4
5 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Experimental encrypt-then-mac support.
8
9 Experimental support for encrypt then mac from
10 draft-gutmann-tls-encrypt-then-mac-02.txt
11
12 To enable it set the appropriate extension number (0x42 for the test
13 server) using e.g. -DTLSEXT_TYPE_encrypt_then_mac=0x42
14
15 For non-compliant peers (i.e. just about everything) this should have no
16 effect.
17
18 WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
19
20 [Steve Henson]
21
22 *) Add callbacks supporting generation and retrieval of supplemental
23 data entries.
24 [Scott Deboy <sdeboy@apache.org>, Trevor Perrin and Ben Laurie]
25
26 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
27 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
28 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
29 algorithms and include tests cases.
30 [Steve Henson]
31
32 *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
33 enveloped data.
34 [Steve Henson]
35
36 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
37 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
38 [Steve Henson]
39
40 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
41 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
42 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
43 [Steve Henson]
44
45 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
46 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
47
48 *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
49 ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
50 [Steve Henson]
51
52 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
53 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
54 failures.
55 [Steve Henson]
56
57 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
58 sign or verify all in one operation.
59 [Steve Henson]
60
61 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
62 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
63 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
64 [Steve Henson]
65
66 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
67 [Steve Henson]
68
69 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
70 [Steve Henson]
71
72 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
73 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
74 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
75 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
76 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
77 [Steve Henson]
78
79 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
80 based on NID.
81 [Steve Henson]
82
83 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
84 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
85 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
86 [Steve Henson]
87
88 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
89 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
90 [Steve Henson]
91
92 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
93 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
94
95 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
96 POST to handle HMAC cases.
97 [Steve Henson]
98
99 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
100 to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
101 [Steve Henson]
102
103 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
104 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
105 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
106 [Steve Henson]
107
108 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
109 there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
110 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
111 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
112 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
113 requested amount of entropy.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
117 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
120 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
121 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
122 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
123 support.
124 [Steve Henson]
125
126 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
127 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
128 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
129 [Steve Henson]
130
131 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
132 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
133 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
134 will never use XTS mode.
135 [Steve Henson]
136
137 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
138 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
139 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
140 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
141 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
142 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
146 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
147 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
148 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
149 [Steve Henson]
150
151 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
152 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
153 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
156 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
157 [Steve Henson]
158
159 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
160 [Steve Henson]
161
162 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
163 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
164 [Steve Henson]
165
166 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
167 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
168 [Steve Henson]
169
170 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
171 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
175 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
176 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
177 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
178 and rename any affected symbols.
179 [Steve Henson]
180
181 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
182 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
183 [Steve Henson]
184
185 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
186 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
187 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
188 [Steve Henson]
189
190 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
191 [Steve Henson]
192
193 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
194 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
195 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
196 [Steve Henson]
197
198 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
199 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
200 [Steve Henson]
201
202 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
203 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
204 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
205 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
206 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
207 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
208 set before the key.
209 [Steve Henson]
210
211 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
212 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
213 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
214 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
215 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
216 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
217 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
218 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
219 [Steve Henson]
220
221 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
222 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
223 [Steve Henson]
224
225 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
226
227 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
228 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
229
230 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
231 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
232 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
233 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
234 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
235 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
236
237 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
238 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
239 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
240 security.
241 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
242
243 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
244 parameters by name.
245 [Steve Henson]
246
247 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
248 Add CMAC pkey methods.
249 [Steve Henson]
250
251 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
252 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
253 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
254 [Steve Henson]
255
256 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
257 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
258 multi-process servers.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
262 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
263 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
264 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
265 RAND_METHOD structure.
266 [Steve Henson]
267
268 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
269 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
270 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
271 whose return value is often ignored.
272 [Steve Henson]
273
274 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
275
276 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
277 structure.
278 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
279
280 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
281 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
282 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
283 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
284 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
285 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
286 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
287
288 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
289 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
290 [Steve Henson]
291
292 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
293 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
294 summary of the connection parameters.
295 [Steve Henson]
296
297 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
298 of connection parameters.
299 [Steve Henson]
300
301 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
302 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
303
304 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
305 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
306 [Steve Henson]
307
308 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
309 [Steve Henson]
310
311 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
312 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
313 [Steve Henson]
314
315 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
316 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
317 [Steve Henson]
318
319 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
320 certificates.
321 [Steve Henson]
322
323 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
324 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
325 CRLs using the OCSP API.
326 [Steve Henson]
327
328 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
329 [Steve Henson]
330
331 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
332 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
333 [Steve Henson]
334
335 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
336 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
337 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
338 tracing.
339 [Steve Henson]
340
341 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
342 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
343 [Steve Henson]
344
345 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
346 OID NID.
347 [Steve Henson]
348
349 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
350 client to OpenSSL.
351 [Steve Henson]
352
353 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
354 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
355 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
356 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
357 [Steve Henson]
358
359 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
360 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
361 [Steve Henson]
362
363 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
364 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
365 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
366 comparison.
367 [Steve Henson]
368
369 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
370 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
371 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
372 use the certificate.
373 [Steve Henson]
374
375 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
379 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
380 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
381 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
382 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
383 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
384 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
385
386 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
387 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
388
389 [Steve Henson]
390
391 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
392 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
393 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
394 [Steve Henson]
395
396 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
397 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
398 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
399 supported signature algorithms.
400 [Steve Henson]
401
402 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
403 [Steve Henson]
404
405 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
406 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
407 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
408 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
409 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
410 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
411 certificate and specify the whole chain.
412 [Steve Henson]
413
414 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
415 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
416 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
417 to have similar checks in it.
418
419 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
420 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
421 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
422 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
423 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
424 [Steve Henson]
425
426 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
427 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
428 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
429 shared signature algorithms.
430 [Steve Henson]
431
432 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
433 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
434 to support them.
435 [Steve Henson]
436
437 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
438 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
439 it couldn't be removed.
440 [Steve Henson]
441
442 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
443 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
444 [Steve Henson]
445
446 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
447 functions. Add manual page.
448 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
449
450 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
451 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
452 a certificate.
453 [Steve Henson]
454
455 *) Fix OCSP checking.
456 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
457
458 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
459 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
460 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
461 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
462 utility) or reject.
463 [Steve Henson]
464
465 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
466 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
467 [Steve Henson]
468
469 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
470 platform support for Linux and Android.
471 [Andy Polyakov]
472
473 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
474 [Andy Polyakov]
475
476 *) RFC 5878 (TLS Authorization Extensions) support.
477 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
478
479 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
480 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
481 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
482 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
483 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
484 [Steve Henson]
485
486 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
487 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
488 the new parameter format automatically.
489 [Steve Henson]
490
491 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
492 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
493 [Steve Henson]
494
495 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
496 [Steve Henson]
497
498 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
499 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
500 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
501 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
502 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
503 [Steve Henson]
504
505 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
506 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
507 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
508 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
509 to set list of supported curves.
510 [Steve Henson]
511
512 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
513 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
514 to print out received values.
515 [Steve Henson]
516
517 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
518 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
519 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
520 [Steve Henson]
521
522 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
523 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
524 [Steve Henson]
525
526 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
527 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
528 [Steve Henson]
529
530 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
531 certificates.
532 [Steve Henson]
533
534 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
535
536 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
537 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
538 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
539
540 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
541
542 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
543
544 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
545 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found

548 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
549 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
550 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
551 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
552 (CVE-2013-0169)
553 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
554
555 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
556 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
557 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
558 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
559 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
560 (CVE-2012-2686)
561 [Adam Langley]
562
563 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
564 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
565 [Steve Henson]
566
567 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
568 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
569
570 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
571 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
572 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
573 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
574 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
575
576 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
577 [Steve Henson]
578
579 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
580 if renegotiating.
581 [Steve Henson]
582
583 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
584
585 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
586 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
587
588 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
589 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
590 (CVE-2012-2333)
591 [Steve Henson]
592
593 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
594 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
595 [Steve Henson]
596
597 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
598 approved.
599 [Steve Henson]
600
601 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
602
603 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
604 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
605 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
606 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
607 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
608 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
609 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
610 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
611 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
612 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
613 [Steve Henson]
614
615 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
616 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
617 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
618 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
619 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
620 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
621 client side.
622 [Andy Polyakov]
623
624 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
625
626 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
627 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
628 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
629
630 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
631 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
632 (CVE-2012-2110)
633 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
634
635 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
636 [Adam Langley]
637
638 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
639 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
640
641 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
642 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
643 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
644 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
645 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
646 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
647 Most broken servers should now work.
648 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
649 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
650 [Steve Henson]
651
652 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
653 [Andy Polyakov]
654
655 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
656
657 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
658 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
659 [Steve Henson]
660
661 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
662 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
663 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
664 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
665 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
666 [Steve Henson]
667
668 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
669 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
670 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
671 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
672 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
673 [Steve Henson]
674
675 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
676 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
677
678 *) Add support for SCTP.
679 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
680
681 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
682 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
683
684 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
685
686 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
687 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
688 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
689 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
690 - s390x: z196 support;
691 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
692
693 [Andy Polyakov]
694
695 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
696 (removal of unnecessary code)
697 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
698
699 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
700 [Eric Rescorla]
701
702 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
703 [Eric Rescorla]
704
705 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
706 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
707 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
708 by Google.
709 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
710
711 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
712 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
713 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
714 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
715 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
716
717 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
718 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
719 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
720
721 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
722 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
723 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
724
725 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
726 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
727 implementations).
728 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
729
730 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
731 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
732 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
733 [Steve Henson]
734
735 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
736 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
737 particular PSS.
738 [Steve Henson]
739
740 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
741 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
742 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
743 [Steve Henson]
744
745 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
746 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
747 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
748 the appropriate parameters.
749 [Steve Henson]
750
751 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
752 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
753 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
754 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
755 against a number of sample certificates.
756 [Steve Henson]
757
758 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
759 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
760
761 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
762 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
763
764 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
765 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
766 parameters r, s.
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
770 RFC3211.
771 [Steve Henson]
772
773 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
774 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
775 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
776 password based CMS).
777 [Steve Henson]
778
779 *) Session-handling fixes:
780 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
781 but also support Session Tickets.
782 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
783 presented a ticket with an expired session.
784 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
785 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
786 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
787 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
788
789 *) Fix PSK session representation.
790 [Bodo Moeller]
791
792 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
793
794 This work was sponsored by Intel.
795 [Andy Polyakov]
796
797 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
798 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
799 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
800 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
801 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
802 [Steve Henson]
803
804 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
805 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
806 [Steve Henson]
807
808 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
809 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
810 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
811 [Steve Henson]
812
813 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
814 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
815 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
816 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
817 [Steve Henson]
818
819 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
820 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
821 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
822 [Steve Henson]
823
824 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
825 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
826
827 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
828 [Steve Henson]
829
830 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
831 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
832 [Steve Henson]
833
834 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
835 [Steve Henson]
836
837 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
838 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
839 [Steve Henson]
840
841 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
842 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
843 [Steve Henson]
844
845 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
846 [Steve Henson]
847
848 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
849 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
850 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
851 [Steve Henson]
852
853 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
854 [Steve Henson]
855
856 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
857 [Steve Henson]
858
859 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
860 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
861 [Steve Henson]
862
863 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
864 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
865 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
866 [Steve Henson]
867
868 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
869 [Steve Henson]
870
871 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
872 and enable MD5.
873 [Steve Henson]
874
875 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
876 FIPS modules versions.
877 [Steve Henson]
878
879 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
880 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
881 until after the certificate request message is received.
882 [Steve Henson]
883
884 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
885 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
886 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
887 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
888 [Steve Henson]
889
890 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
891 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
892 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
893 support yet and no support for client certificates.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
897 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
898 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
899 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
900 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
901 and version checking.
902 [Steve Henson]
903
904 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
905 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
906 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
907 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
908 [Steve Henson]
909
910 *) Add SRP support.
911 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
912
913 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
914 [Steve Henson]
915
916 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
917 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
918 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
919
920 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
921 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
922 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
923 [Steve Henson]
924
925 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
926 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
927
928 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
929 a few changes are required:
930
931 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
932 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
933 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
934 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
935 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
936 [Steve Henson]
937
938 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
939
940 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
941
942 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
943 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
944 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
945
946 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
947 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
948 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
949 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
950 (CVE-2013-0169)
951 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
952
953 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
954 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
955 [Steve Henson]
956
957 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
958 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
959 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
960 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
961 (This is a backport)
962 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
963
964 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
965 [Steve Henson]
966
967 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
968
969 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
970 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
971
972 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
973 to fix DoS attack.
974
975 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
976 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
977 (CVE-2012-2333)
978 [Steve Henson]
979
980 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
981 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
982 [Steve Henson]
983
984 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
985
986 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
987 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
988 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
989
990 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
991 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
992 (CVE-2012-2110)
993 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
994
995 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
996
997 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
998 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
999 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1000 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1001 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1002 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1003 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1004 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1005 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1006 [Steve Henson]
1007
1008 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1009 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1010 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1011 [Steve Henson]
1012
1013 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1014
1015 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1016 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1017 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1018 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1019 [Antonio Martin]
1020
1021 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1022
1023 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1024 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1025 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1026 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1027 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1028 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1029 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1030 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1031 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1032 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1033 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1034 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1035 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1036
1037 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1038 (CVE-2011-4576)
1039 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1040
1041 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1042 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1043 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1044 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1045
1046 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1047 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1048
1049 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1050 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1051 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1052 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1053
1054 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1055 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1056
1057 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1058 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1059
1060 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1061 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1062
1063 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1064 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1065 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1066
1067 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1068 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1069 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1070
1071 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1072 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1073 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1074 the last update always remained unused).
1075 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1076
1077 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1078 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1079
1080 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1081
1082 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1083 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1084 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1085
1086 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1087 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1088 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1089
1090 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1091 [Bodo Moeller]
1092
1093 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1094 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1095 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1096 [Steve Henson]
1097
1098 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1099 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1100
1101 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1102
1103 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1104
1105 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1106
1107 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1108 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1109
1110 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1111 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1112 ambiguous.
1113 [Steve Henson]
1114
1115 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1116
1117 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1118 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1119 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1120 [Steve Henson]
1121
1122 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1123 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1124 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1125 [Ben Laurie]
1126
1127 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1128
1129 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1130 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1131 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1132 [Steve Henson]
1133
1134 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1135 a DLL.
1136 [Steve Henson]
1137
1138 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1139
1140 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1141 (CVE-2010-1633)
1142 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1143
1144 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1145
1146 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1147 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1148 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1149 [Steve Henson]
1150
1151 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1152 [Steve Henson]
1153
1154 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1155 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1156 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1157
1158 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1159 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1160 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1161 [Steve Henson]
1162
1163 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1164 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1165 [Steve Henson]
1166
1167 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1168 some responders need this.
1169 [Steve Henson]
1170
1171 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1172 correctly.
1173 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1174
1175 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1176 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1177 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1178 [Steve Henson]
1179
1180 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1181 [Steve Henson]
1182
1183 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1184 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1185 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1186 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1187 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1188 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1189 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1190 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1191 [Steve Henson]
1192
1193 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1194 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1195 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1196 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1197
1198 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1199 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1200
1201 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1202 be used on C++.
1203 [Steve Henson]
1204
1205 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1206 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1207 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1208 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1209 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1210 attempting to work them out.
1211 [Steve Henson]
1212
1213 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1214 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1215 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1216 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1217 [Steve Henson]
1218
1219 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1220 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1221 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1222 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1223 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1224 [Steve Henson]
1225
1226 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1227 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1228 you can do:
1229
1230 openssl sha256 foo
1231
1232 as well as:
1233
1234 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1235
1236 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1237
1238 [Steve Henson]
1239
1240 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1241 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1242
1243 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1244 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1245
1246 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1247 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1248 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1249 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1250 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1251 [Steve Henson]
1252
1253 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1254 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1255 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1256 [Steve Henson]
1257
1258 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1259 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1260 [Steve Henson]
1261
1262 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1263 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1264
1265 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1266 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1267 [Steve Henson]
1268
1269 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1270 [Ben Laurie]
1271
1272 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1273 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1274 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1275 CONF_VALUE.
1276 [Ben Laurie]
1277
1278 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1279 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1280 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1281 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1282 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1283 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1284 [Steve Henson]
1285
1286 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1287 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1288
1289 This work was sponsored by Google.
1290 [Steve Henson]
1291
1292 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1293 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1294 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1295 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1296 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1297 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1298 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1299 default.
1300
1301 This work was sponsored by Google.
1302 [Steve Henson]
1303
1304 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1305
1306 This work was sponsored by Google.
1307 [Steve Henson]
1308
1309 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1310 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1311 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1312 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1313
1314 This work was sponsored by Google.
1315 [Steve Henson]
1316
1317 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1318 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1319 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1320 CRL functionality in future.
1321
1322 This work was sponsored by Google.
1323 [Steve Henson]
1324
1325 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1326
1327 This work was sponsored by Google.
1328 [Steve Henson]
1329
1330 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1331 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1332
1333 This work was sponsored by Google.
1334 [Steve Henson]
1335
1336 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1337 and URI types are currently supported.
1338
1339 This work was sponsored by Google.
1340 [Steve Henson]
1341
1342 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1343 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1344 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1345 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1346 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1347 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1348 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1349 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1350
1351 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1352 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1353 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1354
1355 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1356 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1357 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1358 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1359
1360 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1361 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1362 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1363 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1364 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1365 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1366 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1367 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1368 of &errno.)
1369 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1370
1371 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1372 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1373 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1374
1375 This work was sponsored by Google.
1376 [Steve Henson]
1377
1378 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1379 [Ben Laurie]
1380
1381 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1382 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1383 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1384 [Ben Laurie]
1385
1386 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1387 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1388 [Nick Mathewson]
1389
1390 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1391 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1392 [Ben Laurie]
1393
1394 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1395 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1396 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1397 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1398 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1399 content types and variants.
1400 [Steve Henson]
1401
1402 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1403 [Steve Henson]
1404
1405 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1406 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1407 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1408 files from the associated perl scripts.
1409 [Steve Henson]
1410
1411 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1412 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1413 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1414
1415 *) s390x assembler pack.
1416 [Andy Polyakov]
1417
1418 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1419 "family."
1420 [Andy Polyakov]
1421
1422 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1423 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1424 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1425 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1426 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1427 to use. For example, specify an option
1428
1429 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1430
1431 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1432 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1433 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1434 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1435 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1436 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1437
1438 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1439 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1440 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1441 return non-zero for success.
1442
1443 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1444 by using
1445
1446 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1447 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1448
1449 where
1450
1451 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1452 void *arg;
1453
1454 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1455 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1456 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1457 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1458 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1459 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1460 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1461 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1462 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1463
1464 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1465 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1466 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1467 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1468 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1469 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1470
1471 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1472 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1473 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1474 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1475 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1476 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1477
1478 [Bodo Moeller]
1479
1480 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1481 MAC.
1482
1483 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1484
1485 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1486 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1487 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1488 supported.
1489
1490 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1491 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1492 SSL_SESSION.
1493
1494 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1495 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1496 with no application modification.
1497
1498 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1499 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1500
1501 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1502 or server extensions to be examined.
1503
1504 This work was sponsored by Google.
1505 [Steve Henson]
1506
1507 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1508 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1509 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1510
1511 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1512 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1513 ciphersuite support.
1514 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1515
1516 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1517 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1518 to output in BER and PEM format.
1519 [Steve Henson]
1520
1521 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1522 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1523 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1524 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1525 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1526 [Steve Henson]
1527
1528 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1529 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1530 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1531 utility.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1535 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1536 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1537 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1538 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1539 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1540 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1541 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1542 enabled again.
1543
1544 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1545 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1546 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1547 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1548
1549 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1550 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1551 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1552 the default order.
1553 [Bodo Moeller]
1554
1555 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1556 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1557 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1558 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1559 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1560 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1561 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1562 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1563 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1564
1565 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1566 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1567 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1568 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1569 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1570 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1571 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1572 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1573 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1574 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1575 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1576 kinds of kludges.
1577
1578 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1579 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1580 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1581
1582 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1583 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1584 "CAMELLIA256".
1585 [Bodo Moeller]
1586
1587 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1588 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1589 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1590 [Nils Larsch]
1591
1592 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1593 it yet and it is largely untested.
1594 [Steve Henson]
1595
1596 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1597 [Nils Larsch]
1598
1599 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1600 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1601 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1605 [Andy Polyakov]
1606
1607 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1608 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1609 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1610 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1611 [Steve Henson]
1612
1613 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1614 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1615 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1616 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1617 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1618 [Steve Henson]
1619
1620 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1621 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1622 [Cryptocom]
1623
1624 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1625 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1626 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1627 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1628 [Steve Henson]
1629
1630 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1631 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1632 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1633 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1637 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1638 [Steve Henson]
1639
1640 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1641 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1642 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1643 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1644 [Steve Henson]
1645
1646 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1647 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1648 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1649 [Steve Henson]
1650
1651 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1652 utility.
1653 [Steve Henson]
1654
1655 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1656 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1657 [Steve Henson]
1658
1659 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1660 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1661 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1662 if necessary.
1663 [Steve Henson]
1664
1665 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1666 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1667 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1668 [Steve Henson]
1669
1670 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1671 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1672 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1673 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1674 [Steve Henson]
1675
1676 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1677 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1678 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1679 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1680 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1681 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1682 [Douglas Stebila]
1683
1684 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1685 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1686 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1687 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1688 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1689
1690 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1691 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1692 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1693 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1694 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1695 protocol).
1696
1697 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1698 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1699 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1700 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1701
1702 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1703 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1704 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1705 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1706 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1707
1708 aECDH - ECDH cert
1709 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1710 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1711
1712 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1713 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1714
1715 [Bodo Moeller]
1716
1717 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1718 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1719 [Steve Henson]
1720
1721 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1722 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1726 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1727 functional reference processing.
1728 [Steve Henson]
1729
1730 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1731 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1732 process.
1733 [Steve Henson]
1734
1735 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1736 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1737 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1738 [Steve Henson]
1739
1740 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1741 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1742 application to support multiple signers.
1743 [Steve Henson]
1744
1745 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1746 digest MAC.
1747 [Steve Henson]
1748
1749 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1750 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1751 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1752 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1753 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1754 [Steve Henson]
1755
1756 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1757 new API.
1758 [Steve Henson]
1759
1760 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1761 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1762 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1763 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1764 a no op.
1765 [Steve Henson]
1766
1767 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1768 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1769 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1770 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1771 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1772 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1773 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1774 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
1777 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1778 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1779 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1780 between digests and public key types.
1781 [Steve Henson]
1782
1783 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1784 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1785 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1786 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1787 [Steve Henson]
1788
1789 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1790 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1791 key ASN1 method.
1792 [Steve Henson]
1793
1794 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1795 [Steve Henson]
1796
1797 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1798 pkeyutl.
1799 [Steve Henson]
1800
1801 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1802 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1803 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1804 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1805 pkey, genpkey.
1806 [Steve Henson]
1807
1808 *) BeOS support.
1809 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1810
1811 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1812 manual pages.
1813 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1814
1815 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1816 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1817 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1818 functionality for RSA.
1819 [Steve Henson]
1820
1821 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1822 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1823 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1827 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1828 [Steve Henson]
1829
1830 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1831 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1832 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1833 [Steve Henson]
1834
1835 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1836 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1837 [Douglas Stebila]
1838
1839 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1840 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1841 [Steve Henson]
1842
1843 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1844 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1845 type.
1846 [Steve Henson]
1847
1848 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1849 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1850 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1851 structure.
1852 [Steve Henson]
1853
1854 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1855 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1856 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1857 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1858 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1859 of public and private key structures.
1860 [Steve Henson]
1861
1862 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1863 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1864 [Douglas Stebila]
1865
1866 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1867 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1868 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1869
1870 New ciphersuites:
1871 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1872 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1873
1874 New functions:
1875 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1876 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1877 SSL_get_psk_identity
1878 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1879
1880 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1881
1882 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1883 and response verification functionality.
1884 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1885
1886 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1887 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1888 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1889 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1890 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1891 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1892 server_name extension.
1893
1894 New functions (subject to change):
1895
1896 SSL_get_servername()
1897 SSL_get_servername_type()
1898 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1899
1900 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1901
1902 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1903 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1904 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1905 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1906 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1907
1908 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1909
1910 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1911 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1912 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1913 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1914 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1915 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1916 option.
1917
1918 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1919
1920 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1921 [Andy Polyakov]
1922
1923 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1924 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1925 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1926 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1927 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1928 [Andy Polyakov]
1929
1930 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1931 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1932 macro.
1933 [Bodo Moeller]
1934
1935 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1936 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1937 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1938 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1939 [Andy Polyakov]
1940
1941 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1942 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1943 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1944 using the maximum available value.
1945 [Steve Henson]
1946
1947 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1948 in addition to the text details.
1949 [Bodo Moeller]
1950
1951 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1952 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1953 handle several customised structures at all.
1954 [Steve Henson]
1955
1956 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1957 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1958 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1959 [Steve Henson]
1960
1961 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1962 [Steve Henson]
1963
1964 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1965 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1966 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1967 [Steve Henson]
1968
1969 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1970 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1971 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1972 [Nils Larsch]
1973
1974 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1975 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1976 all fields.
1977 [Steve Henson]
1978
1979 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1980 [Steve Henson]
1981
1982 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1983 [NTT]
1984
1985 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
1986
1987 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1988
1989 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1990 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1991 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1992
1993 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1994 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1995 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1996 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1997 (CVE-2013-0169)
1998 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1999
2000 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
2001 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
2002 [Steve Henson]
2003
2004 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
2005 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
2006 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
2007 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
2008 (This is a backport)
2009 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2010
2011 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2012 [Steve Henson]
2013
2014 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2015
2016 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2017 to fix DoS attack.
2018
2019 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2020 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2021 (CVE-2012-2333)
2022 [Steve Henson]
2023
2024 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2025 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2029
2030 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2031 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2032 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2033 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2034 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2035
2036 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2037
2038 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2039 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2040 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2041
2042 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2043 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2044 (CVE-2012-2110)
2045 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2046
2047 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2048
2049 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2050 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2051 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2052 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2053 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2054 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2055 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2056 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2057 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2058 [Steve Henson]
2059
2060 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2061 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2062 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2063 [Steve Henson]
2064
2065 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
2066
2067 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2068 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2069 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2070 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2071 [Antonio Martin]
2072
2073 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
2074
2075 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2076 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2077 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2078 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2079 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2080 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2081 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2082 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2083 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2084 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2085 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2086 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2087 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2088
2089 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
2090 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
2091
2092 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2093 (CVE-2011-4576)
2094 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2095
2096 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2097 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2098 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2099 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2100
2101 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2102 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2103 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2104 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2105
2106 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2107 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2108
2109 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2110 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2111
2112 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2113 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2114 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2115
2116 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2117 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2118 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2119
2120 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2121 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2122 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2123 the last update always remained unused).
2124 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2125
2126 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2127 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
2128 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2129
2130 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2131 [Bodo Moeller]
2132
2133 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2134 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2135
2136 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2137
2138 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2139
2140 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
2141
2142 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2143 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2144
2145 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2146 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2147 ambiguous.
2148 [Steve Henson]
2149
2150 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
2151
2152 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2153 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2154 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2155 [Steve Henson]
2156
2157 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2158 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2159 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2160 [Ben Laurie]
2161
2162 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
2163
2164 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2165 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2166 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2167 [Steve Henson]
2168
2169 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2170 [Steve Henson]
2171
2172 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
2173 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2174 some broken encodings work correctly.
2175 [Steve Henson]
2176
2177 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2178 is also one of the inputs.
2179 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2180
2181 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2182 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2183 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2184 etc are non-op.
2185 [Steve Henson]
2186
2187 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2188
2189 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2190 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
2191
2192 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2193 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2194 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2195
2196 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2197 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2198 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2199 [Steve Henson]
2200
2201 *) VMS fixes:
2202 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2203 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2204 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2205 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2206
2207 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2208
2209 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2210 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2211 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2212 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2213 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2214 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2215 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2216 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2217
2218 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2219 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2220 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2221
2222 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2223
2224 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2225 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2226
2227 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2228 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2229 [Bodo Moeller]
2230
2231 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2232 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2233 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2234 [Steve Henson]
2235
2236 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2237 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2238 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2239 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2240 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2241 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2242 [Steve Henson]
2243
2244 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2245 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2246 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2247 [Steve Henson]
2248
2249 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2250 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2251 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2252 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2253 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2254 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2255 CVE-2009-4355.
2256 [Steve Henson]
2257
2258 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2259 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2260 [Bodo Moeller]
2261
2262 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2263 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2264 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2265 [Steve Henson]
2266
2267 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2268 [Steve Henson]
2269
2270 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2271 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2272 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2273 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2274 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2275 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2276 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2277 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2278 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2279 [Steve Henson]
2280
2281 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2282 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2283 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2284 [Steve Henson]
2285
2286 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2287 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2288 [Steve Henson]
2289
2290 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2291 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2292 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2293 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2294 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2295 know what you are doing.
2296 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2297
2298 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2299 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2300 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2301 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2302 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2303 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2304 the handshake.
2305 [Steve Henson]
2306
2307 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2308 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2309 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2310 correctly.
2311 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2312
2313 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2314 warnings in other configurations.
2315 [Steve Henson]
2316
2317 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2318 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2319 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2320 systems need.
2321 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2322
2323 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2324 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2325 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2326
2327 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2328 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2329 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2330 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2331 [Steve Henson]
2332
2333 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2334 and restored.
2335 [Steve Henson]
2336
2337 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2338 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2339 clash.
2340 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2341
2342 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2343 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2344 other than a simple chain.
2345 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2346
2347 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2348 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2349 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2350 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2351 [Steve Henson]
2352
2353 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2354 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2355 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2356 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2357 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2358 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2359 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2360 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2361 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2362
2363 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2364 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2365 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2366 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2367 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2368 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2369 (CVE-2009-1377)
2370 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2371
2372 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2373 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2374 [Daniel Mentz]
2375
2376 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2377 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2378
2379 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2380 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2381
2382 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2383
2384 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2385 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2386 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2387 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2388 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2389 you're doing.
2390 [Ben Laurie]
2391
2392 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2393
2394 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2395 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2396 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2397 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2398
2399 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2400 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2401 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2402 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2403
2404 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2405 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2406 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2407 [Steve Henson]
2408
2409 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2410 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2411 level.
2412 [Steve Henson]
2413
2414 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2415 to handle some structures.
2416 [Steve Henson]
2417
2418 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2419 for a '\n'
2420 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2421
2422 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2423 [Matthieu Herrb]
2424
2425 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2426 [Steve Henson]
2427
2428 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2429 [Steve Henson]
2430
2431 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2432 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2433 chosen compiler.
2434 [Ben Laurie]
2435
2436 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2437
2438 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2439 (CVE-2008-5077).
2440 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2441
2442 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2443 [Ben Laurie]
2444
2445 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2446 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2447 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2448 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2449
2450 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2451 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2452
2453 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2454 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2455 [Bodo Moeller]
2456
2457 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2458 s_client and s_server.
2459 [Ben Laurie]
2460
2461 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2462 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2463
2464 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2465 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2466
2467 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2468 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2469 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2470 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2471 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2472 [Bodo Moeller]
2473
2474 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2475
2476 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2477 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2478 [PR #1679]
2479
2480 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2481 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2482 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2483
2484 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2485 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2486 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2487 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2488
2489 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2490 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2491
2492 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2493
2494 *) Various precautionary measures:
2495
2496 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2497
2498 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2499 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2500 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2501
2502 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2503 outside the expected range.
2504
2505 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2506 builds.
2507
2508 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2509
2510 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2511 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2512 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2513
2514 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2515 [Steve Henson]
2516
2517 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2518 [Huang Ying]
2519
2520 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2521
2522 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2523 [Steve Henson]
2524
2525 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2526 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2527 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2528
2529 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2530 [Steve Henson]
2531
2532 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2533 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2534 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2535 files.
2536 [Steve Henson]
2537
2538 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2539
2540 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2541 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2542 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2543 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2544
2545 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2546 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2547 [Joe Orton]
2548
2549 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2550
2551 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2552 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2553 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2554
2555 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2556
2557 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2558 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2559 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2560 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2561 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2562
2563 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2564 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2565 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2566 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2567 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2568 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2569 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2570
2571 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2572
2573 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2574 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2575 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2576 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2577 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2578
2579 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2580 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2581
2582 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2583 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2584 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2585 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2586 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2587
2588 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2589
2590 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2591 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2592 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2593 sets may exist with different names.
2594 [Steve Henson]
2595
2596 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2597 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2598 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2599 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2600 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2601 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2602 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2603 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2604 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2605 implementation.
2606 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2607
2608 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2609 implemention in the following ways:
2610
2611 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2612 hard coded.
2613
2614 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2615 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2616 ignored for embedded content.
2617
2618 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2619 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2620 [Steve Henson]
2621
2622 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2623 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2624 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2625 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2626
2627 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2628 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2629 [Steve Henson]
2630
2631 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2632 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2633 [Steve Henson]
2634
2635 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2636 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2637 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2638 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2639 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2640 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2641 data.
2642 [Steve Henson]
2643
2644 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2645 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2646 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2647
2648 *) Netware support:
2649
2650 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2651 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2652 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2653 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2654 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2655 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2656 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2657 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2658 platform
2659 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2660 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2661 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2662 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2663 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2664 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2665 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2666
2667 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2668 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2669 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2670 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2671 to s_client and s_server.
2672 [Steve Henson]
2673
2674 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2675
2676 *) Fix various bugs:
2677 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2678 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2679 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2680 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2681 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2682
2683 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2684
2685 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2686 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2687 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2688 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2689 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2690 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2691 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2692 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2693 [Andy Polyakov]
2694
2695 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2696 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2697 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2698 Steve Henson]
2699
2700 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2701 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2702 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2703 supported.
2704
2705 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2706 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2707 SSL_SESSION.
2708
2709 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2710 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2711 with no application modification.
2712
2713 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2714 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2715
2716 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2717 or server extensions to be examined.
2718
2719 This work was sponsored by Google.
2720 [Steve Henson]
2721
2722 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2723 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2724 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2725 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2726 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2727 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2728 server_name extension.
2729
2730 New functions (subject to change):
2731
2732 SSL_get_servername()
2733 SSL_get_servername_type()
2734 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2735
2736 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2737
2738 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2739 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2740 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2741 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2742 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2743
2744 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2745
2746 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2747 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2748 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2749 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2750 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2751 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2752 option.
2753
2754 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2755
2756 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2757 [Steve Henson]
2758
2759 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2760 [Andy Polyakov]
2761
2762 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2763 (which previously caused an internal error).
2764 [Bodo Moeller]
2765
2766 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2767 [Ben Laurie]
2768
2769 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2770 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2771
2772 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2773 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2774 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2775
2776 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2777 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2778 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2779 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2780
2781 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2782 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2783 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2784 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2785
2786 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2787 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2788 information. For detailed background information, see
2789 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2790 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2791 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2792 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2793 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2794 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2795 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2796 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2797 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2798 remove a conditional branch.
2799
2800 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2801 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2802 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2803 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2804 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2805 remains as a deprecated alias.
2806
2807 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2808 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2809 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2810 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2811
2812 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2813 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2814 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2815 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2816 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2817 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2818 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2819 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2820
2821 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2822
2823 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2824 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2825 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2826 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2827 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2828 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2829 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2830 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2831 in a different context.
2832 [Bodo Moeller]
2833
2834 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2835 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2836 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2837 [Bodo Moeller]
2838
2839 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2840 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2841 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2842
2843 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2844
2845 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2846 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2847 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2848 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2849 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2850 [Victor Duchovni]
2851
2852 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2853 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2854 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2855 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2856 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2857 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2858 [Bodo Moeller]
2859
2860 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2861 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2862 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2863 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2864 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2865 [Bodo Moeller]
2866
2867 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2868 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2869
2870 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2871 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2872 Improve header file function name parsing.
2873 [Steve Henson]
2874
2875 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2876 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2877 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2878
2879 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2880
2881 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2882 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2883 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2884
2885 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2886 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2887
2888 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2889 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2890
2891 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2892 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2893 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2894
2895 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2896 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2897 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2898 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2899 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2900 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2901 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2902 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2903 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2904
2905 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2906 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2907 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2908 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2909 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2910
2911 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2912 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2913 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2914 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2915 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2916 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2917 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2918 multiple values to extend the available space.
2919
2920 [Bodo Moeller]
2921
2922 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2923
2924 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2925 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2926
2927 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2928 [Ben Laurie]
2929
2930 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2931 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2932 undesirable limitations.
2933 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2934
2935 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2936 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2937 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2938 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2939 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2940 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2941 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2942 [Bodo Moeller]
2943
2944 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2945
2946 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2947 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2948 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2949
2950 The latter two were purportedly from
2951 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2952 appear there.
2953
2954 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2955 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2956 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2957 [Bodo Moeller]
2958
2959 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2960 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2961 [Bodo Moeller]
2962
2963 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2964 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2965 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2966 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2967
2968 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2969 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2970 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2971 [NTT]
2972
2973 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2974 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2975 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2976 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2977 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2978 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2979 [Steve Henson]
2980
2981 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2982
2983 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2984 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2985 [Steve Henson]
2986
2987 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2988 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2989
2990 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2991 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2992 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2993 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2994 [Douglas Stebila]
2995
2996 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2997 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2998 [Steve Henson]
2999
3000 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3001 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3002 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3003 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3004 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3005 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3006 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3007 can't be loaded.
3008 [Steve Henson]
3009
3010 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3011 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3012 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3013 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3014 [Steve Henson]
3015
3016 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3017 under VC++ build system.
3018 [Steve Henson]
3019
3020 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3021 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3022 [Richard Levitte]
3023
3024 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3025
3026 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3027 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3028 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3029 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3030 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3031
3032 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3033 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3034 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3035
3036 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3037 [Steve Henson]
3038
3039 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3040 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3041 [Nils Larsch]
3042
3043 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3044 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3045
3046 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3047 [Nick Mathewson]
3048
3049 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3050 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3051
3052 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3053 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3054 [Steve Henson]
3055
3056 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3057 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3058 smime utility.
3059 [Steve Henson]
3060
3061 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3062
3063 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3064 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3065
3066 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3067 [Richard Levitte]
3068
3069 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3070 key into the same file any more.
3071 [Richard Levitte]
3072
3073 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3074 [Andy Polyakov]
3075
3076 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3077 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3078
3079 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3080 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3081 [Richard Levitte]
3082
3083 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3084 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3085 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3086 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3087 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3088 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3089
3090 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3091 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3092 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3093 [Steve Henson]
3094
3095 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3096 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3097 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3098 - add new function for parameter creation
3099 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3100 BN_BLINDING parameters
3101 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3102 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3103 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3104 threads.
3105 [Nils Larsch]
3106
3107 *) Add support for DTLS.
3108 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3109
3110 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3111 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3112 [Walter Goulet]
3113
3114 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3115 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3116 [Nils Larsch]
3117
3118 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3119 the apps/openssl applications.
3120 [Nils Larsch]
3121
3122 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3123 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3124 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3125 [Ben Laurie]
3126
3127 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3128 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3129
3130 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3131 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3132
3133 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3134 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3135 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3136 avoid this algorithm.)
3137
3138 [Bodo Moeller]
3139
3140 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3141 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3142 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3143 [Richard Levitte]
3144
3145 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3146 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3147 [Andy Polyakov]
3148
3149 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3150 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3151 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3152 pod file:
3153
3154 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3155
3156 The blank line is mandatory.
3157
3158 [Steve Henson]
3159
3160 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3161 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3162 sources.
3163 [Steve Henson]
3164
3165 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3166 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3167
3168 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3169 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3170 to support policy checking and print out.
3171 [Steve Henson]
3172
3173 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3174 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3175 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3176 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3177
3178 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3179 [Geoff Thorpe]
3180
3181 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3182 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3183
3184 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3185 implementation contributed by IBM.
3186 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3187
3188 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3189 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3190 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3191 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3192
3193 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3194 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3195
3196 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3197 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3198 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3199 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3200 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3201 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3202 [Steve Henson]
3203
3204 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3205 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3206 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3207 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3208 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3209 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3210 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3211 [Geoff Thorpe]
3212
3213 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3214 [Steve Henson]
3215
3216 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3217 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3218 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3219 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3220 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3221 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3222 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3223 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3224 [Steve Henson]
3225
3226 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3227 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3228 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3229 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3230 [Steve Henson]
3231
3232 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3233 syntax:
3234
3235 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3236 [Steve Henson]
3237
3238 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3239 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3240 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3241 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3242 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3243 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3244 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3245 [Geoff Thorpe]
3246
3247 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3248 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3249 [Geoff Thorpe]
3250
3251 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3252 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3253 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3254 [Steve Henson]
3255
3256 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3257 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3258 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3259 below).
3260 [Geoff Thorpe]
3261
3262 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3263 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3264 [Richard Levitte]
3265
3266 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3267 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3268 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3269 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3270 [Geoff Thorpe]
3271
3272 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3273 initialised value as BN_new().
3274 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3275
3276 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3277 [Steve Henson]
3278
3279 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3280 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3281 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3282 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3283 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3284 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3285 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3286 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3287 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3288 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3289 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3290 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3291 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3292 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3293 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3294
3295 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3296 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3297 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3298 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3299 [Geoff Thorpe]
3300
3301 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3302 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3303 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3304 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3305 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3306 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3307 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3308 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3309 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3310 [Geoff Thorpe]
3311
3312 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3313 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3314 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3315 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3316 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3317 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3318 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3319 [Geoff Thorpe]
3320
3321 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3322 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3323 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3324 these have been updated also.
3325 [Geoff Thorpe]
3326
3327 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3328 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3329 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3330 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3331 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3332 functions.
3333 [Steve Henson]
3334
3335 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3336 structure of type "other".
3337 [Steve Henson]
3338
3339 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3340 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3341 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3342 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3343 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3344 situation in the script.
3345 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3346
3347 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3348 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3349 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3350 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3351 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3352 used as premaster secret.
3353 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3354
3355 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3356 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3357 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3358
3359 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3360 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3361
3362 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3363 control of the error stack.
3364 [Richard Levitte]
3365
3366 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3367 [Richard Levitte]
3368
3369 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3370 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3371 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3372 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3373 [Richard Levitte]
3374
3375 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3376 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3377 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3378 [Richard Levitte]
3379
3380 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3381 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3382 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3383 a memory area.
3384 [Richard Levitte]
3385
3386 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3387 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3388 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3389 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3390 [Richard Levitte]
3391
3392 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3393 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3394 the following flags are defined:
3395
3396 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3397 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3398 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3399 number.
3400
3401 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3402 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3403 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3404 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3405 returns zero.
3406 [Richard Levitte]
3407
3408 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3409 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3410 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3411 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3412 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3413 [Richard Levitte]
3414
3415 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3416 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3417 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3418 [Richard Levitte]
3419
3420 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3421 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3422 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3423 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3424 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3425 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3426 [Richard Levitte]
3427
3428 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3429 req and dirName.
3430 [Steve Henson]
3431
3432 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3433 [Steve Henson]
3434
3435 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3436 [Steve Henson]
3437
3438 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3439 [Steve Henson]
3440
3441 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3442 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3443 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3444 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3445 default implementation more easily.
3446 [Geoff Thorpe]
3447
3448 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3449 in config files.
3450 [Steve Henson]
3451
3452 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3453 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3454 [Richard Levitte]
3455
3456 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3457 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3458 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3459 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3460
3461 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3462 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3463 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3464 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3465 [Steve Henson]
3466
3467 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3468 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3469 to do it.
3470 [Richard Levitte]
3471
3472 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3473 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3474 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3475 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3476 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3477 scalar * generator).
3478 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3479
3480 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3481 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3482 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3483 correctly.
3484 [Steve Henson]
3485
3486 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3487 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3488 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3489 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3490 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3491 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3492 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3493 linker additions, eg;
3494 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3495 [Geoff Thorpe]
3496
3497 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3498 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3499 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3500 [Geoff Thorpe]
3501
3502 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3503 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3504 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3505 via PR#459)
3506 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3507
3508 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3509 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3510 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3511 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3512 [Geoff Thorpe]
3513
3514 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3515 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3516 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3517 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3518 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3519 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3520 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3521 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3522 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3523 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3524
3525 Example for using the new callback interface:
3526
3527 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3528 void *my_arg = ...;
3529 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3530
3531 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3532
3533 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3534 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3535 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3536 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3537 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3538 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3539 */
3540
3541 [Geoff Thorpe]
3542
3543 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3544 available to TLS with the number defined in
3545 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3546 [Richard Levitte]
3547
3548 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3549 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3550
3551 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3552 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3553 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3554 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3555
3556 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3557 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3558
3559 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3560 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3561 well.
3562 [Richard Levitte]
3563
3564 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3565 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3566 [Richard Levitte]
3567
3568 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3569 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3570 and a macro that behave like
3571 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3572
3573 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3574 [Nils Larsch]
3575
3576 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3577 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3578 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3579 if applicable.
3580 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3581
3582 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3583 [Bodo Moeller]
3584
3585 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3586 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3587 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3588 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3589 directory engines/.
3590 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3591 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3592 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3593 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3594 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3595 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3596 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3597 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3598
3599 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3600 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3601 [Richard Levitte]
3602
3603 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3604 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3605
3606 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3607 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3608 files while avoiding the low level API.
3609
3610 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3611 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3612 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3613 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3614
3615 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3616 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3617 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3618 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3619 instead of the low level API.
3620 [Steve Henson]
3621
3622 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3623 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3624 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3625 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3626 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3627 PKCS#7 code.
3628
3629 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3630 down to the template encoder.
3631 [Steve Henson]
3632
3633 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3634 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3635 [Bodo Moeller]
3636
3637 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3638 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3639 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3640 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3641
3642 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3643 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3644
3645 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3646 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3647
3648 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3649 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3650 [Bodo Moeller]
3651
3652 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3653 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3654 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3655 [Bodo Moeller]
3656
3657 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3658 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3659
3660 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3661 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3662
3663 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3664 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3665 New EC_METHOD:
3666
3667 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3668
3669 New API functions:
3670
3671 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3672 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3673 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3674 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3675 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3676 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3677
3678 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3679 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3680 enable it).
3681
3682 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3683 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3684 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3685 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3686 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3687 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3688 various internal method names.)
3689
3690 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3691 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3692
3693 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3694 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3695
3696 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3697 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3698
3699 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3700 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3701 methods are undefined.
3702
3703 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3704 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3705
3706 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3707 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3708 length of the modulus.
3709
3710 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3711 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3712
3713 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3714 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3715
3716 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3717 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3718
3719 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3720 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3721 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3722
3723 BN_GF2m_add
3724 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3725 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3726 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3727 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3728 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3729 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3730 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3731 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3732 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3733
3734 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3735 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3736
3737 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3738 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3739 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3740 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3741 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3742 where
3743 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3744 This applies to the following functions:
3745
3746 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3747 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3748 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3749 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3750 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3751 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3752 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3753 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3754 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3755 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3756
3757 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3758
3759 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3760 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3761
3762 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3763
3764 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3765 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3766 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3767 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3768 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3769
3770 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3771 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3772
3773 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3774 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3775 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3776
3777 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3778 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3779
3780 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3781 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3782 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3783 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3784 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3785
3786 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3787 functions
3788 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3789 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3790 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3791 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3792 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3793 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3794 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3795 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3796 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3797 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3798 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3799 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3800
3801 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3802 functions
3803 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3804 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3805 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3806 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3807 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3808
3809 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3810 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3811 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3812 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3813
3814 *) Add functions
3815 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3816 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3817 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3818 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3819 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3820 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3821 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3822
3823 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3824 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3825 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3826 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3827 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3828 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3829 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3830 adding different types of curves.
3831 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3832
3833 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3834 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3835 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3836 [Bodo Moeller]
3837
3838 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3839 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3840
3841 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3842 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3843 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3844 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3845
3846 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3847
3848 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3849 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3850
3851 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3852 library. Most notably,
3853 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3854 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3855 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3856 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3857 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3858 extracted before the specific public key;
3859 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3860 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3861
3862 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3863 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3864 function
3865 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3866 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3867 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3868 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3869 accessed via
3870 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3871 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3872 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3873
3874 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3875 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3876 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3877 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3878 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3879 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3880 differing sizes.
3881 [Richard Levitte]
3882
3883 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3884
3885 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3886 sensitive data.
3887 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3888
3889 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3890 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3891 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3892 [Bodo Moeller]
3893
3894 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3895 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3896 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3897 [Victor Duchovni]
3898
3899 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3900 [Steve Henson]
3901
3902 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3903 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3904 [Steve Henson]
3905
3906 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3907 run algorithm test programs.
3908 [Steve Henson]
3909
3910 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3911 [Steve Henson]
3912
3913 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3914 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3915 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3916 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3917 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3918 [Bodo Moeller]
3919
3920 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3921 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3922 [Steve Henson]
3923
3924 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3925
3926 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3927 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3928 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3929
3930 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3931 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3932
3933 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3934 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3935
3936 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3937 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3938 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3939
3940 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3941 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3942 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3943 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3944 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3945 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3946 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3947 [Bodo Moeller]
3948
3949 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3950
3951 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3952 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3953
3954 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3955 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3956 undesirable limitations.
3957 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3958
3959 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3960
3961 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3962 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3963 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3964
3965 The latter two were purportedly from
3966 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3967 appear there.
3968
3969 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3970 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3971 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3972 [Bodo Moeller]
3973
3974 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3975 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3976 [Bodo Moeller]
3977
3978 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3979
3980 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3981 module in FIPS mode.
3982 [Steve Henson]
3983
3984 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3985 [Steve Henson]
3986
3987 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3988 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3989 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3990 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3991 [Steve Henson]
3992
3993 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3994
3995 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3996 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3997 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3998 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3999 the difference induced by this change.
4000 [Andy Polyakov]
4001
4002 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4003
4004 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4005 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4006 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4007 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4008 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4009
4010 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4011 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4012 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4013
4014 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4015 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4016 [Steve Henson]
4017
4018 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4019 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4020 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4021 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4022 biased k.)
4023 [Bodo Moeller]
4024
4025 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4026 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4027 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4028 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4029 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4030
4031 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4032 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4033 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4034 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4035 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4036 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4037
4038 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4039
4040 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4041 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4042 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4043 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4044 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4045 [Bodo Moeller]
4046
4047 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4048 clients need.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4052 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4053 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4054 [Steve Henson]
4055
4056 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4057 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4058 structures constant.
4059 [Steve Henson]
4060
4061 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4062
4063 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4064 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4065
4066 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4067 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4068 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4069 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4070 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4071 some needed definitions.
4072 [Steve Henson]
4073
4074 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4075 [Ulf Möller]
4076
4077 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4078 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4079 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4080 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4081 [Richard Levitte]
4082
4083 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4084
4085 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4086 server and client random values. Previously
4087 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4088 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4089
4090 This change has negligible security impact because:
4091
4092 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4093 data.
4094
4095 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4096 handshake.
4097
4098 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4099 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4100 values.
4101
4102 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4103 to our attention.
4104
4105 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4106
4107 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4108 [Ulf Möller]
4109
4110 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4111 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4112 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4113
4114 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4115 [Steve Henson]
4116
4117 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4118 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4119 [Andy Polyakov]
4120
4121 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4122 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4123 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4124
4125 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4126 [Steve Henson]
4127
4128 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4129 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4130 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4131 certificates.
4132 [Steve Henson]
4133
4134 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4135 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4136 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4137 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4138
4139 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4140 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4141 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4142 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4143 been given)
4144 [Richard Levitte]
4145
4146 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4147
4148 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4149 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4150 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4151 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4152 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4153 [Steve Henson]
4154
4155 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4156 [Steve Henson]
4157
4158 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4159 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4160
4161 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4162 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4163 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4164 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4165 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4166 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4167 rather than being initialized to 1.
4168 [Steve Henson]
4169
4170 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4171
4172 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4173 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4174 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4175
4176 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4177 (CVE-2004-0112)
4178 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4179
4180 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4181 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4182 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4183 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4184 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4185 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4186 [Richard Levitte]
4187
4188 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4189 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4190 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4191 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4192 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4193 for these cases.
4194 [Steve Henson]
4195
4196 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4197 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4198 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4199 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4200 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4201 [Steve Henson]
4202
4203 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4204 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4205 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4206 < 0.9.7.
4207 [Steve Henson]
4208
4209 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4210 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4211
4212 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4213 [Steve Henson]
4214
4215 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4216
4217 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4218
4219 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4220 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4221
4222 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4223
4224 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4225 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4226
4227 [Steve Henson]
4228
4229 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4230 exiting on the first error in a request.
4231 [Steve Henson]
4232
4233 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4234 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4235 specifications.
4236 [Steve Henson]
4237
4238 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4239 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4240 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4241 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4242
4243 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4244 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4245 [Richard Levitte]
4246
4247 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4248 blocks during encryption.
4249 [Richard Levitte]
4250
4251 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4252 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4253 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4254 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4255 certain size.
4256 [Steve Henson]
4257
4258 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4259 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4260 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4261 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4262 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4263 parser.
4264 [Steve Henson]
4265
4266 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4267
4268 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4269 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4270 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4271 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4272 [Bodo Moeller]
4273
4274 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4275 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4276 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4277 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4278 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4279
4280 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4281 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4282 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4283 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4284 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4285 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4286 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4287 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4288 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4289 [Bodo Moeller]
4290
4291 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4292 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4293 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4294 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4295 [Geoff Thorpe]
4296
4297 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4298 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4299 [Ulf Moeller]
4300
4301 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4302
4303 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4304 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4305 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4306 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4307 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4308
4309 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4310 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4311 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4312
4313 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4314 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4315 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4316 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4317 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4318
4319 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4320 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4321 used by default when no-err is given.
4322 [Richard Levitte]
4323
4324 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4325 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4326
4327 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4328 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4329 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4330 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4331 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4332
4333 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4334 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4335 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4336 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4337
4338 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4339
4340 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4341
4342 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4343
4344 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4345 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4346 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4347 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4348 root is omitted).
4349 [Steve Henson]
4350
4351 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4352 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4353
4354 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4355 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4356 [Steve Henson]
4357
4358 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4359 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4360 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4361 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4362 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4363
4364 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4365 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4366 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4367 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4368 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4369 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4370 followup to PR #377.
4371 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4372
4373 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4374 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4375 [Andy Polyakov]
4376
4377 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4378 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4379 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4380 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4381
4382 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4383
4384 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4385 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4386
4387 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4388 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4389 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4390 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4391 client and server.
4392 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4393 PR #377.
4394 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4395
4396 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4397 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4398 removed entirely.
4399 [Richard Levitte]
4400
4401 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4402 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4403 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4404 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4405 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4406 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4407 of libcrypto.
4408 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4409 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4410 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4411 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4412 have to be made anyway).
4413 [Richard Levitte]
4414
4415 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4416 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4417 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4418 [Steve Henson]
4419
4420 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4421 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4422 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4423 [Richard Levitte]
4424
4425 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4426 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4427 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4428
4429 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4430 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4431 edit numbers of the version.
4432 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4433
4434 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4435 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4436 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4437
4438 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4439 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4440
4441 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4442 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4443 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4444
4445 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4446 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4447
4448 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4449 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4450
4451 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4452 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4453
4454 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4455 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4456
4457 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4458 overflows.
4459 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4460
4461 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4462 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4463 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4464
4465 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4466 representations in a platform independent manner.
4467 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4468
4469 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4470 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4471 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4472
4473 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4474 indents.
4475 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4476
4477 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4478 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4479
4480 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4481 full. Fixed.
4482 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4483
4484 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4485 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4486 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4487
4488 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4489 unconditionally).
4490 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4491
4492 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4493 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4494
4495 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4496 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4497
4498 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4499 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4500
4501 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4502 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4503
4504 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4505 CBCParameter.
4506 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4507
4508 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4509 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4510
4511 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4512 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4513
4514 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4515 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4516 exploitable.
4517 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4518
4519 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4520 the 0.9.6 release series:
4521
4522 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4523 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4524 (CVE-2002-0657)
4525 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4526
4527 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4528 [Richard Levitte]
4529
4530 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4531 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4532
4533 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4534 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4535
4536 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4537 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4538 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4539 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4540
4541 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4542 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4543 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4544
4545 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4546 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4547 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4548 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4549
4550 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4551 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4552 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4553 some local tweaks:
4554
4555 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4556 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4557 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4558 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4559 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4560 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4561 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4562 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4563 done
4564
4565 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4566 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4567 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4568 [Richard Levitte]
4569
4570 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4571 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4572 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4573 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4574 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4575
4576 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4577 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4578
4579 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4580 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4581 [Richard Levitte]
4582
4583 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4584 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4585 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4586 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4587 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4588 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4589 [Steve Henson]
4590
4591 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4592 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4593 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4594 [Steve Henson]
4595
4596 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4597 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4598 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4599
4600 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4601 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4602 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4603 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4604 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4605 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4606 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4607 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4608
4609 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4610 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4611 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4612 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4613 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4614 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4615 [Steve Henson]
4616
4617 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4618 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4619 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4620 declaration has been changed from
4621 int (*cb)()
4622 into
4623 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4624 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4625 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4626 has been changed into
4627 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4628
4629 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4630 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4631 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4632
4633 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4634 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4635
4636 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4637 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4638 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4639 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4640 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4641 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4642 always load it have also been added.
4643 [Steve Henson]
4644
4645 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4646 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4647 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4648
4649 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4650
4651 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4652 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4653 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4654
4655 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4656 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4657 command line option can be used to specify an
4658 alternative file.
4659 [Steve Henson]
4660
4661 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4662 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4663 [Steve Henson]
4664
4665 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4666 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4667 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4668 [Steve Henson]
4669
4670 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4671 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4672 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4673 to work with the new engine framework.
4674 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4675
4676 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4677 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4678 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4679 to work with the new engine framework.
4680 [Richard Levitte]
4681
4682 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4683 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4684 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4685
4686 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4687 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4688
4689 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4690 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4691 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4692 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4693 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4694 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4695
4696 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4697 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4698
4699 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4700 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4701
4702 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4703 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4704 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4705 [Ben Laurie]
4706
4707 *) Add new functions
4708 ERR_peek_last_error
4709 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4710 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4711 These are similar to
4712 ERR_peek_error
4713 ERR_peek_error_line
4714 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4715 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4716 still in the error queue.
4717 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4718
4719 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4720 like:
4721 default_algorithms = ALL
4722 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4723 [Steve Henson]
4724
4725 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4726 [Steve Henson]
4727
4728 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4729 [Steve Henson]
4730
4731 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4732 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4733 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4734 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4735
4736 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4737 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4738
4739 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4740 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4741
4742 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4743 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4744 [Bodo Moeller]
4745
4746 *) New functions/macros
4747
4748 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4749 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4750 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4751 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4752
4753 to request calling a callback function
4754
4755 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4756 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4757
4758 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4759 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4760 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4761 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4762 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4763 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4764 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4765 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4766 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4767 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4768
4769 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4770 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4771 [Bodo Moeller]
4772
4773 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4774 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4775 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4776 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4777 the configuration scripts.
4778
4779 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4780 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4781 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4782
4783 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4784 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4785
4786 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4787 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4788 when reusing an existing buffer.
4789 [Bodo Moeller]
4790
4791 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4792 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4793 [Steve Henson]
4794
4795 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4796 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4797 [Ben Laurie]
4798
4799 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4800 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4801 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4802 has the same effect.
4803 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4804
4805 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4806 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4807 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4808 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4809 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4810 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4811 exception.
4812
4813 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4814 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4815 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4816 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4817
4818 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4819 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4820 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4821 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4822
4823 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4824 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4825 won't work.
4826
4827 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4828 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4829 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4830 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4831 default), and then completely removed.
4832 [Richard Levitte]
4833
4834 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4835 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4836 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4837 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4838 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4839 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4840 particular extension is supported.
4841 [Steve Henson]
4842
4843 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4844 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4845 [Steve Henson]
4846
4847 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4848 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4849 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4850 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4851 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4852 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4853 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4854 requires the destination to be valid.
4855
4856 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4857 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
4860 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4861 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4862 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4863 [Bodo Moeller]
4864
4865 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4866 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4867
4868 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4869 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4870 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4871 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4872 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4873 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4874 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4875 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4876 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4877 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4878 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4879 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4880 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4881 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4882 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4883 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4884 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4885 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4886 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4887 the new code.
4888 [Geoff Thorpe]
4889
4890 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4891 [Steve Henson]
4892
4893 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4894 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4895 become part of libeay.num as well.
4896 [Richard Levitte]
4897
4898 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4899 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4900 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4901 false once a handshake has been completed.
4902 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4903 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4904 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4905 client has followed the request.)
4906 [Bodo Moeller]
4907
4908 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4909 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4910 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4911 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4912
4913 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4914 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4915 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4916 [Bodo Moeller]
4917
4918 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4919 [Steve Henson]
4920
4921 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4922 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4923 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4924 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4925
4926 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4927 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4928 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4929
4930 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4931 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4932 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4933 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4934 [Geoff Thorpe]
4935
4936 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4937 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4938 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4939 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4940 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4941 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4942 [Geoff Thorpe]
4943
4944 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4945 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4946 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4947 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4948 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4949 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4950 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4951 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4952 [Geoff Thorpe]
4953
4954 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4955 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4956 [Geoff Thorpe]
4957
4958 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4959 [Ben Laurie]
4960
4961 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4962 md_data void pointer.
4963 [Ben Laurie]
4964
4965 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4966 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4967 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4968 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4969 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4970 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4971 [Ben Laurie]
4972
4973 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4974 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4975 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4976 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4977 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4978 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4979 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4980 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4981 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4982 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4983 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4984 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4985 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4986 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4987 rather than letting it slide.
4988
4989 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4990 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4991 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4992 [Geoff Thorpe]
4993
4994 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4995 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4996 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4997 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4998 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4999 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5000 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5001 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5002 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5003 [Geoff Thorpe]
5004
5005 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5006 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5007 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5008 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5009 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5010
5011 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5012 [Geoff Thorpe]
5013
5014 *) Add EVP test program.
5015 [Ben Laurie]
5016
5017 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5018 [Ben Laurie]
5019
5020 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5021 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5022 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5023 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5024 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5025 [Steve Henson]
5026
5027 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5028 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5029 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5030 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5031 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5032 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5033 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5034
5035 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5036 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5037 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5038 Usage example:
5039
5040 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5041
5042 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5043 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5044 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5045 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5046 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5047
5048 [Ben Laurie]
5049
5050 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5051 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5052 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5053 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5054 anyway): E.g.,
5055
5056 des_key_schedule ks;
5057
5058 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5059 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5060
5061 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5062 [Ben Laurie]
5063
5064 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5065 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5066 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5067 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5068 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5069 functions prevents this.
5070 [Steve Henson]
5071
5072 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5073 [Ben Laurie]
5074
5075 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5076 correct _ecb suffix.
5077 [Ben Laurie]
5078
5079 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5080 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5081 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5082 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5083 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5084 [Steve Henson]
5085
5086 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5087 [Richard Levitte]
5088
5089 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5090 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5091 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5092 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5093
5094 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5095 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5096
5097 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5098 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5099 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5100 via Richard Levitte]
5101
5102 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5103 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5104 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5105 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5106 [Geoff Thorpe]
5107
5108 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5109 Before:
5110 encrypt
5111 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
5112 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
5113 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
5114 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
5115 decrypt
5116 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
5117 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
5118 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
5119 After:
5120 encrypt
5121 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
5122 decrypt
5123 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
5124 [Ben Laurie]
5125
5126 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5127 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5128
5129 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5130 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5131 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5132 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5133 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5134 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5135 [Steve Henson]
5136
5137 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5138 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5139 [Richard Levitte]
5140
5141 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5142 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5143 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5144 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5145
5146 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5147 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5148 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5149 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5150 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5151 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5152 callback.
5153 [Richard Levitte]
5154
5155 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5156 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5157 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5158 and interrupts/cancellations.
5159 [Richard Levitte]
5160
5161 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5162 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5163 [Steve Henson]
5164
5165 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5166 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5167 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5168
5169 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5170 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5171 kind of callback.
5172 [Richard Levitte]
5173
5174 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5175 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5176 than this minimum value is recommended.
5177 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5178
5179 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5180 that are easily reachable.
5181 [Richard Levitte]
5182
5183 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5184 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5185
5186 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5187
5188 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5189 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5190 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5191 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5192 [Steve Henson]
5193
5194 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5195 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5196 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5197 [Steve Henson]
5198
5199 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5200 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5201 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5202 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5203 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5204 internally such as S/MIME.
5205
5206 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5207 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5208 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5209
5210 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5211 applications.
5212 [Steve Henson]
5213
5214 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5215 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5216 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5217 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5218
5219 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5220
5221 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5222
5223 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5224 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5225 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5226 handling.
5227 [Steve Henson]
5228
5229 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5230 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5231 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5232 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5233 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5234 a window system and the like.
5235 [Richard Levitte]
5236
5237 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5238 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5239 [Geoff]
5240
5241 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5242 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5243 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5244 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5245 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5246 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5247 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5248 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5249 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5250 ENGINE structure.
5251 [Geoff]
5252
5253 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5254 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5255 tag cache.
5256 [Steve Henson]
5257
5258 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5259 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5260 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5261 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5262 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5263 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5264 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5265 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5266 [Geoff]
5267
5268 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5269 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5270 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5271 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5272 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5273 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5274 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5275 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5276 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5277 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5278 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5279 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5280 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5281 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5282 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5283 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5284 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5285 [Geoff]
5286
5287 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5288 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5289 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5290 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5291 internal engine_int.h header.
5292 [Geoff]
5293
5294 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5295 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5296 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5297 modify their own ones).
5298 [Geoff]
5299
5300 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5301 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5302 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5303 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5304 later on via ctrl() commands.
5305 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5306 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5307 structural references.
5308 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5309 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5310 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5311 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5312 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5313 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5314 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5315 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5316 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5317 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5318 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5319 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5320 [Geoff]
5321
5322 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5323 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5324 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5325 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5326 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5327 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5328 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5329 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5330 [Bodo Moeller]
5331
5332 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5333 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5334 [Steve Henson]
5335
5336 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5337 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5338 [Steve Henson]
5339
5340 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5341 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5342 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5343 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5344 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5345 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5346 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5347 [Steve Henson]
5348
5349 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5350 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5351 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5352 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5353 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5354
5355 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5356 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5357 generator).
5358 [Bodo Moeller]
5359
5360 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5361
5362 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5363 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5364 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5365
5366 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5367 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5368
5369 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5370 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5371 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5372
5373 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5374 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5375
5376 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5377 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5378
5379 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5380
5381 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5382 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5383 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5384 [Bodo Moeller]
5385
5386 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5387 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5388 [Richard Levitte]
5389
5390 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5391 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5392 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5393 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5394 is 40 of more characters long.
5395 [Steve Henson]
5396
5397 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5398 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5399 pointers.
5400 [Steve Henson]
5401
5402 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5403 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5404 [Bodo Moeller]
5405
5406 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5407 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5408 might.
5409 [Steve Henson]
5410
5411 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5412
5413 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5414 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5415
5416 ASN1 error codes
5417 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5418 ...
5419 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5420 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5421 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5422 ...
5423 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5424 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5425
5426 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5427 [Bodo Moeller]
5428
5429 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5430 suffices.
5431 [Bodo Moeller]
5432
5433 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5434 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5435 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5436 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5437 and
5438 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5439
5440 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5441 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5442
5443 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5444 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5445 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5446 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5447 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5448 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5449
5450 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5451 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5452
5453 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5454 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5455
5456 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5457 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5458
5459 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5460 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5461 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5462 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5463
5464 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5465 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5466
5467 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5468 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5469
5470 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5471 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5472 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5473 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5474 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5475 [Richard Levitte]
5476
5477 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5478 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5479 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5480 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5481 [Steve Henson]
5482
5483 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5484 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5485 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5486 trust settings.
5487 [Steve Henson]
5488
5489 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5490 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5491 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5492 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5493 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5494 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5495 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5496 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5497 ocsp utility.
5498 [Steve Henson]
5499
5500 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5501 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5502 [Steve Henson]
5503
5504 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5505 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5506 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5507 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5508 [Steve Henson]
5509
5510 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5511 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5512 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5513 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5514 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5515 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5516 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5517 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5518 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5519 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5520 [Steve Henson]
5521
5522 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5523 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5524 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5525 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5526 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5527 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5528 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5529 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5530
5531 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5532 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5533 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5534 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5535 [Richard Levitte]
5536
5537 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5538 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5539 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5540 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5541 opensslconf.h.
5542 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5543 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5544 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5545 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5546 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5547 what is available.
5548 [Richard Levitte]
5549
5550 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5551 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5552 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5553 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5554 auto incremented.
5555 [Steve Henson]
5556
5557 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5558 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5559 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5560 [Steve Henson]
5561
5562 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5563 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5564 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5565 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5566 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5567 [Steve Henson]
5568
5569 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5570 [Steve Henson]
5571
5572 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5573 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5574 option to ocsp utility.
5575 [Steve Henson]
5576
5577 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5578 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5579 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5580 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5581 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5582 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5583 the request is nonce-less.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5587 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5588 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5589 [Bodo Moeller]
5590
5591 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5592 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5593 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5594 [Steve Henson]
5595
5596 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5597 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5598 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5599 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5600 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5601 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5602
5603 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5604 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5605 appear to exist.
5606 [Steve Henson]
5607
5608 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5609 additional certificates supplied.
5610 [Steve Henson]
5611
5612 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5613 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5614 signature against.
5615 [Richard Levitte]
5616
5617 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5618 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5619 AES OIDs.
5620
5621 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5622 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5623 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5624 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5625 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5626 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5627 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5628 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5629 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5630
5631 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5632 request to response.
5633 [Steve Henson]
5634
5635 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5636 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5637 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5638 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5639 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5640 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5641 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5642 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5643 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5644 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5645 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5646 [Steve Henson]
5647
5648 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5649 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5650 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5651 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5652 [Steve Henson]
5653
5654 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5655 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5656
5657 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5658 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5659 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5660 [Steve Henson]
5661
5662 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5663 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5664 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5665 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5666 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5667
5668 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5669 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5670 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5671 [Steve Henson]
5672
5673 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5674 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5675 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5676 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5677 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5678 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5679 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5680 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5681
5682 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5683 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5684 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5685 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5686 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5687 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5688 [Steve Henson]
5689
5690 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5691 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5692 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5693 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5694 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5695 printout format cleaned up.
5696 [Steve Henson]
5697
5698 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5699 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5700 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5701 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5702 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5703 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5704 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5705 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5706 [Steve Henson]
5707
5708 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5709 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5710 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5711 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5712 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5713 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5714 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5715 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5716 [Steve Henson]
5717
5718 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5719 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5720 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5721 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5722 section to use.
5723 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5724
5725 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5726 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5727 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5728 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5729 [Steve Henson]
5730
5731 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5732 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5733 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5734 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5735 in the index file.
5736 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5737
5738 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5739 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5740 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5741 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5742
5743 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5744 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5745
5746 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5747 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5748 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5749 [Steve Henson]
5750
5751 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5752 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5753 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5754 [Bodo Moeller]
5755
5756 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5757 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5758 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5759 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5760 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5761 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5762 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5763 functions are provided:
5764
5765 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5766 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5767 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5768 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5769
5770 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5771 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5772 extended allocation function is enabled.
5773 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5774 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5775 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5776
5777 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5778 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5779 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5780 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5781 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5782 [Geoff Thorpe]
5783
5784 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5785 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5786 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5787 be queried.
5788 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5789 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5790 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5791 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5792
5793 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5794 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5795 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5796 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5797 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5798 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5799 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5800 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5801 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5802 [Richard Levitte]
5803
5804 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5805 provide utility functions which an application needing
5806 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5807 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5808 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5809
5810 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5811 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5812 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5813 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5814 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5815 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5816 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5817 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5818 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5819
5820 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5821 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5822 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5823 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5824 [Steve Henson]
5825
5826 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5827 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5828 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5829 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5830 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5831 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5832 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5833 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5834 will be added elsewhere.
5835 [Steve Henson]
5836
5837 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5838 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5839 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5840 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5841 [Steve Henson]
5842
5843 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5844 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5845 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5846 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5847 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5848 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5849 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5850 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5851 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5852 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5853 to produce the required SET OF.
5854 [Steve Henson]
5855
5856 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5857 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5858 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5859 [Richard Levitte]
5860
5861 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5862 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5863 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5864 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5865 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5866 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5867 [Steve Henson]
5868
5869 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5870 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5871 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5872 [Steve Henson]
5873
5874 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5875 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5876 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5877 [Richard Levitte]
5878
5879 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5880 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5881 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5882 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5883 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5884 [Steve Henson]
5885
5886 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5887 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5888 [Steve Henson]
5889
5890 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5891 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5892 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5893 certifcates and CRLs.
5894 [Steve Henson]
5895
5896 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5897 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5898 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5899 [Steve Henson]
5900
5901 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5902 entries for variables.
5903 [Steve Henson]
5904
5905 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5906 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5907 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5908 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5909 [Bodo Moeller]
5910
5911 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5912 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5913 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5914 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5915 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5916 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5917 [Bodo Moeller]
5918
5919 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5920 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5921
5922 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5923 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5924 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5925 [Steve Henson]
5926
5927 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5928 print routines.
5929 [Steve Henson]
5930
5931 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5932 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5933 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5934 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5935 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5936 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5937 [Steve Henson]
5938
5939 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5940 [Steve Henson]
5941
5942 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5943 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5944 for now but they will eventually go away.
5945 [Steve Henson]
5946
5947 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5948 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5949 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5950 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5951 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5952 has also been converted to the new form.
5953 [Steve Henson]
5954
5955 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5956 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5957 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5958 for negative moduli.
5959 [Bodo Moeller]
5960
5961 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5962 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5963 [Bodo Moeller]
5964
5965 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5966 set.
5967 [Bodo Moeller]
5968
5969 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5970 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5971 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5972 type-specific callbacks.
5973 [Geoff Thorpe]
5974
5975 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5976 RFC 2712.
5977 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5978 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5979
5980 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5981 in sections depending on the subject.
5982 [Richard Levitte]
5983
5984 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5985 Windows.
5986 [Richard Levitte]
5987
5988 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5989 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5990 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5991 be handled deterministically).
5992 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5993
5994 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5995 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5996 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5997 [Bodo Moeller]
5998
5999 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6000 [Bodo Moeller]
6001
6002 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6003 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6004 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6005 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6006 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6007 [Bodo Moeller]
6008
6009 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6010 sign of the number in question.
6011
6012 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6013
6014 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6015 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6016 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6017 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6018 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6019 [Bodo Moeller]
6020
6021 *) New function BN_swap.
6022 [Bodo Moeller]
6023
6024 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6025 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6026 results on negative inputs.
6027 [Bodo Moeller]
6028
6029 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6030 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6031 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6032 [Bodo Moeller]
6033
6034 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6035 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6036 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6037 and add new functions:
6038
6039 BN_nnmod
6040 BN_mod_sqr
6041 BN_mod_add
6042 BN_mod_add_quick
6043 BN_mod_sub
6044 BN_mod_sub_quick
6045 BN_mod_lshift1
6046 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6047 BN_mod_lshift
6048 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6049
6050 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6051
6052 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6053 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6054
6055 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6056 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6057 be reduced modulo m.
6058 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6059
6060 #if 0
6061 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6062 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6063 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6064
6065 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6066 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6067 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6068 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6069 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6070 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6071 differing sizes.
6072 [Richard Levitte]
6073 #endif
6074
6075 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6076 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6077 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6078 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6079 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6080
6081 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6082 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6083 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6084 cause any problems.
6085 [Bodo Moeller]
6086
6087 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6088 [Richard Levitte]
6089
6090 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6091 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6092 [Richard Levitte]
6093
6094 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6095 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6096 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6097 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6098 time)
6099 [Richard Levitte]
6100
6101 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6102 [Richard Levitte]
6103
6104 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6105 [Richard Levitte]
6106
6107 *) Add the following functions:
6108
6109 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6110 ENGINE_load_chil()
6111 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6112 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6113 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6114
6115 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6116 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6117 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6118 libraries unless it's really needed.
6119
6120 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6121 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6122 declarations (they differed!).
6123 [Richard Levitte]
6124
6125 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6126 [Richard Levitte]
6127
6128 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6129 [Richard Levitte]
6130
6131 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6132 [Bodo Moeller]
6133
6134 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6135 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6136 [Richard Levitte]
6137
6138 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6139 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6140 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6141
6142 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6143 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6144 [Richard Levitte]
6145
6146 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6147 [Richard Levitte]
6148
6149 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6150 [Richard Levitte]
6151
6152 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6153 [Ben Laurie]
6154
6155 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6156 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6157 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6158
6159 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6160 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6161 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6162 different shared library filenames on each system.
6163 [Geoff Thorpe]
6164
6165 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6166 [Richard Levitte]
6167
6168 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6169 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6170 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6171 of two sections.
6172 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6173
6174 *) NCONF changes.
6175 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6176 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6177 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6178 binary backward compatibility.
6179 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6180 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6181 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6182 LDAP server.
6183 [Richard Levitte]
6184
6185 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6186 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6187 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6188 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6189 this case.
6190 [Steve Henson]
6191
6192 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6193 [Ben Laurie]
6194
6195 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6196 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6197 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6198 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6199 set.
6200 [Steve Henson]
6201
6202 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6203 [Richard Levitte]
6204
6205 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6206
6207 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6208 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6209 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6210
6211 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6212
6213 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6214
6215 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6216 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6217 [Steve Henson]
6218
6219 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6220
6221 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6222
6223 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6224 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6225
6226 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6227 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6228
6229 [Steve Henson]
6230
6231 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6232 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6233 specifications.
6234 [Steve Henson]
6235
6236 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6237 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6238 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6239 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6240
6241 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6242 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6243 [Richard Levitte]
6244
6245 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6246
6247 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6248 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6249 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6250 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6251 [Bodo Moeller]
6252
6253 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6254 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6255 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6256 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6257 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6258
6259 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6260 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6261 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6262 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6263 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6264 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6265 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6266 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6267 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6268 [Bodo Moeller]
6269
6270 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6271
6272 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6273 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6274 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6275 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6276 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6277
6278 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6279 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6280 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6281
6282 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6283
6284 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6285 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6286 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6287 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6288 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6289 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6290 [Geoff Thorpe]
6291
6292 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6293 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6294 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6295 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6296 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6297 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6298
6299 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6300 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6301 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6302
6303 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6304 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6305 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6306 EVP_cleanup().
6307 [Richard Levitte]
6308
6309 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6310 being properly terminated.
6311 [Richard Levitte]
6312
6313 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6314 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6315 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6316 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6317
6318 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6319 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6320 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6321 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6322 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6323 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6324 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6325 change.
6326 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6327
6328 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6329 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6330 [Bodo Moeller]
6331
6332 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6333 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6334 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6335 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6336 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6337 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6338 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6339 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6340
6341 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6342 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6343 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6344 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6345 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6346
6347 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6348 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6349 [Steve Henson]
6350
6351 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6352
6353 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6354 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6355 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6356
6357 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6358
6359 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6360 and get fix the header length calculation.
6361 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6362 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6363 Steve Henson]
6364
6365 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6366 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6367 assertions could call abort()).
6368 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6369
6370 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6371
6372 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6373 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6374 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6375 supplied buffer.
6376 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6377
6378 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6379 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6380 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6381 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6382
6383 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6384 [Nils Larsch]
6385
6386 *) New option
6387 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6388 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6389 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6390
6391 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6392 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6393 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6394 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6395 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6396 applications.
6397 [Bodo Moeller]
6398
6399 *) Changes in security patch:
6400
6401 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6402 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6403 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6404 F30602-01-2-0537.
6405
6406 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6407 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6408 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6409 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6410 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6411
6412 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6413 happen in practice.
6414 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6415
6416 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6417 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6418 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6419
6420 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6421 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6422 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6423
6424 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6425 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6426 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6427
6428 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6429
6430 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6431 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6432 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6433
6434 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6435 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6436
6437 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6438 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6439 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6440 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6441 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6442 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6443 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6444
6445 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6446 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6447 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6448 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6449 [Bodo Moeller]
6450
6451 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6452 [Bodo Moeller]
6453
6454 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6455 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6456 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6457 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6458 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6459 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6460
6461 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6462 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6463 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6464 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6465 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6466 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6467
6468 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6469 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6470 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6471 BN_generate_prime().)
6472
6473 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6474 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6475 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6476 better.
6477 [Bodo Moeller]
6478
6479 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6480 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6481 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6482
6483 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6484 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6485 when using non-blocking I/O.
6486 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6487
6488 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6489 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6490
6491 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6492 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6493 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6494
6495 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6496 configuration for the versions before that.
6497 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6498
6499 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6500 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6501 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6502 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6503 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6504
6505 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6506 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6507 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6508 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6509
6510 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6511 value is 0.
6512 [Richard Levitte]
6513
6514 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6515 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6516 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6517
6518 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6519 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6520
6521 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6522 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6523 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6524 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6525 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6526 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6527 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6528 session cache.
6529
6530 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6531 using a local variable.
6532 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6533
6534 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6535 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6536 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6537
6538 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6539 [Richard Levitte]
6540
6541 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6542 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6543
6544 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6545 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6546 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6547
6548 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6549
6550 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6551 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6552 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6553 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6554 [Bodo Moeller]
6555
6556 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6557 present.
6558 [Steve Henson]
6559
6560 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6561 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6562 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6563 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6564 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6565
6566 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6567 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6568 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6569
6570 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6571 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6572 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6573
6574 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6575 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6576 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6577 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6578
6579 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6580 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6581 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6582 modules).
6583 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6584
6585 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6586 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6587 from 0.9.7.
6588 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6589
6590 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6591 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6592 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6593 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6594
6595 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6596 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6597 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6598 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6599
6600 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6601 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6602
6603 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6604 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6605 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6606 [Bodo Moeller]
6607
6608 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6609 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6610 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6611 become invalid.
6612 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6613
6614 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6615 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6616 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6617 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6618 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6619 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6620 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6621 [Bodo Moeller]
6622
6623 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6624 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6625 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6626 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6627
6628 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6629 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6630 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6631 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6632 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6633 the client will at least see that alert.
6634 [Bodo Moeller]
6635
6636 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6637 correctly.
6638 [Bodo Moeller]
6639
6640 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6641 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6642 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6643
6644 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6645 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6646 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6647 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6648 HelloRequest.
6649
6650 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6651 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6652 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6653
6654 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6655 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6656 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6657 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6658 may leak via logfiles.)
6659
6660 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6661 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6662 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6663 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6664 the legal range.
6665 [Bodo Moeller]
6666
6667 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6668 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6669 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6670
6671 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6672 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6673 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6674 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6675 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6676 [Bodo Moeller]
6677
6678 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6679 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6680
6681 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6682 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6683 followed by modular reduction.
6684 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6685
6686 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6687 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6688 [Bodo Moeller]
6689
6690 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6691 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6692 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6693 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6694 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6695
6696 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6697 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6698
6699 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6700 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6701 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6702
6703 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6704 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6705 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6706 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6707 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6708 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6709 automatically.
6710 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6711
6712 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6713 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6714 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6715 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6716 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6717
6718 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6719 [Andy Polyakov]
6720
6721 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6722 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6723 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6724 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6725 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6726 to allow the necessary settings.
6727 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6728
6729 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6730 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6731 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6732 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6733 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6734
6735 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6736 dh->length and always used
6737
6738 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6739
6740 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6741 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6742 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6743 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6744 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6745 dh->length.
6746
6747 So switch back to
6748
6749 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6750
6751 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6752 otherwise.
6753 [Bodo Moeller]
6754
6755 *) In
6756
6757 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6758 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6759 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6760 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6761
6762 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6763 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6764 always reject numbers >= n.
6765 [Bodo Moeller]
6766
6767 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6768 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6769 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6770 variable) is not atomic.
6771 [Bodo Moeller]
6772
6773 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6774 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6775 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6776 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6777
6778 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6779 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6780
6781 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6782 little-endian MIPS.
6783 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6784
6785 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6786 [Richard Levitte]
6787
6788 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6789
6790 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6791 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6792 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6793 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6794 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6795 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6796 to traverse all of 'state'.
6797
6798 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6799 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6800 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6801
6802 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6803 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6804
6805 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6806 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6807 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6808 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6809 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6810 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6811 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6812 further strengthens the PRNG.
6813 [Bodo Moeller]
6814
6815 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6816 [Andy Polyakov]
6817
6818 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6819 an error message in this case.
6820 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6821
6822 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6823 [Steve Henson]
6824
6825 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6826 positive and less than q.
6827 [Bodo Moeller]
6828
6829 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6830 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6831 that itself.
6832 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6833
6834 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6835 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6836 [Bodo Moeller]
6837
6838 *) Fix OAEP check.
6839 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6840
6841 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6842 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6843 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6844 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6845 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6846 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6847 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6848 paper.)
6849
6850 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6851 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6852 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6853 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6854
6855 Both problems are now fixed.
6856 [Bodo Moeller]
6857
6858 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6859 (previously it was 1024).
6860 [Bodo Moeller]
6861
6862 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6863 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6864 [Steve Henson]
6865
6866 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6867 [Steve Henson]
6868
6869 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6870 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6871 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6875 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6876 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6877 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6878 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6879 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6880 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6881 environment variables.
6882
6883 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6884 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6885 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6886 [Bodo Moeller]
6887
6888 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6889 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6890 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6891 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6892 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6893 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6894 [Bodo Moeller]
6895
6896 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6897 versions of 'test'.
6898 [Bodo Moeller]
6899
6900 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6901
6902 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6903 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6904
6905 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6906 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6907 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6908 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6909 CygWin.
6910 [Richard Levitte]
6911
6912 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6913 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6914 amount of data available.
6915 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6916 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6917
6918 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6919 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6920 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6921 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6922 [Bodo Moeller]
6923
6924 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6925 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6926 and UnixWare.
6927 [Richard Levitte]
6928
6929 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6930 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6931 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6932 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6933 [Ulf Moeller]
6934
6935 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6936 [Andy Polyakov]
6937
6938 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6939 [Richard Levitte]
6940
6941 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6942 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6943 [Steve Henson]
6944 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6945
6946 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6947 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6948 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6949 (but broken) behaviour.
6950 [Steve Henson]
6951
6952 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6953 it when found.
6954 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6955
6956 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6957 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6958 [Bodo Moeller]
6959
6960 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6961 did not exist.
6962 [Bodo Moeller]
6963
6964 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6965 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6966
6967 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6968 [Richard Levitte]
6969
6970 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6971 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6972 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6973
6974 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6975 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6976 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6977 [Steve Henson]
6978
6979 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6980 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6981 [Ulf Moeller]
6982
6983 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6984 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6985
6986 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6987
6988 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6989
6990 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6991 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6992 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6993 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6994 [Bodo Moeller]
6995
6996 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6997 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6998
6999 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7000 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7001 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7002
7003 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7004 was empty.
7005 [Steve Henson]
7006 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7007
7008 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7009 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7010 but the code is actually correct.
7011 [Steve Henson]
7012
7013 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7014 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7015 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7016 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7017 and leaves the highest bit random.
7018 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7019
7020 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7021 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7022 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7023 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7024 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7025 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7026 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7027 [Bodo Moeller]
7028
7029 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7030 [Ulf Moeller]
7031
7032 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7033 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7034 [Steve Henson]
7035
7036 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7037 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7038 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7039 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7040 headers.
7041 [Richard Levitte]
7042
7043 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7044 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7045 and break the signature.
7046 [Steve Henson]
7047 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7048
7049 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7050 DH ciphersuites.
7051 [Steve Henson]
7052
7053 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7054 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7055 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7056 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7057 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7058 [Bodo Moeller]
7059
7060 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7061 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7062
7063 *) ./config script fixes.
7064 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7065
7066 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7067 [Bodo Moeller]
7068
7069 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7070 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7071 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7072 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7073 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7074
7075 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7076 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7077 [Bodo Moeller]
7078
7079 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7080 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7081 [Steve Henson]
7082
7083 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7084 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7085 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7086 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7087
7088 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7089 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7090
7091 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7092 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7093 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7094 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7095 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7096
7097 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7098 [Bodo Moeller]
7099
7100 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7101 [Ulf Möller]
7102
7103 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7104 [Ulf Möller]
7105
7106 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7107 [Bodo Moeller]
7108
7109 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7110 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7111 [Bodo Moeller]
7112
7113 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7114 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7115 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7116 result of the server certificate verification.)
7117 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7118
7119 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7120 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7121 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7122 [Bodo Moeller]
7123
7124 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7125 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7126 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7127 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7128 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7129 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7130 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7131 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7132 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7133 [Bodo Moeller]
7134
7135 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7136 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7137 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7138 happening the other way round.
7139 [Geoff Thorpe]
7140
7141 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7142 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7143 [Bodo Moeller]
7144
7145 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7146 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7147 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7148 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7149 [Richard Levitte]
7150
7151 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7152 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7153
7154 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7155
7156 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7157 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7158 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7159 that.
7160
7161 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7162
7163 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7164
7165 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7166 static ones.
7167 [Richard Levitte]
7168
7169 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7170
7171 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7172 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7173 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7174 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7175 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7176
7177 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7178 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7179 matter what.
7180 [Richard Levitte]
7181
7182 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7183 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7184
7185 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7186
7187 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7188 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7189 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7190 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7191 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7192 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7193 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7194 by the Finished messages.
7195 [Bodo Moeller]
7196
7197 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7198 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7199
7200 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7201 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7202 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7203 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7204 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7205 appropriately.
7206 [Steve Henson]
7207
7208 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7209 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7210 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7211 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7212 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7213 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7214 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7215 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7216 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7217 together.
7218 [Steve Henson]
7219
7220 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7221 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7222 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7223 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7224
7225 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7226 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7227 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7228 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7229 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7230 the answer.
7231
7232 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7233 been tested well enough.
7234 [Richard Levitte]
7235
7236 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7237 it can return incorrect results.
7238 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7239 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7240 [Bodo Moeller]
7241
7242 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7243 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7244 include zero length content when signing messages.
7245 [Steve Henson]
7246
7247 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7248 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7249 [Bodo Möller]
7250
7251 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7252 [Richard Levitte]
7253
7254 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7255 wrong sign.
7256 [Ulf Möller]
7257
7258 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7259 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7260 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7261 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7262 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7263 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7264 [Richard Levitte]
7265
7266 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7267 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7268
7269 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7270 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7271
7272 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7273 random number < q in the DSA library.
7274 [Ulf Möller]
7275
7276 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7277 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7278 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7279 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7280 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7281 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7282 just makes things more complicated.)
7283 [Bodo Moeller]
7284
7285 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7286 from EGD.
7287 [Ben Laurie]
7288
7289 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7290 work better on such systems.
7291 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7292
7293 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7294 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7295 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7296 [Steve Henson]
7297
7298 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7299 if there was more than one signature.
7300 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7301
7302 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7303 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7304 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7305 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7306 [Richard Levitte]
7307
7308 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7309 rather than always using the current time.
7310 [Steve Henson]
7311
7312 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7313 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7314 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7315 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7316 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7317 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7318
7319 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7320 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7321
7322 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7323
7324 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7325 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7326 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7327 the same hash value.
7328
7329 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7330 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7331 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7332 with X509_STORE internally.
7333
7334 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7335 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7336
7337 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7338 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7339 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7340 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7341 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7342 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7343 entirely (maybe later...).
7344
7345 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7346
7347 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7348 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7349 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7350 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7351 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7352 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7353 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7354 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7355
7356 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7357 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7358
7359 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7360 to customise the verify behaviour.
7361 [Steve Henson]
7362
7363 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7364 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7365 [Steve Henson]
7366
7367 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7368 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7369 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7370 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7371 request is improperly encoded.
7372 [Steve Henson]
7373
7374 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7375 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7376 BIO_write(b, ...).
7377
7378 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7379 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7380
7381 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7382 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7383 words set to zero.)
7384 [Bodo Moeller]
7385
7386 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7387 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7388 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7389 [Bodo Moeller]
7390
7391 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7392 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7393 BIO/fp routines also added.
7394 [Steve Henson]
7395
7396 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7397 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7398
7399 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7400 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7401 demos/state_machine.
7402 [Ben Laurie]
7403
7404 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7405 generation and verification.
7406 [Steve Henson]
7407
7408 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7409 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7410 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7411 encode and decode it manually.
7412 [Steve Henson]
7413
7414 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7415 compile under VC++.
7416 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7417
7418 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7419 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7420 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7421 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7422
7423 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7424 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7425 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7426 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7427 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7428 [Steve Henson]
7429
7430 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7431 [Richard Levitte]
7432
7433 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7434 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7435 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7436
7437 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7438 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7439 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7440 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7441 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7442 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7443 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7444 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7445
7446 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7447 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7448
7449 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7450
7451 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7452 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7453 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7454
7455 [Richard Levitte]
7456
7457 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7458 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7459 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7460 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7461 [Richard Levitte]
7462
7463 *) MD4 implemented.
7464 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7465
7466 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7467 [Richard Levitte]
7468
7469 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7470 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7471 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7472 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7473 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7474 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7475 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7476 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7477 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7478 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7479 short or long names are found.
7480 [Steve Henson]
7481
7482 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7483 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7484
7485 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7486 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7487 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7488 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7489
7490 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7491 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7492 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7493 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7494 [Bodo Moeller]
7495
7496 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7497 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7498 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7499 [Richard Levitte]
7500
7501 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7502 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7503 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7504 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7505 to allow the various flags to be set.
7506 [Steve Henson]
7507
7508 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7509 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7510 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7511 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7512 dates to be checked.
7513 [Steve Henson]
7514
7515 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7516 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7517 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7518 [Steve Henson]
7519
7520 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7521 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7522 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7523 [Steve Henson]
7524
7525 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7526 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7527 [Bodo Moeller]
7528
7529 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7530 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7531 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7532 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7533 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7534 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7535 [Richard Levitte]
7536
7537 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7538 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7539 Random Numbers.
7540 [Ulf Möller]
7541
7542 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7543 DSA key.
7544 [Steve Henson]
7545
7546 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7547 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7548 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7549 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7550 form signing output easier to verify.
7551 [Steve Henson]
7552
7553 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7554 [Steve Henson]
7555
7556 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7557 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7558 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7559 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7560 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7561 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7562 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7563 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7564 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7565 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7566 [Steve Henson]
7567
7568 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7569
7570 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7571 the syntax given in objects.README.
7572 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7573 obj_mac.h.
7574 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7575 obj_mac.h.
7576
7577 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7578 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7579 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7580 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7581 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7582 consistent name changes.
7583 [Richard Levitte]
7584
7585 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7586 [Bodo Moeller]
7587
7588 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7589 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7590 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7591 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7592 [Richard Levitte]
7593
7594 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7595 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7596 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7597 of safestack.h .
7598 [Steve Henson]
7599
7600 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7601 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7602 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7603 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7604 [Steve Henson]
7605
7606 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7607 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7608 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7609 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7610 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7611 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7612 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7613 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7614 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7615 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7616 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7617 [Steve Henson]
7618
7619 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7620 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7621 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7622 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7623 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7624 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7625 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7626 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7627 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7628 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7629 [Steve Henson]
7630
7631 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7632 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7633 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7634 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7635
7636 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7637 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7638 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7639 omit any duplicate addresses.
7640 [Steve Henson]
7641
7642 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7643 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7644 [Bodo Moeller]
7645
7646 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7647 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7648 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7649 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7650 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7651 [Bodo Moeller]
7652
7653 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7654 software:
7655 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7656 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7657 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7658 Free => OPENSSL_free
7659 [Richard Levitte]
7660
7661 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7662 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7663 [Bodo Moeller]
7664
7665 *) CygWin32 support.
7666 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7667
7668 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7669 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7670 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7671 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7672 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7673 approach.
7674 [Geoff Thorpe]
7675
7676 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7677 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7678 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7679 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7680 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7681 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7682 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7683 [Geoff Thorpe]
7684
7685 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7686 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7687 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7688 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7689 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7690 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7691 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7692 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7693 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7694 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7695 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7696 [Bodo Moeller]
7697
7698 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7699 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7700 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7701 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7702 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7703
7704 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7705 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7706 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7707 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7708 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7709
7710 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7711 ciphers.
7712
7713 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7714 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7715 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7716 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7717
7718 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7719
7720 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7721 of macros.
7722
7723 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7724 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7725 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7726 flags.
7727
7728 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7729 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7730 any installed hardware versions can.
7731 [Steve Henson]
7732
7733 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7734 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7735 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7736 number.
7737 [Bodo Moeller]
7738
7739 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7740 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7741 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7742 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7743 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7744
7745 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7746 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7747 [Steve Henson]
7748
7749 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7750 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7751 [Richard Levitte]
7752
7753 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7754 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7755 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7756 features.
7757 [Steve Henson]
7758
7759 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7760 [Ulf Möller]
7761
7762 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7763 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7764 but no ssl client purpose.
7765 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7766
7767 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7768 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7769 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7770 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7771 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7772 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7773 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7774 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7775 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7776 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7777 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7778 [Steve Henson]
7779
7780 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7781 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7782 be obtained from the error queue.
7783 [Bodo Moeller]
7784
7785 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7786 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7787 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7788 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7789 [Bodo Moeller]
7790
7791 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7792 [Ulf Möller]
7793
7794 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7795 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7796 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7797 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7798 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7799 [Geoff Thorpe]
7800
7801 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7802 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7803 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7804 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7805 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7806 [Geoff Thorpe]
7807
7808 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7809 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7810 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7811 may not be NULL.
7812 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7813
7814 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7815 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7816 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7817 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7818 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7819 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7820 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7821 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7822 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7823 or "the configuration storage API"...
7824
7825 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7826
7827 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7828 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7829
7830 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7831
7832 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7833
7834 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7835 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7836 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7837 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7838 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7839 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7840 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7841
7842 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7843 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7844 [Richard Levitte]
7845
7846 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7847 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7848 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7849 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7850 [Bodo Moeller]
7851
7852 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7853 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7854 them in a portable way.
7855 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7856
7857 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7858
7859 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7860
7861 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7862 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7863
7864 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7865 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7866 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7867 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7868
7869 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7870 was larger than the MD block size.
7871 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7872
7873 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7874 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7875 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7876 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7877 components.
7878 [Steve Henson]
7879
7880 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7881 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7882 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7883
7884 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7885 discouraged.
7886 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7887
7888 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7889 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7890 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7891 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7892 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7893 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7894
7895 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7896 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7897
7898 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7899 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7900 [Bodo Moeller]
7901
7902 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7903 [Bodo Moeller]
7904
7905 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7906 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7907 its own key.
7908 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7909 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7910 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7911 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7912 [Bodo Moeller]
7913
7914 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7915 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7916 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7917 does not suppress any output.
7918 [Richard Levitte]
7919
7920 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7921 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7922 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7923 with all the associated security issues.
7924
7925 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7926 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7927 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7928 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7929 use the value in the default purpose.
7930 [Steve Henson]
7931
7932 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7933 and fix a memory leak.
7934 [Steve Henson]
7935
7936 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7937 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7938 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7939 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7940 [Bodo Moeller]
7941
7942 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7943 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7944 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7945 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7946 [Bodo Moeller]
7947
7948 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7949 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7950 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7951 [Bodo Moeller]
7952
7953 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7954 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7955 [Bodo Moeller]
7956
7957 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7958 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7959 which was free.
7960 [Steve Henson]
7961
7962 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7963 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7964 [Bodo Moeller]
7965
7966 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7967 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7968 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7969 [Bodo Moeller]
7970
7971 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7972 number generation fails.
7973 [Bodo Moeller]
7974
7975 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7976 [Bodo Moeller]
7977
7978 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7979 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7980
7981 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7982 [Ulf Möller]
7983
7984 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7985 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7986
7987 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7988 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7989
7990 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7991
7992 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7993 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7994 [Steve Henson]
7995
7996 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7997 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7998
7999 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8000 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8001 [Ulf Möller]
8002
8003 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8004 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8005 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8006 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8007 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8008 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8009
8010 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8011 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8012 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8013 for example.
8014 [Steve Henson]
8015
8016 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8017 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8018 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8019 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8020 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8021 counter, some don't.)
8022 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8023 counters or duplicate objects.
8024 [Steve Henson]
8025
8026 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8027 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8028 [Steve Henson]
8029
8030 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8031 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8032 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8033
8034 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8035 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8036 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8037 or -rand.
8038 [Ulf Möller]
8039
8040 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8041 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8042 [Steve Henson]
8043
8044 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8045 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8046 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8047 cipher list.
8048 [Steve Henson]
8049
8050 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8051 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8052 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8053 [Steve Henson]
8054
8055 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8056 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8057 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8058 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8059 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8060 should work without changes.
8061 [Richard Levitte]
8062
8063 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8064 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8065 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8066 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8067 must be defined. E.g.,
8068 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8069 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8070 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8071 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8072
8073 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8074 record layer.
8075 [Bodo Moeller]
8076
8077 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8078 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8079 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8080 [Steve Henson]
8081
8082 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8083 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8084 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8085 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8086 [Steve Henson]
8087
8088 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8089 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8090 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8091 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8092 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8093 is prompted for as usual.
8094 [Steve Henson]
8095
8096 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8097 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8098 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8099 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8100
8101 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8102 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8103 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8104 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8105 [Steve Henson]
8106
8107 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8108 [Andy Polyakov]
8109
8110 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8111 of seed file.
8112 [Steve Henson]
8113
8114 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8115 [Bodo Moeller]
8116
8117 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8118 [Steve Henson]
8119
8120 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8121 bits.
8122 [Ulf Möller]
8123
8124 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8125 [Ulf Möller]
8126
8127 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8128 [Andy Polyakov]
8129
8130 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8131 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8132 [Ulf Möller]
8133
8134 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8135 options to produce them.
8136 [Steve Henson]
8137
8138 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8139 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8140 [Ulf Möller]
8141
8142 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8143 for p == 0.
8144 [Ulf Möller]
8145
8146 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8147 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8148 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8149 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8150 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8151 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8152 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8153 [Steve Henson]
8154
8155 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8156 [Steve Henson]
8157
8158 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8159 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8160 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8161 [Bodo Moeller]
8162
8163 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8164 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8165
8166 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8167 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8168 [Ulf Möller]
8169
8170 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8171 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8172 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8173 has already seen).
8174 [Bodo Moeller]
8175
8176 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8177 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8178
8179 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8180 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8181 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8182 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8183 generation becomes much faster.
8184
8185 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8186 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8187 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8188 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8189 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8190 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8191 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8192 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8193 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8194 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8195 [Bodo Moeller]
8196
8197 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8198 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8199 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8200 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8201 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8202 trial division stage.
8203 [Bodo Moeller]
8204
8205 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8206 as ASN1_TIME.
8207 [Steve Henson]
8208
8209 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8213 [Ulf Möller]
8214
8215 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8216 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8217 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8218 the comments.
8219 [Ulf Möller]
8220
8221 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8222 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8223 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8224 [Bodo Moeller]
8225
8226 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8227 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8228 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8229 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8230
8231 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8232 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8233 [Steve Henson]
8234
8235 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8236 [Ulf Möller]
8237
8238 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8239 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8240 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8241 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8242 [Ulf Möller]
8243
8244 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8245 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8246 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8247 [Ulf Möller]
8248
8249 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8250 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8251 (instead of parameters) in future.
8252 [Steve Henson]
8253
8254 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8255 when a new cipher list is set.
8256 [Steve Henson]
8257
8258 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8259 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8260 wrong.
8261
8262 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8263 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8264 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8265
8266 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8267 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8268 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8269 an error is flagged.
8270
8271 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8272 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8273 the readability was also increased :-)
8274 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8275
8276 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8277 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8278 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8279 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8280 as the root CA.
8281 [Steve Henson]
8282
8283 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8284 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8285 [Steve Henson]
8286
8287 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8288 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8289 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8290 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8291 instead.
8292
8293 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8294 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8295 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8296 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8297 because they handle more complex structures.)
8298 [Steve Henson]
8299
8300 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8301 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8302 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8303 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8304
8305 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8306 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8307 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8308 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8309 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8310 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8311 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8312 [Ulf Möller]
8313
8314 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8315 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8316 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8317 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8318 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8319 [Bodo Moeller]
8320
8321 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8322 [Bodo Moeller]
8323
8324 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8325 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8326 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8327 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8328 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8329 to use this.
8330
8331 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8332 code.
8333 [Steve Henson]
8334
8335 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8336 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8337 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8338 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8339 [Steve Henson]
8340
8341 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8342 [Ulf Möller]
8343
8344 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8345 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8346 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8347 international characters are used.
8348
8349 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8350 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8351 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8352 in ASN1 order.
8353 [Steve Henson]
8354
8355 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8356 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8357 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8358 request.
8359
8360 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8361 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8362 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8363 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8364 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8365 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8366
8367 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8368 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8369 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8370 be handled by the string table functions.
8371
8372 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8373 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8374 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8375 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8376 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8377 types at all.
8378 [Steve Henson]
8379
8380 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8381 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8382 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8383 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8384 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8385
8386 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8387 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8388 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8389 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8390 [Bodo Moeller]
8391
8392 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8393 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8394 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8395 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8396 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8397 SHA1.
8398 [Andy Polyakov]
8399
8400 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8401 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8402 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8403 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8404 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8405 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8406 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8407 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8408
8409 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8410 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8411 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8412 [Steve Henson]
8413
8414 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8415 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8416 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8417 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8418 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8419 support to pkcs8 application.
8420 [Steve Henson]
8421
8422 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8423 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8424 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8425 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8426 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8427 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8428 [Bodo Moeller]
8429
8430 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8431 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8432 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8433 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8434 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8435 consistency.
8436 [Bodo Moeller]
8437
8438 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8439 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8440 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8441 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8442 example.
8443 [Steve Henson]
8444
8445 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8446 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8447 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8448 and any application specific purposes.
8449
8450 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8451 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8452 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8453 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8454 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8455 if the certificate is self signed.
8456 [Steve Henson]
8457
8458 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8459 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8460 [Steve Henson]
8461
8462 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8463 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8464 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8465 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8466 [Steve Henson]
8467
8468 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8469 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8470 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8471 Update documentation.
8472 [Steve Henson]
8473
8474 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8475 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8476 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8477 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8478 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8479 [Steve Henson]
8480
8481 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8482 for details.
8483 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8484
8485 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8486 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8487 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8488 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8489 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8490 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8491 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8492 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8493 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8494 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8495
8496 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8497
8498 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8499 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8500 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8501 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8502 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8503
8504 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8505 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8506 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8507 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8508 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8509 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8510 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8511 request additional information:
8512 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8513 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8514
8515 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8516 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8517 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8518 options.
8519
8520 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8521 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8522
8523 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8524 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8525 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8526
8527 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8528 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8529
8530 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8531 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8532 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8533 algorithm.
8534 [Steve Henson]
8535
8536 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8537 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8538 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8539
8540 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8541 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8542 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8543 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8544 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8545 included in OpenSSL.
8546 [Steve Henson]
8547
8548 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8549 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8550 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8551 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8552 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8553 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8554 [Bodo Moeller]
8555
8556 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8557 PKCS12 structure.
8558 [Steve Henson]
8559
8560 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8561 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8562 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8563 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8564 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8565 structure.
8566 [Steve Henson]
8567
8568 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8569 need initialising.
8570 [Steve Henson]
8571
8572 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8573 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8574 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8575 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8576 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8577 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8578 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8579 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8580 be maintained manually.
8581
8582 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8583 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8584 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8585 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8586 work because people forget to call this function]
8587 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8588 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8589 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8590 [Steve Henson]
8591
8592 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8593 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8594 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8595 should be discouraged from doing it.
8596 [Ben Laurie]
8597
8598 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8599 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8600 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8601 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8602 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8603 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8604 [Steve Henson]
8605
8606 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8607 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8608 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8609
8610 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8611 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8612 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8613
8614 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8615 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8616 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8617 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8618 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8619 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8620
8621 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8622 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8623 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8624
8625 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8626 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8627 and vice versa.
8628
8629 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8630 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8631 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8632 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8633 [Steve Henson]
8634
8635 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8636 [Steve Henson]
8637
8638 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8639 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8640 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8641 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8642 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8643 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8644 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8645 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8646 keys so we should be OK.
8647
8648 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8649 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8650 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8651 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8652 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8653 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8654 stay in the name of compatibility.
8655
8656 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8657 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8658 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8659
8660 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8661 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8662 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8663 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8664 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8665 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8666 supplied key).
8667 [Steve Henson]
8668
8669 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8670 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8671 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8672 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8673 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8674 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8675 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8676 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8677 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8678 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8679 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8680 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8681 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8682 [Steve Henson]
8683
8684 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8685 [Steve Henson]
8686
8687 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8688 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8689 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8690 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8691 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8692 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8693 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8694 openssl verify ss.pem
8695 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8696 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8697 is OK.
8698 [Steve Henson]
8699
8700 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8701 (and add it to external session representation).
8702 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8703 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8704 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8705 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8706 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8707 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8708 security holes.
8709 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8710
8711 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8712 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8713 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8714 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8715
8716 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8717 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8718 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8719 [Steve Henson]
8720
8721 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8722 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8723 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8724 code.
8725 [Steve Henson]
8726
8727 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8728 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8729 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8730
8731 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8732 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8733 certificate auxiliary information.
8734 [Steve Henson]
8735
8736 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8737 the 'enc' command.
8738 [Steve Henson]
8739
8740 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8741 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8742 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8743 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8744 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8745 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8746 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8747 [Richard Levitte]
8748
8749 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8750 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8751 [Steve Henson]
8752
8753 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8754 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8755 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8756 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8757 [Steve Henson]
8758
8759 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8760 [Steve Henson]
8761
8762 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8763 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8764 [Steve Henson]
8765
8766 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8767 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8768 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8769 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8770 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8771 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8772 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8773 using the new 'x509' options.
8774
8775 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8776 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8777 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8778 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8779 for all purposes.
8780 [Steve Henson]
8781
8782 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8783 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8784 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8785 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8786 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8787 [Mark Cox]
8788
8789 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8790 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8791 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8792 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8793 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8794 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8795 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8796 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8797 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8798 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8799 [Steve Henson]
8800
8801 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8802 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8803 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8804 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8805 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8806 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8807 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8808 [Steve Henson]
8809
8810 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8811 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8812 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8813 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8814 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8815 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8816 openssl.cnf for more info.
8817 [Steve Henson]
8818
8819 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8820 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8821 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8822 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8823 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8824 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8825 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8826 md should be large enough anyway.
8827 [Bodo Moeller]
8828
8829 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8830 for handling the random seed file.
8831
8832 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8833 ca,
8834 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8835 s_client,
8836 s_server,
8837 x509 (when signing).
8838 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8839 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8840 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8841
8842 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8843 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8844 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8845 that support '-rand'.
8846 [Bodo Moeller]
8847
8848 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8849 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8850 [Bodo Moeller]
8851
8852 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8853 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8854 [Bill Perry]
8855
8856 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8857 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8858 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8859 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8860 is suitable.
8861 [Steve Henson]
8862
8863 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8864 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8865 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8866 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8867 [Steve Henson]
8868
8869 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8870 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8871 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8872 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8873 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8874 print out all the purposes.
8875 [Steve Henson]
8876
8877 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8878 functions.
8879 [Steve Henson]
8880
8881 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8882 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8883 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8884 single function call.
8885 [Steve Henson]
8886
8887 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8888 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8889 [Andy Polyakov]
8890
8891 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8892 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8893 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8894 [Steve Henson]
8895
8896 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8897 when producing the local key id.
8898 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8899
8900 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8901 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8902 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8903 "server.pem".
8904 [Steve Henson]
8905
8906 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8907 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8908 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8909 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8910 [Steve Henson]
8911
8912 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8913 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8914 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8915 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8916
8917 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8918 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8919 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8920 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8921
8922 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8923 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8924 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8925 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8926 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8927 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8928 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8929 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8930 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8931 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8932 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8933 trivial: move one line.
8934 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8935
8936 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8937 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8938 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8939 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8940 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8941 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8942 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8943 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8944 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8945 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8946 with an event loop for example.
8947 [Steve Henson]
8948
8949 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8950 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8951 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8952 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8953 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8954 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8955 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8956 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8957 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8958 [Steve Henson]
8959
8960 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8961 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8962 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8963 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8964 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8965 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8966 [Steve Henson]
8967
8968 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8969 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8970 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8971 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8972
8973 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8974 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8975 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8976 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8977 key generation.
8978 [Steve Henson]
8979
8980 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8981 (still largely untested)
8982 [Bodo Moeller]
8983
8984 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8985 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8986 [Steve Henson]
8987
8988 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8989 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8990 [Steve Henson]
8991
8992 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8993 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8994 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8995 [Bodo Moeller]
8996
8997 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8998 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8999 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9000 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9001 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9002 [Steve Henson]
9003
9004 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9005 [Andy Polyakov]
9006
9007 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9008 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9009 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9010 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9011 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9012 in ca.
9013 [Steve Henson]
9014
9015 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9016 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9017 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9018 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9019 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9020 [Steve Henson]
9021
9022 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9023 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9024 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9025 are otherwise ignored at present.
9026 [Steve Henson]
9027
9028 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9029 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9030 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9031 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9032 copied until the next read.
9033 [Steve Henson]
9034
9035 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9036 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9037 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9038 [Steve Henson]
9039
9040 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9041 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9042 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9043 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9044 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9045 associated functions.
9046 [Steve Henson]
9047
9048 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9049 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9050 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9051 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9052 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9053 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9054 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9055 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9056 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9057 memory BIOs.
9058 [Steve Henson]
9059
9060 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9061 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9062 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9063 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9064 [Bodo Moeller]
9065
9066 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9067 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9068 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9069 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9070 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9071 functionality.
9072 [Steve Henson]
9073
9074 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9075 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9076 under Win32.
9077 [Steve Henson]
9078
9079 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9080 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9081 extensions to be obtained and added.
9082 [Steve Henson]
9083
9084 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9085 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9086 [Bodo Moeller]
9087
9088 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9089
9090 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9091 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9092
9093 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9094 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9095
9096 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9097 program.
9098 [Steve Henson]
9099
9100 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9101 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9102 DH parameters contain its length).
9103
9104 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9105 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9106 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9107 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9108 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9109 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9110 utter importance to use
9111 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9112 or
9113 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9114 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9115 attacks may become possible!
9116 [Bodo Moeller]
9117
9118 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9119 [Bodo Moeller]
9120
9121 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9122 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9123 [Steve Henson]
9124
9125 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9126 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9127 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9128 or long name.
9129 [Steve Henson]
9130
9131 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9132 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9133 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9134 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9135 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9136 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9137 private key operations.
9138 [Steve Henson]
9139
9140 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9141 [Andy Polyakov]
9142
9143 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9144 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9145 to
9146 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9147 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9148 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9149 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9150 the password callback is called.
9151 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9152
9153 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9154
9155 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9156 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9157 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9158 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9159 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9160 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9161 this will work.
9162
9163 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9164 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9165 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9166 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9167 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9168 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9169 [Bodo Moeller]
9170
9171 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9172 [Andy Polyakov]
9173
9174 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9175 delete an unused file.
9176 [Ulf Möller]
9177
9178 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9179 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9180 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9181 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9182 [Steve Henson]
9183
9184 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9185 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9186 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9187 of an error.
9188 [Bodo Moeller]
9189
9190 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9191 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9192 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9193
9194 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9195 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9196 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9197 comparison" warnings.
9198 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9199 [Steve Henson]
9200
9201 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9202 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9203 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9204 [Steve Henson]
9205
9206 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9207 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9208
9209 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9210 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9211
9212 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9213 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9214 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9215
9216 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9217 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9218 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9219 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9220 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9221 this bug.
9222 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9223
9224 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9225 The interface is as follows:
9226 Applications can use
9227 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9228 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9229 "off" is now the default.
9230 The library internally uses
9231 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9232 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9233 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9234
9235 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9236 even the default) are now avoided.
9237
9238 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9239 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9240 than just having a counter.
9241
9242 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9243
9244 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9245 extensions.
9246 [Bodo Moeller]
9247
9248 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9249 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9250 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9251 Initial "mode" flags are:
9252
9253 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9254 a single record has been written.
9255 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9256 retries use the same buffer location.
9257 (But all of the contents must be
9258 copied!)
9259 [Bodo Moeller]
9260
9261 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9262 worked.
9263
9264 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9265 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9266
9267 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9268 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9269 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9270 [Steve Henson]
9271
9272 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9273 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9274 test programs.
9275 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9276
9277 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9278 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9279 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9280 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9281 point to the end.
9282 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9283 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9284
9285 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9286 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9287 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9288 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9289 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9290 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9291 [Steve Henson]
9292
9293 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9294 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9295 necessary function names.
9296 [Steve Henson]
9297
9298 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9299 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9300 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9301 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9302 [Bodo Moeller]
9303
9304 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9305 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9306 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9307 [Steve Henson]
9308
9309 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9310 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9311 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9312 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9313 such programs?)
9314 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9315 need locks.
9316 [Bodo Moeller]
9317
9318 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9319 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9320 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9321 [Bodo Moeller]
9322
9323 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9324 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9325 appropriate.
9326 [Bodo Moeller]
9327
9328 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9329 for the encoded length.
9330 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9331
9332 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9333 [Steve Henson]
9334
9335 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9336 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9337 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9338 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9339 [Steve Henson]
9340
9341 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9342 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9343 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9344
9345 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9346 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9347 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9348 unusual formatting.
9349 [Steve Henson]
9350
9351 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9352 to use the new extension code.
9353 [Steve Henson]
9354
9355 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9356 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9357 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9358 constant.
9359 [Steve Henson]
9360
9361 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9362 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9363 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9364 [Bodo Moeller]
9365
9366 #if 0
9367 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9368 [Ben Laurie]
9369 #else
9370 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9371 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9372 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9373 #endif
9374
9375 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9376 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9377 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9378 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9379 [Ben Laurie]
9380
9381 *) DES library cleanups.
9382 [Ulf Möller]
9383
9384 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9385 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9386 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9387 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9388 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9389 of v2.0.
9390 [Steve Henson]
9391
9392 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9393 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9394 [Bodo Moeller]
9395
9396 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9397 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9398 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9399 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9400 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9401 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9402 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9403 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9404 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9405 [Steve Henson]
9406
9407 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9408 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9409 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9410 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9411 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9412 value doesn't matter.
9413 [Steve Henson]
9414
9415 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9416 support mutable.
9417 [Ben Laurie]
9418
9419 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9420 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9421 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9422 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9423
9424 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9425 [Ulf Möller]
9426
9427 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9428 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9429 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9430
9431 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9432 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9433
9434 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9435 [Ben Laurie]
9436
9437 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9438 [Ben Laurie]
9439
9440 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9441 [Ben Laurie]
9442
9443 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9444 [Bodo Moeller]
9445
9446
9447 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9448
9449 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9450
9451 *) Updated some demos.
9452 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9453
9454 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9455 [Wu Zhigang]
9456
9457 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9458 [Steve Henson]
9459
9460 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9461 [Steve Henson]
9462
9463 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9464 instead of using a fixed path.
9465 [Bodo Moeller]
9466
9467 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9468 [Andy Polyakov]
9469
9470 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9471 [Richard Levitte]
9472
9473
9474 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9475
9476 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9477 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9478 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9479
9480 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9481 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9482 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9483 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9484 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9485 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9486 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9487 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9488 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9489 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9490 [Steve Henson]
9491
9492 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9493 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9494 [Steve Henson]
9495
9496 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9497 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9498 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9499 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9500 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9501
9502 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9503 [Bodo Moeller]
9504
9505 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9506 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9507 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9508 [Steve Henson]
9509
9510 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9511 [Ben Laurie]
9512
9513 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9514 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9515 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9516 key elements as negative integers.
9517 [Steve Henson]
9518
9519 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9520 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9521
9522 *) VMS support.
9523 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9524
9525 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9526 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9527 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9528 [Steve Henson]
9529
9530 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9531 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9532 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9533 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9534 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9535 [Bodo Moeller]
9536
9537 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9538 [Ulf Möller]
9539
9540 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9541 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9542 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9543 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9544
9545 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9546 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9547 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9548
9549 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9550 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9551 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9552 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9553 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9554 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9555 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9556 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9557 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9558
9559 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9560 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9561 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9562 does not influence s as it used to.
9563
9564 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9565 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9566 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9567 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9568 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9569 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9570 [Bodo Moeller]
9571
9572 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9573 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9574 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9575 key type.
9576 [Steve Henson]
9577
9578 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9579 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9580 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9581 and 'x509').
9582 [Steve Henson]
9583
9584 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9585 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9586 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9587 extension option.
9588 [Steve Henson]
9589
9590 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9591 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9592 [Ben Laurie]
9593
9594 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9595 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9596
9597 *) Support Mingw32.
9598 [Ulf Möller]
9599
9600 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9601 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9602
9603 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9604 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9605
9606 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9607 [Ulf Möller]
9608
9609 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9610 [Anonymous]
9611
9612 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9613 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9614
9615 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9616 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9617 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9618 DER-encoded.)
9619 [Bodo Moeller]
9620
9621 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9622 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9623 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9624 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9625 now it really counts the depth.
9626 [Bodo Moeller]
9627
9628 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9629 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9630 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9631 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9632 didn't match the private key).
9633
9634 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9635 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9636 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9637 [Bodo Moeller]
9638
9639 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9640 [Ulf Möller]
9641
9642 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9643 David Harris.
9644 [Bodo Moeller]
9645
9646 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9647 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9648 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9649 [Bodo Moeller]
9650
9651 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9652 [Bodo Moeller]
9653
9654 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9655 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9656 such as /usr/local/bin.
9657 [Bodo Moeller]
9658
9659 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9660 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9661
9662 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9663 [Ulf Möller]
9664
9665 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9666 extension adding in x509 utility.
9667 [Steve Henson]
9668
9669 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9670 [Ulf Möller]
9671
9672 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9673 prototypes.
9674 [Steve Henson]
9675
9676 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9677 [Ulf Möller]
9678
9679 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9680 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9681 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9682 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9683 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9684 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9685 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9686 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9687 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9688 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9689 [Steve Henson]
9690
9691 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9692 [Bodo Moeller]
9693
9694 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9695 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9696 [Bodo Moeller]
9697
9698 *) Fix some race conditions.
9699 [Bodo Moeller]
9700
9701 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9702 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9703 [Steve Henson]
9704
9705 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9706 [Ulf Möller]
9707
9708 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9709 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9710 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9711 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9712
9713 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9714 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9715
9716 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9717 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9718 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9719
9720 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9721 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9722
9723 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9724 [Ulf Möller]
9725
9726 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9727 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9728
9729 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9730 [Ulf Möller]
9731
9732 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9733 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9734
9735 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9736 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9737 [Steve Henson]
9738
9739 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9740 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9741 [Ben Laurie]
9742
9743 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9744 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9745 [Steve Henson]
9746
9747 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9748 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9749 [Steve Henson]
9750
9751 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9752 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9753 [Steve Henson]
9754
9755 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9756 support typesafe stack.
9757 [Steve Henson]
9758
9759 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9760 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9761
9762 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9763 old X509V3 handling code.
9764 [Steve Henson]
9765
9766 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9767 [Ulf Möller]
9768
9769 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9770 [Bodo Moeller]
9771
9772 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9773 [Ben Laurie]
9774
9775 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9776 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9777
9778 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9779 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9780 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9781 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9782 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9783 [Ben Laurie]
9784
9785 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9786 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9787 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9788 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9789 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9790
9791 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9792 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9793 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9794 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9795
9796 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9797 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9798 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9799 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9800
9801 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9802 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9803 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9804 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9805 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9806 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9807 [Bodo Moeller]
9808
9809 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9810 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9811 [Bodo Moeller]
9812
9813 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9814 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9815 [Ulf Möller]
9816
9817 *) Tweaks to Configure
9818 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9819
9820 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9821 yet...
9822 [Steve Henson]
9823
9824 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9825 [Ulf Möller]
9826
9827 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9828 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9829 [Ulf Möller]
9830
9831 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9832 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9833 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9834 [Bodo Moeller]
9835
9836 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9837 [Bodo Moeller]
9838
9839 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9840 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9841 [Steve Henson]
9842
9843 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9844 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9845 to library startup routines.
9846 [Steve Henson]
9847
9848 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9849 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9850 codes along the way.
9851 [Steve Henson]
9852
9853 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9854 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9855 objects to objects.h
9856 [Steve Henson]
9857
9858 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9859 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9860 [Steve Henson]
9861
9862 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9863 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9864
9865 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9866 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9867 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9868
9869 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9870 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9871 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9872
9873 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9874 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9875 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9876
9877
9878 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9879
9880 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9881 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9882 [Ben Laurie]
9883
9884 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9885 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9886 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9887 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9888 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9889
9890 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9891 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9892 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9893 document.
9894 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9895
9896 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9897 Malloc, Free.
9898 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9899
9900 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9901 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9902
9903 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9904 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9905 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9906 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9907
9908 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9909 [Ben Laurie]
9910
9911 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9912 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9913 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9914 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9915 [Steve Henson]
9916
9917 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9918 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9919 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9920 [Steve Henson]
9921
9922 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9923 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9924 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9925 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9926 installed as `perl').
9927 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9928
9929 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9930 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9931
9932 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9933 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9934 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9935 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9936 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9937 [Steve Henson]
9938
9939 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9940 [Ben Laurie]
9941
9942 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9943 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9944 is horrible: I feel ill....
9945 [Steve Henson]
9946
9947 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9948 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9949 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9950 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9951 [Steve Henson]
9952
9953 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9954 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9955
9956 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9957 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9958 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9959 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9960
9961 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9962 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9963 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9964 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9965 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9966 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9967 openssl_bio.xs.
9968 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9969
9970 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9971 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9972
9973 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9974 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9975
9976 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9977 [Ben Laurie]
9978
9979 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9980 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9981 in CRLs.
9982 [Steve Henson]
9983
9984 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9985 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9986 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9987 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9988 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9989 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9990 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9991 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9992 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9993 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9994 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9995
9996 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9997 [Ben Laurie]
9998
9999 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10000 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10001 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10002 for linking it into DSOs.
10003 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10004
10005 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10006 Fixed.
10007 [Ben Laurie]
10008
10009 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10010 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10011 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10012 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10013 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10014 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10015
10016 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10017 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10018 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10019 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10020 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10021 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10022 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10023
10024 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10025 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10026 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10027 encryption.
10028 [Ben Laurie]
10029
10030 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10031 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10032 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10033 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10034 [Steve Henson]
10035
10036 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10037 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10038 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10039 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10040 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10041 field as blank.
10042 [Steve Henson]
10043
10044 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10045 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10046 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10047 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10048 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10049
10050 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10051 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10052 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10053
10054 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10055 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10056
10057 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10058 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10059 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10060 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10061 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10062 [Steve Henson]
10063
10064 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10065 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10066 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10067 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10068 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10069 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10070 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10071 [Ben Laurie]
10072
10073 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10074 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10075 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10076 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10077 [Ben Laurie]
10078
10079 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10080 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10081
10082 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10083 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10084 [Steve Henson]
10085
10086 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10087 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10088 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10089 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10090 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10091 (e.g. s_server).
10092 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10093 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10094 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10095 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10096 no way to reconfigure them.
10097 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10098 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10099 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10100 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10101 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10102 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10103
10104 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10105 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10106 recognized by the users.
10107 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10108
10109 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10110 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10111 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10112 already masked variable.
10113 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10114
10115 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10116 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10117
10118 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10119 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10120 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10121 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10122
10123 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10124 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10125 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10126
10127 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10128 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10129 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10130 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10131 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10132 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10133 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10134 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10135 now, too.
10136 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10137
10138 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10139 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10140 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10141
10142 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10143 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10144 config file.
10145 [Steve Henson]
10146
10147 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10148 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10149
10150 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10151 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10152 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10153 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10154 [Ben Laurie]
10155
10156 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10157 [Steve Henson]
10158
10159 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10160 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10161
10162 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10163 [Ben Laurie]
10164
10165 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10166 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10167 [Steve Henson]
10168
10169 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10170 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10171 [Steve Henson]
10172
10173 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10174 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10175 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10176 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10177 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10178 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10179 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10180 Ben Laurie]
10181
10182 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10183 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10184
10185 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10186 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10187 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10188 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10189 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10190
10191 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10192 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10193 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10194 [Steve Henson]
10195
10196 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10197 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10198 an example.
10199 [Steve Henson]
10200
10201 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10202 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10203 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10204
10205 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10206 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10207 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10208 build instructions.
10209 [Steve Henson]
10210
10211 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10212 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10213 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10214 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10215 [Steve Henson]
10216
10217 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10218 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10219 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10220 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10221 [Ben Laurie]
10222
10223 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10224 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10225 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10226 so it wasn't spotted.
10227 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10228
10229 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10230 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10231 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10232 vectors if you have them.
10233 [Ben Laurie]
10234
10235 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10236 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10237 [Ben Laurie]
10238
10239 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10240 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10241 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10242 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10243 If you do a:
10244 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10245 it will update them.
10246 [Steve Henson]
10247
10248 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10249 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10250 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10251 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10252 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10253 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10254 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10255 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10256
10257 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10258 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10259 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10260 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10261 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10262 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10263 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10264 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10265 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10266 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10267
10268 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10269 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10270 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10271 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10272 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10273 [Steve Henson]
10274
10275 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10276 INTEGER code.
10277 [Steve Henson]
10278
10279 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10280 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10281
10282 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10283 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10284
10285 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10286 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10287 [Ben Laurie]
10288
10289 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10290 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10291
10292 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10293 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10294
10295 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10296 [Steve Henson]
10297
10298 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10299 few typos.
10300 [Steve Henson]
10301
10302 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10303 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10304 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10305 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10306
10307 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10308 [Steve Henson]
10309
10310 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10311 [Steve Henson]
10312
10313 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10314 [Steve Henson]
10315
10316 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10317 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10318 [Steve Henson]
10319
10320 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10321 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10322 CA extensions.
10323 [Steve Henson]
10324
10325 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10326 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10327 [Steve Henson]
10328
10329 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10330 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10331 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10332 [Steve Henson]
10333
10334 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10335 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10336 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10337 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10338 properly to be processed.
10339 [Steve Henson]
10340
10341 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10342 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10343 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10344 [Ben Laurie]
10345
10346 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10347 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10348
10349 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10350 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10351 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10352 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10353 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10354 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10355 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10356 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10357 or delete all the .err files.
10358 [Steve Henson]
10359
10360 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10361 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10362 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10363 to regenerate it if needed.
10364 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10365 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10366
10367 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10368 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10369
10370 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10371 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10372 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10373 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10374 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10375 [Steve Henson]
10376
10377 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10378 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10379
10380 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10381 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10382
10383 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10384 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10385 error, but didn't set one).
10386 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10387
10388 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10389 [Ben Laurie]
10390
10391 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10392 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10393 [Steve Henson]
10394
10395 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10396 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10397
10398 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10399 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10400 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10401 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10402 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10403 OID is not part of the table.
10404 [Steve Henson]
10405
10406 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10407 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10408 [Ben Laurie]
10409
10410 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10411 [Ben Laurie]
10412
10413 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10414 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10415 was "1234").
10416 [Steve Henson]
10417
10418 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10419 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10420
10421 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10422 NULL pointers.
10423 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10424
10425 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10426 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10427
10428 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10429 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10430
10431 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10432 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10433
10434 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10435 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10436 [Ben Laurie]
10437
10438 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10439 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10440 [Steve Henson]
10441
10442 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10443 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10444
10445 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10446 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10447
10448 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10449 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10450
10451 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10452 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10453
10454 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10455 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10456 unused in the certificate verification process.
10457 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10458
10459 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10460 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10461 [Steve Henson]
10462
10463 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10464 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10465 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10466
10467 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10468 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10469 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10470 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10471 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10472
10473 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10474 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10475 [Steve Henson]
10476
10477 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10478 [Steve Henson]
10479
10480 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10481 [Paul Sutton]
10482
10483 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10484 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10485
10486 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10487 [Ben Laurie]
10488
10489 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10490 [Ben Laurie]
10491
10492 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10493 [Ben Laurie]
10494
10495 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10496 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10497 other error libraries.
10498 [Steve Henson]
10499
10500 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10501 [Steve Henson]
10502
10503 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10504 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10505 be read in.
10506 [Steve Henson]
10507
10508 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10509 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10510 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10511 the new set of documenation files.
10512 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10513
10514 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10515 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10516 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10517 number of arguments.
10518 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10519
10520 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10521 [Ben Laurie]
10522
10523 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10524 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10525 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10526
10527 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10528 [Ben Laurie]
10529
10530 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10531 nextstep
10532 ncr-scde
10533 unixware-2.0
10534 unixware-2.0-pentium
10535 sco5-cc.
10536 [Ben Laurie]
10537
10538 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10539 before they are needed.
10540 [Ben Laurie]
10541
10542 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10543 [Ben Laurie]
