2 _______________
3
4 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 [xx XXX 2000]
5
6 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
7 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
8 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
9 [Bodo Moeller]
10
11 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
12 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
13 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
14 [Steve Henson]
15
16 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
17 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
18 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
19 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
20 [Lutz Jaenicke]
21
22 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
23 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
24 appear to exist.
25 [Steve Henson]
26
27 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
28 additional certificates supplied.
29 [Steve Henson]
30
31 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
32 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
33 signature against.
34 [Richard Levitte]
35
36 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
37 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
38 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
39
40 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
41 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
42 AES OIDs. Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in the "AES Ciphersuites
43 for TLS" draft-ietf-tls-ciphersuite-03.txt.
44 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
45
46 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
47 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
48 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
49 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
50 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
51 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
52 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
53 [Bodo Moeller]
54
55 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
56 [Ulf Moeller]
57
58 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
59 request to response.
60 [Steve Henson]
61
62 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
63 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
64 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
65 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
66 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
67 reponse and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
68 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
69 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
70 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
71 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
72 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
73 [Steve Henson]
74
75 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
76 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
77 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests tha public_key
78 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
79 [Steve Henson]
80
81 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
82 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
83 [Steve Henson]
84
85 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
86 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
87 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
88 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
89 headers.
90 [Richard Levitte]
91
92 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
93 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
94
95 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
96 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
97 reponse then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
98 [Steve Henson]
99
100 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
101 DH ciphersuites.
102 [Steve Henson]
103
104 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
105 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
106 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
107 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
108 <support@securenetterm.com>]
109
110 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
111 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
112 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
113 [Steve Henson]
114
115 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
116 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
117
118 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
119 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()), to SSL_library_init()
120 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
121 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
122 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
123 [Bodo Moeller]
124
125 *) ./config script fixes.
126 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
127
128 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
129 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
130 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
131 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
132 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
133 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
134 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
135 <support@securenetterm.com>]
136
137 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
138 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
139 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
140 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
141 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
142 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
146 [Bodo Moeller]
147
148 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
149 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
150 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
151 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
152 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
153 printout format cleaned up.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
156 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
157 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
158 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
159 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
160 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
161 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
162 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
163 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
164 [Steve Henson]
165
166 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
167 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
168 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
169 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
170 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
171 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
172 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
173 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
174 [Steve Henson]
175
176 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
177 extensions from a separate configuration file.
178 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
179 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
180 section to use.
181 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
182
183 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
184 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
185 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
186 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
187 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
188
189 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
190 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
191 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
192 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
193 [Steve Henson]
194
195 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
196 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
197 the given serial number (according to the index file).
198 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
199 in the index file.
200 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
201
202 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
203 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
204 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
205 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
206
207 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
208 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
209
210 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
211 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
212 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
213 [Steve Henson]
214
215 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
216 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
217 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
218 [Bodo Moeller]
219
220 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
221 call failed, free the DSA structure.
222 [Bodo Moeller]
223
224 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
225 file name and line number information in additional arguments
226 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
227 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
228 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
229 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
230 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
231 functions are provided:
232
233 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
234 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
235 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
236 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
237
238 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
239 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
240 extended allocation function is enabled.
241 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
242 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
243 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
244
245 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
246 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
247 [Steve Henson]
248
249 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
250 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
251 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
252 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
253 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
254 [Geoff Thorpe]
255
256 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
257 If an EGD or PRNGD is running and enough entropy is returned, automatic
258 seeding like with /dev/[u]random will be performed.
259 Positions tried are: /etc/entropy, /var/run/egd-pool.
260 [Lutz Jaenicke]
261
262 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
263 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
264 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
265 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
266 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
267 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
268 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
269 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
270 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
271 [Richard Levitte]
272
273 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
274 provide utility functions which an application needing
275 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
276 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
277 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
278
279 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
280 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
281 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
282 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
283 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
284 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
285 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
286 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
287 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
288
289 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
290 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
291 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
292 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
293 [Steve Henson]
294
295 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
296 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
297 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
298 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
299 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
300 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
301 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
302 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
303 will be added elsewhere.
304 [Steve Henson]
305
306 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
307 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
308 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
309 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
310 [Steve Henson]
311
312 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
313 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
314 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
315 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
316 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
317 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
318 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
319 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
320 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
321 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
322 to produce the required SET OF.
323 [Steve Henson]
324
325 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
326 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
327 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
328 [Richard Levitte]
329
330 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
331 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
332 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
333 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
334 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
335 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
336 [Steve Henson]
337
338 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
339 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
340 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
341 [Steve Henson]
342
343 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
344 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
345 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
346 [Richard Levitte]
347
348 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
349 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
350 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
351 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
352 code will still work when these eventually go away.
353 [Steve Henson]
354
355 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
356 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
357 [Steve Henson]
358
359 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
360 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
361 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
362 certifcates and CRLs.
363 [Steve Henson]
364
365 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
366 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
367 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
368 [Steve Henson]
369
370 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
371 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
372 when writing a 32767 byte record.
373 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
374
375 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
376 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
377
378 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
379 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
380 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
381 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
382 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
383
384 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
385 entries for variables.
386 [Steve Henson]
387
388 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
389 [Bodo Moeller]
390
391 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
392 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
393 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
394 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
395 [Bodo Moeller]
396
397 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
398 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
399 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
400 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
401 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
402 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
403 [Bodo Moeller]
404
405 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
406 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
407
408 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
409 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
410 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
411 [Steve Henson]
412
413 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
414 print routines.
415 [Steve Henson]
416
417 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
418 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
419 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
420 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
421 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
422 order did not reflect the encoded order.
423 [Steve Henson]
424
425 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
429 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
430 for now but they will eventually go away.
431 [Steve Henson]
432
433 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
434 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
435 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
436 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
437 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
438 has also been converted to the new form.
439 [Steve Henson]
440
441 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
442 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
443 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
444 for negative moduli.
445 [Bodo Moeller]
446
447 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
448 of not touching the result's sign bit.
449 [Bodo Moeller]
450
451 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
452 set.
453 [Bodo Moeller]
454
455 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
456 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
457 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
458 type-specific callbacks.
459 [Geoff Thorpe]
460
461 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
462 [Ulf Möller]
463
464 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
465 RFC 2712.
466 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
467 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
468
469 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
470 [Ulf Möller]
471
472 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
473 [Bodo Moeller]
474
475 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
476 in sections depending on the subject.
477 [Richard Levitte]
478
479 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
480 Windows.
481 [Richard Levitte]
482
483 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
484 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
485 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
486 be handled deterministically).
487 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
488
489 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
490 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
491 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
492 result of the server certificate verification.)
493 [Lutz Jaenicke]
494
495 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
496 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
497 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
498 [Bodo Moeller]
499
500 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
501 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
502 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
503 [Bodo Moeller]
504
505 *) Fix SSL_peek:
506 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
507 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
508 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
509 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
510 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
511 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
512 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
513 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
514 [Bodo Moeller]
515
516 *) New function BN_kronecker.
517 [Bodo Moeller]
518
519 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
520 positive unless both parameters are zero.
521 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
522 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
523 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
524 [Bodo Moeller]
525
526 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
527 sign of the number in question.
528
529 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
530
531 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
532 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
533 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
534 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
535 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
536 [Bodo Moeller]
537
538 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
539 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
540 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
541 happening the other way round.
542 [Geoff Thorpe]
543
544 *) New function BN_swap.
545 [Bodo Moeller]
546
547 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
548 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
549 results on negative inputs.
550 [Bodo Moeller]
551
552 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
553 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
554 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
555 [Bodo Moeller]
556
557 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
558 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
559 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
560 and add new functions:
561
562 BN_nnmod
563 BN_mod_sqr
564 BN_mod_add
565 BN_mod_add_quick
566 BN_mod_sub
567 BN_mod_sub_quick
568 BN_mod_lshift1
569 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
570 BN_mod_lshift
571 BN_mod_lshift_quick
572
573 These functions always generate non-negative results.
574
575 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
576 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
577
578 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
579 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
580 be reduced modulo m.
581 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
582
583 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
584 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
585 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
586 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
587 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
588 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
589 differing sizes.
590 [Richard Levitte]
591
592 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
593 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
594 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
595 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
596 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
597
598 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
599 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
600 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
601 cause any problems.
602 [Bodo Moeller]
603
604 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
605 [Richard Levitte]
606
607 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
608 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
609 [Bodo Moeller]
610
611 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
612 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
613 [Richard Levitte]
614
615 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
616 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
617 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
618 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
619 time)
620 [Richard Levitte]
621
622 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
623 [Richard Levitte]
624
625 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
626 [Richard Levitte]
627
628 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
629 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
630 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
631 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
632 [Richard Levitte]
633
634 *) Add the following functions:
635
636 ENGINE_load_cswift()
637 ENGINE_load_chil()
638 ENGINE_load_atalla()
639 ENGINE_load_nuron()
640 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
641
642 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
643 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
644 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
645 libraries unless it's really needed.
646
647 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
648 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
649 declarations (they differed!).
650 [Richard Levitte]
651
652 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
653 [Richard Levitte]
654
655 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
656 [Richard Levitte]
657
658 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
659 [Bodo Moeller]
660
661 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
662 identity, and test if they are actually available.
663 [Richard Levitte]
664
665 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
666 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
667
668 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
669 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
670 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
671
672 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
673 little-endian MIPS.
674 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
675
676 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
677 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
678 [Richard Levitte]
679
680 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
681 [Richard Levitte]
682
683 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
684 [Richard Levitte]
685
686 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
687 [Ben Laurie]
688
689 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
690 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
691 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
692
693 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
694 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
695 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
696 different shared library filenames on each system.
697 [Geoff Thorpe]
698
699 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
700 [Richard Levitte]
701
702 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX
703 [Richard Levitte]
704
705 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
706 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
707 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
708 of two sections.
709 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
710
711 *) NCONF changes.
712 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
713 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
714 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
715 binary backward compatibility.
716 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
717 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
718 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
719 LDAP server.
720 [Richard Levitte]
721
722 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
723 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
724
725 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
726
727 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
728 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
729 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
730 that.
731
732 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
733
734 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
735
736 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
737 static ones.
738 [Richard Levitte]
739
740 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
741 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
742 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
743 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
744 this case.
745 [Steve Henson]
746
747 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
748 [Ben Laurie]
749
750 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
751 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
752 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
753 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
754 set.
755 [Steve Henson]
756
757 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
758 [Richard Levitte]
759
760 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
761
762 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
763 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
764 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
765 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
766 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
767
768 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
769 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
770 matter what.
771 [Richard Levitte]
772
773 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
774
775 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
776 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
777 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
778 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
779 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
780 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
781 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
782 by the Finished messages.
783 [Bodo Moeller]
784
785 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
786 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
787
788 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
789 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
790 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
791 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
792 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
793 appropriately.
794 [Steve Henson]
795
796 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
797 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
798 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
799 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
800 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
801 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
802 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
803 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
804 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
805 together.
806 [Steve Henson]
807
808 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
809 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
810 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
811 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
812
813 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
814 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
815 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
816 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
817 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
818 the answer.
819
820 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
821 been tested well enough.
822 [Richard Levitte]
823
824 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
825 it can return incorrect results.
826 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
827 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
828 [Bodo Moeller]
829
830 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
831 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
832 include zero length content when signing messages.
833 [Steve Henson]
834
835 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
836 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
837 [Bodo Möller]
838
839 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
840 [Richard Levitte]
841
842 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
843 wrong sign.
844 [Ulf Möller]
845
846 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
847 packages. The default package contains applications, application
848 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
849 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
850 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
851 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
852 [Richard Levitte]
853
854 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
855 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
856
857 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
858 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
859
860 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
861 random number < q in the DSA library.
862 [Ulf Möller]
863
864 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
865 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
866 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
867 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
868 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
869 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
870 just makes things more complicated.)
871 [Bodo Moeller]
872
873 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
874 from EGD.
875 [Ben Laurie]
876
877 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
878 work better on such systems.
879 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
880
881 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
882 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
883 keyid to the certificates aux info.
884 [Steve Henson]
885
886 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
887 if there was more than one signature.
888 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
889
890 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
891 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
892 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
893 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
894 [Richard Levitte]
895
896 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
897 rather than always using the current time.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
901 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
902 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
903 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
904 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
905 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
906
907 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
908 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
909
910 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
911
912 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
913 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
914 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
915 the same hash value.
916
917 As a result various functions (which were all internal
918 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
919 structure. This will break anything that messed round
920 with X509_STORE internally.
921
922 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
923 exact match, rather than just subject name.
924
925 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
926 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
927 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
928 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
929 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
930 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
931 entirely (maybe later...).
932
933 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
934
935 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
936 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
937 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
938 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
939 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
940 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
941 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
942 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
943
944 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
945 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
946
947 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
948 to customise the verify behaviour.
949 [Steve Henson]
950
951 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
952 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
953 [Steve Henson]
954
955 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
956 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
957 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
958 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
959 request is improperly encoded.
960 [Steve Henson]
961
962 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
963 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
964 BIO_write(b, ...).
965
966 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
967 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
968
969 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
970 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
971 words set to zero.)
972 [Bodo Moeller]
973
974 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
975 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
976 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
977 [Bodo Moeller]
978
979 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
980 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
981 BIO/fp routines also added.
982 [Steve Henson]
983
984 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
985 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
986
987 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
988 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
989 demos/state_machine.
990 [Ben Laurie]
991
992 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
993 generation and verification.
994 [Steve Henson]
995
996 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
997 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
998 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
999 encode and decode it manually.
1000 [Steve Henson]
1001
1002 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
1003 compile under VC++.
1004 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
1005
1006 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
1007 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
1008 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
1009 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
1010
1011 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
1012 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
1013 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
1014 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
1015 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
1016 [Steve Henson]
1017
1018 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
1019 [Richard Levitte]
1020
1021 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
1022 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
1023 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
1024
1025 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
1026 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
1027 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
1028 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
1029 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
1030 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
1031 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
1032 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
1033
1034 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
1035 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
1036
1037 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
1038
1039 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
1040 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
1041 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
1042
1043 [Richard Levitte]
1044
1045 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
1046 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
1047 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
1048 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
1049 [Richard Levitte]
1050
1051 *) MD4 implemented.
1052 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
1053
1054 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
1055 [Richard Levitte]
1056
1057 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
1058 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
1059 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
1060 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
1061 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
1062 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
1063 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
1064 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
1065 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
1066 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
1067 short or long names are found.
1068 [Steve Henson]
1069
1070 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
1071 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
1072
1073 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
1074 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
1075 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
1076 version rollback attacks was not effective.
1077
1078 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
1079 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
1080 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
1081 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
1082 [Bodo Moeller]
1083
1084 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
1085 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
1086 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
1087 [Richard Levitte]
1088
1089 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
1090 these print out strings and name structures based on various
1091 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
1092 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
1093 to allow the various flags to be set.
1094 [Steve Henson]
1095
1096 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
1097 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
1098 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
1099 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
1100 dates to be checked.
1101 [Steve Henson]
1102
1103 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
1104 negative public key encodings) on by default,
1105 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
1106 [Steve Henson]
1107
1108 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
1109 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
1110 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
1111 [Steve Henson]
1112
1113 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
1114 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
1115 [Bodo Moeller]
1116
1117 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
1118 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
1119 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
1120 are always statically linked for now, but there are
1121 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
1122 This has been tested on Linux and True64.
1123 [Richard Levitte]
1124
1125 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
1126 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
1127 Random Numbers.
1128 [Ulf Möller]
1129
1130 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
1131 DSA key.
1132 [Steve Henson]
1133
1134 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
1135 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
1136 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
1137 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
1138 form signing output easier to verify.
1139 [Steve Henson]
1140
1141 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
1142 [Steve Henson]
1143
1144 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
1145 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
1146 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
1147 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
1148 are needed because all other string types have virtually
1149 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
1150 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
1151 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
1152 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
1153 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
1154 [Steve Henson]
1155
1156 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
1157
1158 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
1159 the syntax given in objects.README.
1160 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
1161 obj_mac.h.
1162 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
1163 obj_mac.h.
1164
1165 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
1166 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
1167 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
1168 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
1169 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
1170 consistent name changes.
1171 [Richard Levitte]
1172
1173 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
1174 [Bodo Moeller]
1175
1176 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
1177 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
1178 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
1179 environment variable, or the default random state file.
1180 [Richard Levitte]
1181
1182 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
1183 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
1184 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
1185 of safestack.h .
1186 [Steve Henson]
1187
1188 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
1189 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
1190 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
1191 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
1192 [Steve Henson]
1193
1194 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
1195 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
1196 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
1197 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
1198 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
1199 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
1200 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
1201 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
1202 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
1203 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
1204 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
1205 [Steve Henson]
1206
1207 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
1208 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
1209 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
1210 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
1211 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
1212 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
1213 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
1214 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
1215 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
1216 algorithm to openssl-dev.
1217 [Steve Henson]
1218
1219 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
1220 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
1221 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
1222 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
1223
1224 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
1225 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
1226 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
1227 omit any duplicate addresses.
1228 [Steve Henson]
1229
1230 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
1231 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
1232 [Bodo Moeller]
1233
1234 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
1235 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
1236 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
1237 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
1238 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
1239 [Bodo Moeller]
1240
1241 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
1242 software:
1243 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
1244 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
1245 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
1246 Free => OPENSSL_free
1247 [Richard Levitte]
1248
1249 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
1250 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
1251 [Bodo Moeller]
1252
1253 *) CygWin32 support.
1254 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
1255
1256 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
1257 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
1258 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
1259 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
1260 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
1261 approach.
1262 [Geoff Thorpe]
1263
1264 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
1265 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
1266 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
1267 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
1268 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
1269 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
1270 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
1271 [Geoff Thorpe]
1272
1273 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
1274 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
1275 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
1276 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
1277 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
1278 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
1279 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
1280 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
1281 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
1282 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
1283 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
1284 [Bodo Moeller]
1285
1286 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
1287 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
1288 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
1289 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
1290 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
1291
1292 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
1293 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
1294 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
1295 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
1296 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
1297
1298 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
1299 ciphers.
1300
1301 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
1302 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
1303 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
1304 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
1305
1306 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
1307
1308 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
1309 of macros.
1310
1311 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
1312 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
1313 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
1314 flags.
1315
1316 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
1317 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
1318 any installed hardware versions can.
1319 [Steve Henson]
1320
1321 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
1322 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
1323 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
1324 number.
1325 [Bodo Moeller]
1326
1327 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
1328 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
1329 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
1330 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
1331 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
1332
1333 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
1334 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
1335 [Steve Henson]
1336
1337 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
1338 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
1339 [Richard Levitte]
1340
1341 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
1342 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
1343 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
1344 features.
1345 [Steve Henson]
1346
1347 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
1348 [Ulf Möller]
1349
1350 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
1351 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
1352 but no ssl client purpose.
1353 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
1354
1355 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
1356 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
1357 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
1358 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
1359 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
1360 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
1361 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
1362 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
1363 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
1364 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
1365 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
1366 [Steve Henson]
1367
1368 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
1369 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
1370 be obtained from the error queue.
1371 [Bodo Moeller]
1372
1373 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
1374 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
1375 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
1376 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
1377 [Bodo Moeller]
1378
1379 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
1380 [Ulf Möller]
1381
1382 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
1383 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
1384 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
1385 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
1386 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
1387 [Geoff Thorpe]
1388
1389 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
1390 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
1391 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
1392 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
1393 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
1394 [Geoff Thorpe]
1395
1396 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
1397 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
1398 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
1399 may not be NULL.
1400 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
1401
1402 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
1403 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
1404 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
1405 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
1406 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
1407 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
1408 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
1409 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
1410 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
1411 or "the configuration storage API"...
1412
1413 The new configuration file reading functions are:
1414
1415 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
1416 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
1417
1418 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
1419
1420 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
1421
1422 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
1423 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
1424 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
1425 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
1426 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
1427 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
1428 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
1429
1430 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
1431 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
1432 [Richard Levitte]
1433
1434 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
1435 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
1436 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
1437 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
1438 [Bodo Moeller]
1439
1440 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
1441 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
1442 them in a portable way.
1443 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
1444
1445 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
1446
1447 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
1448
1449 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
1450 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
1451
1452 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
1453 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
1454 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
1455 <attili@amaxo.com>]
1456
1457 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
1458 was larger than the MD block size.
1459 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
1460
1461 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
1462 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
1463 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
1464 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
1465 components.
1466 [Steve Henson]
1467
1468 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
1469 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
1470 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
1471
1472 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
1473 discouraged.
1474 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
1475
1476 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
1477 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
1478 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
1479 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
1480 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
1481 Additional arguments are always ignored.
1482
1483 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
1484 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
1485
1486 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
1487 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
1488 [Bodo Moeller]
1489
1490 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
1491 [Bodo Moeller]
1492
1493 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
1494 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
1495 its own key.
1496 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
1497 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
1498 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
1499 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
1500 [Bodo Moeller]
1501
1502 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
1503 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
1504 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
1505 does not suppress any output.
1506 [Richard Levitte]
1507
1508 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
1509 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
1510 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
1511 with all the associated security issues.
1512
1513 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
1514 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
1515 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
1516 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
1517 use the value in the default purpose.
1518 [Steve Henson]
1519
1520 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
1521 and fix a memory leak.
1522 [Steve Henson]
1523
1524 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
1525 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
1526 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
1527 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
1528 [Bodo Moeller]
1529
1530 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
1531 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
1532 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
1533 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
1534 [Bodo Moeller]
1535
1536 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
1537 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
1538 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
1539 [Bodo Moeller]
1540
1541 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
1542 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
1543 [Bodo Moeller]
1544
1545 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
1546 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
1547 which was free.
1548 [Steve Henson]
1549
1550 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
1551 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
1552 [Bodo Moeller]
1553
1554 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
1555 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
1556 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
1557 [Bodo Moeller]
1558
1559 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
1560 number generation fails.
1561 [Bodo Moeller]
1562
1563 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
1564 [Bodo Moeller]
1565
1566 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
1567 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
1568
1569 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
1570 [Ulf Möller]
1571
1572 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
1573 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
1574
1575 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
1576 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
1577
1578 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
1579
1580 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
1581 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
1582 [Steve Henson]
1583
1584 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
1585 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
1586
1587 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
1588 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
1589 [Ulf Möller]
1590
1591 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
1592 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
1593 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
1594 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
1595 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
1596 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
1597
1598 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
1599 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
1600 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
1601 for example.
1602 [Steve Henson]
1603
1604 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
1605 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
1606 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
1607 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
1608 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
1609 counter, some don't.)
1610 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
1611 counters or duplicate objects.
1612 [Steve Henson]
1613
1614 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
1615 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
1616 [Steve Henson]
1617
1618 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
1619 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
1620 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
1621
1622 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
1623 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
1624 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
1625 or -rand.
1626 [Ulf Möller]
1627
1628 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
1629 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
1630 [Steve Henson]
1631
1632 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
1633 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
1634 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
1635 cipher list.
1636 [Steve Henson]
1637
1638 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
1639 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
1640 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
1641 [Steve Henson]
1642
1643 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
1644 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
1645 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
1646 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
1647 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
1648 should work without changes.
1649 [Richard Levitte]
1650
1651 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
1652 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
1653 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
1654 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
1655 must be defined. E.g.,
1656 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
1657 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
1658 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
1659 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
1660
1661 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
1662 record layer.
1663 [Bodo Moeller]
1664
1665 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
1666 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
1667 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
1668 [Steve Henson]
1669
1670 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
1671 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
1672 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
1673 request header lines. Some software needs this.
1674 [Steve Henson]
1675
1676 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
1677 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
1678 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
1679 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
1680 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
1681 is prompted for as usual.
1682 [Steve Henson]
1683
1684 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
1685 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
1686 autodetect the card and use it if present.
1687 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
1688
1689 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
1690 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
1691 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
1692 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
1693 [Steve Henson]
1694
1695 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
1696 [Andy Polyakov]
1697
1698 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
1699 of seed file.
1700 [Steve Henson]
1701
1702 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
1703 [Bodo Moeller]
1704
1705 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
1706 [Steve Henson]
1707
1708 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
1709 bits.
1710 [Ulf Möller]
1711
1712 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
1713 [Ulf Möller]
1714
1715 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
1716 [Andy Polyakov]
1717
1718 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
1719 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
1720 [Ulf Möller]
1721
1722 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
1723 options to produce them.
1724 [Steve Henson]
1725
1726 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
1727 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
1728 [Ulf Möller]
1729
1730 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
1731 for p == 0.
1732 [Ulf Möller]
1733
1734 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
1735 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
1736 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
1737 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
1738 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
1739 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
1740 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
1741 [Steve Henson]
1742
1743 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
1746 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
1747 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
1748 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
1749 [Bodo Moeller]
1750
1751 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
1752 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
1753
1754 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
1755 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
1756 [Ulf Möller]
1757
1758 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
1759 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
1760 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
1761 has already seen).
1762 [Bodo Moeller]
1763
1764 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
1765 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
1766
1767 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
1768 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
1769 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
1770 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
1771 generation becomes much faster.
1772
1773 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
1774 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
1775 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
1776 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
1777 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
1778 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
1779 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
1780 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
1781 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
1782 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
1783 [Bodo Moeller]
1784
1785 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
1786 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
1787 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
1788 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
1789 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
1790 trial division stage.
1791 [Bodo Moeller]
1792
1793 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
1794 as ASN1_TIME.
1795 [Steve Henson]
1796
1797 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
1798 [Steve Henson]
1799
1800 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
1801 [Ulf Möller]
1802
1803 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
1804 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
1805 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
1806 the comments.
1807 [Ulf Möller]
1808
1809 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
1810 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
1811 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
1812 [Bodo Moeller]
1813
1814 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
1815 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
1816 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
1817 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
1818
1819 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
1820 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
1821 [Steve Henson]
1822
1823 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
1824 [Ulf Möller]
1825
1826 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
1827 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
1828 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
1829 Rabin-Miller iterations.
1830 [Ulf Möller]
1831
1832 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
1833 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
1834 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
1835 [Ulf Möller]
1836
1837 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
1838 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
1839 (instead of parameters) in future.
1840 [Steve Henson]
1841
1842 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
1843 when a new cipher list is set.
1844 [Steve Henson]
1845
1846 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
1847 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
1848 wrong.
1849
1850 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
1851 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
1852 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
1853
1854 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
1855 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
1856 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
1857 an error is flagged.
1858
1859 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
1860 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
1861 the readability was also increased :-)
1862 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
1863
1864 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
1865 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
1866 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
1867 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
1868 as the root CA.
1869 [Steve Henson]
1870
1871 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
1872 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
1873 [Steve Henson]
1874
1875 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
1876 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
1877 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
1878 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
1879 instead.
1880
1881 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
1882 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
1883 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
1884 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
1885 because they handle more complex structures.)
1886 [Steve Henson]
1887
1888 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
1889 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
1890 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
1891 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
1892
1893 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
1894 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
1895 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
1896 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
1897 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
1898 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
1899 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
1900 [Ulf Möller]
1901
1902 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
1903 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
1904 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
1905 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
1906 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
1907 [Bodo Moeller]
1908
1909 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
1910 [Bodo Moeller]
1911
1912 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
1913 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
1914 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
1915 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
1916 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
1917 to use this.
1918
1919 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
1920 code.
1921 [Steve Henson]
1922
1923 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
1924 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
1925 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
1926 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
1927 [Steve Henson]
1928
1929 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
1930 [Ulf Möller]
1931
1932 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
1933 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
1934 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
1935 international characters are used.
1936
1937 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
1938 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
1939 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
1940 in ASN1 order.
1941 [Steve Henson]
1942
1943 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
1944 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
1945 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
1946 request.
1947
1948 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
1949 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
1950 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
1951 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
1952 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
1953 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
1954
1955 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
1956 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
1957 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
1958 be handled by the string table functions.
1959
1960 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
1961 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
1962 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
1963 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
1964 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
1965 types at all.
1966 [Steve Henson]
1967
1968 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
1969 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
1970 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
1971 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
1972 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
1973
1974 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
1975 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
1976 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
1977 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
1978 [Bodo Moeller]
1979
1980 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
1981 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
1982 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
1983 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
1984 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
1985 SHA1.
1986 [Andy Polyakov]
1987
1988 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
1989 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
1990 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
1991 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
1992 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
1993 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
1994 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
1995 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
1996
1997 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
1998 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
1999 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
2000 [Steve Henson]
2001
2002 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
2003 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
2004 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
2005 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
2006 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
2007 support to pkcs8 application.
2008 [Steve Henson]
2009
2010 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
2011 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
2012 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
2013 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
2014 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
2015 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
2016 [Bodo Moeller]
2017
2018 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
2019 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
2020 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
2021 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
2022 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
2023 consistency.
2024 [Bodo Moeller]
2025
2026 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
2027 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
2028 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
2029 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
2030 example.
2031 [Steve Henson]
2032
2033 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
2034 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
2035 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
2036 and any application specific purposes.
2037
2038 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
2039 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
2040 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
2041 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
2042 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
2043 if the certificate is self signed.
2044 [Steve Henson]
2045
2046 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
2047 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
2048 [Steve Henson]
2049
2050 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
2051 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
2052 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
2053 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
2054 [Steve Henson]
2055
2056 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
2057 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
2058 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
2059 Update documentation.
2060 [Steve Henson]
2061
2062 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
2063 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
2064 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
2065 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
2066 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
2070 for details.
2071 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
2072
2073 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
2074 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
2075 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
2076 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
2077 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
2078 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
2079 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
2080 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
2081 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
2082 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
2083
2084 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
2085
2086 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
2087 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
2088 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
2089 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
2090 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
2091
2092 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
2093 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
2094 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
2095 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
2096 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
2097 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
2098 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
2099 request additional information:
2100 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
2101 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
2102
2103 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
2104 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
2105 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
2106 options.
2107
2108 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
2109 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
2110
2111 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
2112 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
2113 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
2114
2115 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
2116 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2117
2118 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
2119 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
2120 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
2121 algorithm.
2122 [Steve Henson]
2123
2124 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
2125 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
2126 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
2127
2128 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
2129 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
2130 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
2131 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
2132 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
2133 included in OpenSSL.
2134 [Steve Henson]
2135
2136 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
2137 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
2138 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
2139 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
2140 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
2141 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
2142 [Bodo Moeller]
2143
2144 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
2145 PKCS12 structure.
2146 [Steve Henson]
2147
2148 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
2149 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
2150 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
2151 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
2152 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
2153 structure.
2154 [Steve Henson]
2155
2156 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
2157 need initialising.
2158 [Steve Henson]
2159
2160 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
2161 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
2162 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
2163 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
2164 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
2165 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
2166 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
2167 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
2168 be maintained manually.
2169
2170 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
2171 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
2172 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
2173 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
2174 work because people forget to call this function]
2175 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
2176 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
2177 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
2178 [Steve Henson]
2179
2180 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
2181 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
2182 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
2183 should be discouraged from doing it.
2184 [Ben Laurie]
2185
2186 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
2187 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
2188 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
2189 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
2190 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
2191 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
2192 [Steve Henson]
2193
2194 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
2195 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
2196 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
2197
2198 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
2199 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
2200 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
2201
2202 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
2203 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
2204 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
2205 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
2206 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
2207 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
2208
2209 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
2210 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
2211 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
2212
2213 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
2214 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
2215 and vice versa.
2216
2217 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
2218 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
2219 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
2220 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
2221 [Steve Henson]
2222
2223 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
2224 [Steve Henson]
2225
2226 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
2227 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
2228 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
2229 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
2230 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
2231 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
2232 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
2233 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
2234 keys so we should be OK.
2235
2236 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
2237 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
2238 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
2239 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
2240 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
2241 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
2242 stay in the name of compatibility.
2243
2244 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
2245 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
2246 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
2247
2248 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
2249 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
2250 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
2251 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
2252 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
2253 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
2254 supplied key).
2255 [Steve Henson]
2256
2257 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
2258 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
2259 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
2260 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
2261 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
2262 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
2263 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
2264 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
2265 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
2266 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
2267 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
2268 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
2269 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
2270 [Steve Henson]
2271
2272 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
2273 [Steve Henson]
2274
2275 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
2276 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
2277 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
2278 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
2279 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
2280 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
2281 single self signed certificate. This means that:
2282 openssl verify ss.pem
2283 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
2284 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
2285 is OK.
2286 [Steve Henson]
2287
2288 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
2289 (and add it to external session representation).
2290 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
2291 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
2292 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
2293 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
2294 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
2295 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
2296 security holes.
2297 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
2298
2299 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
2300 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
2301 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
2302 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
2303
2304 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
2305 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
2306 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
2307 [Steve Henson]
2308
2309 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
2310 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
2311 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
2312 code.
2313 [Steve Henson]
2314
2315 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
2316 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
2317 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
2318
2319 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
2320 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
2321 certificate auxiliary information.
2322 [Steve Henson]
2323
2324 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
2325 the 'enc' command.
2326 [Steve Henson]
2327
2328 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
2329 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
2330 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
2331 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
2332 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
2333 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
2334 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
2335 [Richard Levitte]
2336
2337 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
2338 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
2339 [Steve Henson]
2340
2341 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
2342 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
2343 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
2344 manpages and fix a few bugs.
2345 [Steve Henson]
2346
2347 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
2348 [Steve Henson]
2349
2350 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
2351 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
2352 [Steve Henson]
2353
2354 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
2355 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
2356 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
2357 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
2358 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
2359 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
2360 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
2361 using the new 'x509' options.
2362
2363 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
2364 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
2365 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
2366 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
2367 for all purposes.
2368 [Steve Henson]
2369
2370 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
2371 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
2372 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
2373 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
2374 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
2375 [Mark Cox]
2376
2377 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
2378 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
2379 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
2380 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
2381 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
2382 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
2383 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
2384 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
2385 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
2386 the key length and effective key length are equal.
2387 [Steve Henson]
2388
2389 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
2390 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
2391 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
2392 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
2393 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
2394 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
2395 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
2396 [Steve Henson]
2397
2398 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
2399 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
2400 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
2401 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
2402 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
2403 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
2404 openssl.cnf for more info.
2405 [Steve Henson]
2406
2407 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
2408 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
2409 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
2410 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
2411 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
2412 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
2413 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
2414 md should be large enough anyway.
2415 [Bodo Moeller]
2416
2417 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
2418 for handling the random seed file.
2419
2420 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
2421 ca,
2422 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
2423 s_client,
2424 s_server,
2425 x509 (when signing).
2426 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
2427 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
2428 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
2429
2430 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
2431 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
2432 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
2433 that support '-rand'.
2434 [Bodo Moeller]
2435
2436 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
2437 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
2438 [Bodo Moeller]
2439
2440 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
2441 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
2442 [Bill Perry]
2443
2444 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
2445 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
2446 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
2447 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
2448 is suitable.
2449 [Steve Henson]
2450
2451 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
2452 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
2453 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
2454 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
2455 [Steve Henson]
2456
2457 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
2458 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
2459 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
2460 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
2461 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
2462 print out all the purposes.
2463 [Steve Henson]
2464
2465 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
2466 functions.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
2470 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
2471 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
2472 single function call.
2473 [Steve Henson]
2474
2475 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
2476 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
2477 [Andy Polyakov]
2478
2479 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
2480 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
2481 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
2482 [Steve Henson]
2483
2484 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
2485 when producing the local key id.
2486 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
2487
2488 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
2489 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
2490 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
2491 "server.pem".
2492 [Steve Henson]
2493
2494 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
2495 a public key to be input or output. For example:
2496 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
2497 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
2498 [Steve Henson]
2499
2500 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
2501 in the message. This was handled by allowing
2502 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
2503 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
2504
2505 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
2506 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
2507 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
2508 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
2509
2510 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
2511 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
2512 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
2513 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
2514 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
2515 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
2516 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
2517 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
2518 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
2519 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
2520 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
2521 trivial: move one line.
2522 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
2523
2524 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
2525 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
2526 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
2527 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
2528 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
2529 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
2530 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
2531 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
2532 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
2533 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
2534 with an event loop for example.
2535 [Steve Henson]
2536
2537 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
2538 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
2539 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
2540 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
2541 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
2542 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
2543 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
2544 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
2545 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
2546 [Steve Henson]
2547
2548 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
2549 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
2550 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
2551 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
2552 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
2553 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
2554 [Steve Henson]
2555
2556 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
2557 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
2558 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
2559 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
2560
2561 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
2562 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
2563 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
2564 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
2565 key generation.
2566 [Steve Henson]
2567
2568 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
2569 (still largely untested)
2570 [Bodo Moeller]
2571
2572 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
2573 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
2574 [Steve Henson]
2575
2576 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
2577 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
2578 [Steve Henson]
2579
2580 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
2581 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
2582 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
2583 [Bodo Moeller]
2584
2585 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
2586 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
2587 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
2588 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
2589 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
2590 [Steve Henson]
2591
2592 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
2593 [Andy Polyakov]
2594
2595 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
2596 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
2597 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
2598 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
2599 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
2600 in ca.
2601 [Steve Henson]
2602
2603 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
2604 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
2605 1.OU="Unit name 1"
2606 2.OU="Unit name 2"
2607 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
2608 [Steve Henson]
2609
2610 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
2611 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
2612 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
2613 are otherwise ignored at present.
2614 [Steve Henson]
2615
2616 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
2617 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
2618 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
2619 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
2620 copied until the next read.
2621 [Steve Henson]
2622
2623 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
2624 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
2625 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
2626 [Steve Henson]
2627
2628 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
2629 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
2630 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
2631 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
2632 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
2633 associated functions.
2634 [Steve Henson]
2635
2636 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
2637 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
2638 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
2639 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
2640 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
2641 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
2642 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
2643 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
2644 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
2645 memory BIOs.
2646 [Steve Henson]
2647
2648 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
2649 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
2650 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
2651 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
2652 [Bodo Moeller]
2653
2654 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
2655 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
2656 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
2657 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
2658 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
2659 functionality.
2660 [Steve Henson]
2661
2662 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
2663 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
2664 under Win32.
2665 [Steve Henson]
2666
2667 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
2668 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
2669 extensions to be obtained and added.
2670 [Steve Henson]
2671
2672 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
2673 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
2674 [Bodo Moeller]
2675
2676 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
2677
2678 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
2679 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2680
2681 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
2682 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
2683
2684 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
2685 program.
2686 [Steve Henson]
2687
2688 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
2689 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
2690 DH parameters contain its length).
2691
2692 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
2693 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
2694 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
2695 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
2696 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
2697 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
2698 utter importance to use
2699 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
2700 or
2701 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
2702 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
2703 attacks may become possible!
2704 [Bodo Moeller]
2705
2706 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
2707 [Bodo Moeller]
2708
2709 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
2710 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
2711 [Steve Henson]
2712
2713 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
2714 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
2715 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
2716 or long name.
2717 [Steve Henson]
2718
2719 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
2720 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
2721 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
2722 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
2723 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
2724 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
2725 private key operations.
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
2729 [Andy Polyakov]
2730
2731 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
2732 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
2733 to
2734 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
2735 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
2736 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
2737 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
2738 the password callback is called.
2739 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
2740
2741 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
2742
2743 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
2744 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
2745 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
2746 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
2747 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
2748 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
2749 this will work.
2750
2751 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
2752 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
2753 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
2754 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
2755 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
2756 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
2757 [Bodo Moeller]
2758
2759 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
2760 [Andy Polyakov]
2761
2762 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
2763 delete an unused file.
2764 [Ulf Möller]
2765
2766 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
2767 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
2768 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
2769 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
2770 [Steve Henson]
2771
2772 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
2773 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
2774 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
2775 of an error.
2776 [Bodo Moeller]
2777
2778 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
2779 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
2780 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2781
2782 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
2783 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
2784 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
2785 comparison" warnings.
2786 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
2787 [Steve Henson]
2788
2789 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
2790 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
2791 derived keys are printed to stderr.
2792 [Steve Henson]
2793
2794 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
2795 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
2796
2797 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
2798 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
2799
2800 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
2801 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
2802 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
2803
2804 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
2805 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
2806 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
2807 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
2808 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
2809 this bug.
2810 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
2811
2812 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
2813 The interface is as follows:
2814 Applications can use
2815 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
2816 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
2817 "off" is now the default.
2818 The library internally uses
2819 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
2820 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
2821 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
2822
2823 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
2824 even the default) are now avoided.
2825
2826 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
2827 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
2828 than just having a counter.
2829
2830 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
2831
2832 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
2833 extensions.
2834 [Bodo Moeller]
2835
2836 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
2837 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
2838 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
2839 Initial "mode" flags are:
2840
2841 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
2842 a single record has been written.
2843 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
2844 retries use the same buffer location.
2845 (But all of the contents must be
2846 copied!)
2847 [Bodo Moeller]
2848
2849 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_mode ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_mode
2850 worked.
2851
2852 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
2853 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
2854
2855 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
2856 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
2857 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
2858 [Steve Henson]
2859
2860 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
2861 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
2862 test programs.
2863 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
2864
2865 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
2866 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
2867 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
2868 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
2869 point to the end.
2870 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
2871 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
2872
2873 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
2874 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
2875 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
2876 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
2877 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
2878 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
2879 [Steve Henson]
2880
2881 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
2882 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
2883 necessary function names.
2884 [Steve Henson]
2885
2886 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
2887 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
2888 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
2889 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
2890 [Bodo Moeller]
2891
2892 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
2893 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
2894 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
2895 [Steve Henson]
2896
2897 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
2898 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
2899 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
2900 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
2901 such programs?)
2902 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
2903 need locks.
2904 [Bodo Moeller]
2905
2906 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
2907 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
2908 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
2909 [Bodo Moeller]
2910
2911 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
2912 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
2913 appropriate.
2914 [Bodo Moeller]
2915
2916 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
2917 for the encoded length.
2918 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
2919
2920 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
2921 [Steve Henson]
2922
2923 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
2924 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
2925 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
2926 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
2927 [Steve Henson]
2928
2929 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
2930 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
2931 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2932
2933 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
2934 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
2935 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
2936 unusual formatting.
2937 [Steve Henson]
2938
2939 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
2940 to use the new extension code.
2941 [Steve Henson]
2942
2943 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
2944 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
2945 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
2946 constant.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
2949 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
2950 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
2951 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
2952 [Bodo Moeller]
2953
2954 #if 0
2955 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
2956 [Ben Laurie]
2957 #else
2958 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
2959 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
2960 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
2961 #endif
2962
2963 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
2964 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
2965 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
2966 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
2967 [Ben Laurie]
2968
2969 *) DES library cleanups.
2970 [Ulf Möller]
2971
2972 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
2973 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
2974 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
2975 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
2976 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
2977 of v2.0.
2978 [Steve Henson]
2979
2980 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
2981 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
2982 [Bodo Moeller]
2983
2984 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
2985 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
2986 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
2987 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
2988 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
2989 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
2990 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
2991 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
2992 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
2993 [Steve Henson]
2994
2995 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
2996 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
2997 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
2998 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
2999 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
3000 value doesn't matter.
3001 [Steve Henson]
3002
3003 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
3004 support mutable.
3005 [Ben Laurie]
3006
3007 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
3008 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
3009 "linux-sparc" configuration.
3010 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
3011
3012 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
3013 [Ulf Möller]
3014
3015 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
3016 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
3017 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3018
3019 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
3020 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
3021
3022 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
3023 [Ben Laurie]
3024
3025 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
3026 [Ben Laurie]
3027
3028 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
3029 [Ben Laurie]
3030
3031 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
3032 [Bodo Moeller]
3033
3034
3035 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
3036
3037 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
3038
3039 *) Updated some demos.
3040 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
3041
3042 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
3043 [Wu Zhigang]
3044
3045 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
3046 [Steve Henson]
3047
3048 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
3049 [Steve Henson]
3050
3051 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
3052 instead of using a fixed path.
3053 [Bodo Moeller]
3054
3055 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
3056 [Andy Polyakov]
3057
3058 *) Improvements for VMS support.
3059 [Richard Levitte]
3060
3061
3062 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
3063
3064 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
3065 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
3066 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3067
3068 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
3069 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
3070 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
3071 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
3072 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
3073 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
3074 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
3075 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
3076 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
3077 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
3078 [Steve Henson]
3079
3080 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
3081 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
3082 [Steve Henson]
3083
3084 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
3085 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
3086 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
3087 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
3088 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
3089
3090 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
3091 [Bodo Moeller]
3092
3093 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
3094 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
3095 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
3096 [Steve Henson]
3097
3098 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
3099 [Ben Laurie]
3100
3101 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
3102 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
3103 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
3104 key elements as negative integers.
3105 [Steve Henson]
3106
3107 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
3108 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3109
3110 *) VMS support.
3111 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
3112
3113 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
3114 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
3115 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
3116 [Steve Henson]
3117
3118 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
3119 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
3120 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
3121 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
3122 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
3123 [Bodo Moeller]
3124
3125 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
3126 [Ulf Möller]
3127
3128 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
3129 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
3130 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
3131 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3132
3133 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
3134 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
3135 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
3136
3137 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
3138 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
3139 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
3140 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
3141 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
3142 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
3143 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
3144 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
3145 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
3146
3147 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
3148 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
3149 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
3150 does not influence s as it used to.
3151
3152 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
3153 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
3154 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
3155 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
3156 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
3157 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
3158 [Bodo Moeller]
3159
3160 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
3161 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
3162 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
3163 key type.
3164 [Steve Henson]
3165
3166 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
3167 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
3168 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
3169 and 'x509').
3170 [Steve Henson]
3171
3172 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
3173 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
3174 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
3175 extension option.
3176 [Steve Henson]
3177
3178 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
3179 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
3180 [Ben Laurie]
3181
3182 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
3183 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3184
3185 *) Support Mingw32.
3186 [Ulf Möller]
3187
3188 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
3189 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3190
3191 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
3192 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3193
3194 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
3195 [Ulf Möller]
3196
3197 *) Update HPUX configuration.
3198 [Anonymous]
3199
3200 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
3201 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3202
3203 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
3204 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
3205 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
3206 DER-encoded.)
3207 [Bodo Moeller]
3208
3209 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
3210 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
3211 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
3212 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
3213 now it really counts the depth.
3214 [Bodo Moeller]
3215
3216 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
3217 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
3218 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
3219 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
3220 didn't match the private key).
3221
3222 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
3223 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
3224 connection using the SSL_CTX).
3225 [Bodo Moeller]
3226
3227 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
3228 [Ulf Möller]
3229
3230 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
3231 David Harris.
3232 [Bodo Moeller]
3233
3234 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
3235 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
3236 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
3237 [Bodo Moeller]
3238
3239 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
3240 [Bodo Moeller]
3241
3242 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
3243 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
3244 such as /usr/local/bin.
3245 [Bodo Moeller]
3246
3247 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
3248 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
3249
3250 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
3251 [Ulf Möller]
3252
3253 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
3254 extension adding in x509 utility.
3255 [Steve Henson]
3256
3257 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
3258 [Ulf Möller]
3259
3260 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
3261 prototypes.
3262 [Steve Henson]
3263
3264 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
3265 [Ulf Möller]
3266
3267 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
3268 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
3269 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
3270 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
3271 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
3272 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
3273 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
3274 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
3275 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
3276 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
3277 [Steve Henson]
3278
3279 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
3280 [Bodo Moeller]
3281
3282 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
3283 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
3284 [Bodo Moeller]
3285
3286 *) Fix some race conditions.
3287 [Bodo Moeller]
3288
3289 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
3290 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
3291 [Steve Henson]
3292
3293 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
3294 [Ulf Möller]
3295
3296 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
3297 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
3298 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
3299 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
3300
3301 *) Fix lots of warnings.
3302 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3303
3304 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
3305 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
3306 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3307
3308 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
3309 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3310
3311 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
3312 [Ulf Möller]
3313
3314 *) Fix typos in error codes.
3315 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
3316
3317 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
3318 [Ulf Möller]
3319
3320 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
3321 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
3322
3323 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
3324 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
3325 [Steve Henson]
3326
3327 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
3328 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
3329 [Ben Laurie]
3330
3331 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
3332 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
3333 [Steve Henson]
3334
3335 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
3336 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
3337 [Steve Henson]
3338
3339 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
3340 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
3341 [Steve Henson]
3342
3343 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
3344 support typesafe stack.
3345 [Steve Henson]
3346
3347 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
3348 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
3349
3350 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
3351 old X509V3 handling code.
3352 [Steve Henson]
3353
3354 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
3355 [Ulf Möller]
3356
3357 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
3358 [Bodo Moeller]
3359
3360 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
3361 [Ben Laurie]
3362
3363 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
3364 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
3365
3366 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
3367 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
3368 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
3369 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
3370 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
3371 [Ben Laurie]
3372
3373 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
3374 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
3375 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
3376 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
3377 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
3378
3379 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
3380 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
3381 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
3382 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3383
3384 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
3385 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
3386 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
3387 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3388
3389 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
3390 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
3391 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
3392 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
3393 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
3394 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
3395 [Bodo Moeller]
3396
3397 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
3398 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
3399 [Bodo Moeller]
3400
3401 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
3402 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
3403 [Ulf Möller]
3404
3405 *) Tweaks to Configure
3406 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
3407
3408 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
3409 yet...
3410 [Steve Henson]
3411
3412 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
3413 [Ulf Möller]
3414
3415 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
3416 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
3417 [Ulf Möller]
3418
3419 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
3420 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
3421 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
3422 [Bodo Moeller]
3423
3424 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
3425 [Bodo Moeller]
3426
3427 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
3428 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
3429 [Steve Henson]
3430
3431 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
3432 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
3433 to library startup routines.
3434 [Steve Henson]
3435
3436 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
3437 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
3438 codes along the way.
3439 [Steve Henson]
3440
3441 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
3442 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
3443 objects to objects.h
3444 [Steve Henson]
3445
3446 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
3447 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
3448 [Steve Henson]
3449
3450 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
3451 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
3452
3453 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
3454 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
3455 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
3456
3457 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
3458 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
3459 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3460
3461 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
3462 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
3463 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
3464
3465
3466 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
3467
3468 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
3469 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
3470 [Ben Laurie]
3471
3472 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
3473 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
3474 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
3475 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
3476 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
3477
3478 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
3479 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
3480 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
3481 document.
3482 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3483
3484 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
3485 Malloc, Free.
3486 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
3487
3488 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
3489 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3490
3491 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
3492 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
3493 if someone would make that last step automatic.
3494 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
3495
3496 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
3497 [Ben Laurie]
3498
3499 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
3500 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
3501 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
3502 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
3503 [Steve Henson]
3504
3505 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
3506 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
3507 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
3508 [Steve Henson]
3509
3510 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
3511 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
3512 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
3513 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
3514 installed as `perl').
3515 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
3516
3517 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
3518 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
3519
3520 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
3521 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
3522 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
3523 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
3524 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
3525 [Steve Henson]
3526
3527 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
3528 [Ben Laurie]
3529
3530 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
3531 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
3532 is horrible: I feel ill....
3533 [Steve Henson]
3534
3535 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
3536 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
3537 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
3538 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
3539 [Steve Henson]
3540
3541 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
3542 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3543
3544 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
3545 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
3546 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
3547 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3548
3549 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
3550 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
3551 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
3552 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
3553 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
3554 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
3555 openssl_bio.xs.
3556 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3557
3558 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
3559 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
3560
3561 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
3562 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
3563
3564 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
3565 [Ben Laurie]
3566
3567 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
3568 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
3569 in CRLs.
3570 [Steve Henson]
3571
3572 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
3573 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
3574 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
3575 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
3576 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
3577 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
3578 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
3579 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
3580 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
3581 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
3582 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3583
3584 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
3585 [Ben Laurie]
3586
3587 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
3588 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
3589 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
3590 for linking it into DSOs.
3591 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3592
3593 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
3594 Fixed.
3595 [Ben Laurie]
3596
3597 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
3598 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
3599 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
3600 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
3601 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
3602 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3603
3604 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
3605 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
3606 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
3607 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
3608 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
3609 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
3610 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3611
3612 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
3613 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
3614 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
3615 encryption.
3616 [Ben Laurie]
3617
3618 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
3619 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
3620 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
3621 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
3622 [Steve Henson]
3623
3624 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
3625 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
3626 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
3627 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
3628 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
3629 field as blank.
3630 [Steve Henson]
3631
3632 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
3633 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
3634 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
3635 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
3636 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3637
3638 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
3639 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
3640 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
3641
3642 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
3643 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
3644
3645 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
3646 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
3647 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
3648 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
3649 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
3650 [Steve Henson]
3651
3652 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
3653 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
3654 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
3655 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
3656 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
3657 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
3658 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
3659 [Ben Laurie]
3660
3661 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
3662 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
3663 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
3664 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
3665 [Ben Laurie]
3666
3667 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
3668 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
3669
3670 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
3671 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
3672 [Steve Henson]
3673
3674 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
3675 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
3676 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
3677 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
3678 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
3679 (e.g. s_server).
3680 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
3681 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
3682 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
3683 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
3684 no way to reconfigure them.
3685 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
3686 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
3687 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
3688 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
3689 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
3690 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3691
3692 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
3693 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
3694 recognized by the users.
3695 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3696
3697 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
3698 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
3699 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
3700 already masked variable.
3701 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3702
3703 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
3704 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3705
3706 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
3707 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
3708 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
3709 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
3710
3711 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
3712 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
3713 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3714
3715 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
3716 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
3717 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
3718 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
3719 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
3720 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
3721 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
3722 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
3723 now, too.
3724 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3725
3726 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
3727 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
3728 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
3729
3730 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
3731 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
3732 config file.
3733 [Steve Henson]
3734
3735 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
3736 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
3737
3738 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
3739 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
3740 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
3741 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
3742 [Ben Laurie]
3743
3744 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
3745 [Steve Henson]
3746
3747 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
3748 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3749
3750 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
3751 [Ben Laurie]
3752
3753 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
3754 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
3755 [Steve Henson]
3756
3757 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
3758 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
3759 [Steve Henson]
3760
3761 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
3762 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
3763 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
3764 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
3765 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
3766 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
3767 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
3768 Ben Laurie]
3769
3770 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
3771 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3772
3773 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
3774 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
3775 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
3776 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
3777 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3778
3779 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
3780 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
3781 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
3782 [Steve Henson]
3783
3784 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
3785 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
3786 an example.
3787 [Steve Henson]
3788
3789 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
3790 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
3791 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
3792
3793 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
3794 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
3795 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
3796 build instructions.
3797 [Steve Henson]
3798
3799 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
3800 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
3801 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
3802 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
3803 [Steve Henson]
3804
3805 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
3806 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
3807 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
3808 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
3809 [Ben Laurie]
3810
3811 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
3812 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
3813 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
3814 so it wasn't spotted.
3815 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
3816
3817 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
3818 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
3819 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
3820 vectors if you have them.
3821 [Ben Laurie]
3822
3823 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
3824 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
3825 [Ben Laurie]
3826
3827 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
3828 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
3829 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
3830 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
3831 If you do a:
3832 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
3833 it will update them.
3834 [Steve Henson]
3835
3836 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
3837 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
3838 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
3839 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
3840 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
3841 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
3842 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
3843 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3844
3845 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
3846 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
3847 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
3848 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
3849 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
3850 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
3851 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
3852 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
3853 the crypto/md/ stuff).
3854 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3855
3856 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
3857 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
3858 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
3859 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
3860 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
3861 [Steve Henson]
3862
3863 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
3864 INTEGER code.
3865 [Steve Henson]
3866
3867 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
3868 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3869
3870 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
3871 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
3872
3873 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
3874 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
3875 [Ben Laurie]
3876
3877 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
3878 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
3879
3880 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
3881 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
3882
3883 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
3884 [Steve Henson]
3885
3886 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
3887 few typos.
3888 [Steve Henson]
3889
3890 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
3891 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
3892 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
3893 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
3894
3895 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
3896 [Steve Henson]
3897
3898 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
3899 [Steve Henson]
3900
3901 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
3902 [Steve Henson]
3903
3904 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
3905 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
3906 [Steve Henson]
3907
3908 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
3909 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
3910 CA extensions.
3911 [Steve Henson]
3912
3913 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
3914 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
3915 [Steve Henson]
3916
3917 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
3918 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
3919 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
3920 [Steve Henson]
3921
3922 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
3923 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
3924 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
3925 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
3926 properly to be processed.
3927 [Steve Henson]
3928
3929 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
3930 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
3931 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
3932 [Ben Laurie]
3933
3934 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
3935 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
3936
3937 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
3938 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
3939 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
3940 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
3941 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
3942 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
3943 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
3944 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
3945 or delete all the .err files.
3946 [Steve Henson]
3947
3948 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
3949 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
3950 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
3951 to regenerate it if needed.
3952 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
3953 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
3954
3955 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
3956 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3957
3958 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
3959 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
3960 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
3961 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
3962 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
3963 [Steve Henson]
3964
3965 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
3966 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
3967
3968 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
3969 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
3970
3971 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
3972 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
3973 error, but didn't set one).
3974 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
3975
3976 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
3977 [Ben Laurie]
3978
3979 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
3980 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
3981 [Steve Henson]
3982
3983 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
3984 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
3985
3986 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
3987 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
3988 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
3989 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
3990 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
3991 OID is not part of the table.
3992 [Steve Henson]
3993
3994 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
3995 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
3996 [Ben Laurie]
3997
3998 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
3999 [Ben Laurie]
4000
4001 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
4002 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
4003 was "1234").
4004 [Steve Henson]
4005
4006 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
4007 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
4008
4009 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
4010 NULL pointers.
4011 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4012
4013 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
4014 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4015
4016 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
4017 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
4018
4019 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
4020 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
4021
4022 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
4023 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
4024 [Ben Laurie]
4025
4026 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
4027 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
4028 [Steve Henson]
4029
4030 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
4031 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4032
4033 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
4034 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4035
4036 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
4037 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4038
4039 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
4040 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4041
4042 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
4043 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
4044 unused in the certificate verification process.
4045 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4046
4047 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
4048 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
4052 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
4053 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
4054
4055 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
4056 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
4057 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
4058 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
4059 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
4060
4061 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
4062 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
4063 [Steve Henson]
4064
4065 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
4066 [Steve Henson]
4067
4068 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
4069 [Paul Sutton]
4070
4071 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
4072 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
4073
4074 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
4075 [Ben Laurie]
4076
4077 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
4078 [Ben Laurie]
4079
4080 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
4081 [Ben Laurie]
4082
4083 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
4084 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
4085 other error libraries.
4086 [Steve Henson]
4087
4088 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
4089 [Steve Henson]
4090
4091 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
4092 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
4093 be read in.
4094 [Steve Henson]
4095
4096 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
4097 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
4098 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
4099 the new set of documenation files.
4100 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4101
4102 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
4103 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
4104 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
4105 number of arguments.
4106 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
4107
4108 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
4109 [Ben Laurie]
4110
4111 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
4112 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
4113 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
4114
4115 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
4116 [Ben Laurie]
4117
4118 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
4119 nextstep
4120 ncr-scde
4121 unixware-2.0
4122 unixware-2.0-pentium
4123 sco5-cc.
4124 [Ben Laurie]
4125
4126 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
4127 before they are needed.
4128 [Ben Laurie]
4129
4130 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
4131 [Ben Laurie]
4132
4133
4134 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
4135
4136 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
4137 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
4138 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4139
4140 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
4141 [Paul Sutton]
4142
4143 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
4144 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
4145 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4146
4147 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
4148 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
4149 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
4150
4151 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
4152 when "ssleay" is still not found.
4153 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4154
4155 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
4156 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
4157
4158 *) Updated the README file.
4159 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4160
4161 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
4162 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
4163 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4164
4165 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
4166 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
4167 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4168
4169 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
4170 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
4171 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
4172 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
4173 o removed obsolete TODO file
4174 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
4175 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4176
4177 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
4178 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
4179 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
4180 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
4181 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
4182 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
4183 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4184
4185 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
4186 [Mark J. Cox]
4187
4188 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
4189 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
4190 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
4191 summer 1998.
4192 [The OpenSSL Project]
4193
4194
4195 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
4196
4197 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
4198 [Eric A. Young]
4199
4200 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
4201 [Eric A. Young]
4202
4203 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
4204 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
4205 [Eric A. Young]
4206
4207 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
4208 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
4209 available).
4210 [Eric A. Young]
4211
4212 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
4213 binary structures
4214 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
4215
4216 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
4217 [Eric A. Young]
4218
4219 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
4220 [Eric A. Young]
4221
4222 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
4223 [Eric A. Young]
4224
4225 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
4226 [Eric A. Young]
4227
4228 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
4229 [Eric A. Young]
4230
4231 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
4232 [Eric A. Young]
4233
4234 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
4235 [Eric A. Young]
4236
4237 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
4238 [Eric A. Young]
4239
4240 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
4241 [Eric A. Young]
4242
4243 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
4244 [Eric A. Young]
4245
4246 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
4247 [Eric A. Young]
4248
4249 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
4250 [Eric A. Young]
4251
4252 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
4253 [Eric A. Young]
4254
4255 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
4256 [Eric A. Young]
4257
4258 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
4259 [Eric A. Young]
4260
4261 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
4262 [Eric A. Young]
4263
4264 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
4265 [Eric A. Young]
4266
4267 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
4268 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
4269 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4270 [Eric A. Young]
4271
4272 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
4273 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
4274 [Eric A. Young]
4275
4276 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
4277 [Eric A. Young]
4278
4279 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
4280 [Eric A. Young]
4281
4282 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
4283 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
4284 [Eric A. Young]
4285
4286 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
4287 [Eric A. Young]
4288
4289 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
4290 [Eric A. Young]
4291
4292 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
4293 bytes sent in the client random.
4294 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
4295
