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9453
9454 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9455 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9456 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9457 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9458
9459 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9460 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9461 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9462 [Steve Henson]
9463
9464 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9465 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9466 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9467 code.
9468 [Steve Henson]
9469
9470 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9471 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9472 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9473
9474 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9475 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9476 certificate auxiliary information.
9477 [Steve Henson]
9478
9479 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9480 the 'enc' command.
9481 [Steve Henson]
9482
9483 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9484 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9485 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9486 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9487 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9488 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9489 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9490 [Richard Levitte]
9491
9492 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9493 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9494 [Steve Henson]
9495
9496 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9497 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9498 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9499 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9500 [Steve Henson]
9501
9502 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9503 [Steve Henson]
9504
9505 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9506 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9507 [Steve Henson]
9508
9509 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9510 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9511 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9512 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9513 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9514 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9515 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9516 using the new 'x509' options.
9517
9518 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9519 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9520 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9521 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9522 for all purposes.
9523 [Steve Henson]
9524
9525 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9526 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9527 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9528 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9529 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9530 [Mark Cox]
9531
9532 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9533 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9534 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9535 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9536 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9537 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9538 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9539 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9540 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9541 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9542 [Steve Henson]
9543
9544 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9545 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9546 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9547 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9548 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9549 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9550 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9551 [Steve Henson]
9552
9553 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9554 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9555 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9556 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9557 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9558 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9559 openssl.cnf for more info.
9560 [Steve Henson]
9561
9562 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9563 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9564 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9565 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9566 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9567 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9568 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9569 md should be large enough anyway.
9570 [Bodo Moeller]
9571
9572 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9573 for handling the random seed file.
9574
9575 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9576 ca,
9577 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9578 s_client,
9579 s_server,
9580 x509 (when signing).
9581 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9582 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9583 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9584
9585 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9586 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9587 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9588 that support '-rand'.
9589 [Bodo Moeller]
9590
9591 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9592 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9593 [Bodo Moeller]
9594
9595 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9596 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9597 [Bill Perry]
9598
9599 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9600 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9601 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9602 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9603 is suitable.
9604 [Steve Henson]
9605
9606 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9607 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9608 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9609 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9610 [Steve Henson]
9611
9612 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9613 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9614 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9615 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9616 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9617 print out all the purposes.
9618 [Steve Henson]
9619
9620 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9621 functions.
9622 [Steve Henson]
9623
9624 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9625 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9626 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9627 single function call.
9628 [Steve Henson]
9629
9630 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9631 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9632 [Andy Polyakov]
9633
9634 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9635 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9636 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9637 [Steve Henson]
9638
9639 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9640 when producing the local key id.
9641 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9642
9643 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9644 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9645 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9646 "server.pem".
9647 [Steve Henson]
9648
9649 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9650 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9651 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9652 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9653 [Steve Henson]
9654
9655 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9656 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9657 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9658 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9659
9660 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9661 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9662 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9663 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9664
9665 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9666 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9667 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9668 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9669 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9670 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9671 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9672 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9673 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9674 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9675 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9676 trivial: move one line.
9677 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9678
9679 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9680 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9681 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9682 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9683 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9684 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9685 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9686 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9687 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9688 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9689 with an event loop for example.
9690 [Steve Henson]
9691
9692 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9693 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9694 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9695 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9696 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9697 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9698 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9699 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9700 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9701 [Steve Henson]
9702
9703 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9704 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9705 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9706 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9707 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9708 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9709 [Steve Henson]
9710
9711 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9712 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9713 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9714 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9715
9716 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9717 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9718 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9719 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9720 key generation.
9721 [Steve Henson]
9722
9723 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9724 (still largely untested)
9725 [Bodo Moeller]
9726
9727 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9728 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9729 [Steve Henson]
9730
9731 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9732 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9733 [Steve Henson]
9734
9735 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9736 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9737 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9738 [Bodo Moeller]
9739
9740 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9741 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9742 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9743 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9744 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9745 [Steve Henson]
9746
9747 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9748 [Andy Polyakov]
9749
9750 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9751 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9752 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9753 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9754 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9755 in ca.
9756 [Steve Henson]
9757
9758 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9759 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9760 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9761 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9762 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9763 [Steve Henson]
9764
9765 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9766 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9767 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9768 are otherwise ignored at present.
9769 [Steve Henson]
9770
9771 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9772 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9773 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9774 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9775 copied until the next read.
9776 [Steve Henson]
9777
9778 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9779 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9780 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9781 [Steve Henson]
9782
9783 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9784 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9785 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9786 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9787 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9788 associated functions.
9789 [Steve Henson]
9790
9791 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9792 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9793 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9794 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9795 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9796 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9797 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9798 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9799 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9800 memory BIOs.
9801 [Steve Henson]
9802
9803 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9804 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9805 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9806 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9807 [Bodo Moeller]
9808
9809 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9810 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9811 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9812 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9813 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9814 functionality.
9815 [Steve Henson]
9816
9817 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9818 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9819 under Win32.
9820 [Steve Henson]
9821
9822 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9823 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9824 extensions to be obtained and added.
9825 [Steve Henson]
9826
9827 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9828 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9829 [Bodo Moeller]
9830
9831 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9832
9833 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9834 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9835
9836 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9837 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9838
9839 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9840 program.
9841 [Steve Henson]
9842
9843 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9844 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9845 DH parameters contain its length).
9846
9847 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9848 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9849 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9850 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9851 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9852 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9853 utter importance to use
9854 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9855 or
9856 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9857 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9858 attacks may become possible!
9859 [Bodo Moeller]
9860
9861 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9862 [Bodo Moeller]
9863
9864 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9865 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9866 [Steve Henson]
9867
9868 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9869 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9870 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9871 or long name.
9872 [Steve Henson]
9873
9874 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9875 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9876 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9877 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9878 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9879 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9880 private key operations.
9881 [Steve Henson]
9882
9883 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9884 [Andy Polyakov]
9885
9886 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9887 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9888 to
9889 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9890 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9891 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9892 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9893 the password callback is called.
9894 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9895
9896 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9897
9898 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9899 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9900 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9901 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9902 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9903 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9904 this will work.
9905
9906 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9907 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9908 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9909 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9910 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9911 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9912 [Bodo Moeller]
9913
9914 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9915 [Andy Polyakov]
9916
9917 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9918 delete an unused file.
9919 [Ulf Möller]
9920
9921 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9922 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9923 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9924 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9925 [Steve Henson]
9926
9927 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9928 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9929 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9930 of an error.
9931 [Bodo Moeller]
9932
9933 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9934 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9935 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9936
9937 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9938 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9939 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9940 comparison" warnings.
9941 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9942 [Steve Henson]
9943
9944 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9945 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9946 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9947 [Steve Henson]
9948
9949 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9950 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9951
9952 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9953 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9954
9955 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9956 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9957 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9958
9959 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9960 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9961 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9962 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9963 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9964 this bug.
9965 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9966
9967 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9968 The interface is as follows:
9969 Applications can use
9970 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9971 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9972 "off" is now the default.
9973 The library internally uses
9974 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9975 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9976 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9977
9978 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9979 even the default) are now avoided.
9980
9981 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9982 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9983 than just having a counter.
9984
9985 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9986
9987 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9988 extensions.
9989 [Bodo Moeller]
9990
9991 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9992 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9993 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9994 Initial "mode" flags are:
9995
9996 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9997 a single record has been written.
9998 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9999 retries use the same buffer location.
10000 (But all of the contents must be
10001 copied!)
10002 [Bodo Moeller]
10003
10004 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
10005 worked.
10006
10007 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
10008 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
10009
10010 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
10011 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
10012 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
10013 [Steve Henson]
10014
10015 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
10016 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
10017 test programs.
10018 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
10019
10020 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
10021 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
10022 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
10023 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
10024 point to the end.
10025 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
10026 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
10027
10028 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
10029 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
10030 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
10031 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
10032 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
10033 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
10034 [Steve Henson]
10035
10036 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
10037 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
10038 necessary function names.
10039 [Steve Henson]
10040
10041 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
10042 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
10043 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
10044 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
10045 [Bodo Moeller]
10046
10047 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
10048 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
10049 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
10050 [Steve Henson]
10051
10052 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
10053 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
10054 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
10055 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
10056 such programs?)
10057 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
10058 need locks.
10059 [Bodo Moeller]
10060
10061 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
10062 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
10063 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
10064 [Bodo Moeller]
10065
10066 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
10067 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
10068 appropriate.
10069 [Bodo Moeller]
10070
10071 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
10072 for the encoded length.
10073 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
10074
10075 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
10076 [Steve Henson]
10077
10078 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
10079 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
10080 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
10081 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
10082 [Steve Henson]
10083
10084 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
10085 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
10086 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10087
10088 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
10089 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
10090 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
10091 unusual formatting.
10092 [Steve Henson]
10093
10094 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
10095 to use the new extension code.
10096 [Steve Henson]
10097
10098 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
10099 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
10100 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
10101 constant.
10102 [Steve Henson]
10103
10104 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
10105 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
10106 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
10107 [Bodo Moeller]
10108
10109 #if 0
10110 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
10111 [Ben Laurie]
10112 #else
10113 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
10114 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
10115 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
10116 #endif
10117
10118 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
10119 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
10120 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
10121 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
10122 [Ben Laurie]
10123
10124 *) DES library cleanups.
10125 [Ulf Möller]
10126
10127 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
10128 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
10129 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
10130 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
10131 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
10132 of v2.0.
10133 [Steve Henson]
10134
10135 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
10136 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
10137 [Bodo Moeller]
10138
10139 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
10140 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
10141 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
10142 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
10143 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
10144 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
10145 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
10146 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
10147 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
10148 [Steve Henson]
10149
10150 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
10151 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
10152 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
10153 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
10154 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
10155 value doesn't matter.
10156 [Steve Henson]
10157
10158 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
10159 support mutable.
10160 [Ben Laurie]
10161
10162 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
10163 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
10164 "linux-sparc" configuration.
10165 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
10166
10167 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
10168 [Ulf Möller]
10169
10170 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
10171 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
10172 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10173
10174 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
10175 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10176
10177 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
10178 [Ben Laurie]
10179
10180 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
10181 [Ben Laurie]
10182
10183 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
10184 [Ben Laurie]
10185
10186 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
10187 [Bodo Moeller]
10188
10189
10190 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
10191
10192 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
10193
10194 *) Updated some demos.
10195 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
10196
10197 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
10198 [Wu Zhigang]
10199
10200 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
10201 [Steve Henson]
10202
10203 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
10204 [Steve Henson]
10205
10206 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
10207 instead of using a fixed path.
10208 [Bodo Moeller]
10209
10210 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
10211 [Andy Polyakov]
10212
10213 *) Improvements for VMS support.
10214 [Richard Levitte]
10215
10216
10217 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
10218
10219 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
10220 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
10221 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10222
10223 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
10224 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
10225 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
10226 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
10227 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
10228 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
10229 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
10230 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
10231 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
10232 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
10233 [Steve Henson]
10234
10235 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
10236 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
10237 [Steve Henson]
10238
10239 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
10240 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
10241 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
10242 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
10243 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
10244
10245 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
10246 [Bodo Moeller]
10247
10248 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
10249 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
10250 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
10251 [Steve Henson]
10252
10253 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
10254 [Ben Laurie]
10255
10256 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
10257 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
10258 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
10259 key elements as negative integers.
10260 [Steve Henson]
10261
10262 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
10263 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10264
10265 *) VMS support.
10266 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
10267
10268 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
10269 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
10270 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
10271 [Steve Henson]
10272
10273 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
10274 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
10275 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
10276 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
10277 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
10278 [Bodo Moeller]
10279
10280 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
10281 [Ulf Möller]
10282
10283 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
10284 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
10285 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
10286 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10287
10288 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
10289 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
10290 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
10291
10292 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
10293 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
10294 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
10295 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
10296 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
10297 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
10298 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
10299 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
10300 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
10301
10302 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
10303 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
10304 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
10305 does not influence s as it used to.
10306
10307 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
10308 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
10309 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
10310 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
10311 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
10312 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
10313 [Bodo Moeller]
10314
10315 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
10316 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
10317 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
10318 key type.
10319 [Steve Henson]
10320
10321 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
10322 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
10323 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
10324 and 'x509').
10325 [Steve Henson]
10326
10327 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
10328 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
10329 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
10330 extension option.
10331 [Steve Henson]
10332
10333 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
10334 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
10335 [Ben Laurie]
10336
10337 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
10338 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10339
10340 *) Support Mingw32.
10341 [Ulf Möller]
10342
10343 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
10344 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10345
10346 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
10347 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10348
10349 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
10350 [Ulf Möller]
10351
10352 *) Update HPUX configuration.
10353 [Anonymous]
10354
10355 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
10356 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10357
10358 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
10359 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
10360 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
10361 DER-encoded.)
10362 [Bodo Moeller]
10363
10364 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
10365 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
10366 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
10367 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
10368 now it really counts the depth.
10369 [Bodo Moeller]
10370
10371 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
10372 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
10373 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
10374 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
10375 didn't match the private key).
10376
10377 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
10378 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
10379 connection using the SSL_CTX).
10380 [Bodo Moeller]
10381
10382 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
10383 [Ulf Möller]
10384
10385 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
10386 David Harris.
10387 [Bodo Moeller]
10388
10389 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
10390 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
10391 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
10392 [Bodo Moeller]
10393
10394 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
10395 [Bodo Moeller]
10396
10397 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
10398 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
10399 such as /usr/local/bin.
10400 [Bodo Moeller]
10401
10402 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10403 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10404
10405 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10406 [Ulf Möller]
10407
10408 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10409 extension adding in x509 utility.
10410 [Steve Henson]
10411
10412 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10413 [Ulf Möller]
10414
10415 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10416 prototypes.
10417 [Steve Henson]
10418
10419 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10420 [Ulf Möller]
10421
10422 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10423 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10424 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10425 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10426 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10427 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10428 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10429 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10430 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10431 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10435 [Bodo Moeller]
10436
10437 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10438 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10439 [Bodo Moeller]
10440
10441 *) Fix some race conditions.
10442 [Bodo Moeller]
10443
10444 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10445 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10446 [Steve Henson]
10447
10448 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10449 [Ulf Möller]
10450
10451 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10452 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10453 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10454 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10455
10456 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10457 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10458
10459 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10460 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10461 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10462
10463 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10464 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10465
10466 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10467 [Ulf Möller]
10468
10469 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10470 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10471
10472 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10473 [Ulf Möller]
10474
10475 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10476 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10477
10478 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10479 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10480 [Steve Henson]
10481
10482 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10483 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10484 [Ben Laurie]
10485
10486 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10487 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10488 [Steve Henson]
10489
10490 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10491 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10492 [Steve Henson]
10493
10494 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10495 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10496 [Steve Henson]
10497
10498 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10499 support typesafe stack.
10500 [Steve Henson]
10501
10502 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10503 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10504
10505 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10506 old X509V3 handling code.
10507 [Steve Henson]
10508
10509 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10510 [Ulf Möller]
10511
10512 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10513 [Bodo Moeller]
10514
10515 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10516 [Ben Laurie]
10517
10518 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10519 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10520
10521 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10522 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10523 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10524 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10525 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10526 [Ben Laurie]
10527
10528 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10529 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10530 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10531 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10532 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10533
10534 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10535 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10536 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10537 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10538
10539 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10540 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10541 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10542 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10543
10544 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10545 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10546 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10547 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10548 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10549 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10550 [Bodo Moeller]
10551
10552 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10553 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10554 [Bodo Moeller]
10555
10556 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10557 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10558 [Ulf Möller]
10559
10560 *) Tweaks to Configure
10561 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10562
10563 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10564 yet...
10565 [Steve Henson]
10566
10567 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10568 [Ulf Möller]
10569
10570 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10571 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10572 [Ulf Möller]
10573
10574 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10575 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10576 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10577 [Bodo Moeller]
10578
10579 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10580 [Bodo Moeller]
10581
10582 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10583 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10584 [Steve Henson]
10585
10586 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10587 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10588 to library startup routines.
10589 [Steve Henson]
10590
10591 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10592 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10593 codes along the way.
10594 [Steve Henson]
10595
10596 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10597 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10598 objects to objects.h
10599 [Steve Henson]
10600
10601 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10602 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10603 [Steve Henson]
10604
10605 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10606 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10607
10608 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10609 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10610 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10611
10612 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10613 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10614 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10615
10616 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10617 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10618 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10619
10620
10621 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10622
10623 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10624 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10625 [Ben Laurie]
10626
10627 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10628 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10629 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10630 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10631 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10632
10633 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10634 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10635 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10636 document.
10637 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10638
10639 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10640 Malloc, Free.
10641 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10642
10643 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10644 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10645
10646 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10647 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10648 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10649 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10650
10651 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10652 [Ben Laurie]
10653
10654 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10655 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10656 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10657 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10658 [Steve Henson]
10659
10660 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10661 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10662 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10663 [Steve Henson]
10664
10665 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10666 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10667 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10668 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10669 installed as `perl').
10670 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10671
10672 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10673 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10674
10675 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10676 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10677 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10678 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10679 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10680 [Steve Henson]
10681
10682 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10683 [Ben Laurie]
10684
10685 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10686 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10687 is horrible: I feel ill....
10688 [Steve Henson]
10689
10690 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10691 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10692 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10693 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10694 [Steve Henson]
10695
10696 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10697 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10698
10699 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10700 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10701 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10702 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10703
10704 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10705 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10706 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10707 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10708 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10709 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10710 openssl_bio.xs.
10711 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10712
10713 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10714 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10715
10716 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10717 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10718
10719 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10720 [Ben Laurie]
10721
10722 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10723 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10724 in CRLs.
10725 [Steve Henson]
10726
10727 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10728 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10729 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10730 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10731 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10732 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10733 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10734 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10735 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10736 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10737 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10738
10739 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10740 [Ben Laurie]
10741
10742 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10743 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10744 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10745 for linking it into DSOs.
10746 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10747
10748 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10749 Fixed.
10750 [Ben Laurie]
10751
10752 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10753 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10754 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10755 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10756 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10757 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10758
10759 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10760 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10761 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10762 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10763 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10764 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10765 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10766
10767 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10768 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10769 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10770 encryption.
10771 [Ben Laurie]
10772
10773 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10774 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10775 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10776 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10777 [Steve Henson]
10778
10779 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10780 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10781 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10782 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10783 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10784 field as blank.
10785 [Steve Henson]
10786
10787 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10788 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10789 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10790 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10791 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10792
10793 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10794 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10795 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10796
10797 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10798 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10799
10800 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10801 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10802 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10803 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10804 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10805 [Steve Henson]
10806
10807 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10808 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10809 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10810 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10811 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10812 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10813 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10814 [Ben Laurie]
10815
10816 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10817 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10818 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10819 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10820 [Ben Laurie]
10821
10822 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10823 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10824
10825 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10826 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10827 [Steve Henson]
10828
10829 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10830 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10831 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10832 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10833 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10834 (e.g. s_server).
10835 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10836 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10837 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10838 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10839 no way to reconfigure them.
10840 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10841 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10842 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10843 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10844 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10845 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10846
10847 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10848 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10849 recognized by the users.
10850 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10851
10852 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10853 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10854 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10855 already masked variable.
10856 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10857
10858 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10859 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10860
10861 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10862 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10863 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10864 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10865
10866 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10867 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10868 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10869
10870 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10871 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10872 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10873 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10874 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10875 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10876 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10877 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10878 now, too.
10879 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10880
10881 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10882 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10883 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10884
10885 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10886 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10887 config file.
10888 [Steve Henson]
10889
10890 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10891 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10892
10893 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10894 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10895 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10896 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10897 [Ben Laurie]
10898
10899 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10900 [Steve Henson]
10901
10902 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10903 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10904
10905 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10906 [Ben Laurie]
10907
10908 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10909 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10910 [Steve Henson]
10911
10912 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10913 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10914 [Steve Henson]
10915
10916 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10917 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10918 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10919 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10920 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10921 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10922 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10923 Ben Laurie]
10924
10925 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10926 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10927
10928 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10929 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10930 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10931 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10932 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10933
10934 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10935 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10936 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10937 [Steve Henson]
10938
10939 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10940 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10941 an example.
10942 [Steve Henson]
10943
10944 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10945 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10946 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10947
10948 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10949 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10950 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10951 build instructions.
10952 [Steve Henson]
10953
10954 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10955 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10956 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10957 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10958 [Steve Henson]
10959
10960 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10961 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10962 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10963 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10964 [Ben Laurie]
10965
10966 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10967 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10968 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10969 so it wasn't spotted.
10970 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10971
10972 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10973 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10974 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10975 vectors if you have them.
10976 [Ben Laurie]
10977
10978 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10979 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10980 [Ben Laurie]
10981
10982 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10983 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10984 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10985 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10986 If you do a:
10987 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10988 it will update them.
10989 [Steve Henson]
10990
10991 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10992 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10993 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10994 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10995 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10996 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10997 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10998 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10999
11000 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
11001 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
11002 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
11003 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
11004 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
11005 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
11006 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
11007 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
11008 the crypto/md/ stuff).
11009 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11010
11011 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
11012 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
11013 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
11014 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
11015 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
11016 [Steve Henson]
11017
11018 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
11019 INTEGER code.
11020 [Steve Henson]
11021
11022 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
11023 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11024
11025 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
11026 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
11027
11028 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
11029 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
11030 [Ben Laurie]
11031
11032 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
11033 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
11034
11035 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
11036 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
11037
11038 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
11039 [Steve Henson]
11040
11041 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
11042 few typos.
11043 [Steve Henson]
11044
11045 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
11046 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
11047 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
11048 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
11049
11050 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11051 [Steve Henson]
11052
11053 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
11054 [Steve Henson]
11055
11056 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
11057 [Steve Henson]
11058
11059 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
11060 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
11061 [Steve Henson]
11062
11063 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
11064 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
11065 CA extensions.
11066 [Steve Henson]
11067
11068 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
11069 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
11070 [Steve Henson]
11071
11072 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
11073 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
11074 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
11075 [Steve Henson]
11076
11077 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
11078 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
11079 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
11080 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
11081 properly to be processed.
11082 [Steve Henson]
11083
11084 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
11085 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
11086 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
11087 [Ben Laurie]
11088
11089 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
11090 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
11091
11092 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
11093 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
11094 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
11095 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
11096 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
11097 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
11098 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
11099 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
11100 or delete all the .err files.
11101 [Steve Henson]
11102
11103 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
11104 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
11105 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
11106 to regenerate it if needed.
11107 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
11108 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
11109
11110 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
11111 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11112
11113 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
11114 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
11115 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
11116 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
11117 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
11118 [Steve Henson]
11119
11120 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
11121 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11122
11123 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
11124 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11125
11126 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
11127 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
11128 error, but didn't set one).
11129 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11130
11131 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
11132 [Ben Laurie]
11133
11134 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
11135 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
11136 [Steve Henson]
11137
11138 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
11139 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
11140
11141 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
11142 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
11143 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
11144 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
11145 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
11146 OID is not part of the table.
11147 [Steve Henson]
11148
11149 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
11150 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
11151 [Ben Laurie]
11152
11153 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
11154 [Ben Laurie]
11155
11156 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
11157 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
11158 was "1234").
11159 [Steve Henson]
11160
11161 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
11162 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
11163
11164 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
11165 NULL pointers.
11166 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11167
11168 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
11169 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11170
11171 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
11172 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11173
11174 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
11175 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11176
11177 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
11178 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
11179 [Ben Laurie]
11180
11181 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
11182 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
11183 [Steve Henson]
11184
11185 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
11186 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11187
11188 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
11189 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11190
11191 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
11192 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11193
11194 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
11195 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11196
11197 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
11198 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
11199 unused in the certificate verification process.
11200 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11201
11202 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
11203 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
11204 [Steve Henson]
11205
11206 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
11207 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
11208 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
11209
11210 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
11211 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
11212 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
11213 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
11214 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
11215
11216 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
11217 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
11218 [Steve Henson]
11219
11220 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
11221 [Steve Henson]
11222
11223 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
11224 [Paul Sutton]
11225
11226 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
11227 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
11228
11229 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
11230 [Ben Laurie]
11231
11232 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
11233 [Ben Laurie]
11234
11235 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
11236 [Ben Laurie]
11237
11238 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
11239 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
11240 other error libraries.
11241 [Steve Henson]
11242
11243 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
11244 [Steve Henson]
11245
11246 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
11247 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
11248 be read in.
11249 [Steve Henson]
11250
11251 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
11252 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
11253 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
11254 the new set of documenation files.
11255 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11256
11257 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
11258 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
11259 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
11260 number of arguments.
11261 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
11262
11263 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
11264 [Ben Laurie]
11265
11266 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
11267 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
11268 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11269
11270 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
11271 [Ben Laurie]
11272
11273 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
11274 nextstep
11275 ncr-scde
11276 unixware-2.0
11277 unixware-2.0-pentium
11278 sco5-cc.
11279 [Ben Laurie]
11280
11281 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
11282 before they are needed.
11283 [Ben Laurie]
11284
11285 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
11286 [Ben Laurie]
11287
11288
11289 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
11290
11291 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
11292 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
11293 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11294
11295 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
11296 [Paul Sutton]
11297
11298 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
11299 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
11300 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11301
11302 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
11303 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
11304 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
11305
11306 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
11307 when "ssleay" is still not found.
11308 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11309
11310 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
11311 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
11312
11313 *) Updated the README file.
11314 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11315
11316 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
11317 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
11318 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11319
11320 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
11321 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
11322 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11323
11324 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
11325 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
11326 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
11327 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
11328 o removed obsolete TODO file
11329 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
11330 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11331
11332 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
11333 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
11334 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
11335 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
11336 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
11337 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
11338 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11339
11340 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
11341 [Mark J. Cox]
11342
11343 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
11344 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
11345 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
11346 summer 1998.
11347 [The OpenSSL Project]
11348
11349
11350 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
11351
11352 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
11353 [Eric A. Young]
11354
11355 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
11356 [Eric A. Young]
11357
11358 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
11359 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
11360 [Eric A. Young]
11361
11362 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
11363 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
11364 available).
11365 [Eric A. Young]
11366
11367 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
11368 binary structures
11369 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
11370
11371 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
11372 [Eric A. Young]
11373
11374 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
11375 [Eric A. Young]
11376
11377 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
11378 [Eric A. Young]
11379
11380 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
11381 [Eric A. Young]
11382
11383 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
11384 [Eric A. Young]
11385
11386 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
11387 [Eric A. Young]
11388
11389 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
11390 [Eric A. Young]
11391
11392 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
11393 [Eric A. Young]
11394
11395 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
11396 [Eric A. Young]
11397
11398 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
11399 [Eric A. Young]
11400
11401 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
11402 [Eric A. Young]
11403
11404 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
11405 [Eric A. Young]
11406
11407 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
11408 [Eric A. Young]
11409
11410 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
11411 [Eric A. Young]
11412
11413 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
11414 [Eric A. Young]
11415
11416 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
11417 [Eric A. Young]
11418
11419 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
11420 [Eric A. Young]
11421
11422 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
11423 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
11424 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
11425 [Eric A. Young]
11426
11427 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
11428 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
11429 [Eric A. Young]
11430
11431 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
11432 [Eric A. Young]
11433
11434 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
11435 [Eric A. Young]
11436
11437 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
11438 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
11439 [Eric A. Young]
11440
11441 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
11442 [Eric A. Young]
11443
11444 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
11445 [Eric A. Young]
11446
11447 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
11448 bytes sent in the client random.
11449 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
11450
