10
11 *) OCSP Status Request extension unbounded memory growth
12
13 A malicious client can send an excessively large OCSP Status Request
14 extension. If that client continually requests renegotiation, sending a
15 large OCSP Status Request extension each time, then there will be unbounded
16 memory growth on the server. This will eventually lead to a Denial Of
17 Service attack through memory exhaustion. Servers with a default
18 configuration are vulnerable even if they do not support OCSP. Builds using
19 the "no-ocsp" build time option are not affected.

22 (CVE-2016-6304)
23 [Matt Caswell]
24
25 *) In order to mitigate the SWEET32 attack, the DES ciphers were moved from
26 HIGH to MEDIUM.

30 (CVE-2016-2183)
31 [Rich Salz]
32
33 *) OOB write in MDC2_Update()
34
35 An overflow can occur in MDC2_Update() either if called directly or
36 through the EVP_DigestUpdate() function using MDC2. If an attacker
37 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous
38 call to EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check
39 can overflow resulting in a heap corruption.
40
41 The amount of data needed is comparable to SIZE_MAX which is impractical
42 on most platforms.
43
44 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
45 (CVE-2016-6303)
46 [Stephen Henson]
47
48 *) Malformed SHA512 ticket DoS
49
50 If a server uses SHA512 for TLS session ticket HMAC it is vulnerable to a
51 DoS attack where a malformed ticket will result in an OOB read which will
52 ultimately crash.
53
54 The use of SHA512 in TLS session tickets is comparatively rare as it requires
55 a custom server callback and ticket lookup mechanism.
56
57 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
58 (CVE-2016-6302)
59 [Stephen Henson]
60
61 *) OOB write in BN_bn2dec()
62
63 The function BN_bn2dec() does not check the return value of BN_div_word().
64 This can cause an OOB write if an application uses this function with an
65 overly large BIGNUM. This could be a problem if an overly large certificate
66 or CRL is printed out from an untrusted source. TLS is not affected because
67 record limits will reject an oversized certificate before it is parsed.
68
69 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
70 (CVE-2016-2182)
71 [Stephen Henson]
72
73 *) OOB read in TS_OBJ_print_bio()
74
75 The function TS_OBJ_print_bio() misuses OBJ_obj2txt(): the return value is
76 the total length the OID text representation would use and not the amount
77 of data written. This will result in OOB reads when large OIDs are
78 presented.
79
80 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
81 (CVE-2016-2180)
82 [Stephen Henson]
83
84 *) Pointer arithmetic undefined behaviour
85
86 Avoid some undefined pointer arithmetic
87
88 A common idiom in the codebase is to check limits in the following manner:
89 "p + len > limit"
90
91 Where "p" points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and
92 limit == p + SIZE
93
94 "len" here could be from some externally supplied data (e.g. from a TLS
95 message).
96
97 The rules of C pointer arithmetic are such that "p + len" is only well
98 defined where len <= SIZE. Therefore the above idiom is actually
99 undefined behaviour.
100
101 For example this could cause problems if some malloc implementation
102 provides an address for "p" such that "p + len" actually overflows for
103 values of len that are too big and therefore p + len < limit.
104
105 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken
106 (CVE-2016-2177)
107 [Matt Caswell]
108
109 *) Constant time flag not preserved in DSA signing
110
111 Operations in the DSA signing algorithm should run in constant time in
112 order to avoid side channel attacks. A flaw in the OpenSSL DSA
113 implementation means that a non-constant time codepath is followed for
114 certain operations. This has been demonstrated through a cache-timing
115 attack to be sufficient for an attacker to recover the private DSA key.
116
117 This issue was reported by César Pereida (Aalto University), Billy Brumley
118 (Tampere University of Technology), and Yuval Yarom (The University of
119 Adelaide and NICTA).
120 (CVE-2016-2178)
121 [César Pereida]
122
123 *) DTLS buffered message DoS
124
125 In a DTLS connection where handshake messages are delivered out-of-order
126 those messages that OpenSSL is not yet ready to process will be buffered
127 for later use. Under certain circumstances, a flaw in the logic means that
128 those messages do not get removed from the buffer even though the handshake
129 has been completed. An attacker could force up to approx. 15 messages to
130 remain in the buffer when they are no longer required. These messages will
131 be cleared when the DTLS connection is closed. The default maximum size for
132 a message is 100k. Therefore the attacker could force an additional 1500k
133 to be consumed per connection. By opening many simulataneous connections an
134 attacker could cause a DoS attack through memory exhaustion.
135
136 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Quan Luo.
137 (CVE-2016-2179)
138 [Matt Caswell]
139
140 *) DTLS replay protection DoS
141
142 A flaw in the DTLS replay attack protection mechanism means that records
143 that arrive for future epochs update the replay protection "window" before
144 the MAC for the record has been validated. This could be exploited by an
145 attacker by sending a record for the next epoch (which does not have to
146 decrypt or have a valid MAC), with a very large sequence number. This means
147 that all subsequent legitimate packets are dropped causing a denial of
148 service for a specific DTLS connection.
149
150 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by the OCAP audit team.
151 (CVE-2016-2181)
152 [Matt Caswell]
153
154 *) Certificate message OOB reads
155
156 In OpenSSL 1.0.2 and earlier some missing message length checks can result
157 in OOB reads of up to 2 bytes beyond an allocated buffer. There is a
158 theoretical DoS risk but this has not been observed in practice on common
159 platforms.
160
161 The messages affected are client certificate, client certificate request
162 and server certificate. As a result the attack can only be performed
163 against a client or a server which enables client authentication.
164
165 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Shi Lei (Gear Team, Qihoo 360 Inc.)
166 (CVE-2016-6306)
167 [Stephen Henson]
168
169 Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.0.2h [3 May 2016]
170
171 *) Prevent padding oracle in AES-NI CBC MAC check
172
173 A MITM attacker can use a padding oracle attack to decrypt traffic
174 when the connection uses an AES CBC cipher and the server support
175 AES-NI.
176
177 This issue was introduced as part of the fix for Lucky 13 padding
178 attack (CVE-2013-0169). The padding check was rewritten to be in
179 constant time by making sure that always the same bytes are read and
180 compared against either the MAC or padding bytes. But it no longer
181 checked that there was enough data to have both the MAC and padding
182 bytes.
183
184 This issue was reported by Juraj Somorovsky using TLS-Attacker.
185 (CVE-2016-2107)
186 [Kurt Roeckx]
187
188 *) Fix EVP_EncodeUpdate overflow
189
190 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function which is used for
191 Base64 encoding of binary data. If an attacker is able to supply very large
192 amounts of input data then a length check can overflow resulting in a heap
193 corruption.
194
195 Internally to OpenSSL the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function is primarly used by
196 the PEM_write_bio* family of functions. These are mainly used within the
197 OpenSSL command line applications, so any application which processes data
198 from an untrusted source and outputs it as a PEM file should be considered
199 vulnerable to this issue. User applications that call these APIs directly
200 with large amounts of untrusted data may also be vulnerable.
201
202 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
203 (CVE-2016-2105)
204 [Matt Caswell]
205
206 *) Fix EVP_EncryptUpdate overflow
207
208 An overflow can occur in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function. If an attacker
209 is able to supply very large amounts of input data after a previous call to
210 EVP_EncryptUpdate() with a partial block then a length check can overflow
211 resulting in a heap corruption. Following an analysis of all OpenSSL
212 internal usage of the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function all usage is one of two
213 forms. The first form is where the EVP_EncryptUpdate() call is known to be
214 the first called function after an EVP_EncryptInit(), and therefore that
215 specific call must be safe. The second form is where the length passed to
216 EVP_EncryptUpdate() can be seen from the code to be some small value and
217 therefore there is no possibility of an overflow. Since all instances are
218 one of these two forms, it is believed that there can be no overflows in
219 internal code due to this problem. It should be noted that
220 EVP_DecryptUpdate() can call EVP_EncryptUpdate() in certain code paths.
221 Also EVP_CipherUpdate() is a synonym for EVP_EncryptUpdate(). All instances
222 of these calls have also been analysed too and it is believed there are no
223 instances in internal usage where an overflow could occur.
224
225 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
226 (CVE-2016-2106)
227 [Matt Caswell]
228
229 *) Prevent ASN.1 BIO excessive memory allocation
230
231 When ASN.1 data is read from a BIO using functions such as d2i_CMS_bio()
232 a short invalid encoding can casuse allocation of large amounts of memory
233 potentially consuming excessive resources or exhausting memory.
234
235 Any application parsing untrusted data through d2i BIO functions is
236 affected. The memory based functions such as d2i_X509() are *not* affected.
237 Since the memory based functions are used by the TLS library, TLS
238 applications are not affected.
239
240 This issue was reported by Brian Carpenter.
241 (CVE-2016-2109)
242 [Stephen Henson]
243
244 *) EBCDIC overread
245
246 ASN1 Strings that are over 1024 bytes can cause an overread in applications
247 using the X509_NAME_oneline() function on EBCDIC systems. This could result
248 in arbitrary stack data being returned in the buffer.
249
250 This issue was reported by Guido Vranken.
251 (CVE-2016-2176)
252 [Matt Caswell]
253
254 *) Modify behavior of ALPN to invoke callback after SNI/servername
255 callback, such that updates to the SSL_CTX affect ALPN.
256 [Todd Short]
257
258 *) Remove LOW from the DEFAULT cipher list. This removes singles DES from the
259 default.
260 [Kurt Roeckx]
261
262 *) Only remove the SSLv2 methods with the no-ssl2-method option. When the
263 methods are enabled and ssl2 is disabled the methods return NULL.
264 [Kurt Roeckx]
265
266 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [1 Mar 2016]
267
268 * Disable weak ciphers in SSLv3 and up in default builds of OpenSSL.
269 Builds that are not configured with "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers" will not
270 provide any "EXPORT" or "LOW" strength ciphers.
271 [Viktor Dukhovni]
272
273 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
274 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
275 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
276 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
277 will need to explicitly call either of:
278
279 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
280 or
281 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
282
283 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
284 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
285 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
286 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
287 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
288 (CVE-2016-0800)
289 [Viktor Dukhovni]
290
291 *) Fix a double-free in DSA code
292
293 A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private
294 keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications
295 that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is
296 considered rare.
297
298 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley(Google/BoringSSL) using
299 libFuzzer.
300 (CVE-2016-0705)
301 [Stephen Henson]
302
303 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
304
305 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
306
307 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
308 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
309 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
310 is configured.
311
312 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
313 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
314 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
315 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
316 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
317 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
318 that of a valid user.
319 (CVE-2016-0798)
320 [Emilia Käsper]
321
322 *) Fix BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn NULL pointer deref/heap corruption
323
324 In the BN_hex2bn function the number of hex digits is calculated using an
325 int value |i|. Later |bn_expand| is called with a value of |i * 4|. For
326 large values of |i| this can result in |bn_expand| not allocating any
327 memory because |i * 4| is negative. This can leave the internal BIGNUM data
328 field as NULL leading to a subsequent NULL ptr deref. For very large values
329 of |i|, the calculation |i * 4| could be a positive value smaller than |i|.
330 In this case memory is allocated to the internal BIGNUM data field, but it
331 is insufficiently sized leading to heap corruption. A similar issue exists
332 in BN_dec2bn. This could have security consequences if BN_hex2bn/BN_dec2bn
333 is ever called by user applications with very large untrusted hex/dec data.
334 This is anticipated to be a rare occurrence.
335
336 All OpenSSL internal usage of these functions use data that is not expected
337 to be untrusted, e.g. config file data or application command line
338 arguments. If user developed applications generate config file data based
339 on untrusted data then it is possible that this could also lead to security
340 consequences. This is also anticipated to be rare.
341
342 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Guido Vranken.
343 (CVE-2016-0797)
344 [Matt Caswell]
345
346 *) Fix memory issues in BIO_*printf functions
347
348 The internal |fmtstr| function used in processing a "%s" format string in
349 the BIO_*printf functions could overflow while calculating the length of a
350 string and cause an OOB read when printing very long strings.
351
352 Additionally the internal |doapr_outch| function can attempt to write to an
353 OOB memory location (at an offset from the NULL pointer) in the event of a
354 memory allocation failure. In 1.0.2 and below this could be caused where
355 the size of a buffer to be allocated is greater than INT_MAX. E.g. this
356 could be in processing a very long "%s" format string. Memory leaks can
357 also occur.
358
359 The first issue may mask the second issue dependent on compiler behaviour.
360 These problems could enable attacks where large amounts of untrusted data
361 is passed to the BIO_*printf functions. If applications use these functions
362 in this way then they could be vulnerable. OpenSSL itself uses these
363 functions when printing out human-readable dumps of ASN.1 data. Therefore
364 applications that print this data could be vulnerable if the data is from
365 untrusted sources. OpenSSL command line applications could also be
366 vulnerable where they print out ASN.1 data, or if untrusted data is passed
367 as command line arguments.
368
369 Libssl is not considered directly vulnerable. Additionally certificates etc
370 received via remote connections via libssl are also unlikely to be able to
371 trigger these issues because of message size limits enforced within libssl.
372
373 This issue was reported to OpenSSL Guido Vranken.
374 (CVE-2016-0799)
375 [Matt Caswell]
376
377 *) Side channel attack on modular exponentiation
378
379 A side-channel attack was found which makes use of cache-bank conflicts on
380 the Intel Sandy-Bridge microarchitecture which could lead to the recovery
381 of RSA keys. The ability to exploit this issue is limited as it relies on
382 an attacker who has control of code in a thread running on the same
383 hyper-threaded core as the victim thread which is performing decryptions.
384
385 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Yuval Yarom, The University of
386 Adelaide and NICTA, Daniel Genkin, Technion and Tel Aviv University, and
387 Nadia Heninger, University of Pennsylvania with more information at
388 http://cachebleed.info.
389 (CVE-2016-0702)
390 [Andy Polyakov]
391
392 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
393 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
394 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
395 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
396 [Emilia Käsper]
397
398 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
399
400 *) DH small subgroups
401
402 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
403 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
404 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
405 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
406 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
407 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
408 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
409 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
410 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
411 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
412
413 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
414 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
415 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
416 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
417 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
418
419 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
420 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
421 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
422 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
423
424 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
425 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
426
427 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
428 (CVE-2016-0701)
429 [Matt Caswell]
430
431 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
432
433 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
434 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
435 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
436 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
437
438 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
439 and Sebastian Schinzel.
440 (CVE-2015-3197)
441 [Viktor Dukhovni]
442
443 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 1024 bits.
444 [Kurt Roeckx]
445
446 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
447
448 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
449
450 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
451 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
452 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
453 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
454 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
455 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
456 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
457 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
458 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
459 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
460 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
461 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.
462
463 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
464 (CVE-2015-3193)
465 [Andy Polyakov]
466
467 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
468
469 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
470 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
471 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
472 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
473 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
474 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
475 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
476 authentication.
477
478 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
479 (CVE-2015-3194)
480 [Stephen Henson]
481
482 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
483
484 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
485 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
486 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
487 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
488
489 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
490 libFuzzer.
491 (CVE-2015-3195)
492 [Stephen Henson]
493
494 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
495 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
496 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
497 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
498 [Emilia Käsper]
499
500 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,

504 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
505
506 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
507
508 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
509 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
510 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
511 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
512 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
513 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
514
515 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
516 (Google/BoringSSL).
517 (CVE-2015-1793)
518 [Matt Caswell]
519
520 *) Race condition handling PSK identify hint
521
522 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
523 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
524 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
525 identify hint data.
526 (CVE-2015-3196)
527 [Stephen Henson]
528
529 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
530
531 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
532 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
533 restored.
534
535 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
536
537 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
538
539 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
540 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
541 field.
542
543 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
544 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
545 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
546 client authentication enabled.
547
548 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
549 (CVE-2015-1788)
550 [Andy Polyakov]
551
552 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
553
554 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
555 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
556 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
557 time string.
558
559 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
560 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
561 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
562 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
563 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
564 callbacks.
565
566 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
567 independently by Hanno Böck.
568 (CVE-2015-1789)
569 [Emilia Käsper]
570
571 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
572
573 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
574 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
575 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
576
577 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
578 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
579 servers are not affected.
580
581 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
582 (CVE-2015-1790)
583 [Emilia Käsper]
584
585 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
586
587 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
588 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
589 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
590 the CMS code.
591 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
592 (CVE-2015-1792)
593 [Stephen Henson]
594
595 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
596
597 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
598 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
599 a double free of the ticket data.
600 (CVE-2015-1791)
601 [Matt Caswell]
602
603 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
604 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
605 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
606 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
607 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
608 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
609 [Matt Caswell]
610
611 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
612 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
613 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
614 [Emilia Kasper]
615
616 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 768 bits.
617 [Kurt Roeckx and Emilia Kasper]
618
619 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
620
621 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
622
623 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
624 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
625 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
626
627 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
628 University.
629 (CVE-2015-0291)
630 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
631
632 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
633
634 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
635 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
636 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
637 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
638 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
639 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
640 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
641 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
642
643 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
644 (CVE-2015-0290)
645 [Matt Caswell]
646
647 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
648
649 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
650 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
651 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
652 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
653 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
654 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
655 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
656 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
657 server.
658
659 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
660 (CVE-2015-0207)
661 [Matt Caswell]
662
663 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
664
665 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
666 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
667 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
668 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
669 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
670 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
671 (CVE-2015-0286)
672 [Stephen Henson]
673
674 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
675
676 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
677 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
678 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
679 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
680 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
681 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
682 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
683
684 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
685 (CVE-2015-0208)
686 [Stephen Henson]
687
688 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
689
690 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
691 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
692 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
693
694 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
695 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
696 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
697 not affected.
698 (CVE-2015-0287)
699 [Stephen Henson]
700
701 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
702
703 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
704 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
705 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
706
707 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
708 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
709 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
710
711 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
712 (CVE-2015-0289)
713 [Emilia Käsper]
714
715 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
716
717 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
718 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
719 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
720
721 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
722 (OpenSSL development team).
723 (CVE-2015-0293)
724 [Emilia Käsper]
725
726 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
727
728 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
729 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
730 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
731 (CVE-2015-1787)
732 [Matt Caswell]
733
734 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
735
736 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
737 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
738 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
739 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
740 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
741 SSL_client_methodv23)
742 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
743 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
744
745 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
746 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
747 output may be predictable.
748
749 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
750 succeed on an unpatched platform:
751
752 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
753 (CVE-2015-0285)
754 [Matt Caswell]
755
756 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
757
758 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
759 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
760 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
761 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
762 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
763 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
764
765 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
766 commit 517073cd4b.
767 (CVE-2015-0209)
768 [Matt Caswell]
769
770 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
771
772 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
773 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
774
775 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
776 (CVE-2015-0288)
777 [Stephen Henson]
778
779 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
780 [Kurt Roeckx]
781
782 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
783
784 *) Change RSA and DH/DSA key generation apps to generate 2048-bit
785 keys by default.
786 [Kurt Roeckx]
787
788 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
789 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
790 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
791 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
792 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
793 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
794 [Andy Polyakov]
795
796 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
797 (other platforms pending).
798 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
799
800 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
801 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
802 [Rob Stradling]
803
804 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
805 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
806 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
807 [Bodo Moeller]
808
809 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
810 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
811 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
812 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
813 [Andy Polyakov]
814
815 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
816 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
817
818 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
819 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
820 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
821 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
822 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
823
824 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
825 [Andy Polyakov]
826
827 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
828 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
829 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
830 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
831
832 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
833 RSAZ.
834 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
835
836 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
837 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
838 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
839 for TLS encrypt.
840
841 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
842 [Andy Polyakov]
843
844 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
845 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
846 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
847 [Steve Henson]
848
849 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
850 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
851 [Steve Henson]
852
853 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
854 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
855 [Steve Henson]
856
857 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
858 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
859 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
860 algorithms and include tests cases.
861 [Steve Henson]
862
863 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
864 structure.
865 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
866
867 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
868 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
869 [Steve Henson]
870
871 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
872 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
873 summary of the connection parameters.
874 [Steve Henson]
875
876 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
877 of connection parameters.
878 [Steve Henson]
879
880 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
881 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
882
883 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
884 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
885 [Steve Henson]
886
887 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
888 [Steve Henson]
889
890 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
891 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
892 [Steve Henson]
893
894 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
895 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
896 [Steve Henson]
897
898 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
899 certificates.
900 [Steve Henson]
901
902 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
903 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
904 CRLs using the OCSP API.
905 [Steve Henson]
906
907 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
908 [Steve Henson]
909
910 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
911 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
912 [Steve Henson]
913
914 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
915 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
916 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
917 tracing.
918 [Steve Henson]
919
920 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
921 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
922 [Steve Henson]
923
924 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
925 OID NID.
926 [Steve Henson]
927
928 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
929 client to OpenSSL.
930 [Steve Henson]
931
932 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
933 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
934 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
935 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
936 [Steve Henson]
937
938 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
939 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
940 [Steve Henson]
941
942 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
943 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
944 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
945 comparison.
946 [Steve Henson]
947
948 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
949 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
950 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
951 use the certificate.
952 [Steve Henson]
953
954 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
955 [Steve Henson]
956
957 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
958 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
959 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
960 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
961 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
962 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
963 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
964
965 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
966 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
967
968 [Steve Henson]
969
970 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
971 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
972 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
973 [Steve Henson]
974
975 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
976 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
977 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
978 supported signature algorithms.
979 [Steve Henson]
980
981 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
982 [Steve Henson]
983
984 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
985 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
986 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
987 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
988 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
989 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
990 certificate and specify the whole chain.
991 [Steve Henson]
992
993 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
994 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
995 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
996 to have similar checks in it.
997
998 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
999 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
1000 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
1001 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
1002 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
1003 [Steve Henson]
1004
1005 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
1006 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
1007 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
1008 shared signature algorithms.
1009 [Steve Henson]
1010
1011 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
1012 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
1013 to support them.
1014 [Steve Henson]
1015
1016 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
1017 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
1018 it couldn't be removed.
1019 [Steve Henson]
1020
1021 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
1022 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
1025 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
1026 functions. Add manual page.
1027 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
1028
1029 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
1030 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
1031 a certificate.
1032 [Steve Henson]
1033
1034 *) Fix OCSP checking.
1035 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
1036
1037 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
1038 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
1039 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
1040 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
1041 utility) or reject.
1042 [Steve Henson]
1043
1044 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
1045 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
1046 [Steve Henson]
1047
1048 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
1049 platform support for Linux and Android.
1050 [Andy Polyakov]
1051
1052 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
1053 [Andy Polyakov]
1054
1055 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
1056 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
1057 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
1058 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
1059 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
1060 [Steve Henson]
1061
1062 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
1063 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
1064 the new parameter format automatically.
1065 [Steve Henson]
1066
1067 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
1068 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
1069 [Steve Henson]
1070
1071 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
1072 [Steve Henson]
1073
1074 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
1075 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
1076 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
1077 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
1078 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
1079 [Steve Henson]
1080
1081 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
1082 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
1083 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
1084 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
1085 to set list of supported curves.
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
1089 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
1090 to print out received values.
1091 [Steve Henson]
1092
1093 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
1094 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
1095 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
1096 [Steve Henson]
1097
1098 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
1099 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
1100 [Steve Henson]
1101
1102 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
1103 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
1104 [Steve Henson]
1105
1106 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
1107 certificates.
1108 [Steve Henson]
1109
1110 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
1111 the certificate.
1112 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
1113 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
1114 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
1115
1116 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
1117
1118 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
1119 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
1120
1121 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
1122
1123 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
1124 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
1125 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
1126 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
1127 (CVE-2014-3571)
1128 [Steve Henson]
1129
1130 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
1131 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
1132 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
1133 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
1134 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
1135 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
1136 (CVE-2015-0206)
1137 [Matt Caswell]
1138
1139 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
1140 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
1141 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
1142 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
1143 (CVE-2014-3569)
1144 [Kurt Roeckx]
1145
1146 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
1147 ECDH ciphersuites.
1148
1149 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
1150 reporting this issue.
1151 (CVE-2014-3572)
1152 [Steve Henson]
1153
1154 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
1155 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
1156 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
1157 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
1158 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
1159 INRIA or reporting this issue.
1160 (CVE-2015-0204)
1161 [Steve Henson]
1162
1163 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
1164 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
1165 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
1166 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
1167 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
1168 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
1169 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
1170 this issue.
1171 (CVE-2015-0205)
1172 [Steve Henson]
1173
1174 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
1175 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
1176
1177 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
1178 and can vary with the CTX.
1179 [Adam Langley]
1180
1181 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
1182
1183 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
1184 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
1185 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
1186 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
1187 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
1188
1189 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
1190
1191 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
1192 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
1193
1194 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
1195
1196 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
1197 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
1198 errors for some broken certificates.
1199
1200 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
1201
1202 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
1203
1204 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
1205 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
1206
1207 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
1208 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
1209 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
1210 (negative or with leading zeroes).
1211
1212 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
1213 of the OpenSSL core team.
1214
1215 (CVE-2014-8275)
1216 [Steve Henson]
1217
1218 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
1219 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
1220 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
1221 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
1222 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
1223 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
1224 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
1225 the OpenSSL core team.
1226 (CVE-2014-3570)
1227 [Andy Polyakov]
1228
1229 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
1230 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
1231 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
1232 sanity and breaks all known clients.
1233 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
1234
1235 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
1236 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
1237 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
1238 [Emilia Käsper]
1239
1240 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
1241 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
1242 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1243 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
1244 announced in the initial ServerHello.
1245
1246 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
1247 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
1248 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
1249 [Emilia Käsper]
1250
1251 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
1252
1253 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
1254
1255 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
1256 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
1257 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
1258 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
1259 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
1260 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
1261 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
1262
1263 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
1264 (CVE-2014-3513)
1265 [OpenSSL team]
1266
1267 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
1268
1269 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
1270 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
1271 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
1272 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
1273 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
1274 attack.
1275 (CVE-2014-3567)
1276 [Steve Henson]
1277
1278 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
1279
1280 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
1281 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
1282 configured to send them.
1283 (CVE-2014-3568)
1284 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
1285
1286 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
1287 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
1288 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
1289 (CVE-2014-3566)
1290 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1291
1292 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
1293
1294 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
1295 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
1296 DigestInfo structures.
1297
1298 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
1299
1300 [Steve Henson]
1301
1302 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
1303
1304 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
1305 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
1306 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
1307
1308 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
1309 Group for discovering this issue.
1310 (CVE-2014-3512)
1311 [Steve Henson]
1312
1313 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
1314 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
1315 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
1316 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
1317 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
1318
1319 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
1320 researching this issue.
1321 (CVE-2014-3511)
1322 [David Benjamin]
1323
1324 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
1325 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
1326 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
1327 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
1328
1329 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
1330 issue.
1331 (CVE-2014-3510)
1332 [Emilia Käsper]
1333
1334 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
1335 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1336 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1337 (CVE-2014-3507)
1338 [Adam Langley]
1339
1340 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
1341 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
1342 Denial of Service attack.
1343 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
1344 (CVE-2014-3506)
1345 [Adam Langley]
1346
1347 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
1348 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1349 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1350 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1351 this issue.
1352 (CVE-2014-3505)
1353 [Adam Langley]
1354
1355 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
1356 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
1357 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
1358
1359 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
1360 issue.
1361 (CVE-2014-3509)
1362 [Gabor Tyukasz]
1363
1364 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
1365 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
1366 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
1367 Denial of Service attack.
1368
1369 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
1370 discovering and researching this issue.
1371 (CVE-2014-5139)
1372 [Steve Henson]
1373
1374 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
1375 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
1376 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
1377 output to the attacker.
1378
1379 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
1380 (CVE-2014-3508)
1381 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
1382
1383 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1384 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1385 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1386 [Bodo Moeller]
1387
1388 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
1389
1390 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
1391 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
1392 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
1393
1394 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
1395 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
1396 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
1397
1398 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
1399 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
1400 in a DoS attack.
1401
1402 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
1403 (CVE-2014-0221)
1404 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
1405
1406 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
1407 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
1408 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
1409 code on a vulnerable client or server.
1410
1411 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
1412 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
1413
1414 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
1415 are subject to a denial of service attack.
1416
1417 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
1418 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
1419 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
1420
1421 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1422 compilation flags.
1423 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1424
1425 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1426 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1427 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1428
1429 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1430 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1431
1432 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
1433
1434 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1435 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1436 server.
1437
1438 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1439 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1440 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1441 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1442
1443 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1444 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1445 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1446 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1447
1448 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1449 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1450 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1451
1452 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
1453
1454 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
1455 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
1456 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
1457 is at least 512 bytes long.
1458
1459 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
1460
1461 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
1462
1463 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
1464 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
1465 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
1466 (CVE-2013-4353)
1467
1468 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
1469 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
1470 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
1471 [Steve Henson]
1472
1473 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
1474 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
1475 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
1476 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
1477 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
1478 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
1479 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
1480
1481 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
1482
1483 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
1484 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
1485 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1486
1487 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
1488
1489 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1490
1491 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1492 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1493 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1494
1495 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information

1501
1502 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
1503 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
1504 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering

1513
1514 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1515 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1516
1517 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1518 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1519 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1520 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1521 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1522

1526 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
1527 if renegotiating.
1528 [Steve Henson]
1529
1530 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]

1547
1548 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
1549
1550 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1551 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
1552 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
1553 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
1554 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
1555 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
1556 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
1557 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
1558 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
1559 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
1560 [Steve Henson]
1561
1562 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
1563 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
1564 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
1565 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
1566 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
1567 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
1568 client side.
1569 [Andy Polyakov]
1570
1571 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
1572
1573 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1574 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1575 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1576
1577 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1578 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1579 (CVE-2012-2110)
1580 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1581
1582 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
1583 [Adam Langley]
1584
1585 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
1586 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
1587
1588 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
1589 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
1590 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
1591 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
1592 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
1593 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
1594 Most broken servers should now work.
1595 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
1596 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
1597 [Steve Henson]
1598
1599 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
1600 [Andy Polyakov]
1601
1602 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
1603
1604 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
1605 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
1606 [Steve Henson]
1607
1608 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1609 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1610 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1611 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1612 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1613 [Steve Henson]
1614
1615 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1616 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1617 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
1618 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1619 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1620 [Steve Henson]
1621
1622 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1623 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1624
1625 *) Add support for SCTP.
1626 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1627
1628 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1629 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1630
1631 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1632
1633 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1634 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1635 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1636 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1637 - s390x: z196 support;
1638 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1639
1640 [Andy Polyakov]
1641
1642 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1643 (removal of unnecessary code)
1644 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1645
1646 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1647 [Eric Rescorla]
1648
1649 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1650 [Eric Rescorla]
1651
1652 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1653 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1654 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1655 by Google.
1656 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1657
1658 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1659 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1660 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1661 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1662 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1663
1664 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1665 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1666 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1667
1668 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1669 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1670 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1671
1672 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1673 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1674 implementations).
1675 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1676
1677 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1678 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1679 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1680 [Steve Henson]
1681
1682 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1683 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1684 particular PSS.
1685 [Steve Henson]
1686
1687 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1688 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1689 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1690 [Steve Henson]
1691
1692 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1693 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1694 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1695 the appropriate parameters.
1696 [Steve Henson]
1697
1698 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1699 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1700 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1701 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
1702 against a number of sample certificates.
1703 [Steve Henson]
1704
1705 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
1706 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
1707
1708 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
1709 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
1710
1711 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
1712 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
1713 parameters r, s.
1714 [Steve Henson]
1715
1716 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
1717 RFC3211.
1718 [Steve Henson]
1719
1720 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
1721 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
1722 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
1723 password based CMS).
1724 [Steve Henson]
1725
1726 *) Session-handling fixes:
1727 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
1728 but also support Session Tickets.
1729 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
1730 presented a ticket with an expired session.
1731 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
1732 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
1733 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
1734 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1735
1736 *) Fix PSK session representation.
1737 [Bodo Moeller]
1738
1739 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
1740
1741 This work was sponsored by Intel.
1742 [Andy Polyakov]
1743
1744 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
1745 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
1746 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
1747 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
1748 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
1749 [Steve Henson]
1750
1751 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
1752 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
1753 [Steve Henson]
1754
1755 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
1756 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
1757 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
1758 [Steve Henson]
1759
1760 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
1761 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
1762 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
1763 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
1764 [Steve Henson]
1765
1766 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
1767 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
1768 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
1769 [Steve Henson]
1770
1771 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
1772 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
1773
1774 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
1775 [Steve Henson]
1776
1777 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
1778 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
1779 [Steve Henson]
1780
1781 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1782 [Steve Henson]
1783
1784 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
1785 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
1786 [Steve Henson]
1787
1788 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
1789 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1790 [Steve Henson]
1791
1792 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1793 [Steve Henson]
1794
1795 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1796 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1797 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1798 [Steve Henson]
1799
1800 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1801 [Steve Henson]
1802
1803 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1804 [Steve Henson]
1805
1806 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1807 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1808 [Steve Henson]
1809
1810 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1811 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1812 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1813 [Steve Henson]
1814
1815 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1816 [Steve Henson]
1817
1818 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1819 and enable MD5.
1820 [Steve Henson]
1821
1822 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1823 FIPS modules versions.
1824 [Steve Henson]
1825
1826 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1827 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1828 until after the certificate request message is received.
1829 [Steve Henson]
1830
1831 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1832 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1833 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1834 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1835 [Steve Henson]
1836
1837 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1838 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1839 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1840 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1841 [Steve Henson]
1842
1843 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1844 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1845 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1846 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1847 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1848 and version checking.
1849 [Steve Henson]
1850
1851 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1852 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1853 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1854 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1855 [Steve Henson]
1856
1857 *) Add SRP support.
1858 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1859
1860 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1861 [Steve Henson]
1862
1863 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1864 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1865 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1866
1867 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1868 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1869 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1870 [Steve Henson]
1871
1872 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1873 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1874
1875 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1876 a few changes are required:
1877
1878 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1879 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1880 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1881 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1882 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1883 [Steve Henson]
1884
1885 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1886
1887 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1888 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1889 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1890 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1891 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1892 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1893 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1894 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1895 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1896 [Steve Henson]
1897
1898 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1899 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1900 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1901 [Steve Henson]
1902
1903 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1904
1905 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1906 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1907 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1908 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1909 [Antonio Martin]
1910
1911 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1912
1913 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1914 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1915 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1916 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1917 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1918 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1919 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1920 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1921 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1922 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1923 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1924 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1925 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1926
1927 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1928 (CVE-2011-4576)
1929 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1930
1931 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1932 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1933 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1934 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1935
1936 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1937 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1938
1939 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1940 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1941 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1942 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1943
1944 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1945 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1946
1947 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1948 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1949
1950 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1951 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1952
1953 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1954 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1955 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1956
1957 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1958 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1959 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1960
1961 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1962 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1963 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1964 the last update always remained unused).
1965 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1966
1967 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1968 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1969
1970 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1971
1972 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1973 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1974 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1975
1976 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1977 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1978 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1979
1980 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1981 [Bodo Moeller]
1982
1983 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1984 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1985 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1986 [Steve Henson]
1987
1988 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1989 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1990
1991 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1992
1993 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1994
1995 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1996
1997 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1998 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1999
2000 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2001 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2002 ambiguous.
2003 [Steve Henson]
2004
2005 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
2006
2007 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2008 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2009 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2010 [Steve Henson]
2011
2012 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2013 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2014 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2015 [Ben Laurie]
2016
2017 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
2018
2019 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2020 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2021 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2022 [Steve Henson]
2023
2024 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
2025 a DLL.
2026 [Steve Henson]
2027
2028 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
2029
2030 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
2031 (CVE-2010-1633)
2032 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
2033
2034 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
2035
2036 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
2037 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
2038 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
2039 [Steve Henson]
2040
2041 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
2042 [Steve Henson]
2043
2044 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
2045 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
2046 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
2047
2048 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
2049 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
2050 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
2051 [Steve Henson]
2052
2053 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
2054 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
2055 [Steve Henson]
2056
2057 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
2058 some responders need this.
2059 [Steve Henson]
2060
2061 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
2062 correctly.
2063 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2064
2065 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
2066 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
2067 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
2068 [Steve Henson]
2069
2070 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
2071 [Steve Henson]
2072
2073 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
2074 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
2075 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
2076 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
2077 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
2078 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
2079 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
2080 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
2081 [Steve Henson]
2082
2083 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
2084 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
2085 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
2086 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2087
2088 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
2089 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
2090
2091 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
2092 be used on C++.
2093 [Steve Henson]
2094
2095 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
2096 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
2097 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
2098 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
2099 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
2100 attempting to work them out.
2101 [Steve Henson]
2102
2103 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
2104 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
2105 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
2106 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
2107 [Steve Henson]
2108
2109 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
2110 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
2111 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
2112 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
2113 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
2114 [Steve Henson]
2115
2116 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
2117 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
2118 you can do:
2119
2120 openssl sha256 foo
2121
2122 as well as:
2123
2124 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
2125
2126 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
2127
2128 [Steve Henson]
2129
2130 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
2131 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2132
2133 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
2134 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
2135
2136 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
2137 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
2138 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
2139 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
2140 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
2141 [Steve Henson]
2142
2143 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
2144 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
2145 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
2146 [Steve Henson]
2147
2148 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
2149 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
2150 [Steve Henson]
2151
2152 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
2153 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
2154
2155 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
2156 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
2157 [Steve Henson]
2158
2159 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
2160 [Ben Laurie]
2161
2162 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
2163 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
2164 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
2165 CONF_VALUE.
2166 [Ben Laurie]
2167
2168 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
2169 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
2170 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
2171 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
2172 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
2173 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
2174 [Steve Henson]
2175
2176 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
2177 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
2178
2179 This work was sponsored by Google.
2180 [Steve Henson]
2181
2182 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
2183 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
2184 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
2185 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
2186 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
2187 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
2188 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
2189 default.
2190
2191 This work was sponsored by Google.
2192 [Steve Henson]
2193
2194 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
2195
2196 This work was sponsored by Google.
2197 [Steve Henson]
2198
2199 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
2200 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
2201 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
2202 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
2203
2204 This work was sponsored by Google.
2205 [Steve Henson]
2206
2207 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
2208 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
2209 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
2210 CRL functionality in future.
2211
2212 This work was sponsored by Google.
2213 [Steve Henson]
2214
2215 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
2216
2217 This work was sponsored by Google.
2218 [Steve Henson]
2219
2220 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
2221 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
2222
2223 This work was sponsored by Google.
2224 [Steve Henson]
2225
2226 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
2227 and URI types are currently supported.
2228
2229 This work was sponsored by Google.
2230 [Steve Henson]
2231
2232 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
2233 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
2234 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
2235 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
2236 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
2237 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
2238 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
2239 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
2240
2241 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
2242 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
2243 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
2244
2245 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
2246 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
2247 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
2248 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
2249
2250 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
2251 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
2252 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
2253 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
2254 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
2255 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
2256 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
2257 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
2258 of &errno.)
2259 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
2260
2261 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
2262 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
2263 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
2264
2265 This work was sponsored by Google.
2266 [Steve Henson]
2267
2268 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
2269 [Ben Laurie]
2270
2271 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2272 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
2273 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
2274 [Ben Laurie]
2275
2276 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
2277 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
2278 [Nick Mathewson]
2279
2280 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
2281 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
2282 [Ben Laurie]
2283
2284 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
2285 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
2286 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
2287 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
2288 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
2289 content types and variants.
2290 [Steve Henson]
2291
2292 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
2293 [Steve Henson]
2294
2295 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
2296 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
2297 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
2298 files from the associated perl scripts.
2299 [Steve Henson]
2300
2301 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
2302 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
2303 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2304
2305 *) s390x assembler pack.
2306 [Andy Polyakov]
2307
2308 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
2309 "family."
2310 [Andy Polyakov]
2311
2312 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
2313 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
2314 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
2315 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
2316 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
2317 to use. For example, specify an option
2318
2319 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
2320
2321 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
2322 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
2323 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
2324 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
2325 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
2326 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
2327
2328 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
2329 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
2330 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
2331 return non-zero for success.
2332
2333 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
2334 by using
2335
2336 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
2337 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2338
2339 where
2340
2341 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
2342 void *arg;
2343
2344 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
2345 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
2346 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
2347 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
2348 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2349 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2350 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2351 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2352 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2353
2354 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2355 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
2356 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
2357 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
2358 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
2359 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
2360
2361 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
2362 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
2363 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
2364 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
2365 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
2366 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
2367
2368 [Bodo Moeller]
2369
2370 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
2371 MAC.
2372
2373 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2374
2375 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2376 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2377 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2378 supported.
2379
2380 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2381 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2382 SSL_SESSION.
2383
2384 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2385 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2386 with no application modification.
2387
2388 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2389 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2390
2391 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2392 or server extensions to be examined.
2393
2394 This work was sponsored by Google.
2395 [Steve Henson]
2396
2397 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
2398 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
2399 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
2400
2401 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
2402 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
2403 ciphersuite support.
2404 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
2405
2406 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
2407 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
2408 to output in BER and PEM format.
2409 [Steve Henson]
2410
2411 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
2412 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
2413 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2414 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
2415 -macopt options to dgst utility.
2416 [Steve Henson]
2417
2418 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
2419 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
2420 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
2421 utility.
2422 [Steve Henson]
2423
2424 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
2425 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
2426 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
2427 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
2428 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
2429 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
2430 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
2431 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
2432 enabled again.
2433
2434 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
2435 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
2436 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
2437 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
2438
2439 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
2440 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
2441 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
2442 the default order.
2443 [Bodo Moeller]
2444
2445 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
2446 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
2447 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
2448 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
2449 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
2450 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
2451 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
2452 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
2453 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
2454
2455 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
2456 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
2457 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
2458 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
2459 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
2460 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
2461 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
2462 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
2463 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
2464 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
2465 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
2466 kinds of kludges.
2467
2468 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
2469 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
2470 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
2471
2472 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
2473 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
2474 "CAMELLIA256".
2475 [Bodo Moeller]
2476
2477 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
2478 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
2479 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
2480 [Nils Larsch]
2481
2482 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
2483 it yet and it is largely untested.
2484 [Steve Henson]
2485
2486 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
2487 [Nils Larsch]
2488
2489 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
2490 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
2491 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
2492 [Steve Henson]
2493
2494 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
2495 [Andy Polyakov]
2496
2497 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
2498 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
2499 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
2500 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
2501 [Steve Henson]
2502
2503 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
2504 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
2505 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
2506 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
2507 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
2508 [Steve Henson]
2509
2510 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.

2512 [Cryptocom]
2513
2514 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
2515 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
2516 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
2517 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
2518 [Steve Henson]
2519
2520 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
2521 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
2522 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
2523 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
2524 [Steve Henson]
2525
2526 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
2527 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
2528 [Steve Henson]
2529
2530 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
2531 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
2532 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
2533 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
2534 [Steve Henson]
2535
2536 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
2537 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
2538 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
2539 [Steve Henson]
2540
2541 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
2542 utility.
2543 [Steve Henson]
2544
2545 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
2546 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
2547 [Steve Henson]
2548
2549 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2550 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2551 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2552 if necessary.
2553 [Steve Henson]
2554
2555 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2556 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2557 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2558 [Steve Henson]
2559
2560 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2561 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2562 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2563 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2564 [Steve Henson]
2565
2566 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2567 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2568 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2569 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2570 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2571 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2572 [Douglas Stebila]
2573
2574 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2575 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2576 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2577 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2578 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2579
2580 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2581 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2582 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2583 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2584 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2585 protocol).
2586
2587 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2588 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2589 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2590 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2591
2592 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2593 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2594 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2595 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2596 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2597
2598 aECDH - ECDH cert
2599 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2600 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2601
2602 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2603 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2604
2605 [Bodo Moeller]
2606
2607 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2608 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2609 [Steve Henson]
2610
2611 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2612 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2613 [Steve Henson]
2614
2615 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2616 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2617 functional reference processing.
2618 [Steve Henson]
2619
2620 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2621 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2622 process.
2623 [Steve Henson]
2624
2625 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2626 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2627 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2628 [Steve Henson]
2629
2630 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2631 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2632 application to support multiple signers.
2633 [Steve Henson]
2634
2635 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2636 digest MAC.
2637 [Steve Henson]
2638
2639 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2640 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2641 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2642 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2643 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2644 [Steve Henson]
2645
2646 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2647 new API.
2648 [Steve Henson]
2649
2650 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2651 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2652 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2653 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2654 a no op.
2655 [Steve Henson]
2656
2657 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2658 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2659 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2660 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
2661 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2662 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2663 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2664 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2665 [Steve Henson]
2666
2667 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2668 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2669 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2670 between digests and public key types.
2671 [Steve Henson]
2672
2673 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2674 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2675 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2676 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2677 [Steve Henson]
2678
2679 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2680 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2681 key ASN1 method.
2682 [Steve Henson]
2683
2684 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2685 [Steve Henson]
2686
2687 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2688 pkeyutl.
2689 [Steve Henson]
2690
2691 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2692 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2693 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2694 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2695 pkey, genpkey.
2696 [Steve Henson]
2697
2698 *) BeOS support.
2699 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2700
2701 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
2702 manual pages.
2703 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2704
2705 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
2706 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
2707 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
2708 functionality for RSA.
2709 [Steve Henson]
2710
2711 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
2712 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
2713 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
2714 [Steve Henson]
2715
2716 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
2717 key API, doesn't do much yet.
2718 [Steve Henson]
2719
2720 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
2721 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
2722 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
2723 [Steve Henson]
2724
2725 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
2726 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2727 [Douglas Stebila]
2728
2729 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
2730 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
2731 [Steve Henson]
2732
2733 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2734 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2735 type.
2736 [Steve Henson]
2737
2738 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2739 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2740 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2741 structure.
2742 [Steve Henson]
2743
2744 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2745 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2746 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2747 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2748 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2749 of public and private key structures.
2750 [Steve Henson]
2751
2752 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2753 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2754 [Douglas Stebila]
2755
2756 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2757 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2758 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2759
2760 New ciphersuites:
2761 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2762 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2763
2764 New functions:
2765 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
2766 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
2767 SSL_get_psk_identity
2768 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
2769
2770 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2771
2772 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2773 and response verification functionality.
2774 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2775
2776 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2777 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2778 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2779 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2780 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2781 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2782 server_name extension.
2783
2784 New functions (subject to change):
2785
2786 SSL_get_servername()
2787 SSL_get_servername_type()
2788 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2789
2790 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2791
2792 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2793 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2794 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2795 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2796 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2797
2798 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2799
2800 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2801 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2802 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2803 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2804 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2805 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2806 option.
2807
2808 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2809
2810 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2811 [Andy Polyakov]
2812
2813 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2814 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2815 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2816 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2817 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2818 [Andy Polyakov]
2819
2820 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2821 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2822 macro.
2823 [Bodo Moeller]
2824
2825 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2826 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2827 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2828 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2829 [Andy Polyakov]
2830
2831 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2832 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2833 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2834 using the maximum available value.
2835 [Steve Henson]
2836
2837 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2838 in addition to the text details.
2839 [Bodo Moeller]
2840
2841 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2842 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2843 handle several customised structures at all.
2844 [Steve Henson]
2845
2846 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2847 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2848 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2849 [Steve Henson]
2850
2851 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2852 [Steve Henson]
2853
2854 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2855 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2856 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2857 [Steve Henson]
2858
2859 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2860 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2861 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2862 [Nils Larsch]
2863
2864 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2865 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2866 all fields.
2867 [Steve Henson]
2868
2869 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2870 [Steve Henson]
2871
2872 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2873 [NTT]
2874
2875 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2876
2877 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2878 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2879 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2880 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2881 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2882 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2883 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2884 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2885
2886 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2887 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2888 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2889
2890 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2891
2892 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2893 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2894
2895 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2896 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2897 [Bodo Moeller]
2898
2899 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2900 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2901 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2902 [Steve Henson]
2903
2904 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2905 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2906 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2907 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2908 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2909 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2910 [Steve Henson]
2911
2912 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2913 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2914 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2915 [Steve Henson]
2916
2917 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2918 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2919 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2920 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2921 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2922 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2923 CVE-2009-4355.
2924 [Steve Henson]
2925
2926 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2927 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2928 [Bodo Moeller]
2929
2930 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2931 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2932 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2933 [Steve Henson]
2934
2935 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2936 [Steve Henson]
2937
2938 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2939 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2940 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2941 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2942 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2943 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2944 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2945 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2946 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2947 [Steve Henson]
2948
2949 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2950 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2951 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2952 [Steve Henson]
2953
2954 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2955 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2956 [Steve Henson]
2957
2958 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2959 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2960 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2961 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2962 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2963 know what you are doing.
2964 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2965
2966 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2967 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2968 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2969 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2970 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2971 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2972 the handshake.
2973 [Steve Henson]
2974
2975 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2976 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2977 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2978 correctly.
2979 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2980
2981 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2982 warnings in other configurations.
2983 [Steve Henson]
2984
2985 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2986 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2987 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2988 systems need.
2989 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2990
2991 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2992 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2993 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2994
2995 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2996 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2997 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2998 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2999 [Steve Henson]
3000
3001 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
3002 and restored.
3003 [Steve Henson]
3004
3005 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
3006 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
3007 clash.
3008 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
3009
3010 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
3011 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
3012 other than a simple chain.
3013 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
3014
3015 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
3016 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
3017 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
3018 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
3019 [Steve Henson]
3020
3021 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
3022 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
3023 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
3024 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
3025 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
3026 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
3027 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
3028 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
3029 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3030
3031 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
3032 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
3033 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
3034 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
3035 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
3036 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
3037 (CVE-2009-1377)
3038 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
3039
3040 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
3041 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
3042 [Daniel Mentz]
3043
3044 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
3045 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
3046
3047 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
3048 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
3049
3050 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
3051
3052 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
3053 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
3054 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
3055 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
3056 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
3057 you're doing.
3058 [Ben Laurie]
3059
3060 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
3061
3062 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
3063 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
3064 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
3065 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
3066
3067 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
3068 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
3069 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
3070 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3071
3072 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
3073 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
3074 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
3075 [Steve Henson]
3076
3077 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
3078 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
3079 level.
3080 [Steve Henson]
3081
3082 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
3083 to handle some structures.
3084 [Steve Henson]
3085
3086 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
3087 for a '\n'
3088 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
3089
3090 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
3091 [Matthieu Herrb]
3092
3093 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
3094 [Steve Henson]
3095
3096 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
3097 [Steve Henson]
3098
3099 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
3100 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
3101 chosen compiler.
3102 [Ben Laurie]
3103
3104 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
3105
3106 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
3107 (CVE-2008-5077).
3108 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
3109
3110 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
3111 [Ben Laurie]
3112
3113 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
3114 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
3115 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
3116 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
3117
3118 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
3119 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
3120
3121 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
3122 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
3123 [Bodo Moeller]
3124
3125 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
3126 s_client and s_server.
3127 [Ben Laurie]
3128
3129 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
3130 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
3131
3132 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
3133 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
3134
3135 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
3136 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
3137 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
3138 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
3139 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
3140 [Bodo Moeller]
3141
3142 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
3143
3144 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
3145 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
3146 [PR #1679]
3147
3148 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
3149 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
3150 [Nagendra Modadugu]
3151
3152 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
3153 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
3154 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
3155 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
3156
3157 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
3158 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
3159
3160 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
3161
3162 *) Various precautionary measures:
3163
3164 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
3165
3166 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
3167 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
3168 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
3169
3170 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
3171 outside the expected range.
3172
3173 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
3174 builds.
3175
3176 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
3177
3178 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
3179 the load fails. Useful for distros.
3180 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
3181
3182 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
3183 [Steve Henson]
3184
3185 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
3186 [Huang Ying]
3187
3188 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
3189
3190 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3191 [Steve Henson]
3192
3193 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
3194 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
3195 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
3196
3197 This work was sponsored by Logica.
3198 [Steve Henson]
3199
3200 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
3201 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
3202 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
3203 files.
3204 [Steve Henson]
3205
3206 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
3207
3208 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
3209 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
3210 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
3211 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
3212
3213 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
3214 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
3215 [Joe Orton]
3216
3217 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
3218
3219 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
3220 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
3221 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
3222
3223 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
3224
3225 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
3226 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
3227 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
3228 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
3229 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3230
3231 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
3232 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
3233 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
3234 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
3235 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
3236 invalid read after the end of 'db').
3237 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
3238
3239 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
3240
3241 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
3242 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
3243 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
3244 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
3245 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
3246
3247 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
3248 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
3249
3250 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
3251 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
3252 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
3253 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
3254 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
3255
3256 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
3257
3258 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
3259 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
3260 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
3261 sets may exist with different names.
3262 [Steve Henson]
3263
3264 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
3265 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
3266 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
3267 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
3268 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
3269 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
3270 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
3271 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
3272 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
3273 implementation.
3274 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
3275
3276 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
3277 implemention in the following ways:
3278
3279 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
3280 hard coded.
3281
3282 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
3283 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
3284 ignored for embedded content.
3285
3286 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
3287 with the enable-cms configuration option.
3288 [Steve Henson]
3289
3290 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
3291 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
3292 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
3293 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
3294
3295 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
3296 uncompresses any data passed through it.
3297 [Steve Henson]
3298
3299 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
3300 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
3301 [Steve Henson]
3302
3303 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
3304 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
3305 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
3306 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
3307 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
3308 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
3309 data.
3310 [Steve Henson]
3311
3312 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
3313 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
3314 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
3315
3316 *) Netware support:
3317
3318 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
3319 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
3320 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
3321 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
3322 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
3323 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
3324 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
3325 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
3326 platform
3327 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
3328 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
3329 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
3330 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
3331 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
3332 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
3333 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
3334
3335 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
3336 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
3337 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
3338 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
3339 to s_client and s_server.
3340 [Steve Henson]
3341
3342 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
3343
3344 *) Fix various bugs:
3345 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
3346 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
3347 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
3348 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3349 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3350
3351 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3352
3353 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3354 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3355 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3356 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3357 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3358 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3359 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3360 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3361 [Andy Polyakov]
3362
3363 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3364 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3365 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3366 Steve Henson]
3367
3368 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3369 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3370 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3371 supported.
3372
3373 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3374 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3375 SSL_SESSION.
3376
3377 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3378 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3379 with no application modification.
3380
3381 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3382 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3383
3384 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3385 or server extensions to be examined.
3386
3387 This work was sponsored by Google.
3388 [Steve Henson]
3389
3390 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3391 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3392 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3393 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3394 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3395 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3396 server_name extension.
3397
3398 New functions (subject to change):
3399
3400 SSL_get_servername()
3401 SSL_get_servername_type()
3402 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3403
3404 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3405
3406 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3407 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3408 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3409 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3410 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3411
3412 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3413
3414 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3415 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3416 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3417 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3418 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3419 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3420 option.
3421
3422 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3423
3424 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3425 [Steve Henson]
3426
3427 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3428 [Andy Polyakov]
3429
3430 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3431 (which previously caused an internal error).
3432 [Bodo Moeller]
3433
3434 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3435 [Ben Laurie]
3436
3437 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3438 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3439
3440 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3441 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3442 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3443
3444 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3445 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3446 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3447 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3448
3449 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3450 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3451 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3452 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3453
3454 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3455 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3456 information. For detailed background information, see
3457 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3458 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3459 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3460 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3461 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3462 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3463 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3464 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3465 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3466 remove a conditional branch.
3467
3468 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3469 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3470 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3471 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3472 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3473 remains as a deprecated alias.
3474
3475 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3476 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3477 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3478 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3479
3480 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3481 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3482 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3483 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3484 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3485 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3486 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3487 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3488
3489 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3490
3491 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3492 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3493 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3494 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3495 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3496 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3497 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3498 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3499 in a different context.
3500 [Bodo Moeller]
3501
3502 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3503 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3504 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3505 [Bodo Moeller]
3506
3507 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3508 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3509 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3510
3511 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3512
3513 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3514 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3515 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3516 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3517 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3518 [Victor Duchovni]
3519
3520 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3521 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3522 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3523 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3524 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3525 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3526 [Bodo Moeller]
3527
3528 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3529 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3530 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3531 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3532 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3533 [Bodo Moeller]
3534
3535 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3536 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3537
3538 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3539 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3540 Improve header file function name parsing.
3541 [Steve Henson]
3542
3543 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3544 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3545 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3546
3547 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3548
3549 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3550 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3551 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3552
3553 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3554 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3555
3556 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3557 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3558
3559 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3560 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3561 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3562
3563 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3564 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3565 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3566 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3567 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3568 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3569 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3570 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3571 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3572
3573 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3574 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3575 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3576 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3577 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3578
3579 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3580 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3581 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3582 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3583 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3584 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3585 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3586 multiple values to extend the available space.
3587
3588 [Bodo Moeller]
3589
3590 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3591
3592 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3593 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3594
3595 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3596 [Ben Laurie]
3597
3598 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3599 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3600 undesirable limitations.
3601 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3602
3603 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3604 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3605 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3606 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3607 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3608 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3609 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3610 [Bodo Moeller]
3611
3612 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3613
3614 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3615 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3616 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3617
3618 The latter two were purportedly from
3619 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3620 appear there.
3621
3622 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3623 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3624 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3625 [Bodo Moeller]
3626
3627 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3628 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3629 [Bodo Moeller]
3630
3631 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3632 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3633 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3634 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3635
3636 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3637 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3638 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3639 [NTT]
3640
3641 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3642 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3643 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3644 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3645 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3646 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3647 [Steve Henson]
3648
3649 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3650
3651 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3652 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3653 [Steve Henson]
3654
3655 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3656 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3657
3658 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3659 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3660 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3661 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3662 [Douglas Stebila]
3663
3664 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3665 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3666 [Steve Henson]
3667
3668 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3669 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3670 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3671 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3672 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3673 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3674 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3675 can't be loaded.
3676 [Steve Henson]
3677
3678 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3679 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3680 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3681 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3682 [Steve Henson]
3683
3684 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3685 under VC++ build system.
3686 [Steve Henson]
3687
3688 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3689 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3690 [Richard Levitte]
3691
3692 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3693
3694 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3695 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3696 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3697 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3698 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3699
3700 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3701 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3702 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3703
3704 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3705 [Steve Henson]
3706
3707 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3708 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3709 [Nils Larsch]
3710
3711 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3712 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3713
3714 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3715 [Nick Mathewson]
3716
3717 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3718 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3719
3720 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3721 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3722 [Steve Henson]
3723
3724 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3725 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3726 smime utility.
3727 [Steve Henson]
3728
3729 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3730
3731 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3732 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3733
3734 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3735 [Richard Levitte]
3736
3737 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3738 key into the same file any more.
3739 [Richard Levitte]
3740
3741 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3742 [Andy Polyakov]
3743
3744 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3745 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3746
3747 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3748 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3749 [Richard Levitte]
3750
3751 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3752 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3753 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3754 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3755 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3756 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3757
3758 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3759 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3760 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3761 [Steve Henson]
3762
3763 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3764 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3765 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3766 - add new function for parameter creation
3767 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3768 BN_BLINDING parameters
3769 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3770 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3771 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3772 threads.
3773 [Nils Larsch]
3774
3775 *) Add support for DTLS.
3776 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3777
3778 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3779 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3780 [Walter Goulet]
3781
3782 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3783 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3784 [Nils Larsch]
3785
3786 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3787 the apps/openssl applications.
3788 [Nils Larsch]
3789
3790 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3791 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3792 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3793 [Ben Laurie]
3794
3795 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3796 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3797
3798 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3799 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3800
3801 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3802 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3803 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3804 avoid this algorithm.)
3805
3806 [Bodo Moeller]
3807
3808 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3809 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3810 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3811 [Richard Levitte]
3812
3813 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3814 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3815 [Andy Polyakov]
3816
3817 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3818 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3819 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3820 pod file:
3821
3822 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3823
3824 The blank line is mandatory.
3825
3826 [Steve Henson]
3827
3828 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3829 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3830 sources.
3831 [Steve Henson]
3832
3833 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3834 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3835
3836 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3837 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3838 to support policy checking and print out.
3839 [Steve Henson]
3840
3841 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3842 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3843 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3844 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3845
3846 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3847 [Geoff Thorpe]
3848
3849 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3850 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3851
3852 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3853 implementation contributed by IBM.
3854 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3855
3856 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3857 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3858 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3859 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3860
3861 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3862 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3863
3864 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3865 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3866 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3867 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3868 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3869 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3870 [Steve Henson]
3871
3872 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3873 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3874 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3875 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3876 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3877 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3878 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3879 [Geoff Thorpe]
3880
3881 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3882 [Steve Henson]
3883
3884 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3885 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3886 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3887 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3888 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3889 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3890 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3891 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3892 [Steve Henson]
3893
3894 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3895 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3896 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3897 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3898 [Steve Henson]
3899
3900 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3901 syntax:
3902
3903 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3904 [Steve Henson]
3905
3906 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3907 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3908 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3909 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3910 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3911 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3912 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3913 [Geoff Thorpe]
3914
3915 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3916 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3917 [Geoff Thorpe]
3918
3919 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3920 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3921 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3922 [Steve Henson]
3923
3924 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3925 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3926 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3927 below).
3928 [Geoff Thorpe]
3929
3930 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3931 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3932 [Richard Levitte]
3933
3934 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3935 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3936 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3937 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3938 [Geoff Thorpe]
3939
3940 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3941 initialised value as BN_new().
3942 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3943
3944 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3945 [Steve Henson]
3946
3947 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3948 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3949 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3950 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3951 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3952 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3953 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3954 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3955 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3956 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3957 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3958 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3959 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3960 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3961 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3962
3963 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3964 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3965 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3966 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3967 [Geoff Thorpe]
3968
3969 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3970 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3971 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3972 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3973 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3974 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3975 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3976 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3977 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3978 [Geoff Thorpe]
3979
3980 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3981 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3982 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3983 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3984 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3985 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3986 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3987 [Geoff Thorpe]
3988
3989 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3990 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3991 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3992 these have been updated also.
3993 [Geoff Thorpe]
3994
3995 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3996 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3997 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3998 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3999 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
4000 functions.
4001 [Steve Henson]
4002
4003 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
4004 structure of type "other".
4005 [Steve Henson]
4006
4007 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
4008 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
4009 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
4010 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
4011 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
4012 situation in the script.
4013 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4014
4015 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
4016 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
4017 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
4018 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
4019 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
4020 used as premaster secret.
4021 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4022
4023 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
4024 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
4025 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4026
4027 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
4028 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
4029
4030 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
4031 control of the error stack.
4032 [Richard Levitte]
4033
4034 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
4035 [Richard Levitte]
4036
4037 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
4038 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
4039 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
4040 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
4041 [Richard Levitte]
4042
4043 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
4044 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
4045 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
4046 [Richard Levitte]
4047
4048 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
4049 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
4050 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
4051 a memory area.
4052 [Richard Levitte]
4053
4054 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
4055 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
4056 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
4057 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
4058 [Richard Levitte]
4059
4060 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
4061 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
4062 the following flags are defined:
4063
4064 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
4065 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4066 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
4067 number.
4068
4069 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
4070 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
4071 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
4072 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
4073 returns zero.
4074 [Richard Levitte]
4075
4076 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
4077 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
4078 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
4079 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
4080 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
4081 [Richard Levitte]
4082
4083 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
4084 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
4085 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
4086 [Richard Levitte]
4087
4088 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4089 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4090 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4091 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4092 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4093 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4094 [Richard Levitte]
4095
4096 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
4097 req and dirName.
4098 [Steve Henson]
4099
4100 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
4101 [Steve Henson]
4102
4103 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
4104 [Steve Henson]
4105
4106 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
4107 [Steve Henson]
4108
4109 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
4110 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
4111 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
4112 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
4113 default implementation more easily.
4114 [Geoff Thorpe]
4115
4116 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
4117 in config files.
4118 [Steve Henson]
4119
4120 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
4121 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
4122 [Richard Levitte]
4123
4124 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
4125 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
4126 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
4127 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
4128
4129 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
4130 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
4131 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
4132 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
4133 [Steve Henson]
4134
4135 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
4136 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
4137 to do it.
4138 [Richard Levitte]
4139
4140 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
4141 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
4142 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
4143 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
4144 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
4145 scalar * generator).
4146 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
4147
4148 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
4149 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
4150 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
4151 correctly.
4152 [Steve Henson]
4153
4154 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
4155 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
4156 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
4157 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
4158 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
4159 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
4160 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
4161 linker additions, eg;
4162 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
4163 [Geoff Thorpe]
4164
4165 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
4166 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
4167 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
4168 [Geoff Thorpe]
4169
4170 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4171 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4172 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
4173 via PR#459)
4174 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4175
4176 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
4177 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
4178 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
4179 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
4180 [Geoff Thorpe]
4181
4182 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
4183 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
4184 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
4185 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
4186 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
4187 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
4188 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
4189 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
4190 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
4191 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
4192
4193 Example for using the new callback interface:
4194
4195 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
4196 void *my_arg = ...;
4197 BN_GENCB my_cb;
4198
4199 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
4200
4201 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
4202 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
4203 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
4204 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
4205 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
4206 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
4207 */
4208
4209 [Geoff Thorpe]
4210
4211 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
4212 available to TLS with the number defined in
4213 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
4214 [Richard Levitte]
4215
4216 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
4217 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
4218
4219 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
4220 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4221 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
4222 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
4223
4224 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
4225 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
4226
4227 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
4228 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
4229 well.
4230 [Richard Levitte]
4231
4232 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
4233 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
4234 [Richard Levitte]
4235
4236 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
4237 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
4238 and a macro that behave like
4239 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
4240
4241 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
4242 [Nils Larsch]
4243
4244 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
4245 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
4246 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
4247 if applicable.
4248 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4249
4250 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
4251 [Bodo Moeller]
4252
4253 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
4254 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
4255 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
4256 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
4257 directory engines/.
4258 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
4259 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
4260 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
4261 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
4262 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
4263 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
4264 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
4265 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
4266
4267 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
4268 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
4269 [Richard Levitte]
4270
4271 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
4272 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
4273
4274 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
4275 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
4276 files while avoiding the low level API.
4277
4278 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
4279 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
4280 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
4281 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
4282
4283 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
4284 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
4285 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
4286 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
4287 instead of the low level API.
4288 [Steve Henson]
4289
4290 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
4291 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
4292 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
4293 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
4294 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
4295 PKCS#7 code.
4296
4297 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
4298 down to the template encoder.
4299 [Steve Henson]
4300
4301 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
4302 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
4303 [Bodo Moeller]
4304
4305 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
4306 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
4307 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
4308 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4309
4310 *) Add ECDH engine support.
4311 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4312
4313 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
4314 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4315
4316 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
4317 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
4318 [Bodo Moeller]
4319
4320 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
4321 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
4322 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
4323 [Bodo Moeller]
4324
4325 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
4326 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
4327
4328 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4329 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4330
4331 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
4332 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
4333 New EC_METHOD:
4334
4335 EC_GF2m_simple_method
4336
4337 New API functions:
4338
4339 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
4340 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
4341 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
4342 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4343 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
4344 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
4345
4346 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
4347 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
4348 enable it).
4349
4350 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4351 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4352 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4353 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4354 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4355 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4356 various internal method names.)
4357
4358 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4359 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4360
4361 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4362 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4363
4364 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4365 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4366
4367 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4368 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4369 methods are undefined.
4370
4371 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4372 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4373
4374 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4375 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4376 length of the modulus.
4377
4378 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4379 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4380
4381 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4382 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4383
4384 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4385 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4386
4387 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4388 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4389 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4390
4391 BN_GF2m_add
4392 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4393 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4394 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4395 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4396 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4397 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4398 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4399 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4400 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4401
4402 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4403 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4404
4405 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4406 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4407 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4408 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4409 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4410 where
4411 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4412 This applies to the following functions:
4413
4414 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4415 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4416 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4417 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4418 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4419 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4420 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4421 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4422 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4423 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4424
4425 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4426
4427 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4428 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4429
4430 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4431
4432 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4433 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4434 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4435 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4436 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4437
4438 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4439 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4440
4441 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4442 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4443 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4444
4445 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4446 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4447
4448 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4449 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4450 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4451 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4452 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4453
4454 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4455 functions
4456 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4457 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4458 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4459 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4460 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4461 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4462 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4463 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4464 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4465 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4466 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4467 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4468
4469 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4470 functions
4471 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4472 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4473 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4474 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4475 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4476
4477 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4478 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4479 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4480 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4481
4482 *) Add functions
4483 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4484 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4485 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4486 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4487 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4488 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4489 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4490
4491 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4492 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4493 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4494 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4495 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4496 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4497 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4498 adding different types of curves.
4499 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4500
4501 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4502 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4503 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4504 [Bodo Moeller]
4505
4506 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4507 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4508
4509 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4510 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4511 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4512 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4513
4514 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4515
4516 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4517 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4518
4519 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4520 library. Most notably,
4521 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4522 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4523 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4524 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4525 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4526 extracted before the specific public key;
4527 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4528 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4529
4530 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4531 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4532 function
4533 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4534 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4535 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4536 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4537 accessed via
4538 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4539 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4540 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4541
4542 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4543 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4544 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4545 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4546 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4547 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4548 differing sizes.
4549 [Richard Levitte]
4550
4551 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4552
4553 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4554 sensitive data.
4555 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4556
4557 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4558 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4559 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4560 [Bodo Moeller]
4561
4562 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4563 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4564 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4565 [Victor Duchovni]
4566
4567 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4568 [Steve Henson]
4569
4570 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4571 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4572 [Steve Henson]
4573
4574 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4575 run algorithm test programs.
4576 [Steve Henson]
4577
4578 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4579 [Steve Henson]
4580
4581 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4582 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4583 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4584 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4585 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4586 [Bodo Moeller]
4587
4588 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4589 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4590 [Steve Henson]
4591
4592 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4593
4594 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4595 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4596 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4597
4598 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4599 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4600
4601 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4602 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4603
4604 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4605 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4606 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4607
4608 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4609 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4610 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4611 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4612 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4613 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4614 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4615 [Bodo Moeller]
4616
4617 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4618
4619 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4620 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4621
4622 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4623 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4624 undesirable limitations.
4625 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4626
4627 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4628
4629 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4630 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4631 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4632
4633 The latter two were purportedly from
4634 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4635 appear there.
4636
4637 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4638 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4639 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4640 [Bodo Moeller]
4641
4642 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4643 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4644 [Bodo Moeller]
4645
4646 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4647
4648 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4649 module in FIPS mode.
4650 [Steve Henson]
4651
4652 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4653 [Steve Henson]
4654
4655 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4656 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4657 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4658 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4659 [Steve Henson]
4660
4661 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4662
4663 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4664 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4665 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4666 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4667 the difference induced by this change.
4668 [Andy Polyakov]
4669
4670 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4671
4672 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4673 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4674 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4675 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4676 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4677
4678 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4679 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4680 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4681
4682 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4683 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4684 [Steve Henson]
4685
4686 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4687 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4688 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4689 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4690 biased k.)
4691 [Bodo Moeller]
4692
4693 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4694 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4695 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4696 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4697 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4698
4699 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4700 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4701 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4702 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4703 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4704 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4705
4706 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4707
4708 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4709 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4710 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4711 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4712 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4713 [Bodo Moeller]
4714
4715 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4716 clients need.
4717 [Steve Henson]
4718
4719 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4720 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4721 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4722 [Steve Henson]
4723
4724 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4725 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4726 structures constant.
4727 [Steve Henson]
4728
4729 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4730
4731 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4732 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4733
4734 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4735 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4736 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4737 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4738 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4739 some needed definitions.
4740 [Steve Henson]
4741
4742 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4743 [Ulf Möller]
4744
4745 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4746 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4747 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4748 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4749 [Richard Levitte]
4750
4751 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4752
4753 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4754 server and client random values. Previously
4755 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4756 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4757
4758 This change has negligible security impact because:
4759
4760 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4761 data.
4762
4763 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4764 handshake.
4765
4766 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4767 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4768 values.
4769
4770 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4771 to our attention.
4772
4773 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4774
4775 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4776 [Ulf Möller]
4777
4778 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4779 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4780 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4781
4782 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4783 [Steve Henson]
4784
4785 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4786 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4787 [Andy Polyakov]
4788
4789 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4790 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4791 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4792
4793 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4794 [Steve Henson]
4795
4796 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4797 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4798 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4799 certificates.
4800 [Steve Henson]
4801
4802 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4803 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4804 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4805 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4806
4807 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4808 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4809 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4810 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4811 been given)
4812 [Richard Levitte]
4813
4814 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4815
4816 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4817 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4818 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4819 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4820 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4821 [Steve Henson]
4822
4823 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4824 [Steve Henson]
4825
4826 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4827 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4828
4829 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4830 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4831 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4832 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4833 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4834 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4835 rather than being initialized to 1.
4836 [Steve Henson]
4837
4838 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4839
4840 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4841 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4842 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4843
4844 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4845 (CVE-2004-0112)
4846 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4847
4848 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4849 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4850 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4851 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4852 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4853 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4854 [Richard Levitte]
4855
4856 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4857 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4858 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4859 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4860 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4861 for these cases.
4862 [Steve Henson]
4863
4864 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4865 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4866 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4867 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4868 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4869 [Steve Henson]
4870
4871 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4872 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4873 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4874 < 0.9.7.
4875 [Steve Henson]
4876
4877 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4878 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4879
4880 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4881 [Steve Henson]
4882
4883 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4884
4885 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4886
4887 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4888 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4889
4890 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4891
4892 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4893 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4894
4895 [Steve Henson]
4896
4897 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4898 exiting on the first error in a request.
4899 [Steve Henson]
4900
4901 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4902 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4903 specifications.
4904 [Steve Henson]
4905
4906 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4907 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4908 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4909 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4910
4911 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4912 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4913 [Richard Levitte]
4914
4915 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4916 blocks during encryption.
4917 [Richard Levitte]
4918
4919 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4920 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4921 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4922 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4923 certain size.
4924 [Steve Henson]
4925
4926 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4927 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4928 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4929 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4930 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4931 parser.
4932 [Steve Henson]
4933
4934 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4935
4936 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4937 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4938 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4939 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4940 [Bodo Moeller]
4941
4942 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4943 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4944 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4945 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4946 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4947
4948 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4949 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4950 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4951 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4952 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4953 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4954 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4955 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4956 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4957 [Bodo Moeller]
4958
4959 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4960 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4961 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4962 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4963 [Geoff Thorpe]
4964
4965 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4966 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4967 [Ulf Moeller]
4968
4969 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4970
4971 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4972 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4973 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4974 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4975 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4976
4977 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4978 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4979 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4980
4981 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4982 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4983 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4984 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4985 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4986
4987 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4988 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4989 used by default when no-err is given.
4990 [Richard Levitte]
4991
4992 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4993 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4994
4995 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4996 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4997 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4998 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4999 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
5000
5001 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
5002 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
5003 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
5004 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
5005
5006 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
5007
5008 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
5009
5010 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
5011
5012 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
5013 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
5014 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
5015 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
5016 root is omitted).
5017 [Steve Henson]
5018
5019 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
5020 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5021
5022 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
5023 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
5024 [Steve Henson]
5025
5026 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
5027 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
5028 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
5029 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
5030 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5031
5032 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
5033 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
5034 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
5035 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
5036 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
5037 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5038 followup to PR #377.
5039 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5040
5041 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
5042 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
5043 [Andy Polyakov]
5044
5045 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
5046 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
5047 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
5048 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
5049
5050 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
5051
5052 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
5053 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
5054
5055 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
5056 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
5057 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
5058 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
5059 client and server.
5060 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
5061 PR #377.
5062 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5063
5064 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
5065 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
5066 removed entirely.
5067 [Richard Levitte]
5068
5069 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
5070 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
5071 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
5072 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
5073 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
5074 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
5075 of libcrypto.
5076 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
5077 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
5078 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
5079 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
5080 have to be made anyway).
5081 [Richard Levitte]
5082
5083 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
5084 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
5085 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
5086 [Steve Henson]
5087
5088 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
5089 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
5090 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
5091 [Richard Levitte]
5092
5093 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
5094 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
5095 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
5096
5097 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
5098 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
5099 edit numbers of the version.
5100 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
5101
5102 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
5103 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
5104 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
5105
5106 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
5107 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5108
5109 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5110 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5111 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5112
5113 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
5114 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5115
5116 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
5117 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5118
5119 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
5120 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5121
5122 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
5123 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5124
5125 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
5126 overflows.
5127 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5128
5129 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
5130 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
5131 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5132
5133 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
5134 representations in a platform independent manner.
5135 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5136
5137 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
5138 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
5139 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5140
5141 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
5142 indents.
5143 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5144
5145 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
5146 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5147
5148 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
5149 full. Fixed.
5150 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5151
5152 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
5153 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
5154 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5155
5156 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
5157 unconditionally).
5158 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5159
5160 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
5161 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5162
5163 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
5164 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5165
5166 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
5167 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5168
5169 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
5170 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5171
5172 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
5173 CBCParameter.
5174 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5175
5176 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
5177 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5178
5179 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
5180 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5181
5182 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
5183 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
5184 exploitable.
5185 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5186
5187 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
5188 the 0.9.6 release series:
5189
5190 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
5191 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
5192 (CVE-2002-0657)
5193 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
5194
5195 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
5196 [Richard Levitte]
5197
5198 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
5199 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
5200
5201 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
5202 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
5203
5204 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
5205 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
5206 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
5207 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
5208
5209 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
5210 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
5211 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
5212
5213 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
5214 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
5215 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
5216 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
5217
5218 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
5219 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
5220 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
5221 some local tweaks:
5222
5223 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
5224 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
5225 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
5226 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5227 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
5228 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
5229 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
5230 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
5231 done
5232
5233 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
5234 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
5235 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
5236 [Richard Levitte]
5237
5238 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
5239 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
5240 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
5241 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
5242 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
5243
5244 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
5245 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
5246
5247 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
5248 error in AES-CFB decryption.
5249 [Richard Levitte]
5250
5251 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
5252 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
5253 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
5254 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
5255 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
5256 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
5257 [Steve Henson]
5258
5259 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
5260 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
5261 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
5262 [Steve Henson]
5263
5264 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
5265 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
5266 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5267
5268 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
5269 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
5270 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
5271 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
5272 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
5273 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
5274 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
5275 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5276
5277 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
5278 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
5279 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
5280 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
5281 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
5282 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
5283 [Steve Henson]
5284
5285 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
5286 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
5287 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
5288 declaration has been changed from
5289 int (*cb)()
5290 into
5291 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
5292 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
5293 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
5294 has been changed into
5295 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
5296
5297 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
5298 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
5299 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
5300
5301 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
5302 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
5303
5304 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
5305 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
5306 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
5307 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
5308 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
5309 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
5310 always load it have also been added.
5311 [Steve Henson]
5312
5313 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
5314 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
5315 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5316
5317 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
5318
5319 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
5320 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
5321 because it couldn't be used for anything.
5322
5323 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
5324 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
5325 command line option can be used to specify an
5326 alternative file.
5327 [Steve Henson]
5328
5329 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
5330 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
5331 [Steve Henson]
5332
5333 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
5334 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
5335 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
5336 [Steve Henson]
5337
5338 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
5339 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
5340 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
5341 to work with the new engine framework.
5342 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
5343
5344 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
5345 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
5346 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
5347 to work with the new engine framework.
5348 [Richard Levitte]
5349
5350 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5351 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5352 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5353
5354 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5355 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5356
5357 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5358 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5359 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5360 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5361 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5362 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5363
5364 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5365 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5366
5367 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5368 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5369
5370 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5371 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5372 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5373 [Ben Laurie]
5374
5375 *) Add new functions
5376 ERR_peek_last_error
5377 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5378 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5379 These are similar to
5380 ERR_peek_error
5381 ERR_peek_error_line
5382 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5383 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5384 still in the error queue.
5385 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5386
5387 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5388 like:
5389 default_algorithms = ALL
5390 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5391 [Steve Henson]
5392
5393 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
5394 [Steve Henson]
5395
5396 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5397 [Steve Henson]
5398
5399 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5400 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5401 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5402 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5403
5404 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5405 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5406
5407 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5408 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5409
5410 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5411 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5412 [Bodo Moeller]
5413
5414 *) New functions/macros
5415
5416 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5417 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5418 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5419 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5420
5421 to request calling a callback function
5422
5423 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5424 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5425
5426 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5427 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5428 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5429 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5430 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5431 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5432 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5433 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5434 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5435 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5436
5437 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5438 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5439 [Bodo Moeller]
5440
5441 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5442 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5443 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5444 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5445 the configuration scripts.
5446
5447 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5448 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5449 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5450
5451 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5452 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5453
5454 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5455 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5456 when reusing an existing buffer.
5457 [Bodo Moeller]
5458
5459 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5460 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5461 [Steve Henson]
5462
5463 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5464 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5465 [Ben Laurie]
5466
5467 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5468 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5469 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5470 has the same effect.
5471 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5472
5473 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5474 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5475 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5476 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5477 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5478 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5479 exception.
5480
5481 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5482 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5483 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5484 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5485
5486 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5487 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5488 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5489 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5490
5491 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5492 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5493 won't work.
5494
5495 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5496 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5497 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5498 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5499 default), and then completely removed.
5500 [Richard Levitte]
5501
5502 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5503 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5504 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5505 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5506 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5507 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5508 particular extension is supported.
5509 [Steve Henson]
5510
5511 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5512 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5513 [Steve Henson]
5514
5515 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5516 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5517 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5518 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5519 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5520 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5521 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5522 requires the destination to be valid.
5523
5524 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5525 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5526 [Steve Henson]
5527
5528 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5529 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5530 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5531 [Bodo Moeller]
5532
5533 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5534 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5535
5536 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5537 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5538 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5539 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5540 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5541 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5542 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5543 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5544 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5545 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5546 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5547 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5548 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5549 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5550 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5551 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5552 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5553 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5554 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5555 the new code.
5556 [Geoff Thorpe]
5557
5558 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5559 [Steve Henson]
5560
5561 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5562 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5563 become part of libeay.num as well.
5564 [Richard Levitte]
5565
5566 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5567 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5568 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5569 false once a handshake has been completed.
5570 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5571 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5572 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5573 client has followed the request.)
5574 [Bodo Moeller]
5575
5576 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5577 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5578 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5579 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5580
5581 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5582 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5583 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5584 [Bodo Moeller]
5585
5586 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5587 [Steve Henson]
5588
5589 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5590 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5591 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5592 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5593
5594 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5595 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5596 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5597
5598 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5599 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5600 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5601 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5602 [Geoff Thorpe]
5603
5604 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5605 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5606 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5607 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5608 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5609 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5610 [Geoff Thorpe]
5611
5612 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5613 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5614 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5615 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5616 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5617 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5618 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5619 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5620 [Geoff Thorpe]
5621
5622 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5623 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5624 [Geoff Thorpe]
5625
5626 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5627 [Ben Laurie]
5628
5629 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5630 md_data void pointer.
5631 [Ben Laurie]
5632
5633 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5634 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5635 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5636 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5637 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5638 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5639 [Ben Laurie]
5640
5641 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5642 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5643 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5644 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5645 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5646 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5647 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5648 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5649 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5650 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5651 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5652 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5653 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5654 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5655 rather than letting it slide.
5656
5657 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5658 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5659 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5660 [Geoff Thorpe]
5661
5662 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5663 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5664 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5665 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5666 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5667 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5668 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5669 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5670 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5671 [Geoff Thorpe]
5672
5673 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5674 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5675 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5676 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5677 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5678
5679 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5680 [Geoff Thorpe]
5681
5682 *) Add EVP test program.
5683 [Ben Laurie]
5684
5685 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5686 [Ben Laurie]
5687
5688 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5689 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5690 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5691 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5692 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5693 [Steve Henson]
5694
5695 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5696 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5697 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5698 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5699 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5700 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5701 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5702
5703 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5704 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5705 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5706 Usage example:
5707
5708 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5709
5710 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5711 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5712 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5713 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5714 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5715
5716 [Ben Laurie]
5717
5718 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5719 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5720 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5721 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5722 anyway): E.g.,
5723
5724 des_key_schedule ks;
5725
5726 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5727 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5728
5729 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5730 [Ben Laurie]
5731
5732 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5733 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5734 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5735 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5736 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5737 functions prevents this.
5738 [Steve Henson]
5739
5740 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5741 [Ben Laurie]
5742
5743 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5744 correct _ecb suffix.
5745 [Ben Laurie]
5746
5747 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5748 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5749 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5750 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5751 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5752 [Steve Henson]
5753
5754 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5755 [Richard Levitte]
5756
5757 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5758 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5759 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5760 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5761
5762 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5763 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5764
5765 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5766 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5767 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5768 via Richard Levitte]
5769
5770 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5771 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5772 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5773 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5774 [Geoff Thorpe]
5775
5776 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5777 Before:
5778 encrypt

5792 [Ben Laurie]
5793
5794 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5795 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5796
5797 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5798 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5799 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5800 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5801 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5802 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5803 [Steve Henson]
5804
5805 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5806 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5807 [Richard Levitte]
5808
5809 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5810 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5811 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5812 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5813
5814 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5815 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5816 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5817 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5818 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5819 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5820 callback.
5821 [Richard Levitte]
5822
5823 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5824 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5825 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5826 and interrupts/cancellations.
5827 [Richard Levitte]
5828
5829 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5830 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5831 [Steve Henson]
5832
5833 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5834 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5835 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5836
5837 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5838 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5839 kind of callback.
5840 [Richard Levitte]
5841
5842 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5843 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5844 than this minimum value is recommended.
5845 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5846
5847 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5848 that are easily reachable.
5849 [Richard Levitte]
5850
5851 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5852 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5853
5854 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5855
5856 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5857 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5858 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5859 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5860 [Steve Henson]
5861
5862 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5863 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5864 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5865 [Steve Henson]
5866
5867 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5868 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5869 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5870 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5871 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5872 internally such as S/MIME.
5873
5874 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5875 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5876 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5877
5878 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5879 applications.
5880 [Steve Henson]
5881
5882 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5883 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5884 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5885 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5886
5887 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5888
5889 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5890
5891 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5892 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5893 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5894 handling.
5895 [Steve Henson]
5896
5897 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5898 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5899 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5900 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5901 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5902 a window system and the like.
5903 [Richard Levitte]
5904
5905 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5906 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5907 [Geoff]
5908
5909 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5910 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5911 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5912 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5913 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5914 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5915 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5916 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5917 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5918 ENGINE structure.
5919 [Geoff]
5920
5921 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5922 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5923 tag cache.
5924 [Steve Henson]
5925
5926 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5927 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5928 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5929 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5930 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5931 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5932 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5933 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5934 [Geoff]
5935
5936 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5937 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5938 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5939 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5940 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5941 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5942 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5943 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5944 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5945 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5946 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5947 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5948 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5949 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5950 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5951 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5952 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5953 [Geoff]
5954
5955 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5956 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5957 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5958 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5959 internal engine_int.h header.
5960 [Geoff]
5961
5962 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5963 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5964 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5965 modify their own ones).
5966 [Geoff]
5967
5968 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5969 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5970 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5971 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5972 later on via ctrl() commands.
5973 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5974 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5975 structural references.
5976 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5977 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5978 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5979 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5980 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5981 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5982 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5983 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5984 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5985 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5986 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5987 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5988 [Geoff]
5989
5990 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5991 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5992 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5993 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5994 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5995 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5996 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5997 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5998 [Bodo Moeller]
5999
6000 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
6001 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
6002 [Steve Henson]
6003
6004 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
6005 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
6006 [Steve Henson]
6007
6008 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
6009 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
6010 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
6011 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
6012 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
6013 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
6014 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
6018 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
6019 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
6020 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
6021 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
6022
6023 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
6024 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
6025 generator).
6026 [Bodo Moeller]
6027
6028 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
6029
6030 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
6031 operations and provides various method functions that can also
6032 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
6033
6034 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
6035 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
6036
6037 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
6038 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
6039 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
6040
6041 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
6042 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
6043
6044 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
6045 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
6046
6047 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
6048
6049 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
6050 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
6051 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
6052 [Bodo Moeller]
6053
6054 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
6055 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
6056 [Richard Levitte]
6057
6058 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
6059 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
6060 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
6061 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
6062 is 40 of more characters long.
6063 [Steve Henson]
6064
6065 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
6066 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
6067 pointers.
6068 [Steve Henson]
6069
6070 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
6071 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
6072 [Bodo Moeller]
6073
6074 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
6075 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
6076 might.
6077 [Steve Henson]
6078
6079 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
6080
6081 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
6082 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
6083
6084 ASN1 error codes
6085 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
6086 ...
6087 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
6088 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
6089 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
6090 ...
6091 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
6092 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
6093
6094 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
6095 [Bodo Moeller]
6096
6097 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
6098 suffices.
6099 [Bodo Moeller]
6100
6101 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
6102 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
6103 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
6104 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
6105 and
6106 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
6107
6108 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
6109 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
6110
6111 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
6112 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
6113 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
6114 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
6115 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
6116 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
6117
6118 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
6119 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
6120
6121 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
6122 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6123
6124 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
6125 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
6126
6127 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
6128 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
6129 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
6130 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
6131
6132 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
6133 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
6134
6135 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
6136 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
6137
6138 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
6139 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
6140 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
6141 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
6142 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
6143 [Richard Levitte]
6144
6145 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
6146 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
6147 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
6148 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
6149 [Steve Henson]
6150
6151 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
6152 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
6153 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
6154 trust settings.
6155 [Steve Henson]
6156
6157 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
6158 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
6159 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
6160 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
6161 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
6162 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
6163 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
6164 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
6165 ocsp utility.
6166 [Steve Henson]
6167
6168 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
6169 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
6170 [Steve Henson]
6171
6172 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
6173 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
6174 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
6175 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
6176 [Steve Henson]
6177
6178 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
6179 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
6180 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
6181 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
6182 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
6183 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
6184 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
6185 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
6186 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
6187 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
6188 [Steve Henson]
6189
6190 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
6191 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
6192 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
6193 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
6194 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
6195 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
6196 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
6197 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6198
6199 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
6200 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
6201 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
6202 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
6203 [Richard Levitte]
6204
6205 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
6206 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
6207 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
6208 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
6209 opensslconf.h.
6210 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
6211 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
6212 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
6213 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
6214 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
6215 what is available.
6216 [Richard Levitte]
6217
6218 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
6219 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
6220 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
6221 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
6222 auto incremented.
6223 [Steve Henson]
6224
6225 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
6226 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
6227 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
6228 [Steve Henson]
6229
6230 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
6231 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
6232 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
6233 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
6234 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
6235 [Steve Henson]
6236
6237 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
6238 [Steve Henson]
6239
6240 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
6241 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
6242 option to ocsp utility.
6243 [Steve Henson]
6244
6245 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
6246 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
6247 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
6248 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
6249 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
6250 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
6251 the request is nonce-less.
6252 [Steve Henson]
6253
6254 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
6255 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
6256 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
6257 [Bodo Moeller]
6258
6259 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
6260 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
6261 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
6262 [Steve Henson]
6263
6264 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
6265 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
6266 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
6267 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
6268 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
6269 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6270
6271 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
6272 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
6273 appear to exist.
6274 [Steve Henson]
6275
6276 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
6277 additional certificates supplied.
6278 [Steve Henson]
6279
6280 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
6281 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
6282 signature against.
6283 [Richard Levitte]
6284
6285 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
6286 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
6287 AES OIDs.
6288
6289 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
6290 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
6291 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
6292 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
6293 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
6294 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
6295 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
6296 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
6297 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
6298
6299 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
6300 request to response.
6301 [Steve Henson]
6302
6303 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
6304 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
6305 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
6306 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
6307 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
6308 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
6309 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
6310 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
6311 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
6312 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
6313 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
6314 [Steve Henson]
6315
6316 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
6317 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
6318 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
6319 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
6320 [Steve Henson]
6321
6322 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
6323 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6324
6325 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
6326 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
6327 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
6328 [Steve Henson]
6329
6330 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
6331 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
6332 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
6333 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6334 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6335
6336 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
6337 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
6338 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
6339 [Steve Henson]
6340
6341 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
6342 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
6343 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
6344 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
6345 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
6346 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
6347 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
6348 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6349
6350 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6351 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6352 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6353 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6354 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6355 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6356 [Steve Henson]
6357
6358 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6359 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6360 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6361 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6362 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6363 printout format cleaned up.
6364 [Steve Henson]
6365
6366 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6367 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6368 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6369 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6370 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6371 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6372 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6373 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6374 [Steve Henson]
6375
6376 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6377 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6378 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6379 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6380 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6381 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6382 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6383 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6384 [Steve Henson]
6385
6386 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6387 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6388 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6389 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6390 section to use.
6391 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6392
6393 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6394 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6395 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6396 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6397 [Steve Henson]
6398
6399 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6400 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6401 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6402 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6403 in the index file.
6404 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6405
6406 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6407 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6408 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6409 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6410
6411 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6412 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6413
6414 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6415 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6416 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6417 [Steve Henson]
6418
6419 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6420 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6421 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6422 [Bodo Moeller]
6423
6424 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6425 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6426 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6427 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6428 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6429 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6430 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6431 functions are provided:
6432
6433 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6434 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6435 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6436 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6437
6438 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6439 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6440 extended allocation function is enabled.
6441 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6442 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6443 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6444
6445 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6446 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6447 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6448 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6449 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6450 [Geoff Thorpe]
6451
6452 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6453 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6454 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6455 be queried.
6456 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6457 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6458 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6459 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6460
6461 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6462 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6463 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6464 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6465 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6466 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6467 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6468 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6469 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6470 [Richard Levitte]
6471
6472 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6473 provide utility functions which an application needing
6474 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6475 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6476 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6477
6478 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6479 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6480 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6481 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6482 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6483 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6484 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6485 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6486 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6487
6488 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6489 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6490 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6491 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6492 [Steve Henson]
6493
6494 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6495 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6496 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6497 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6498 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6499 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6500 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6501 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6502 will be added elsewhere.
6503 [Steve Henson]
6504
6505 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6506 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6507 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6508 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6509 [Steve Henson]
6510
6511 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6512 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6513 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6514 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6515 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6516 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6517 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6518 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6519 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6520 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6521 to produce the required SET OF.
6522 [Steve Henson]
6523
6524 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6525 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6526 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6527 [Richard Levitte]
6528
6529 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6530 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6531 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6532 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6533 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6534 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6535 [Steve Henson]
6536
6537 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6538 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6539 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6540 [Steve Henson]
6541
6542 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6543 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6544 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6545 [Richard Levitte]
6546
6547 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6548 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6549 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6550 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6551 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6552 [Steve Henson]
6553
6554 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6555 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6556 [Steve Henson]
6557
6558 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6559 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6560 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6561 certifcates and CRLs.
6562 [Steve Henson]
6563
6564 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6565 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6566 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6567 [Steve Henson]
6568
6569 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6570 entries for variables.
6571 [Steve Henson]
6572
6573 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6574 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6575 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6576 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6577 [Bodo Moeller]
6578
6579 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6580 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6581 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6582 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6583 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6584 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6585 [Bodo Moeller]
6586
6587 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6588 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6589
6590 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6591 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6592 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6593 [Steve Henson]
6594
6595 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6596 print routines.
6597 [Steve Henson]
6598
6599 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6600 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6601 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6602 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6603 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6604 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6605 [Steve Henson]
6606
6607 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6608 [Steve Henson]
6609
6610 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6611 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6612 for now but they will eventually go away.
6613 [Steve Henson]
6614
6615 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6616 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6617 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6618 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6619 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6620 has also been converted to the new form.
6621 [Steve Henson]
6622
6623 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6624 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6625 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6626 for negative moduli.
6627 [Bodo Moeller]
6628
6629 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6630 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6631 [Bodo Moeller]
6632
6633 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6634 set.
6635 [Bodo Moeller]
6636
6637 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6638 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6639 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6640 type-specific callbacks.
6641 [Geoff Thorpe]
6642
6643 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6644 RFC 2712.
6645 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6646 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6647
6648 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6649 in sections depending on the subject.
6650 [Richard Levitte]
6651
6652 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6653 Windows.
6654 [Richard Levitte]
6655
6656 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6657 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6658 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6659 be handled deterministically).
6660 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6661
6662 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6663 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6664 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6665 [Bodo Moeller]
6666
6667 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6668 [Bodo Moeller]
6669
6670 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6671 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6672 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6673 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6674 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6675 [Bodo Moeller]
6676
6677 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6678 sign of the number in question.
6679
6680 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6681
6682 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6683 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6684 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6685 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6686 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6687 [Bodo Moeller]
6688
6689 *) New function BN_swap.
6690 [Bodo Moeller]
6691
6692 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6693 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6694 results on negative inputs.
6695 [Bodo Moeller]
6696
6697 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6698 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6699 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6700 [Bodo Moeller]
6701
6702 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6703 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6704 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6705 and add new functions:
6706
6707 BN_nnmod
6708 BN_mod_sqr
6709 BN_mod_add
6710 BN_mod_add_quick
6711 BN_mod_sub
6712 BN_mod_sub_quick
6713 BN_mod_lshift1
6714 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6715 BN_mod_lshift
6716 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6717
6718 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6719
6720 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6721 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6722
6723 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6724 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6725 be reduced modulo m.
6726 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6727
6728 #if 0
6729 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6730 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6731 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6732
6733 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6734 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6735 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6736 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6737 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6738 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6739 differing sizes.
6740 [Richard Levitte]
6741 #endif
6742
6743 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6744 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6745 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6746 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6747 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6748
6749 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6750 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6751 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6752 cause any problems.
6753 [Bodo Moeller]
6754
6755 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6756 [Richard Levitte]
6757
6758 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6759 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6760 [Richard Levitte]
6761
6762 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6763 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6764 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6765 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6766 time)
6767 [Richard Levitte]
6768
6769 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6770 [Richard Levitte]
6771
6772 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6773 [Richard Levitte]
6774
6775 *) Add the following functions:
6776
6777 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6778 ENGINE_load_chil()
6779 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6780 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6781 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6782
6783 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6784 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6785 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6786 libraries unless it's really needed.
6787
6788 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6789 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6790 declarations (they differed!).
6791 [Richard Levitte]
6792
6793 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6794 [Richard Levitte]
6795
6796 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6797 [Richard Levitte]
6798
6799 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6800 [Bodo Moeller]
6801
6802 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6803 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6804 [Richard Levitte]
6805
6806 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6807 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6808 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6809
6810 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6811 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6812 [Richard Levitte]
6813
6814 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6815 [Richard Levitte]
6816
6817 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6818 [Richard Levitte]
6819
6820 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6821 [Ben Laurie]
6822
6823 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6824 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6825 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6826
6827 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6828 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6829 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6830 different shared library filenames on each system.
6831 [Geoff Thorpe]
6832
6833 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6834 [Richard Levitte]
6835
6836 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6837 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6838 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6839 of two sections.
6840 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6841
6842 *) NCONF changes.
6843 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6844 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6845 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6846 binary backward compatibility.
6847 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6848 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6849 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6850 LDAP server.
6851 [Richard Levitte]
6852
6853 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6854 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6855 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6856 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6857 this case.
6858 [Steve Henson]
6859
6860 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6861 [Ben Laurie]
6862
6863 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6864 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6865 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6866 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6867 set.
6868 [Steve Henson]
6869
6870 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6871 [Richard Levitte]
6872
6873 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6874
6875 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6876 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6877 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6878
6879 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6880
6881 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6882
6883 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6884 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6885 [Steve Henson]
6886
6887 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6888
6889 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6890
6891 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6892 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6893
6894 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6895 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6896
6897 [Steve Henson]
6898
6899 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6900 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6901 specifications.
6902 [Steve Henson]
6903
6904 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6905 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6906 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6907 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6908
6909 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6910 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6911 [Richard Levitte]
6912
6913 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6914
6915 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6916 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6917 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6918 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6919 [Bodo Moeller]
6920
6921 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6922 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6923 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6924 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6925 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6926
6927 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6928 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6929 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6930 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6931 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6932 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6933 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6934 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6935 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6936 [Bodo Moeller]
6937
6938 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6939
6940 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6941 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6942 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6943 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6944 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6945
6946 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6947 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6948 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6949
6950 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6951
6952 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6953 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6954 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6955 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6956 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6957 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6958 [Geoff Thorpe]
6959
6960 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6961 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6962 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6963 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6964 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6965 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6966
6967 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6968 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6969 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6970
6971 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6972 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6973 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6974 EVP_cleanup().
6975 [Richard Levitte]
6976
6977 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6978 being properly terminated.
6979 [Richard Levitte]
6980
6981 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6982 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6983 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6984 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6985
6986 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6987 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6988 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6989 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6990 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6991 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6992 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6993 change.
6994 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6995
6996 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6997 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6998 [Bodo Moeller]
6999
7000 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
7001 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
7002 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
7003 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
7004 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
7005 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
7006 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
7007 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
7008
7009 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
7010 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
7011 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
7012 (see [openssl.org #212]).
7013 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
7014
7015 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
7016 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
7017 [Steve Henson]
7018
7019 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
7020
7021 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
7022 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
7023 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
7024
7025 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
7026
7027 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
7028 and get fix the header length calculation.
7029 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
7030 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
7031 Steve Henson]
7032
7033 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
7034 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
7035 assertions could call abort()).
7036 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
7037
7038 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
7039
7040 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7041 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7042 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7043 supplied buffer.
7044 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7045
7046 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
7047 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
7048 by the selection routines (PR #130).
7049 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7050
7051 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
7052 [Nils Larsch]
7053
7054 *) New option
7055 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
7056 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
7057 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
7058
7059 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
7060 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
7061 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
7062 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
7063 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
7064 applications.
7065 [Bodo Moeller]
7066
7067 *) Changes in security patch:
7068
7069 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
7070 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
7071 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
7072 F30602-01-2-0537.
7073
7074 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
7075 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
7076 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
7077 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
7078 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
7079
7080 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
7081 happen in practice.
7082 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7083
7084 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
7085 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
7086 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
7087
7088 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
7089 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
7090 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7091
7092 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
7093 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
7094 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
7095
7096 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
7097
7098 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
7099 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
7100 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
7101
7102 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
7103 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
7104
7105 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
7106 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
7107 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
7108 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
7109 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
7110 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
7111 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7112
7113 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
7114 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
7115 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
7116 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
7117 [Bodo Moeller]
7118
7119 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
7120 [Bodo Moeller]
7121
7122 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
7123 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
7124 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
7125 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
7126 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
7127 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7128
7129 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
7130 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
7131 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
7132 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
7133 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
7134 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7135
7136 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
7137 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
7138 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
7139 BN_generate_prime().)
7140
7141 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
7142 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
7143 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
7144 better.
7145 [Bodo Moeller]
7146
7147 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
7148 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
7149 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7150
7151 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
7152 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
7153 when using non-blocking I/O.
7154 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
7155
7156 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
7157 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
7158
7159 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
7160 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
7161 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7162
7163 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
7164 configuration for the versions before that.
7165 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
7166
7167 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
7168 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
7169 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
7170 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
7171 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7172
7173 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
7174 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
7175 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
7176 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7177
7178 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
7179 value is 0.
7180 [Richard Levitte]
7181
7182 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
7183 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
7184 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
7185
7186 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
7187 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
7188
7189 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
7190 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
7191 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
7192 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
7193 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
7194 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
7195 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
7196 session cache.
7197
7198 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
7199 using a local variable.
7200 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
7201
7202 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
7203 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
7204 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
7205
7206 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
7207 [Richard Levitte]
7208
7209 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
7210 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
7211
7212 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
7213 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
7214 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
7215
7216 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
7217
7218 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
7219 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
7220 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
7221 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
7222 [Bodo Moeller]
7223
7224 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
7225 present.
7226 [Steve Henson]
7227
7228 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
7229 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
7230 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
7231 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
7232 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
7233
7234 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
7235 returns early because it has nothing to do.
7236 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7237
7238 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7239 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
7240 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7241
7242 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7243 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
7244 (Use engine 'keyclient')
7245 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
7246
7247 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
7248 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
7249 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
7250 modules).
7251 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
7252
7253 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7254 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
7255 from 0.9.7.
7256 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
7257
7258 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7259 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
7260 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
7261 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
7262
7263 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
7264 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
7265 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
7266 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
7267
7268 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
7269 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
7270
7271 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
7272 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
7273 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
7274 [Bodo Moeller]
7275
7276 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
7277 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
7278 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
7279 become invalid.
7280 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
7281
7282 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
7283 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
7284 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
7285 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
7286 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
7287 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
7288 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
7289 [Bodo Moeller]
7290
7291 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
7292 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
7293 one of the SSL handshake functions.
7294 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
7295
7296 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
7297 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
7298 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
7299 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
7300 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
7301 the client will at least see that alert.
7302 [Bodo Moeller]
7303
7304 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
7305 correctly.
7306 [Bodo Moeller]
7307
7308 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
7309 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
7310 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
7311
7312 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
7313 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
7314 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
7315 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
7316 HelloRequest.
7317
7318 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
7319 before just sending a HelloRequest.
7320 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
7321
7322 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
7323 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
7324 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
7325 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
7326 may leak via logfiles.)
7327
7328 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
7329 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
7330 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
7331 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
7332 the legal range.
7333 [Bodo Moeller]
7334
7335 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
7336 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
7337 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7338
7339 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
7340 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
7341 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
7342 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
7343 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
7344 [Bodo Moeller]
7345
7346 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
7347 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
7348
7349 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7350 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7351 followed by modular reduction.
7352 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7353
7354 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7355 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7356 [Bodo Moeller]
7357
7358 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7359 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7360 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7361 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7362 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7363
7364 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7365 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7366
7367 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7368 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7369 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7370
7371 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7372 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7373 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7374 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7375 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7376 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7377 automatically.
7378 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7379
7380 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7381 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7382 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7383 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7384 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7385
7386 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7387 [Andy Polyakov]
7388
7389 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7390 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7391 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7392 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7393 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7394 to allow the necessary settings.
7395 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7396
7397 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7398 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7399 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7400 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7401 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7402
7403 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7404 dh->length and always used
7405
7406 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7407
7408 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7409 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7410 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7411 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7412 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7413 dh->length.
7414
7415 So switch back to
7416
7417 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7418
7419 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7420 otherwise.
7421 [Bodo Moeller]
7422
7423 *) In
7424
7425 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7426 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7427 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7428 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7429
7430 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7431 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7432 always reject numbers >= n.
7433 [Bodo Moeller]
7434
7435 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7436 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7437 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7438 variable) is not atomic.
7439 [Bodo Moeller]
7440
7441 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7442 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7443 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7444 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7445
7446 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7447 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7448
7449 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7450 little-endian MIPS.
7451 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7452
7453 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7454 [Richard Levitte]
7455
7456 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7457
7458 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7459 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7460 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7461 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7462 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7463 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7464 to traverse all of 'state'.
7465
7466 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7467 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7468 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7469
7470 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7471 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7472
7473 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7474 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7475 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7476 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7477 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7478 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7479 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7480 further strengthens the PRNG.
7481 [Bodo Moeller]
7482
7483 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7484 [Andy Polyakov]
7485
7486 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7487 an error message in this case.
7488 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7489
7490 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7491 [Steve Henson]
7492
7493 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7494 positive and less than q.
7495 [Bodo Moeller]
7496
7497 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7498 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7499 that itself.
7500 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7501
7502 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7503 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7504 [Bodo Moeller]
7505
7506 *) Fix OAEP check.
7507 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7508
7509 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7510 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7511 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7512 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7513 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7514 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7515 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7516 paper.)
7517
7518 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7519 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7520 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7521 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7522
7523 Both problems are now fixed.
7524 [Bodo Moeller]
7525
7526 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7527 (previously it was 1024).
7528 [Bodo Moeller]
7529
7530 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7531 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7532 [Steve Henson]
7533
7534 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7535 [Steve Henson]
7536
7537 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7538 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7539 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7540 [Steve Henson]
7541
7542 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7543 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7544 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7545 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7546 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7547 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7548 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7549 environment variables.
7550
7551 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7552 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7553 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7554 [Bodo Moeller]
7555
7556 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7557 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7558 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7559 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7560 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7561 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7562 [Bodo Moeller]
7563
7564 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7565 versions of 'test'.
7566 [Bodo Moeller]
7567
7568 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7569
7570 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7571 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7572
7573 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7574 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7575 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7576 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7577 CygWin.
7578 [Richard Levitte]
7579
7580 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7581 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7582 amount of data available.
7583 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7584 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7585
7586 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7587 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7588 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7589 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7590 [Bodo Moeller]
7591
7592 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7593 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7594 and UnixWare.
7595 [Richard Levitte]
7596
7597 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7598 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7599 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7600 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
7601 [Ulf Moeller]
7602
7603 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7604 [Andy Polyakov]
7605
7606 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7607 [Richard Levitte]
7608
7609 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7610 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7611 [Steve Henson]
7612 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7613
7614 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7615 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7616 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7617 (but broken) behaviour.
7618 [Steve Henson]
7619
7620 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7621 it when found.
7622 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7623
7624 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7625 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7626 [Bodo Moeller]
7627
7628 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7629 did not exist.
7630 [Bodo Moeller]
7631
7632 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7633 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7634
7635 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7636 [Richard Levitte]
7637
7638 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7639 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7640 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7641
7642 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7643 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7644 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7645 [Steve Henson]
7646
7647 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7648 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7649 [Ulf Moeller]
7650
7651 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7652 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7653
7654 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7655
7656 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7657
7658 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7659 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7660 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7661 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7662 [Bodo Moeller]
7663
7664 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7665 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7666
7667 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7668 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7669 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7670
7671 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7672 was empty.
7673 [Steve Henson]
7674 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7675
7676 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7677 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7678 but the code is actually correct.
7679 [Steve Henson]
7680
7681 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7682 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7683 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7684 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7685 and leaves the highest bit random.
7686 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7687
7688 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7689 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7690 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7691 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7692 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7693 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7694 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7695 [Bodo Moeller]
7696
7697 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7698 [Ulf Moeller]
7699
7700 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7701 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7702 [Steve Henson]
7703
7704 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7705 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7706 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7707 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7708 headers.
7709 [Richard Levitte]
7710
7711 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7712 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7713 and break the signature.
7714 [Steve Henson]
7715 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7716
7717 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7718 DH ciphersuites.
7719 [Steve Henson]
7720
7721 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7722 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7723 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7724 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7725 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7726 [Bodo Moeller]
7727
7728 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7729 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7730
7731 *) ./config script fixes.
7732 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7733
7734 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7735 [Bodo Moeller]
7736
7737 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7738 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7739 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7740 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7741 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7742
7743 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7744 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7745 [Bodo Moeller]
7746
7747 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7748 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7749 [Steve Henson]
7750
7751 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7752 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7753 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7754 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7755
7756 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7757 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7758
7759 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7760 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7761 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7762 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7763 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7764
7765 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7766 [Bodo Moeller]
7767
7768 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7769 [Ulf Möller]
7770
7771 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7772 [Ulf Möller]
7773
7774 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7775 [Bodo Moeller]
7776
7777 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7778 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7779 [Bodo Moeller]
7780
7781 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7782 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7783 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7784 result of the server certificate verification.)
7785 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7786
7787 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7788 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7789 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7790 [Bodo Moeller]
7791
7792 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7793 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7794 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7795 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7796 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7797 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7798 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7799 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7800 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7801 [Bodo Moeller]
7802
7803 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7804 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7805 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7806 happening the other way round.
7807 [Geoff Thorpe]
7808
7809 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7810 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7811 [Bodo Moeller]
7812
7813 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7814 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7815 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7816 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7817 [Richard Levitte]
7818
7819 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7820 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7821
7822 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7823
7824 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7825 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7826 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7827 that.
7828
7829 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7830
7831 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7832
7833 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7834 static ones.
7835 [Richard Levitte]
7836
7837 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7838
7839 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7840 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7841 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7842 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7843 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7844
7845 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7846 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7847 matter what.
7848 [Richard Levitte]
7849
7850 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7851 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7852
7853 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7854
7855 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7856 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7857 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7858 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7859 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7860 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7861 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7862 by the Finished messages.
7863 [Bodo Moeller]
7864
7865 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7866 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7867
7868 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7869 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7870 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7871 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7872 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7873 appropriately.
7874 [Steve Henson]
7875
7876 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7877 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7878 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7879 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7880 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7881 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7882 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7883 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7884 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7885 together.
7886 [Steve Henson]
7887
7888 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7889 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7890 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7891 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7892
7893 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7894 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7895 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7896 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7897 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7898 the answer.
7899
7900 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7901 been tested well enough.
7902 [Richard Levitte]
7903
7904 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7905 it can return incorrect results.
7906 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7907 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7908 [Bodo Moeller]
7909
7910 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7911 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7912 include zero length content when signing messages.
7913 [Steve Henson]
7914
7915 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7916 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7917 [Bodo Möller]
7918
7919 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7920 [Richard Levitte]
7921
7922 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7923 wrong sign.
7924 [Ulf Möller]
7925
7926 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7927 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7928 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7929 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7930 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7931 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7932 [Richard Levitte]
7933
7934 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7935 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7936
7937 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7938 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7939
7940 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7941 random number < q in the DSA library.
7942 [Ulf Möller]
7943
7944 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7945 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7946 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7947 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7948 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7949 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7950 just makes things more complicated.)
7951 [Bodo Moeller]
7952
7953 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7954 from EGD.
7955 [Ben Laurie]
7956
7957 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7958 work better on such systems.
7959 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7960
7961 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7962 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7963 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7964 [Steve Henson]
7965
7966 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7967 if there was more than one signature.
7968 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7969
7970 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7971 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7972 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7973 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7974 [Richard Levitte]
7975
7976 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7977 rather than always using the current time.
7978 [Steve Henson]
7979
7980 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7981 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7982 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7983 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7984 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7985 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7986
7987 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7988 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7989
7990 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7991
7992 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7993 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7994 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7995 the same hash value.
7996
7997 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7998 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7999 structure. This will break anything that messed round
8000 with X509_STORE internally.
8001
8002 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
8003 exact match, rather than just subject name.
8004
8005 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
8006 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
8007 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
8008 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
8009 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
8010 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
8011 entirely (maybe later...).
8012
8013 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
8014
8015 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
8016 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
8017 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
8018 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
8019 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
8020 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
8021 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
8022 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
8023
8024 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
8025 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
8026
8027 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
8028 to customise the verify behaviour.
8029 [Steve Henson]
8030
8031 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
8032 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
8033 [Steve Henson]
8034
8035 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
8036 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
8037 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
8038 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
8039 request is improperly encoded.
8040 [Steve Henson]
8041
8042 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
8043 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
8044 BIO_write(b, ...).
8045
8046 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
8047 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
8048
8049 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
8050 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
8051 words set to zero.)
8052 [Bodo Moeller]
8053
8054 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
8055 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
8056 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
8057 [Bodo Moeller]
8058
8059 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
8060 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
8061 BIO/fp routines also added.
8062 [Steve Henson]
8063
8064 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
8065 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
8066
8067 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
8068 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
8069 demos/state_machine.
8070 [Ben Laurie]
8071
8072 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
8073 generation and verification.
8074 [Steve Henson]
8075
8076 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
8077 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
8078 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
8079 encode and decode it manually.
8080 [Steve Henson]
8081
8082 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
8083 compile under VC++.
8084 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
8085
8086 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
8087 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
8088 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
8089 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
8090
8091 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
8092 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
8093 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
8094 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
8095 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
8096 [Steve Henson]
8097
8098 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
8099 [Richard Levitte]
8100
8101 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
8102 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
8103 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
8104
8105 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
8106 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
8107 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
8108 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
8109 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
8110 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
8111 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
8112 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
8113
8114 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
8115 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
8116
8117 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
8118
8119 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
8120 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
8121 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
8122
8123 [Richard Levitte]
8124
8125 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
8126 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
8127 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
8128 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
8129 [Richard Levitte]
8130
8131 *) MD4 implemented.
8132 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
8133
8134 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
8135 [Richard Levitte]
8136
8137 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
8138 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
8139 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
8140 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
8141 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
8142 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
8143 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
8144 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
8145 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
8146 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
8147 short or long names are found.
8148 [Steve Henson]
8149
8150 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
8151 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
8152
8153 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
8154 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
8155 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
8156 version rollback attacks was not effective.
8157
8158 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
8159 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
8160 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
8161 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
8162 [Bodo Moeller]
8163
8164 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
8165 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
8166 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
8167 [Richard Levitte]
8168
8169 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
8170 these print out strings and name structures based on various
8171 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
8172 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
8173 to allow the various flags to be set.
8174 [Steve Henson]
8175
8176 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
8177 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
8178 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
8179 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
8180 dates to be checked.
8181 [Steve Henson]
8182
8183 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
8184 negative public key encodings) on by default,
8185 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
8186 [Steve Henson]
8187
8188 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
8189 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
8190 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
8191 [Steve Henson]
8192
8193 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
8194 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
8195 [Bodo Moeller]
8196
8197 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
8198 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
8199 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
8200 are always statically linked for now, but there are
8201 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
8202 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
8203 [Richard Levitte]
8204
8205 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
8206 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
8207 Random Numbers.
8208 [Ulf Möller]
8209
8210 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
8211 DSA key.
8212 [Steve Henson]
8213
8214 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
8215 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
8216 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
8217 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
8218 form signing output easier to verify.
8219 [Steve Henson]
8220
8221 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
8222 [Steve Henson]
8223
8224 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
8225 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
8226 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
8227 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
8228 are needed because all other string types have virtually
8229 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
8230 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
8231 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
8232 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
8233 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
8234 [Steve Henson]
8235
8236 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
8237
8238 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
8239 the syntax given in objects.README.
8240 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
8241 obj_mac.h.
8242 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
8243 obj_mac.h.
8244
8245 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
8246 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
8247 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
8248 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
8249 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
8250 consistent name changes.
8251 [Richard Levitte]
8252
8253 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
8254 [Bodo Moeller]
8255
8256 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
8257 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
8258 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
8259 environment variable, or the default random state file.
8260 [Richard Levitte]
8261
8262 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
8263 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
8264 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
8265 of safestack.h .
8266 [Steve Henson]
8267
8268 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
8269 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
8270 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
8271 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
8272 [Steve Henson]
8273
8274 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
8275 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
8276 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
8277 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
8278 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
8279 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
8280 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
8281 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
8282 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
8283 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
8284 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
8285 [Steve Henson]
8286
8287 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
8288 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
8289 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
8290 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
8291 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
8292 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
8293 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
8294 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
8295 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
8296 algorithm to openssl-dev.
8297 [Steve Henson]
8298
8299 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
8300 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
8301 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
8302 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
8303
8304 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
8305 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
8306 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
8307 omit any duplicate addresses.
8308 [Steve Henson]
8309
8310 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
8311 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
8312 [Bodo Moeller]
8313
8314 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
8315 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
8316 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
8317 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
8318 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
8319 [Bodo Moeller]
8320
8321 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
8322 software:
8323 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
8324 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
8325 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
8326 Free => OPENSSL_free
8327 [Richard Levitte]
8328
8329 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
8330 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
8331 [Bodo Moeller]
8332
8333 *) CygWin32 support.
8334 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
8335
8336 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
8337 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
8338 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
8339 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
8340 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
8341 approach.
8342 [Geoff Thorpe]
8343
8344 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
8345 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
8346 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
8347 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
8348 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8349 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8350 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8351 [Geoff Thorpe]
8352
8353 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8354 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8355 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8356 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8357 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8358 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8359 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8360 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8361 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8362 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8363 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8364 [Bodo Moeller]
8365
8366 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8367 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8368 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8369 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8370 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8371
8372 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8373 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8374 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8375 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8376 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8377
8378 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8379 ciphers.
8380
8381 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8382 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8383 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8384 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8385
8386 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8387
8388 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8389 of macros.
8390
8391 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8392 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8393 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8394 flags.
8395
8396 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8397 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8398 any installed hardware versions can.
8399 [Steve Henson]
8400
8401 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8402 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8403 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8404 number.
8405 [Bodo Moeller]
8406
8407 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8408 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8409 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8410 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8411 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8412
8413 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8414 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8415 [Steve Henson]
8416
8417 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8418 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8419 [Richard Levitte]
8420
8421 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8422 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8423 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8424 features.
8425 [Steve Henson]
8426
8427 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8428 [Ulf Möller]
8429
8430 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8431 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8432 but no ssl client purpose.
8433 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8434
8435 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8436 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8437 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8438 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8439 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8440 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8441 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8442 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8443 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8444 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8445 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8446 [Steve Henson]
8447
8448 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8449 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8450 be obtained from the error queue.
8451 [Bodo Moeller]
8452
8453 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8454 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8455 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8456 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8457 [Bodo Moeller]
8458
8459 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8460 [Ulf Möller]
8461
8462 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8463 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8464 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8465 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8466 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8467 [Geoff Thorpe]
8468
8469 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8470 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8471 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8472 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8473 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8474 [Geoff Thorpe]
8475
8476 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8477 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8478 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8479 may not be NULL.
8480 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8481
8482 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8483 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8484 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8485 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8486 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8487 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8488 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8489 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8490 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8491 or "the configuration storage API"...
8492
8493 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8494
8495 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8496 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8497
8498 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8499
8500 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8501
8502 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8503 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8504 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8505 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8506 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8507 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8508 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8509
8510 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8511 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8512 [Richard Levitte]
8513
8514 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8515 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8516 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8517 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8518 [Bodo Moeller]
8519
8520 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8521 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8522 them in a portable way.
8523 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8524
8525 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8526
8527 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8528
8529 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8530 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8531
8532 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8533 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8534 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8535 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8536
8537 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8538 was larger than the MD block size.
8539 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8540
8541 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8542 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8543 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8544 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8545 components.
8546 [Steve Henson]
8547
8548 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8549 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8550 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8551
8552 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8553 discouraged.
8554 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8555
8556 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8557 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8558 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8559 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8560 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8561 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8562
8563 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8564 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8565
8566 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8567 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8568 [Bodo Moeller]
8569
8570 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8571 [Bodo Moeller]
8572
8573 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8574 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8575 its own key.
8576 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8577 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8578 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8579 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8580 [Bodo Moeller]
8581
8582 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8583 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8584 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8585 does not suppress any output.
8586 [Richard Levitte]
8587
8588 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8589 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8590 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8591 with all the associated security issues.
8592
8593 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8594 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8595 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8596 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8597 use the value in the default purpose.
8598 [Steve Henson]
8599
8600 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8601 and fix a memory leak.
8602 [Steve Henson]
8603
8604 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8605 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8606 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8607 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8608 [Bodo Moeller]
8609
8610 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8611 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8612 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8613 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8614 [Bodo Moeller]
8615
8616 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8617 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8618 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8619 [Bodo Moeller]
8620
8621 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8622 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8623 [Bodo Moeller]
8624
8625 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8626 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8627 which was free.
8628 [Steve Henson]
8629
8630 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8631 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8632 [Bodo Moeller]
8633
8634 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8635 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8636 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8637 [Bodo Moeller]
8638
8639 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8640 number generation fails.
8641 [Bodo Moeller]
8642
8643 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8644 [Bodo Moeller]
8645
8646 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8647 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8648
8649 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8650 [Ulf Möller]
8651
8652 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8653 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8654
8655 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8656 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8657
8658 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8659
8660 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8661 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8662 [Steve Henson]
8663
8664 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8665 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8666
8667 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8668 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8669 [Ulf Möller]
8670
8671 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8672 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8673 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8674 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8675 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8676 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8677
8678 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8679 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8680 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8681 for example.
8682 [Steve Henson]
8683
8684 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8685 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8686 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8687 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8688 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8689 counter, some don't.)
8690 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8691 counters or duplicate objects.
8692 [Steve Henson]
8693
8694 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8695 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8696 [Steve Henson]
8697
8698 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8699 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8700 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8701
8702 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8703 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8704 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8705 or -rand.
8706 [Ulf Möller]
8707
8708 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8709 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8710 [Steve Henson]
8711
8712 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8713 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8714 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8715 cipher list.
8716 [Steve Henson]
8717
8718 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8719 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8720 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8721 [Steve Henson]
8722
8723 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8724 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8725 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8726 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8727 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8728 should work without changes.
8729 [Richard Levitte]
8730
8731 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8732 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8733 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8734 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8735 must be defined. E.g.,
8736 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8737 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8738 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8739 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8740
8741 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8742 record layer.
8743 [Bodo Moeller]
8744
8745 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8746 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8747 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8748 [Steve Henson]
8749
8750 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8751 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8752 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8753 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8754 [Steve Henson]
8755
8756 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8757 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8758 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8759 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8760 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8761 is prompted for as usual.
8762 [Steve Henson]
8763
8764 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8765 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8766 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8767 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8768
8769 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8770 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8771 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8772 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8773 [Steve Henson]
8774
8775 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8776 [Andy Polyakov]
8777
8778 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8779 of seed file.
8780 [Steve Henson]
8781
8782 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8783 [Bodo Moeller]
8784
8785 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8786 [Steve Henson]
8787
8788 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8789 bits.
8790 [Ulf Möller]
8791
8792 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8793 [Ulf Möller]
8794
8795 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8796 [Andy Polyakov]
8797
8798 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8799 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8800 [Ulf Möller]
8801
8802 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8803 options to produce them.
8804 [Steve Henson]
8805
8806 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8807 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8808 [Ulf Möller]
8809
8810 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8811 for p == 0.
8812 [Ulf Möller]
8813
8814 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8815 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8816 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8817 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8818 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8819 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8820 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8821 [Steve Henson]
8822
8823 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8824 [Steve Henson]
8825
8826 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8827 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8828 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8829 [Bodo Moeller]
8830
8831 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8832 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8833
8834 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8835 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8836 [Ulf Möller]
8837
8838 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8839 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8840 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8841 has already seen).
8842 [Bodo Moeller]
8843
8844 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8845 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8846
8847 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8848 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8849 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8850 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8851 generation becomes much faster.
8852
8853 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8854 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8855 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8856 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8857 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8858 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8859 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8860 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8861 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8862 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8863 [Bodo Moeller]
8864
8865 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8866 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8867 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8868 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8869 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8870 trial division stage.
8871 [Bodo Moeller]
8872
8873 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8874 as ASN1_TIME.
8875 [Steve Henson]
8876
8877 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8878 [Steve Henson]
8879
8880 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8881 [Ulf Möller]
8882
8883 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8884 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8885 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8886 the comments.
8887 [Ulf Möller]
8888
8889 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8890 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8891 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8892 [Bodo Moeller]
8893
8894 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8895 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8896 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8897 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8898
8899 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8900 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8901 [Steve Henson]
8902
8903 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8904 [Ulf Möller]
8905
8906 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8907 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8908 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8909 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8910 [Ulf Möller]
8911
8912 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8913 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8914 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8915 [Ulf Möller]
8916
8917 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8918 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8919 (instead of parameters) in future.
8920 [Steve Henson]
8921
8922 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8923 when a new cipher list is set.
8924 [Steve Henson]
8925
8926 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8927 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8928 wrong.
8929
8930 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8931 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8932 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8933
8934 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8935 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8936 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8937 an error is flagged.
8938
8939 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8940 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8941 the readability was also increased :-)
8942 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8943
8944 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8945 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8946 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8947 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8948 as the root CA.
8949 [Steve Henson]
8950
8951 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8952 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8953 [Steve Henson]
8954
8955 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8956 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8957 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8958 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8959 instead.
8960
8961 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8962 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8963 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8964 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8965 because they handle more complex structures.)
8966 [Steve Henson]
8967
8968 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8969 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8970 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8971 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8972
8973 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8974 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8975 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8976 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8977 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8978 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8979 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8980 [Ulf Möller]
8981
8982 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8983 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8984 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8985 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8986 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8987 [Bodo Moeller]
8988
8989 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8990 [Bodo Moeller]
8991
8992 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8993 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8994 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8995 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8996 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8997 to use this.
8998
8999 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
9000 code.
9001 [Steve Henson]
9002
9003 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
9004 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
9005 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
9006 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
9007 [Steve Henson]
9008
9009 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
9010 [Ulf Möller]
9011
9012 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
9013 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
9014 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
9015 international characters are used.
9016
9017 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
9018 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
9019 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
9020 in ASN1 order.
9021 [Steve Henson]
9022
9023 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
9024 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
9025 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
9026 request.
9027
9028 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
9029 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
9030 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
9031 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
9032 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
9033 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
9034
9035 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
9036 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
9037 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
9038 be handled by the string table functions.
9039
9040 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
9041 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
9042 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
9043 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
9044 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
9045 types at all.
9046 [Steve Henson]
9047
9048 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
9049 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
9050 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
9051 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
9052 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
9053
9054 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
9055 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
9056 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
9057 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
9058 [Bodo Moeller]
9059
9060 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
9061 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
9062 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
9063 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
9064 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
9065 SHA1.
9066 [Andy Polyakov]
9067
9068 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
9069 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
9070 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
9071 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
9072 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
9073 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
9074 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
9075 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
9076
9077 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
9078 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
9079 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
9080 [Steve Henson]
9081
9082 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
9083 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
9084 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
9085 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
9086 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
9087 support to pkcs8 application.
9088 [Steve Henson]
9089
9090 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
9091 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
9092 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
9093 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
9094 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
9095 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
9096 [Bodo Moeller]
9097
9098 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
9099 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
9100 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
9101 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
9102 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
9103 consistency.
9104 [Bodo Moeller]
9105
9106 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
9107 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
9108 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
9109 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
9110 example.
9111 [Steve Henson]
9112
9113 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
9114 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
9115 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
9116 and any application specific purposes.
9117
9118 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
9119 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
9120 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
9121 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
9122 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
9123 if the certificate is self signed.
9124 [Steve Henson]
9125
9126 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
9127 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
9128 [Steve Henson]
9129
9130 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
9131 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
9132 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
9133 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
9134 [Steve Henson]
9135
9136 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
9137 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
9138 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
9139 Update documentation.
9140 [Steve Henson]
9141
9142 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
9143 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
9144 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
9145 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
9146 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
9147 [Steve Henson]
9148
9149 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
9150 for details.
9151 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
9152
9153 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
9154 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
9155 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
9156 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
9157 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
9158 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
9159 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
9160 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
9161 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
9162 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
9163
9164 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
9165
9166 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9167 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
9168 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
9169 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
9170 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
9171
9172 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
9173 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
9174 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
9175 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
9176 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
9177 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
9178 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
9179 request additional information:
9180 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
9181 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
9182
9183 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
9184 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
9185 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
9186 options.
9187
9188 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
9189 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
9190
9191 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
9192 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
9193 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
9194
9195 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
9196 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
9197
9198 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
9199 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
9200 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
9201 algorithm.
9202 [Steve Henson]
9203
9204 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
9205 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
9206 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
9207
9208 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
9209 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
9210 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
9211 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
9212 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
9213 included in OpenSSL.
9214 [Steve Henson]
9215
9216 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
9217 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
9218 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
9219 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
9220 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
9221 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
9222 [Bodo Moeller]
9223
9224 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
9225 PKCS12 structure.
9226 [Steve Henson]
9227
9228 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
9229 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
9230 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
9231 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
9232 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
9233 structure.
9234 [Steve Henson]
9235
9236 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
9237 need initialising.
9238 [Steve Henson]
9239
9240 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
9241 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
9242 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
9243 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
9244 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
9245 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
9246 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
9247 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
9248 be maintained manually.
9249
9250 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
9251 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
9252 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
9253 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
9254 work because people forget to call this function]
9255 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
9256 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
9257 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
9258 [Steve Henson]
9259
9260 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
9261 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
9262 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
9263 should be discouraged from doing it.
9264 [Ben Laurie]
9265
9266 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
9267 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
9268 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
9269 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
9270 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
9271 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
9272 [Steve Henson]
9273
9274 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
9275 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
9276 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
9277
9278 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
9279 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
9280 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
9281
9282 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
9283 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
9284 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
9285 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
9286 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
9287 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
9288
9289 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
9290 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
9291 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
9292
9293 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
9294 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
9295 and vice versa.
9296
9297 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
9298 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
9299 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
9300 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
9301 [Steve Henson]
9302
9303 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
9304 [Steve Henson]
9305
9306 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
9307 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
9308 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
9309 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
9310 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
9311 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
9312 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
9313 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
9314 keys so we should be OK.
9315
9316 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
9317 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
9318 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
9319 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
9320 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
9321 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
9322 stay in the name of compatibility.
9323
9324 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
9325 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
9326 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
9327
9328 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
9329 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
9330 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
9331 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
9332 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
9333 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
9334 supplied key).
9335 [Steve Henson]
9336
9337 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
9338 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
9339 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
9340 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
9341 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
9342 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
9343 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
9344 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
9345 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
9346 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
9347 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
9348 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9349 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9350 [Steve Henson]
9351
9352 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9353 [Steve Henson]
9354
9355 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9356 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9357 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9358 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9359 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9360 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9361 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9362 openssl verify ss.pem
9363 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9364 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9365 is OK.
9366 [Steve Henson]
9367
9368 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9369 (and add it to external session representation).
9370 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9371 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9372 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9373 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9374 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9375 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9376 security holes.
9377 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9378
9379 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9380 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9381 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9382 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9383
9384 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9385 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9386 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9387 [Steve Henson]
9388
9389 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9390 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9391 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9392 code.
9393 [Steve Henson]
9394
9395 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9396 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9397 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9398
9399 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9400 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9401 certificate auxiliary information.
9402 [Steve Henson]
9403
9404 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9405 the 'enc' command.
9406 [Steve Henson]
9407
9408 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9409 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9410 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9411 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9412 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9413 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9414 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9415 [Richard Levitte]
9416
9417 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9418 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9419 [Steve Henson]
9420
9421 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9422 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9423 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9424 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9425 [Steve Henson]
9426
9427 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9428 [Steve Henson]
9429
9430 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9431 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9432 [Steve Henson]
9433
9434 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9435 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9436 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9437 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9438 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9439 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9440 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9441 using the new 'x509' options.
9442
9443 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9444 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9445 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9446 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9447 for all purposes.
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9451 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9452 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9453 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9454 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9455 [Mark Cox]
9456
9457 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9458 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9459 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9460 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9461 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9462 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9463 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9464 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9465 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9466 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9467 [Steve Henson]
9468
9469 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9470 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9471 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9472 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9473 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9474 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9475 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9476 [Steve Henson]
9477
9478 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9479 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9480 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9481 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9482 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9483 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9484 openssl.cnf for more info.
9485 [Steve Henson]
9486
9487 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9488 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9489 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9490 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9491 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9492 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9493 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9494 md should be large enough anyway.
9495 [Bodo Moeller]
9496
9497 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9498 for handling the random seed file.
9499
9500 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9501 ca,
9502 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9503 s_client,
9504 s_server,
9505 x509 (when signing).
9506 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9507 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9508 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9509
9510 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9511 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9512 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9513 that support '-rand'.
9514 [Bodo Moeller]
9515
9516 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9517 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9518 [Bodo Moeller]
9519
9520 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9521 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9522 [Bill Perry]
9523
9524 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9525 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9526 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9527 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9528 is suitable.
9529 [Steve Henson]
9530
9531 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9532 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9533 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9534 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9535 [Steve Henson]
9536
9537 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9538 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9539 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9540 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9541 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9542 print out all the purposes.
9543 [Steve Henson]
9544
9545 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9546 functions.
9547 [Steve Henson]
9548
9549 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9550 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9551 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9552 single function call.
9553 [Steve Henson]
9554
9555 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9556 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9557 [Andy Polyakov]
9558
9559 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9560 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9561 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9562 [Steve Henson]
9563
9564 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9565 when producing the local key id.
9566 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9567
9568 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9569 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9570 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9571 "server.pem".
9572 [Steve Henson]
9573
9574 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9575 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9576 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9577 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9578 [Steve Henson]
9579
9580 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9581 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9582 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9583 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9584
9585 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9586 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9587 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9588 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9589
9590 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9591 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9592 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9593 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9594 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9595 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9596 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9597 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9598 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9599 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9600 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9601 trivial: move one line.
9602 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9603
9604 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9605 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9606 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9607 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9608 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9609 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9610 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9611 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9612 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9613 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9614 with an event loop for example.
9615 [Steve Henson]
9616
9617 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9618 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9619 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9620 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9621 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9622 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9623 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9624 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9625 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9626 [Steve Henson]
9627
9628 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9629 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9630 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9631 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9632 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9633 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9634 [Steve Henson]
9635
9636 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9637 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9638 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9639 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9640
9641 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9642 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9643 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9644 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9645 key generation.
9646 [Steve Henson]
9647
9648 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9649 (still largely untested)
9650 [Bodo Moeller]
9651
9652 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9653 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9654 [Steve Henson]
9655
9656 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9657 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9658 [Steve Henson]
9659
9660 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9661 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9662 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9663 [Bodo Moeller]
9664
9665 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9666 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9667 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9668 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9669 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9670 [Steve Henson]
9671
9672 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9673 [Andy Polyakov]
9674
9675 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9676 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9677 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9678 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9679 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9680 in ca.
9681 [Steve Henson]
9682
9683 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9684 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9685 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9686 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9687 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9688 [Steve Henson]
9689
9690 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9691 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9692 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9693 are otherwise ignored at present.
9694 [Steve Henson]
9695
9696 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9697 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9698 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9699 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9700 copied until the next read.
9701 [Steve Henson]
9702
9703 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9704 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9705 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9706 [Steve Henson]
9707
9708 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9709 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9710 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9711 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9712 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9713 associated functions.
9714 [Steve Henson]
9715
9716 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9717 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9718 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9719 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9720 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9721 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9722 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9723 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9724 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9725 memory BIOs.
9726 [Steve Henson]
9727
9728 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9729 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9730 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9731 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9732 [Bodo Moeller]
9733
9734 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9735 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9736 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9737 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9738 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9739 functionality.
9740 [Steve Henson]
9741
9742 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9743 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9744 under Win32.
9745 [Steve Henson]
9746
9747 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9748 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9749 extensions to be obtained and added.
9750 [Steve Henson]
9751
9752 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9753 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9754 [Bodo Moeller]
9755
9756 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9757
9758 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9759 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9760
9761 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9762 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9763
9764 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9765 program.
9766 [Steve Henson]
9767
9768 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9769 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9770 DH parameters contain its length).
9771
9772 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9773 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9774 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9775 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9776 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9777 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9778 utter importance to use
9779 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9780 or
9781 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9782 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9783 attacks may become possible!
9784 [Bodo Moeller]
9785
9786 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9787 [Bodo Moeller]
9788
9789 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9790 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9791 [Steve Henson]
9792
9793 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9794 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9795 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9796 or long name.
9797 [Steve Henson]
9798
9799 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9800 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9801 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9802 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9803 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9804 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9805 private key operations.
9806 [Steve Henson]
9807
9808 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9809 [Andy Polyakov]
9810
9811 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9812 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9813 to
9814 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9815 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9816 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9817 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9818 the password callback is called.
9819 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9820
9821 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9822
9823 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9824 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9825 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9826 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9827 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9828 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9829 this will work.
9830
9831 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9832 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9833 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9834 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9835 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9836 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9837 [Bodo Moeller]
9838
9839 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9840 [Andy Polyakov]
9841
9842 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9843 delete an unused file.
9844 [Ulf Möller]
9845
9846 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9847 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9848 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9849 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9850 [Steve Henson]
9851
9852 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9853 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9854 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9855 of an error.
9856 [Bodo Moeller]
9857
9858 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9859 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9860 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9861
9862 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9863 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9864 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9865 comparison" warnings.
9866 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9867 [Steve Henson]
9868
9869 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9870 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9871 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9872 [Steve Henson]
9873
9874 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9875 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9876
9877 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9878 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9879
9880 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9881 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9882 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9883
9884 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9885 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9886 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9887 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9888 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9889 this bug.
9890 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9891
9892 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9893 The interface is as follows:
9894 Applications can use
9895 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9896 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9897 "off" is now the default.
9898 The library internally uses
9899 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9900 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9901 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9902
9903 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9904 even the default) are now avoided.
9905
9906 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9907 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9908 than just having a counter.
9909
9910 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9911
9912 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9913 extensions.
9914 [Bodo Moeller]
9915
9916 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9917 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9918 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9919 Initial "mode" flags are:
9920
9921 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9922 a single record has been written.
9923 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9924 retries use the same buffer location.
9925 (But all of the contents must be
9926 copied!)
9927 [Bodo Moeller]
9928
9929 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9930 worked.
9931
9932 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9933 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9934
9935 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9936 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9937 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9938 [Steve Henson]
9939
9940 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9941 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9942 test programs.
9943 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9944
9945 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9946 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9947 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9948 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9949 point to the end.
9950 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9951 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9952
9953 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9954 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9955 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9956 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9957 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9958 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9959 [Steve Henson]
9960
9961 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9962 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9963 necessary function names.
9964 [Steve Henson]
9965
9966 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9967 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9968 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9969 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9970 [Bodo Moeller]
9971
9972 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9973 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9974 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9975 [Steve Henson]
9976
9977 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9978 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9979 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9980 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9981 such programs?)
9982 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9983 need locks.
9984 [Bodo Moeller]
9985
9986 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9987 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9988 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9989 [Bodo Moeller]
9990
9991 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9992 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9993 appropriate.
9994 [Bodo Moeller]
9995
9996 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9997 for the encoded length.
9998 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9999
10000 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
10001 [Steve Henson]
10002
10003 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
10004 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
10005 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
10006 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
10007 [Steve Henson]
10008
10009 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
10010 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
10011 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10012
10013 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
10014 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
10015 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
10016 unusual formatting.
10017 [Steve Henson]
10018
10019 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
10020 to use the new extension code.
10021 [Steve Henson]
10022
10023 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
10024 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
10025 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
10026 constant.
10027 [Steve Henson]
10028
10029 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
10030 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
10031 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
10032 [Bodo Moeller]
10033
10034 #if 0
10035 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
10036 [Ben Laurie]
10037 #else
10038 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
10039 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
10040 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
10041 #endif
10042
10043 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
10044 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
10045 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
10046 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
10047 [Ben Laurie]
10048
10049 *) DES library cleanups.
10050 [Ulf Möller]
10051
10052 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
10053 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
10054 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
10055 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
10056 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
10057 of v2.0.
10058 [Steve Henson]
10059
10060 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
10061 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
10062 [Bodo Moeller]
10063
10064 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
10065 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
10066 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
10067 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
10068 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
10069 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
10070 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
10071 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
10072 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
10073 [Steve Henson]
10074
10075 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
10076 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
10077 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
10078 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
10079 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
10080 value doesn't matter.
10081 [Steve Henson]
10082
10083 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
10084 support mutable.
10085 [Ben Laurie]
10086
10087 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
10088 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
10089 "linux-sparc" configuration.
10090 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
10091
10092 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
10093 [Ulf Möller]
10094
10095 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
10096 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
10097 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10098
10099 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
10100 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
10101
10102 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
10103 [Ben Laurie]
10104
10105 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
10106 [Ben Laurie]
10107
10108 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
10109 [Ben Laurie]
10110
10111 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
10112 [Bodo Moeller]
10113
10114
10115 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
10116
10117 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
10118
10119 *) Updated some demos.
10120 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
10121
10122 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
10123 [Wu Zhigang]
10124
10125 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
10126 [Steve Henson]
10127
10128 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
10129 [Steve Henson]
10130
10131 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
10132 instead of using a fixed path.
10133 [Bodo Moeller]
10134
10135 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
10136 [Andy Polyakov]
10137
10138 *) Improvements for VMS support.
10139 [Richard Levitte]
10140
10141
10142 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
10143
10144 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
10145 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
10146 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10147
10148 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
10149 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
10150 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
10151 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
10152 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
10153 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
10154 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
10155 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
10156 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
10157 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
10158 [Steve Henson]
10159
10160 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
10161 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
10162 [Steve Henson]
10163
10164 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
10165 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
10166 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
10167 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
10168 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
10169
10170 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
10171 [Bodo Moeller]
10172
10173 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
10174 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
10175 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
10176 [Steve Henson]
10177
10178 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
10179 [Ben Laurie]
10180
10181 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
10182 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
10183 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
10184 key elements as negative integers.
10185 [Steve Henson]
10186
10187 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
10188 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10189
10190 *) VMS support.
10191 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
10192
10193 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
10194 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
10195 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
10196 [Steve Henson]
10197
10198 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
10199 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
10200 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
10201 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
10202 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
10203 [Bodo Moeller]
10204
10205 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
10206 [Ulf Möller]
10207
10208 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
10209 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
10210 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
10211 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10212
10213 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
10214 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
10215 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
10216
10217 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
10218 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
10219 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
10220 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
10221 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
10222 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
10223 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
10224 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
10225 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
10226
10227 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
10228 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
10229 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
10230 does not influence s as it used to.
10231
10232 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
10233 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
10234 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
10235 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
10236 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
10237 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
10238 [Bodo Moeller]
10239
10240 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
10241 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
10242 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
10243 key type.
10244 [Steve Henson]
10245
10246 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
10247 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
10248 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
10249 and 'x509').
10250 [Steve Henson]
10251
10252 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
10253 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
10254 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
10255 extension option.
10256 [Steve Henson]
10257
10258 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
10259 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
10260 [Ben Laurie]
10261
10262 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
10263 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
10264
10265 *) Support Mingw32.
10266 [Ulf Möller]
10267
10268 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
10269 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10270
10271 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
10272 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10273
10274 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
10275 [Ulf Möller]
10276
10277 *) Update HPUX configuration.
10278 [Anonymous]
10279
10280 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
10281 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10282
10283 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
10284 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
10285 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
10286 DER-encoded.)
10287 [Bodo Moeller]
10288
10289 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
10290 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
10291 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
10292 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
10293 now it really counts the depth.
10294 [Bodo Moeller]
10295
10296 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
10297 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
10298 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
10299 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
10300 didn't match the private key).
10301
10302 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
10303 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
10304 connection using the SSL_CTX).
10305 [Bodo Moeller]
10306
10307 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
10308 [Ulf Möller]
10309
10310 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
10311 David Harris.
10312 [Bodo Moeller]
10313
10314 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
10315 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
10316 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
10317 [Bodo Moeller]
10318
10319 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
10320 [Bodo Moeller]
10321
10322 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
10323 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
10324 such as /usr/local/bin.
10325 [Bodo Moeller]
10326
10327 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
10328 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10329
10330 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
10331 [Ulf Möller]
10332
10333 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
10334 extension adding in x509 utility.
10335 [Steve Henson]
10336
10337 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
10338 [Ulf Möller]
10339
10340 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
10341 prototypes.
10342 [Steve Henson]
10343
10344 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
10345 [Ulf Möller]
10346
10347 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
10348 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10349 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10350 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10351 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10352 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10353 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10354 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10355 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10356 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10357 [Steve Henson]
10358
10359 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10360 [Bodo Moeller]
10361
10362 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10363 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10364 [Bodo Moeller]
10365
10366 *) Fix some race conditions.
10367 [Bodo Moeller]
10368
10369 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10370 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10371 [Steve Henson]
10372
10373 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10374 [Ulf Möller]
10375
10376 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10377 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10378 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10379 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10380
10381 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10382 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10383
10384 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10385 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10386 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10387
10388 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10389 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10390
10391 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10392 [Ulf Möller]
10393
10394 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10395 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10396
10397 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10398 [Ulf Möller]
10399
10400 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10401 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10402
10403 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10404 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10405 [Steve Henson]
10406
10407 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10408 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10409 [Ben Laurie]
10410
10411 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10412 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10413 [Steve Henson]
10414
10415 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10416 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10417 [Steve Henson]
10418
10419 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10420 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10421 [Steve Henson]
10422
10423 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10424 support typesafe stack.
10425 [Steve Henson]
10426
10427 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10428 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10429
10430 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10431 old X509V3 handling code.
10432 [Steve Henson]
10433
10434 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10435 [Ulf Möller]
10436
10437 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10438 [Bodo Moeller]
10439
10440 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10441 [Ben Laurie]
10442
10443 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10444 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10445
10446 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10447 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10448 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10449 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10450 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10451 [Ben Laurie]
10452
10453 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10454 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10455 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10456 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10457 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10458
10459 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10460 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10461 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10462 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10463
10464 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10465 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10466 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10467 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10468
10469 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10470 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10471 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10472 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10473 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10474 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10475 [Bodo Moeller]
10476
10477 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10478 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10479 [Bodo Moeller]
10480
10481 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10482 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10483 [Ulf Möller]
10484
10485 *) Tweaks to Configure
10486 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10487
10488 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10489 yet...
10490 [Steve Henson]
10491
10492 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10493 [Ulf Möller]
10494
10495 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10496 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10497 [Ulf Möller]
10498
10499 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10500 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10501 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10502 [Bodo Moeller]
10503
10504 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10505 [Bodo Moeller]
10506
10507 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10508 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10509 [Steve Henson]
10510
10511 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10512 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10513 to library startup routines.
10514 [Steve Henson]
10515
10516 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10517 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10518 codes along the way.
10519 [Steve Henson]
10520
10521 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10522 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10523 objects to objects.h
10524 [Steve Henson]
10525
10526 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10527 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10528 [Steve Henson]
10529
10530 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10531 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10532
10533 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10534 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10535 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10536
10537 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10538 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10539 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10540
10541 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10542 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10543 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10544
10545
10546 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10547
10548 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10549 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10550 [Ben Laurie]
10551
10552 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10553 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10554 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10555 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10556 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10557
10558 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10559 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10560 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10561 document.
10562 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10563
10564 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10565 Malloc, Free.
10566 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10567
10568 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10569 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10570
10571 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10572 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10573 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10574 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10575
10576 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10577 [Ben Laurie]
10578
10579 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10580 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10581 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10582 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10583 [Steve Henson]
10584
10585 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10586 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10587 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10588 [Steve Henson]
10589
10590 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10591 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10592 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10593 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10594 installed as `perl').
10595 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10596
10597 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10598 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10599
10600 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10601 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10602 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10603 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10604 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10605 [Steve Henson]
10606
10607 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10608 [Ben Laurie]
10609
10610 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10611 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10612 is horrible: I feel ill....
10613 [Steve Henson]
10614
10615 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10616 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10617 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10618 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10619 [Steve Henson]
10620
10621 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10622 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10623
10624 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10625 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10626 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10627 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10628
10629 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10630 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10631 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10632 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10633 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10634 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10635 openssl_bio.xs.
10636 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10637
10638 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10639 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10640
10641 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10642 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10643
10644 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10645 [Ben Laurie]
10646
10647 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10648 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10649 in CRLs.
10650 [Steve Henson]
10651
10652 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10653 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10654 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10655 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10656 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10657 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10658 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10659 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10660 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10661 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10662 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10663
10664 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10665 [Ben Laurie]
10666
10667 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10668 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10669 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10670 for linking it into DSOs.
10671 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10672
10673 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10674 Fixed.
10675 [Ben Laurie]
10676
10677 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10678 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10679 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10680 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10681 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10682 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10683
10684 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10685 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10686 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10687 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10688 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10689 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10690 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10691
10692 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10693 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10694 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10695 encryption.
10696 [Ben Laurie]
10697
10698 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10699 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10700 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10701 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10702 [Steve Henson]
10703
10704 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10705 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10706 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10707 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10708 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10709 field as blank.
10710 [Steve Henson]
10711
10712 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10713 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10714 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10715 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10716 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10717
10718 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10719 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10720 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10721
10722 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10723 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10724
10725 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10726 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10727 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10728 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10729 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10730 [Steve Henson]
10731
10732 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10733 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10734 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10735 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10736 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10737 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10738 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10739 [Ben Laurie]
10740
10741 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10742 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10743 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10744 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10745 [Ben Laurie]
10746
10747 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10748 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10749
10750 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10751 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10752 [Steve Henson]
10753
10754 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10755 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10756 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10757 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10758 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10759 (e.g. s_server).
10760 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10761 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10762 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10763 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10764 no way to reconfigure them.
10765 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10766 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10767 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10768 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10769 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10770 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10771
10772 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10773 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10774 recognized by the users.
10775 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10776
10777 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10778 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10779 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10780 already masked variable.
10781 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10782
10783 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10784 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10785
10786 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10787 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10788 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10789 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10790
10791 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10792 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10793 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10794
10795 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10796 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10797 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10798 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10799 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10800 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10801 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10802 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10803 now, too.
10804 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10805
10806 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10807 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10808 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10809
10810 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10811 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10812 config file.
10813 [Steve Henson]
10814
10815 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10816 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10817
10818 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10819 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10820 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10821 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10822 [Ben Laurie]
10823
10824 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10825 [Steve Henson]
10826
10827 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10828 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10829
10830 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10831 [Ben Laurie]
10832
10833 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10834 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10835 [Steve Henson]
10836
10837 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10838 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10839 [Steve Henson]
10840
10841 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10842 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10843 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10844 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10845 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10846 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10847 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10848 Ben Laurie]
10849
10850 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10851 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10852
10853 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10854 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10855 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10856 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10857 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10858
10859 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10860 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10861 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10862 [Steve Henson]
10863
10864 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10865 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10866 an example.
10867 [Steve Henson]
10868
10869 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10870 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10871 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10872
10873 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10874 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10875 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10876 build instructions.
10877 [Steve Henson]
10878
10879 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10880 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10881 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10882 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10883 [Steve Henson]
10884
10885 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10886 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10887 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10888 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10889 [Ben Laurie]
10890
10891 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10892 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10893 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10894 so it wasn't spotted.
10895 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10896
10897 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10898 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10899 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10900 vectors if you have them.
10901 [Ben Laurie]
10902
10903 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10904 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10905 [Ben Laurie]
10906
10907 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10908 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10909 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10910 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10911 If you do a:
10912 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10913 it will update them.
10914 [Steve Henson]
10915
10916 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10917 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10918 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10919 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10920 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10921 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10922 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10923 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10924
10925 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10926 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10927 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10928 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10929 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10930 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10931 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10932 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10933 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10934 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10935
10936 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10937 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10938 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10939 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10940 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10941 [Steve Henson]
10942
10943 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10944 INTEGER code.
10945 [Steve Henson]
10946
10947 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10948 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10949
10950 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10951 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10952
10953 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10954 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10955 [Ben Laurie]
10956
10957 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10958 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10959
10960 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10961 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10962
10963 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10964 [Steve Henson]
10965
10966 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10967 few typos.
10968 [Steve Henson]
10969
10970 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10971 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10972 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10973 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10974
10975 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10976 [Steve Henson]
10977
10978 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10979 [Steve Henson]
10980
10981 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10982 [Steve Henson]
10983
10984 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10985 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10986 [Steve Henson]
10987
10988 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10989 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10990 CA extensions.
10991 [Steve Henson]
10992
10993 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10994 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10995 [Steve Henson]
10996
10997 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10998 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10999 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
11000 [Steve Henson]
11001
11002 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
11003 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
11004 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
11005 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
11006 properly to be processed.
11007 [Steve Henson]
11008
11009 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
11010 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
11011 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
11012 [Ben Laurie]
11013
11014 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
11015 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
11016
11017 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
11018 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
11019 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
11020 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
11021 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
11022 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
11023 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
11024 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
11025 or delete all the .err files.
11026 [Steve Henson]
11027
11028 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
11029 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
11030 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
11031 to regenerate it if needed.
11032 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
11033 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
11034
11035 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
11036 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11037
11038 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
11039 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
11040 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
11041 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
11042 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
11043 [Steve Henson]
11044
11045 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
11046 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11047
11048 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
11049 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11050
11051 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
11052 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
11053 error, but didn't set one).
11054 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11055
11056 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
11057 [Ben Laurie]
11058
11059 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
11060 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
11061 [Steve Henson]
11062
11063 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
11064 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
11065
11066 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
11067 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
11068 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
11069 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
11070 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
11071 OID is not part of the table.
11072 [Steve Henson]
11073
11074 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
11075 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
11076 [Ben Laurie]
11077
11078 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
11079 [Ben Laurie]
11080
11081 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
11082 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
11083 was "1234").
11084 [Steve Henson]
11085
11086 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
11087 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
11088
11089 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
11090 NULL pointers.
11091 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11092
11093 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
11094 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11095
11096 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
11097 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
11098
11099 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
11100 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
11101
11102 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
11103 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
11104 [Ben Laurie]
11105
11106 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
11107 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
11108 [Steve Henson]
11109
11110 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
11111 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11112
11113 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
11114 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11115
11116 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
11117 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11118
11119 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
11120 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
11121
11122 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
11123 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
11124 unused in the certificate verification process.
11125 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11126
11127 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
11128 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
11129 [Steve Henson]
11130
11131 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
11132 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
11133 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
11134
11135 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
11136 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
11137 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
11138 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
11139 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
11140
11141 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
11142 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
11143 [Steve Henson]
11144
11145 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
11146 [Steve Henson]
11147
11148 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
11149 [Paul Sutton]
11150
11151 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
11152 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
11153
11154 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
11155 [Ben Laurie]
11156
11157 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
11158 [Ben Laurie]
11159
11160 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
11161 [Ben Laurie]
11162
11163 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
11164 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
11165 other error libraries.
11166 [Steve Henson]
11167
11168 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
11169 [Steve Henson]
11170
11171 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
11172 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
11173 be read in.
11174 [Steve Henson]
11175
11176 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
11177 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
11178 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
11179 the new set of documenation files.
11180 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11181
11182 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
11183 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
11184 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
11185 number of arguments.
11186 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
11187
11188 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
11189 [Ben Laurie]
11190
11191 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
11192 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
11193 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
11194
11195 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
11196 [Ben Laurie]
11197
11198 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
11199 nextstep
11200 ncr-scde
11201 unixware-2.0
11202 unixware-2.0-pentium
11203 sco5-cc.
11204 [Ben Laurie]
11205
11206 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
11207 before they are needed.
11208 [Ben Laurie]
11209
11210 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
11211 [Ben Laurie]
11212
11213
11214 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
11215
11216 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
11217 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
11218 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11219
11220 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
11221 [Paul Sutton]
11222
11223 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
11224 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
11225 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11226
11227 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
11228 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
11229 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
11230
11231 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
11232 when "ssleay" is still not found.
11233 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11234
11235 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
11236 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
11237
11238 *) Updated the README file.
11239 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11240
11241 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
11242 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
11243 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11244
11245 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
11246 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
11247 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11248
11249 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
11250 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
11251 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
11252 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
11253 o removed obsolete TODO file
11254 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
11255 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11256
11257 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
11258 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
11259 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
11260 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
11261 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
11262 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
11263 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
11264
11265 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
11266 [Mark J. Cox]
11267
11268 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
11269 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
11270 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
11271 summer 1998.
11272 [The OpenSSL Project]
11273
11274
11275 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
11276
11277 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
11278 [Eric A. Young]
11279
11280 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
11281 [Eric A. Young]
11282
11283 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
11284 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
11285 [Eric A. Young]
11286
11287 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
11288 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
11289 available).
11290 [Eric A. Young]
11291
11292 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
11293 binary structures
11294 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
11295
11296 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
11297 [Eric A. Young]
11298
11299 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
11300 [Eric A. Young]
11301
11302 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
11303 [Eric A. Young]
11304
11305 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
11306 [Eric A. Young]
11307
11308 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
11309 [Eric A. Young]
11310
11311 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
11312 [Eric A. Young]
11313
11314 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
11315 [Eric A. Young]
11316
11317 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
11318 [Eric A. Young]
11319
11320 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
11321 [Eric A. Young]
11322
11323 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
11324 [Eric A. Young]
11325
11326 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
11327 [Eric A. Young]
11328
11329 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
11330 [Eric A. Young]
11331
11332 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
11333 [Eric A. Young]
11334
11335 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
11336 [Eric A. Young]
11337
11338 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
11339 [Eric A. Young]
11340
11341 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
11342 [Eric A. Young]
11343
11344 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
11345 [Eric A. Young]
11346
11347 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
11348 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
11349 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
11350 [Eric A. Young]
11351
11352 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
11353 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
11354 [Eric A. Young]
11355
11356 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
11357 [Eric A. Young]
11358
11359 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
11360 [Eric A. Young]
11361
11362 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
11363 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
11364 [Eric A. Young]
11365
11366 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
11367 [Eric A. Young]
11368
11369 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
11370 [Eric A. Young]
11371
11372 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
11373 bytes sent in the client random.
11374 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
11375
