5 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
8 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
9 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
10 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
11 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
12 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
13 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
14
15 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
16 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.

18 [Steve Henson]
19
20 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
21 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
22 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
23 [Steve Henson]
24
25 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
26 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
27 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
28 supported signature algorithms.
29 [Steve Henson]
30
31 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
32 [Steve Henson]
33
34 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
35 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
36 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
37 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
38 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
39 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
40 certificate and specify the whole chain.
41 [Steve Henson]
42
43 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
44 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
45 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
46 to have similar checks in it.
47
48 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
49 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
50 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
51 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
52 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
53 [Steve Henson]
54
55 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
56 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
57 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
58 shared signature algorithms.
59 [Steve Henson]
60
61 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
62 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
63 to support them.
64 [Steve Henson]
65
66 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
67 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
68 it couldn't be removed.
69 [Steve Henson]
70
71 *) Initial SSL tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
72 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
73 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
74 tracing.
75 [Steve Henson]
76
77 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
78 OID NID.
79 [Steve Henson]
80
81 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
82 certificates.
83 [Steve Henson]
84
85 *) RFC 5878 support.
86 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
87
88 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
89 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
90 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
91 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
92 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
93 [Steve Henson]
94
95 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
96 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
97 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
98 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
99 to set list of supported curves.
100 [Steve Henson]
101
102 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
103 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
104 to print out received values.
105 [Steve Henson]
106
107 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
108 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
109 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
110 [Steve Henson]
111
112 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
113 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
117 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
120 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
121 certificates.
122 [Steve Henson]
123
124 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
125 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
126 the new parameter format automatically.
127 [Steve Henson]
128
129 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
130 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
131 [Steve Henson]
132
133 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
134 [Steve Henson]
135
136 *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
137 test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
138 failures.
139 [Steve Henson]
140
141 *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
142 sign or verify all in one operation.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
146 test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
147 the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
148 [Steve Henson]
149
150 *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
151 [Steve Henson]
152
153 *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
156 *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
157 FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
158 generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
159 demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
160 fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
161 [Steve Henson]
162
163 *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
164 based on NID.
165 [Steve Henson]
166
167 *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
168 New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
169 combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
170 [Steve Henson]
171
172 *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
173 and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
174 [Steve Henson]
175
176 *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
177 FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
178
179 *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
180 POST to handle HMAC cases.
181 [Steve Henson]
182
183 *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
184 to return numberical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
185 [Steve Henson]
186
187 *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
188 FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implmeneted
189 outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
190 [Steve Henson]
191
192 *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
193 there is no mutiple of the block length between min_len and
194 max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
195 of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
196 to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
197 requested amount of entropy.
198 [Steve Henson]
199
200 *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
201 information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
202 [Steve Henson]
203
204 *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
205 must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
206 message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
207 support.
208 [Steve Henson]
209
210 *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
211 of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
212 to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
213 [Steve Henson]
214
215 *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
216 Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
217 there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
218 will never use XTS mode.
219 [Steve Henson]
220
221 *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
222 to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
223 performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
224 set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
225 Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
226 the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
227 [Steve Henson]
228
229 *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
230 This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
231 shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
232 anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
233 [Steve Henson]
234
235 *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
236 Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
237 instantiate at maximum supported strength.
238 [Steve Henson]
239
240 *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
241 [Steve Henson]
242
243 *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
244 [Steve Henson]
245
246 *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
247 leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
248 [Steve Henson]
249
250 *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
251 anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
252 [Steve Henson]
253
254 *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
255 files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
256 [Steve Henson]
257
258 *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
259 fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
260 conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
261 util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
262 and rename any affected symbols.
263 [Steve Henson]
264
265 *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
266 FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
269 *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
270 return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
271 tiny fips sign and verify functions.
272 [Steve Henson]
273
274 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
275 [Steve Henson]
276
277 *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
278 and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
279 instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
280 [Steve Henson]
281
282 *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
283 Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
284 [Steve Henson]
285
286 *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
287 setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
288 called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
289 can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
290 bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
291 length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
292 set before the key.
293 [Steve Henson]
294
295 *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
296 underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
297 including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
298 an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
299 do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
300 is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
301 no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
302 input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
303 [Steve Henson]
304
305 *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
306 path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
307 [Steve Henson]
308
309 *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
310
311 void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
312 void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
313
314 for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
315 new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
316 cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
317 SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
318 empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
319 not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
320
321 A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
322 This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
323 by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
324 security.
325 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
326
327 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_diff to find the difference in days
328 and seconds between two tm structures. This will be used to provide
329 additional functionality for ASN1_TIME.
330 [Steve Henson]
331
332 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
333 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
334 [Steve Henson]
335
336 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
337 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
338 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
339 setting is used: whether to trust or reject.
340 [Steve Henson]
341
342 *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
343 parameters by name.
344 [Steve Henson]
345
346 *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
347 Add CMAC pkey methods.
348 [Steve Henson]
349
350 *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
351 browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
352 renegotiated requesting a certificate.
353 [Steve Henson]
354
355 *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
356 should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
357 multi-process servers.
358 [Steve Henson]
359
360 *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
361 return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
362 BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
363 can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
364 RAND_METHOD structure.
365 [Steve Henson]
366
367 *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
368 a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
369 is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
370 whose return value is often ignored.
371 [Steve Henson]
372
373 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
374
375 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
379 if renegotiating.
380 [Steve Henson]
381
382 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
383
384 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
385 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to avoid DoS attack.
386
387 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
388 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
389 (CVE-2012-2333)
390 [Steve Henson]
391
392 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
393 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
394 [Steve Henson]
395
396 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
397 approved.
398 [Steve Henson]
399
400 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
401
402 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
403 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
404 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
405 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
406 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
407 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
408 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
409 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
410 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
411 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
412 [Steve Henson]
413
414 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
415 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
416 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
417 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
418 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
419 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
420 client side.
421 [Andy Polyakov]
422
423 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
424
425 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
426 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
427 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
428
429 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
430 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
431 (CVE-2012-2110)
432 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
433
434 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
435 [Adam Langley]
436
437 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
438 record length exceeds 255 bytes:
439
440 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
441 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
442 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
443 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
444 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
445 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
446 Most broken servers should now work.
447 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
448 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
449 [Steve Henson]
450
451 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
452 [Andy Polyakov]
453
454 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
455
456 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
457 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
458 [Steve Henson]
459
460 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
461 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
462 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
463 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
464 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
465 [Steve Henson]
466
467 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
468 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
469 [Steve Henson]
470
471 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
472 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
473 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
474 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
475 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
476 [Steve Henson]
477
478 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
479 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
480
481 *) Add support for SCTP.
482 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
483
484 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
485 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
486
487 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
488
489 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
490 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
491 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
492 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
493 - s390x: z196 support;
494 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
495
496 [Andy Polyakov]
497
498 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
499 (removal of unnecessary code)
500 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
501
502 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
503 [Eric Rescorla]
504
505 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
506 [Eric Rescorla]
507
508 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
509 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
510 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
511 by Google.
512 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
513
514 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
515 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
516 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
517 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
518 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
519
520 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
521 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
522 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
523
524 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
525 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
526 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
527
528 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
529 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
530 implementations).
531 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
532
533 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
534 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
535 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
536 [Steve Henson]
537
538 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
539 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
540 particular PSS.
541 [Steve Henson]
542
543 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
544 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
545 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
546 [Steve Henson]
547
548 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
549 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
550 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
551 the appropriate parameters.
552 [Steve Henson]
553
554 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
555 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
556 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
557 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
558 against a number of sample certificates.
559 [Steve Henson]
560
561 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
562 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
563
564 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
565 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
566
567 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
568 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
569 parameters r, s.
570 [Steve Henson]
571
572 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
573 RFC3211.
574 [Steve Henson]
575
576 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
577 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
578 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
579 password based CMS).
580 [Steve Henson]
581
582 *) Session-handling fixes:
583 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
584 but also support Session Tickets.
585 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
586 presented a ticket with an expired session.
587 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
588 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
589 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
590 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
591
592 *) Fix PSK session representation.
593 [Bodo Moeller]
594
595 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
596
597 This work was sponsored by Intel.
598 [Andy Polyakov]
599
600 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
601 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
602 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
603 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
604 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
605 [Steve Henson]
606
607 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
608 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
609 [Steve Henson]
610
611 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
612 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
613 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
614 [Steve Henson]
615
616 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
617 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
618 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
619 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
620 [Steve Henson]
621
622 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
623 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
624 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
625 [Steve Henson]
626
627 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
628 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
629
630 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
631 [Steve Henson]
632
633 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
634 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
635 [Steve Henson]
636
637 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
638 [Steve Henson]
639
640 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
641 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
642 [Steve Henson]
643
644 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
645 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
646 [Steve Henson]
647
648 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
649 [Steve Henson]
650
651 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
652 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
653 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
654 [Steve Henson]
655
656 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
657 [Steve Henson]
658
659 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
660 [Steve Henson]
661
662 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
663 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
664 [Steve Henson]
665
666 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
667 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
668 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
669 [Steve Henson]
670
671 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
672 [Steve Henson]
673
674 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
675 and enable MD5.
676 [Steve Henson]
677
678 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
679 FIPS modules versions.
680 [Steve Henson]
681
682 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
683 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
684 until after the certificate request message is received.
685 [Steve Henson]
686
687 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
688 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
689 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
690 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
691 [Steve Henson]
692
693 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
694 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
695 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
696 support yet and no support for client certificates.
697 [Steve Henson]
698
699 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
700 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
701 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
702 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
703 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
704 and version checking.
705 [Steve Henson]
706
707 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
708 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
709 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
710 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
711 [Steve Henson]
712
713 *) Add SRP support.
714 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
715
716 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
717 [Steve Henson]
718
719 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
720 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
721 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
722
723 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
724 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
725 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
726 [Steve Henson]
727
728 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
729 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
730
731 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
732 a few changes are required:
733
734 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
735 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
736 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
737 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
738 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
739 [Steve Henson]
740
741 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
742
743 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
744 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
745 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
746 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
747 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
748 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
749 an MMA defence is not necessary.
750 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
751 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
752 [Steve Henson]
753
754 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
755 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
756 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
757 [Steve Henson]
758
759 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
760
761 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
762 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
763 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
764 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
765 [Antonio Martin]
766
767 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
768
769 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
770 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
771 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
772 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
773 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
774 paper describing this attack can be found at:
775 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
776 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
777 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
778 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
779 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
780 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
781 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
782
783 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
784 (CVE-2011-4576)
785 [Adam Langley (Google)]
786
787 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
788 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
789 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
790 [Adam Langley (Google)]
791
792 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
793 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
794
795 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
796 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
797 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
798 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
799
800 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
801 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
802
803 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
804 [Adam Langley (Google)]
805
806 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
807 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
808
809 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
810 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
811 [Adam Langley (Google)]
812
813 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
814 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
815 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
816
817 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
818 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
819 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
820 the last update always remained unused).
821 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
822
823 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
824 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
825
826 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
827
828 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
829 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
830 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
831
832 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
833 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
834 [Adam Langley (Google)]
835
836 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
837 [Bodo Moeller]
838
839 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
840 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
841 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
842 [Steve Henson]
843
844 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
845 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
846
847 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
848
849 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
850
851 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
852
853 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
854 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
855
856 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
857 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
858 ambiguous.
859 [Steve Henson]
860
861 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
862
863 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
864 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
865 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
866 [Steve Henson]
867
868 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
869 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
870 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
871 [Ben Laurie]
872
873 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
874
875 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
876 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
877 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
878 [Steve Henson]
879
880 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
881 a DLL.
882 [Steve Henson]
883
884 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
885
886 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
887 (CVE-2010-1633)
888 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
889
890 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
891
892 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
893 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
894 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
895 [Steve Henson]
896
897 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
901 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
902 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
903
904 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
905 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
906 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
907 [Steve Henson]
908
909 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
910 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
911 [Steve Henson]
912
913 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
914 some responders need this.
915 [Steve Henson]
916
917 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
918 correctly.
919 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
920
921 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
922 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
923 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
924 [Steve Henson]
925
926 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
927 [Steve Henson]
928
929 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
930 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
931 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
932 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
933 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
934 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
935 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
936 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
937 [Steve Henson]
938
939 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
940 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
941 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
942 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
943
944 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
945 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
946
947 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
948 be used on C++.
949 [Steve Henson]
950
951 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
952 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
953 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
954 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
955 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
956 attempting to work them out.
957 [Steve Henson]
958
959 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
960 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
961 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
962 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
963 [Steve Henson]
964
965 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
966 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
967 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
968 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
969 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
970 [Steve Henson]
971
972 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
973 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
974 you can do:
975
976 openssl sha256 foo
977
978 as well as:
979
980 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
981
982 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
983
984 [Steve Henson]
985
986 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
987 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
988
989 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
990 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
991
992 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
993 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
994 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
995 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
996 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
997 [Steve Henson]
998
999 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1000 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1001 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1002 [Steve Henson]
1003
1004 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1005 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1006 [Steve Henson]
1007
1008 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1009 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1010
1011 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1012 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1013 [Steve Henson]
1014
1015 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1016 [Ben Laurie]
1017
1018 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1019 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1020 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1021 CONF_VALUE.
1022 [Ben Laurie]
1023
1024 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1025 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1026 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1027 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1028 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1029 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1030 [Steve Henson]
1031
1032 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1033 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1034
1035 This work was sponsored by Google.
1036 [Steve Henson]
1037
1038 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1039 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1040 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1041 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1042 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1043 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1044 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1045 default.
1046
1047 This work was sponsored by Google.
1048 [Steve Henson]
1049
1050 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1051
1052 This work was sponsored by Google.
1053 [Steve Henson]
1054
1055 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1056 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1057 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1058 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1059
1060 This work was sponsored by Google.
1061 [Steve Henson]
1062
1063 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1064 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1065 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1066 CRL functionality in future.
1067
1068 This work was sponsored by Google.
1069 [Steve Henson]
1070
1071 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1072
1073 This work was sponsored by Google.
1074 [Steve Henson]
1075
1076 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1077 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1078
1079 This work was sponsored by Google.
1080 [Steve Henson]
1081
1082 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1083 and URI types are currently supported.
1084
1085 This work was sponsored by Google.
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1089 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1090 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1091 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1092 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1093 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1094 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1095 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1096
1097 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1098 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1099 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1100
1101 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1102 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1103 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1104 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1105
1106 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1107 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1108 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1109 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1110 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1111 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1112 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1113 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1114 of &errno.)
1115 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1116
1117 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1118 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1119 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1120
1121 This work was sponsored by Google.
1122 [Steve Henson]
1123
1124 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1125 [Ben Laurie]
1126
1127 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1128 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1129 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1130 [Ben Laurie]
1131
1132 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1133 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1134 [Nick Mathewson]
1135
1136 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1137 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1138 [Ben Laurie]
1139
1140 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1141 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1142 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1143 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1144 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1145 content types and variants.
1146 [Steve Henson]
1147
1148 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1149 [Steve Henson]
1150
1151 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1152 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1153 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1154 files from the associated perl scripts.
1155 [Steve Henson]
1156
1157 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1158 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1159 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1160
1161 *) s390x assembler pack.
1162 [Andy Polyakov]
1163
1164 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1165 "family."
1166 [Andy Polyakov]
1167
1168 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1169 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1170 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1171 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1172 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1173 to use. For example, specify an option
1174
1175 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1176
1177 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1178 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1179 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1180 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1181 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1182 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1183
1184 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1185 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1186 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1187 return non-zero for success.
1188
1189 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1190 by using
1191
1192 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1193 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1194
1195 where
1196
1197 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1198 void *arg;
1199
1200 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1201 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1202 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1203 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1204 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1205 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1206 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1207 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1208 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1209
1210 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1211 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1212 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1213 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1214 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1215 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1216
1217 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1218 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1219 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1220 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1221 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1222 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1223
1224 [Bodo Moeller]
1225
1226 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1227 MAC.
1228
1229 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1230
1231 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1232 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1233 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1234 supported.
1235
1236 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1237 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1238 SSL_SESSION.
1239
1240 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1241 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1242 with no application modification.
1243
1244 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1245 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1246
1247 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1248 or server extensions to be examined.
1249
1250 This work was sponsored by Google.
1251 [Steve Henson]
1252
1253 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1254 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1255 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1256
1257 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1258 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1259 ciphersuite support.
1260 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1261
1262 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1263 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1264 to output in BER and PEM format.
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1268 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1269 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1270 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1271 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1272 [Steve Henson]
1273
1274 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1275 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1276 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1277 utility.
1278 [Steve Henson]
1279
1280 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1281 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1282 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1283 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1284 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1285 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1286 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1287 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1288 enabled again.
1289
1290 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1291 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1292 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1293 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1294
1295 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1296 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1297 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1298 the default order.
1299 [Bodo Moeller]
1300
1301 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1302 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1303 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1304 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1305 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1306 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1307 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1308 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1309 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1310
1311 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1312 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1313 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1314 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1315 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1316 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1317 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1318 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1319 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1320 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1321 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1322 kinds of kludges.
1323
1324 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1325 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1326 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1327
1328 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1329 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1330 "CAMELLIA256".
1331 [Bodo Moeller]
1332
1333 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1334 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1335 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1336 [Nils Larsch]
1337
1338 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1339 it yet and it is largely untested.
1340 [Steve Henson]
1341
1342 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1343 [Nils Larsch]
1344
1345 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1346 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1347 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1348 [Steve Henson]
1349
1350 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1351 [Andy Polyakov]
1352
1353 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1354 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1355 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1356 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1357 [Steve Henson]
1358
1359 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1360 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1361 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1362 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1363 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1364 [Steve Henson]
1365
1366 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1367 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1368 [Cryptocom]
1369
1370 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1371 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1372 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1373 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1374 [Steve Henson]
1375
1376 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1377 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1378 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1379 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1380 [Steve Henson]
1381
1382 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1383 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1384 [Steve Henson]
1385
1386 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1387 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1388 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1389 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1390 [Steve Henson]
1391
1392 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1393 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1394 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1395 [Steve Henson]
1396
1397 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1398 utility.
1399 [Steve Henson]
1400
1401 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1402 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1403 [Steve Henson]
1404
1405 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1406 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1407 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1408 if necessary.
1409 [Steve Henson]
1410
1411 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1412 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1413 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1414 [Steve Henson]
1415
1416 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1417 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1418 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1419 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1420 [Steve Henson]
1421
1422 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1423 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1424 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1425 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1426 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1427 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1428 [Douglas Stebila]
1429
1430 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1431 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1432 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1433 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1434 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1435
1436 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1437 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1438 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1439 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1440 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1441 protocol).
1442
1443 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1444 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1445 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1446 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1447
1448 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1449 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1450 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1451 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1452 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1453
1454 aECDH - ECDH cert
1455 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1456 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1457
1458 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1459 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1460
1461 [Bodo Moeller]
1462
1463 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1464 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1465 [Steve Henson]
1466
1467 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1468 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1469 [Steve Henson]
1470
1471 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1472 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1473 functional reference processing.
1474 [Steve Henson]
1475
1476 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1477 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1478 process.
1479 [Steve Henson]
1480
1481 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1482 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1483 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1484 [Steve Henson]
1485
1486 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1487 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1488 application to support multiple signers.
1489 [Steve Henson]
1490
1491 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1492 digest MAC.
1493 [Steve Henson]
1494
1495 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1496 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1497 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1498 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1499 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1500 [Steve Henson]
1501
1502 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1503 new API.
1504 [Steve Henson]
1505
1506 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1507 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1508 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1509 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1510 a no op.
1511 [Steve Henson]
1512
1513 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1514 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1515 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1516 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1517 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1518 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1519 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1520 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1521 [Steve Henson]
1522
1523 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1524 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1525 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1526 between digests and public key types.
1527 [Steve Henson]
1528
1529 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1530 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1531 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1532 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1533 [Steve Henson]
1534
1535 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1536 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1537 key ASN1 method.
1538 [Steve Henson]
1539
1540 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1541 [Steve Henson]
1542
1543 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1544 pkeyutl.
1545 [Steve Henson]
1546
1547 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1548 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1549 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1550 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1551 pkey, genpkey.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 *) BeOS support.
1555 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1556
1557 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1558 manual pages.
1559 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1560
1561 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1562 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1563 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1564 functionality for RSA.
1565 [Steve Henson]
1566
1567 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1568 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1569 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1570 [Steve Henson]
1571
1572 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1573 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1574 [Steve Henson]
1575
1576 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1577 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1578 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1579 [Steve Henson]
1580
1581 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1582 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1583 [Douglas Stebila]
1584
1585 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1586 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1587 [Steve Henson]
1588
1589 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1590 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1591 type.
1592 [Steve Henson]
1593
1594 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1595 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1596 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1597 structure.
1598 [Steve Henson]
1599
1600 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1601 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1602 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1603 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1604 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1605 of public and private key structures.
1606 [Steve Henson]
1607
1608 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1609 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1610 [Douglas Stebila]
1611
1612 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1613 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1614 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1615
1616 New ciphersuites:
1617 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1618 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1619
1620 New functions:
1621 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1622 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1623 SSL_get_psk_identity
1624 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1625
1626 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1627
1628 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1629 and response verification functionality.
1630 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1631
1632 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1633 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1634 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1635 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1636 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1637 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1638 server_name extension.
1639
1640 New functions (subject to change):
1641
1642 SSL_get_servername()
1643 SSL_get_servername_type()
1644 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1645
1646 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1647
1648 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1649 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1650 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1651 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1652 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1653
1654 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1655
1656 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1657 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1658 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1659 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1660 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1661 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1662 option.
1663
1664 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1665
1666 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1667 [Andy Polyakov]
1668
1669 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1670 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1671 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1672 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1673 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1674 [Andy Polyakov]
1675
1676 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1677 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1678 macro.
1679 [Bodo Moeller]
1680
1681 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1682 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1683 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1684 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1685 [Andy Polyakov]
1686
1687 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1688 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1689 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1690 using the maximum available value.
1691 [Steve Henson]
1692
1693 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1694 in addition to the text details.
1695 [Bodo Moeller]
1696
1697 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1698 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1699 handle several customised structures at all.
1700 [Steve Henson]
1701
1702 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1703 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1704 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1705 [Steve Henson]
1706
1707 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1708 [Steve Henson]
1709
1710 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1711 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1712 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1713 [Steve Henson]
1714
1715 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1716 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1717 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1718 [Nils Larsch]
1719
1720 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1721 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1722 all fields.
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1726 [Steve Henson]
1727
1728 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1729 [NTT]
1730
1731 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
1732
1733 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1734 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1735 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1736 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1737 [Antonio Martin]
1738
1739 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
1740
1741 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1742 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1743 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1744 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1745 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1746 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1747 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1748 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1749 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1750 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1751 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1752 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1753 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1754
1755 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
1756 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
1757
1758 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1759 (CVE-2011-4576)
1760 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1761
1762 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1763 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1764 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1765 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1766
1767 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1768 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1769 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1770 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1771
1772 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1773 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1774
1775 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1776 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1777
1778 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1779 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1780 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1781
1782 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1783 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1784 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1785
1786 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1787 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1788 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1789 the last update always remained unused).
1790 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1791
1792 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1793 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
1794 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1795
1796 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1797 [Bodo Moeller]
1798
1799 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1800 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1801
1802 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1803
1804 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1805
1806 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
1807
1808 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1809 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1810
1811 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1812 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1813 ambiguous.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
1817
1818 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1819 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1820 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1821 [Steve Henson]
1822
1823 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1824 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1825 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1826 [Ben Laurie]
1827
1828 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
1829
1830 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1831 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1832 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1833 [Steve Henson]
1834
1835 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
1838 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
1839 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
1840 some broken encodings work correctly.
1841 [Steve Henson]
1842
1843 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
1844 is also one of the inputs.
1845 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1846
1847 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
1848 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
1849 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
1850 etc are non-op.
1851 [Steve Henson]
1852
1853 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
1854
1855 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
1856 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
1857
1858 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
1859 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
1860 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
1861
1862 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
1863 common in certificates and some applications which only call
1864 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
1865 [Steve Henson]
1866
1867 *) VMS fixes:
1868 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
1869 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
1870 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
1871 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
1872
1873 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
1874
1875 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
1876 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
1877 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
1878 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
1879 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
1880 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
1881 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
1882 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
1883
1884 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
1885 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
1886 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
1887
1888 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
1889
1890 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
1891 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
1892
1893 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
1894 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
1895 [Bodo Moeller]
1896
1897 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
1898 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
1899 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
1900 [Steve Henson]
1901
1902 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
1903 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
1904 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
1905 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
1906 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
1907 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
1908 [Steve Henson]
1909
1910 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
1911 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
1912 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
1913 [Steve Henson]
1914
1915 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
1916 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
1917 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
1918 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
1919 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
1920 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
1921 CVE-2009-4355.
1922 [Steve Henson]
1923
1924 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
1925 change when encrypting or decrypting.
1926 [Bodo Moeller]
1927
1928 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
1929 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
1930 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
1931 [Steve Henson]
1932
1933 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
1934 [Steve Henson]
1935
1936 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
1937 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
1938 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
1939 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
1940 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
1941 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
1942 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
1943 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
1944 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
1945 [Steve Henson]
1946
1947 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
1948 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
1949 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
1950 [Steve Henson]
1951
1952 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
1953 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
1954 [Steve Henson]
1955
1956 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
1957 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
1958 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
1959 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
1960 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
1961 know what you are doing.
1962 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
1963
1964 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
1965 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
1966 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
1967 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
1968 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
1969 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
1970 the handshake.
1971 [Steve Henson]
1972
1973 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
1974 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
1975 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
1976 correctly.
1977 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1978
1979 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
1980 warnings in other configurations.
1981 [Steve Henson]
1982
1983 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
1984 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
1985 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
1986 systems need.
1987 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
1988
1989 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
1990 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
1991 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
1992
1993 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
1994 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
1995 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
1996 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
1997 [Steve Henson]
1998
1999 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2000 and restored.
2001 [Steve Henson]
2002
2003 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2004 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2005 clash.
2006 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2007
2008 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2009 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2010 other than a simple chain.
2011 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2012
2013 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2014 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2015 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2016 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2017 [Steve Henson]
2018
2019 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2020 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2021 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2022 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2023 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2024 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2025 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2026 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2027 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2028
2029 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2030 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2031 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2032 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2033 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2034 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2035 (CVE-2009-1377)
2036 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2037
2038 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2039 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2040 [Daniel Mentz]
2041
2042 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2043 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2044
2045 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2046 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2047
2048 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2049
2050 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2051 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2052 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2053 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2054 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2055 you're doing.
2056 [Ben Laurie]
2057
2058 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2059
2060 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2061 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2062 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2063 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2064
2065 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2066 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2067 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2068 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2069
2070 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2071 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2072 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2073 [Steve Henson]
2074
2075 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2076 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2077 level.
2078 [Steve Henson]
2079
2080 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2081 to handle some structures.
2082 [Steve Henson]
2083
2084 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2085 for a '\n'
2086 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2087
2088 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2089 [Matthieu Herrb]
2090
2091 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2092 [Steve Henson]
2093
2094 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2095 [Steve Henson]
2096
2097 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2098 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2099 chosen compiler.
2100 [Ben Laurie]
2101
2102 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2103
2104 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2105 (CVE-2008-5077).
2106 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2107
2108 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2109 [Ben Laurie]
2110
2111 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2112 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2113 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2114 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2115
2116 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2117 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2118
2119 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2120 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2121 [Bodo Moeller]
2122
2123 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2124 s_client and s_server.
2125 [Ben Laurie]
2126
2127 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2128 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2129
2130 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2131 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2132
2133 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2134 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2135 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2136 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2137 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2138 [Bodo Moeller]
2139
2140 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2141
2142 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2143 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2144 [PR #1679]
2145
2146 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2147 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2148 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2149
2150 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2151 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2152 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2153 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2154
2155 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2156 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2157
2158 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2159
2160 *) Various precautionary measures:
2161
2162 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2163
2164 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2165 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2166 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2167
2168 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2169 outside the expected range.
2170
2171 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2172 builds.
2173
2174 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2175
2176 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2177 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2178 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2179
2180 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2181 [Steve Henson]
2182
2183 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2184 [Huang Ying]
2185
2186 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2187
2188 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2189 [Steve Henson]
2190
2191 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2192 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2193 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2194
2195 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2196 [Steve Henson]
2197
2198 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2199 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2200 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2201 files.
2202 [Steve Henson]
2203
2204 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2205
2206 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2207 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2208 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2209 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2210
2211 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2212 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2213 [Joe Orton]
2214
2215 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2216
2217 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2218 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2219 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2220
2221 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2222
2223 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2224 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2225 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2226 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2227 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2228
2229 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2230 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2231 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2232 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2233 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2234 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2235 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2236
2237 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2238
2239 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2240 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2241 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2242 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2243 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2244
2245 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2246 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2247
2248 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2249 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2250 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2251 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2252 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2253
2254 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2255
2256 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2257 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2258 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2259 sets may exist with different names.
2260 [Steve Henson]
2261
2262 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2263 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2264 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2265 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2266 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2267 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2268 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2269 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2270 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2271 implementation.
2272 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2273
2274 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2275 implemention in the following ways:
2276
2277 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2278 hard coded.
2279
2280 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2281 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2282 ignored for embedded content.
2283
2284 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2285 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2286 [Steve Henson]
2287
2288 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2289 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2290 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2291 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2292
2293 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2294 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
2297 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2298 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2299 [Steve Henson]
2300
2301 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2302 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2303 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2304 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2305 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2306 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2307 data.
2308 [Steve Henson]
2309
2310 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2311 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2312 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2313
2314 *) Netware support:
2315
2316 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2317 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2318 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2319 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2320 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2321 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2322 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2323 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2324 platform
2325 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2326 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2327 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2328 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2329 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2330 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2331 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2332
2333 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2334 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2335 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2336 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2337 to s_client and s_server.
2338 [Steve Henson]
2339
2340 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2341
2342 *) Fix various bugs:
2343 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2344 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2345 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2346 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2347 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2348
2349 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2350
2351 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2352 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2353 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2354 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2355 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2356 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2357 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2358 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2359 [Andy Polyakov]
2360
2361 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2362 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2363 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2364 Steve Henson]
2365
2366 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2367 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2368 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2369 supported.
2370
2371 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2372 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2373 SSL_SESSION.
2374
2375 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2376 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2377 with no application modification.
2378
2379 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2380 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2381
2382 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2383 or server extensions to be examined.
2384
2385 This work was sponsored by Google.
2386 [Steve Henson]
2387
2388 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2389 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2390 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2391 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2392 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2393 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2394 server_name extension.
2395
2396 New functions (subject to change):
2397
2398 SSL_get_servername()
2399 SSL_get_servername_type()
2400 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2401
2402 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2403
2404 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2405 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2406 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2407 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2408 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2409
2410 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2411
2412 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2413 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2414 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2415 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2416 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2417 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2418 option.
2419
2420 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2421
2422 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2423 [Steve Henson]
2424
2425 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2426 [Andy Polyakov]
2427
2428 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2429 (which previously caused an internal error).
2430 [Bodo Moeller]
2431
2432 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2433 [Ben Laurie]
2434
2435 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2436 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2437
2438 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2439 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2440 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2441
2442 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2443 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2444 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2445 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2446
2447 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2448 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2449 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2450 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2451
2452 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2453 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2454 information. For detailed background information, see
2455 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2456 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2457 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2458 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2459 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2460 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2461 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2462 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2463 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2464 remove a conditional branch.
2465
2466 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2467 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2468 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2469 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2470 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2471 remains as a deprecated alias.
2472
2473 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2474 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2475 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2476 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2477
2478 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2479 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2480 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2481 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2482 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2483 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2484 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2485 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2486
2487 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2488
2489 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2490 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2491 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2492 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2493 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2494 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2495 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2496 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2497 in a different context.
2498 [Bodo Moeller]
2499
2500 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2501 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2502 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2503 [Bodo Moeller]
2504
2505 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2506 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2507 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2508
2509 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2510
2511 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2512 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2513 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2514 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2515 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2516 [Victor Duchovni]
2517
2518 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2519 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2520 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2521 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2522 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2523 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2524 [Bodo Moeller]
2525
2526 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2527 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2528 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2529 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2530 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2531 [Bodo Moeller]
2532
2533 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2534 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2535
2536 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2537 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2538 Improve header file function name parsing.
2539 [Steve Henson]
2540
2541 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2542 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2543 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2544
2545 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2546
2547 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2548 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2549 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2550
2551 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2552 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2553
2554 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2555 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2556
2557 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2558 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2559 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2560
2561 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2562 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2563 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2564 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2565 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2566 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2567 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2568 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2569 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2570
2571 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2572 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2573 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2574 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2575 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2576
2577 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2578 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2579 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2580 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2581 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2582 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2583 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2584 multiple values to extend the available space.
2585
2586 [Bodo Moeller]
2587
2588 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2589
2590 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2591 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2592
2593 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2594 [Ben Laurie]
2595
2596 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2597 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2598 undesirable limitations.
2599 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2600
2601 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2602 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2603 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2604 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2605 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2606 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2607 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2608 [Bodo Moeller]
2609
2610 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2611
2612 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2613 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2614 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2615
2616 The latter two were purportedly from
2617 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2618 appear there.
2619
2620 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2621 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2622 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2623 [Bodo Moeller]
2624
2625 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2626 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2627 [Bodo Moeller]
2628
2629 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2630 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2631 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2632 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2633
2634 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2635 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2636 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2637 [NTT]
2638
2639 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2640 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2641 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2642 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2643 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2644 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2645 [Steve Henson]
2646
2647 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2648
2649 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2650 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2651 [Steve Henson]
2652
2653 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2654 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2655
2656 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2657 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2658 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2659 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2660 [Douglas Stebila]
2661
2662 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2663 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2664 [Steve Henson]
2665
2666 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2667 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2668 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2669 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2670 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2671 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2672 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2673 can't be loaded.
2674 [Steve Henson]
2675
2676 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2677 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2678 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2679 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2680 [Steve Henson]
2681
2682 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2683 under VC++ build system.
2684 [Steve Henson]
2685
2686 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2687 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2688 [Richard Levitte]
2689
2690 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2691
2692 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2693 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2694 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2695 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2696 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2697
2698 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2699 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2700 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2701
2702 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
2703 [Steve Henson]
2704
2705 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2706 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2707 [Nils Larsch]
2708
2709 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
2710 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
2711
2712 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
2713 [Nick Mathewson]
2714
2715 *) Extended Windows CE support.
2716 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
2717
2718 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
2719 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2720 [Steve Henson]
2721
2722 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2723 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2724 smime utility.
2725 [Steve Henson]
2726
2727 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
2728
2729 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2730 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2731
2732 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2733 [Richard Levitte]
2734
2735 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2736 key into the same file any more.
2737 [Richard Levitte]
2738
2739 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2740 [Andy Polyakov]
2741
2742 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2743 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2744
2745 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2746 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2747 [Richard Levitte]
2748
2749 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2750 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2751 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2752 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2753 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2754 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2755
2756 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2757 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2758 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2759 [Steve Henson]
2760
2761 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2762 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2763 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2764 - add new function for parameter creation
2765 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2766 BN_BLINDING parameters
2767 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2768 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2769 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2770 threads.
2771 [Nils Larsch]
2772
2773 *) Add support for DTLS.
2774 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2775
2776 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2777 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2778 [Walter Goulet]
2779
2780 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2781 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2782 [Nils Larsch]
2783
2784 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2785 the apps/openssl applications.
2786 [Nils Larsch]
2787
2788 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2789 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2790 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2791 [Ben Laurie]
2792
2793 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
2794 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2795
2796 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2797 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2798
2799 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2800 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2801 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2802 avoid this algorithm.)
2803
2804 [Bodo Moeller]
2805
2806 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2807 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2808 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2809 [Richard Levitte]
2810
2811 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
2812 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
2813 [Andy Polyakov]
2814
2815 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2816 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2817 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2818 pod file:
2819
2820 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
2821
2822 The blank line is mandatory.
2823
2824 [Steve Henson]
2825
2826 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2827 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2828 sources.
2829 [Steve Henson]
2830
2831 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2832 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2833
2834 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2835 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2836 to support policy checking and print out.
2837 [Steve Henson]
2838
2839 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
2840 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
2841 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2842 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2843
2844 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2845 [Geoff Thorpe]
2846
2847 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2848 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2849
2850 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2851 implementation contributed by IBM.
2852 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2853
2854 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2855 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2856 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2857 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2858
2859 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2860 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2861
2862 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2863 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
2864 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
2865 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
2866 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
2867 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
2868 [Steve Henson]
2869
2870 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
2871 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
2872 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
2873 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
2874 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
2875 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
2876 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
2877 [Geoff Thorpe]
2878
2879 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
2880 [Steve Henson]
2881
2882 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
2883 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
2884 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
2885 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
2886 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
2887 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
2888 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
2889 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
2890 [Steve Henson]
2891
2892 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
2893 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
2894 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
2895 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
2896 [Steve Henson]
2897
2898 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
2899 syntax:
2900
2901 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
2902 [Steve Henson]
2903
2904 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
2905 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
2906 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
2907 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
2908 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
2909 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
2910 BN_CTX's "bundling".
2911 [Geoff Thorpe]
2912
2913 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
2914 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
2915 [Geoff Thorpe]
2916
2917 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
2918 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
2919 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
2920 [Steve Henson]
2921
2922 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
2923 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
2924 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
2925 below).
2926 [Geoff Thorpe]
2927
2928 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
2929 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
2930 [Richard Levitte]
2931
2932 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
2933 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
2934 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
2935 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
2936 [Geoff Thorpe]
2937
2938 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
2939 initialised value as BN_new().
2940 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
2941
2942 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
2943 [Steve Henson]
2944
2945 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
2946 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
2947 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
2948 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
2949 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
2950 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
2951 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
2952 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
2953 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
2954 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
2955 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
2956 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
2957 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
2958 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
2959 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
2960
2961 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
2962 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
2963 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
2964 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
2965 [Geoff Thorpe]
2966
2967 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
2968 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
2969 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
2970 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
2971 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
2972 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
2973 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
2974 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
2975 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
2976 [Geoff Thorpe]
2977
2978 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
2979 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
2980 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
2981 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
2982 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
2983 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
2984 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
2985 [Geoff Thorpe]
2986
2987 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
2988 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
2989 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
2990 these have been updated also.
2991 [Geoff Thorpe]
2992
2993 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
2994 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
2995 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
2996 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
2997 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
2998 functions.
2999 [Steve Henson]
3000
3001 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3002 structure of type "other".
3003 [Steve Henson]
3004
3005 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3006 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3007 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3008 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3009 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3010 situation in the script.
3011 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3012
3013 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3014 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3015 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3016 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3017 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3018 used as premaster secret.
3019 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3020
3021 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3022 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3023 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3024
3025 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3026 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3027
3028 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3029 control of the error stack.
3030 [Richard Levitte]
3031
3032 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3033 [Richard Levitte]
3034
3035 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3036 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3037 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3038 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3039 [Richard Levitte]
3040
3041 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3042 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3043 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3044 [Richard Levitte]
3045
3046 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3047 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3048 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3049 a memory area.
3050 [Richard Levitte]
3051
3052 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3053 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3054 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3055 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3056 [Richard Levitte]
3057
3058 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3059 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3060 the following flags are defined:
3061
3062 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3063 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3064 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3065 number.
3066
3067 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3068 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3069 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3070 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3071 returns zero.
3072 [Richard Levitte]
3073
3074 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3075 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3076 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3077 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3078 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3079 [Richard Levitte]
3080
3081 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3082 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3083 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3084 [Richard Levitte]
3085
3086 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3087 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3088 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3089 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3090 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3091 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3092 [Richard Levitte]
3093
3094 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3095 req and dirName.
3096 [Steve Henson]
3097
3098 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3099 [Steve Henson]
3100
3101 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3102 [Steve Henson]
3103
3104 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3105 [Steve Henson]
3106
3107 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3108 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3109 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3110 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3111 default implementation more easily.
3112 [Geoff Thorpe]
3113
3114 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3115 in config files.
3116 [Steve Henson]
3117
3118 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3119 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3120 [Richard Levitte]
3121
3122 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3123 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3124 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3125 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3126
3127 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3128 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3129 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3130 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3131 [Steve Henson]
3132
3133 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3134 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3135 to do it.
3136 [Richard Levitte]
3137
3138 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3139 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3140 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3141 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3142 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3143 scalar * generator).
3144 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3145
3146 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3147 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3148 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3149 correctly.
3150 [Steve Henson]
3151
3152 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3153 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3154 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3155 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3156 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3157 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3158 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3159 linker additions, eg;
3160 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3161 [Geoff Thorpe]
3162
3163 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3164 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3165 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3166 [Geoff Thorpe]
3167
3168 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3169 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3170 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3171 via PR#459)
3172 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3173
3174 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3175 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3176 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3177 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3178 [Geoff Thorpe]
3179
3180 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3181 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3182 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3183 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3184 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3185 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3186 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3187 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3188 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3189 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3190
3191 Example for using the new callback interface:
3192
3193 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3194 void *my_arg = ...;
3195 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3196
3197 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3198
3199 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3200 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3201 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3202 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3203 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3204 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3205 */
3206
3207 [Geoff Thorpe]
3208
3209 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3210 available to TLS with the number defined in
3211 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3212 [Richard Levitte]
3213
3214 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3215 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3216
3217 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3218 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3219 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3220 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3221
3222 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3223 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3224
3225 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3226 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3227 well.
3228 [Richard Levitte]
3229
3230 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3231 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3232 [Richard Levitte]
3233
3234 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3235 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3236 and a macro that behave like
3237 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3238
3239 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3240 [Nils Larsch]
3241
3242 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3243 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3244 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3245 if applicable.
3246 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3247
3248 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3249 [Bodo Moeller]
3250
3251 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3252 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3253 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3254 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3255 directory engines/.
3256 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3257 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3258 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3259 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3260 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3261 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3262 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3263 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3264
3265 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3266 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3267 [Richard Levitte]
3268
3269 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3270 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3271
3272 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3273 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3274 files while avoiding the low level API.
3275
3276 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3277 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3278 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3279 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3280
3281 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3282 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3283 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3284 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3285 instead of the low level API.
3286 [Steve Henson]
3287
3288 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3289 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3290 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3291 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3292 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3293 PKCS#7 code.
3294
3295 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3296 down to the template encoder.
3297 [Steve Henson]
3298
3299 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3300 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3301 [Bodo Moeller]
3302
3303 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3304 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3305 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3306 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3307
3308 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3309 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3310
3311 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3312 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3313
3314 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3315 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3316 [Bodo Moeller]
3317
3318 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3319 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3320 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3321 [Bodo Moeller]
3322
3323 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3324 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3325
3326 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3327 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3328
3329 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3330 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3331 New EC_METHOD:
3332
3333 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3334
3335 New API functions:
3336
3337 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3338 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3339 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3340 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3341 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3342 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3343
3344 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3345 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3346 enable it).
3347
3348 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3349 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3350 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3351 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3352 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3353 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3354 various internal method names.)
3355
3356 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3357 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3358
3359 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3360 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3361
3362 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3363 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3364
3365 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3366 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3367 methods are undefined.
3368
3369 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3370 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3371
3372 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3373 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3374 length of the modulus.
3375
3376 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3377 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3378
3379 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3380 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3381
3382 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3383 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3384
3385 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3386 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3387 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3388
3389 BN_GF2m_add
3390 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3391 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3392 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3393 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3394 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3395 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3396 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3397 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3398 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3399
3400 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3401 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3402
3403 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3404 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3405 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3406 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3407 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3408 where
3409 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3410 This applies to the following functions:
3411
3412 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3413 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3414 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3415 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3416 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3417 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3418 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3419 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3420 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3421 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3422
3423 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3424
3425 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3426 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3427
3428 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3429
3430 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3431 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3432 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3433 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3434 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3435
3436 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3437 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3438
3439 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3440 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3441 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3442
3443 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3444 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3445
3446 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3447 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3448 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3449 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3450 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3451
3452 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3453 functions
3454 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3455 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3456 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3457 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3458 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3459 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3460 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3461 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3462 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3463 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3464 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3465 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3466
3467 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3468 functions
3469 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3470 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3471 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3472 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3473 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3474
3475 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3476 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3477 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3478 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3479
3480 *) Add functions
3481 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3482 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3483 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3484 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3485 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3486 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3487 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3488
3489 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3490 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3491 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3492 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3493 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3494 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3495 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3496 adding different types of curves.
3497 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3498
3499 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3500 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3501 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3502 [Bodo Moeller]
3503
3504 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3505 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3506
3507 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3508 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3509 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3510 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3511
3512 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3513
3514 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3515 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3516
3517 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3518 library. Most notably,
3519 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3520 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3521 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3522 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3523 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3524 extracted before the specific public key;
3525 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3526 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3527
3528 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3529 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3530 function
3531 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3532 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3533 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3534 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3535 accessed via
3536 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3537 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3538 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3539
3540 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3541 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3542 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3543 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3544 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3545 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3546 differing sizes.
3547 [Richard Levitte]
3548
3549 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3550
3551 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3552 sensitive data.
3553 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3554
3555 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3556 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3557 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3558 [Bodo Moeller]
3559
3560 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3561 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3562 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3563 [Victor Duchovni]
3564
3565 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3566 [Steve Henson]
3567
3568 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3569 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3570 [Steve Henson]
3571
3572 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3573 run algorithm test programs.
3574 [Steve Henson]
3575
3576 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3577 [Steve Henson]
3578
3579 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3580 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3581 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3582 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3583 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3584 [Bodo Moeller]
3585
3586 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3587 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3588 [Steve Henson]
3589
3590 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3591
3592 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3593 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3594 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3595
3596 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3597 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3598
3599 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3600 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3601
3602 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3603 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3604 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3605
3606 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3607 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3608 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3609 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3610 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3611 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3612 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3613 [Bodo Moeller]
3614
3615 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3616
3617 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3618 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3619
3620 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3621 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3622 undesirable limitations.
3623 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3624
3625 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3626
3627 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3628 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3629 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3630
3631 The latter two were purportedly from
3632 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3633 appear there.
3634
3635 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3636 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3637 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3638 [Bodo Moeller]
3639
3640 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3641 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3642 [Bodo Moeller]
3643
3644 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3645
3646 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3647 module in FIPS mode.
3648 [Steve Henson]
3649
3650 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3651 [Steve Henson]
3652
3653 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3654 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3655 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3656 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3657 [Steve Henson]
3658
3659 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3660
3661 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3662 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3663 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3664 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3665 the difference induced by this change.
3666 [Andy Polyakov]
3667
3668 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3669
3670 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3671 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3672 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3673 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3674 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3675
3676 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3677 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3678 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3679
3680 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
3681 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
3682 [Steve Henson]
3683
3684 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3685 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3686 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3687 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3688 biased k.)
3689 [Bodo Moeller]
3690
3691 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
3692 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3693 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3694 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3695 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
3696
3697 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3698 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
3699 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
3700 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3701 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3702 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
3703
3704 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
3705
3706 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
3707 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3708 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3709 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3710 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
3711 [Bodo Moeller]
3712
3713 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3714 clients need.
3715 [Steve Henson]
3716
3717 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3718 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3719 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3720 [Steve Henson]
3721
3722 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
3723 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
3724 structures constant.
3725 [Steve Henson]
3726
3727 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
3728
3729 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3730 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3731
3732 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3733 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3734 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3735 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3736 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3737 some needed definitions.
3738 [Steve Henson]
3739
3740 *) Undo Cygwin change.
3741 [Ulf Möller]
3742
3743 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3744 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3745 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3746 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
3747 [Richard Levitte]
3748
3749 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
3750
3751 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3752 server and client random values. Previously
3753 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3754 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3755
3756 This change has negligible security impact because:
3757
3758 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3759 data.
3760
3761 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3762 handshake.
3763
3764 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3765 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3766 values.
3767
3768 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
3769 to our attention.
3770
3771 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
3772
3773 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
3774 [Ulf Möller]
3775
3776 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
3777 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
3778 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
3779
3780 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
3781 [Steve Henson]
3782
3783 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
3784 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
3785 [Andy Polyakov]
3786
3787 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
3788 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
3789 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
3790
3791 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
3792 [Steve Henson]
3793
3794 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
3795 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
3796 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
3797 certificates.
3798 [Steve Henson]
3799
3800 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3801 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3802 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3803 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3804
3805 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3806 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3807 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3808 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
3809 been given)
3810 [Richard Levitte]
3811
3812 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
3813
3814 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
3815 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3816 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3817 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
3818 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
3819 [Steve Henson]
3820
3821 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
3822 [Steve Henson]
3823
3824 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
3825 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
3826
3827 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3828 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3829 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3830 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3831 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3832 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
3833 rather than being initialized to 1.
3834 [Steve Henson]
3835
3836 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
3837
3838 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3839 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3840 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3841
3842 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
3843 (CVE-2004-0112)
3844 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3845
3846 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3847 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3848 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3849 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3850 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3851 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3852 [Richard Levitte]
3853
3854 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
3855 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3856 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3857 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
3858 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
3859 for these cases.
3860 [Steve Henson]
3861
3862 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3863 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
3864 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
3865 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
3866 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
3867 [Steve Henson]
3868
3869 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
3870 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
3871 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
3872 < 0.9.7.
3873 [Steve Henson]
3874
3875 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
3876 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3877
3878 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
3879 [Steve Henson]
3880
3881 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
3882
3883 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
3884
3885 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
3886 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
3887
3888 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
3889
3890 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
3891 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
3892
3893 [Steve Henson]
3894
3895 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
3896 exiting on the first error in a request.
3897 [Steve Henson]
3898
3899 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
3900 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
3901 specifications.
3902 [Steve Henson]
3903
3904 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
3905 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
3906 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
3907 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
3908
3909 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
3910 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
3911 [Richard Levitte]
3912
3913 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
3914 blocks during encryption.
3915 [Richard Levitte]
3916
3917 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
3918 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
3919 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
3920 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
3921 certain size.
3922 [Steve Henson]
3923
3924 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
3925 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
3926 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
3927 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
3928 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
3929 parser.
3930 [Steve Henson]
3931
3932 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
3933
3934 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
3935 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
3936 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
3937 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
3938 [Bodo Moeller]
3939
3940 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
3941 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
3942 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
3943 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
3944 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3945
3946 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
3947 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
3948 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
3949 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
3950 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
3951 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
3952 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
3953 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
3954 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
3955 [Bodo Moeller]
3956
3957 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
3958 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
3959 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
3960 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
3961 [Geoff Thorpe]
3962
3963 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
3964 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
3965 [Ulf Moeller]
3966
3967 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
3968
3969 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
3970 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
3971 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
3972 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
3973 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
3974
3975 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
3976 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
3977 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
3978
3979 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
3980 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
3981 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
3982 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
3983 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
3984
3985 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
3986 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
3987 used by default when no-err is given.
3988 [Richard Levitte]
3989
3990 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
3991 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
3992
3993 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
3994 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
3995 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
3996 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
3997 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
3998
3999 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4000 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4001 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4002 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4003
4004 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4005
4006 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4007
4008 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4009
4010 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4011 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4012 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4013 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4014 root is omitted).
4015 [Steve Henson]
4016
4017 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4018 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4019
4020 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4021 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4022 [Steve Henson]
4023
4024 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4025 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4026 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4027 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4028 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4029
4030 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4031 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4032 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4033 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4034 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4035 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4036 followup to PR #377.
4037 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4038
4039 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4040 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4041 [Andy Polyakov]
4042
4043 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4044 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4045 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4046 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4047
4048 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4049
4050 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4051 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4052
4053 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4054 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4055 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4056 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4057 client and server.
4058 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4059 PR #377.
4060 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4061
4062 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4063 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4064 removed entirely.
4065 [Richard Levitte]
4066
4067 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4068 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4069 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4070 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4071 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4072 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4073 of libcrypto.
4074 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4075 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4076 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4077 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4078 have to be made anyway).
4079 [Richard Levitte]
4080
4081 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4082 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4083 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4084 [Steve Henson]
4085
4086 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4087 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4088 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4089 [Richard Levitte]
4090
4091 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4092 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4093 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4094
4095 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4096 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4097 edit numbers of the version.
4098 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4099
4100 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4101 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4102 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4103
4104 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4105 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4106
4107 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4108 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4109 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4110
4111 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4112 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4113
4114 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4115 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4116
4117 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4118 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4119
4120 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4121 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4122
4123 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4124 overflows.
4125 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4126
4127 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4128 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4129 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4130
4131 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4132 representations in a platform independent manner.
4133 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4134
4135 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4136 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4137 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4138
4139 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4140 indents.
4141 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4142
4143 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4144 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4145
4146 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4147 full. Fixed.
4148 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4149
4150 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4151 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4152 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4153
4154 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4155 unconditionally).
4156 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4157
4158 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4159 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4160
4161 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4162 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4163
4164 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4165 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4166
4167 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4168 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4169
4170 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4171 CBCParameter.
4172 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4173
4174 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4175 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4176
4177 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4178 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4179
4180 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4181 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4182 exploitable.
4183 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4184
4185 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4186 the 0.9.6 release series:
4187
4188 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4189 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4190 (CVE-2002-0657)
4191 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4192
4193 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4194 [Richard Levitte]
4195
4196 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4197 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4198
4199 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4200 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4201
4202 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4203 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4204 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4205 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4206
4207 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4208 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4209 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4210
4211 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4212 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4213 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4214 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4215
4216 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4217 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4218 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4219 some local tweaks:
4220
4221 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4222 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4223 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4224 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4225 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4226 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4227 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4228 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4229 done
4230
4231 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4232 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4233 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4234 [Richard Levitte]
4235
4236 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4237 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4238 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4239 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4240 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4241
4242 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4243 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4244
4245 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4246 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4247 [Richard Levitte]
4248
4249 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4250 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4251 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4252 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4253 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4254 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4255 [Steve Henson]
4256
4257 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4258 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4259 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4260 [Steve Henson]
4261
4262 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4263 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4264 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4265
4266 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4267 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4268 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4269 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4270 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4271 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4272 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4273 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4274
4275 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4276 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4277 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4278 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4279 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4280 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4281 [Steve Henson]
4282
4283 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4284 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4285 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4286 declaration has been changed from
4287 int (*cb)()
4288 into
4289 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4290 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4291 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4292 has been changed into
4293 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4294
4295 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4296 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4297 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4298
4299 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4300 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4301
4302 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4303 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4304 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4305 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4306 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4307 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4308 always load it have also been added.
4309 [Steve Henson]
4310
4311 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4312 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4313 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4314
4315 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4316
4317 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4318 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4319 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4320
4321 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4322 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4323 command line option can be used to specify an
4324 alternative file.
4325 [Steve Henson]
4326
4327 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4328 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4329 [Steve Henson]
4330
4331 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4332 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4333 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4334 [Steve Henson]
4335
4336 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4337 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4338 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4339 to work with the new engine framework.
4340 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4341
4342 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4343 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4344 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4345 to work with the new engine framework.
4346 [Richard Levitte]
4347
4348 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4349 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4350 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4351
4352 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4353 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4354
4355 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4356 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4357 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4358 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4359 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4360 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4361
4362 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4363 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4364
4365 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4366 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4367
4368 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4369 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4370 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4371 [Ben Laurie]
4372
4373 *) Add new functions
4374 ERR_peek_last_error
4375 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4376 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4377 These are similar to
4378 ERR_peek_error
4379 ERR_peek_error_line
4380 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4381 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4382 still in the error queue.
4383 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4384
4385 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4386 like:
4387 default_algorithms = ALL
4388 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4389 [Steve Henson]
4390
4391 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4392 [Steve Henson]
4393
4394 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4395 [Steve Henson]
4396
4397 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4398 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4399 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4400 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4401
4402 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4403 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4404
4405 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4406 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4407
4408 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4409 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4410 [Bodo Moeller]
4411
4412 *) New functions/macros
4413
4414 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4415 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4416 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4417 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4418
4419 to request calling a callback function
4420
4421 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4422 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4423
4424 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4425 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4426 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4427 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4428 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4429 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4430 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4431 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4432 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4433 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4434
4435 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4436 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4437 [Bodo Moeller]
4438
4439 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4440 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4441 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4442 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4443 the configuration scripts.
4444
4445 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4446 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4447 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4448
4449 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4450 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4451
4452 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4453 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4454 when reusing an existing buffer.
4455 [Bodo Moeller]
4456
4457 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4458 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4459 [Steve Henson]
4460
4461 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4462 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4463 [Ben Laurie]
4464
4465 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4466 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4467 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4468 has the same effect.
4469 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4470
4471 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4472 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4473 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4474 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4475 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4476 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4477 exception.
4478
4479 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4480 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4481 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4482 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4483
4484 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4485 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4486 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4487 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4488
4489 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4490 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4491 won't work.
4492
4493 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4494 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4495 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4496 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4497 default), and then completely removed.
4498 [Richard Levitte]
4499
4500 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4501 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4502 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4503 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4504 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4505 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4506 particular extension is supported.
4507 [Steve Henson]
4508
4509 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4510 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4511 [Steve Henson]
4512
4513 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4514 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4515 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4516 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4517 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4518 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4519 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4520 requires the destination to be valid.
4521
4522 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4523 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4524 [Steve Henson]
4525
4526 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4527 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4528 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4529 [Bodo Moeller]
4530
4531 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4532 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4533
4534 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4535 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4536 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4537 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4538 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4539 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4540 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4541 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4542 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4543 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4544 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4545 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4546 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4547 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4548 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4549 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4550 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4551 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4552 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4553 the new code.
4554 [Geoff Thorpe]
4555
4556 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4557 [Steve Henson]
4558
4559 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4560 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4561 become part of libeay.num as well.
4562 [Richard Levitte]
4563
4564 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4565 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4566 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4567 false once a handshake has been completed.
4568 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4569 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4570 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4571 client has followed the request.)
4572 [Bodo Moeller]
4573
4574 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4575 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4576 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4577 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4578
4579 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4580 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4581 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4582 [Bodo Moeller]
4583
4584 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4585 [Steve Henson]
4586
4587 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4588 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4589 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4590 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4591
4592 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4593 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4594 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4595
4596 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4597 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4598 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4599 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4600 [Geoff Thorpe]
4601
4602 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4603 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4604 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4605 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4606 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4607 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4608 [Geoff Thorpe]
4609
4610 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4611 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4612 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4613 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4614 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4615 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4616 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4617 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4618 [Geoff Thorpe]
4619
4620 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4621 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4622 [Geoff Thorpe]
4623
4624 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4625 [Ben Laurie]
4626
4627 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4628 md_data void pointer.
4629 [Ben Laurie]
4630
4631 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4632 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4633 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4634 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4635 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4636 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4637 [Ben Laurie]
4638
4639 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4640 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4641 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4642 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4643 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4644 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4645 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4646 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4647 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4648 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4649 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4650 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4651 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4652 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4653 rather than letting it slide.
4654
4655 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4656 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4657 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4658 [Geoff Thorpe]
4659
4660 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4661 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4662 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4663 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4664 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4665 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4666 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4667 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4668 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4669 [Geoff Thorpe]
4670
4671 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4672 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4673 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4674 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4675 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
4676
4677 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
4678 [Geoff Thorpe]
4679
4680 *) Add EVP test program.
4681 [Ben Laurie]
4682
4683 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
4684 [Ben Laurie]
4685
4686 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
4687 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4688 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4689 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4690 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4691 [Steve Henson]
4692
4693 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
4694 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
4695 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
4696 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4697 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4698 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
4699 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
4700
4701 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
4702 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4703 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
4704 Usage example:
4705
4706 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4707
4708 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4709 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4710 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4711 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4712 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
4713
4714 [Ben Laurie]
4715
4716 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
4717 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4718 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4719 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
4720 anyway): E.g.,
4721
4722 des_key_schedule ks;
4723
4724 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4725 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4726
4727 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
4728 [Ben Laurie]
4729
4730 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
4731 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4732 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4733 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4734 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4735 functions prevents this.
4736 [Steve Henson]
4737
4738 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
4739 [Ben Laurie]
4740
4741 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
4742 correct _ecb suffix.
4743 [Ben Laurie]
4744
4745 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
4746 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4747 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4748 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4749 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
4750 [Steve Henson]
4751
4752 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
4753 [Richard Levitte]
4754
4755 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
4756 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4757 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4758 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4759
4760 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4761 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4762
4763 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
4764 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4765 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
4766 via Richard Levitte]
4767
4768 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
4769 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
4770 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
4771 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
4772 [Geoff Thorpe]
4773
4774 *) Speed up EVP routines.
4775 Before:
4776 encrypt
4777 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes

4790 [Ben Laurie]
4791
4792 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
4793 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
4794
4795 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
4796 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
4797 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
4798 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
4799 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
4800 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
4801 [Steve Henson]
4802
4803 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
4804 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
4805 [Richard Levitte]
4806
4807 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
4808 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
4809 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
4810 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
4811
4812 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
4813 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
4814 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
4815 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
4816 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
4817 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
4818 callback.
4819 [Richard Levitte]
4820
4821 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
4822 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
4823 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
4824 and interrupts/cancellations.
4825 [Richard Levitte]
4826
4827 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
4828 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
4829 [Steve Henson]
4830
4831 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
4832 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
4833 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
4834
4835 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
4836 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
4837 kind of callback.
4838 [Richard Levitte]
4839
4840 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
4841 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
4842 than this minimum value is recommended.
4843 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4844
4845 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
4846 that are easily reachable.
4847 [Richard Levitte]
4848
4849 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
4850 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
4851
4852 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
4853
4854 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
4855 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
4856 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
4857 needed for static libraries under Win32.
4858 [Steve Henson]
4859
4860 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
4861 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4862 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4863 [Steve Henson]
4864
4865 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
4866 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
4867 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
4868 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
4869 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
4870 internally such as S/MIME.
4871
4872 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
4873 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
4874 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
4875
4876 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
4877 applications.
4878 [Steve Henson]
4879
4880 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
4881 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
4882 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
4883 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
4884
4885 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4886
4887 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
4888
4889 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
4890 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
4891 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
4892 handling.
4893 [Steve Henson]
4894
4895 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
4896 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
4897 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
4898 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
4899 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
4900 a window system and the like.
4901 [Richard Levitte]
4902
4903 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
4904 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
4905 [Geoff]
4906
4907 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
4908 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
4909 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
4910 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
4911 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
4912 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
4913 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
4914 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
4915 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
4916 ENGINE structure.
4917 [Geoff]
4918
4919 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
4920 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
4921 tag cache.
4922 [Steve Henson]
4923
4924 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
4925 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
4926 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
4927 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
4928 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
4929 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
4930 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
4931 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
4932 [Geoff]
4933
4934 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
4935 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
4936 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
4937 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
4938 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
4939 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
4940 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
4941 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
4942 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
4943 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
4944 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
4945 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
4946 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
4947 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
4948 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
4949 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
4950 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
4951 [Geoff]
4952
4953 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
4954 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
4955 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
4956 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
4957 internal engine_int.h header.
4958 [Geoff]
4959
4960 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
4961 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
4962 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
4963 modify their own ones).
4964 [Geoff]
4965
4966 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
4967 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
4968 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
4969 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
4970 later on via ctrl() commands.
4971 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
4972 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
4973 structural references.
4974 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
4975 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
4976 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
4977 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
4978 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
4979 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
4980 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
4981 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
4982 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
4983 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
4984 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
4985 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
4986 [Geoff]
4987
4988 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
4989 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
4990 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
4991 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
4992 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
4993 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
4994 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
4995 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
4996 [Bodo Moeller]
4997
4998 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
4999 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5000 [Steve Henson]
5001
5002 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5003 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5004 [Steve Henson]
5005
5006 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5007 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5008 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5009 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5010 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5011 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5012 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5013 [Steve Henson]
5014
5015 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5016 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5017 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5018 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5019 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5020
5021 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5022 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5023 generator).
5024 [Bodo Moeller]
5025
5026 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5027
5028 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5029 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5030 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5031
5032 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5033 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5034
5035 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5036 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5037 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5038
5039 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5040 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5041
5042 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5043 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5044
5045 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5046
5047 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5048 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5049 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5050 [Bodo Moeller]
5051
5052 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5053 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5054 [Richard Levitte]
5055
5056 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5057 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5058 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5059 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5060 is 40 of more characters long.
5061 [Steve Henson]
5062
5063 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5064 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5065 pointers.
5066 [Steve Henson]
5067
5068 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5069 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5070 [Bodo Moeller]
5071
5072 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5073 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5074 might.
5075 [Steve Henson]
5076
5077 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5078
5079 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5080 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5081
5082 ASN1 error codes
5083 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5084 ...
5085 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5086 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5087 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5088 ...
5089 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5090 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5091
5092 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5093 [Bodo Moeller]
5094
5095 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5096 suffices.
5097 [Bodo Moeller]
5098
5099 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5100 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5101 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5102 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5103 and
5104 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5105
5106 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5107 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5108
5109 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5110 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5111 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5112 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5113 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5114 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5115
5116 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5117 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5118
5119 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5120 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5121
5122 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5123 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5124
5125 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5126 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5127 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5128 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5129
5130 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5131 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5132
5133 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5134 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5135
5136 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5137 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5138 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5139 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5140 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5141 [Richard Levitte]
5142
5143 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5144 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5145 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5146 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5147 [Steve Henson]
5148
5149 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5150 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5151 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5152 trust settings.
5153 [Steve Henson]
5154
5155 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5156 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5157 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5158 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5159 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5160 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5161 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5162 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5163 ocsp utility.
5164 [Steve Henson]
5165
5166 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5167 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5168 [Steve Henson]
5169
5170 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5171 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5172 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5173 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5174 [Steve Henson]
5175
5176 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5177 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5178 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5179 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5180 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5181 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5182 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5183 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5184 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5185 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5186 [Steve Henson]
5187
5188 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5189 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5190 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5191 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5192 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5193 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5194 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5195 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5196
5197 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5198 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5199 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5200 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5201 [Richard Levitte]
5202
5203 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5204 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5205 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5206 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5207 opensslconf.h.
5208 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5209 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5210 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5211 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5212 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5213 what is available.
5214 [Richard Levitte]
5215
5216 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5217 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5218 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5219 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5220 auto incremented.
5221 [Steve Henson]
5222
5223 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5224 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5225 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5226 [Steve Henson]
5227
5228 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5229 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5230 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5231 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5232 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5233 [Steve Henson]
5234
5235 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5236 [Steve Henson]
5237
5238 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5239 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5240 option to ocsp utility.
5241 [Steve Henson]
5242
5243 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5244 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5245 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5246 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5247 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5248 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5249 the request is nonce-less.
5250 [Steve Henson]
5251
5252 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5253 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5254 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5255 [Bodo Moeller]
5256
5257 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5258 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5259 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5260 [Steve Henson]
5261
5262 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5263 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5264 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5265 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5266 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5267 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5268
5269 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5270 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5271 appear to exist.
5272 [Steve Henson]
5273
5274 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5275 additional certificates supplied.
5276 [Steve Henson]
5277
5278 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5279 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5280 signature against.
5281 [Richard Levitte]
5282
5283 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5284 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5285 AES OIDs.
5286
5287 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5288 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5289 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5290 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5291 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5292 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5293 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5294 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5295 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5296
5297 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5298 request to response.
5299 [Steve Henson]
5300
5301 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5302 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5303 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5304 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5305 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5306 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5307 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5308 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5309 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5310 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5311 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5312 [Steve Henson]
5313
5314 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5315 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5316 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5317 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5318 [Steve Henson]
5319
5320 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5321 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5322
5323 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5324 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5325 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5326 [Steve Henson]
5327
5328 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5329 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5330 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5331 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5332 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5333
5334 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5335 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5336 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5337 [Steve Henson]
5338
5339 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5340 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5341 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5342 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5343 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5344 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5345 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5346 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5347
5348 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5349 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5350 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5351 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5352 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5353 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5354 [Steve Henson]
5355
5356 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5357 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5358 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5359 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5360 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5361 printout format cleaned up.
5362 [Steve Henson]
5363
5364 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5365 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5366 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5367 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5368 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5369 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5370 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5371 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5372 [Steve Henson]
5373
5374 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5375 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5376 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5377 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5378 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5379 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5380 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5381 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5382 [Steve Henson]
5383
5384 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5385 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5386 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5387 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5388 section to use.
5389 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5390
5391 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5392 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5393 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5394 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5395 [Steve Henson]
5396
5397 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5398 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5399 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5400 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5401 in the index file.
5402 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5403
5404 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5405 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5406 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5407 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5408
5409 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5410 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5411
5412 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5413 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5414 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5415 [Steve Henson]
5416
5417 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5418 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5419 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5420 [Bodo Moeller]
5421
5422 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5423 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5424 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5425 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5426 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5427 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5428 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5429 functions are provided:
5430
5431 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5432 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5433 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5434 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5435
5436 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5437 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5438 extended allocation function is enabled.
5439 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5440 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5441 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5442
5443 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5444 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5445 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5446 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5447 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5448 [Geoff Thorpe]
5449
5450 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5451 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5452 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5453 be queried.
5454 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5455 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5456 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5457 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5458
5459 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5460 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5461 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5462 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5463 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5464 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5465 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5466 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5467 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5468 [Richard Levitte]
5469
5470 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5471 provide utility functions which an application needing
5472 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5473 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5474 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5475
5476 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5477 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5478 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5479 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5480 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5481 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5482 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5483 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5484 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5485
5486 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5487 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5488 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5489 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5490 [Steve Henson]
5491
5492 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5493 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5494 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5495 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5496 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5497 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5498 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5499 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5500 will be added elsewhere.
5501 [Steve Henson]
5502
5503 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5504 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5505 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5506 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5507 [Steve Henson]
5508
5509 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5510 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5511 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5512 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5513 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5514 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5515 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5516 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5517 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5518 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5519 to produce the required SET OF.
5520 [Steve Henson]
5521
5522 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5523 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5524 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5525 [Richard Levitte]
5526
5527 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5528 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5529 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5530 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5531 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5532 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5533 [Steve Henson]
5534
5535 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5536 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5537 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5538 [Steve Henson]
5539
5540 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5541 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5542 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5543 [Richard Levitte]
5544
5545 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5546 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5547 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5548 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5549 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5550 [Steve Henson]
5551
5552 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5553 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5554 [Steve Henson]
5555
5556 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5557 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5558 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5559 certifcates and CRLs.
5560 [Steve Henson]
5561
5562 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5563 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5564 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5565 [Steve Henson]
5566
5567 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5568 entries for variables.
5569 [Steve Henson]
5570
5571 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5572 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5573 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5574 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5575 [Bodo Moeller]
5576
5577 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5578 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5579 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5580 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5581 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5582 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5583 [Bodo Moeller]
5584
5585 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5586 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5587
5588 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5589 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5590 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5591 [Steve Henson]
5592
5593 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5594 print routines.
5595 [Steve Henson]
5596
5597 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5598 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5599 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5600 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5601 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5602 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5603 [Steve Henson]
5604
5605 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5606 [Steve Henson]
5607
5608 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5609 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5610 for now but they will eventually go away.
5611 [Steve Henson]
5612
5613 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5614 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5615 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5616 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5617 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5618 has also been converted to the new form.
5619 [Steve Henson]
5620
5621 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5622 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5623 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5624 for negative moduli.
5625 [Bodo Moeller]
5626
5627 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5628 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5629 [Bodo Moeller]
5630
5631 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5632 set.
5633 [Bodo Moeller]
5634
5635 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5636 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5637 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5638 type-specific callbacks.
5639 [Geoff Thorpe]
5640
5641 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5642 RFC 2712.
5643 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5644 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5645
5646 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5647 in sections depending on the subject.
5648 [Richard Levitte]
5649
5650 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5651 Windows.
5652 [Richard Levitte]
5653
5654 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5655 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5656 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5657 be handled deterministically).
5658 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5659
5660 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5661 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5662 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5663 [Bodo Moeller]
5664
5665 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5666 [Bodo Moeller]
5667
5668 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5669 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5670 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5671 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5672 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5673 [Bodo Moeller]
5674
5675 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
5676 sign of the number in question.
5677
5678 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5679
5680 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5681 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5682 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5683 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5684 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
5685 [Bodo Moeller]
5686
5687 *) New function BN_swap.
5688 [Bodo Moeller]
5689
5690 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
5691 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
5692 results on negative inputs.
5693 [Bodo Moeller]
5694
5695 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
5696 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
5697 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
5698 [Bodo Moeller]
5699
5700 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
5701 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
5702 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
5703 and add new functions:
5704
5705 BN_nnmod
5706 BN_mod_sqr
5707 BN_mod_add
5708 BN_mod_add_quick
5709 BN_mod_sub
5710 BN_mod_sub_quick
5711 BN_mod_lshift1
5712 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
5713 BN_mod_lshift
5714 BN_mod_lshift_quick
5715
5716 These functions always generate non-negative results.
5717
5718 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
5719 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
5720
5721 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
5722 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
5723 be reduced modulo m.
5724 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5725
5726 #if 0
5727 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
5728 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5729 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5730
5731 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5732 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5733 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5734 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5735 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5736 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5737 differing sizes.
5738 [Richard Levitte]
5739 #endif
5740
5741 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
5742 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5743 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5744 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5745 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5746
5747 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5748 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5749 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5750 cause any problems.
5751 [Bodo Moeller]
5752
5753 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
5754 [Richard Levitte]
5755
5756 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
5757 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5758 [Richard Levitte]
5759
5760 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
5761 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5762 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5763 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5764 time)
5765 [Richard Levitte]
5766
5767 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
5768 [Richard Levitte]
5769
5770 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
5771 [Richard Levitte]
5772
5773 *) Add the following functions:
5774
5775 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5776 ENGINE_load_chil()
5777 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5778 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5779 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5780
5781 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5782 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5783 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5784 libraries unless it's really needed.
5785
5786 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5787 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5788 declarations (they differed!).
5789 [Richard Levitte]
5790
5791 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
5792 [Richard Levitte]
5793
5794 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
5795 [Richard Levitte]
5796
5797 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
5798 [Bodo Moeller]
5799
5800 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
5801 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5802 [Richard Levitte]
5803
5804 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
5805 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.

5808 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
5809 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5810 [Richard Levitte]
5811
5812 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
5813 [Richard Levitte]
5814
5815 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
5816 [Richard Levitte]
5817
5818 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
5819 [Ben Laurie]
5820
5821 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
5822 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5823 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5824
5825 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
5826 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5827 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5828 different shared library filenames on each system.
5829 [Geoff Thorpe]
5830
5831 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
5832 [Richard Levitte]
5833
5834 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
5835 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5836 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5837 of two sections.
5838 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5839
5840 *) NCONF changes.
5841 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5842 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5843 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5844 binary backward compatibility.
5845 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5846 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5847 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5848 LDAP server.
5849 [Richard Levitte]
5850
5851 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
5852 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5853 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5854 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5855 this case.
5856 [Steve Henson]
5857
5858 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
5859 [Ben Laurie]
5860
5861 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
5862 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5863 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
5864 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
5865 set.
5866 [Steve Henson]
5867
5868 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
5869 [Richard Levitte]
5870
5871 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
5872
5873 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5874 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5875 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5876
5877 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
5878
5879 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
5880
5881 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
5882 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
5883 [Steve Henson]
5884
5885 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
5886
5887 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5888
5889 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5890 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5891
5892 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5893 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5894
5895 [Steve Henson]
5896
5897 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5898 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5899 specifications.
5900 [Steve Henson]
5901
5902 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5903 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5904 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5905 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5906
5907 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5908 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5909 [Richard Levitte]
5910
5911 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
5912
5913 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5914 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5915 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5916 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5917 [Bodo Moeller]
5918
5919 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5920 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5921 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5922 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5923 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5924
5925 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5926 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5927 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5928 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5929 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5930 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5931 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5932 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5933 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5934 [Bodo Moeller]
5935
5936 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
5937
5938 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5939 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5940 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5941 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5942 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5943
5944 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5945 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5946 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5947
5948 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
5949
5950 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
5951 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
5952 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
5953 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
5954 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
5955 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
5956 [Geoff Thorpe]
5957
5958 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
5959 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
5960 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
5961 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
5962 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
5963 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5964
5965 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
5966 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
5967 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
5968
5969 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
5970 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
5971 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
5972 EVP_cleanup().
5973 [Richard Levitte]
5974
5975 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
5976 being properly terminated.
5977 [Richard Levitte]
5978
5979 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
5980 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
5981 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
5982 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
5983
5984 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
5985 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
5986 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
5987 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
5988 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
5989 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
5990 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
5991 change.
5992 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
5993
5994 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
5995 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
5996 [Bodo Moeller]
5997
5998 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
5999 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6000 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6001 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6002 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6003 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6004 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6005 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6006
6007 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6008 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6009 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6010 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6011 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6012
6013 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6014 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6018
6019 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6020 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6021 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6022
6023 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6024
6025 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6026 and get fix the header length calculation.
6027 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6028 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6029 Steve Henson]
6030
6031 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6032 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6033 assertions could call abort()).
6034 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6035
6036 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6037
6038 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6039 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6040 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6041 supplied buffer.
6042 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6043
6044 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6045 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6046 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6047 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6048
6049 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6050 [Nils Larsch]
6051
6052 *) New option
6053 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6054 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6055 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6056
6057 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6058 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6059 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6060 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6061 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6062 applications.
6063 [Bodo Moeller]
6064
6065 *) Changes in security patch:
6066
6067 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6068 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6069 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6070 F30602-01-2-0537.
6071
6072 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6073 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6074 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6075 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6076 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6077
6078 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6079 happen in practice.
6080 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6081
6082 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6083 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6084 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6085
6086 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6087 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6088 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6089
6090 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6091 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6092 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6093
6094 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6095
6096 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6097 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6098 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6099
6100 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6101 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6102
6103 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6104 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6105 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6106 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6107 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6108 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6109 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6110
6111 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6112 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6113 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6114 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6115 [Bodo Moeller]
6116
6117 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6118 [Bodo Moeller]
6119
6120 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6121 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6122 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6123 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6124 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6125 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6126
6127 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6128 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6129 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6130 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6131 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6132 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6133
6134 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6135 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6136 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6137 BN_generate_prime().)
6138
6139 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6140 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6141 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6142 better.
6143 [Bodo Moeller]
6144
6145 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6146 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6147 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6148
6149 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6150 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6151 when using non-blocking I/O.
6152 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6153
6154 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6155 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6156
6157 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6158 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6159 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6160
6161 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6162 configuration for the versions before that.
6163 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6164
6165 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6166 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6167 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6168 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6169 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6170
6171 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6172 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6173 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6174 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6175
6176 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6177 value is 0.
6178 [Richard Levitte]
6179
6180 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6181 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6182 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6183
6184 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6185 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6186
6187 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6188 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6189 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6190 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6191 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6192 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6193 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6194 session cache.
6195
6196 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6197 using a local variable.
6198 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6199
6200 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6201 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6202 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6203
6204 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6205 [Richard Levitte]
6206
6207 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6208 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6209
6210 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6211 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6212 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6213
6214 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6215
6216 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6217 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6218 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6219 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6220 [Bodo Moeller]
6221
6222 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6223 present.
6224 [Steve Henson]
6225
6226 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6227 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6228 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6229 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6230 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6231
6232 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6233 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6234 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6235
6236 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6237 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6238 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6239
6240 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6241 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6242 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6243 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6244
6245 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6246 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6247 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6248 modules).
6249 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6250
6251 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6252 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6253 from 0.9.7.
6254 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6255
6256 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6257 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6258 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6259 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6260
6261 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6262 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6263 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6264 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6265
6266 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6267 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6268
6269 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6270 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6271 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6272 [Bodo Moeller]
6273
6274 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6275 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6276 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6277 become invalid.
6278 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6279
6280 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6281 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6282 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6283 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6284 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6285 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6286 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6287 [Bodo Moeller]
6288
6289 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6290 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6291 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6292 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6293
6294 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6295 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6296 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6297 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6298 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6299 the client will at least see that alert.
6300 [Bodo Moeller]
6301
6302 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6303 correctly.
6304 [Bodo Moeller]
6305
6306 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6307 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6308 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6309
6310 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6311 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6312 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6313 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6314 HelloRequest.
6315
6316 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6317 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6318 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6319
6320 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6321 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6322 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6323 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6324 may leak via logfiles.)
6325
6326 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6327 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6328 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6329 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6330 the legal range.
6331 [Bodo Moeller]
6332
6333 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6334 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6335 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6336
6337 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6338 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6339 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6340 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6341 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6342 [Bodo Moeller]
6343
6344 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6345 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6346
6347 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6348 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6349 followed by modular reduction.
6350 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6351
6352 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6353 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6354 [Bodo Moeller]
6355
6356 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6357 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6358 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6359 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6360 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6361
6362 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6363 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6364
6365 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6366 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6367 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6368
6369 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6370 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6371 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6372 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6373 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6374 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6375 automatically.
6376 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6377
6378 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6379 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6380 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6381 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6382 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6383
6384 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6385 [Andy Polyakov]
6386
6387 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6388 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6389 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6390 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6391 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6392 to allow the necessary settings.
6393 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6394
6395 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6396 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6397 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6398 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6399 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6400
6401 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6402 dh->length and always used
6403
6404 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6405
6406 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6407 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6408 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6409 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6410 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6411 dh->length.
6412
6413 So switch back to
6414
6415 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6416
6417 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6418 otherwise.
6419 [Bodo Moeller]
6420
6421 *) In
6422
6423 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6424 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6425 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6426 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6427
6428 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6429 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6430 always reject numbers >= n.
6431 [Bodo Moeller]
6432
6433 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6434 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6435 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6436 variable) is not atomic.
6437 [Bodo Moeller]
6438
6439 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6440 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6441 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6442 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6443
6444 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6445 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6446
6447 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6448 little-endian MIPS.
6449 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6450
6451 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6452 [Richard Levitte]
6453
6454 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6455
6456 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6457 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6458 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6459 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6460 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6461 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6462 to traverse all of 'state'.
6463
6464 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6465 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6466 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6467
6468 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6469 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6470
6471 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6472 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6473 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6474 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6475 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6476 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6477 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6478 further strengthens the PRNG.
6479 [Bodo Moeller]
6480
6481 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6482 [Andy Polyakov]
6483
6484 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6485 an error message in this case.
6486 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6487
6488 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6489 [Steve Henson]
6490
6491 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6492 positive and less than q.
6493 [Bodo Moeller]
6494
6495 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6496 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6497 that itself.
6498 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6499
6500 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6501 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6502 [Bodo Moeller]
6503
6504 *) Fix OAEP check.
6505 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6506
6507 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6508 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6509 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6510 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6511 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6512 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6513 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6514 paper.)
6515
6516 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6517 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6518 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6519 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6520
6521 Both problems are now fixed.
6522 [Bodo Moeller]
6523
6524 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6525 (previously it was 1024).
6526 [Bodo Moeller]
6527
6528 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6529 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6530 [Steve Henson]
6531
6532 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6533 [Steve Henson]
6534
6535 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6536 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6537 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6538 [Steve Henson]
6539
6540 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6541 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6542 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6543 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6544 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6545 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6546 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6547 environment variables.
6548
6549 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6550 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6551 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6552 [Bodo Moeller]
6553
6554 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6555 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6556 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6557 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6558 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6559 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6560 [Bodo Moeller]
6561
6562 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6563 versions of 'test'.
6564 [Bodo Moeller]
6565
6566 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6567
6568 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6569 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6570
6571 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6572 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6573 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6574 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6575 CygWin.
6576 [Richard Levitte]
6577
6578 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6579 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6580 amount of data available.
6581 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6582 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6583
6584 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6585 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6586 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6587 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6588 [Bodo Moeller]
6589
6590 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6591 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6592 and UnixWare.
6593 [Richard Levitte]
6594
6595 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6596 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6597 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6598 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6599 [Ulf Moeller]
6600
6601 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6602 [Andy Polyakov]
6603
6604 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6605 [Richard Levitte]
6606
6607 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6608 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6609 [Steve Henson]
6610 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6611
6612 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6613 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6614 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6615 (but broken) behaviour.
6616 [Steve Henson]
6617
6618 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6619 it when found.
6620 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6621
6622 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6623 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6624 [Bodo Moeller]
6625
6626 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6627 did not exist.
6628 [Bodo Moeller]
6629
6630 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6631 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6632
6633 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6634 [Richard Levitte]
6635
6636 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6637 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6638 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6639
6640 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6641 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6642 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6643 [Steve Henson]
6644
6645 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6646 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6647 [Ulf Moeller]
6648
6649 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6650 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6651
6652 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6653
6654 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6655
6656 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6657 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6658 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6659 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6660 [Bodo Moeller]
6661
6662 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6663 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6664
6665 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6666 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6667 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6668
6669 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6670 was empty.
6671 [Steve Henson]
6672 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6673
6674 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6675 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6676 but the code is actually correct.
6677 [Steve Henson]
6678
6679 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6680 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6681 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6682 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6683 and leaves the highest bit random.
6684 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6685
6686 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6687 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6688 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6689 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6690 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6691 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6692 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6693 [Bodo Moeller]
6694
6695 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6696 [Ulf Moeller]
6697
6698 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6699 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6700 [Steve Henson]
6701
6702 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6703 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6704 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6705 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6706 headers.
6707 [Richard Levitte]
6708
6709 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6710 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6711 and break the signature.
6712 [Steve Henson]
6713 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6714
6715 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6716 DH ciphersuites.
6717 [Steve Henson]
6718
6719 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6720 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6721 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6722 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6723 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6724 [Bodo Moeller]
6725
6726 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6727 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6728
6729 *) ./config script fixes.
6730 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6731
6732 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6733 [Bodo Moeller]
6734
6735 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6736 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6737 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6738 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6739 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6740
6741 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6742 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6743 [Bodo Moeller]
6744
6745 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6746 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6747 [Steve Henson]
6748
6749 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6750 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6751 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6752 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6753
6754 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6755 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6756
6757 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6758 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6759 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6760 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6761 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6762
6763 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6764 [Bodo Moeller]
6765
6766 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6767 [Ulf Möller]
6768
6769 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6770 [Ulf Möller]
6771
6772 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6773 [Bodo Moeller]
6774
6775 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6776 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6777 [Bodo Moeller]
6778
6779 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6780 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6781 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6782 result of the server certificate verification.)
6783 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6784
6785 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6786 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6787 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6788 [Bodo Moeller]
6789
6790 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6791 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6792 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6793 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6794 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6795 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6796 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6797 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6798 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6799 [Bodo Moeller]
6800
6801 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6802 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6803 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6804 happening the other way round.
6805 [Geoff Thorpe]
6806
6807 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6808 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6809 [Bodo Moeller]
6810
6811 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6812 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6813 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6814 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6815 [Richard Levitte]
6816
6817 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6818 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6819
6820 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6821
6822 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6823 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6824 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6825 that.
6826
6827 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6828
6829 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6830
6831 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6832 static ones.
6833 [Richard Levitte]
6834
6835 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6836
6837 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6838 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6839 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6840 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6841 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6842
6843 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6844 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6845 matter what.
6846 [Richard Levitte]
6847
6848 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6849 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6850
6851 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
6852
6853 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6854 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6855 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6856 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6857 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
6858 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
6859 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6860 by the Finished messages.
6861 [Bodo Moeller]
6862
6863 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
6864 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
6865
6866 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
6867 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
6868 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
6869 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
6870 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
6871 appropriately.
6872 [Steve Henson]
6873
6874 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
6875 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
6876 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
6877 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
6878 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
6879 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
6880 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
6881 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
6882 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
6883 together.
6884 [Steve Henson]
6885
6886 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
6887 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
6888 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
6889 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
6890
6891 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
6892 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
6893 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
6894 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
6895 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
6896 the answer.
6897
6898 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
6899 been tested well enough.
6900 [Richard Levitte]
6901
6902 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
6903 it can return incorrect results.
6904 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
6905 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
6906 [Bodo Moeller]
6907
6908 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
6909 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
6910 include zero length content when signing messages.
6911 [Steve Henson]
6912
6913 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
6914 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
6915 [Bodo Möller]
6916
6917 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
6918 [Richard Levitte]
6919
6920 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
6921 wrong sign.
6922 [Ulf Möller]
6923
6924 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
6925 packages. The default package contains applications, application
6926 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
6927 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
6928 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
6929 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
6930 [Richard Levitte]
6931
6932 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
6933 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6934
6935 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
6936 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
6937
6938 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
6939 random number < q in the DSA library.
6940 [Ulf Möller]
6941
6942 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
6943 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
6944 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
6945 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
6946 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
6947 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
6948 just makes things more complicated.)
6949 [Bodo Moeller]
6950
6951 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
6952 from EGD.
6953 [Ben Laurie]
6954
6955 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
6956 work better on such systems.
6957 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6958
6959 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
6960 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
6961 keyid to the certificates aux info.
6962 [Steve Henson]
6963
6964 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
6965 if there was more than one signature.
6966 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
6967
6968 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
6969 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
6970 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
6971 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
6972 [Richard Levitte]
6973
6974 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
6975 rather than always using the current time.
6976 [Steve Henson]
6977
6978 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
6979 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
6980 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
6981 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
6982 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
6983 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
6984
6985 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
6986 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
6987
6988 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
6989
6990 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
6991 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
6992 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
6993 the same hash value.
6994
6995 As a result various functions (which were all internal
6996 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
6997 structure. This will break anything that messed round
6998 with X509_STORE internally.
6999
7000 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7001 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7002
7003 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7004 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7005 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7006 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7007 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7008 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7009 entirely (maybe later...).
7010
7011 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7012
7013 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7014 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7015 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7016 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7017 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7018 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7019 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7020 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7021
7022 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7023 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7024
7025 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7026 to customise the verify behaviour.
7027 [Steve Henson]
7028
7029 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7030 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7031 [Steve Henson]
7032
7033 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7034 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7035 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7036 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7037 request is improperly encoded.
7038 [Steve Henson]
7039
7040 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7041 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7042 BIO_write(b, ...).
7043
7044 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7045 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7046
7047 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7048 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7049 words set to zero.)
7050 [Bodo Moeller]
7051
7052 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7053 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7054 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7055 [Bodo Moeller]
7056
7057 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7058 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7059 BIO/fp routines also added.
7060 [Steve Henson]
7061
7062 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7063 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7064
7065 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7066 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7067 demos/state_machine.
7068 [Ben Laurie]
7069
7070 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7071 generation and verification.
7072 [Steve Henson]
7073
7074 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7075 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7076 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7077 encode and decode it manually.
7078 [Steve Henson]
7079
7080 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7081 compile under VC++.
7082 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7083
7084 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7085 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7086 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7087 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7088
7089 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7090 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7091 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7092 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7093 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7094 [Steve Henson]
7095
7096 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7097 [Richard Levitte]
7098
7099 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7100 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7101 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7102
7103 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7104 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7105 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7106 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7107 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7108 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7109 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7110 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7111
7112 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7113 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7114
7115 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7116
7117 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7118 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7119 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7120
7121 [Richard Levitte]
7122
7123 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7124 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7125 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7126 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7127 [Richard Levitte]
7128
7129 *) MD4 implemented.
7130 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7131
7132 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7133 [Richard Levitte]
7134
7135 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7136 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7137 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7138 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7139 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7140 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7141 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7142 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7143 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7144 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7145 short or long names are found.
7146 [Steve Henson]
7147
7148 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7149 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7150
7151 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7152 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7153 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7154 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7155
7156 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7157 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7158 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7159 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7160 [Bodo Moeller]
7161
7162 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7163 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7164 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7165 [Richard Levitte]
7166
7167 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7168 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7169 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7170 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7171 to allow the various flags to be set.
7172 [Steve Henson]
7173
7174 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7175 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7176 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7177 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7178 dates to be checked.
7179 [Steve Henson]
7180
7181 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7182 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7183 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7184 [Steve Henson]
7185
7186 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7187 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7188 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7189 [Steve Henson]
7190
7191 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7192 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7193 [Bodo Moeller]
7194
7195 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7196 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7197 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7198 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7199 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7200 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7201 [Richard Levitte]
7202
7203 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7204 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7205 Random Numbers.
7206 [Ulf Möller]
7207
7208 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7209 DSA key.
7210 [Steve Henson]
7211
7212 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7213 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7214 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7215 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7216 form signing output easier to verify.
7217 [Steve Henson]
7218
7219 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7220 [Steve Henson]
7221
7222 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7223 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7224 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7225 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7226 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7227 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7228 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7229 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7230 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7231 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7232 [Steve Henson]
7233
7234 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7235
7236 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7237 the syntax given in objects.README.
7238 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7239 obj_mac.h.
7240 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7241 obj_mac.h.
7242
7243 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7244 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7245 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7246 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7247 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7248 consistent name changes.
7249 [Richard Levitte]
7250
7251 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7252 [Bodo Moeller]
7253
7254 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7255 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7256 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7257 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7258 [Richard Levitte]
7259
7260 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7261 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7262 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7263 of safestack.h .
7264 [Steve Henson]
7265
7266 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7267 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7268 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7269 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7270 [Steve Henson]
7271
7272 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7273 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7274 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7275 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7276 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7277 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7278 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7279 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7280 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7281 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7282 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7283 [Steve Henson]
7284
7285 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7286 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7287 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7288 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7289 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7290 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7291 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7292 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7293 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7294 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7295 [Steve Henson]
7296
7297 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7298 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7299 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7300 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7301
7302 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7303 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7304 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7305 omit any duplicate addresses.
7306 [Steve Henson]
7307
7308 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7309 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7310 [Bodo Moeller]
7311
7312 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7313 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7314 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7315 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7316 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7317 [Bodo Moeller]
7318
7319 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7320 software:
7321 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7322 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7323 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7324 Free => OPENSSL_free
7325 [Richard Levitte]
7326
7327 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7328 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7329 [Bodo Moeller]
7330
7331 *) CygWin32 support.
7332 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7333
7334 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7335 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7336 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7337 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7338 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7339 approach.
7340 [Geoff Thorpe]
7341
7342 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7343 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7344 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7345 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7346 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7347 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7348 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7349 [Geoff Thorpe]
7350
7351 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7352 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7353 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7354 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7355 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7356 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7357 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7358 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7359 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7360 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7361 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7362 [Bodo Moeller]
7363
7364 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7365 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7366 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7367 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7368 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7369
7370 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7371 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7372 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7373 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7374 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7375
7376 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7377 ciphers.
7378
7379 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7380 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7381 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7382 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7383
7384 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7385
7386 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7387 of macros.
7388
7389 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7390 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7391 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7392 flags.
7393
7394 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7395 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7396 any installed hardware versions can.
7397 [Steve Henson]
7398
7399 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7400 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7401 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7402 number.
7403 [Bodo Moeller]
7404
7405 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7406 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7407 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7408 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7409 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7410
7411 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7412 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7413 [Steve Henson]
7414
7415 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7416 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7417 [Richard Levitte]
7418
7419 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7420 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7421 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7422 features.
7423 [Steve Henson]
7424
7425 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7426 [Ulf Möller]
7427
7428 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7429 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7430 but no ssl client purpose.
7431 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7432
7433 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7434 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7435 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7436 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7437 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7438 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7439 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7440 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7441 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7442 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7443 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7444 [Steve Henson]
7445
7446 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7447 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7448 be obtained from the error queue.
7449 [Bodo Moeller]
7450
7451 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7452 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7453 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7454 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7455 [Bodo Moeller]
7456
7457 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7458 [Ulf Möller]
7459
7460 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7461 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7462 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7463 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7464 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7465 [Geoff Thorpe]
7466
7467 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7468 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7469 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7470 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7471 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7472 [Geoff Thorpe]
7473
7474 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7475 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7476 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7477 may not be NULL.
7478 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7479
7480 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7481 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7482 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7483 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7484 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7485 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7486 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7487 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7488 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7489 or "the configuration storage API"...
7490
7491 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7492
7493 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7494 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7495
7496 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7497
7498 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7499
7500 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7501 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7502 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7503 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7504 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7505 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7506 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7507
7508 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7509 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7510 [Richard Levitte]
7511
7512 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7513 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7514 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7515 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7516 [Bodo Moeller]
7517
7518 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7519 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7520 them in a portable way.
7521 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7522
7523 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7524
7525 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7526
7527 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7528 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7529
7530 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7531 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7532 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7533 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7534
7535 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7536 was larger than the MD block size.
7537 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7538
7539 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7540 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7541 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7542 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7543 components.
7544 [Steve Henson]
7545
7546 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7547 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7548 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7549
7550 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7551 discouraged.
7552 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7553
7554 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7555 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7556 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7557 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7558 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7559 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7560
7561 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7562 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7563
7564 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7565 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7566 [Bodo Moeller]
7567
7568 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7569 [Bodo Moeller]
7570
7571 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7572 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7573 its own key.
7574 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7575 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7576 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7577 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7578 [Bodo Moeller]
7579
7580 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7581 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7582 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7583 does not suppress any output.
7584 [Richard Levitte]
7585
7586 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7587 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7588 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7589 with all the associated security issues.
7590
7591 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7592 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7593 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7594 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7595 use the value in the default purpose.
7596 [Steve Henson]
7597
7598 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7599 and fix a memory leak.
7600 [Steve Henson]
7601
7602 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7603 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7604 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7605 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7606 [Bodo Moeller]
7607
7608 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7609 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7610 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7611 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7612 [Bodo Moeller]
7613
7614 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7615 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7616 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7617 [Bodo Moeller]
7618
7619 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7620 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7621 [Bodo Moeller]
7622
7623 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7624 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7625 which was free.
7626 [Steve Henson]
7627
7628 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7629 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7630 [Bodo Moeller]
7631
7632 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7633 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7634 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7635 [Bodo Moeller]
7636
7637 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7638 number generation fails.
7639 [Bodo Moeller]
7640
7641 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7642 [Bodo Moeller]
7643
7644 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7645 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7646
7647 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7648 [Ulf Möller]
7649
7650 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7651 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7652
7653 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7654 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7655
7656 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7657
7658 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7659 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7660 [Steve Henson]
7661
7662 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7663 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7664
7665 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7666 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7667 [Ulf Möller]
7668
7669 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7670 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7671 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7672 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7673 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7674 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7675
7676 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7677 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7678 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7679 for example.
7680 [Steve Henson]
7681
7682 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7683 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7684 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7685 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7686 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7687 counter, some don't.)
7688 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7689 counters or duplicate objects.
7690 [Steve Henson]
7691
7692 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7693 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7694 [Steve Henson]
7695
7696 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7697 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7698 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7699
7700 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7701 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7702 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7703 or -rand.
7704 [Ulf Möller]
7705
7706 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7707 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7708 [Steve Henson]
7709
7710 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7711 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7712 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7713 cipher list.
7714 [Steve Henson]
7715
7716 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7717 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7718 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7719 [Steve Henson]
7720
7721 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7722 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7723 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7724 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7725 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7726 should work without changes.
7727 [Richard Levitte]
7728
7729 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7730 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7731 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7732 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7733 must be defined. E.g.,
7734 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7735 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7736 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
7737 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
7738
7739 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7740 record layer.
7741 [Bodo Moeller]
7742
7743 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7744 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7745 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7746 [Steve Henson]
7747
7748 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7749 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7750 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7751 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7752 [Steve Henson]
7753
7754 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7755 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7756 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7757 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7758 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7759 is prompted for as usual.
7760 [Steve Henson]
7761
7762 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7763 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7764 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7765 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7766
7767 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7768 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7769 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7770 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7771 [Steve Henson]
7772
7773 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7774 [Andy Polyakov]
7775
7776 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7777 of seed file.
7778 [Steve Henson]
7779
7780 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
7781 [Bodo Moeller]
7782
7783 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7784 [Steve Henson]
7785
7786 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7787 bits.
7788 [Ulf Möller]
7789
7790 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7791 [Ulf Möller]
7792
7793 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7794 [Andy Polyakov]
7795
7796 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7797 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7798 [Ulf Möller]
7799
7800 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7801 options to produce them.
7802 [Steve Henson]
7803
7804 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7805 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7806 [Ulf Möller]
7807
7808 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7809 for p == 0.
7810 [Ulf Möller]
7811
7812 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7813 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7814 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7815 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7816 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7817 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7818 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7819 [Steve Henson]
7820
7821 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7822 [Steve Henson]
7823
7824 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7825 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7826 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7827 [Bodo Moeller]
7828
7829 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
7830 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
7831
7832 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7833 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7834 [Ulf Möller]
7835
7836 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7837 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7838 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7839 has already seen).
7840 [Bodo Moeller]
7841
7842 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7843 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7844
7845 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7846 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7847 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7848 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7849 generation becomes much faster.
7850
7851 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
7852 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7853 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7854 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7855 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7856 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7857 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7858 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7859 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7860 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
7861 [Bodo Moeller]
7862
7863 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
7864 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
7865 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
7866 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
7867 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
7868 trial division stage.
7869 [Bodo Moeller]
7870
7871 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
7872 as ASN1_TIME.
7873 [Steve Henson]
7874
7875 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
7876 [Steve Henson]
7877
7878 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
7879 [Ulf Möller]
7880
7881 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
7882 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
7883 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
7884 the comments.
7885 [Ulf Möller]
7886
7887 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
7888 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
7889 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
7890 [Bodo Moeller]
7891
7892 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
7893 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
7894 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
7895 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7896
7897 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
7898 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
7899 [Steve Henson]
7900
7901 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
7902 [Ulf Möller]
7903
7904 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
7905 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
7906 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
7907 Rabin-Miller iterations.
7908 [Ulf Möller]
7909
7910 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
7911 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
7912 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
7913 [Ulf Möller]
7914
7915 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
7916 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
7917 (instead of parameters) in future.
7918 [Steve Henson]
7919
7920 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
7921 when a new cipher list is set.
7922 [Steve Henson]
7923
7924 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
7925 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
7926 wrong.
7927
7928 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
7929 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
7930 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
7931
7932 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
7933 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
7934 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
7935 an error is flagged.
7936
7937 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
7938 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
7939 the readability was also increased :-)
7940 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7941
7942 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
7943 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
7944 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
7945 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
7946 as the root CA.
7947 [Steve Henson]
7948
7949 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
7950 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
7951 [Steve Henson]
7952
7953 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
7954 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
7955 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
7956 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
7957 instead.
7958
7959 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
7960 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
7961 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
7962 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
7963 because they handle more complex structures.)
7964 [Steve Henson]
7965
7966 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
7967 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
7968 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
7969 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7970
7971 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
7972 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
7973 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
7974 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
7975 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
7976 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
7977 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
7978 [Ulf Möller]
7979
7980 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
7981 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
7982 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
7983 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
7984 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
7985 [Bodo Moeller]
7986
7987 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
7988 [Bodo Moeller]
7989
7990 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
7991 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
7992 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
7993 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
7994 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
7995 to use this.
7996
7997 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
7998 code.
7999 [Steve Henson]
8000
8001 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8002 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8003 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8004 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8005 [Steve Henson]
8006
8007 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8008 [Ulf Möller]
8009
8010 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8011 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8012 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8013 international characters are used.
8014
8015 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8016 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8017 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8018 in ASN1 order.
8019 [Steve Henson]
8020
8021 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8022 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8023 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8024 request.
8025
8026 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8027 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8028 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8029 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8030 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8031 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8032
8033 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8034 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8035 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8036 be handled by the string table functions.
8037
8038 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8039 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8040 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8041 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8042 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8043 types at all.
8044 [Steve Henson]
8045
8046 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8047 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8048 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8049 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8050 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8051
8052 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8053 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8054 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8055 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8056 [Bodo Moeller]
8057
8058 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8059 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8060 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8061 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8062 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8063 SHA1.
8064 [Andy Polyakov]
8065
8066 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8067 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8068 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8069 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8070 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8071 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8072 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8073 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8074
8075 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8076 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8077 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8078 [Steve Henson]
8079
8080 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8081 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8082 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8083 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8084 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8085 support to pkcs8 application.
8086 [Steve Henson]
8087
8088 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8089 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8090 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8091 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8092 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8093 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8094 [Bodo Moeller]
8095
8096 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8097 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8098 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8099 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8100 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8101 consistency.
8102 [Bodo Moeller]
8103
8104 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8105 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8106 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8107 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8108 example.
8109 [Steve Henson]
8110
8111 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8112 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8113 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8114 and any application specific purposes.
8115
8116 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8117 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8118 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8119 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8120 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8121 if the certificate is self signed.
8122 [Steve Henson]
8123
8124 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8125 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8126 [Steve Henson]
8127
8128 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8129 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8130 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8131 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8132 [Steve Henson]
8133
8134 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8135 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8136 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8137 Update documentation.
8138 [Steve Henson]
8139
8140 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8141 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8142 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8143 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8144 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8145 [Steve Henson]
8146
8147 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8148 for details.
8149 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8150
8151 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8152 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8153 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8154 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8155 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8156 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8157 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8158 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8159 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8160 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8161
8162 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8163
8164 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8165 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8166 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8167 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8168 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8169
8170 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8171 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8172 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8173 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8174 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8175 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8176 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8177 request additional information:
8178 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8179 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8180
8181 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8182 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8183 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8184 options.
8185
8186 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8187 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8188
8189 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8190 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8191 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8192
8193 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8194 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8195
8196 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8197 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8198 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8199 algorithm.
8200 [Steve Henson]
8201
8202 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8203 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8204 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8205
8206 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8207 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8208 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8209 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8210 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8211 included in OpenSSL.
8212 [Steve Henson]
8213
8214 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8215 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8216 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8217 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8218 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8219 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8220 [Bodo Moeller]
8221
8222 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8223 PKCS12 structure.
8224 [Steve Henson]
8225
8226 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8227 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8228 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8229 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8230 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8231 structure.
8232 [Steve Henson]
8233
8234 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8235 need initialising.
8236 [Steve Henson]
8237
8238 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8239 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8240 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8241 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8242 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8243 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8244 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8245 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8246 be maintained manually.
8247
8248 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8249 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8250 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8251 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8252 work because people forget to call this function]
8253 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8254 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8255 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8256 [Steve Henson]
8257
8258 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8259 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8260 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8261 should be discouraged from doing it.
8262 [Ben Laurie]
8263
8264 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8265 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8266 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8267 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8268 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8269 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8270 [Steve Henson]
8271
8272 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8273 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8274 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8275
8276 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8277 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8278 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8279
8280 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8281 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8282 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8283 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8284 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8285 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8286
8287 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8288 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8289 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8290
8291 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8292 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8293 and vice versa.
8294
8295 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8296 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8297 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8298 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8299 [Steve Henson]
8300
8301 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8302 [Steve Henson]
8303
8304 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8305 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8306 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8307 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8308 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8309 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8310 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8311 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8312 keys so we should be OK.
8313
8314 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8315 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8316 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8317 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8318 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8319 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8320 stay in the name of compatibility.
8321
8322 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8323 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8324 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8325
8326 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8327 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8328 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8329 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8330 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8331 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8332 supplied key).
8333 [Steve Henson]
8334
8335 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8336 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8337 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8338 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8339 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8340 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8341 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8342 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8343 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8344 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8345 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8346 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8347 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8348 [Steve Henson]
8349
8350 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8351 [Steve Henson]
8352
8353 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8354 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8355 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8356 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8357 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8358 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8359 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8360 openssl verify ss.pem
8361 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8362 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8363 is OK.
8364 [Steve Henson]
8365
8366 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8367 (and add it to external session representation).
8368 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8369 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8370 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8371 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8372 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8373 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8374 security holes.
8375 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8376
8377 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8378 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8379 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8380 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8381
8382 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8383 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8384 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8385 [Steve Henson]
8386
8387 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8388 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8389 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8390 code.
8391 [Steve Henson]
8392
8393 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8394 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8395 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8396
8397 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8398 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8399 certificate auxiliary information.
8400 [Steve Henson]
8401
8402 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8403 the 'enc' command.
8404 [Steve Henson]
8405
8406 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8407 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8408 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8409 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8410 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8411 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8412 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8413 [Richard Levitte]
8414
8415 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8416 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8417 [Steve Henson]
8418
8419 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8420 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8421 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8422 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8423 [Steve Henson]
8424
8425 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8426 [Steve Henson]
8427
8428 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8429 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8430 [Steve Henson]
8431
8432 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8433 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8434 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8435 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8436 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8437 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8438 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8439 using the new 'x509' options.
8440
8441 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8442 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8443 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8444 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8445 for all purposes.
8446 [Steve Henson]
8447
8448 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8449 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8450 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8451 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8452 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8453 [Mark Cox]
8454
8455 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8456 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8457 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8458 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8459 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8460 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8461 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8462 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8463 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8464 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8465 [Steve Henson]
8466
8467 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8468 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8469 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8470 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8471 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8472 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8473 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8474 [Steve Henson]
8475
8476 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8477 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8478 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8479 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8480 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8481 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8482 openssl.cnf for more info.
8483 [Steve Henson]
8484
8485 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8486 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8487 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8488 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8489 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8490 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8491 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8492 md should be large enough anyway.
8493 [Bodo Moeller]
8494
8495 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8496 for handling the random seed file.
8497
8498 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8499 ca,
8500 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8501 s_client,
8502 s_server,
8503 x509 (when signing).
8504 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8505 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8506 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8507
8508 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8509 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8510 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8511 that support '-rand'.
8512 [Bodo Moeller]
8513
8514 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8515 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8516 [Bodo Moeller]
8517
8518 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8519 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8520 [Bill Perry]
8521
8522 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8523 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8524 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8525 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8526 is suitable.
8527 [Steve Henson]
8528
8529 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8530 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8531 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8532 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8533 [Steve Henson]
8534
8535 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8536 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8537 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8538 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8539 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8540 print out all the purposes.
8541 [Steve Henson]
8542
8543 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8544 functions.
8545 [Steve Henson]
8546
8547 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8548 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8549 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8550 single function call.
8551 [Steve Henson]
8552
8553 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8554 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8555 [Andy Polyakov]
8556
8557 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8558 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8559 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8560 [Steve Henson]
8561
8562 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8563 when producing the local key id.
8564 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8565
8566 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8567 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8568 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8569 "server.pem".
8570 [Steve Henson]
8571
8572 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8573 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8574 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8575 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8576 [Steve Henson]
8577
8578 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8579 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8580 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8581 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8582
8583 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8584 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8585 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8586 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8587
8588 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8589 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8590 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8591 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8592 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8593 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8594 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8595 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8596 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8597 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8598 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8599 trivial: move one line.
8600 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8601
8602 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8603 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8604 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8605 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8606 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8607 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8608 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8609 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8610 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8611 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8612 with an event loop for example.
8613 [Steve Henson]
8614
8615 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8616 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8617 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8618 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8619 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8620 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8621 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8622 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8623 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8624 [Steve Henson]
8625
8626 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8627 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8628 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8629 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8630 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8631 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8632 [Steve Henson]
8633
8634 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8635 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8636 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8637 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8638
8639 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8640 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8641 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8642 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8643 key generation.
8644 [Steve Henson]
8645
8646 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8647 (still largely untested)
8648 [Bodo Moeller]
8649
8650 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8651 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8652 [Steve Henson]
8653
8654 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8655 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8656 [Steve Henson]
8657
8658 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8659 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8660 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8661 [Bodo Moeller]
8662
8663 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8664 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8665 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8666 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8667 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8668 [Steve Henson]
8669
8670 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8671 [Andy Polyakov]
8672
8673 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8674 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8675 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8676 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8677 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8678 in ca.
8679 [Steve Henson]
8680
8681 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8682 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8683 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8684 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8685 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8686 [Steve Henson]
8687
8688 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8689 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8690 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8691 are otherwise ignored at present.
8692 [Steve Henson]
8693
8694 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
8695 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
8696 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8697 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8698 copied until the next read.
8699 [Steve Henson]
8700
8701 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8702 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8703 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8704 [Steve Henson]
8705
8706 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8707 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8708 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8709 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8710 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8711 associated functions.
8712 [Steve Henson]
8713
8714 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8715 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8716 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8717 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8718 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8719 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8720 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8721 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8722 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
8723 memory BIOs.
8724 [Steve Henson]
8725
8726 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8727 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8728 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8729 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8730 [Bodo Moeller]
8731
8732 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8733 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8734 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8735 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8736 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8737 functionality.
8738 [Steve Henson]
8739
8740 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8741 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8742 under Win32.
8743 [Steve Henson]
8744
8745 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
8746 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8747 extensions to be obtained and added.
8748 [Steve Henson]
8749
8750 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
8751 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
8752 [Bodo Moeller]
8753
8754 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
8755
8756 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8757 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8758
8759 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
8760 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
8761
8762 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8763 program.
8764 [Steve Henson]
8765
8766 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8767 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8768 DH parameters contain its length).
8769
8770 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8771 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8772 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8773 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8774 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8775 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8776 utter importance to use
8777 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8778 or
8779 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8780 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8781 attacks may become possible!
8782 [Bodo Moeller]
8783
8784 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8785 [Bodo Moeller]
8786
8787 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8788 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8789 [Steve Henson]
8790
8791 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8792 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8793 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8794 or long name.
8795 [Steve Henson]
8796
8797 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8798 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8799 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8800 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
8801 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8802 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8803 private key operations.
8804 [Steve Henson]
8805
8806 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
8807 [Andy Polyakov]
8808
8809 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8810 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8811 to
8812 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8813 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8814 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8815 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8816 the password callback is called.
8817 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
8818
8819 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8820
8821 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8822 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8823 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8824 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8825 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8826 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8827 this will work.
8828
8829 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
8830 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
8831 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
8832 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
8833 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
8834 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
8835 [Bodo Moeller]
8836
8837 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
8838 [Andy Polyakov]
8839
8840 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
8841 delete an unused file.
8842 [Ulf Möller]
8843
8844 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8845 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8846 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
8847 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
8848 [Steve Henson]
8849
8850 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
8851 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
8852 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
8853 of an error.
8854 [Bodo Moeller]
8855
8856 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
8857 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
8858 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8859
8860 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
8861 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
8862 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
8863 comparison" warnings.
8864 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
8868 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
8869 derived keys are printed to stderr.
8870 [Steve Henson]
8871
8872 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
8873 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
8874
8875 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
8876 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
8877
8878 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
8879 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
8880 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
8881
8882 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
8883 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
8884 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
8885 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
8886 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
8887 this bug.
8888 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
8889
8890 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
8891 The interface is as follows:
8892 Applications can use
8893 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
8894 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
8895 "off" is now the default.
8896 The library internally uses
8897 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
8898 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
8899 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
8900
8901 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
8902 even the default) are now avoided.
8903
8904 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
8905 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
8906 than just having a counter.
8907
8908 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
8909
8910 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
8911 extensions.
8912 [Bodo Moeller]
8913
8914 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
8915 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
8916 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
8917 Initial "mode" flags are:
8918
8919 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
8920 a single record has been written.
8921 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
8922 retries use the same buffer location.
8923 (But all of the contents must be
8924 copied!)
8925 [Bodo Moeller]
8926
8927 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
8928 worked.
8929
8930 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
8931 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
8932
8933 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
8934 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
8935 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
8936 [Steve Henson]
8937
8938 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
8939 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
8940 test programs.
8941 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
8942
8943 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
8944 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
8945 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
8946 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
8947 point to the end.
8948 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
8949 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
8950
8951 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
8952 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
8953 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
8954 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
8955 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
8956 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
8957 [Steve Henson]
8958
8959 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
8960 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
8961 necessary function names.
8962 [Steve Henson]
8963
8964 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
8965 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
8966 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
8967 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
8968 [Bodo Moeller]
8969
8970 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
8971 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
8972 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
8973 [Steve Henson]
8974
8975 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
8976 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
8977 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
8978 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
8979 such programs?)
8980 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
8981 need locks.
8982 [Bodo Moeller]
8983
8984 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
8985 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
8986 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
8987 [Bodo Moeller]
8988
8989 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
8990 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
8991 appropriate.
8992 [Bodo Moeller]
8993
8994 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
8995 for the encoded length.
8996 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
8997
8998 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
8999 [Steve Henson]
9000
9001 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9002 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9003 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9004 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9005 [Steve Henson]
9006
9007 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9008 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9009 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9010
9011 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9012 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9013 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9014 unusual formatting.
9015 [Steve Henson]
9016
9017 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9018 to use the new extension code.
9019 [Steve Henson]
9020
9021 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9022 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9023 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9024 constant.
9025 [Steve Henson]
9026
9027 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9028 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9029 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9030 [Bodo Moeller]
9031
9032 #if 0
9033 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9034 [Ben Laurie]
9035 #else
9036 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9037 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9038 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9039 #endif
9040
9041 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9042 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9043 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9044 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9045 [Ben Laurie]
9046
9047 *) DES library cleanups.
9048 [Ulf Möller]
9049
9050 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9051 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9052 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9053 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9054 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9055 of v2.0.
9056 [Steve Henson]
9057
9058 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9059 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9060 [Bodo Moeller]
9061
9062 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9063 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9064 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9065 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9066 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9067 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9068 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9069 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9070 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9071 [Steve Henson]
9072
9073 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9074 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9075 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9076 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9077 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9078 value doesn't matter.
9079 [Steve Henson]
9080
9081 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9082 support mutable.
9083 [Ben Laurie]
9084
9085 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9086 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9087 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9088 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9089
9090 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9091 [Ulf Möller]
9092
9093 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9094 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9095 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9096
9097 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9098 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9099
9100 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9101 [Ben Laurie]
9102
9103 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9104 [Ben Laurie]
9105
9106 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9107 [Ben Laurie]
9108
9109 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9110 [Bodo Moeller]
9111
9112
9113 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9114
9115 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9116
9117 *) Updated some demos.
9118 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9119
9120 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9121 [Wu Zhigang]
9122
9123 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9124 [Steve Henson]
9125
9126 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9127 [Steve Henson]
9128
9129 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9130 instead of using a fixed path.
9131 [Bodo Moeller]
9132
9133 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9134 [Andy Polyakov]
9135
9136 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9137 [Richard Levitte]
9138
9139
9140 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9141
9142 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9143 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9144 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9145
9146 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9147 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9148 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9149 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9150 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9151 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9152 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9153 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9154 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9155 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9156 [Steve Henson]
9157
9158 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9159 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9160 [Steve Henson]
9161
9162 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9163 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9164 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9165 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9166 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9167
9168 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9169 [Bodo Moeller]
9170
9171 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9172 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9173 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9174 [Steve Henson]
9175
9176 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9177 [Ben Laurie]
9178
9179 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9180 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9181 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9182 key elements as negative integers.
9183 [Steve Henson]
9184
9185 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9186 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9187
9188 *) VMS support.
9189 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9190
9191 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9192 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9193 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9194 [Steve Henson]
9195
9196 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9197 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9198 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9199 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9200 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9201 [Bodo Moeller]
9202
9203 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9204 [Ulf Möller]
9205
9206 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9207 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9208 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9209 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9210
9211 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9212 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9213 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9214
9215 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9216 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9217 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9218 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9219 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9220 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9221 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9222 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9223 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9224
9225 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9226 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9227 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9228 does not influence s as it used to.
9229
9230 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9231 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9232 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9233 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9234 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9235 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9236 [Bodo Moeller]
9237
9238 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9239 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9240 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9241 key type.
9242 [Steve Henson]
9243
9244 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9245 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9246 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9247 and 'x509').
9248 [Steve Henson]
9249
9250 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9251 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9252 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9253 extension option.
9254 [Steve Henson]
9255
9256 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9257 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9258 [Ben Laurie]
9259
9260 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9261 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9262
9263 *) Support Mingw32.
9264 [Ulf Möller]
9265
9266 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9267 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9268
9269 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9270 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9271
9272 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9273 [Ulf Möller]
9274
9275 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9276 [Anonymous]
9277
9278 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9279 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9280
9281 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9282 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9283 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9284 DER-encoded.)
9285 [Bodo Moeller]
9286
9287 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9288 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9289 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9290 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9291 now it really counts the depth.
9292 [Bodo Moeller]
9293
9294 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9295 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9296 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9297 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9298 didn't match the private key).
9299
9300 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9301 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9302 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9303 [Bodo Moeller]
9304
9305 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9306 [Ulf Möller]
9307
9308 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9309 David Harris.
9310 [Bodo Moeller]
9311
9312 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9313 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9314 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9315 [Bodo Moeller]
9316
9317 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9318 [Bodo Moeller]
9319
9320 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9321 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9322 such as /usr/local/bin.
9323 [Bodo Moeller]
9324
9325 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9326 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9327
9328 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9329 [Ulf Möller]
9330
9331 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9332 extension adding in x509 utility.
9333 [Steve Henson]
9334
9335 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9336 [Ulf Möller]
9337
9338 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9339 prototypes.
9340 [Steve Henson]
9341
9342 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9343 [Ulf Möller]
9344
9345 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9346 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9347 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9348 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9349 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9350 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9351 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9352 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9353 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9354 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9355 [Steve Henson]
9356
9357 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9358 [Bodo Moeller]
9359
9360 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9361 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9362 [Bodo Moeller]
9363
9364 *) Fix some race conditions.
9365 [Bodo Moeller]
9366
9367 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9368 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9369 [Steve Henson]
9370
9371 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9372 [Ulf Möller]
9373
9374 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9375 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9376 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9377 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9378
9379 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9380 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9381
9382 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9383 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9384 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9385
9386 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9387 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9388
9389 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9390 [Ulf Möller]
9391
9392 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9393 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9394
9395 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9396 [Ulf Möller]
9397
9398 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9399 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9400
9401 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9402 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9403 [Steve Henson]
9404
9405 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9406 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9407 [Ben Laurie]
9408
9409 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9410 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9411 [Steve Henson]
9412
9413 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9414 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9415 [Steve Henson]
9416
9417 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9418 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9419 [Steve Henson]
9420
9421 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9422 support typesafe stack.
9423 [Steve Henson]
9424
9425 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9426 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9427
9428 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9429 old X509V3 handling code.
9430 [Steve Henson]
9431
9432 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9433 [Ulf Möller]
9434
9435 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9436 [Bodo Moeller]
9437
9438 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9439 [Ben Laurie]
9440
9441 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9442 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9443
9444 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9445 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9446 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9447 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9448 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9449 [Ben Laurie]
9450
9451 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9452 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9453 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9454 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9455 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9456
9457 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9458 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9459 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9460 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9461
9462 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9463 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9464 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9465 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9466
9467 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9468 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9469 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9470 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9471 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9472 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9473 [Bodo Moeller]
9474
9475 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9476 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9477 [Bodo Moeller]
9478
9479 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9480 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9481 [Ulf Möller]
9482
9483 *) Tweaks to Configure
9484 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9485
9486 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9487 yet...
9488 [Steve Henson]
9489
9490 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9491 [Ulf Möller]
9492
9493 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9494 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9495 [Ulf Möller]
9496
9497 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9498 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9499 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9500 [Bodo Moeller]
9501
9502 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9503 [Bodo Moeller]
9504
9505 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9506 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9507 [Steve Henson]
9508
9509 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9510 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9511 to library startup routines.
9512 [Steve Henson]
9513
9514 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9515 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9516 codes along the way.
9517 [Steve Henson]
9518
9519 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9520 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9521 objects to objects.h
9522 [Steve Henson]
9523
9524 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9525 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9526 [Steve Henson]
9527
9528 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9529 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9530
9531 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9532 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9533 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9534
9535 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9536 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9537 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9538
9539 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9540 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9541 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9542
9543
9544 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9545
9546 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9547 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9548 [Ben Laurie]
9549
9550 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9551 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9552 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9553 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9554 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9555
9556 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9557 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9558 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9559 document.
9560 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9561
9562 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9563 Malloc, Free.
9564 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9565
9566 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9567 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9568
9569 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9570 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9571 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9572 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9573
9574 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9575 [Ben Laurie]
9576
9577 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9578 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9579 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9580 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9581 [Steve Henson]
9582
9583 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9584 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9585 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9586 [Steve Henson]
9587
9588 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9589 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9590 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9591 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9592 installed as `perl').
9593 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9594
9595 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9596 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9597
9598 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9599 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9600 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9601 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9602 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9603 [Steve Henson]
9604
9605 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9606 [Ben Laurie]
9607
9608 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9609 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9610 is horrible: I feel ill....
9611 [Steve Henson]
9612
9613 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9614 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9615 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9616 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9617 [Steve Henson]
9618
9619 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9620 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9621
9622 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9623 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9624 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9625 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9626
9627 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9628 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9629 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9630 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9631 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9632 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9633 openssl_bio.xs.
9634 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9635
9636 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9637 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9638
9639 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9640 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9641
9642 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9643 [Ben Laurie]
9644
9645 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9646 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9647 in CRLs.
9648 [Steve Henson]
9649
9650 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9651 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9652 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9653 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9654 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9655 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9656 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9657 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9658 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9659 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9660 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9661
9662 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9663 [Ben Laurie]
9664
9665 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9666 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9667 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9668 for linking it into DSOs.
9669 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9670
9671 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9672 Fixed.
9673 [Ben Laurie]
9674
9675 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9676 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9677 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9678 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9679 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9680 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9681
9682 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9683 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9684 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9685 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9686 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9687 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9688 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9689
9690 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9691 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9692 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9693 encryption.
9694 [Ben Laurie]
9695
9696 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9697 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9698 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9699 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9700 [Steve Henson]
9701
9702 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9703 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9704 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9705 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9706 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9707 field as blank.
9708 [Steve Henson]
9709
9710 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9711 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9712 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9713 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9714 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9715
9716 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9717 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9718 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9719
9720 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9721 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9722
9723 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9724 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9725 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9726 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9727 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9728 [Steve Henson]
9729
9730 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9731 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9732 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9733 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9734 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
9735 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9736 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9737 [Ben Laurie]
9738
9739 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9740 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9741 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9742 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9743 [Ben Laurie]
9744
9745 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9746 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
9747
9748 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9749 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9750 [Steve Henson]
9751
9752 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9753 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9754 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9755 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9756 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9757 (e.g. s_server).
9758 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9759 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9760 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9761 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9762 no way to reconfigure them.
9763 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9764 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9765 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9766 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9767 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9768 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9769
9770 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9771 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9772 recognized by the users.
9773 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9774
9775 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9776 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9777 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9778 already masked variable.
9779 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9780
9781 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
9782 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9783
9784 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9785 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9786 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
9787 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9788
9789 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9790 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9791 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9792
9793 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9794 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9795 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9796 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9797 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9798 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9799 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9800 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9801 now, too.
9802 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9803
9804 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
9805 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
9806 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9807
9808 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
9809 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
9810 config file.
9811 [Steve Henson]
9812
9813 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
9814 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9815
9816 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9817 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9818 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
9819 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
9820 [Ben Laurie]
9821
9822 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
9823 [Steve Henson]
9824
9825 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
9826 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9827
9828 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
9829 [Ben Laurie]
9830
9831 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
9832 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
9833 [Steve Henson]
9834
9835 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
9836 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
9837 [Steve Henson]
9838
9839 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9840 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9841 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9842 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9843 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9844 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
9845 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
9846 Ben Laurie]
9847
9848 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9849 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9850
9851 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9852 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9853 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9854 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9855 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9856
9857 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9858 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
9859 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
9860 [Steve Henson]
9861
9862 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9863 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
9864 an example.
9865 [Steve Henson]
9866
9867 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
9868 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
9869 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9870
9871 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
9872 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
9873 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
9874 build instructions.
9875 [Steve Henson]
9876
9877 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
9878 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
9879 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
9880 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
9881 [Steve Henson]
9882
9883 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
9884 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
9885 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
9886 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
9887 [Ben Laurie]
9888
9889 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
9890 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
9891 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
9892 so it wasn't spotted.
9893 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
9894
9895 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
9896 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
9897 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
9898 vectors if you have them.
9899 [Ben Laurie]
9900
9901 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
9902 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
9903 [Ben Laurie]
9904
9905 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
9906 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
9907 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
9908 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
9909 If you do a:
9910 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
9911 it will update them.
9912 [Steve Henson]
9913
9914 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
9915 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
9916 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
9917 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
9918 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
9919 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
9920 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
9921 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9922
9923 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
9924 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
9925 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
9926 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
9927 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
9928 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
9929 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
9930 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
9931 the crypto/md/ stuff).
9932 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9933
9934 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
9935 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
9936 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
9937 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
9938 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
9939 [Steve Henson]
9940
9941 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
9942 INTEGER code.
9943 [Steve Henson]
9944
9945 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
9946 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9947
9948 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
9949 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9950
9951 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
9952 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
9953 [Ben Laurie]
9954
9955 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
9956 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
9957
9958 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
9959 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
9960
9961 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
9962 [Steve Henson]
9963
9964 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
9965 few typos.
9966 [Steve Henson]
9967
9968 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
9969 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
9970 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
9971 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9972
9973 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9974 [Steve Henson]
9975
9976 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9977 [Steve Henson]
9978
9979 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
9980 [Steve Henson]
9981
9982 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
9983 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
9984 [Steve Henson]
9985
9986 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
9987 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
9988 CA extensions.
9989 [Steve Henson]
9990
9991 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
9992 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
9993 [Steve Henson]
9994
9995 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
9996 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
9997 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
9998 [Steve Henson]
9999
10000 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10001 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10002 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10003 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10004 properly to be processed.
10005 [Steve Henson]
10006
10007 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10008 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10009 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10010 [Ben Laurie]
10011
10012 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10013 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10014
10015 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10016 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10017 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10018 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10019 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10020 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10021 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10022 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10023 or delete all the .err files.
10024 [Steve Henson]
10025
10026 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10027 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10028 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10029 to regenerate it if needed.
10030 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10031 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10032
10033 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10034 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10035
10036 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10037 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10038 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10039 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10040 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10041 [Steve Henson]
10042
10043 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10044 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10045
10046 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10047 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10048
10049 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10050 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10051 error, but didn't set one).
10052 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10053
10054 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10055 [Ben Laurie]
10056
10057 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10058 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10059 [Steve Henson]
10060
10061 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10062 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10063
10064 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10065 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10066 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10067 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10068 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10069 OID is not part of the table.
10070 [Steve Henson]
10071
10072 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10073 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10074 [Ben Laurie]
10075
10076 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10077 [Ben Laurie]
10078
10079 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10080 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10081 was "1234").
10082 [Steve Henson]
10083
10084 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10085 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10086
10087 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10088 NULL pointers.
10089 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10090
10091 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10092 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10093
10094 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10095 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10096
10097 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10098 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10099
10100 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10101 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10102 [Ben Laurie]
10103
10104 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10105 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10106 [Steve Henson]
10107
10108 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10109 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10110
10111 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10112 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10113
10114 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10115 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10116
10117 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10118 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10119
10120 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10121 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10122 unused in the certificate verification process.
10123 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10124
10125 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10126 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10127 [Steve Henson]
10128
10129 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10130 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10131 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10132
10133 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10134 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10135 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10136 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10137 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10138
10139 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10140 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10141 [Steve Henson]
10142
10143 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10144 [Steve Henson]
10145
10146 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10147 [Paul Sutton]
10148
10149 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10150 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10151
10152 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10153 [Ben Laurie]
10154
10155 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10156 [Ben Laurie]
10157
10158 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10159 [Ben Laurie]
10160
10161 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10162 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10163 other error libraries.
10164 [Steve Henson]
10165
10166 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10167 [Steve Henson]
10168
10169 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10170 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10171 be read in.
10172 [Steve Henson]
10173
10174 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10175 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10176 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10177 the new set of documenation files.
10178 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10179
10180 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10181 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10182 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10183 number of arguments.
10184 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10185
10186 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10187 [Ben Laurie]
10188
10189 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10190 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10191 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10192
10193 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10194 [Ben Laurie]
10195
10196 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10197 nextstep
10198 ncr-scde
10199 unixware-2.0
10200 unixware-2.0-pentium
10201 sco5-cc.
10202 [Ben Laurie]
10203
10204 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10205 before they are needed.
10206 [Ben Laurie]
10207
10208 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10209 [Ben Laurie]
10210
10211
10212 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10213
10214 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10215 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10216 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10217
10218 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10219 [Paul Sutton]
10220
10221 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10222 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10223 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10224
10225 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10226 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10227 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10228
10229 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10230 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10231 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10232
10233 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10234 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10235
10236 *) Updated the README file.
10237 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10238
10239 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10240 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10241 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10242
10243 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10244 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10245 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10246
10247 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10248 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
10249 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
10250 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
10251 o removed obsolete TODO file
10252 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10253 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10254
10255 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10256 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10257 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10258 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10259 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10260 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10261 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10262
10263 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10264 [Mark J. Cox]
10265
10266 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10267 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10268 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10269 summer 1998.
10270 [The OpenSSL Project]
10271

10279 [Eric A. Young]
10280
10281 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10282 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10283 [Eric A. Young]
10284
10285 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10286 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10287 available).
10288 [Eric A. Young]
10289
10290 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10291 binary structures
10292 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
10293
10294 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
10295 [Eric A. Young]
10296
10297 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
10298 [Eric A. Young]
10299
10300 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
10301 [Eric A. Young]
10302
10303 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
10304 [Eric A. Young]
10305

10319 [Eric A. Young]
10320
10321 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
10322 [Eric A. Young]
10323
10324 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
10325 [Eric A. Young]
10326

10335
10336 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.

10340 [Eric A. Young]
10341
10342 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.

10344
10345 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
10346 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
10347 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
10348 [Eric A. Young]
10349
10350 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
10351 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
10352 [Eric A. Young]
10353
10354 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
10355 [Eric A. Young]
