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