4
5 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
8 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
9 [Steve Henson]
10
11 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
12 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
13 summary of the connection parameters.
14 [Steve Henson]
15
16 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
17 of connection parameters.
18 [Steve Henson]
19
20 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
21 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
22
23 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
24 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
25 [Steve Henson]
26
27 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
28 [Steve Henson]
29
30 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
31 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
32 [Steve Henson]
33
34 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
35 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
36 [Steve Henson]
37
38 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
39 certificates.
40 [Steve Henson]
41
42 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
43 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
44 CRLs using the OCSP API.
45 [Steve Henson]
46
47 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
48 [Steve Henson]
49
50 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
51 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
52 [Steve Henson]
53
54 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
55 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
56 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
57 tracing.
58 [Steve Henson]
59
60 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
61 Print out extension in s_server.
62 [Steve Henson]
63
64 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
65 OID NID.
66 [Steve Henson]
67
68 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
69 client to OpenSSL.
70 [Steve Henson]
71
72 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
73 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
74 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
75 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
76 [Steve Henson]
77
78 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
79 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
80 [Steve Henson]
81
82 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
83 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
84 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
85 comparison.
86 [Steve Henson]
87
88 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
89 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
90 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
91 use the certificate.
92 [Steve Henson]
93
94 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
95 [Steve Henson]
96
97 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
98 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
99 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
100 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
101 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
102 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
103 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
104
105 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
106 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
107
108 [Steve Henson]
109
110 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
111 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
112 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
113 [Steve Henson]
114
115 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
116 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
117 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
118 supported signature algorithms.
119 [Steve Henson]
120
121 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
122 [Steve Henson]
123
124 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
125 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
126 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
127 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
128 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
129 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
130 certificate and specify the whole chain.
131 [Steve Henson]
132
133 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
134 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
135 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
136 to have similar checks in it.
137
138 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
139 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
140 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
141 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
142 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
146 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
147 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
148 shared signature algorithms.
149 [Steve Henson]
150
151 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
152 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
153 to support them.
154 [Steve Henson]
155
156 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
157 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
158 it couldn't be removed.
159 [Steve Henson]
160
161 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
162 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
163 [Steve Henson]
164
165 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
166 functions. Add manual page.
167 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
168
169 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
170 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
171 a certificate.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) Fix OCSP checking.
175 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
176
177 *) Backport support for partial chain verification: if an intermediate
178 certificate is explicitly trusted (using -addtrust option to x509
179 utility for example) the verification is sucessful even if the chain
180 is not complete.
181 The OCSP checking fix depends on this backport.
182 [Steve Henson and Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
183
184 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
185 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
186 [Steve Henson]
187
188 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
189 platform support for Linux and Android.
190 [Andy Polyakov]
191
192 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
193 the right response is stapled. Also change current certificate to
194 the certificate actually sent.
195 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
196 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
197
198 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
199 [Andy Polyakov]
200
201 *) RFC 5878 support.
202 [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
203
204 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
205 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
206 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
207 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
208 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
209 [Steve Henson]
210
211 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
212 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
213 the new parameter format automatically.
214 [Steve Henson]
215
216 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
217 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
218 [Steve Henson]
219
220 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
221 [Steve Henson]
222
223 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
224 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
225 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
226 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
227 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
228 [Steve Henson]
229
230 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
231 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
232 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
233 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
234 to set list of supported curves.
235 [Steve Henson]
236
237 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
238 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
239 to print out received values.
240 [Steve Henson]
241
242 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
243 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
244 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
245 [Steve Henson]
246
247 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
248 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
249 [Steve Henson]
250
251 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
252 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
253 [Steve Henson]
254
255 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
256 certificates.
257 [Steve Henson]
258
259 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
260
261 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
262 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
263
264 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
265 [Steve Henson]
266
267 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
268 if renegotiating.
269 [Steve Henson]
270
271 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
272
273 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
274 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to avoid DoS attack.
275
276 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
277 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
278 (CVE-2012-2333)
279 [Steve Henson]
280
281 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
282 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
283 [Steve Henson]
284
285 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
286 approved.
287 [Steve Henson]
288
289 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
290
291 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
292 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
293 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
294 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
295 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
296 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
297 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
298 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
299 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
300 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
301 [Steve Henson]
302
303 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
304 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
305 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
306 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
307 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
308 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
309 client side.
310 [Andy Polyakov]
311
312 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
313
314 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
315 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
316 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
317
318 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
319 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
320 (CVE-2012-2110)
321 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
322
323 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
324 [Adam Langley]
325
326 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
327 record length exceeds 255 bytes:
328
329 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
330 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
331 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
332 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
333 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
334 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
335 Most broken servers should now work.
336 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
337 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
338 [Steve Henson]
339
340 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
341 [Andy Polyakov]
342
343 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
344
345 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
346 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
347 [Steve Henson]
348
349 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
350 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
351 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
352 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
353 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
354 [Steve Henson]
355
356 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
357 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
358 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
359 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
360 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
361 [Steve Henson]
362
363 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
364 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
365
366 *) Add support for SCTP.
367 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
368
369 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
370 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
371
372 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
373
374 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
375 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
376 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
377 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
378 - s390x: z196 support;
379 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
380
381 [Andy Polyakov]
382
383 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
384 (removal of unnecessary code)
385 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
386
387 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
388 [Eric Rescorla]
389
390 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
391 [Eric Rescorla]
392
393 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
394 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
395 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
396 by Google.
397 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
398
399 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
400 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
401 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
402 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
403 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
404
405 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
406 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
407 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
408
409 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
410 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
411 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
412
413 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
414 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
415 implementations).
416 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
417
418 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
419 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
420 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
421 [Steve Henson]
422
423 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
424 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
425 particular PSS.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
429 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
430 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
431 [Steve Henson]
432
433 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
434 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
435 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
436 the appropriate parameters.
437 [Steve Henson]
438
439 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
440 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
441 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
442 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
443 against a number of sample certificates.
444 [Steve Henson]
445
446 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
447 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
448
449 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
450 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
451
452 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
453 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
454 parameters r, s.
455 [Steve Henson]
456
457 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
458 RFC3211.
459 [Steve Henson]
460
461 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
462 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
463 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
464 password based CMS).
465 [Steve Henson]
466
467 *) Session-handling fixes:
468 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
469 but also support Session Tickets.
470 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
471 presented a ticket with an expired session.
472 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
473 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
474 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
475 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
476
477 *) Fix PSK session representation.
478 [Bodo Moeller]
479
480 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
481
482 This work was sponsored by Intel.
483 [Andy Polyakov]
484
485 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
486 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
487 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
488 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
489 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
490 [Steve Henson]
491
492 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
493 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
494 [Steve Henson]
495
496 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
497 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
498 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
499 [Steve Henson]
500
501 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
502 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
503 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
504 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
505 [Steve Henson]
506
507 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
508 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
509 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
510 [Steve Henson]
511
512 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
513 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
514
515 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
516 [Steve Henson]
517
518 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
519 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
520 [Steve Henson]
521
522 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
523 [Steve Henson]
524
525 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
526 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
527 [Steve Henson]
528
529 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
530 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
531 [Steve Henson]
532
533 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
534 [Steve Henson]
535
536 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
537 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
538 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
539 [Steve Henson]
540
541 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
542 [Steve Henson]
543
544 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
545 [Steve Henson]
546
547 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
548 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
549 [Steve Henson]
550
551 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
552 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
553 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
554 [Steve Henson]
555
556 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
560 and enable MD5.
561 [Steve Henson]
562
563 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
564 FIPS modules versions.
565 [Steve Henson]
566
567 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
568 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
569 until after the certificate request message is received.
570 [Steve Henson]
571
572 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
573 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
574 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
575 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
576 [Steve Henson]
577
578 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
579 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
580 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
581 support yet and no support for client certificates.
582 [Steve Henson]
583
584 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
585 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
586 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
587 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
588 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
589 and version checking.
590 [Steve Henson]
591
592 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
593 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
594 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
595 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
596 [Steve Henson]
597
598 *) Add SRP support.
599 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
600
601 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
602 [Steve Henson]
603
604 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
605 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
606 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
607
608 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
609 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
610 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
611 [Steve Henson]
612
613 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
614 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
615
616 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
617 a few changes are required:
618
619 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
620 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
621 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
622 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
623 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
624 [Steve Henson]
625
626 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
627
628 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
629 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
630 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
631 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
632 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
633 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
634 an MMA defence is not necessary.
635 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
636 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
637 [Steve Henson]
638
639 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
640 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
641 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
642 [Steve Henson]
643
644 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
645
646 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
647 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
648 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
649 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
650 [Antonio Martin]
651
652 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
653
654 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
655 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
656 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
657 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
658 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
659 paper describing this attack can be found at:
660 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
661 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
662 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
663 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
664 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
665 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
666 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
667
668 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
669 (CVE-2011-4576)
670 [Adam Langley (Google)]
671
672 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
673 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
674 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
675 [Adam Langley (Google)]
676
677 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
678 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
679
680 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
681 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
682 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
683 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
684
685 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
686 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
687
688 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
689 [Adam Langley (Google)]
690
691 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
692 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
693
694 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
695 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
696 [Adam Langley (Google)]
697
698 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
699 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
700 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
701
702 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
703 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
704 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
705 the last update always remained unused).
706 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
707
708 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
709 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
710
711 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
712
713 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
714 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
715 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
716
717 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
718 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
719 [Adam Langley (Google)]
720
721 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
722 [Bodo Moeller]
723
724 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
725 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
726 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
727 [Steve Henson]
728
729 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
730 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
731
732 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
733
734 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
735
736 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
737
738 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
739 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
740
741 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
742 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
743 ambiguous.
744 [Steve Henson]
745
746 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
747
748 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
749 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
750 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
751 [Steve Henson]
752
753 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
754 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
755 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
756 [Ben Laurie]
757
758 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
759
760 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
761 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
762 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
763 [Steve Henson]
764
765 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
766 a DLL.
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
770
771 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
772 (CVE-2010-1633)
773 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
774
775 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
776
777 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
778 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
779 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
780 [Steve Henson]
781
782 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
783 [Steve Henson]
784
785 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
786 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
787 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
788
789 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
790 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
791 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
792 [Steve Henson]
793
794 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
795 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
796 [Steve Henson]
797
798 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
799 some responders need this.
800 [Steve Henson]
801
802 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
803 correctly.
804 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
805
806 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
807 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
808 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
809 [Steve Henson]
810
811 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
812 [Steve Henson]
813
814 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
815 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
816 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
817 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
818 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
819 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
820 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
821 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
822 [Steve Henson]
823
824 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
825 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
826 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
827 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
828
829 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
830 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
831
832 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
833 be used on C++.
834 [Steve Henson]
835
836 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
837 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
838 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
839 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
840 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
841 attempting to work them out.
842 [Steve Henson]
843
844 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
845 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
846 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
847 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
848 [Steve Henson]
849
850 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
851 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
852 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
853 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
854 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
855 [Steve Henson]
856
857 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
858 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
859 you can do:
860
861 openssl sha256 foo
862
863 as well as:
864
865 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
866
867 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
868
869 [Steve Henson]
870
871 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
872 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
873
874 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
875 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
876
877 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
878 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
879 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
880 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
881 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
882 [Steve Henson]
883
884 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
885 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
886 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
887 [Steve Henson]
888
889 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
890 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
891 [Steve Henson]
892
893 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
894 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
895
896 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
897 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
901 [Ben Laurie]
902
903 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
904 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
905 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
906 CONF_VALUE.
907 [Ben Laurie]
908
909 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
910 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
911 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
912 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
913 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
914 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
915 [Steve Henson]
916
917 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
918 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
919
920 This work was sponsored by Google.
921 [Steve Henson]
922
923 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
924 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
925 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
926 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
927 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
928 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
929 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
930 default.
931
932 This work was sponsored by Google.
933 [Steve Henson]
934
935 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
936
937 This work was sponsored by Google.
938 [Steve Henson]
939
940 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
941 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
942 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
943 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
944
945 This work was sponsored by Google.
946 [Steve Henson]
947
948 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
949 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
950 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
951 CRL functionality in future.
952
953 This work was sponsored by Google.
954 [Steve Henson]
955
956 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
957
958 This work was sponsored by Google.
959 [Steve Henson]
960
961 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
962 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
963
964 This work was sponsored by Google.
965 [Steve Henson]
966
967 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
968 and URI types are currently supported.
969
970 This work was sponsored by Google.
971 [Steve Henson]
972
973 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
974 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
975 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
976 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
977 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
978 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
979 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
980 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
981
982 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
983 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
984 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
985
986 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
987 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
988 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
989 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
990
991 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
992 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
993 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
994 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
995 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
996 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
997 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
998 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
999 of &errno.)
1000 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1001
1002 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1003 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1004 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1005
1006 This work was sponsored by Google.
1007 [Steve Henson]
1008
1009 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1010 [Ben Laurie]
1011
1012 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1013 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1014 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1015 [Ben Laurie]
1016
1017 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1018 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1019 [Nick Mathewson]
1020
1021 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1022 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1023 [Ben Laurie]
1024
1025 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1026 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1027 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1028 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1029 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1030 content types and variants.
1031 [Steve Henson]
1032
1033 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1034 [Steve Henson]
1035
1036 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1037 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1038 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1039 files from the associated perl scripts.
1040 [Steve Henson]
1041
1042 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1043 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1044 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1045
1046 *) s390x assembler pack.
1047 [Andy Polyakov]
1048
1049 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1050 "family."
1051 [Andy Polyakov]
1052
1053 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1054 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1055 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1056 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1057 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1058 to use. For example, specify an option
1059
1060 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1061
1062 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1063 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1064 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1065 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1066 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1067 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1068
1069 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1070 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1071 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1072 return non-zero for success.
1073
1074 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1075 by using
1076
1077 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1078 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1079
1080 where
1081
1082 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1083 void *arg;
1084
1085 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1086 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1087 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1088 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1089 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1090 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1091 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1092 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1093 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1094
1095 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1096 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1097 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1098 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1099 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1100 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1101
1102 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1103 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1104 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1105 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1106 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1107 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1108
1109 [Bodo Moeller]
1110
1111 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1112 MAC.
1113
1114 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1115
1116 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1117 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1118 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1119 supported.
1120
1121 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1122 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1123 SSL_SESSION.
1124
1125 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1126 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1127 with no application modification.
1128
1129 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1130 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1131
1132 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1133 or server extensions to be examined.
1134
1135 This work was sponsored by Google.
1136 [Steve Henson]
1137
1138 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1139 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1140 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1141
1142 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1143 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1144 ciphersuite support.
1145 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1146
1147 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1148 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1149 to output in BER and PEM format.
1150 [Steve Henson]
1151
1152 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1153 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1154 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1155 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1156 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1157 [Steve Henson]
1158
1159 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1160 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1161 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1162 utility.
1163 [Steve Henson]
1164
1165 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1166 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1167 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1168 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1169 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1170 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1171 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1172 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1173 enabled again.
1174
1175 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1176 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1177 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1178 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1179
1180 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1181 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1182 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1183 the default order.
1184 [Bodo Moeller]
1185
1186 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1187 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1188 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1189 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1190 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1191 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1192 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1193 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1194 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1195
1196 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1197 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1198 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1199 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1200 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1201 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1202 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1203 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1204 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1205 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1206 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1207 kinds of kludges.
1208
1209 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1210 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1211 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1212
1213 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1214 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1215 "CAMELLIA256".
1216 [Bodo Moeller]
1217
1218 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1219 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1220 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1221 [Nils Larsch]
1222
1223 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1224 it yet and it is largely untested.
1225 [Steve Henson]
1226
1227 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1228 [Nils Larsch]
1229
1230 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1231 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1232 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1233 [Steve Henson]
1234
1235 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1236 [Andy Polyakov]
1237
1238 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1239 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1240 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1241 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1242 [Steve Henson]
1243
1244 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1245 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1246 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1247 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1248 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1249 [Steve Henson]
1250
1251 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1252 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1253 [Cryptocom]
1254
1255 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1256 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1257 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1258 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1259 [Steve Henson]
1260
1261 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1262 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1263 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1264 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1265 [Steve Henson]
1266
1267 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1268 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1269 [Steve Henson]
1270
1271 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1272 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1273 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1274 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1275 [Steve Henson]
1276
1277 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1278 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1279 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1280 [Steve Henson]
1281
1282 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1283 utility.
1284 [Steve Henson]
1285
1286 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1287 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1288 [Steve Henson]
1289
1290 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1291 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1292 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1293 if necessary.
1294 [Steve Henson]
1295
1296 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1297 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1298 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1299 [Steve Henson]
1300
1301 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1302 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1303 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1304 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1305 [Steve Henson]
1306
1307 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1308 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1309 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1310 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1311 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1312 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1313 [Douglas Stebila]
1314
1315 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1316 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1317 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1318 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1319 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1320
1321 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1322 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1323 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1324 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1325 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1326 protocol).
1327
1328 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1329 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1330 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1331 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1332
1333 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1334 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1335 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1336 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1337 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1338
1339 aECDH - ECDH cert
1340 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1341 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1342
1343 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1344 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1345
1346 [Bodo Moeller]
1347
1348 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1349 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1350 [Steve Henson]
1351
1352 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1353 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1354 [Steve Henson]
1355
1356 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1357 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1358 functional reference processing.
1359 [Steve Henson]
1360
1361 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1362 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1363 process.
1364 [Steve Henson]
1365
1366 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1367 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1368 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1369 [Steve Henson]
1370
1371 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1372 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1373 application to support multiple signers.
1374 [Steve Henson]
1375
1376 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1377 digest MAC.
1378 [Steve Henson]
1379
1380 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1381 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1382 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1383 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1384 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1385 [Steve Henson]
1386
1387 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1388 new API.
1389 [Steve Henson]
1390
1391 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1392 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1393 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1394 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1395 a no op.
1396 [Steve Henson]
1397
1398 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1399 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1400 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1401 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1402 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1403 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1404 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1405 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1406 [Steve Henson]
1407
1408 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1409 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1410 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1411 between digests and public key types.
1412 [Steve Henson]
1413
1414 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1415 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1416 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1417 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1418 [Steve Henson]
1419
1420 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1421 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1422 key ASN1 method.
1423 [Steve Henson]
1424
1425 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1429 pkeyutl.
1430 [Steve Henson]
1431
1432 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1433 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1434 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1435 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1436 pkey, genpkey.
1437 [Steve Henson]
1438
1439 *) BeOS support.
1440 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1441
1442 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1443 manual pages.
1444 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1445
1446 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1447 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1448 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1449 functionality for RSA.
1450 [Steve Henson]
1451
1452 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1453 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1454 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1455 [Steve Henson]
1456
1457 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1458 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1459 [Steve Henson]
1460
1461 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1462 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1463 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1464 [Steve Henson]
1465
1466 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1467 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1468 [Douglas Stebila]
1469
1470 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1471 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1472 [Steve Henson]
1473
1474 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1475 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1476 type.
1477 [Steve Henson]
1478
1479 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1480 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1481 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1482 structure.
1483 [Steve Henson]
1484
1485 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1486 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1487 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1488 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1489 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1490 of public and private key structures.
1491 [Steve Henson]
1492
1493 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1494 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1495 [Douglas Stebila]
1496
1497 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1498 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1499 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1500
1501 New ciphersuites:
1502 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1503 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1504
1505 New functions:
1506 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1507 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1508 SSL_get_psk_identity
1509 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1510
1511 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1512
1513 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1514 and response verification functionality.
1515 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1516
1517 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1518 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1519 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1520 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1521 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1522 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1523 server_name extension.
1524
1525 New functions (subject to change):
1526
1527 SSL_get_servername()
1528 SSL_get_servername_type()
1529 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1530
1531 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1532
1533 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1534 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1535 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1536 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1537 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1538
1539 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1540
1541 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1542 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1543 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1544 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1545 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1546 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1547 option.
1548
1549 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1550
1551 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1552 [Andy Polyakov]
1553
1554 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1555 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1556 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1557 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1558 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1559 [Andy Polyakov]
1560
1561 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1562 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1563 macro.
1564 [Bodo Moeller]
1565
1566 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1567 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1568 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1569 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1570 [Andy Polyakov]
1571
1572 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1573 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1574 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1575 using the maximum available value.
1576 [Steve Henson]
1577
1578 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1579 in addition to the text details.
1580 [Bodo Moeller]
1581
1582 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1583 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1584 handle several customised structures at all.
1585 [Steve Henson]
1586
1587 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1588 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1589 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1590 [Steve Henson]
1591
1592 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
1595 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1596 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1597 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1598 [Steve Henson]
1599
1600 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1601 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1602 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1603 [Nils Larsch]
1604
1605 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1606 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1607 all fields.
1608 [Steve Henson]
1609
1610 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1611 [Steve Henson]
1612
1613 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1614 [NTT]
1615
1616 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
1617
1618 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1619 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1620 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1621 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1622 [Antonio Martin]
1623
1624 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
1625
1626 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1627 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1628 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1629 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1630 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1631 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1632 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1633 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1634 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1635 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1636 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1637 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1638 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1639
1640 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
1641 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
1642
1643 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1644 (CVE-2011-4576)
1645 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1646
1647 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1648 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1649 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1650 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1651
1652 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1653 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1654 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1655 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1656
1657 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1658 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1659
1660 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1661 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1662
1663 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1664 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1665 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1666
1667 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1668 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1669 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1670
1671 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1672 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1673 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1674 the last update always remained unused).
1675 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1676
1677 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1678 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
1679 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1680
1681 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1682 [Bodo Moeller]
1683
1684 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1685 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1686
1687 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1688
1689 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1690
1691 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
1692
1693 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1694 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1695
1696 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1697 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1698 ambiguous.
1699 [Steve Henson]
1700
1701 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
1702
1703 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1704 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1705 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1706 [Steve Henson]
1707
1708 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1709 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1710 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1711 [Ben Laurie]
1712
1713 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
1714
1715 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1716 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1717 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1718 [Steve Henson]
1719
1720 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
1721 [Steve Henson]
1722
1723 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
1724 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
1725 some broken encodings work correctly.
1726 [Steve Henson]
1727
1728 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
1729 is also one of the inputs.
1730 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
1731
1732 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
1733 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
1734 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
1735 etc are non-op.
1736 [Steve Henson]
1737
1738 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
1739
1740 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
1741 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
1742
1743 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
1744 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
1745 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
1746
1747 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
1748 common in certificates and some applications which only call
1749 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
1750 [Steve Henson]
1751
1752 *) VMS fixes:
1753 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
1754 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
1755 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
1756 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
1757
1758 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
1759
1760 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
1761 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
1762 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
1763 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
1764 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
1765 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
1766 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
1767 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
1768
1769 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
1770 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
1771 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
1772
1773 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
1774
1775 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
1776 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
1777
1778 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
1779 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
1780 [Bodo Moeller]
1781
1782 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
1783 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
1784 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
1785 [Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
1788 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
1789 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
1790 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
1791 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
1792 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
1793 [Steve Henson]
1794
1795 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
1796 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
1797 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
1798 [Steve Henson]
1799
1800 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
1801 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
1802 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
1803 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
1804 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
1805 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
1806 CVE-2009-4355.
1807 [Steve Henson]
1808
1809 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
1810 change when encrypting or decrypting.
1811 [Bodo Moeller]
1812
1813 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
1814 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
1815 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
1816 [Steve Henson]
1817
1818 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
1819 [Steve Henson]
1820
1821 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
1822 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
1823 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
1824 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
1825 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
1826 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
1827 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
1828 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
1829 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
1830 [Steve Henson]
1831
1832 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
1833 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
1834 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
1835 [Steve Henson]
1836
1837 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
1838 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
1839 [Steve Henson]
1840
1841 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
1842 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
1843 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
1844 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
1845 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
1846 know what you are doing.
1847 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
1848
1849 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
1850 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
1851 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
1852 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
1853 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
1854 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
1855 the handshake.
1856 [Steve Henson]
1857
1858 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
1859 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
1860 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
1861 correctly.
1862 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1863
1864 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
1865 warnings in other configurations.
1866 [Steve Henson]
1867
1868 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
1869 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
1870 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
1871 systems need.
1872 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
1873
1874 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
1875 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
1876 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
1877
1878 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
1879 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
1880 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
1881 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
1882 [Steve Henson]
1883
1884 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
1885 and restored.
1886 [Steve Henson]
1887
1888 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
1889 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
1890 clash.
1891 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1892
1893 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
1894 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
1895 other than a simple chain.
1896 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
1897
1898 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
1899 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
1900 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
1901 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
1902 [Steve Henson]
1903
1904 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
1905 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
1906 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
1907 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
1908 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
1909 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
1910 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
1911 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
1912 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
1913
1914 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
1915 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
1916 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
1917 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
1918 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
1919 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
1920 (CVE-2009-1377)
1921 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
1922
1923 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
1924 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
1925 [Daniel Mentz]
1926
1927 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
1928 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
1929
1930 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
1931 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
1932
1933 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
1934
1935 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
1936 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
1937 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
1938 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
1939 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
1940 you're doing.
1941 [Ben Laurie]
1942
1943 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
1944
1945 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
1946 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
1947 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
1948 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
1949
1950 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
1951 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
1952 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
1953 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
1954
1955 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
1956 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
1957 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
1958 [Steve Henson]
1959
1960 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
1961 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
1962 level.
1963 [Steve Henson]
1964
1965 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
1966 to handle some structures.
1967 [Steve Henson]
1968
1969 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
1970 for a '\n'
1971 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
1972
1973 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
1974 [Matthieu Herrb]
1975
1976 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
1977 [Steve Henson]
1978
1979 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
1980 [Steve Henson]
1981
1982 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
1983 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
1984 chosen compiler.
1985 [Ben Laurie]
1986
1987 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
1988
1989 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
1990 (CVE-2008-5077).
1991 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
1992
1993 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
1994 [Ben Laurie]
1995
1996 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
1997 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
1998 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
1999 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2000
2001 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2002 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2003
2004 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2005 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2006 [Bodo Moeller]
2007
2008 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2009 s_client and s_server.
2010 [Ben Laurie]
2011
2012 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2013 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2014
2015 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2016 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2017
2018 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2019 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2020 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2021 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2022 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2023 [Bodo Moeller]
2024
2025 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2026
2027 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2028 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2029 [PR #1679]
2030
2031 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2032 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2033 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2034
2035 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2036 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2037 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2038 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2039
2040 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2041 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2042
2043 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2044
2045 *) Various precautionary measures:
2046
2047 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2048
2049 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2050 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2051 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2052
2053 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2054 outside the expected range.
2055
2056 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2057 builds.
2058
2059 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2060
2061 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2062 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2063 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2064
2065 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2066 [Steve Henson]
2067
2068 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2069 [Huang Ying]
2070
2071 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2072
2073 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2074 [Steve Henson]
2075
2076 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2077 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2078 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2079
2080 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2081 [Steve Henson]
2082
2083 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2084 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2085 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2086 files.
2087 [Steve Henson]
2088
2089 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2090
2091 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2092 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2093 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2094 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2095
2096 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2097 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2098 [Joe Orton]
2099
2100 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2101
2102 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2103 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2104 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2105
2106 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2107
2108 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2109 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2110 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2111 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2112 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2113
2114 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2115 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2116 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2117 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2118 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2119 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2120 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2121
2122 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2123
2124 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2125 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2126 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2127 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2128 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2129
2130 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2131 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2132
2133 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2134 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2135 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2136 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2137 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2138
2139 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2140
2141 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2142 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2143 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2144 sets may exist with different names.
2145 [Steve Henson]
2146
2147 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2148 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2149 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2150 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2151 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2152 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2153 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2154 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2155 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2156 implementation.
2157 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2158
2159 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2160 implemention in the following ways:
2161
2162 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2163 hard coded.
2164
2165 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2166 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2167 ignored for embedded content.
2168
2169 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2170 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2171 [Steve Henson]
2172
2173 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2174 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2175 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2176 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2177
2178 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2179 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2180 [Steve Henson]
2181
2182 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2183 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2184 [Steve Henson]
2185
2186 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2187 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2188 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2189 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2190 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2191 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2192 data.
2193 [Steve Henson]
2194
2195 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2196 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2197 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2198
2199 *) Netware support:
2200
2201 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2202 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2203 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2204 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2205 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2206 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2207 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2208 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2209 platform
2210 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2211 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2212 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2213 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2214 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2215 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2216 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2217
2218 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2219 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2220 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2221 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2222 to s_client and s_server.
2223 [Steve Henson]
2224
2225 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2226
2227 *) Fix various bugs:
2228 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2229 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2230 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2231 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2232 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2233
2234 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2235
2236 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2237 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2238 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2239 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2240 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2241 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2242 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2243 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2244 [Andy Polyakov]
2245
2246 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2247 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2248 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2249 Steve Henson]
2250
2251 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2252 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2253 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2254 supported.
2255
2256 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2257 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2258 SSL_SESSION.
2259
2260 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2261 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2262 with no application modification.
2263
2264 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2265 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2266
2267 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2268 or server extensions to be examined.
2269
2270 This work was sponsored by Google.
2271 [Steve Henson]
2272
2273 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2274 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2275 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2276 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2277 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2278 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2279 server_name extension.
2280
2281 New functions (subject to change):
2282
2283 SSL_get_servername()
2284 SSL_get_servername_type()
2285 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2286
2287 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2288
2289 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2290 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2291 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2292 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2293 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2294
2295 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2296
2297 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2298 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2299 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2300 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2301 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2302 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2303 option.
2304
2305 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2306
2307 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2308 [Steve Henson]
2309
2310 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2311 [Andy Polyakov]
2312
2313 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2314 (which previously caused an internal error).
2315 [Bodo Moeller]
2316
2317 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2318 [Ben Laurie]
2319
2320 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2321 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2322
2323 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2324 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2325 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2326
2327 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2328 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2329 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2330 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2331
2332 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2333 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2334 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2335 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2336
2337 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2338 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2339 information. For detailed background information, see
2340 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2341 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2342 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2343 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2344 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2345 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2346 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2347 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2348 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2349 remove a conditional branch.
2350
2351 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2352 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2353 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2354 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2355 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2356 remains as a deprecated alias.
2357
2358 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2359 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2360 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2361 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2362
2363 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2364 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2365 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2366 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2367 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2368 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2369 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2370 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2371
2372 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2373
2374 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2375 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2376 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2377 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2378 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2379 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2380 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2381 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2382 in a different context.
2383 [Bodo Moeller]
2384
2385 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2386 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2387 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2388 [Bodo Moeller]
2389
2390 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2391 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2392 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2393
2394 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2395
2396 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2397 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2398 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2399 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2400 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2401 [Victor Duchovni]
2402
2403 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2404 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2405 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2406 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2407 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2408 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2409 [Bodo Moeller]
2410
2411 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2412 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2413 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2414 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2415 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2416 [Bodo Moeller]
2417
2418 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2419 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2420
2421 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2422 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2423 Improve header file function name parsing.
2424 [Steve Henson]
2425
2426 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2427 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2428 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2429
2430 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2431
2432 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2433 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2434 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2435
2436 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2437 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2438
2439 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2440 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2441
2442 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2443 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2444 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2445
2446 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2447 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2448 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2449 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2450 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2451 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2452 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2453 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2454 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2455
2456 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2457 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2458 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2459 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2460 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2461
2462 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2463 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2464 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2465 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2466 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2467 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2468 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2469 multiple values to extend the available space.
2470
2471 [Bodo Moeller]
2472
2473 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2474
2475 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2476 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2477
2478 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2479 [Ben Laurie]
2480
2481 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2482 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2483 undesirable limitations.
2484 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2485
2486 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2487 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2488 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2489 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2490 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2491 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2492 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2493 [Bodo Moeller]
2494
2495 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2496
2497 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2498 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2499 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2500
2501 The latter two were purportedly from
2502 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2503 appear there.
2504
2505 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2506 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2507 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2508 [Bodo Moeller]
2509
2510 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2511 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2512 [Bodo Moeller]
2513
2514 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2515 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2516 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2517 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2518
2519 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2520 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2521 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2522 [NTT]
2523
2524 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2525 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2526 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2527 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2528 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2529 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2530 [Steve Henson]
2531
2532 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2533
2534 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2535 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2536 [Steve Henson]
2537
2538 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2539 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2540
2541 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2542 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2543 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2544 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2545 [Douglas Stebila]
2546
2547 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2548 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2549 [Steve Henson]
2550
2551 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2552 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2553 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2554 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2555 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2556 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2557 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2558 can't be loaded.
2559 [Steve Henson]
2560
2561 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
2562 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
2563 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
2564 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
2565 [Steve Henson]
2566
2567 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
2568 under VC++ build system.
2569 [Steve Henson]
2570
2571 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
2572 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
2573 [Richard Levitte]
2574
2575 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
2576
2577 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2578 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2579 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2580 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2581 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2582
2583 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2584 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2585 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2586
2587 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
2588 [Steve Henson]
2589
2590 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
2591 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2592 [Nils Larsch]
2593
2594 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
2595 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
2596
2597 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
2598 [Nick Mathewson]
2599
2600 *) Extended Windows CE support.
2601 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
2602
2603 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
2604 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
2605 [Steve Henson]
2606
2607 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
2608 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
2609 smime utility.
2610 [Steve Henson]
2611
2612 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
2613
2614 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2615 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2616
2617 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
2618 [Richard Levitte]
2619
2620 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
2621 key into the same file any more.
2622 [Richard Levitte]
2623
2624 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
2625 [Andy Polyakov]
2626
2627 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
2628 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
2629
2630 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
2631 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
2632 [Richard Levitte]
2633
2634 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
2635 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
2636 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
2637 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
2638 this only applies when building 'shared'.
2639 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
2640
2641 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
2642 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
2643 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
2644 [Steve Henson]
2645
2646 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
2647 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
2648 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
2649 - add new function for parameter creation
2650 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
2651 BN_BLINDING parameters
2652 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
2653 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
2654 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
2655 threads.
2656 [Nils Larsch]
2657
2658 *) Add support for DTLS.
2659 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
2660
2661 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
2662 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
2663 [Walter Goulet]
2664
2665 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
2666 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
2667 [Nils Larsch]
2668
2669 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
2670 the apps/openssl applications.
2671 [Nils Larsch]
2672
2673 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
2674 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
2675 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
2676 [Ben Laurie]
2677
2678 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
2679 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
2680
2681 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
2682 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
2683
2684 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
2685 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
2686 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
2687 avoid this algorithm.)
2688
2689 [Bodo Moeller]
2690
2691 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
2692 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
2693 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
2694 [Richard Levitte]
2695
2696 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
2697 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
2698 [Andy Polyakov]
2699
2700 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
2701 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
2702 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
2703 pod file:
2704
2705 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
2706
2707 The blank line is mandatory.
2708
2709 [Steve Henson]
2710
2711 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
2712 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
2713 sources.
2714 [Steve Henson]
2715
2716 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
2717 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
2718
2719 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
2720 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
2721 to support policy checking and print out.
2722 [Steve Henson]
2723
2724 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
2725 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
2726 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
2727 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
2728
2729 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
2730 [Geoff Thorpe]
2731
2732 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
2733 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
2734
2735 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
2736 implementation contributed by IBM.
2737 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
2738
2739 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
2740 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
2741 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
2742 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
2743
2744 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
2745 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
2746
2747 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
2748 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
2749 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
2750 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
2751 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
2752 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
2753 [Steve Henson]
2754
2755 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
2756 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
2757 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
2758 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
2759 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
2760 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
2761 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
2762 [Geoff Thorpe]
2763
2764 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
2765 [Steve Henson]
2766
2767 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
2768 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
2769 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
2770 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
2771 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
2772 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
2773 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
2774 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
2775 [Steve Henson]
2776
2777 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
2778 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
2779 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
2780 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
2781 [Steve Henson]
2782
2783 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
2784 syntax:
2785
2786 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
2787 [Steve Henson]
2788
2789 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
2790 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
2791 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
2792 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
2793 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
2794 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
2795 BN_CTX's "bundling".
2796 [Geoff Thorpe]
2797
2798 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
2799 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
2800 [Geoff Thorpe]
2801
2802 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
2803 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
2804 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
2805 [Steve Henson]
2806
2807 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
2808 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
2809 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
2810 below).
2811 [Geoff Thorpe]
2812
2813 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
2814 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
2815 [Richard Levitte]
2816
2817 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
2818 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
2819 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
2820 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
2821 [Geoff Thorpe]
2822
2823 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
2824 initialised value as BN_new().
2825 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
2826
2827 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
2828 [Steve Henson]
2829
2830 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
2831 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
2832 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
2833 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
2834 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
2835 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
2836 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
2837 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
2838 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
2839 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
2840 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
2841 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
2842 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
2843 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
2844 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
2845
2846 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
2847 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
2848 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
2849 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
2850 [Geoff Thorpe]
2851
2852 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
2853 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
2854 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
2855 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
2856 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
2857 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
2858 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
2859 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
2860 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
2861 [Geoff Thorpe]
2862
2863 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
2864 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
2865 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
2866 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
2867 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
2868 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
2869 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
2870 [Geoff Thorpe]
2871
2872 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
2873 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
2874 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
2875 these have been updated also.
2876 [Geoff Thorpe]
2877
2878 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
2879 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
2880 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
2881 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
2882 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
2883 functions.
2884 [Steve Henson]
2885
2886 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
2887 structure of type "other".
2888 [Steve Henson]
2889
2890 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
2891 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
2892 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
2893 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
2894 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
2895 situation in the script.
2896 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
2897
2898 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2899 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
2900 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
2901 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
2902 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
2903 used as premaster secret.
2904 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2905
2906 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
2907 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
2908 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2909
2910 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
2911 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
2912
2913 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
2914 control of the error stack.
2915 [Richard Levitte]
2916
2917 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
2918 [Richard Levitte]
2919
2920 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
2921 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
2922 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
2923 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
2924 [Richard Levitte]
2925
2926 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
2927 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
2928 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
2929 [Richard Levitte]
2930
2931 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
2932 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
2933 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
2934 a memory area.
2935 [Richard Levitte]
2936
2937 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
2938 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
2939 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
2940 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
2941 [Richard Levitte]
2942
2943 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
2944 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
2945 the following flags are defined:
2946
2947 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
2948 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
2949 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
2950 number.
2951
2952 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
2953 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
2954 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
2955 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
2956 returns zero.
2957 [Richard Levitte]
2958
2959 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
2960 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
2961 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
2962 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
2963 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
2964 [Richard Levitte]
2965
2966 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
2967 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
2968 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
2969 [Richard Levitte]
2970
2971 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2972 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2973 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2974 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2975 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2976 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2977 [Richard Levitte]
2978
2979 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
2980 req and dirName.
2981 [Steve Henson]
2982
2983 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
2984 [Steve Henson]
2985
2986 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
2987 [Steve Henson]
2988
2989 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
2990 [Steve Henson]
2991
2992 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
2993 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
2994 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
2995 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
2996 default implementation more easily.
2997 [Geoff Thorpe]
2998
2999 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3000 in config files.
3001 [Steve Henson]
3002
3003 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3004 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3005 [Richard Levitte]
3006
3007 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3008 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3009 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3010 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3011
3012 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3013 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3014 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3015 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3016 [Steve Henson]
3017
3018 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3019 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3020 to do it.
3021 [Richard Levitte]
3022
3023 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3024 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3025 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3026 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3027 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3028 scalar * generator).
3029 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3030
3031 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3032 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3033 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3034 correctly.
3035 [Steve Henson]
3036
3037 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3038 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3039 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3040 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3041 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3042 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3043 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3044 linker additions, eg;
3045 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3046 [Geoff Thorpe]
3047
3048 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3049 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3050 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3051 [Geoff Thorpe]
3052
3053 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3054 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3055 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3056 via PR#459)
3057 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3058
3059 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3060 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3061 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3062 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3063 [Geoff Thorpe]
3064
3065 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3066 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3067 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3068 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3069 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3070 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3071 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3072 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3073 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3074 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3075
3076 Example for using the new callback interface:
3077
3078 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3079 void *my_arg = ...;
3080 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3081
3082 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3083
3084 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3085 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3086 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3087 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3088 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3089 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3090 */
3091
3092 [Geoff Thorpe]
3093
3094 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3095 available to TLS with the number defined in
3096 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3097 [Richard Levitte]
3098
3099 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3100 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3101
3102 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3103 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3104 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3105 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3106
3107 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3108 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3109
3110 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3111 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3112 well.
3113 [Richard Levitte]
3114
3115 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3116 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3117 [Richard Levitte]
3118
3119 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3120 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3121 and a macro that behave like
3122 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3123
3124 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3125 [Nils Larsch]
3126
3127 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3128 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3129 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3130 if applicable.
3131 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3132
3133 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3134 [Bodo Moeller]
3135
3136 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3137 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3138 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3139 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3140 directory engines/.
3141 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3142 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3143 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3144 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3145 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3146 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3147 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3148 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3149
3150 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3151 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3152 [Richard Levitte]
3153
3154 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3155 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3156
3157 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3158 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3159 files while avoiding the low level API.
3160
3161 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3162 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3163 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3164 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3165
3166 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3167 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3168 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3169 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3170 instead of the low level API.
3171 [Steve Henson]
3172
3173 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3174 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3175 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3176 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3177 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3178 PKCS#7 code.
3179
3180 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3181 down to the template encoder.
3182 [Steve Henson]
3183
3184 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3185 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3186 [Bodo Moeller]
3187
3188 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3189 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3190 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3191 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3192
3193 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3194 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3195
3196 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3197 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3198
3199 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3200 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3201 [Bodo Moeller]
3202
3203 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3204 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3205 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3206 [Bodo Moeller]
3207
3208 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3209 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3210
3211 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3212 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3213
3214 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3215 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3216 New EC_METHOD:
3217
3218 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3219
3220 New API functions:
3221
3222 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3223 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3224 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3225 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3226 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3227 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3228
3229 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3230 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3231 enable it).
3232
3233 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3234 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3235 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3236 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3237 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3238 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3239 various internal method names.)
3240
3241 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3242 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3243
3244 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3245 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3246
3247 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3248 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3249
3250 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3251 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3252 methods are undefined.
3253
3254 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3255 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3256
3257 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3258 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3259 length of the modulus.
3260
3261 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3262 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3263
3264 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3265 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3266
3267 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3268 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3269
3270 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3271 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3272 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3273
3274 BN_GF2m_add
3275 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3276 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3277 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3278 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3279 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3280 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3281 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3282 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3283 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3284
3285 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3286 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3287
3288 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3289 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3290 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3291 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3292 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3293 where
3294 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3295 This applies to the following functions:
3296
3297 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3298 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3299 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3300 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3301 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3302 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3303 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3304 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3305 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3306 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3307
3308 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3309
3310 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3311 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3312
3313 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3314
3315 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3316 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3317 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3318 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3319 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3320
3321 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3322 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3323
3324 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3325 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3326 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3327
3328 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3329 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3330
3331 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3332 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3333 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3334 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3335 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3336
3337 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3338 functions
3339 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3340 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3341 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3342 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3343 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3344 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3345 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3346 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3347 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3348 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3349 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3350 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3351
3352 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3353 functions
3354 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3355 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3356 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3357 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3358 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3359
3360 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3361 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3362 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3363 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3364
3365 *) Add functions
3366 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3367 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3368 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3369 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3370 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3371 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3372 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3373
3374 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3375 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3376 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3377 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3378 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3379 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3380 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3381 adding different types of curves.
3382 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3383
3384 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3385 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3386 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3387 [Bodo Moeller]
3388
3389 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3390 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3391
3392 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3393 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3394 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3395 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3396
3397 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3398
3399 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3400 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3401
3402 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3403 library. Most notably,
3404 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3405 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3406 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3407 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3408 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3409 extracted before the specific public key;
3410 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3411 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3412
3413 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3414 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3415 function
3416 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3417 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3418 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3419 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3420 accessed via
3421 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3422 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3423 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3424
3425 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3426 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3427 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3428 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3429 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3430 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3431 differing sizes.
3432 [Richard Levitte]
3433
3434 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3435
3436 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3437 sensitive data.
3438 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3439
3440 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3441 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3442 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3443 [Bodo Moeller]
3444
3445 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3446 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3447 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3448 [Victor Duchovni]
3449
3450 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3451 [Steve Henson]
3452
3453 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3454 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3455 [Steve Henson]
3456
3457 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3458 run algorithm test programs.
3459 [Steve Henson]
3460
3461 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3462 [Steve Henson]
3463
3464 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3465 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3466 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3467 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3468 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3469 [Bodo Moeller]
3470
3471 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3472 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3473 [Steve Henson]
3474
3475 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3476
3477 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3478 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3479 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3480
3481 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3482 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3483
3484 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3485 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3486
3487 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3488 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3489 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3490
3491 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3492 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3493 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3494 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3495 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3496 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3497 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3498 [Bodo Moeller]
3499
3500 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3501
3502 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3503 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3504
3505 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3506 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3507 undesirable limitations.
3508 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3509
3510 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3511
3512 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3513 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3514 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3515
3516 The latter two were purportedly from
3517 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3518 appear there.
3519
3520 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3521 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3522 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3523 [Bodo Moeller]
3524
3525 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3526 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3527 [Bodo Moeller]
3528
3529 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3530
3531 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3532 module in FIPS mode.
3533 [Steve Henson]
3534
3535 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3536 [Steve Henson]
3537
3538 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3539 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3540 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3541 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3542 [Steve Henson]
3543
3544 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3545
3546 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3547 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3548 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3549 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3550 the difference induced by this change.
3551 [Andy Polyakov]
3552
3553 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3554
3555 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3556 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3557 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3558 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3559 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3560
3561 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3562 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3563 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3564
3565 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
3566 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
3567 [Steve Henson]
3568
3569 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
3570 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
3571 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
3572 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
3573 biased k.)
3574 [Bodo Moeller]
3575
3576 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
3577 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
3578 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
3579 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
3580 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
3581
3582 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
3583 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
3584 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
3585 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
3586 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
3587 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
3588
3589 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
3590
3591 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
3592 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
3593 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
3594 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
3595 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
3596 [Bodo Moeller]
3597
3598 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
3599 clients need.
3600 [Steve Henson]
3601
3602 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
3603 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
3604 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
3605 [Steve Henson]
3606
3607 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
3608 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
3609 structures constant.
3610 [Steve Henson]
3611
3612 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
3613
3614 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3615 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3616
3617 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
3618 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
3619 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
3620 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
3621 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
3622 some needed definitions.
3623 [Steve Henson]
3624
3625 *) Undo Cygwin change.
3626 [Ulf Möller]
3627
3628 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
3629 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
3630 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
3631 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
3632 [Richard Levitte]
3633
3634 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
3635
3636 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
3637 server and client random values. Previously
3638 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
3639 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
3640
3641 This change has negligible security impact because:
3642
3643 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
3644 data.
3645
3646 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
3647 handshake.
3648
3649 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
3650 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
3651 values.
3652
3653 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
3654 to our attention.
3655
3656 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
3657
3658 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
3659 [Ulf Möller]
3660
3661 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
3662 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
3663 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
3664
3665 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
3666 [Steve Henson]
3667
3668 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
3669 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
3670 [Andy Polyakov]
3671
3672 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
3673 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
3674 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
3675
3676 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
3677 [Steve Henson]
3678
3679 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
3680 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
3681 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
3682 certificates.
3683 [Steve Henson]
3684
3685 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
3686 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
3687 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
3688 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
3689
3690 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
3691 has chosen to ignore this fault)
3692 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
3693 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
3694 been given)
3695 [Richard Levitte]
3696
3697 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
3698
3699 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
3700 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
3701 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
3702 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
3703 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
3704 [Steve Henson]
3705
3706 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
3707 [Steve Henson]
3708
3709 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
3710 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
3711
3712 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
3713 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
3714 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
3715 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
3716 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
3717 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
3718 rather than being initialized to 1.
3719 [Steve Henson]
3720
3721 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
3722
3723 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
3724 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
3725 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3726
3727 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
3728 (CVE-2004-0112)
3729 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
3730
3731 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3732 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3733 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3734 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3735 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3736 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3737 [Richard Levitte]
3738
3739 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
3740 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
3741 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
3742 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
3743 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
3744 for these cases.
3745 [Steve Henson]
3746
3747 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
3748 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
3749 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
3750 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
3751 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
3752 [Steve Henson]
3753
3754 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
3755 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
3756 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
3757 < 0.9.7.
3758 [Steve Henson]
3759
3760 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
3761 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3762
3763 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
3764 [Steve Henson]
3765
3766 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
3767
3768 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
3769
3770 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
3771 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
3772
3773 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
3774
3775 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
3776 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
3777
3778 [Steve Henson]
3779
3780 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
3781 exiting on the first error in a request.
3782 [Steve Henson]
3783
3784 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
3785 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
3786 specifications.
3787 [Steve Henson]
3788
3789 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
3790 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
3791 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
3792 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
3793
3794 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
3795 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
3796 [Richard Levitte]
3797
3798 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
3799 blocks during encryption.
3800 [Richard Levitte]
3801
3802 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
3803 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
3804 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
3805 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
3806 certain size.
3807 [Steve Henson]
3808
3809 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
3810 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
3811 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
3812 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
3813 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
3814 parser.
3815 [Steve Henson]
3816
3817 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
3818
3819 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
3820 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
3821 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
3822 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
3823 [Bodo Moeller]
3824
3825 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
3826 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
3827 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
3828 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
3829 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
3830
3831 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
3832 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
3833 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
3834 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
3835 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
3836 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
3837 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
3838 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
3839 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
3840 [Bodo Moeller]
3841
3842 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
3843 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
3844 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
3845 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
3846 [Geoff Thorpe]
3847
3848 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
3849 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
3850 [Ulf Moeller]
3851
3852 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
3853
3854 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
3855 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
3856 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
3857 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
3858 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
3859
3860 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
3861 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
3862 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
3863
3864 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
3865 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
3866 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
3867 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
3868 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
3869
3870 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
3871 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
3872 used by default when no-err is given.
3873 [Richard Levitte]
3874
3875 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
3876 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
3877
3878 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
3879 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
3880 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
3881 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
3882 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
3883
3884 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
3885 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
3886 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
3887 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
3888
3889 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
3890
3891 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
3892
3893 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
3894
3895 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
3896 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
3897 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
3898 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
3899 root is omitted).
3900 [Steve Henson]
3901
3902 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
3903 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
3904
3905 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
3906 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
3907 [Steve Henson]
3908
3909 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3910 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3911 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
3912 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
3913 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3914
3915 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
3916 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
3917 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
3918 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
3919 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
3920 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
3921 followup to PR #377.
3922 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3923
3924 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
3925 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
3926 [Andy Polyakov]
3927
3928 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
3929 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
3930 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
3931 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
3932
3933 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
3934
3935 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
3936 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
3937
3938 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
3939 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
3940 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
3941 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
3942 client and server.
3943 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
3944 PR #377.
3945 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3946
3947 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
3948 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
3949 removed entirely.
3950 [Richard Levitte]
3951
3952 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
3953 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
3954 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
3955 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
3956 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
3957 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
3958 of libcrypto.
3959 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
3960 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
3961 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
3962 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
3963 have to be made anyway).
3964 [Richard Levitte]
3965
3966 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
3967 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
3968 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
3969 [Steve Henson]
3970
3971 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
3972 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
3973 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
3974 [Richard Levitte]
3975
3976 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
3977 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
3978 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
3979
3980 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
3981 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
3982 edit numbers of the version.
3983 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
3984
3985 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
3986 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
3987 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
3988
3989 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
3990 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3991
3992 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
3993 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
3994 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3995
3996 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
3997 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
3998
3999 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4000 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4001
4002 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4003 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4004
4005 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4006 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4007
4008 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4009 overflows.
4010 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4011
4012 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4013 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4014 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4015
4016 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4017 representations in a platform independent manner.
4018 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4019
4020 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4021 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4022 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4023
4024 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4025 indents.
4026 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4027
4028 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4029 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4030
4031 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4032 full. Fixed.
4033 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4034
4035 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4036 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4037 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4038
4039 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4040 unconditionally).
4041 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4042
4043 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4044 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4045
4046 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4047 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4048
4049 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4050 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4051
4052 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4053 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4054
4055 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4056 CBCParameter.
4057 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4058
4059 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4060 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4061
4062 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4063 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4064
4065 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4066 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4067 exploitable.
4068 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4069
4070 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4071 the 0.9.6 release series:
4072
4073 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4074 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4075 (CVE-2002-0657)
4076 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4077
4078 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4079 [Richard Levitte]
4080
4081 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4082 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4083
4084 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4085 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4086
4087 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4088 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4089 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4090 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4091
4092 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4093 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4094 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4095
4096 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4097 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4098 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4099 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4100
4101 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4102 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4103 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4104 some local tweaks:
4105
4106 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4107 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4108 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4109 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4110 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4111 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4112 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4113 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4114 done
4115
4116 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4117 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4118 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4119 [Richard Levitte]
4120
4121 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4122 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4123 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4124 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4125 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4126
4127 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4128 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4129
4130 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4131 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4132 [Richard Levitte]
4133
4134 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4135 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4136 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4137 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4138 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4139 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4140 [Steve Henson]
4141
4142 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4143 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4144 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4145 [Steve Henson]
4146
4147 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4148 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4149 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4150
4151 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4152 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4153 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4154 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4155 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4156 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4157 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4158 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4159
4160 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4161 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4162 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4163 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4164 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4165 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4166 [Steve Henson]
4167
4168 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4169 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4170 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4171 declaration has been changed from
4172 int (*cb)()
4173 into
4174 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4175 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4176 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4177 has been changed into
4178 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4179
4180 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4181 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4182 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4183
4184 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4185 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4186
4187 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4188 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4189 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4190 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4191 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4192 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4193 always load it have also been added.
4194 [Steve Henson]
4195
4196 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4197 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4198 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4199
4200 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4201
4202 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4203 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4204 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4205
4206 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4207 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4208 command line option can be used to specify an
4209 alternative file.
4210 [Steve Henson]
4211
4212 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4213 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4214 [Steve Henson]
4215
4216 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4217 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4218 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4219 [Steve Henson]
4220
4221 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4222 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4223 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4224 to work with the new engine framework.
4225 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4226
4227 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4228 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4229 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4230 to work with the new engine framework.
4231 [Richard Levitte]
4232
4233 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4234 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4235 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4236
4237 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4238 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4239
4240 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4241 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4242 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4243 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4244 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4245 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4246
4247 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4248 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4249
4250 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4251 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4252
4253 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4254 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4255 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4256 [Ben Laurie]
4257
4258 *) Add new functions
4259 ERR_peek_last_error
4260 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4261 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4262 These are similar to
4263 ERR_peek_error
4264 ERR_peek_error_line
4265 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4266 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4267 still in the error queue.
4268 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4269
4270 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4271 like:
4272 default_algorithms = ALL
4273 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4274 [Steve Henson]
4275
4276 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4277 [Steve Henson]
4278
4279 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4280 [Steve Henson]
4281
4282 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4283 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4284 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4285 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4286
4287 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4288 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4289
4290 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4291 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4292
4293 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4294 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4295 [Bodo Moeller]
4296
4297 *) New functions/macros
4298
4299 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4300 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4301 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4302 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4303
4304 to request calling a callback function
4305
4306 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4307 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4308
4309 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4310 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4311 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4312 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4313 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4314 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4315 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4316 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4317 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4318 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4319
4320 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4321 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4322 [Bodo Moeller]
4323
4324 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4325 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4326 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4327 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4328 the configuration scripts.
4329
4330 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4331 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4332 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4333
4334 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4335 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4336
4337 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4338 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4339 when reusing an existing buffer.
4340 [Bodo Moeller]
4341
4342 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4343 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4344 [Steve Henson]
4345
4346 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4347 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4348 [Ben Laurie]
4349
4350 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4351 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4352 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4353 has the same effect.
4354 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4355
4356 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4357 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4358 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4359 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4360 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4361 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4362 exception.
4363
4364 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4365 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4366 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4367 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4368
4369 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4370 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4371 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4372 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4373
4374 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4375 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4376 won't work.
4377
4378 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4379 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4380 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4381 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4382 default), and then completely removed.
4383 [Richard Levitte]
4384
4385 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4386 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4387 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4388 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4389 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4390 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4391 particular extension is supported.
4392 [Steve Henson]
4393
4394 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4395 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4396 [Steve Henson]
4397
4398 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4399 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4400 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4401 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4402 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4403 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4404 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4405 requires the destination to be valid.
4406
4407 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4408 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4409 [Steve Henson]
4410
4411 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4412 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4413 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4414 [Bodo Moeller]
4415
4416 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4417 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4418
4419 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4420 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4421 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4422 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4423 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4424 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4425 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4426 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4427 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4428 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4429 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4430 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4431 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4432 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4433 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4434 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4435 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4436 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4437 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4438 the new code.
4439 [Geoff Thorpe]
4440
4441 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4442 [Steve Henson]
4443
4444 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4445 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4446 become part of libeay.num as well.
4447 [Richard Levitte]
4448
4449 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4450 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4451 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4452 false once a handshake has been completed.
4453 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4454 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4455 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4456 client has followed the request.)
4457 [Bodo Moeller]
4458
4459 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4460 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4461 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4462 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4463
4464 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4465 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4466 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4467 [Bodo Moeller]
4468
4469 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4470 [Steve Henson]
4471
4472 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4473 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4474 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4475 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4476
4477 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4478 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4479 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4480
4481 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4482 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4483 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4484 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4485 [Geoff Thorpe]
4486
4487 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4488 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4489 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4490 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4491 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4492 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4493 [Geoff Thorpe]
4494
4495 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4496 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4497 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4498 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4499 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4500 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4501 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4502 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4503 [Geoff Thorpe]
4504
4505 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4506 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4507 [Geoff Thorpe]
4508
4509 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4510 [Ben Laurie]
4511
4512 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4513 md_data void pointer.
4514 [Ben Laurie]
4515
4516 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4517 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4518 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4519 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4520 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4521 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4522 [Ben Laurie]
4523
4524 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4525 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4526 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4527 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4528 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4529 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4530 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4531 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4532 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4533 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4534 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4535 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4536 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4537 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4538 rather than letting it slide.
4539
4540 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4541 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4542 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4543 [Geoff Thorpe]
4544
4545 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4546 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4547 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4548 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4549 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4550 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4551 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4552 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4553 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4554 [Geoff Thorpe]
4555
4556 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4557 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4558 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4559 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4560 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
4561
4562 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
4563 [Geoff Thorpe]
4564
4565 *) Add EVP test program.
4566 [Ben Laurie]
4567
4568 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
4569 [Ben Laurie]
4570
4571 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
4572 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
4573 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
4574 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
4575 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
4576 [Steve Henson]
4577
4578 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
4579 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
4580 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
4581 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
4582 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
4583 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
4584 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
4585
4586 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
4587 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
4588 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
4589 Usage example:
4590
4591 EVP_MD_CTX md;
4592
4593 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
4594 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
4595 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
4596 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
4597 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
4598
4599 [Ben Laurie]
4600
4601 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
4602 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
4603 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
4604 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
4605 anyway): E.g.,
4606
4607 des_key_schedule ks;
4608
4609 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
4610 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
4611
4612 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
4613 [Ben Laurie]
4614
4615 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
4616 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
4617 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
4618 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
4619 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
4620 functions prevents this.
4621 [Steve Henson]
4622
4623 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
4624 [Ben Laurie]
4625
4626 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
4627 correct _ecb suffix.
4628 [Ben Laurie]
4629
4630 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
4631 revocation information is handled using the text based index
4632 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
4633 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
4634 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
4635 [Steve Henson]
4636
4637 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
4638 [Richard Levitte]
4639
4640 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
4641 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
4642 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
4643 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
4644
4645 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
4646 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
4647
4648 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
4649 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4650 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
4651 via Richard Levitte]
4652
4653 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
4654 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
4655 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
4656 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
4657 [Geoff Thorpe]
4658
4659 *) Speed up EVP routines.
4660 Before:
4661 encrypt
4662 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
4663 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k

4675 [Ben Laurie]
4676
4677 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
4678 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
4679
4680 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
4681 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
4682 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
4683 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
4684 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
4685 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
4686 [Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
4689 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
4690 [Richard Levitte]
4691
4692 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
4693 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
4694 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
4695 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
4696
4697 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
4698 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
4699 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
4700 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
4701 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
4702 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
4703 callback.
4704 [Richard Levitte]
4705
4706 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
4707 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
4708 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
4709 and interrupts/cancellations.
4710 [Richard Levitte]
4711
4712 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
4713 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
4714 [Steve Henson]
4715
4716 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
4717 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
4718 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
4719
4720 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
4721 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
4722 kind of callback.
4723 [Richard Levitte]
4724
4725 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
4726 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
4727 than this minimum value is recommended.
4728 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4729
4730 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
4731 that are easily reachable.
4732 [Richard Levitte]
4733
4734 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
4735 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
4736
4737 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
4738
4739 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
4740 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
4741 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
4742 needed for static libraries under Win32.
4743 [Steve Henson]
4744
4745 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
4746 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
4747 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
4748 [Steve Henson]
4749
4750 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
4751 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
4752 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
4753 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
4754 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
4755 internally such as S/MIME.
4756
4757 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
4758 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
4759 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
4760
4761 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
4762 applications.
4763 [Steve Henson]
4764
4765 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
4766 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
4767 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
4768 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
4769
4770 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
4771
4772 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
4773
4774 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
4775 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
4776 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
4777 handling.
4778 [Steve Henson]
4779
4780 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
4781 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
4782 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
4783 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
4784 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
4785 a window system and the like.
4786 [Richard Levitte]
4787
4788 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
4789 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
4790 [Geoff]
4791
4792 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
4793 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
4794 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
4795 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
4796 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
4797 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
4798 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
4799 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
4800 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
4801 ENGINE structure.
4802 [Geoff]
4803
4804 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
4805 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
4806 tag cache.
4807 [Steve Henson]
4808
4809 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
4810 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
4811 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
4812 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
4813 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
4814 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
4815 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
4816 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
4817 [Geoff]
4818
4819 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
4820 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
4821 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
4822 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
4823 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
4824 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
4825 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
4826 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
4827 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
4828 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
4829 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
4830 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
4831 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
4832 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
4833 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
4834 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
4835 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
4836 [Geoff]
4837
4838 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
4839 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
4840 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
4841 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
4842 internal engine_int.h header.
4843 [Geoff]
4844
4845 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
4846 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
4847 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
4848 modify their own ones).
4849 [Geoff]
4850
4851 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
4852 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
4853 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
4854 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
4855 later on via ctrl() commands.
4856 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
4857 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
4858 structural references.
4859 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
4860 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
4861 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
4862 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
4863 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
4864 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
4865 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
4866 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
4867 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
4868 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
4869 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
4870 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
4871 [Geoff]
4872
4873 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
4874 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
4875 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
4876 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
4877 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
4878 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
4879 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
4880 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
4881 [Bodo Moeller]
4882
4883 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
4884 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
4885 [Steve Henson]
4886
4887 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
4888 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
4889 [Steve Henson]
4890
4891 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
4892 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
4893 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
4894 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
4895 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
4896 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
4897 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
4898 [Steve Henson]
4899
4900 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
4901 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
4902 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
4903 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
4904 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
4905
4906 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
4907 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
4908 generator).
4909 [Bodo Moeller]
4910
4911 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
4912
4913 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
4914 operations and provides various method functions that can also
4915 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
4916
4917 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
4918 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
4919
4920 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
4921 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
4922 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
4923
4924 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
4925 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
4926
4927 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
4928 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
4929
4930 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
4931
4932 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
4933 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
4934 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
4935 [Bodo Moeller]
4936
4937 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
4938 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
4939 [Richard Levitte]
4940
4941 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
4942 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
4943 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
4944 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
4945 is 40 of more characters long.
4946 [Steve Henson]
4947
4948 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
4949 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
4950 pointers.
4951 [Steve Henson]
4952
4953 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
4954 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
4955 [Bodo Moeller]
4956
4957 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
4958 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
4959 might.
4960 [Steve Henson]
4961
4962 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
4963
4964 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
4965 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
4966
4967 ASN1 error codes
4968 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
4969 ...
4970 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
4971 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
4972 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
4973 ...
4974 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
4975 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
4976
4977 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
4978 [Bodo Moeller]
4979
4980 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
4981 suffices.
4982 [Bodo Moeller]
4983
4984 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
4985 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
4986 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
4987 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
4988 and
4989 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
4990
4991 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
4992 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
4993
4994 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
4995 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
4996 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
4997 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
4998 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
4999 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5000
5001 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5002 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5003
5004 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5005 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5006
5007 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5008 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5009
5010 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5011 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5012 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5013 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5014
5015 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5016 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5017
5018 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5019 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5020
5021 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5022 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5023 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5024 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5025 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5026 [Richard Levitte]
5027
5028 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5029 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5030 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5031 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5032 [Steve Henson]
5033
5034 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5035 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5036 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5037 trust settings.
5038 [Steve Henson]
5039
5040 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5041 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5042 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5043 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5044 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5045 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5046 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5047 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5048 ocsp utility.
5049 [Steve Henson]
5050
5051 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5052 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5053 [Steve Henson]
5054
5055 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5056 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5057 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5058 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5059 [Steve Henson]
5060
5061 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5062 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5063 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5064 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5065 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5066 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5067 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5068 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5069 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5070 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5071 [Steve Henson]
5072
5073 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5074 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5075 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5076 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5077 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5078 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5079 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5080 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5081
5082 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5083 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5084 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5085 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5086 [Richard Levitte]
5087
5088 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5089 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5090 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5091 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5092 opensslconf.h.
5093 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5094 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5095 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5096 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5097 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5098 what is available.
5099 [Richard Levitte]
5100
5101 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5102 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5103 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5104 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5105 auto incremented.
5106 [Steve Henson]
5107
5108 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5109 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5110 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5111 [Steve Henson]
5112
5113 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5114 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5115 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5116 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5117 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5118 [Steve Henson]
5119
5120 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5121 [Steve Henson]
5122
5123 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5124 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5125 option to ocsp utility.
5126 [Steve Henson]
5127
5128 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5129 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5130 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5131 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5132 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5133 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5134 the request is nonce-less.
5135 [Steve Henson]
5136
5137 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5138 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5139 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5140 [Bodo Moeller]
5141
5142 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5143 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5144 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5145 [Steve Henson]
5146
5147 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5148 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5149 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5150 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5151 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5152 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5153
5154 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5155 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5156 appear to exist.
5157 [Steve Henson]
5158
5159 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5160 additional certificates supplied.
5161 [Steve Henson]
5162
5163 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5164 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5165 signature against.
5166 [Richard Levitte]
5167
5168 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5169 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5170 AES OIDs.
5171
5172 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5173 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5174 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5175 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5176 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5177 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5178 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5179 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5180 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5181
5182 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5183 request to response.
5184 [Steve Henson]
5185
5186 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5187 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5188 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5189 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5190 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5191 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5192 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5193 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5194 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5195 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5196 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5197 [Steve Henson]
5198
5199 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5200 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5201 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5202 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5203 [Steve Henson]
5204
5205 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5206 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5207
5208 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5209 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5210 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5211 [Steve Henson]
5212
5213 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5214 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5215 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5216 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5217 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5218
5219 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5220 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5221 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5222 [Steve Henson]
5223
5224 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5225 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5226 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5227 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5228 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5229 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5230 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5231 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5232
5233 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5234 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5235 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5236 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5237 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5238 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5239 [Steve Henson]
5240
5241 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5242 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5243 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5244 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5245 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5246 printout format cleaned up.
5247 [Steve Henson]
5248
5249 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5250 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5251 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5252 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5253 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5254 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5255 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5256 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5257 [Steve Henson]
5258
5259 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5260 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5261 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5262 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5263 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5264 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5265 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5266 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5267 [Steve Henson]
5268
5269 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5270 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5271 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5272 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5273 section to use.
5274 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5275
5276 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5277 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5278 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5279 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5280 [Steve Henson]
5281
5282 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5283 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5284 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5285 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5286 in the index file.
5287 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5288
5289 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5290 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5291 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5292 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5293
5294 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5295 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5296
5297 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5298 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5299 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5300 [Steve Henson]
5301
5302 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5303 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5304 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5305 [Bodo Moeller]
5306
5307 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5308 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5309 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5310 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5311 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5312 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5313 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5314 functions are provided:
5315
5316 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5317 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5318 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5319 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5320
5321 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5322 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5323 extended allocation function is enabled.
5324 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5325 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5326 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5327
5328 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5329 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5330 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5331 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5332 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5333 [Geoff Thorpe]
5334
5335 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5336 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5337 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5338 be queried.
5339 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5340 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5341 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5342 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5343
5344 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5345 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5346 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5347 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5348 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5349 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5350 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5351 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5352 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5353 [Richard Levitte]
5354
5355 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5356 provide utility functions which an application needing
5357 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5358 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5359 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5360
5361 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5362 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5363 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5364 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5365 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5366 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5367 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5368 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5369 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5370
5371 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5372 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5373 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5374 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5375 [Steve Henson]
5376
5377 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5378 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5379 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5380 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5381 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5382 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5383 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5384 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5385 will be added elsewhere.
5386 [Steve Henson]
5387
5388 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5389 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5390 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5391 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5392 [Steve Henson]
5393
5394 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5395 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5396 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5397 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5398 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5399 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5400 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5401 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5402 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5403 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5404 to produce the required SET OF.
5405 [Steve Henson]
5406
5407 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5408 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5409 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5410 [Richard Levitte]
5411
5412 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5413 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5414 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5415 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5416 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5417 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5418 [Steve Henson]
5419
5420 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5421 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5422 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5423 [Steve Henson]
5424
5425 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5426 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5427 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5428 [Richard Levitte]
5429
5430 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5431 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5432 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5433 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5434 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5435 [Steve Henson]
5436
5437 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5438 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5439 [Steve Henson]
5440
5441 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5442 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5443 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5444 certifcates and CRLs.
5445 [Steve Henson]
5446
5447 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5448 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5449 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5450 [Steve Henson]
5451
5452 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5453 entries for variables.
5454 [Steve Henson]
5455
5456 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5457 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5458 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5459 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5460 [Bodo Moeller]
5461
5462 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5463 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5464 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5465 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5466 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5467 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5468 [Bodo Moeller]
5469
5470 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5471 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5472
5473 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5474 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5475 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5476 [Steve Henson]
5477
5478 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5479 print routines.
5480 [Steve Henson]
5481
5482 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5483 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5484 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5485 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5486 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5487 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5488 [Steve Henson]
5489
5490 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5491 [Steve Henson]
5492
5493 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5494 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5495 for now but they will eventually go away.
5496 [Steve Henson]
5497
5498 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5499 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5500 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5501 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5502 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5503 has also been converted to the new form.
5504 [Steve Henson]
5505
5506 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5507 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5508 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5509 for negative moduli.
5510 [Bodo Moeller]
5511
5512 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5513 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5514 [Bodo Moeller]
5515
5516 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5517 set.
5518 [Bodo Moeller]
5519
5520 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5521 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5522 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5523 type-specific callbacks.
5524 [Geoff Thorpe]
5525
5526 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5527 RFC 2712.
5528 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5529 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5530
5531 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5532 in sections depending on the subject.
5533 [Richard Levitte]
5534
5535 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5536 Windows.
5537 [Richard Levitte]
5538
5539 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5540 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5541 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5542 be handled deterministically).
5543 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5544
5545 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5546 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5547 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5548 [Bodo Moeller]
5549
5550 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5551 [Bodo Moeller]
5552
5553 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5554 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5555 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5556 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5557 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5558 [Bodo Moeller]
5559
5560 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
5561 sign of the number in question.
5562
5563 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
5564
5565 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
5566 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
5567 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
5568 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
5569 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
5570 [Bodo Moeller]
5571
5572 *) New function BN_swap.
5573 [Bodo Moeller]
5574
5575 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
5576 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
5577 results on negative inputs.
5578 [Bodo Moeller]
5579
5580 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
5581 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
5582 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
5583 [Bodo Moeller]
5584
5585 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
5586 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
5587 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
5588 and add new functions:
5589
5590 BN_nnmod
5591 BN_mod_sqr
5592 BN_mod_add
5593 BN_mod_add_quick
5594 BN_mod_sub
5595 BN_mod_sub_quick
5596 BN_mod_lshift1
5597 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
5598 BN_mod_lshift
5599 BN_mod_lshift_quick
5600
5601 These functions always generate non-negative results.
5602
5603 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
5604 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
5605
5606 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
5607 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
5608 be reduced modulo m.
5609 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5610
5611 #if 0
5612 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
5613 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
5614 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
5615
5616 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
5617 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
5618 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
5619 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
5620 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
5621 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
5622 differing sizes.
5623 [Richard Levitte]
5624 #endif
5625
5626 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
5627 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
5628 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
5629 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
5630 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
5631
5632 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
5633 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
5634 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
5635 cause any problems.
5636 [Bodo Moeller]
5637
5638 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
5639 [Richard Levitte]
5640
5641 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
5642 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
5643 [Richard Levitte]
5644
5645 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
5646 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
5647 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
5648 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
5649 time)
5650 [Richard Levitte]
5651
5652 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
5653 [Richard Levitte]
5654
5655 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
5656 [Richard Levitte]
5657
5658 *) Add the following functions:
5659
5660 ENGINE_load_cswift()
5661 ENGINE_load_chil()
5662 ENGINE_load_atalla()
5663 ENGINE_load_nuron()
5664 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
5665
5666 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
5667 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
5668 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
5669 libraries unless it's really needed.
5670
5671 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
5672 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
5673 declarations (they differed!).
5674 [Richard Levitte]
5675
5676 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
5677 [Richard Levitte]
5678
5679 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
5680 [Richard Levitte]
5681
5682 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
5683 [Bodo Moeller]
5684
5685 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
5686 identity, and test if they are actually available.
5687 [Richard Levitte]
5688
5689 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
5690 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
5691 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5692
5693 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
5694 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
5695 [Richard Levitte]
5696
5697 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
5698 [Richard Levitte]
5699
5700 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
5701 [Richard Levitte]
5702
5703 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
5704 [Ben Laurie]
5705
5706 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
5707 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
5708 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
5709
5710 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
5711 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
5712 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
5713 different shared library filenames on each system.
5714 [Geoff Thorpe]
5715
5716 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
5717 [Richard Levitte]
5718
5719 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
5720 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
5721 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
5722 of two sections.
5723 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
5724
5725 *) NCONF changes.
5726 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
5727 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
5728 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
5729 binary backward compatibility.
5730 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
5731 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
5732 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
5733 LDAP server.
5734 [Richard Levitte]
5735
5736 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
5737 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
5738 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
5739 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
5740 this case.
5741 [Steve Henson]
5742
5743 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
5744 [Ben Laurie]
5745
5746 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
5747 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
5748 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
5749 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
5750 set.
5751 [Steve Henson]
5752
5753 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
5754 [Richard Levitte]
5755
5756 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
5757
5758 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
5759 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
5760 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
5761
5762 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
5763
5764 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
5765
5766 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
5767 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
5768 [Steve Henson]
5769
5770 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
5771
5772 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
5773
5774 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
5775 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
5776
5777 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
5778 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
5779
5780 [Steve Henson]
5781
5782 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
5783 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
5784 specifications.
5785 [Steve Henson]
5786
5787 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
5788 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
5789 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
5790 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
5791
5792 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
5793 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
5794 [Richard Levitte]
5795
5796 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
5797
5798 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
5799 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
5800 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
5801 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
5802 [Bodo Moeller]
5803
5804 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
5805 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
5806 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
5807 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
5808 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
5809
5810 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
5811 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
5812 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
5813 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
5814 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
5815 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
5816 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
5817 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
5818 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
5819 [Bodo Moeller]
5820
5821 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
5822
5823 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
5824 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
5825 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
5826 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
5827 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
5828
5829 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
5830 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
5831 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
5832
5833 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
5834
5835 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
5836 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
5837 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
5838 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
5839 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
5840 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
5841 [Geoff Thorpe]
5842
5843 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
5844 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
5845 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
5846 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
5847 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
5848 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5849
5850 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
5851 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
5852 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
5853
5854 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
5855 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
5856 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
5857 EVP_cleanup().
5858 [Richard Levitte]
5859
5860 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
5861 being properly terminated.
5862 [Richard Levitte]
5863
5864 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
5865 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
5866 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
5867 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
5868
5869 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
5870 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
5871 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
5872 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
5873 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
5874 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
5875 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
5876 change.
5877 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
5878
5879 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
5880 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
5881 [Bodo Moeller]
5882
5883 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
5884 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
5885 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
5886 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
5887 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
5888 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
5889 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
5890 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
5891
5892 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
5893 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
5894 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
5895 (see [openssl.org #212]).
5896 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5897
5898 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
5899 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
5900 [Steve Henson]
5901
5902 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
5903
5904 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
5905 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
5906 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
5907
5908 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
5909
5910 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
5911 and get fix the header length calculation.
5912 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
5913 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
5914 Steve Henson]
5915
5916 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
5917 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
5918 assertions could call abort()).
5919 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
5920
5921 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
5922
5923 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
5924 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
5925 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
5926 supplied buffer.
5927 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
5928
5929 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
5930 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
5931 by the selection routines (PR #130).
5932 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5933
5934 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
5935 [Nils Larsch]
5936
5937 *) New option
5938 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
5939 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
5940 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
5941
5942 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
5943 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
5944 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
5945 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
5946 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
5947 applications.
5948 [Bodo Moeller]
5949
5950 *) Changes in security patch:
5951
5952 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
5953 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
5954 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
5955 F30602-01-2-0537.
5956
5957 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
5958 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
5959 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
5960 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
5961 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
5962
5963 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
5964 happen in practice.
5965 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5966
5967 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
5968 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
5969 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
5970
5971 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5972 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
5973 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5974
5975 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
5976 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
5977 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5978
5979 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
5980
5981 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
5982 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
5983 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
5984
5985 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
5986 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
5987
5988 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
5989 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
5990 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
5991 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
5992 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
5993 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
5994 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5995
5996 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
5997 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
5998 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
5999 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6000 [Bodo Moeller]
6001
6002 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6003 [Bodo Moeller]
6004
6005 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6006 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6007 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6008 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6009 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6010 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6011
6012 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6013 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6014 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6015 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6016 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6017 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6018
6019 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6020 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6021 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6022 BN_generate_prime().)
6023
6024 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6025 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6026 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6027 better.
6028 [Bodo Moeller]
6029
6030 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6031 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6032 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6033
6034 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6035 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6036 when using non-blocking I/O.
6037 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6038
6039 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6040 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6041
6042 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6043 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6044 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6045
6046 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6047 configuration for the versions before that.
6048 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6049
6050 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6051 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6052 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6053 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6054 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6055
6056 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6057 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6058 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6059 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6060
6061 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6062 value is 0.
6063 [Richard Levitte]
6064
6065 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6066 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6067 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6068
6069 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6070 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6071
6072 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6073 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6074 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6075 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6076 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6077 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6078 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6079 session cache.
6080
6081 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6082 using a local variable.
6083 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6084
6085 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6086 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6087 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6088
6089 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6090 [Richard Levitte]
6091
6092 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6093 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6094
6095 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6096 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6097 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6098
6099 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6100
6101 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6102 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6103 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6104 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6105 [Bodo Moeller]
6106
6107 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6108 present.
6109 [Steve Henson]
6110
6111 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6112 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6113 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6114 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6115 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6116
6117 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6118 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6119 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6120
6121 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6122 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6123 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6124
6125 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6126 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6127 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6128 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6129
6130 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6131 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6132 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6133 modules).
6134 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6135
6136 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6137 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6138 from 0.9.7.
6139 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6140
6141 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6142 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6143 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6144 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6145
6146 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6147 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6148 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6149 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6150
6151 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6152 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6153
6154 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6155 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6156 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6157 [Bodo Moeller]
6158
6159 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6160 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6161 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6162 become invalid.
6163 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6164
6165 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6166 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6167 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6168 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6169 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6170 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6171 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6172 [Bodo Moeller]
6173
6174 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6175 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6176 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6177 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6178
6179 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6180 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6181 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6182 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6183 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6184 the client will at least see that alert.
6185 [Bodo Moeller]
6186
6187 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6188 correctly.
6189 [Bodo Moeller]
6190
6191 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6192 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6193 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6194
6195 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6196 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6197 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6198 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6199 HelloRequest.
6200
6201 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6202 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6203 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6204
6205 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6206 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6207 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6208 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6209 may leak via logfiles.)
6210
6211 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6212 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6213 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6214 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6215 the legal range.
6216 [Bodo Moeller]
6217
6218 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6219 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6220 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6221
6222 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6223 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6224 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6225 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6226 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6227 [Bodo Moeller]
6228
6229 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6230 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6231
6232 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6233 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6234 followed by modular reduction.
6235 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6236
6237 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6238 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6239 [Bodo Moeller]
6240
6241 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6242 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6243 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6244 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6245 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6246
6247 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6248 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6249
6250 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6251 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6252 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6253
6254 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6255 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6256 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6257 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6258 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6259 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6260 automatically.
6261 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6262
6263 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6264 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6265 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6266 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6267 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6268
6269 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6270 [Andy Polyakov]
6271
6272 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6273 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6274 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6275 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6276 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6277 to allow the necessary settings.
6278 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6279
6280 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6281 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6282 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6283 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6284 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6285
6286 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6287 dh->length and always used
6288
6289 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6290
6291 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6292 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6293 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6294 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6295 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6296 dh->length.
6297
6298 So switch back to
6299
6300 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6301
6302 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6303 otherwise.
6304 [Bodo Moeller]
6305
6306 *) In
6307
6308 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6309 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6310 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6311 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6312
6313 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6314 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6315 always reject numbers >= n.
6316 [Bodo Moeller]
6317
6318 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6319 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6320 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6321 variable) is not atomic.
6322 [Bodo Moeller]
6323
6324 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6325 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6326 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6327 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6328
6329 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6330 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6331
6332 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6333 little-endian MIPS.
6334 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6335
6336 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6337 [Richard Levitte]
6338
6339 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6340
6341 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6342 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6343 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6344 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6345 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6346 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6347 to traverse all of 'state'.
6348
6349 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6350 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6351 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6352
6353 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6354 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6355
6356 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6357 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6358 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6359 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6360 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6361 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6362 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6363 further strengthens the PRNG.
6364 [Bodo Moeller]
6365
6366 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6367 [Andy Polyakov]
6368
6369 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6370 an error message in this case.
6371 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6372
6373 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6374 [Steve Henson]
6375
6376 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6377 positive and less than q.
6378 [Bodo Moeller]
6379
6380 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6381 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6382 that itself.
6383 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6384
6385 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6386 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6387 [Bodo Moeller]
6388
6389 *) Fix OAEP check.
6390 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6391
6392 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6393 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6394 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6395 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6396 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6397 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6398 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6399 paper.)
6400
6401 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6402 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6403 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6404 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6405
6406 Both problems are now fixed.
6407 [Bodo Moeller]
6408
6409 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6410 (previously it was 1024).
6411 [Bodo Moeller]
6412
6413 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6414 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6415 [Steve Henson]
6416
6417 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6418 [Steve Henson]
6419
6420 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6421 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6422 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6423 [Steve Henson]
6424
6425 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6426 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6427 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6428 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6429 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6430 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6431 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6432 environment variables.
6433
6434 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6435 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6436 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6437 [Bodo Moeller]
6438
6439 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6440 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6441 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6442 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6443 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6444 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6445 [Bodo Moeller]
6446
6447 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6448 versions of 'test'.
6449 [Bodo Moeller]
6450
6451 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6452
6453 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6454 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6455
6456 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6457 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6458 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6459 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6460 CygWin.
6461 [Richard Levitte]
6462
6463 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6464 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6465 amount of data available.
6466 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6467 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6468
6469 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6470 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6471 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6472 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6473 [Bodo Moeller]
6474
6475 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6476 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6477 and UnixWare.
6478 [Richard Levitte]
6479
6480 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6481 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6482 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6483 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6484 [Ulf Moeller]
6485
6486 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6487 [Andy Polyakov]
6488
6489 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6490 [Richard Levitte]
6491
6492 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6493 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6494 [Steve Henson]
6495 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6496
6497 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6498 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6499 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6500 (but broken) behaviour.
6501 [Steve Henson]
6502
6503 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6504 it when found.
6505 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6506
6507 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6508 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6509 [Bodo Moeller]
6510
6511 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6512 did not exist.
6513 [Bodo Moeller]
6514
6515 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6516 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6517
6518 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6519 [Richard Levitte]
6520
6521 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6522 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6523 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6524
6525 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6526 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6527 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6528 [Steve Henson]
6529
6530 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6531 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6532 [Ulf Moeller]
6533
6534 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6535 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6536
6537 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6538
6539 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6540
6541 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6542 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6543 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6544 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6545 [Bodo Moeller]
6546
6547 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6548 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6549
6550 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6551 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6552 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6553
6554 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6555 was empty.
6556 [Steve Henson]
6557 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6558
6559 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6560 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
6561 but the code is actually correct.
6562 [Steve Henson]
6563
6564 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
6565 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
6566 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
6567 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
6568 and leaves the highest bit random.
6569 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
6570
6571 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
6572 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
6573 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
6574 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
6575 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
6576 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
6577 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
6578 [Bodo Moeller]
6579
6580 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
6581 [Ulf Moeller]
6582
6583 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
6584 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
6585 [Steve Henson]
6586
6587 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
6588 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
6589 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
6590 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
6591 headers.
6592 [Richard Levitte]
6593
6594 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
6595 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
6596 and break the signature.
6597 [Steve Henson]
6598 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6599
6600 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
6601 DH ciphersuites.
6602 [Steve Henson]
6603
6604 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
6605 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
6606 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
6607 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
6608 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
6609 [Bodo Moeller]
6610
6611 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
6612 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6613
6614 *) ./config script fixes.
6615 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
6616
6617 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
6618 [Bodo Moeller]
6619
6620 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
6621 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
6622 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
6623 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
6624 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
6625
6626 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
6627 call failed, free the DSA structure.
6628 [Bodo Moeller]
6629
6630 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
6631 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
6632 [Steve Henson]
6633
6634 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
6635 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
6636 when writing a 32767 byte record.
6637 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
6638
6639 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
6640 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
6641
6642 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
6643 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
6644 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
6645 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
6646 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
6647
6648 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
6649 [Bodo Moeller]
6650
6651 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
6652 [Ulf Möller]
6653
6654 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
6655 [Ulf Möller]
6656
6657 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
6658 [Bodo Moeller]
6659
6660 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
6661 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
6662 [Bodo Moeller]
6663
6664 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
6665 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
6666 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
6667 result of the server certificate verification.)
6668 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6669
6670 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
6671 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
6672 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
6673 [Bodo Moeller]
6674
6675 *) Fix SSL_peek:
6676 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
6677 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
6678 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
6679 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
6680 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
6681 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
6682 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
6683 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
6684 [Bodo Moeller]
6685
6686 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
6687 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
6688 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
6689 happening the other way round.
6690 [Geoff Thorpe]
6691
6692 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
6693 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
6694 [Bodo Moeller]
6695
6696 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
6697 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
6698 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
6699 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
6700 [Richard Levitte]
6701
6702 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
6703 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
6704
6705 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
6706
6707 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
6708 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
6709 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
6710 that.
6711
6712 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
6713
6714 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
6715
6716 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
6717 static ones.
6718 [Richard Levitte]
6719
6720 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
6721
6722 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
6723 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
6724 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
6725 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
6726 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
6727
6728 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
6729 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
6730 matter what.
6731 [Richard Levitte]
6732
6733 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
6734 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6735
6736 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
6737
6738 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
6739 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
6740 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
6741 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
6742 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
6743 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
6744 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
6745 by the Finished messages.
6746 [Bodo Moeller]
6747
6748 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
6749 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
6750
6751 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
6752 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
6753 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
6754 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
6755 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
6756 appropriately.
6757 [Steve Henson]
6758
6759 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
6760 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
6761 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
6762 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
6763 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
6764 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
6765 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
6766 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
6767 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
6768 together.
6769 [Steve Henson]
6770
6771 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
6772 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
6773 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
6774 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
6775
6776 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
6777 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
6778 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
6779 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
6780 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
6781 the answer.
6782
6783 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
6784 been tested well enough.
6785 [Richard Levitte]
6786
6787 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
6788 it can return incorrect results.
6789 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
6790 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
6791 [Bodo Moeller]
6792
6793 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
6794 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
6795 include zero length content when signing messages.
6796 [Steve Henson]
6797
6798 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
6799 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
6800 [Bodo Möller]
6801
6802 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
6803 [Richard Levitte]
6804
6805 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
6806 wrong sign.
6807 [Ulf Möller]
6808
6809 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
6810 packages. The default package contains applications, application
6811 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
6812 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
6813 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
6814 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
6815 [Richard Levitte]
6816
6817 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
6818 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6819
6820 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
6821 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
6822
6823 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
6824 random number < q in the DSA library.
6825 [Ulf Möller]
6826
6827 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
6828 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
6829 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
6830 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
6831 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
6832 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
6833 just makes things more complicated.)
6834 [Bodo Moeller]
6835
6836 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
6837 from EGD.
6838 [Ben Laurie]
6839
6840 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
6841 work better on such systems.
6842 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
6843
6844 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
6845 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
6846 keyid to the certificates aux info.
6847 [Steve Henson]
6848
6849 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
6850 if there was more than one signature.
6851 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
6852
6853 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
6854 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
6855 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
6856 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
6857 [Richard Levitte]
6858
6859 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
6860 rather than always using the current time.
6861 [Steve Henson]
6862
6863 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
6864 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
6865 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
6866 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
6867 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
6868 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
6869
6870 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
6871 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
6872
6873 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
6874
6875 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
6876 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
6877 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
6878 the same hash value.
6879
6880 As a result various functions (which were all internal
6881 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
6882 structure. This will break anything that messed round
6883 with X509_STORE internally.
6884
6885 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
6886 exact match, rather than just subject name.
6887
6888 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
6889 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
6890 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
6891 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
6892 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
6893 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
6894 entirely (maybe later...).
6895
6896 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
6897
6898 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
6899 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
6900 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
6901 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
6902 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
6903 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
6904 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
6905 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
6906
6907 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
6908 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
6909
6910 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
6911 to customise the verify behaviour.
6912 [Steve Henson]
6913
6914 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
6915 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
6916 [Steve Henson]
6917
6918 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
6919 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
6920 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
6921 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
6922 request is improperly encoded.
6923 [Steve Henson]
6924
6925 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
6926 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
6927 BIO_write(b, ...).
6928
6929 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
6930 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
6931
6932 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
6933 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
6934 words set to zero.)
6935 [Bodo Moeller]
6936
6937 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
6938 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
6939 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
6940 [Bodo Moeller]
6941
6942 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
6943 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
6944 BIO/fp routines also added.
6945 [Steve Henson]
6946
6947 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
6948 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
6949
6950 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
6951 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
6952 demos/state_machine.
6953 [Ben Laurie]
6954
6955 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
6956 generation and verification.
6957 [Steve Henson]
6958
6959 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
6960 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
6961 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
6962 encode and decode it manually.
6963 [Steve Henson]
6964
6965 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
6966 compile under VC++.
6967 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
6968
6969 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
6970 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
6971 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
6972 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
6973
6974 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
6975 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
6976 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
6977 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
6978 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
6979 [Steve Henson]
6980
6981 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
6982 [Richard Levitte]
6983
6984 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
6985 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
6986 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
6987
6988 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
6989 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
6990 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
6991 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
6992 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
6993 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
6994 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
6995 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
6996
6997 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
6998 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
6999
7000 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7001
7002 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7003 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7004 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7005
7006 [Richard Levitte]
7007
7008 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7009 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7010 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7011 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7012 [Richard Levitte]
7013
7014 *) MD4 implemented.
7015 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7016
7017 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7018 [Richard Levitte]
7019
7020 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7021 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7022 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7023 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7024 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7025 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7026 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7027 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7028 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7029 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7030 short or long names are found.
7031 [Steve Henson]
7032
7033 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7034 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7035
7036 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7037 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7038 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7039 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7040
7041 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7042 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7043 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7044 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7045 [Bodo Moeller]
7046
7047 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7048 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7049 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7050 [Richard Levitte]
7051
7052 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7053 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7054 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7055 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7056 to allow the various flags to be set.
7057 [Steve Henson]
7058
7059 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7060 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7061 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7062 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7063 dates to be checked.
7064 [Steve Henson]
7065
7066 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7067 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7068 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7069 [Steve Henson]
7070
7071 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7072 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7073 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7074 [Steve Henson]
7075
7076 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7077 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7078 [Bodo Moeller]
7079
7080 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7081 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7082 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7083 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7084 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7085 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7086 [Richard Levitte]
7087
7088 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7089 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7090 Random Numbers.
7091 [Ulf Möller]
7092
7093 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7094 DSA key.
7095 [Steve Henson]
7096
7097 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7098 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7099 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7100 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7101 form signing output easier to verify.
7102 [Steve Henson]
7103
7104 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7105 [Steve Henson]
7106
7107 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7108 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7109 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7110 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7111 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7112 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7113 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7114 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7115 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7116 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7117 [Steve Henson]
7118
7119 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7120
7121 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7122 the syntax given in objects.README.
7123 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7124 obj_mac.h.
7125 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7126 obj_mac.h.
7127
7128 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7129 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7130 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7131 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7132 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7133 consistent name changes.
7134 [Richard Levitte]
7135
7136 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7137 [Bodo Moeller]
7138
7139 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7140 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7141 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7142 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7143 [Richard Levitte]
7144
7145 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7146 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7147 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7148 of safestack.h .
7149 [Steve Henson]
7150
7151 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7152 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7153 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7154 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7155 [Steve Henson]
7156
7157 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7158 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7159 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7160 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7161 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7162 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7163 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7164 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7165 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7166 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7167 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7168 [Steve Henson]
7169
7170 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7171 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7172 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7173 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7174 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7175 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7176 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7177 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7178 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7179 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7180 [Steve Henson]
7181
7182 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7183 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7184 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7185 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7186
7187 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7188 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7189 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7190 omit any duplicate addresses.
7191 [Steve Henson]
7192
7193 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7194 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7195 [Bodo Moeller]
7196
7197 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7198 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7199 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7200 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7201 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7202 [Bodo Moeller]
7203
7204 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7205 software:
7206 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7207 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7208 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7209 Free => OPENSSL_free
7210 [Richard Levitte]
7211
7212 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7213 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7214 [Bodo Moeller]
7215
7216 *) CygWin32 support.
7217 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7218
7219 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7220 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7221 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7222 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7223 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7224 approach.
7225 [Geoff Thorpe]
7226
7227 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7228 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7229 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7230 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7231 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7232 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7233 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7234 [Geoff Thorpe]
7235
7236 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7237 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7238 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7239 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7240 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7241 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7242 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7243 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7244 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7245 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7246 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7247 [Bodo Moeller]
7248
7249 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7250 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7251 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7252 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7253 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7254
7255 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7256 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7257 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7258 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7259 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7260
7261 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7262 ciphers.
7263
7264 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7265 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7266 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7267 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7268
7269 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7270
7271 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7272 of macros.
7273
7274 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7275 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7276 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7277 flags.
7278
7279 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7280 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7281 any installed hardware versions can.
7282 [Steve Henson]
7283
7284 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7285 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7286 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7287 number.
7288 [Bodo Moeller]
7289
7290 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7291 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7292 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7293 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7294 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7295
7296 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7297 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7298 [Steve Henson]
7299
7300 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7301 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7302 [Richard Levitte]
7303
7304 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7305 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7306 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7307 features.
7308 [Steve Henson]
7309
7310 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7311 [Ulf Möller]
7312
7313 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7314 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7315 but no ssl client purpose.
7316 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7317
7318 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7319 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7320 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7321 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7322 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7323 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7324 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7325 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7326 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7327 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7328 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7329 [Steve Henson]
7330
7331 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7332 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7333 be obtained from the error queue.
7334 [Bodo Moeller]
7335
7336 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7337 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7338 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7339 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7340 [Bodo Moeller]
7341
7342 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7343 [Ulf Möller]
7344
7345 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7346 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7347 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7348 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7349 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7350 [Geoff Thorpe]
7351
7352 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7353 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7354 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7355 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7356 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7357 [Geoff Thorpe]
7358
7359 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7360 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7361 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7362 may not be NULL.
7363 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7364
7365 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7366 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7367 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7368 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7369 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7370 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7371 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7372 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7373 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7374 or "the configuration storage API"...
7375
7376 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7377
7378 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7379 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7380
7381 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7382
7383 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7384
7385 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7386 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7387 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7388 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7389 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7390 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7391 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7392
7393 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7394 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7395 [Richard Levitte]
7396
7397 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7398 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7399 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7400 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7401 [Bodo Moeller]
7402
7403 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7404 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7405 them in a portable way.
7406 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7407
7408 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7409
7410 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7411
7412 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7413 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7414
7415 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7416 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7417 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7418 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7419
7420 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7421 was larger than the MD block size.
7422 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7423
7424 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7425 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7426 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7427 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7428 components.
7429 [Steve Henson]
7430
7431 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7432 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7433 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7434
7435 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7436 discouraged.
7437 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7438
7439 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7440 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7441 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7442 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7443 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7444 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7445
7446 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7447 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7448
7449 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7450 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7451 [Bodo Moeller]
7452
7453 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7454 [Bodo Moeller]
7455
7456 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7457 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7458 its own key.
7459 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7460 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7461 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7462 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7463 [Bodo Moeller]
7464
7465 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7466 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7467 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7468 does not suppress any output.
7469 [Richard Levitte]
7470
7471 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7472 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7473 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7474 with all the associated security issues.
7475
7476 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7477 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7478 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7479 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7480 use the value in the default purpose.
7481 [Steve Henson]
7482
7483 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7484 and fix a memory leak.
7485 [Steve Henson]
7486
7487 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7488 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7489 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7490 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7491 [Bodo Moeller]
7492
7493 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7494 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7495 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7496 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7497 [Bodo Moeller]
7498
7499 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7500 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7501 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7502 [Bodo Moeller]
7503
7504 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7505 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7506 [Bodo Moeller]
7507
7508 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7509 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7510 which was free.
7511 [Steve Henson]
7512
7513 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7514 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7515 [Bodo Moeller]
7516
7517 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7518 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7519 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7520 [Bodo Moeller]
7521
7522 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7523 number generation fails.
7524 [Bodo Moeller]
7525
7526 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7527 [Bodo Moeller]
7528
7529 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7530 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7531
7532 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7533 [Ulf Möller]
7534
7535 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7536 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7537
7538 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7539 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7540
7541 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7542
7543 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7544 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7545 [Steve Henson]
7546
7547 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7548 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7549
7550 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7551 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7552 [Ulf Möller]
7553
7554 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7555 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7556 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7557 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7558 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7559 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7560
7561 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
7562 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
7563 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
7564 for example.
7565 [Steve Henson]
7566
7567 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
7568 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
7569 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
7570 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
7571 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
7572 counter, some don't.)
7573 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
7574 counters or duplicate objects.
7575 [Steve Henson]
7576
7577 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
7578 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
7579 [Steve Henson]
7580
7581 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
7582 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
7583 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
7584
7585 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
7586 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
7587 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
7588 or -rand.
7589 [Ulf Möller]
7590
7591 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
7592 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
7593 [Steve Henson]
7594
7595 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
7596 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
7597 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
7598 cipher list.
7599 [Steve Henson]
7600
7601 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
7602 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
7603 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
7604 [Steve Henson]
7605
7606 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
7607 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
7608 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
7609 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
7610 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
7611 should work without changes.
7612 [Richard Levitte]
7613
7614 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
7615 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
7616 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
7617 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
7618 must be defined. E.g.,
7619 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
7620 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
7621 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
7622 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
7623
7624 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
7625 record layer.
7626 [Bodo Moeller]
7627
7628 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
7629 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
7630 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
7631 [Steve Henson]
7632
7633 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
7634 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
7635 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
7636 request header lines. Some software needs this.
7637 [Steve Henson]
7638
7639 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
7640 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
7641 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
7642 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
7643 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
7644 is prompted for as usual.
7645 [Steve Henson]
7646
7647 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
7648 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
7649 autodetect the card and use it if present.
7650 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
7651
7652 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
7653 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
7654 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
7655 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
7656 [Steve Henson]
7657
7658 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
7659 [Andy Polyakov]
7660
7661 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
7662 of seed file.
7663 [Steve Henson]
7664
7665 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
7666 [Bodo Moeller]
7667
7668 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
7669 [Steve Henson]
7670
7671 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
7672 bits.
7673 [Ulf Möller]
7674
7675 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
7676 [Ulf Möller]
7677
7678 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
7679 [Andy Polyakov]
7680
7681 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
7682 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
7683 [Ulf Möller]
7684
7685 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
7686 options to produce them.
7687 [Steve Henson]
7688
7689 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
7690 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
7691 [Ulf Möller]
7692
7693 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
7694 for p == 0.
7695 [Ulf Möller]
7696
7697 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
7698 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
7699 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
7700 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
7701 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
7702 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
7703 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
7704 [Steve Henson]
7705
7706 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
7707 [Steve Henson]
7708
7709 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
7710 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
7711 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
7712 [Bodo Moeller]
7713
7714 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
7715 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
7716
7717 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
7718 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
7719 [Ulf Möller]
7720
7721 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
7722 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
7723 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
7724 has already seen).
7725 [Bodo Moeller]
7726
7727 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
7728 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
7729
7730 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
7731 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
7732 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
7733 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
7734 generation becomes much faster.
7735
7736 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
7737 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
7738 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
7739 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
7740 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
7741 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
7742 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
7743 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
7744 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
7745 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
7746 [Bodo Moeller]
7747
7748 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
7749 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
7750 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
7751 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
7752 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
7753 trial division stage.
7754 [Bodo Moeller]
7755
7756 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
7757 as ASN1_TIME.
7758 [Steve Henson]
7759
7760 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
7761 [Steve Henson]
7762
7763 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
7764 [Ulf Möller]
7765
7766 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
7767 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
7768 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
7769 the comments.
7770 [Ulf Möller]
7771
7772 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
7773 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
7774 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
7775 [Bodo Moeller]
7776
7777 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
7778 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
7779 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
7780 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7781
7782 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
7783 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
7784 [Steve Henson]
7785
7786 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
7787 [Ulf Möller]
7788
7789 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
7790 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
7791 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
7792 Rabin-Miller iterations.
7793 [Ulf Möller]
7794
7795 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
7796 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
7797 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
7798 [Ulf Möller]
7799
7800 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
7801 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
7802 (instead of parameters) in future.
7803 [Steve Henson]
7804
7805 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
7806 when a new cipher list is set.
7807 [Steve Henson]
7808
7809 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
7810 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
7811 wrong.
7812
7813 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
7814 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
7815 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
7816
7817 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
7818 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
7819 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
7820 an error is flagged.
7821
7822 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
7823 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
7824 the readability was also increased :-)
7825 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7826
7827 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
7828 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
7829 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
7830 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
7831 as the root CA.
7832 [Steve Henson]
7833
7834 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
7835 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
7836 [Steve Henson]
7837
7838 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
7839 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
7840 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
7841 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
7842 instead.
7843
7844 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
7845 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
7846 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
7847 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
7848 because they handle more complex structures.)
7849 [Steve Henson]
7850
7851 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
7852 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
7853 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
7854 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7855
7856 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
7857 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
7858 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
7859 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
7860 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
7861 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
7862 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
7863 [Ulf Möller]
7864
7865 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
7866 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
7867 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
7868 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
7869 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
7870 [Bodo Moeller]
7871
7872 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
7873 [Bodo Moeller]
7874
7875 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
7876 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
7877 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
7878 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
7879 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
7880 to use this.
7881
7882 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
7883 code.
7884 [Steve Henson]
7885
7886 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
7887 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
7888 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
7889 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
7890 [Steve Henson]
7891
7892 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
7893 [Ulf Möller]
7894
7895 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
7896 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
7897 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
7898 international characters are used.
7899
7900 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
7901 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
7902 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
7903 in ASN1 order.
7904 [Steve Henson]
7905
7906 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
7907 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
7908 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
7909 request.
7910
7911 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
7912 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
7913 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
7914 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
7915 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
7916 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
7917
7918 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
7919 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
7920 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
7921 be handled by the string table functions.
7922
7923 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
7924 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
7925 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
7926 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
7927 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
7928 types at all.
7929 [Steve Henson]
7930
7931 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
7932 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
7933 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
7934 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
7935 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
7936
7937 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
7938 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
7939 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
7940 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
7941 [Bodo Moeller]
7942
7943 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
7944 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
7945 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
7946 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
7947 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
7948 SHA1.
7949 [Andy Polyakov]
7950
7951 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
7952 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
7953 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
7954 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
7955 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
7956 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
7957 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
7958 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
7959
7960 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
7961 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
7962 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
7963 [Steve Henson]
7964
7965 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
7966 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
7967 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
7968 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
7969 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
7970 support to pkcs8 application.
7971 [Steve Henson]
7972
7973 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
7974 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
7975 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
7976 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
7977 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
7978 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
7979 [Bodo Moeller]
7980
7981 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
7982 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
7983 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
7984 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
7985 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
7986 consistency.
7987 [Bodo Moeller]
7988
7989 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
7990 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
7991 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
7992 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
7993 example.
7994 [Steve Henson]
7995
7996 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
7997 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
7998 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
7999 and any application specific purposes.
8000
8001 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8002 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8003 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8004 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8005 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8006 if the certificate is self signed.
8007 [Steve Henson]
8008
8009 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8010 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8011 [Steve Henson]
8012
8013 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8014 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8015 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8016 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8017 [Steve Henson]
8018
8019 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8020 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8021 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8022 Update documentation.
8023 [Steve Henson]
8024
8025 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8026 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8027 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8028 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8029 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8030 [Steve Henson]
8031
8032 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8033 for details.
8034 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8035
8036 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8037 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8038 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8039 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8040 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8041 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8042 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8043 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8044 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8045 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8046
8047 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8048
8049 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8050 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8051 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8052 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8053 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8054
8055 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8056 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8057 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8058 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8059 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8060 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8061 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8062 request additional information:
8063 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8064 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8065
8066 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8067 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8068 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8069 options.
8070
8071 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8072 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8073
8074 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8075 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8076 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8077
8078 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8079 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8080
8081 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8082 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8083 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8084 algorithm.
8085 [Steve Henson]
8086
8087 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8088 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8089 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8090
8091 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8092 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8093 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8094 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8095 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8096 included in OpenSSL.
8097 [Steve Henson]
8098
8099 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8100 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8101 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8102 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8103 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8104 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8105 [Bodo Moeller]
8106
8107 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8108 PKCS12 structure.
8109 [Steve Henson]
8110
8111 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8112 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8113 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8114 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8115 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8116 structure.
8117 [Steve Henson]
8118
8119 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8120 need initialising.
8121 [Steve Henson]
8122
8123 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8124 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8125 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8126 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8127 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8128 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8129 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8130 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8131 be maintained manually.
8132
8133 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8134 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8135 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8136 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8137 work because people forget to call this function]
8138 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8139 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8140 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8141 [Steve Henson]
8142
8143 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8144 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8145 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8146 should be discouraged from doing it.
8147 [Ben Laurie]
8148
8149 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8150 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8151 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8152 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8153 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8154 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8155 [Steve Henson]
8156
8157 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8158 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8159 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8160
8161 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8162 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8163 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8164
8165 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8166 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8167 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8168 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8169 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8170 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8171
8172 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8173 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8174 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8175
8176 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8177 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8178 and vice versa.
8179
8180 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8181 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8182 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8183 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8184 [Steve Henson]
8185
8186 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8187 [Steve Henson]
8188
8189 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8190 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8191 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8192 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8193 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8194 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8195 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8196 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8197 keys so we should be OK.
8198
8199 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8200 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8201 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8202 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8203 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8204 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8205 stay in the name of compatibility.
8206
8207 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8208 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8209 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8210
8211 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8212 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8213 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8214 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8215 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8216 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8217 supplied key).
8218 [Steve Henson]
8219
8220 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8221 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8222 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8223 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8224 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8225 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8226 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8227 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8228 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8229 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8230 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8231 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8232 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8233 [Steve Henson]
8234
8235 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8236 [Steve Henson]
8237
8238 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8239 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8240 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8241 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8242 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8243 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8244 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8245 openssl verify ss.pem
8246 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8247 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8248 is OK.
8249 [Steve Henson]
8250
8251 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8252 (and add it to external session representation).
8253 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8254 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8255 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8256 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8257 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8258 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8259 security holes.
8260 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8261
8262 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8263 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8264 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8265 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8266
8267 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8268 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8269 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8270 [Steve Henson]
8271
8272 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8273 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8274 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8275 code.
8276 [Steve Henson]
8277
8278 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8279 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8280 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8281
8282 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8283 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8284 certificate auxiliary information.
8285 [Steve Henson]
8286
8287 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8288 the 'enc' command.
8289 [Steve Henson]
8290
8291 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8292 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8293 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8294 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8295 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8296 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8297 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8298 [Richard Levitte]
8299
8300 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8301 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8302 [Steve Henson]
8303
8304 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8305 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8306 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8307 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8308 [Steve Henson]
8309
8310 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8311 [Steve Henson]
8312
8313 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8314 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8315 [Steve Henson]
8316
8317 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8318 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8319 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8320 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8321 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8322 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8323 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8324 using the new 'x509' options.
8325
8326 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8327 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8328 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8329 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8330 for all purposes.
8331 [Steve Henson]
8332
8333 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8334 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8335 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8336 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8337 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8338 [Mark Cox]
8339
8340 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8341 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8342 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8343 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8344 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8345 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8346 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8347 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8348 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8349 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8350 [Steve Henson]
8351
8352 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8353 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8354 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8355 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8356 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8357 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8358 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8359 [Steve Henson]
8360
8361 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8362 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8363 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8364 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8365 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8366 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8367 openssl.cnf for more info.
8368 [Steve Henson]
8369
8370 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8371 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8372 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8373 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8374 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8375 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8376 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8377 md should be large enough anyway.
8378 [Bodo Moeller]
8379
8380 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8381 for handling the random seed file.
8382
8383 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8384 ca,
8385 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8386 s_client,
8387 s_server,
8388 x509 (when signing).
8389 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8390 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8391 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8392
8393 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8394 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8395 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8396 that support '-rand'.
8397 [Bodo Moeller]
8398
8399 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8400 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8401 [Bodo Moeller]
8402
8403 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8404 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8405 [Bill Perry]
8406
8407 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8408 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8409 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8410 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8411 is suitable.
8412 [Steve Henson]
8413
8414 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8415 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8416 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8417 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8418 [Steve Henson]
8419
8420 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8421 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8422 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8423 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8424 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8425 print out all the purposes.
8426 [Steve Henson]
8427
8428 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8429 functions.
8430 [Steve Henson]
8431
8432 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8433 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8434 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8435 single function call.
8436 [Steve Henson]
8437
8438 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8439 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8440 [Andy Polyakov]
8441
8442 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8443 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8444 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8445 [Steve Henson]
8446
8447 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8448 when producing the local key id.
8449 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8450
8451 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8452 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8453 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8454 "server.pem".
8455 [Steve Henson]
8456
8457 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8458 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8459 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8460 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8461 [Steve Henson]
8462
8463 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8464 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8465 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8466 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8467
8468 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8469 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8470 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8471 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8472
8473 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8474 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8475 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8476 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8477 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8478 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8479 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8480 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8481 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8482 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8483 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8484 trivial: move one line.
8485 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8486
8487 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8488 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8489 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8490 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8491 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8492 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8493 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8494 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8495 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8496 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8497 with an event loop for example.
8498 [Steve Henson]
8499
8500 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8501 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8502 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8503 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8504 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8505 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8506 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8507 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8508 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8509 [Steve Henson]
8510
8511 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8512 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8513 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8514 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8515 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8516 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8517 [Steve Henson]
8518
8519 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8520 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8521 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8522 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8523
8524 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8525 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8526 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8527 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8528 key generation.
8529 [Steve Henson]
8530
8531 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8532 (still largely untested)
8533 [Bodo Moeller]
8534
8535 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8536 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8537 [Steve Henson]
8538
8539 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8540 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8541 [Steve Henson]
8542
8543 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8544 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8545 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8546 [Bodo Moeller]
8547
8548 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8549 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8550 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8551 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8552 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8553 [Steve Henson]
8554
8555 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8556 [Andy Polyakov]
8557
8558 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8559 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8560 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
8561 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
8562 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
8563 in ca.
8564 [Steve Henson]
8565
8566 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
8567 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
8568 1.OU="Unit name 1"
8569 2.OU="Unit name 2"
8570 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
8571 [Steve Henson]
8572
8573 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
8574 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
8575 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
8576 are otherwise ignored at present.
8577 [Steve Henson]
8578
8579 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
8580 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
8581 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
8582 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
8583 copied until the next read.
8584 [Steve Henson]
8585
8586 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
8587 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
8588 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
8589 [Steve Henson]
8590
8591 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
8592 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
8593 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
8594 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
8595 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
8596 associated functions.
8597 [Steve Henson]
8598
8599 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
8600 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
8601 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
8602 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
8603 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
8604 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
8605 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
8606 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
8607 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
8608 memory BIOs.
8609 [Steve Henson]
8610
8611 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
8612 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
8613 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
8614 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
8615 [Bodo Moeller]
8616
8617 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
8618 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
8619 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
8620 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
8621 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
8622 functionality.
8623 [Steve Henson]
8624
8625 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
8626 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
8627 under Win32.
8628 [Steve Henson]
8629
8630 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
8631 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
8632 extensions to be obtained and added.
8633 [Steve Henson]
8634
8635 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
8636 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
8637 [Bodo Moeller]
8638
8639 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
8640
8641 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8642 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8643
8644 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
8645 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
8646
8647 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
8648 program.
8649 [Steve Henson]
8650
8651 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
8652 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
8653 DH parameters contain its length).
8654
8655 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
8656 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
8657 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
8658 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
8659 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
8660 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
8661 utter importance to use
8662 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8663 or
8664 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
8665 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
8666 attacks may become possible!
8667 [Bodo Moeller]
8668
8669 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
8670 [Bodo Moeller]
8671
8672 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
8673 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
8674 [Steve Henson]
8675
8676 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
8677 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
8678 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
8679 or long name.
8680 [Steve Henson]
8681
8682 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
8683 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
8684 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
8685 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
8686 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
8687 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
8688 private key operations.
8689 [Steve Henson]
8690
8691 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
8692 [Andy Polyakov]
8693
8694 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
8695 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
8696 to
8697 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
8698 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
8699 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
8700 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
8701 the password callback is called.
8702 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
8703
8704 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
8705
8706 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
8707 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
8708 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
8709 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
8710 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
8711 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
8712 this will work.
8713
8714 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
8715 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
8716 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
8717 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
8718 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
8719 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
8720 [Bodo Moeller]
8721
8722 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
8723 [Andy Polyakov]
8724
8725 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
8726 delete an unused file.
8727 [Ulf Möller]
8728
8729 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
8730 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
8731 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
8732 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
8733 [Steve Henson]
8734
8735 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
8736 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
8737 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
8738 of an error.
8739 [Bodo Moeller]
8740
8741 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
8742 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
8743 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
8744
8745 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
8746 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
8747 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
8748 comparison" warnings.
8749 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
8750 [Steve Henson]
8751
8752 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
8753 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
8754 derived keys are printed to stderr.
8755 [Steve Henson]
8756
8757 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
8758 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
8759
8760 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
8761 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
8762
8763 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
8764 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
8765 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
8766
8767 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
8768 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
8769 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
8770 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
8771 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
8772 this bug.
8773 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
8774
8775 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
8776 The interface is as follows:
8777 Applications can use
8778 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
8779 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
8780 "off" is now the default.
8781 The library internally uses
8782 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
8783 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
8784 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
8785
8786 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
8787 even the default) are now avoided.
8788
8789 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
8790 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
8791 than just having a counter.
8792
8793 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
8794
8795 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
8796 extensions.
8797 [Bodo Moeller]
8798
8799 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
8800 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
8801 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
8802 Initial "mode" flags are:
8803
8804 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
8805 a single record has been written.
8806 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
8807 retries use the same buffer location.
8808 (But all of the contents must be
8809 copied!)
8810 [Bodo Moeller]
8811
8812 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
8813 worked.
8814
8815 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
8816 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
8817
8818 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
8819 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
8820 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
8821 [Steve Henson]
8822
8823 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
8824 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
8825 test programs.
8826 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
8827
8828 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
8829 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
8830 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
8831 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
8832 point to the end.
8833 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
8834 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
8835
8836 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
8837 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
8838 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
8839 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
8840 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
8841 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
8842 [Steve Henson]
8843
8844 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
8845 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
8846 necessary function names.
8847 [Steve Henson]
8848
8849 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
8850 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
8851 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
8852 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
8853 [Bodo Moeller]
8854
8855 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
8856 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
8857 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
8858 [Steve Henson]
8859
8860 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
8861 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
8862 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
8863 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
8864 such programs?)
8865 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
8866 need locks.
8867 [Bodo Moeller]
8868
8869 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
8870 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
8871 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
8872 [Bodo Moeller]
8873
8874 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
8875 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
8876 appropriate.
8877 [Bodo Moeller]
8878
8879 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
8880 for the encoded length.
8881 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
8882
8883 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
8884 [Steve Henson]
8885
8886 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
8887 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
8888 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
8889 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
8890 [Steve Henson]
8891
8892 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
8893 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
8894 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8895
8896 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
8897 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
8898 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
8899 unusual formatting.
8900 [Steve Henson]
8901
8902 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
8903 to use the new extension code.
8904 [Steve Henson]
8905
8906 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
8907 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
8908 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
8909 constant.
8910 [Steve Henson]
8911
8912 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
8913 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
8914 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
8915 [Bodo Moeller]
8916
8917 #if 0
8918 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
8919 [Ben Laurie]
8920 #else
8921 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
8922 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
8923 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
8924 #endif
8925
8926 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
8927 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
8928 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
8929 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
8930 [Ben Laurie]
8931
8932 *) DES library cleanups.
8933 [Ulf Möller]
8934
8935 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
8936 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
8937 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
8938 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
8939 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
8940 of v2.0.
8941 [Steve Henson]
8942
8943 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
8944 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
8945 [Bodo Moeller]
8946
8947 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
8948 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
8949 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
8950 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
8951 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
8952 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
8953 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
8954 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
8955 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
8956 [Steve Henson]
8957
8958 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
8959 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
8960 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
8961 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
8962 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
8963 value doesn't matter.
8964 [Steve Henson]
8965
8966 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
8967 support mutable.
8968 [Ben Laurie]
8969
8970 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
8971 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
8972 "linux-sparc" configuration.
8973 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
8974
8975 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
8976 [Ulf Möller]
8977
8978 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
8979 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
8980 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8981
8982 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
8983 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
8984
8985 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
8986 [Ben Laurie]
8987
8988 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
8989 [Ben Laurie]
8990
8991 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
8992 [Ben Laurie]
8993
8994 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
8995 [Bodo Moeller]
8996
8997
8998 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
8999
9000 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9001
9002 *) Updated some demos.
9003 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9004
9005 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9006 [Wu Zhigang]
9007
9008 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9009 [Steve Henson]
9010
9011 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9012 [Steve Henson]
9013
9014 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9015 instead of using a fixed path.
9016 [Bodo Moeller]
9017
9018 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9019 [Andy Polyakov]
9020
9021 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9022 [Richard Levitte]
9023
9024
9025 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9026
9027 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9028 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9029 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9030
9031 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9032 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9033 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9034 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9035 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9036 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9037 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9038 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9039 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9040 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9041 [Steve Henson]
9042
9043 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9044 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9045 [Steve Henson]
9046
9047 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9048 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9049 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9050 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9051 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9052
9053 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9054 [Bodo Moeller]
9055
9056 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9057 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9058 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9059 [Steve Henson]
9060
9061 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9062 [Ben Laurie]
9063
9064 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9065 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9066 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9067 key elements as negative integers.
9068 [Steve Henson]
9069
9070 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9071 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9072
9073 *) VMS support.
9074 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9075
9076 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9077 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9078 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9079 [Steve Henson]
9080
9081 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9082 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9083 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9084 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9085 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9086 [Bodo Moeller]
9087
9088 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9089 [Ulf Möller]
9090
9091 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9092 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9093 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9094 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9095
9096 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9097 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9098 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9099
9100 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9101 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9102 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9103 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9104 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9105 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9106 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9107 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9108 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9109
9110 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9111 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9112 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9113 does not influence s as it used to.
9114
9115 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9116 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9117 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9118 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9119 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9120 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9121 [Bodo Moeller]
9122
9123 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9124 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9125 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9126 key type.
9127 [Steve Henson]
9128
9129 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9130 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9131 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9132 and 'x509').
9133 [Steve Henson]
9134
9135 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9136 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9137 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9138 extension option.
9139 [Steve Henson]
9140
9141 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9142 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9143 [Ben Laurie]
9144
9145 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9146 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9147
9148 *) Support Mingw32.
9149 [Ulf Möller]
9150
9151 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9152 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9153
9154 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9155 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9156
9157 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9158 [Ulf Möller]
9159
9160 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9161 [Anonymous]
9162
9163 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9164 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9165
9166 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9167 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9168 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9169 DER-encoded.)
9170 [Bodo Moeller]
9171
9172 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9173 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9174 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9175 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9176 now it really counts the depth.
9177 [Bodo Moeller]
9178
9179 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9180 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9181 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9182 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9183 didn't match the private key).
9184
9185 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9186 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9187 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9188 [Bodo Moeller]
9189
9190 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9191 [Ulf Möller]
9192
9193 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9194 David Harris.
9195 [Bodo Moeller]
9196
9197 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9198 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9199 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9200 [Bodo Moeller]
9201
9202 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9203 [Bodo Moeller]
9204
9205 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9206 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9207 such as /usr/local/bin.
9208 [Bodo Moeller]
9209
9210 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9211 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9212
9213 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9214 [Ulf Möller]
9215
9216 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9217 extension adding in x509 utility.
9218 [Steve Henson]
9219
9220 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9221 [Ulf Möller]
9222
9223 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9224 prototypes.
9225 [Steve Henson]
9226
9227 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9228 [Ulf Möller]
9229
9230 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9231 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9232 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9233 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9234 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9235 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9236 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9237 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9238 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9239 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9240 [Steve Henson]
9241
9242 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9243 [Bodo Moeller]
9244
9245 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9246 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9247 [Bodo Moeller]
9248
9249 *) Fix some race conditions.
9250 [Bodo Moeller]
9251
9252 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9253 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9254 [Steve Henson]
9255
9256 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9257 [Ulf Möller]
9258
9259 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9260 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9261 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9262 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9263
9264 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9265 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9266
9267 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9268 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9269 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9270
9271 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9272 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9273
9274 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9275 [Ulf Möller]
9276
9277 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9278 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9279
9280 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9281 [Ulf Möller]
9282
9283 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9284 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9285
9286 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9287 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9288 [Steve Henson]
9289
9290 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9291 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9292 [Ben Laurie]
9293
9294 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9295 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9296 [Steve Henson]
9297
9298 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9299 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9300 [Steve Henson]
9301
9302 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9303 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9304 [Steve Henson]
9305
9306 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9307 support typesafe stack.
9308 [Steve Henson]
9309
9310 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9311 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9312
9313 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9314 old X509V3 handling code.
9315 [Steve Henson]
9316
9317 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9318 [Ulf Möller]
9319
9320 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9321 [Bodo Moeller]
9322
9323 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9324 [Ben Laurie]
9325
9326 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9327 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9328
9329 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9330 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9331 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9332 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9333 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9334 [Ben Laurie]
9335
9336 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9337 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9338 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9339 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9340 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9341
9342 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9343 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9344 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9345 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9346
9347 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9348 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9349 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9350 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9351
9352 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9353 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9354 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9355 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9356 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9357 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9358 [Bodo Moeller]
9359
9360 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9361 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9362 [Bodo Moeller]
9363
9364 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9365 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9366 [Ulf Möller]
9367
9368 *) Tweaks to Configure
9369 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9370
9371 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9372 yet...
9373 [Steve Henson]
9374
9375 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9376 [Ulf Möller]
9377
9378 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9379 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9380 [Ulf Möller]
9381
9382 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9383 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9384 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9385 [Bodo Moeller]
9386
9387 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9388 [Bodo Moeller]
9389
9390 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9391 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9392 [Steve Henson]
9393
9394 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9395 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9396 to library startup routines.
9397 [Steve Henson]
9398
9399 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9400 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9401 codes along the way.
9402 [Steve Henson]
9403
9404 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9405 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9406 objects to objects.h
9407 [Steve Henson]
9408
9409 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9410 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9411 [Steve Henson]
9412
9413 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9414 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9415
9416 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9417 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9418 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9419
9420 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9421 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9422 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9423
9424 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9425 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9426 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9427
9428
9429 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9430
9431 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9432 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9433 [Ben Laurie]
9434
9435 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9436 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9437 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9438 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9439 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9440
9441 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9442 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9443 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9444 document.
9445 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9446
9447 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9448 Malloc, Free.
9449 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9450
9451 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9452 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9453
9454 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9455 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9456 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9457 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9458
9459 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9460 [Ben Laurie]
9461
9462 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9463 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9464 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9465 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9466 [Steve Henson]
9467
9468 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9469 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9470 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9471 [Steve Henson]
9472
9473 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9474 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9475 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9476 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9477 installed as `perl').
9478 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9479
9480 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9481 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9482
9483 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9484 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9485 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9486 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9487 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9488 [Steve Henson]
9489
9490 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9491 [Ben Laurie]
9492
9493 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9494 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9495 is horrible: I feel ill....
9496 [Steve Henson]
9497
9498 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9499 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9500 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9501 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9502 [Steve Henson]
9503
9504 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9505 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9506
9507 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9508 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9509 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9510 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9511
9512 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9513 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9514 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9515 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9516 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9517 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9518 openssl_bio.xs.
9519 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9520
9521 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9522 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9523
9524 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9525 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9526
9527 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9528 [Ben Laurie]
9529
9530 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9531 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9532 in CRLs.
9533 [Steve Henson]
9534
9535 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9536 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9537 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9538 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9539 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9540 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9541 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9542 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9543 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9544 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9545 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9546
9547 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9548 [Ben Laurie]
9549
9550 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9551 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9552 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9553 for linking it into DSOs.
9554 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9555
9556 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9557 Fixed.
9558 [Ben Laurie]
9559
9560 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
9561 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
9562 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
9563 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
9564 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
9565 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9566
9567 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
9568 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
9569 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
9570 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
9571 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
9572 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
9573 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9574
9575 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
9576 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
9577 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
9578 encryption.
9579 [Ben Laurie]
9580
9581 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
9582 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
9583 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
9584 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
9585 [Steve Henson]
9586
9587 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
9588 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
9589 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
9590 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
9591 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
9592 field as blank.
9593 [Steve Henson]
9594
9595 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
9596 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
9597 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
9598 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
9599 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9600
9601 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
9602 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
9603 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9604
9605 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
9606 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
9607
9608 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
9609 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
9610 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
9611 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
9612 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
9613 [Steve Henson]
9614
9615 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
9616 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
9617 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
9618 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
9619 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
9620 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
9621 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
9622 [Ben Laurie]
9623
9624 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
9625 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
9626 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
9627 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
9628 [Ben Laurie]
9629
9630 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
9631 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
9632
9633 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
9634 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
9635 [Steve Henson]
9636
9637 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
9638 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
9639 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
9640 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
9641 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
9642 (e.g. s_server).
9643 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
9644 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
9645 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
9646 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
9647 no way to reconfigure them.
9648 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
9649 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
9650 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
9651 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
9652 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
9653 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9654
9655 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
9656 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
9657 recognized by the users.
9658 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9659
9660 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
9661 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
9662 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
9663 already masked variable.
9664 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9665
9666 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
9667 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9668
9669 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
9670 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
9671 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
9672 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9673
9674 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
9675 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
9676 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9677
9678 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
9679 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
9680 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
9681 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
9682 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
9683 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
9684 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
9685 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
9686 now, too.
9687 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9688
9689 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
9690 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
9691 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9692
9693 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
9694 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
9695 config file.
9696 [Steve Henson]
9697
9698 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
9699 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9700
9701 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
9702 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
9703 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
9704 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
9705 [Ben Laurie]
9706
9707 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
9708 [Steve Henson]
9709
9710 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
9711 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9712
9713 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
9714 [Ben Laurie]
9715
9716 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
9717 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
9718 [Steve Henson]
9719
9720 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
9721 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
9722 [Steve Henson]
9723
9724 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
9725 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
9726 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
9727 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
9728 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
9729 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
9730 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
9731 Ben Laurie]
9732
9733 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
9734 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9735
9736 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
9737 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
9738 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
9739 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
9740 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9741
9742 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
9743 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
9744 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
9745 [Steve Henson]
9746
9747 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
9748 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
9749 an example.
9750 [Steve Henson]
9751
9752 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
9753 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
9754 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9755
9756 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
9757 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
9758 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
9759 build instructions.
9760 [Steve Henson]
9761
9762 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
9763 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
9764 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
9765 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
9766 [Steve Henson]
9767
9768 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
9769 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
9770 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
9771 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
9772 [Ben Laurie]
9773
9774 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
9775 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
9776 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
9777 so it wasn't spotted.
9778 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
9779
9780 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
9781 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
9782 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
9783 vectors if you have them.
9784 [Ben Laurie]
9785
9786 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
9787 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
9788 [Ben Laurie]
9789
9790 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
9791 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
9792 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
9793 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
9794 If you do a:
9795 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
9796 it will update them.
9797 [Steve Henson]
9798
9799 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
9800 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
9801 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
9802 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
9803 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
9804 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
9805 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
9806 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9807
9808 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
9809 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
9810 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
9811 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
9812 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
9813 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
9814 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
9815 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
9816 the crypto/md/ stuff).
9817 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9818
9819 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
9820 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
9821 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
9822 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
9823 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
9824 [Steve Henson]
9825
9826 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
9827 INTEGER code.
9828 [Steve Henson]
9829
9830 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
9831 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9832
9833 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
9834 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9835
9836 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
9837 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
9838 [Ben Laurie]
9839
9840 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
9841 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
9842
9843 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
9844 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
9845
9846 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
9847 [Steve Henson]
9848
9849 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
9850 few typos.
9851 [Steve Henson]
9852
9853 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
9854 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
9855 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
9856 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
9857
9858 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9859 [Steve Henson]
9860
9861 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
9862 [Steve Henson]
9863
9864 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
9865 [Steve Henson]
9866
9867 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
9868 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
9869 [Steve Henson]
9870
9871 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
9872 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
9873 CA extensions.
9874 [Steve Henson]
9875
9876 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
9877 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
9878 [Steve Henson]
9879
9880 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
9881 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
9882 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
9883 [Steve Henson]
9884
9885 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
9886 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
9887 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
9888 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
9889 properly to be processed.
9890 [Steve Henson]
9891
9892 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
9893 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
9894 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
9895 [Ben Laurie]
9896
9897 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
9898 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
9899
9900 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
9901 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
9902 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
9903 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
9904 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
9905 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
9906 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
9907 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
9908 or delete all the .err files.
9909 [Steve Henson]
9910
9911 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
9912 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
9913 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
9914 to regenerate it if needed.
9915 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
9916 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
9917
9918 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
9919 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9920
9921 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
9922 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
9923 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
9924 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
9925 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
9926 [Steve Henson]
9927
9928 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
9929 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9930
9931 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
9932 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9933
9934 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
9935 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
9936 error, but didn't set one).
9937 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9938
9939 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
9940 [Ben Laurie]
9941
9942 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
9943 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
9944 [Steve Henson]
9945
9946 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
9947 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
9948
9949 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
9950 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
9951 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
9952 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
9953 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
9954 OID is not part of the table.
9955 [Steve Henson]
9956
9957 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
9958 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
9959 [Ben Laurie]
9960
9961 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
9962 [Ben Laurie]
9963
9964 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
9965 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
9966 was "1234").
9967 [Steve Henson]
9968
9969 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
9970 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
9971
9972 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
9973 NULL pointers.
9974 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9975
9976 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
9977 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9978
9979 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
9980 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
9981
9982 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
9983 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
9984
9985 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
9986 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
9987 [Ben Laurie]
9988
9989 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
9990 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
9991 [Steve Henson]
9992
9993 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
9994 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9995
9996 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
9997 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9998
9999 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10000 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10001
10002 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10003 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10004
10005 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10006 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10007 unused in the certificate verification process.
10008 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10009
10010 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10011 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10012 [Steve Henson]
10013
10014 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10015 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10016 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10017
10018 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10019 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10020 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10021 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10022 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10023
10024 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10025 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10026 [Steve Henson]
10027
10028 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10029 [Steve Henson]
10030
10031 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10032 [Paul Sutton]
10033
10034 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10035 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10036
10037 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10038 [Ben Laurie]
10039
10040 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10041 [Ben Laurie]
10042
10043 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10044 [Ben Laurie]
10045
10046 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10047 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10048 other error libraries.
10049 [Steve Henson]
10050
10051 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10052 [Steve Henson]
10053
10054 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10055 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10056 be read in.
10057 [Steve Henson]
10058
10059 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10060 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10061 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10062 the new set of documenation files.
10063 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10064
10065 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10066 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10067 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10068 number of arguments.
10069 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10070
10071 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10072 [Ben Laurie]
10073
10074 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10075 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10076 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10077
10078 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10079 [Ben Laurie]
10080
10081 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10082 nextstep
10083 ncr-scde
10084 unixware-2.0
10085 unixware-2.0-pentium
10086 sco5-cc.
10087 [Ben Laurie]
