5 Changes between 1.0.2f and 1.0.2g [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 * Disable SSLv2 default build, default negotiation and weak ciphers. SSLv2
8 is by default disabled at build-time. Builds that are not configured with
9 "enable-ssl2" will not support SSLv2. Even if "enable-ssl2" is used,
10 users who want to negotiate SSLv2 via the version-flexible SSLv23_method()
11 will need to explicitly call either of:
12
13 SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
14 or
15 SSL_clear_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2);
16
17 as appropriate. Even if either of those is used, or the application
18 explicitly uses the version-specific SSLv2_method() or its client and
19 server variants, SSLv2 ciphers vulnerable to exhaustive search key
20 recovery have been removed. Specifically, the SSLv2 40-bit EXPORT
21 ciphers, and SSLv2 56-bit DES are no longer available.
22 [Viktor Dukhovni]
23
24 *) Disable SRP fake user seed to address a server memory leak.
25
26 Add a new method SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user that handles the seed properly.
27
28 SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour.
29 In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak, SRP_VBASE_get_by_user
30 was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP seed, even if the seed
31 is configured.
32
33 Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in
34 SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note
35 also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide
36 invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake
37 credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong
38 guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from
39 that of a valid user.
40 (CVE-2016-0798)
41 [Emilia Käsper]
42
43 *) Change the req app to generate a 2048-bit RSA/DSA key by default,
44 if no keysize is specified with default_bits. This fixes an
45 omission in an earlier change that changed all RSA/DSA key generation
46 apps to use 2048 bits by default.
47 [Emilia Käsper]
48
49 Changes between 1.0.2e and 1.0.2f [28 Jan 2016]
50
51 *) DH small subgroups
52
53 Historically OpenSSL only ever generated DH parameters based on "safe"
54 primes. More recently (in version 1.0.2) support was provided for
55 generating X9.42 style parameter files such as those required for RFC 5114
56 support. The primes used in such files may not be "safe". Where an
57 application is using DH configured with parameters based on primes that are
58 not "safe" then an attacker could use this fact to find a peer's private
59 DH exponent. This attack requires that the attacker complete multiple
60 handshakes in which the peer uses the same private DH exponent. For example
61 this could be used to discover a TLS server's private DH exponent if it's
62 reusing the private DH exponent or it's using a static DH ciphersuite.
63
64 OpenSSL provides the option SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE for ephemeral DH (DHE) in
65 TLS. It is not on by default. If the option is not set then the server
66 reuses the same private DH exponent for the life of the server process and
67 would be vulnerable to this attack. It is believed that many popular
68 applications do set this option and would therefore not be at risk.
69
70 The fix for this issue adds an additional check where a "q" parameter is
71 available (as is the case in X9.42 based parameters). This detects the
72 only known attack, and is the only possible defense for static DH
73 ciphersuites. This could have some performance impact.
74
75 Additionally the SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE option has been switched on by
76 default and cannot be disabled. This could have some performance impact.
77
78 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Antonio Sanso (Adobe).
79 (CVE-2016-0701)
80 [Matt Caswell]
81
82 *) SSLv2 doesn't block disabled ciphers
83
84 A malicious client can negotiate SSLv2 ciphers that have been disabled on
85 the server and complete SSLv2 handshakes even if all SSLv2 ciphers have
86 been disabled, provided that the SSLv2 protocol was not also disabled via
87 SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.
88
89 This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 26th December 2015 by Nimrod Aviram
90 and Sebastian Schinzel.
91 (CVE-2015-3197)
92 [Viktor Dukhovni]
93
94 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 1024 bits.
95 [Kurt Roeckx]
96
97 Changes between 1.0.2d and 1.0.2e [3 Dec 2015]
98
99 *) BN_mod_exp may produce incorrect results on x86_64
100
101 There is a carry propagating bug in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring
102 procedure. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks
103 against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to
104 perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH are considered just
105 feasible (although very difficult) because most of the work necessary to
106 deduce information about a private key may be performed offline. The amount
107 of resources required for such an attack would be very significant and
108 likely only accessible to a limited number of attackers. An attacker would
109 additionally need online access to an unpatched system using the target
110 private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private
111 key that is shared between multiple clients. For example this can occur by
112 default in OpenSSL DHE based SSL/TLS ciphersuites.
113
114 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Hanno Böck.
115 (CVE-2015-3193)
116 [Andy Polyakov]
117
118 *) Certificate verify crash with missing PSS parameter
119
120 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
121 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
122 algorithm and absent mask generation function parameter. Since these
123 routines are used to verify certificate signature algorithms this can be
124 used to crash any certificate verification operation and exploited in a
125 DoS attack. Any application which performs certificate verification is
126 vulnerable including OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client
127 authentication.
128
129 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Loïc Jonas Etienne (Qnective AG).
130 (CVE-2015-3194)
131 [Stephen Henson]
132
133 *) X509_ATTRIBUTE memory leak
134
135 When presented with a malformed X509_ATTRIBUTE structure OpenSSL will leak
136 memory. This structure is used by the PKCS#7 and CMS routines so any
137 application which reads PKCS#7 or CMS data from untrusted sources is
138 affected. SSL/TLS is not affected.
139
140 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using
141 libFuzzer.
142 (CVE-2015-3195)
143 [Stephen Henson]
144
145 *) Rewrite EVP_DecodeUpdate (base64 decoding) to fix several bugs.
146 This changes the decoding behaviour for some invalid messages,
147 though the change is mostly in the more lenient direction, and
148 legacy behaviour is preserved as much as possible.
149 [Emilia Käsper]
150
151 *) In DSA_generate_parameters_ex, if the provided seed is too short,
152 use a random seed, as already documented.
153 [Rich Salz and Ismo Puustinen <ismo.puustinen@intel.com>]
154
155 Changes between 1.0.2c and 1.0.2d [9 Jul 2015]
156
157 *) Alternate chains certificate forgery
158
159 During certificate verfification, OpenSSL will attempt to find an
160 alternative certificate chain if the first attempt to build such a chain
161 fails. An error in the implementation of this logic can mean that an
162 attacker could cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be
163 bypassed, such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf
164 certificate to act as a CA and "issue" an invalid certificate.
165
166 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Adam Langley/David Benjamin
167 (Google/BoringSSL).
168 (CVE-2015-1793)
169 [Matt Caswell]
170
171 *) Race condition handling PSK identify hint
172
173 If PSK identity hints are received by a multi-threaded client then
174 the values are wrongly updated in the parent SSL_CTX structure. This can
175 result in a race condition potentially leading to a double free of the
176 identify hint data.
177 (CVE-2015-3196)
178 [Stephen Henson]
179
180 Changes between 1.0.2b and 1.0.2c [12 Jun 2015]
181
182 *) Fix HMAC ABI incompatibility. The previous version introduced an ABI
183 incompatibility in the handling of HMAC. The previous ABI has now been
184 restored.
185
186 Changes between 1.0.2a and 1.0.2b [11 Jun 2015]
187
188 *) Malformed ECParameters causes infinite loop
189
190 When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop
191 if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial
192 field.
193
194 This can be used to perform denial of service against any
195 system which processes public keys, certificate requests or
196 certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with
197 client authentication enabled.
198
199 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Joseph Barr-Pixton.
200 (CVE-2015-1788)
201 [Andy Polyakov]
202
203 *) Exploitable out-of-bounds read in X509_cmp_time
204
205 X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME
206 string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition,
207 X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the
208 time string.
209
210 An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of
211 various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in
212 a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients
213 that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client
214 authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification
215 callbacks.
216
217 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Robert Swiecki (Google), and
218 independently by Hanno Böck.
219 (CVE-2015-1789)
220 [Emilia Käsper]
221
222 *) PKCS7 crash with missing EnvelopedContent
223
224 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent
225 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs
226 with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
227
228 Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7
229 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and
230 servers are not affected.
231
232 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
233 (CVE-2015-1790)
234 [Emilia Käsper]
235
236 *) CMS verify infinite loop with unknown hash function
237
238 When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop
239 if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform
240 denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using
241 the CMS code.
242 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Johannes Bauer.
243 (CVE-2015-1792)
244 [Stephen Henson]
245
246 *) Race condition handling NewSessionTicket
247
248 If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to
249 reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to
250 a double free of the ticket data.
251 (CVE-2015-1791)
252 [Matt Caswell]
253
254 *) Removed support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites
255 EXP-DH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA and EXP-DH-DSS-DES-CBC-SHA. These two ciphersuites
256 were newly added (along with a number of other static DH ciphersuites) to
257 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked since they were
258 introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new export
259 ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to fix them.
260 [Matt Caswell]
261
262 *) Only support 256-bit or stronger elliptic curves with the
263 'ecdh_auto' setting (server) or by default (client). Of supported
264 curves, prefer P-256 (both).
265 [Emilia Kasper]
266
267 *) Reject DH handshakes with parameters shorter than 768 bits.
268 [Kurt Roeckx and Emilia Kasper]
269
270 Changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.2a [19 Mar 2015]
271
272 *) ClientHello sigalgs DoS fix
273
274 If a client connects to an OpenSSL 1.0.2 server and renegotiates with an
275 invalid signature algorithms extension a NULL pointer dereference will
276 occur. This can be exploited in a DoS attack against the server.
277
278 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by David Ramos of Stanford
279 University.
280 (CVE-2015-0291)
281 [Stephen Henson and Matt Caswell]
282
283 *) Multiblock corrupted pointer fix
284
285 OpenSSL 1.0.2 introduced the "multiblock" performance improvement. This
286 feature only applies on 64 bit x86 architecture platforms that support AES
287 NI instructions. A defect in the implementation of "multiblock" can cause
288 OpenSSL's internal write buffer to become incorrectly set to NULL when
289 using non-blocking IO. Typically, when the user application is using a
290 socket BIO for writing, this will only result in a failed connection.
291 However if some other BIO is used then it is likely that a segmentation
292 fault will be triggered, thus enabling a potential DoS attack.
293
294 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Daniel Danner and Rainer Mueller.
295 (CVE-2015-0290)
296 [Matt Caswell]
297
298 *) Segmentation fault in DTLSv1_listen fix
299
300 The DTLSv1_listen function is intended to be stateless and processes the
301 initial ClientHello from many peers. It is common for user code to loop
302 over the call to DTLSv1_listen until a valid ClientHello is received with
303 an associated cookie. A defect in the implementation of DTLSv1_listen means
304 that state is preserved in the SSL object from one invocation to the next
305 that can lead to a segmentation fault. Errors processing the initial
306 ClientHello can trigger this scenario. An example of such an error could be
307 that a DTLS1.0 only client is attempting to connect to a DTLS1.2 only
308 server.
309
310 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Per Allansson.
311 (CVE-2015-0207)
312 [Matt Caswell]
313
314 *) Segmentation fault in ASN1_TYPE_cmp fix
315
316 The function ASN1_TYPE_cmp will crash with an invalid read if an attempt is
317 made to compare ASN.1 boolean types. Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check
318 certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any
319 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
320 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
321 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
322 (CVE-2015-0286)
323 [Stephen Henson]
324
325 *) Segmentation fault for invalid PSS parameters fix
326
327 The signature verification routines will crash with a NULL pointer
328 dereference if presented with an ASN.1 signature using the RSA PSS
329 algorithm and invalid parameters. Since these routines are used to verify
330 certificate signature algorithms this can be used to crash any
331 certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any
332 application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including
333 OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication.
334
335 This issue was was reported to OpenSSL by Brian Carpenter.
336 (CVE-2015-0208)
337 [Stephen Henson]
338
339 *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix
340
341 Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause
342 memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been
343 strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare.
344
345 Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY
346 components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related
347 functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are
348 not affected.
349 (CVE-2015-0287)
350 [Stephen Henson]
351
352 *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix
353
354 The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo
355 correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with
356 missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing.
357
358 Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or
359 otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are
360 affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected.
361
362 This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google).
363 (CVE-2015-0289)
364 [Emilia Käsper]
365
366 *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix
367
368 A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in
369 servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending
370 a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message.
371
372 This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper
373 (OpenSSL development team).
374 (CVE-2015-0293)
375 [Emilia Käsper]
376
377 *) Empty CKE with client auth and DHE fix
378
379 If client auth is used then a server can seg fault in the event of a DHE
380 ciphersuite being selected and a zero length ClientKeyExchange message
381 being sent by the client. This could be exploited in a DoS attack.
382 (CVE-2015-1787)
383 [Matt Caswell]
384
385 *) Handshake with unseeded PRNG fix
386
387 Under certain conditions an OpenSSL 1.0.2 client can complete a handshake
388 with an unseeded PRNG. The conditions are:
389 - The client is on a platform where the PRNG has not been seeded
390 automatically, and the user has not seeded manually
391 - A protocol specific client method version has been used (i.e. not
392 SSL_client_methodv23)
393 - A ciphersuite is used that does not require additional random data from
394 the PRNG beyond the initial ClientHello client random (e.g. PSK-RC4-SHA).
395
396 If the handshake succeeds then the client random that has been used will
397 have been generated from a PRNG with insufficient entropy and therefore the
398 output may be predictable.
399
400 For example using the following command with an unseeded openssl will
401 succeed on an unpatched platform:
402
403 openssl s_client -psk 1a2b3c4d -tls1_2 -cipher PSK-RC4-SHA
404 (CVE-2015-0285)
405 [Matt Caswell]
406
407 *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix
408
409 A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function
410 could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double
411 free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey
412 or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption
413 for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted
414 sources. This scenario is considered rare.
415
416 This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their
417 commit 517073cd4b.
418 (CVE-2015-0209)
419 [Matt Caswell]
420
421 *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix
422
423 The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if
424 the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice.
425
426 This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter.
427 (CVE-2015-0288)
428 [Stephen Henson]
429
430 *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers
431 [Kurt Roeckx]
432
433 Changes between 1.0.1l and 1.0.2 [22 Jan 2015]
434
435 *) Change RSA and DH/DSA key generation apps to generate 2048-bit
436 keys by default.
437 [Kurt Roeckx]
438
439 *) Facilitate "universal" ARM builds targeting range of ARM ISAs, e.g.
440 ARMv5 through ARMv8, as opposite to "locking" it to single one.
441 So far those who have to target multiple plaforms would compromise
442 and argue that binary targeting say ARMv5 would still execute on
443 ARMv8. "Universal" build resolves this compromise by providing
444 near-optimal performance even on newer platforms.
445 [Andy Polyakov]
446
447 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
448 (other platforms pending).
449 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
450
451 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
452 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
453 [Rob Stradling]
454
455 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
456 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
457 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
458 [Bodo Moeller]
459
460 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
461 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
462 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
463 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
464 [Andy Polyakov]
465
466 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
467 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
468
469 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
470 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
471 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
472 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
473 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
474
475 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
476 [Andy Polyakov]
477
478 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
479 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
480 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
481 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
482
483 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
484 RSAZ.
485 [Shay Gueron & Vlad Krasnov (Intel Corp)]
486
487 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
488 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
489 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
490 for TLS encrypt.
491
492 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
493 [Andy Polyakov]
494
495 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
496 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
497 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
498 [Steve Henson]
499
500 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
501 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
502 [Steve Henson]
503
504 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
505 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
506 [Steve Henson]
507
508 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
509 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
510 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
511 algorithms and include tests cases.
512 [Steve Henson]
513
514 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
515 structure.
516 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
517
518 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
519 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
520 [Steve Henson]
521
522 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
523 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
524 summary of the connection parameters.
525 [Steve Henson]
526
527 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
528 of connection parameters.
529 [Steve Henson]
530
531 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
532 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
533
534 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
535 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
536 [Steve Henson]
537
538 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
539 [Steve Henson]
540
541 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
542 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
543 [Steve Henson]
544
545 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
546 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
547 [Steve Henson]
548
549 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
550 certificates.
551 [Steve Henson]
552
553 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
554 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
555 CRLs using the OCSP API.
556 [Steve Henson]
557
558 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
559 [Steve Henson]
560
561 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
562 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
563 [Steve Henson]
564
565 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
566 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
567 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
568 tracing.
569 [Steve Henson]
570
571 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
572 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
573 [Steve Henson]
574
575 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
576 OID NID.
577 [Steve Henson]
578
579 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
580 client to OpenSSL.
581 [Steve Henson]
582
583 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
584 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
585 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
586 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
587 [Steve Henson]
588
589 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
590 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
591 [Steve Henson]
592
593 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
594 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
595 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
596 comparison.
597 [Steve Henson]
598
599 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
600 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
601 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
602 use the certificate.
603 [Steve Henson]
604
605 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
606 [Steve Henson]
607
608 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
609 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
610 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
611 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
612 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
613 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
614 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
615
616 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
617 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
618
619 [Steve Henson]
620
621 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
622 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
623 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
624 [Steve Henson]
625
626 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
627 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
628 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
629 supported signature algorithms.
630 [Steve Henson]
631
632 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
633 [Steve Henson]
634
635 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
636 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
637 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
638 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
639 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
640 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
641 certificate and specify the whole chain.
642 [Steve Henson]
643
644 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
645 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
646 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
647 to have similar checks in it.
648
649 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
650 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
651 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
652 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
653 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
654 [Steve Henson]
655
656 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
657 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
658 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
659 shared signature algorithms.
660 [Steve Henson]
661
662 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
663 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
664 to support them.
665 [Steve Henson]
666
667 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
668 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
669 it couldn't be removed.
670 [Steve Henson]
671
672 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
673 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
674 [Steve Henson]
675
676 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
677 functions. Add manual page.
678 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
679
680 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
681 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
682 a certificate.
683 [Steve Henson]
684
685 *) Fix OCSP checking.
686 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
687
688 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
689 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
690 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
691 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
692 utility) or reject.
693 [Steve Henson]
694
695 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
696 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
697 [Steve Henson]
698
699 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
700 platform support for Linux and Android.
701 [Andy Polyakov]
702
703 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
704 [Andy Polyakov]
705
706 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
707 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
708 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
709 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
710 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
711 [Steve Henson]
712
713 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
714 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
715 the new parameter format automatically.
716 [Steve Henson]
717
718 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
719 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
720 [Steve Henson]
721
722 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
723 [Steve Henson]
724
725 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
726 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
727 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
728 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
729 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
730 [Steve Henson]
731
732 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
733 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
734 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
735 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
736 to set list of supported curves.
737 [Steve Henson]
738
739 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
740 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
741 to print out received values.
742 [Steve Henson]
743
744 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
745 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
746 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
747 [Steve Henson]
748
749 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
750 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
751 [Steve Henson]
752
753 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
754 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
755 [Steve Henson]
756
757 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
758 certificates.
759 [Steve Henson]
760
761 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
762 the certificate.
763 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
764 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
765 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
766
767 Changes between 1.0.1k and 1.0.1l [15 Jan 2015]
768
769 *) Build fixes for the Windows and OpenVMS platforms
770 [Matt Caswell and Richard Levitte]
771
772 Changes between 1.0.1j and 1.0.1k [8 Jan 2015]
773
774 *) Fix DTLS segmentation fault in dtls1_get_record. A carefully crafted DTLS
775 message can cause a segmentation fault in OpenSSL due to a NULL pointer
776 dereference. This could lead to a Denial Of Service attack. Thanks to
777 Markus Stenberg of Cisco Systems, Inc. for reporting this issue.
778 (CVE-2014-3571)
779 [Steve Henson]
780
781 *) Fix DTLS memory leak in dtls1_buffer_record. A memory leak can occur in the
782 dtls1_buffer_record function under certain conditions. In particular this
783 could occur if an attacker sent repeated DTLS records with the same
784 sequence number but for the next epoch. The memory leak could be exploited
785 by an attacker in a Denial of Service attack through memory exhaustion.
786 Thanks to Chris Mueller for reporting this issue.
787 (CVE-2015-0206)
788 [Matt Caswell]
789
790 *) Fix issue where no-ssl3 configuration sets method to NULL. When openssl is
791 built with the no-ssl3 option and a SSL v3 ClientHello is received the ssl
792 method would be set to NULL which could later result in a NULL pointer
793 dereference. Thanks to Frank Schmirler for reporting this issue.
794 (CVE-2014-3569)
795 [Kurt Roeckx]
796
797 *) Abort handshake if server key exchange message is omitted for ephemeral
798 ECDH ciphersuites.
799
800 Thanks to Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA for
801 reporting this issue.
802 (CVE-2014-3572)
803 [Steve Henson]
804
805 *) Remove non-export ephemeral RSA code on client and server. This code
806 violated the TLS standard by allowing the use of temporary RSA keys in
807 non-export ciphersuites and could be used by a server to effectively
808 downgrade the RSA key length used to a value smaller than the server
809 certificate. Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at
810 INRIA or reporting this issue.
811 (CVE-2015-0204)
812 [Steve Henson]
813
814 *) Fixed issue where DH client certificates are accepted without verification.
815 An OpenSSL server will accept a DH certificate for client authentication
816 without the certificate verify message. This effectively allows a client to
817 authenticate without the use of a private key. This only affects servers
818 which trust a client certificate authority which issues certificates
819 containing DH keys: these are extremely rare and hardly ever encountered.
820 Thanks for Karthikeyan Bhargavan of the PROSECCO team at INRIA or reporting
821 this issue.
822 (CVE-2015-0205)
823 [Steve Henson]
824
825 *) Ensure that the session ID context of an SSL is updated when its
826 SSL_CTX is updated via SSL_set_SSL_CTX.
827
828 The session ID context is typically set from the parent SSL_CTX,
829 and can vary with the CTX.
830 [Adam Langley]
831
832 *) Fix various certificate fingerprint issues.
833
834 By using non-DER or invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a
835 certificate the fingerprint can be changed without breaking the signature.
836 Although no details of the signed portion of the certificate can be changed
837 this can cause problems with some applications: e.g. those using the
838 certificate fingerprint for blacklists.
839
840 1. Reject signatures with non zero unused bits.
841
842 If the BIT STRING containing the signature has non zero unused bits reject
843 the signature. All current signature algorithms require zero unused bits.
844
845 2. Check certificate algorithm consistency.
846
847 Check the AlgorithmIdentifier inside TBS matches the one in the
848 certificate signature. NB: this will result in signature failure
849 errors for some broken certificates.
850
851 Thanks to Konrad Kraszewski from Google for reporting this issue.
852
853 3. Check DSA/ECDSA signatures use DER.
854
855 Reencode DSA/ECDSA signatures and compare with the original received
856 signature. Return an error if there is a mismatch.
857
858 This will reject various cases including garbage after signature
859 (thanks to Antti Karjalainen and Tuomo Untinen from the Codenomicon CROSS
860 program for discovering this case) and use of BER or invalid ASN.1 INTEGERs
861 (negative or with leading zeroes).
862
863 Further analysis was conducted and fixes were developed by Stephen Henson
864 of the OpenSSL core team.
865
866 (CVE-2014-8275)
867 [Steve Henson]
868
869 *) Correct Bignum squaring. Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) may produce incorrect
870 results on some platforms, including x86_64. This bug occurs at random
871 with a very low probability, and is not known to be exploitable in any
872 way, though its exact impact is difficult to determine. Thanks to Pieter
873 Wuille (Blockstream) who reported this issue and also suggested an initial
874 fix. Further analysis was conducted by the OpenSSL development team and
875 Adam Langley of Google. The final fix was developed by Andy Polyakov of
876 the OpenSSL core team.
877 (CVE-2014-3570)
878 [Andy Polyakov]
879
880 *) Do not resume sessions on the server if the negotiated protocol
881 version does not match the session's version. Resuming with a different
882 version, while not strictly forbidden by the RFC, is of questionable
883 sanity and breaks all known clients.
884 [David Benjamin, Emilia Käsper]
885
886 *) Tighten handling of the ChangeCipherSpec (CCS) message: reject
887 early CCS messages during renegotiation. (Note that because
888 renegotiation is encrypted, this early CCS was not exploitable.)
889 [Emilia Käsper]
890
891 *) Tighten client-side session ticket handling during renegotiation:
892 ensure that the client only accepts a session ticket if the server sends
893 the extension anew in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
894 reuse the old extension state and thus accept a session ticket if one was
895 announced in the initial ServerHello.
896
897 Similarly, ensure that the client requires a session ticket if one
898 was advertised in the ServerHello. Previously, a TLS client would
899 ignore a missing NewSessionTicket message.
900 [Emilia Käsper]
901
902 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [15 Oct 2014]
903
904 *) SRTP Memory Leak.
905
906 A flaw in the DTLS SRTP extension parsing code allows an attacker, who
907 sends a carefully crafted handshake message, to cause OpenSSL to fail
908 to free up to 64k of memory causing a memory leak. This could be
909 exploited in a Denial Of Service attack. This issue affects OpenSSL
910 1.0.1 server implementations for both SSL/TLS and DTLS regardless of
911 whether SRTP is used or configured. Implementations of OpenSSL that
912 have been compiled with OPENSSL_NO_SRTP defined are not affected.
913
914 The fix was developed by the OpenSSL team.
915 (CVE-2014-3513)
916 [OpenSSL team]
917
918 *) Session Ticket Memory Leak.
919
920 When an OpenSSL SSL/TLS/DTLS server receives a session ticket the
921 integrity of that ticket is first verified. In the event of a session
922 ticket integrity check failing, OpenSSL will fail to free memory
923 causing a memory leak. By sending a large number of invalid session
924 tickets an attacker could exploit this issue in a Denial Of Service
925 attack.
926 (CVE-2014-3567)
927 [Steve Henson]
928
929 *) Build option no-ssl3 is incomplete.
930
931 When OpenSSL is configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
932 could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake, and clients could be
933 configured to send them.
934 (CVE-2014-3568)
935 [Akamai and the OpenSSL team]
936
937 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
938 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
939 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
940 (CVE-2014-3566)
941 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
942
943 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
944
945 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
946 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
947 DigestInfo structures.
948
949 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
950
951 [Steve Henson]
952
953 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
954
955 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
956 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
957 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
958
959 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
960 Group for discovering this issue.
961 (CVE-2014-3512)
962 [Steve Henson]
963
964 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
965 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
966 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
967 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
968 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
969
970 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
971 researching this issue.
972 (CVE-2014-3511)
973 [David Benjamin]
974
975 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
976 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
977 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
978 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
979
980 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
981 issue.
982 (CVE-2014-3510)
983 [Emilia Käsper]
984
985 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
986 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
987 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
988 (CVE-2014-3507)
989 [Adam Langley]
990
991 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
992 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
993 Denial of Service attack.
994 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
995 (CVE-2014-3506)
996 [Adam Langley]
997
998 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
999 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
1000 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
1001 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
1002 this issue.
1003 (CVE-2014-3505)
1004 [Adam Langley]
1005
1006 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
1007 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
1008 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
1009
1010 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
1011 issue.
1012 (CVE-2014-3509)
1013 [Gabor Tyukasz]
1014
1015 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
1016 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
1017 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
1018 Denial of Service attack.
1019
1020 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
1021 discovering and researching this issue.
1022 (CVE-2014-5139)
1023 [Steve Henson]
1024
1025 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
1026 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
1027 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
1028 output to the attacker.
1029
1030 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
1031 (CVE-2014-3508)
1032 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
1033
1034 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
1035 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
1036 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
1037 [Bodo Moeller]
1038
1039 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
1040
1041 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
1042 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
1043 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
1044
1045 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
1046 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
1047 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
1048
1049 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
1050 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
1051 in a DoS attack.
1052
1053 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
1054 (CVE-2014-0221)
1055 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
1056
1057 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
1058 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
1059 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
1060 code on a vulnerable client or server.
1061
1062 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
1063 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
1064
1065 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
1066 are subject to a denial of service attack.
1067
1068 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
1069 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
1070 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
1071
1072 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
1073 compilation flags.
1074 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1075
1076 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
1077 in i2d_ECPrivateKey. Thanks to Ted Unangst for feedback on this issue.
1078 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1079
1080 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
1081 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
1082
1083 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
1084
1085 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
1086 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
1087 server.
1088
1089 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
1090 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
1091 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
1092 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
1093
1094 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
1095 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
1096 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
1097 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
1098
1099 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
1100 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
1101 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
1102
1103 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
1104
1105 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
1106 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
1107 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
1108 is at least 512 bytes long.
1109
1110 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
1111
1112 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
1113
1114 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
1115 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
1116 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
1117 (CVE-2013-4353)
1118
1119 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
1120 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
1121 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
1122 [Steve Henson]
1123
1124 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
1125 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
1126 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
1127 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
1128 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
1129 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
1130 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
1131
1132 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
1133
1134 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
1135 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
1136 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1137
1138 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
1139
1140 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1141
1142 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1143 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1144 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1145
1146 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1147 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1148 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1149 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1150 (CVE-2013-0169)
1151 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
1154 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
1155 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
1156 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
1157 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
1158 (CVE-2012-2686)
1159 [Adam Langley]
1160
1161 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1162 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1163 [Steve Henson]
1164
1165 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
1166 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1167
1168 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1169 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1170 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1171 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1172 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
1173
1174 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
1175 [Steve Henson]
1176
1177 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
1178 if renegotiating.
1179 [Steve Henson]
1180
1181 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
1182
1183 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
1184 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
1185
1186 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
1187 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
1188 (CVE-2012-2333)
1189 [Steve Henson]
1190
1191 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
1192 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
1193 [Steve Henson]
1194
1195 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
1196 approved.
1197 [Steve Henson]
1198
1199 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
1200
1201 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1202 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
1203 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
1204 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
1205 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
1206 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
1207 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
1208 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
1209 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
1210 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
1211 [Steve Henson]
1212
1213 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
1214 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
1215 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
1216 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
1217 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
1218 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
1219 client side.
1220 [Andy Polyakov]
1221
1222 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
1223
1224 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
1225 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
1226 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
1227
1228 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
1229 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
1230 (CVE-2012-2110)
1231 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
1232
1233 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
1234 [Adam Langley]
1235
1236 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
1237 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
1238
1239 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
1240 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
1241 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
1242 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
1243 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
1244 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
1245 Most broken servers should now work.
1246 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
1247 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
1248 [Steve Henson]
1249
1250 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
1251 [Andy Polyakov]
1252
1253 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
1254
1255 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
1256 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
1257 [Steve Henson]
1258
1259 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
1260 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
1261 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
1262 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
1263 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
1264 [Steve Henson]
1265
1266 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
1267 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
1268 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
1269 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
1270 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
1271 [Steve Henson]
1272
1273 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
1274 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1275
1276 *) Add support for SCTP.
1277 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1278
1279 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1280 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1281
1282 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
1283
1284 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
1285 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
1286 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
1287 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
1288 - s390x: z196 support;
1289 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
1290
1291 [Andy Polyakov]
1292
1293 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
1294 (removal of unnecessary code)
1295 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
1296
1297 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
1298 [Eric Rescorla]
1299
1300 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
1301 [Eric Rescorla]
1302
1303 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
1304 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
1305 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
1306 by Google.
1307 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
1308
1309 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
1310 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
1311 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
1312 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
1313 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
1314
1315 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
1316 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
1317 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
1318
1319 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
1320 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
1321 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
1322
1323 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
1324 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
1325 implementations).
1326 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1327
1328 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
1329 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
1330 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
1331 [Steve Henson]
1332
1333 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
1334 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
1335 particular PSS.
1336 [Steve Henson]
1337
1338 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
1339 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
1340 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
1341 [Steve Henson]
1342
1343 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
1344 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
1345 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
1346 the appropriate parameters.
1347 [Steve Henson]
1348
1349 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
1350 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
1351 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
1352 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
1353 against a number of sample certificates.
1354 [Steve Henson]
1355
1356 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
1357 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
1358
1359 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
1360 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
1361
1362 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
1363 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
1364 parameters r, s.
1365 [Steve Henson]
1366
1367 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
1368 RFC3211.
1369 [Steve Henson]
1370
1371 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
1372 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
1373 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
1374 password based CMS).
1375 [Steve Henson]
1376
1377 *) Session-handling fixes:
1378 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
1379 but also support Session Tickets.
1380 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
1381 presented a ticket with an expired session.
1382 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
1383 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
1384 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
1385 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1386
1387 *) Fix PSK session representation.
1388 [Bodo Moeller]
1389
1390 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
1391
1392 This work was sponsored by Intel.
1393 [Andy Polyakov]
1394
1395 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
1396 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
1397 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
1398 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
1399 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
1400 [Steve Henson]
1401
1402 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
1403 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
1404 [Steve Henson]
1405
1406 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
1407 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
1408 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
1409 [Steve Henson]
1410
1411 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
1412 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
1413 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
1414 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
1415 [Steve Henson]
1416
1417 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
1418 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
1419 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
1420 [Steve Henson]
1421
1422 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
1423 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
1424
1425 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
1429 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
1430 [Steve Henson]
1431
1432 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
1433 [Steve Henson]
1434
1435 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
1436 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
1437 [Steve Henson]
1438
1439 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
1440 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
1441 [Steve Henson]
1442
1443 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
1444 [Steve Henson]
1445
1446 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
1447 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
1448 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
1449 [Steve Henson]
1450
1451 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1452 [Steve Henson]
1453
1454 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
1455 [Steve Henson]
1456
1457 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
1458 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
1459 [Steve Henson]
1460
1461 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
1462 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
1463 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
1464 [Steve Henson]
1465
1466 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
1467 [Steve Henson]
1468
1469 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
1470 and enable MD5.
1471 [Steve Henson]
1472
1473 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
1474 FIPS modules versions.
1475 [Steve Henson]
1476
1477 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
1478 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
1479 until after the certificate request message is received.
1480 [Steve Henson]
1481
1482 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
1483 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
1484 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
1485 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
1486 [Steve Henson]
1487
1488 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
1489 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
1490 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
1491 support yet and no support for client certificates.
1492 [Steve Henson]
1493
1494 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
1495 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
1496 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
1497 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
1498 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
1499 and version checking.
1500 [Steve Henson]
1501
1502 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
1503 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
1504 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
1505 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
1506 [Steve Henson]
1507
1508 *) Add SRP support.
1509 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1510
1511 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
1512 [Steve Henson]
1513
1514 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
1515 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
1516 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
1517
1518 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
1519 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
1520 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
1521 [Steve Henson]
1522
1523 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
1524 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
1525
1526 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
1527 a few changes are required:
1528
1529 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
1530 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
1531 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
1532 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
1533 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
1534 [Steve Henson]
1535
1536 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
1537
1538 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
1539 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
1540 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
1541 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
1542 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
1543 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
1544 an MMA defence is not necessary.
1545 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
1546 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
1547 [Steve Henson]
1548
1549 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
1550 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1551 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1552 [Steve Henson]
1553
1554 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1555
1556 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1557 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1558 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1559 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1560 [Antonio Martin]
1561
1562 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1563
1564 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1565 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1566 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1567 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1568 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1569 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1570 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1571 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1572 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1573 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1574 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1575 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1576 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1577
1578 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1579 (CVE-2011-4576)
1580 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1581
1582 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1583 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1584 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1585 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1586
1587 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1588 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1589
1590 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1591 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1592 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1593 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1594
1595 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1596 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1597
1598 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1599 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1600
1601 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1602 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1603
1604 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1605 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1606 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1607
1608 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1609 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1610 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1611
1612 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1613 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1614 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1615 the last update always remained unused).
1616 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1617
1618 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1619 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1620
1621 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1622
1623 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1624 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1625 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1626
1627 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1628 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1629 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1630
1631 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1632 [Bodo Moeller]
1633
1634 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1635 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1636 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1637 [Steve Henson]
1638
1639 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1640 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1641
1642 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1643
1644 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1645
1646 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1647
1648 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1649 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1650
1651 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1652 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1653 ambiguous.
1654 [Steve Henson]
1655
1656 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1657
1658 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1659 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1660 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1661 [Steve Henson]
1662
1663 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1664 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1665 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1666 [Ben Laurie]
1667
1668 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1669
1670 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1671 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1672 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1673 [Steve Henson]
1674
1675 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1676 a DLL.
1677 [Steve Henson]
1678
1679 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1680
1681 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1682 (CVE-2010-1633)
1683 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1684
1685 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1686
1687 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1688 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1689 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1690 [Steve Henson]
1691
1692 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1693 [Steve Henson]
1694
1695 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1696 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1697 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1698
1699 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1700 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1701 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1702 [Steve Henson]
1703
1704 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1705 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1706 [Steve Henson]
1707
1708 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1709 some responders need this.
1710 [Steve Henson]
1711
1712 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1713 correctly.
1714 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1715
1716 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1717 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1718 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1719 [Steve Henson]
1720
1721 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1722 [Steve Henson]
1723
1724 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1725 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1726 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1727 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1728 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1729 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1730 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1731 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1732 [Steve Henson]
1733
1734 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1735 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1736 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1737 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1738
1739 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1740 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1741
1742 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1743 be used on C++.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
1746 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1747 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1748 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1749 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1750 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1751 attempting to work them out.
1752 [Steve Henson]
1753
1754 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1755 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1756 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1757 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1758 [Steve Henson]
1759
1760 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1761 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1762 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1763 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1764 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1765 [Steve Henson]
1766
1767 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1768 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1769 you can do:
1770
1771 openssl sha256 foo
1772
1773 as well as:
1774
1775 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1776
1777 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1778
1779 [Steve Henson]
1780
1781 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1782 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1783
1784 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1785 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1788 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1789 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1790 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1791 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1792 [Steve Henson]
1793
1794 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1795 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1796 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1797 [Steve Henson]
1798
1799 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1800 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1801 [Steve Henson]
1802
1803 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1804 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1805
1806 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1807 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1808 [Steve Henson]
1809
1810 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1811 [Ben Laurie]
1812
1813 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1814 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1815 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1816 CONF_VALUE.
1817 [Ben Laurie]
1818
1819 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1820 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1821 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1822 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1823 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1824 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1825 [Steve Henson]
1826
1827 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1828 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1829
1830 This work was sponsored by Google.
1831 [Steve Henson]
1832
1833 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1834 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1835 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1836 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1837 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1838 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1839 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1840 default.
1841
1842 This work was sponsored by Google.
1843 [Steve Henson]
1844
1845 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1846
1847 This work was sponsored by Google.
1848 [Steve Henson]
1849
1850 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1851 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1852 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1853 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1854
1855 This work was sponsored by Google.
1856 [Steve Henson]
1857
1858 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1859 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1860 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1861 CRL functionality in future.
1862
1863 This work was sponsored by Google.
1864 [Steve Henson]
1865
1866 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1867
1868 This work was sponsored by Google.
1869 [Steve Henson]
1870
1871 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1872 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1873
1874 This work was sponsored by Google.
1875 [Steve Henson]
1876
1877 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1878 and URI types are currently supported.
1879
1880 This work was sponsored by Google.
1881 [Steve Henson]
1882
1883 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1884 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1885 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1886 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1887 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1888 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1889 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1890 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1891
1892 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1893 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1894 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1895
1896 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1897 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1898 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1899 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1900
1901 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1902 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1903 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1904 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1905 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1906 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1907 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1908 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1909 of &errno.)
1910 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1911
1912 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1913 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1914 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1915
1916 This work was sponsored by Google.
1917 [Steve Henson]
1918
1919 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1920 [Ben Laurie]
1921
1922 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1923 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1924 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1925 [Ben Laurie]
1926
1927 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1928 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1929 [Nick Mathewson]
1930
1931 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1932 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1933 [Ben Laurie]
1934
1935 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1936 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1937 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1938 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1939 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1940 content types and variants.
1941 [Steve Henson]
1942
1943 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1944 [Steve Henson]
1945
1946 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1947 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1948 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1949 files from the associated perl scripts.
1950 [Steve Henson]
1951
1952 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1953 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1954 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1955
1956 *) s390x assembler pack.
1957 [Andy Polyakov]
1958
1959 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1960 "family."
1961 [Andy Polyakov]
1962
1963 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1964 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1965 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1966 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1967 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1968 to use. For example, specify an option
1969
1970 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1971
1972 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1973 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1974 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1975 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1976 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1977 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1978
1979 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1980 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1981 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1982 return non-zero for success.
1983
1984 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1985 by using
1986
1987 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1988 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1989
1990 where
1991
1992 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1993 void *arg;
1994
1995 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1996 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1997 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1998 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1999 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
2000 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
2001 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
2002 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
2003 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
2004
2005 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
2006 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
2007 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
2008 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
2009 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
2010 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
2011
2012 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
2013 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
2014 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
2015 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
2016 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
2017 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
2018
2019 [Bodo Moeller]
2020
2021 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
2022 MAC.
2023
2024 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
2025
2026 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2027 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2028 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2029 supported.
2030
2031 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2032 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2033 SSL_SESSION.
2034
2035 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2036 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2037 with no application modification.
2038
2039 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2040 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2041
2042 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2043 or server extensions to be examined.
2044
2045 This work was sponsored by Google.
2046 [Steve Henson]
2047
2048 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
2049 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
2050 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
2051
2052 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
2053 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
2054 ciphersuite support.
2055 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
2056
2057 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
2058 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
2059 to output in BER and PEM format.
2060 [Steve Henson]
2061
2062 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
2063 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
2064 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
2065 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
2066 -macopt options to dgst utility.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
2070 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
2071 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
2072 utility.
2073 [Steve Henson]
2074
2075 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
2076 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
2077 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
2078 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
2079 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
2080 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
2081 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
2082 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
2083 enabled again.
2084
2085 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
2086 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
2087 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
2088 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
2089
2090 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
2091 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
2092 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
2093 the default order.
2094 [Bodo Moeller]
2095
2096 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
2097 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
2098 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
2099 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
2100 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
2101 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
2102 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
2103 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
2104 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
2105
2106 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
2107 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
2108 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
2109 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
2110 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
2111 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
2112 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
2113 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
2114 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
2115 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
2116 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
2117 kinds of kludges.
2118
2119 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
2120 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
2121 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
2122
2123 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
2124 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
2125 "CAMELLIA256".
2126 [Bodo Moeller]
2127
2128 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
2129 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
2130 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
2131 [Nils Larsch]
2132
2133 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
2134 it yet and it is largely untested.
2135 [Steve Henson]
2136
2137 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
2138 [Nils Larsch]
2139
2140 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
2141 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
2142 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
2143 [Steve Henson]
2144
2145 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
2146 [Andy Polyakov]
2147
2148 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
2149 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
2150 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
2151 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
2152 [Steve Henson]
2153
2154 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
2155 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
2156 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
2157 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
2158 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
2159 [Steve Henson]
2160
2161 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
2162 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
2163 [Cryptocom]
2164
2165 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
2166 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
2167 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
2168 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
2169 [Steve Henson]
2170
2171 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
2172 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
2173 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
2174 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
2175 [Steve Henson]
2176
2177 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
2178 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
2179 [Steve Henson]
2180
2181 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
2182 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
2183 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
2184 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
2185 [Steve Henson]
2186
2187 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
2188 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
2189 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
2190 [Steve Henson]
2191
2192 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
2193 utility.
2194 [Steve Henson]
2195
2196 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
2197 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
2198 [Steve Henson]
2199
2200 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
2201 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
2202 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
2203 if necessary.
2204 [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
2207 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
2208 to free up any added signature OIDs.
2209 [Steve Henson]
2210
2211 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
2212 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
2213 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
2214 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
2215 [Steve Henson]
2216
2217 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
2218 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
2219 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
2220 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
2221 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
2222 the array representation useful in a more general context.
2223 [Douglas Stebila]
2224
2225 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
2226 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
2227 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
2228 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
2229 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
2230
2231 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
2232 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
2233 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
2234 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
2235 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
2236 protocol).
2237
2238 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
2239 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
2240 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
2241 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
2242
2243 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
2244 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
2245 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
2246 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
2247 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
2248
2249 aECDH - ECDH cert
2250 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
2251 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
2252
2253 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
2254 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
2255
2256 [Bodo Moeller]
2257
2258 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
2259 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
2260 [Steve Henson]
2261
2262 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
2263 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
2264 [Steve Henson]
2265
2266 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
2267 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
2268 functional reference processing.
2269 [Steve Henson]
2270
2271 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
2272 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
2273 process.
2274 [Steve Henson]
2275
2276 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
2277 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
2278 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
2279 [Steve Henson]
2280
2281 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
2282 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
2283 application to support multiple signers.
2284 [Steve Henson]
2285
2286 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
2287 digest MAC.
2288 [Steve Henson]
2289
2290 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
2291 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
2292 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
2293 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
2294 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
2297 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
2298 new API.
2299 [Steve Henson]
2300
2301 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
2302 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
2303 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
2304 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
2305 a no op.
2306 [Steve Henson]
2307
2308 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
2309 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
2310 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
2311 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
2312 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
2313 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
2314 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
2315 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
2316 [Steve Henson]
2317
2318 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
2319 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
2320 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
2321 between digests and public key types.
2322 [Steve Henson]
2323
2324 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
2325 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
2326 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
2327 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
2328 [Steve Henson]
2329
2330 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
2331 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
2332 key ASN1 method.
2333 [Steve Henson]
2334
2335 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
2336 [Steve Henson]
2337
2338 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
2339 pkeyutl.
2340 [Steve Henson]
2341
2342 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
2343 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
2344 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
2345 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
2346 pkey, genpkey.
2347 [Steve Henson]
2348
2349 *) BeOS support.
2350 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2351
2352 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
2353 manual pages.
2354 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
2355
2356 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
2357 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
2358 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
2359 functionality for RSA.
2360 [Steve Henson]
2361
2362 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
2363 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
2364 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
2365 [Steve Henson]
2366
2367 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
2368 key API, doesn't do much yet.
2369 [Steve Henson]
2370
2371 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
2372 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
2373 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
2374 [Steve Henson]
2375
2376 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
2377 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2378 [Douglas Stebila]
2379
2380 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
2381 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
2382 [Steve Henson]
2383
2384 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
2385 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
2386 type.
2387 [Steve Henson]
2388
2389 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
2390 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
2391 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
2392 structure.
2393 [Steve Henson]
2394
2395 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
2396 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
2397 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
2398 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
2399 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
2400 of public and private key structures.
2401 [Steve Henson]
2402
2403 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
2404 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
2405 [Douglas Stebila]
2406
2407 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
2408 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
2409 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
2410
2411 New ciphersuites:
2412 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
2413 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
2414
2415 New functions:
2416 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
2417 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
2418 SSL_get_psk_identity
2419 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
2420
2421 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
2422
2423 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
2424 and response verification functionality.
2425 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
2426
2427 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2428 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2429 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2430 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2431 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2432 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2433 server_name extension.
2434
2435 New functions (subject to change):
2436
2437 SSL_get_servername()
2438 SSL_get_servername_type()
2439 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2440
2441 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2442
2443 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2444 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2445 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2446 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2447 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2448
2449 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2450
2451 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2452 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2453 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2454 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2455 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2456 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2457 option.
2458
2459 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
2460
2461 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
2462 [Andy Polyakov]
2463
2464 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
2465 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
2466 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
2467 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
2468 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
2469 [Andy Polyakov]
2470
2471 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
2472 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
2473 macro.
2474 [Bodo Moeller]
2475
2476 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
2477 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
2478 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
2479 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
2480 [Andy Polyakov]
2481
2482 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
2483 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
2484 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
2485 using the maximum available value.
2486 [Steve Henson]
2487
2488 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
2489 in addition to the text details.
2490 [Bodo Moeller]
2491
2492 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
2493 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
2494 handle several customised structures at all.
2495 [Steve Henson]
2496
2497 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
2498 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
2499 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
2500 [Steve Henson]
2501
2502 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
2503 [Steve Henson]
2504
2505 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
2506 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
2507 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
2508 [Steve Henson]
2509
2510 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
2511 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
2512 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
2513 [Nils Larsch]
2514
2515 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
2516 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
2517 all fields.
2518 [Steve Henson]
2519
2520 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
2521 [Steve Henson]
2522
2523 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
2524 [NTT]
2525
2526 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2527
2528 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2529 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2530 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2531 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2532 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2533 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2534 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2535 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2536
2537 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2538 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2539 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2540
2541 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2542
2543 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2544 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2545
2546 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2547 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2548 [Bodo Moeller]
2549
2550 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2551 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2552 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2553 [Steve Henson]
2554
2555 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2556 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2557 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2558 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2559 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2560 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2561 [Steve Henson]
2562
2563 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2564 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2565 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2566 [Steve Henson]
2567
2568 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2569 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2570 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2571 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2572 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2573 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2574 CVE-2009-4355.
2575 [Steve Henson]
2576
2577 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2578 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2579 [Bodo Moeller]
2580
2581 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2582 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2583 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2584 [Steve Henson]
2585
2586 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2587 [Steve Henson]
2588
2589 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2590 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2591 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2592 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2593 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2594 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2595 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2596 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2597 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2598 [Steve Henson]
2599
2600 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2601 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2602 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2603 [Steve Henson]
2604
2605 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2606 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2607 [Steve Henson]
2608
2609 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2610 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2611 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2612 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2613 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2614 know what you are doing.
2615 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2616
2617 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2618 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2619 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2620 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2621 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2622 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2623 the handshake.
2624 [Steve Henson]
2625
2626 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2627 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2628 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2629 correctly.
2630 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2631
2632 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2633 warnings in other configurations.
2634 [Steve Henson]
2635
2636 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2637 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2638 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2639 systems need.
2640 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2641
2642 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2643 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2644 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2645
2646 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2647 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2648 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2649 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2650 [Steve Henson]
2651
2652 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2653 and restored.
2654 [Steve Henson]
2655
2656 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2657 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2658 clash.
2659 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2660
2661 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2662 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2663 other than a simple chain.
2664 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2665
2666 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2667 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2668 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2669 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2670 [Steve Henson]
2671
2672 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2673 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2674 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2675 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2676 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2677 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2678 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2679 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2680 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2681
2682 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2683 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2684 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2685 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2686 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2687 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2688 (CVE-2009-1377)
2689 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2690
2691 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2692 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2693 [Daniel Mentz]
2694
2695 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2696 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2697
2698 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2699 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2700
2701 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2702
2703 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2704 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2705 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2706 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2707 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2708 you're doing.
2709 [Ben Laurie]
2710
2711 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2712
2713 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2714 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2715 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2716 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2717
2718 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2719 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2720 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2721 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2722
2723 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2724 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2725 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2726 [Steve Henson]
2727
2728 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2729 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2730 level.
2731 [Steve Henson]
2732
2733 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2734 to handle some structures.
2735 [Steve Henson]
2736
2737 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2738 for a '\n'
2739 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2740
2741 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2742 [Matthieu Herrb]
2743
2744 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2745 [Steve Henson]
2746
2747 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2748 [Steve Henson]
2749
2750 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2751 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2752 chosen compiler.
2753 [Ben Laurie]
2754
2755 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2756
2757 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2758 (CVE-2008-5077).
2759 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2760
2761 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2762 [Ben Laurie]
2763
2764 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2765 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2766 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2767 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2768
2769 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2770 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2771
2772 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2773 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2774 [Bodo Moeller]
2775
2776 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2777 s_client and s_server.
2778 [Ben Laurie]
2779
2780 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2781 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2782
2783 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2784 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2785
2786 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2787 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2788 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2789 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2790 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2791 [Bodo Moeller]
2792
2793 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2794
2795 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2796 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2797 [PR #1679]
2798
2799 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2800 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2801 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2802
2803 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2804 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2805 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2806 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2807
2808 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2809 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2810
2811 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2812
2813 *) Various precautionary measures:
2814
2815 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2816
2817 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2818 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2819 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2820
2821 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2822 outside the expected range.
2823
2824 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2825 builds.
2826
2827 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2828
2829 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2830 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2831 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2832
2833 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2834 [Steve Henson]
2835
2836 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2837 [Huang Ying]
2838
2839 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2840
2841 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2842 [Steve Henson]
2843
2844 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2845 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2846 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2847
2848 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2849 [Steve Henson]
2850
2851 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2852 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2853 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2854 files.
2855 [Steve Henson]
2856
2857 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2858
2859 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2860 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2861 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2862 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2863
2864 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2865 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2866 [Joe Orton]
2867
2868 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2869
2870 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2871 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2872 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2873
2874 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2875
2876 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2877 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2878 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2879 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2880 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2881
2882 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2883 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2884 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2885 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2886 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2887 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2888 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2889
2890 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2891
2892 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2893 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2894 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2895 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2896 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2897
2898 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2899 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2900
2901 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2902 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2903 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2904 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2905 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2906
2907 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2908
2909 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2910 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2911 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2912 sets may exist with different names.
2913 [Steve Henson]
2914
2915 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2916 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2917 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2918 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2919 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2920 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2921 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2922 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2923 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2924 implementation.
2925 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2926
2927 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2928 implemention in the following ways:
2929
2930 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2931 hard coded.
2932
2933 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2934 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2935 ignored for embedded content.
2936
2937 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2938 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2939 [Steve Henson]
2940
2941 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2942 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2943 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2944 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2945
2946 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2947 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2948 [Steve Henson]
2949
2950 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2951 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2952 [Steve Henson]
2953
2954 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2955 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2956 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2957 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2958 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2959 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2960 data.
2961 [Steve Henson]
2962
2963 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2964 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2965 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2966
2967 *) Netware support:
2968
2969 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2970 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2971 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2972 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2973 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2974 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2975 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2976 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2977 platform
2978 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2979 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2980 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2981 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2982 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2983 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2984 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2985
2986 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2987 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2988 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2989 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2990 to s_client and s_server.
2991 [Steve Henson]
2992
2993 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2994
2995 *) Fix various bugs:
2996 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2997 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2998 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2999 + Fix ia64 assembler code
3000 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
3001
3002 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
3003
3004 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
3005 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
3006 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
3007 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
3008 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
3009 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
3010 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
3011 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
3012 [Andy Polyakov]
3013
3014 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
3015 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
3016 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
3017 Steve Henson]
3018
3019 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
3020 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
3021 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
3022 supported.
3023
3024 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
3025 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
3026 SSL_SESSION.
3027
3028 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
3029 protection in servers so again support should be possible
3030 with no application modification.
3031
3032 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
3033 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
3034
3035 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
3036 or server extensions to be examined.
3037
3038 This work was sponsored by Google.
3039 [Steve Henson]
3040
3041 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
3042 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
3043 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
3044 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
3045 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
3046 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
3047 server_name extension.
3048
3049 New functions (subject to change):
3050
3051 SSL_get_servername()
3052 SSL_get_servername_type()
3053 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
3054
3055 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
3056
3057 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
3058 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
3059 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
3060 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
3061 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
3062
3063 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
3064
3065 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
3066 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
3067 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
3068 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
3069 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
3070 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
3071 option.
3072
3073 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
3074
3075 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
3076 [Steve Henson]
3077
3078 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
3079 [Andy Polyakov]
3080
3081 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
3082 (which previously caused an internal error).
3083 [Bodo Moeller]
3084
3085 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
3086 [Ben Laurie]
3087
3088 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
3089 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
3090
3091 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
3092 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
3093 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
3094
3095 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
3096 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
3097 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
3098 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
3099
3100 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3101 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3102 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
3103 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
3104
3105 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
3106 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
3107 information. For detailed background information, see
3108 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
3109 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
3110 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
3111 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
3112 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
3113 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
3114 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
3115 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
3116 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
3117 remove a conditional branch.
3118
3119 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
3120 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
3121 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
3122 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
3123 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
3124 remains as a deprecated alias.
3125
3126 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
3127 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
3128 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
3129 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
3130
3131 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
3132 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
3133 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
3134 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
3135 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
3136 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
3137 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
3138 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
3139
3140 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
3141
3142 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
3143 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
3144 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
3145 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
3146 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
3147 with applications using a single external cache for quite
3148 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
3149 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
3150 in a different context.
3151 [Bodo Moeller]
3152
3153 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3154 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3155 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3156 [Bodo Moeller]
3157
3158 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
3159 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
3160 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
3161
3162 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
3163
3164 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
3165 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
3166 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3167 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
3168 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
3169 [Victor Duchovni]
3170
3171 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
3172 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
3173 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
3174 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
3175 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
3176 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
3177 [Bodo Moeller]
3178
3179 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3180 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3181 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3182 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3183 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3184 [Bodo Moeller]
3185
3186 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
3187 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
3188
3189 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3190 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3191 Improve header file function name parsing.
3192 [Steve Henson]
3193
3194 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
3195 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
3196 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
3197
3198 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
3199
3200 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3201 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3202 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3203
3204 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3205 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3206
3207 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3208 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3209
3210 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3211 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3212 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3213
3214 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
3215 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
3216 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
3217 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
3218 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
3219 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
3220 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
3221 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
3222 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
3223
3224 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
3225 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
3226 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
3227 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
3228 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
3229
3230 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
3231 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
3232 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
3233 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
3234 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
3235 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
3236 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
3237 multiple values to extend the available space.
3238
3239 [Bodo Moeller]
3240
3241 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
3242
3243 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3244 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3245
3246 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
3247 [Ben Laurie]
3248
3249 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3250 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3251 undesirable limitations.
3252 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3253
3254 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
3255 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
3256 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
3257 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
3258 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
3259 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
3260 to avoid potential handshake problems.
3261 [Bodo Moeller]
3262
3263 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3264
3265 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3266 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3267 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3268
3269 The latter two were purportedly from
3270 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3271 appear there.
3272
3273 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
3274 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3275 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3276 [Bodo Moeller]
3277
3278 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3279 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3280 [Bodo Moeller]
3281
3282 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
3283 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
3284 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
3285 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
3286
3287 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
3288 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
3289 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
3290 [NTT]
3291
3292 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
3293 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
3294 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
3295 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
3296 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
3297 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
3298 [Steve Henson]
3299
3300 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
3301
3302 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
3303 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
3304 [Steve Henson]
3305
3306 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
3307 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
3308
3309 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3310 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
3311 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
3312 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
3313 [Douglas Stebila]
3314
3315 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
3316 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
3317 [Steve Henson]
3318
3319 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
3320 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
3321 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
3322 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
3323 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
3324 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
3325 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
3326 can't be loaded.
3327 [Steve Henson]
3328
3329 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3330 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3331 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3332 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3333 [Steve Henson]
3334
3335 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3336 under VC++ build system.
3337 [Steve Henson]
3338
3339 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3340 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3341 [Richard Levitte]
3342
3343 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3344
3345 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3346 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3347 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3348 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3349 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3350
3351 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3352 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3353 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3354
3355 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3356 [Steve Henson]
3357
3358 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3359 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3360 [Nils Larsch]
3361
3362 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3363 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3364
3365 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3366 [Nick Mathewson]
3367
3368 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3369 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3370
3371 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3372 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3373 [Steve Henson]
3374
3375 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3376 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3377 smime utility.
3378 [Steve Henson]
3379
3380 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3381
3382 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3383 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3384
3385 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3386 [Richard Levitte]
3387
3388 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3389 key into the same file any more.
3390 [Richard Levitte]
3391
3392 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3393 [Andy Polyakov]
3394
3395 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3396 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3397
3398 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3399 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3400 [Richard Levitte]
3401
3402 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3403 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3404 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3405 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3406 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3407 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3408
3409 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3410 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3411 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3412 [Steve Henson]
3413
3414 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3415 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3416 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3417 - add new function for parameter creation
3418 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3419 BN_BLINDING parameters
3420 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3421 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3422 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3423 threads.
3424 [Nils Larsch]
3425
3426 *) Add support for DTLS.
3427 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3428
3429 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3430 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3431 [Walter Goulet]
3432
3433 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3434 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3435 [Nils Larsch]
3436
3437 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3438 the apps/openssl applications.
3439 [Nils Larsch]
3440
3441 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3442 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3443 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3444 [Ben Laurie]
3445
3446 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3447 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3448
3449 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3450 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3451
3452 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3453 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3454 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3455 avoid this algorithm.)
3456
3457 [Bodo Moeller]
3458
3459 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3460 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3461 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3462 [Richard Levitte]
3463
3464 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3465 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3466 [Andy Polyakov]
3467
3468 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3469 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3470 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3471 pod file:
3472
3473 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3474
3475 The blank line is mandatory.
3476
3477 [Steve Henson]
3478
3479 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3480 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3481 sources.
3482 [Steve Henson]
3483
3484 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3485 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3486
3487 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3488 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3489 to support policy checking and print out.
3490 [Steve Henson]
3491
3492 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3493 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3494 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3495 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3496
3497 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3498 [Geoff Thorpe]
3499
3500 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3501 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3502
3503 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3504 implementation contributed by IBM.
3505 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3506
3507 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3508 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3509 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3510 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3511
3512 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3513 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3514
3515 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3516 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3517 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3518 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3519 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3520 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3521 [Steve Henson]
3522
3523 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3524 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3525 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3526 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3527 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3528 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3529 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3530 [Geoff Thorpe]
3531
3532 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3533 [Steve Henson]
3534
3535 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3536 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3537 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3538 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3539 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3540 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3541 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3542 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3543 [Steve Henson]
3544
3545 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3546 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3547 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3548 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3549 [Steve Henson]
3550
3551 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3552 syntax:
3553
3554 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3555 [Steve Henson]
3556
3557 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3558 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3559 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3560 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3561 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3562 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3563 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3564 [Geoff Thorpe]
3565
3566 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3567 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3568 [Geoff Thorpe]
3569
3570 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3571 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3572 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3573 [Steve Henson]
3574
3575 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3576 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3577 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3578 below).
3579 [Geoff Thorpe]
3580
3581 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3582 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3583 [Richard Levitte]
3584
3585 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3586 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3587 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3588 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3589 [Geoff Thorpe]
3590
3591 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3592 initialised value as BN_new().
3593 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3594
3595 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3599 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3600 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3601 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3602 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3603 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3604 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3605 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3606 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3607 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3608 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3609 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3610 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3611 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3612 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3613
3614 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3615 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3616 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3617 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3618 [Geoff Thorpe]
3619
3620 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3621 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3622 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3623 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3624 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3625 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3626 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3627 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3628 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3629 [Geoff Thorpe]
3630
3631 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3632 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3633 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3634 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3635 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3636 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3637 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3638 [Geoff Thorpe]
3639
3640 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3641 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3642 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3643 these have been updated also.
3644 [Geoff Thorpe]
3645
3646 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3647 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3648 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3649 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3650 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3651 functions.
3652 [Steve Henson]
3653
3654 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3655 structure of type "other".
3656 [Steve Henson]
3657
3658 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3659 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3660 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3661 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3662 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3663 situation in the script.
3664 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3665
3666 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3667 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3668 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3669 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3670 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3671 used as premaster secret.
3672 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3673
3674 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3675 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3676 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3677
3678 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3679 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3680
3681 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3682 control of the error stack.
3683 [Richard Levitte]
3684
3685 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3686 [Richard Levitte]
3687
3688 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3689 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3690 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3691 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3692 [Richard Levitte]
3693
3694 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3695 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3696 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3697 [Richard Levitte]
3698
3699 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3700 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3701 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3702 a memory area.
3703 [Richard Levitte]
3704
3705 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3706 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3707 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3708 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3709 [Richard Levitte]
3710
3711 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3712 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3713 the following flags are defined:
3714
3715 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3716 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3717 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3718 number.
3719
3720 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3721 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3722 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3723 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3724 returns zero.
3725 [Richard Levitte]
3726
3727 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3728 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3729 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3730 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3731 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3732 [Richard Levitte]
3733
3734 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3735 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3736 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3737 [Richard Levitte]
3738
3739 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3740 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3741 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3742 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3743 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3744 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3745 [Richard Levitte]
3746
3747 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3748 req and dirName.
3749 [Steve Henson]
3750
3751 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3752 [Steve Henson]
3753
3754 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3755 [Steve Henson]
3756
3757 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3758 [Steve Henson]
3759
3760 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3761 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3762 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3763 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3764 default implementation more easily.
3765 [Geoff Thorpe]
3766
3767 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3768 in config files.
3769 [Steve Henson]
3770
3771 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3772 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3773 [Richard Levitte]
3774
3775 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3776 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3777 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3778 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3779
3780 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3781 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3782 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3783 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3784 [Steve Henson]
3785
3786 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3787 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3788 to do it.
3789 [Richard Levitte]
3790
3791 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3792 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3793 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3794 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3795 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3796 scalar * generator).
3797 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3798
3799 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3800 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3801 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3802 correctly.
3803 [Steve Henson]
3804
3805 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3806 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3807 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3808 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3809 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3810 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3811 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3812 linker additions, eg;
3813 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3814 [Geoff Thorpe]
3815
3816 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3817 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3818 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3819 [Geoff Thorpe]
3820
3821 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3822 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3823 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3824 via PR#459)
3825 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3826
3827 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3828 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3829 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3830 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3831 [Geoff Thorpe]
3832
3833 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3834 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3835 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3836 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3837 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3838 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3839 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3840 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3841 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3842 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3843
3844 Example for using the new callback interface:
3845
3846 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3847 void *my_arg = ...;
3848 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3849
3850 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3851
3852 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3853 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3854 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3855 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3856 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3857 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3858 */
3859
3860 [Geoff Thorpe]
3861
3862 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3863 available to TLS with the number defined in
3864 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3865 [Richard Levitte]
3866
3867 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3868 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3869
3870 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3871 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3872 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3873 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3874
3875 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3876 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3877
3878 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3879 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3880 well.
3881 [Richard Levitte]
3882
3883 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3884 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3885 [Richard Levitte]
3886
3887 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3888 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3889 and a macro that behave like
3890 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3891
3892 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3893 [Nils Larsch]
3894
3895 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3896 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3897 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3898 if applicable.
3899 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3900
3901 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3902 [Bodo Moeller]
3903
3904 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3905 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3906 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3907 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3908 directory engines/.
3909 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3910 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3911 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3912 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3913 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3914 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3915 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3916 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3917
3918 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3919 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3920 [Richard Levitte]
3921
3922 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3923 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3924
3925 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3926 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3927 files while avoiding the low level API.
3928
3929 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3930 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3931 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3932 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3933
3934 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3935 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3936 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3937 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3938 instead of the low level API.
3939 [Steve Henson]
3940
3941 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3942 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3943 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3944 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3945 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3946 PKCS#7 code.
3947
3948 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3949 down to the template encoder.
3950 [Steve Henson]
3951
3952 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3953 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3954 [Bodo Moeller]
3955
3956 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3957 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3958 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3959 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3960
3961 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3962 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3963
3964 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3965 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3966
3967 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3968 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3969 [Bodo Moeller]
3970
3971 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3972 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3973 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3974 [Bodo Moeller]
3975
3976 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3977 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3978
3979 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3980 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3981
3982 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3983 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3984 New EC_METHOD:
3985
3986 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3987
3988 New API functions:
3989
3990 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3991 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3992 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3993 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3994 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3995 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3996
3997 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3998 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3999 enable it).
4000
4001 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
4002 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
4003 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
4004 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
4005 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
4006 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
4007 various internal method names.)
4008
4009 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
4010 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
4011
4012 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4013 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4014
4015 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
4016 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
4017
4018 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
4019 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
4020 methods are undefined.
4021
4022 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4023 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4024
4025 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
4026 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
4027 length of the modulus.
4028
4029 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4030 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4031
4032 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
4033 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
4034
4035 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4036 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4037
4038 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
4039 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
4040 used) in the following functions [macros]:
4041
4042 BN_GF2m_add
4043 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
4044 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
4045 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
4046 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
4047 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
4048 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
4049 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
4050 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
4051 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
4052
4053 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
4054 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
4055
4056 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
4057 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
4058 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
4059 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
4060 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
4061 where
4062 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
4063 This applies to the following functions:
4064
4065 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
4066 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
4067 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
4068 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
4069 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
4070 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
4071 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
4072 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
4073 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4074 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4075
4076 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
4077
4078 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
4079 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
4080
4081 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
4082
4083 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
4084 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
4085 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
4086 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
4087 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
4088
4089 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
4090 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
4091
4092 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
4093 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
4094 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
4095
4096 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
4097 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
4098
4099 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
4100 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
4101 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
4102 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
4103 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4104
4105 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
4106 functions
4107 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
4108 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
4109 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
4110 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
4111 These control ASN1 encoding details:
4112 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
4113 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
4114 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
4115 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
4116 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
4117 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
4118 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
4119
4120 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
4121 functions
4122 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
4123 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
4124 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
4125 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
4126 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4127
4128 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
4129 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
4130 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
4131 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4132
4133 *) Add functions
4134 EC_POINT_point2bn()
4135 EC_POINT_bn2point()
4136 EC_POINT_point2hex()
4137 EC_POINT_hex2point()
4138 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
4139 EC_POINT_oct2point().
4140 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4141
4142 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
4143 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
4144 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
4145 EC_GROUP_get_order()
4146 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
4147 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
4148 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
4149 adding different types of curves.
4150 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
4151
4152 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
4153 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
4154 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
4155 [Bodo Moeller]
4156
4157 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
4158 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
4159
4160 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
4161 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
4162 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
4163 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4164
4165 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
4166
4167 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
4168 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
4169
4170 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
4171 library. Most notably,
4172 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
4173 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
4174 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
4175 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
4176 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
4177 extracted before the specific public key;
4178 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
4179 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4180
4181 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
4182 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
4183 function
4184 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
4185 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
4186 EC_get_builtin_curves().
4187 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
4188 accessed via
4189 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
4190 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
4191 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
4192
4193 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4194 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4195 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4196 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4197 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4198 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4199 differing sizes.
4200 [Richard Levitte]
4201
4202 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
4203
4204 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
4205 sensitive data.
4206 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
4207
4208 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
4209 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
4210 authentication-only ciphersuites.
4211 [Bodo Moeller]
4212
4213 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
4214 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
4215 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
4216 [Victor Duchovni]
4217
4218 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
4219 [Steve Henson]
4220
4221 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
4222 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
4223 [Steve Henson]
4224
4225 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
4226 run algorithm test programs.
4227 [Steve Henson]
4228
4229 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
4230 [Steve Henson]
4231
4232 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
4233 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
4234 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
4235 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
4236 message has informed the client about his choice.)
4237 [Bodo Moeller]
4238
4239 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
4240 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
4241 [Steve Henson]
4242
4243 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
4244
4245 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
4246 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
4247 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
4248
4249 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
4250 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
4251
4252 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
4253 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4254
4255 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
4256 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
4257 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
4258
4259 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
4260 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
4261 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
4262 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
4263 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
4264 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
4265 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
4266 [Bodo Moeller]
4267
4268 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
4269
4270 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
4271 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
4272
4273 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
4274 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
4275 undesirable limitations.
4276 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4277
4278 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
4279
4280 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
4281 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
4282 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
4283
4284 The latter two were purportedly from
4285 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
4286 appear there.
4287
4288 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
4289 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
4290 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
4291 [Bodo Moeller]
4292
4293 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
4294 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
4295 [Bodo Moeller]
4296
4297 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
4298
4299 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
4300 module in FIPS mode.
4301 [Steve Henson]
4302
4303 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
4304 [Steve Henson]
4305
4306 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
4307 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
4308 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
4309 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
4310 [Steve Henson]
4311
4312 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
4313
4314 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
4315 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
4316 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
4317 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
4318 the difference induced by this change.
4319 [Andy Polyakov]
4320
4321 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
4322
4323 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
4324 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
4325 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
4326 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
4327 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
4328
4329 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4330 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4331 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4332
4333 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4334 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4335 [Steve Henson]
4336
4337 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4338 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4339 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4340 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4341 biased k.)
4342 [Bodo Moeller]
4343
4344 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4345 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4346 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4347 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4348 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4349
4350 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4351 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4352 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4353 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4354 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4355 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4356
4357 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4358
4359 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4360 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4361 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4362 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4363 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4364 [Bodo Moeller]
4365
4366 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4367 clients need.
4368 [Steve Henson]
4369
4370 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4371 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4372 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4373 [Steve Henson]
4374
4375 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4376 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4377 structures constant.
4378 [Steve Henson]
4379
4380 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4381
4382 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4383 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4384
4385 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4386 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4387 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4388 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4389 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4390 some needed definitions.
4391 [Steve Henson]
4392
4393 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4394 [Ulf Möller]
4395
4396 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4397 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4398 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4399 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4400 [Richard Levitte]
4401
4402 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4403
4404 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4405 server and client random values. Previously
4406 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4407 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4408
4409 This change has negligible security impact because:
4410
4411 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4412 data.
4413
4414 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4415 handshake.
4416
4417 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4418 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4419 values.
4420
4421 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4422 to our attention.
4423
4424 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4425
4426 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4427 [Ulf Möller]
4428
4429 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4430 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4431 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4432
4433 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4434 [Steve Henson]
4435
4436 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4437 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4438 [Andy Polyakov]
4439
4440 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4441 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4442 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4443
4444 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4445 [Steve Henson]
4446
4447 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4448 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4449 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4450 certificates.
4451 [Steve Henson]
4452
4453 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4454 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4455 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4456 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4457
4458 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4459 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4460 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4461 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4462 been given)
4463 [Richard Levitte]
4464
4465 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4466
4467 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4468 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4469 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4470 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4471 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4472 [Steve Henson]
4473
4474 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4475 [Steve Henson]
4476
4477 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4478 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4479
4480 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4481 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4482 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4483 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4484 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4485 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4486 rather than being initialized to 1.
4487 [Steve Henson]
4488
4489 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4490
4491 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4492 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4493 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4494
4495 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4496 (CVE-2004-0112)
4497 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4498
4499 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4500 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4501 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4502 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4503 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4504 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4505 [Richard Levitte]
4506
4507 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4508 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4509 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4510 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4511 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4512 for these cases.
4513 [Steve Henson]
4514
4515 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4516 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4517 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4518 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4519 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4520 [Steve Henson]
4521
4522 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4523 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4524 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4525 < 0.9.7.
4526 [Steve Henson]
4527
4528 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4529 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4530
4531 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4532 [Steve Henson]
4533
4534 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4535
4536 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4537
4538 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4539 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4540
4541 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4542
4543 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4544 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4545
4546 [Steve Henson]
4547
4548 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4549 exiting on the first error in a request.
4550 [Steve Henson]
4551
4552 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4553 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4554 specifications.
4555 [Steve Henson]
4556
4557 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4558 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4559 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4560 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4561
4562 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4563 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4564 [Richard Levitte]
4565
4566 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4567 blocks during encryption.
4568 [Richard Levitte]
4569
4570 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4571 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4572 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4573 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4574 certain size.
4575 [Steve Henson]
4576
4577 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4578 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4579 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4580 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4581 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4582 parser.
4583 [Steve Henson]
4584
4585 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4586
4587 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4588 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4589 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4590 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4591 [Bodo Moeller]
4592
4593 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4594 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4595 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4596 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4597 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4598
4599 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4600 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4601 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4602 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4603 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4604 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4605 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4606 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4607 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4608 [Bodo Moeller]
4609
4610 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4611 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4612 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4613 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4614 [Geoff Thorpe]
4615
4616 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4617 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4618 [Ulf Moeller]
4619
4620 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4621
4622 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4623 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4624 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4625 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4626 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4627
4628 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4629 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4630 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4631
4632 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4633 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4634 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4635 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4636 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4637
4638 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4639 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4640 used by default when no-err is given.
4641 [Richard Levitte]
4642
4643 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4644 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4645
4646 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4647 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4648 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4649 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4650 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4651
4652 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4653 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4654 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4655 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4656
4657 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4658
4659 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4660
4661 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4662
4663 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4664 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4665 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4666 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4667 root is omitted).
4668 [Steve Henson]
4669
4670 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4671 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4672
4673 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4674 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4675 [Steve Henson]
4676
4677 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4678 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4679 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4680 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4681 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4682
4683 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4684 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4685 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4686 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4687 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4688 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4689 followup to PR #377.
4690 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4691
4692 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4693 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4694 [Andy Polyakov]
4695
4696 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4697 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4698 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4699 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4700
4701 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4702
4703 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4704 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4705
4706 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4707 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4708 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4709 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4710 client and server.
4711 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4712 PR #377.
4713 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4714
4715 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4716 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4717 removed entirely.
4718 [Richard Levitte]
4719
4720 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4721 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4722 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4723 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4724 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4725 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4726 of libcrypto.
4727 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4728 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4729 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4730 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4731 have to be made anyway).
4732 [Richard Levitte]
4733
4734 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4735 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4736 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4737 [Steve Henson]
4738
4739 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4740 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4741 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4742 [Richard Levitte]
4743
4744 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4745 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4746 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4747
4748 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4749 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4750 edit numbers of the version.
4751 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4752
4753 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4754 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4755 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4756
4757 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4758 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4759
4760 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4761 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4762 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4763
4764 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4765 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4766
4767 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4768 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4769
4770 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4771 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4772
4773 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4774 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4775
4776 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4777 overflows.
4778 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4779
4780 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4781 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4782 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4783
4784 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4785 representations in a platform independent manner.
4786 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4787
4788 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4789 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4790 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4791
4792 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4793 indents.
4794 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4795
4796 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4797 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4798
4799 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4800 full. Fixed.
4801 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4802
4803 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4804 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4805 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4806
4807 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4808 unconditionally).
4809 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4810
4811 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4812 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4813
4814 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4815 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4816
4817 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4818 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4819
4820 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4821 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4822
4823 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4824 CBCParameter.
4825 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4826
4827 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4828 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4829
4830 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4831 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4832
4833 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4834 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4835 exploitable.
4836 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4837
4838 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4839 the 0.9.6 release series:
4840
4841 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4842 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4843 (CVE-2002-0657)
4844 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4845
4846 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4847 [Richard Levitte]
4848
4849 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4850 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4851
4852 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4853 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4854
4855 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4856 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4857 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4858 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4859
4860 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4861 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4862 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4863
4864 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4865 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4866 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4867 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4868
4869 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4870 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4871 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4872 some local tweaks:
4873
4874 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4875 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4876 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4877 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4878 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4879 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4880 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4881 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4882 done
4883
4884 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4885 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4886 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4887 [Richard Levitte]
4888
4889 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4890 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4891 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4892 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4893 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4894
4895 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4896 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4897
4898 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4899 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4900 [Richard Levitte]
4901
4902 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4903 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4904 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4905 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4906 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4907 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4908 [Steve Henson]
4909
4910 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4911 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4912 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4913 [Steve Henson]
4914
4915 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4916 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4917 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4918
4919 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4920 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4921 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4922 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4923 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4924 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4925 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4926 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4927
4928 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4929 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4930 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4931 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4932 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4933 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4934 [Steve Henson]
4935
4936 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4937 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4938 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4939 declaration has been changed from
4940 int (*cb)()
4941 into
4942 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4943 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4944 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4945 has been changed into
4946 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4947
4948 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4949 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4950 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4951
4952 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4953 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4954
4955 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4956 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4957 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4958 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4959 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4960 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4961 always load it have also been added.
4962 [Steve Henson]
4963
4964 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4965 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4966 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4967
4968 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4969
4970 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4971 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4972 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4973
4974 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4975 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4976 command line option can be used to specify an
4977 alternative file.
4978 [Steve Henson]
4979
4980 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4981 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4982 [Steve Henson]
4983
4984 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4985 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4986 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4987 [Steve Henson]
4988
4989 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4990 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4991 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4992 to work with the new engine framework.
4993 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4994
4995 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4996 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4997 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4998 to work with the new engine framework.
4999 [Richard Levitte]
5000
5001 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
5002 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
5003 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
5004
5005 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
5006 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
5007
5008 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
5009 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
5010 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
5011 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
5012 FORMAT_IISSGC.
5013 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5014
5015 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
5016 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
5017
5018 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
5019 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
5020
5021 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
5022 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
5023 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
5024 [Ben Laurie]
5025
5026 *) Add new functions
5027 ERR_peek_last_error
5028 ERR_peek_last_error_line
5029 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
5030 These are similar to
5031 ERR_peek_error
5032 ERR_peek_error_line
5033 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
5034 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
5035 still in the error queue.
5036 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
5037
5038 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
5039 like:
5040 default_algorithms = ALL
5041 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
5042 [Steve Henson]
5043
5044 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
5045 [Steve Henson]
5046
5047 *) New experimental application configuration code.
5048 [Steve Henson]
5049
5050 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
5051 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
5052 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
5053 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
5054
5055 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
5056 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
5057
5058 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
5059 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5060
5061 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
5062 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
5063 [Bodo Moeller]
5064
5065 *) New functions/macros
5066
5067 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
5068 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
5069 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
5070 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
5071
5072 to request calling a callback function
5073
5074 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
5075 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
5076
5077 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
5078 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
5079 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
5080 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
5081 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
5082 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
5083 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
5084 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
5085 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
5086 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
5087
5088 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
5089 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
5090 [Bodo Moeller]
5091
5092 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
5093 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
5094 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
5095 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
5096 the configuration scripts.
5097
5098 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
5099 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
5100 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
5101
5102 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
5103 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
5104
5105 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
5106 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
5107 when reusing an existing buffer.
5108 [Bodo Moeller]
5109
5110 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
5111 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
5112 [Steve Henson]
5113
5114 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
5115 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
5116 [Ben Laurie]
5117
5118 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
5119 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
5120 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
5121 has the same effect.
5122 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
5123
5124 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
5125 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
5126 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
5127 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
5128 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
5129 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
5130 exception.
5131
5132 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
5133 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
5134 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
5135 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
5136
5137 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
5138 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
5139 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
5140 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
5141
5142 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
5143 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
5144 won't work.
5145
5146 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
5147 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
5148 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
5149 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
5150 default), and then completely removed.
5151 [Richard Levitte]
5152
5153 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
5154 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
5155 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
5156 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
5157 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
5158 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
5159 particular extension is supported.
5160 [Steve Henson]
5161
5162 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
5163 to retain compatibility with existing code.
5164 [Steve Henson]
5165
5166 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
5167 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
5168 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
5169 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
5170 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
5171 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
5172 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
5173 requires the destination to be valid.
5174
5175 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
5176 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
5177 [Steve Henson]
5178
5179 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
5180 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
5181 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
5182 [Bodo Moeller]
5183
5184 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
5185 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
5186
5187 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
5188 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
5189 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
5190 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
5191 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
5192 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
5193 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
5194 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
5195 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
5196 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
5197 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
5198 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
5199 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
5200 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
5201 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
5202 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
5203 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
5204 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
5205 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
5206 the new code.
5207 [Geoff Thorpe]
5208
5209 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
5210 [Steve Henson]
5211
5212 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
5213 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
5214 become part of libeay.num as well.
5215 [Richard Levitte]
5216
5217 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
5218 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
5219 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
5220 false once a handshake has been completed.
5221 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
5222 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
5223 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
5224 client has followed the request.)
5225 [Bodo Moeller]
5226
5227 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
5228 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
5229 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
5230 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
5231
5232 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
5233 more bits available for options that should not be part of
5234 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
5235 [Bodo Moeller]
5236
5237 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
5238 [Steve Henson]
5239
5240 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
5241 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
5242 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
5243 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5244
5245 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
5246 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
5247 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5248
5249 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
5250 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
5251 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
5252 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
5253 [Geoff Thorpe]
5254
5255 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
5256 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
5257 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
5258 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
5259 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
5260 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
5261 [Geoff Thorpe]
5262
5263 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
5264 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
5265 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
5266 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
5267 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
5268 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
5269 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
5270 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
5271 [Geoff Thorpe]
5272
5273 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
5274 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
5275 [Geoff Thorpe]
5276
5277 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
5278 [Ben Laurie]
5279
5280 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
5281 md_data void pointer.
5282 [Ben Laurie]
5283
5284 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
5285 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
5286 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
5287 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
5288 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
5289 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
5290 [Ben Laurie]
5291
5292 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
5293 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
5294 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
5295 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
5296 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
5297 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
5298 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
5299 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
5300 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
5301 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
5302 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
5303 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
5304 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
5305 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
5306 rather than letting it slide.
5307
5308 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
5309 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
5310 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
5311 [Geoff Thorpe]
5312
5313 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
5314 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
5315 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
5316 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
5317 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
5318 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
5319 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
5320 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
5321 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
5322 [Geoff Thorpe]
5323
5324 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
5325 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
5326 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
5327 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
5328 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5329
5330 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5331 [Geoff Thorpe]
5332
5333 *) Add EVP test program.
5334 [Ben Laurie]
5335
5336 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5337 [Ben Laurie]
5338
5339 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5340 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5341 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5342 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5343 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5344 [Steve Henson]
5345
5346 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5347 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5348 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5349 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5350 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5351 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5352 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5353
5354 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5355 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5356 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5357 Usage example:
5358
5359 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5360
5361 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5362 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5363 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5364 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5365 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5366
5367 [Ben Laurie]
5368
5369 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5370 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5371 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5372 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5373 anyway): E.g.,
5374
5375 des_key_schedule ks;
5376
5377 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5378 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5379
5380 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5381 [Ben Laurie]
5382
5383 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5384 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5385 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5386 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5387 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5388 functions prevents this.
5389 [Steve Henson]
5390
5391 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5392 [Ben Laurie]
5393
5394 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5395 correct _ecb suffix.
5396 [Ben Laurie]
5397
5398 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5399 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5400 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5401 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5402 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5403 [Steve Henson]
5404
5405 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5406 [Richard Levitte]
5407
5408 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5409 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5410 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5411 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5412
5413 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5414 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5415
5416 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5417 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5418 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5419 via Richard Levitte]
5420
5421 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5422 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5423 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5424 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5425 [Geoff Thorpe]
5426
5427 *) Speed up EVP routines.

5443 [Ben Laurie]
5444
5445 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5446 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5447
5448 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5449 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5450 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5451 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5452 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5453 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5454 [Steve Henson]
5455
5456 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5457 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5458 [Richard Levitte]
5459
5460 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5461 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5462 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5463 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5464
5465 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5466 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5467 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5468 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5469 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5470 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5471 callback.
5472 [Richard Levitte]
5473
5474 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5475 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5476 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5477 and interrupts/cancellations.
5478 [Richard Levitte]
5479
5480 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5481 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5482 [Steve Henson]
5483
5484 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5485 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5486 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5487
5488 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5489 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5490 kind of callback.
5491 [Richard Levitte]
5492
5493 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5494 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5495 than this minimum value is recommended.
5496 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5497
5498 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5499 that are easily reachable.
5500 [Richard Levitte]
5501
5502 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5503 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5504
5505 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5506
5507 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5508 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5509 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5510 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5511 [Steve Henson]
5512
5513 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5514 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5515 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5516 [Steve Henson]
5517
5518 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5519 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5520 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5521 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5522 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5523 internally such as S/MIME.
5524
5525 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5526 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5527 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5528
5529 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5530 applications.
5531 [Steve Henson]
5532
5533 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5534 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5535 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5536 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5537
5538 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5539
5540 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5541
5542 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5543 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5544 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5545 handling.
5546 [Steve Henson]
5547
5548 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5549 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5550 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5551 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5552 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5553 a window system and the like.
5554 [Richard Levitte]
5555
5556 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5557 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5558 [Geoff]
5559
5560 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5561 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5562 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5563 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5564 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5565 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5566 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5567 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5568 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5569 ENGINE structure.
5570 [Geoff]
5571
5572 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5573 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5574 tag cache.
5575 [Steve Henson]
5576
5577 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5578 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5579 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5580 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5581 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5582 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5583 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5584 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5585 [Geoff]
5586
5587 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5588 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5589 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5590 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5591 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5592 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5593 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5594 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5595 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5596 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5597 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5598 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5599 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5600 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5601 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5602 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5603 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5604 [Geoff]
5605
5606 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5607 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5608 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5609 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5610 internal engine_int.h header.
5611 [Geoff]
5612
5613 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5614 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5615 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5616 modify their own ones).
5617 [Geoff]
5618
5619 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5620 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5621 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5622 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5623 later on via ctrl() commands.
5624 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5625 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5626 structural references.
5627 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5628 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5629 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5630 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5631 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5632 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5633 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5634 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5635 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5636 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5637 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5638 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5639 [Geoff]
5640
5641 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5642 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5643 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5644 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5645 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5646 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5647 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5648 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5649 [Bodo Moeller]
5650
5651 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5652 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5653 [Steve Henson]
5654
5655 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5656 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5657 [Steve Henson]
5658
5659 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5660 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5661 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5662 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5663 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5664 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5665 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5666 [Steve Henson]
5667
5668 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5669 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5670 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5671 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5672 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5673
5674 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5675 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5676 generator).
5677 [Bodo Moeller]
5678
5679 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5680
5681 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5682 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5683 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5684
5685 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5686 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5687
5688 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5689 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5690 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5691
5692 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5693 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5694
5695 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5696 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5697
5698 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5699
5700 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5701 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5702 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5703 [Bodo Moeller]
5704
5705 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5706 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5707 [Richard Levitte]
5708
5709 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5710 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5711 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5712 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5713 is 40 of more characters long.
5714 [Steve Henson]
5715
5716 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5717 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5718 pointers.
5719 [Steve Henson]
5720
5721 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5722 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5723 [Bodo Moeller]
5724
5725 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5726 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5727 might.
5728 [Steve Henson]
5729
5730 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5731
5732 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5733 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5734
5735 ASN1 error codes
5736 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5737 ...
5738 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5739 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5740 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5741 ...
5742 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5743 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5744
5745 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5746 [Bodo Moeller]
5747
5748 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5749 suffices.
5750 [Bodo Moeller]
5751
5752 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5753 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5754 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5755 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5756 and
5757 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5758
5759 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5760 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5761
5762 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5763 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5764 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5765 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5766 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5767 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5768
5769 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5770 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5771
5772 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5773 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5774
5775 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5776 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5777
5778 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5779 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5780 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5781 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5782
5783 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5784 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5785
5786 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5787 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5788
5789 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5790 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5791 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5792 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5793 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5794 [Richard Levitte]
5795
5796 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5797 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5798 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5799 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5800 [Steve Henson]
5801
5802 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5803 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5804 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5805 trust settings.
5806 [Steve Henson]
5807
5808 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5809 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5810 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5811 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5812 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5813 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5814 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5815 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5816 ocsp utility.
5817 [Steve Henson]
5818
5819 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5820 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5821 [Steve Henson]
5822
5823 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5824 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5825 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5826 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5827 [Steve Henson]
5828
5829 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5830 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5831 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5832 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5833 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5834 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5835 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5836 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5837 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5838 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5839 [Steve Henson]
5840
5841 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5842 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5843 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5844 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5845 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5846 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5847 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5848 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5849
5850 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5851 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5852 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5853 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5854 [Richard Levitte]
5855
5856 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5857 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5858 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5859 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5860 opensslconf.h.
5861 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5862 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5863 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5864 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5865 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5866 what is available.
5867 [Richard Levitte]
5868
5869 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5870 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5871 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5872 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5873 auto incremented.
5874 [Steve Henson]
5875
5876 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5877 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5878 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5879 [Steve Henson]
5880
5881 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5882 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5883 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5884 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5885 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5886 [Steve Henson]
5887
5888 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5889 [Steve Henson]
5890
5891 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5892 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5893 option to ocsp utility.
5894 [Steve Henson]
5895
5896 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5897 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5898 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5899 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5900 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5901 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5902 the request is nonce-less.
5903 [Steve Henson]
5904
5905 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5906 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5907 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5908 [Bodo Moeller]
5909
5910 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5911 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5912 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5913 [Steve Henson]
5914
5915 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5916 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5917 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5918 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5919 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5920 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5921
5922 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5923 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5924 appear to exist.
5925 [Steve Henson]
5926
5927 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5928 additional certificates supplied.
5929 [Steve Henson]
5930
5931 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5932 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5933 signature against.
5934 [Richard Levitte]
5935
5936 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5937 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5938 AES OIDs.
5939
5940 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5941 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5942 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5943 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5944 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5945 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5946 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5947 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5948 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5949
5950 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5951 request to response.
5952 [Steve Henson]
5953
5954 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5955 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5956 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5957 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5958 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5959 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5960 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5961 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5962 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5963 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5964 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5965 [Steve Henson]
5966
5967 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5968 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5969 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5970 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5971 [Steve Henson]
5972
5973 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5974 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5975
5976 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5977 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5978 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5979 [Steve Henson]
5980
5981 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5982 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5983 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5984 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5985 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5986
5987 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5988 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5989 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5990 [Steve Henson]
5991
5992 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5993 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5994 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5995 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5996 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5997 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5998 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5999 <support@securenetterm.com>]
6000
6001 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
6002 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
6003 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
6004 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
6005 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
6006 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
6007 [Steve Henson]
6008
6009 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
6010 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
6011 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
6012 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
6013 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
6014 printout format cleaned up.
6015 [Steve Henson]
6016
6017 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
6018 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
6019 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
6020 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
6021 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
6022 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
6023 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
6024 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
6025 [Steve Henson]
6026
6027 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
6028 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
6029 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
6030 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
6031 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
6032 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
6033 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
6034 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
6035 [Steve Henson]
6036
6037 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
6038 extensions from a separate configuration file.
6039 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
6040 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
6041 section to use.
6042 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6043
6044 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
6045 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
6046 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
6047 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
6048 [Steve Henson]
6049
6050 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
6051 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
6052 the given serial number (according to the index file).
6053 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
6054 in the index file.
6055 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
6056
6057 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
6058 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
6059 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
6060 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6061
6062 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
6063 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
6064
6065 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
6066 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
6067 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
6068 [Steve Henson]
6069
6070 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
6071 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
6072 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
6073 [Bodo Moeller]
6074
6075 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
6076 file name and line number information in additional arguments
6077 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
6078 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
6079 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
6080 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
6081 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
6082 functions are provided:
6083
6084 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
6085 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
6086 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
6087 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
6088
6089 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
6090 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
6091 extended allocation function is enabled.
6092 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
6093 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
6094 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
6095
6096 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
6097 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
6098 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
6099 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
6100 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
6101 [Geoff Thorpe]
6102
6103 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
6104 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
6105 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
6106 be queried.
6107 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
6108 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
6109 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
6110 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6111
6112 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
6113 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
6114 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
6115 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
6116 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
6117 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
6118 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
6119 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
6120 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
6121 [Richard Levitte]
6122
6123 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
6124 provide utility functions which an application needing
6125 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
6126 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
6127 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
6128
6129 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
6130 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
6131 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
6132 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
6133 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
6134 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
6135 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
6136 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
6137 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
6138
6139 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
6140 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
6141 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
6142 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
6143 [Steve Henson]
6144
6145 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
6146 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
6147 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
6148 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
6149 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
6150 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
6151 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
6152 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
6153 will be added elsewhere.
6154 [Steve Henson]
6155
6156 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
6157 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
6158 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
6159 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
6160 [Steve Henson]
6161
6162 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
6163 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
6164 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
6165 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
6166 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
6167 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
6168 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
6169 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
6170 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
6171 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
6172 to produce the required SET OF.
6173 [Steve Henson]
6174
6175 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
6176 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
6177 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
6178 [Richard Levitte]
6179
6180 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
6181 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
6182 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
6183 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
6184 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
6185 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
6186 [Steve Henson]
6187
6188 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
6189 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
6190 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
6191 [Steve Henson]
6192
6193 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
6194 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
6195 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
6196 [Richard Levitte]
6197
6198 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
6199 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
6200 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
6201 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
6202 code will still work when these eventually go away.
6203 [Steve Henson]
6204
6205 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
6206 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
6207 [Steve Henson]
6208
6209 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
6210 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
6211 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
6212 certifcates and CRLs.
6213 [Steve Henson]
6214
6215 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
6216 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
6217 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
6218 [Steve Henson]
6219
6220 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
6221 entries for variables.
6222 [Steve Henson]
6223
6224 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
6225 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
6226 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
6227 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
6228 [Bodo Moeller]
6229
6230 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
6231 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
6232 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
6233 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
6234 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
6235 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
6236 [Bodo Moeller]
6237
6238 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
6239 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
6240
6241 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
6242 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
6243 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
6244 [Steve Henson]
6245
6246 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
6247 print routines.
6248 [Steve Henson]
6249
6250 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
6251 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
6252 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
6253 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
6254 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
6255 order did not reflect the encoded order.
6256 [Steve Henson]
6257
6258 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
6259 [Steve Henson]
6260
6261 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
6262 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
6263 for now but they will eventually go away.
6264 [Steve Henson]
6265
6266 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
6267 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
6268 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
6269 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
6270 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
6271 has also been converted to the new form.
6272 [Steve Henson]
6273
6274 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
6275 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
6276 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
6277 for negative moduli.
6278 [Bodo Moeller]
6279
6280 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
6281 of not touching the result's sign bit.
6282 [Bodo Moeller]
6283
6284 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
6285 set.
6286 [Bodo Moeller]
6287
6288 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
6289 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
6290 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
6291 type-specific callbacks.
6292 [Geoff Thorpe]
6293
6294 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
6295 RFC 2712.
6296 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
6297 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
6298
6299 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
6300 in sections depending on the subject.
6301 [Richard Levitte]
6302
6303 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
6304 Windows.
6305 [Richard Levitte]
6306
6307 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
6308 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
6309 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
6310 be handled deterministically).
6311 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6312
6313 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
6314 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
6315 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
6316 [Bodo Moeller]
6317
6318 *) New function BN_kronecker.
6319 [Bodo Moeller]
6320
6321 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
6322 positive unless both parameters are zero.
6323 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
6324 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
6325 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
6326 [Bodo Moeller]
6327
6328 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6329 sign of the number in question.
6330
6331 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6332
6333 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6334 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6335 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6336 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6337 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6338 [Bodo Moeller]
6339
6340 *) New function BN_swap.
6341 [Bodo Moeller]
6342
6343 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6344 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6345 results on negative inputs.
6346 [Bodo Moeller]
6347
6348 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6349 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6350 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6351 [Bodo Moeller]
6352
6353 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6354 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6355 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6356 and add new functions:
6357
6358 BN_nnmod
6359 BN_mod_sqr
6360 BN_mod_add
6361 BN_mod_add_quick
6362 BN_mod_sub
6363 BN_mod_sub_quick
6364 BN_mod_lshift1
6365 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6366 BN_mod_lshift
6367 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6368
6369 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6370
6371 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6372 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6373
6374 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6375 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6376 be reduced modulo m.
6377 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6378
6379 #if 0
6380 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6381 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6382 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6383
6384 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6385 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6386 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6387 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6388 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6389 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6390 differing sizes.
6391 [Richard Levitte]
6392 #endif
6393
6394 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6395 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6396 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6397 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6398 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6399
6400 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6401 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6402 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6403 cause any problems.
6404 [Bodo Moeller]
6405
6406 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6407 [Richard Levitte]
6408
6409 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6410 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6411 [Richard Levitte]
6412
6413 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6414 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6415 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6416 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6417 time)
6418 [Richard Levitte]
6419
6420 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6421 [Richard Levitte]
6422
6423 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6424 [Richard Levitte]
6425
6426 *) Add the following functions:
6427
6428 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6429 ENGINE_load_chil()
6430 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6431 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6432 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6433
6434 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6435 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6436 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6437 libraries unless it's really needed.
6438
6439 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6440 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6441 declarations (they differed!).
6442 [Richard Levitte]
6443
6444 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6445 [Richard Levitte]
6446
6447 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6448 [Richard Levitte]
6449
6450 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6451 [Bodo Moeller]
6452
6453 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6454 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6455 [Richard Levitte]
6456
6457 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6458 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6459 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6460
6461 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6462 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6463 [Richard Levitte]
6464
6465 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6466 [Richard Levitte]
6467
6468 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6469 [Richard Levitte]
6470
6471 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6472 [Ben Laurie]
6473
6474 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6475 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6476 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6477
6478 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6479 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6480 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6481 different shared library filenames on each system.
6482 [Geoff Thorpe]
6483
6484 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6485 [Richard Levitte]
6486
6487 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6488 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6489 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6490 of two sections.
6491 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6492
6493 *) NCONF changes.
6494 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6495 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6496 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6497 binary backward compatibility.
6498 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6499 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6500 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6501 LDAP server.
6502 [Richard Levitte]
6503
6504 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6505 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6506 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6507 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6508 this case.
6509 [Steve Henson]
6510
6511 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6512 [Ben Laurie]
6513
6514 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6515 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6516 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6517 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6518 set.
6519 [Steve Henson]
6520
6521 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6522 [Richard Levitte]
6523
6524 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6525
6526 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6527 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6528 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6529
6530 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6531
6532 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6533
6534 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6535 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6536 [Steve Henson]
6537
6538 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6539
6540 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6541
6542 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6543 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6544
6545 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6546 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6547
6548 [Steve Henson]
6549
6550 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6551 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6552 specifications.
6553 [Steve Henson]
6554
6555 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6556 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6557 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6558 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6559
6560 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6561 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6562 [Richard Levitte]
6563
6564 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6565
6566 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6567 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6568 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6569 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6570 [Bodo Moeller]
6571
6572 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6573 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6574 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6575 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6576 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6577
6578 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6579 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6580 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6581 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6582 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6583 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6584 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6585 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6586 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6587 [Bodo Moeller]
6588
6589 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6590
6591 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6592 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6593 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6594 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6595 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6596
6597 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6598 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6599 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6600
6601 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6602
6603 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6604 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6605 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6606 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6607 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6608 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6609 [Geoff Thorpe]
6610
6611 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6612 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6613 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6614 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6615 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6616 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6617
6618 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6619 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6620 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6621
6622 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6623 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6624 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6625 EVP_cleanup().
6626 [Richard Levitte]
6627
6628 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6629 being properly terminated.
6630 [Richard Levitte]
6631
6632 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6633 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6634 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6635 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6636
6637 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6638 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6639 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6640 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6641 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6642 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6643 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6644 change.
6645 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6646
6647 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6648 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6649 [Bodo Moeller]
6650
6651 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6652 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6653 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6654 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6655 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6656 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6657 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6658 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6659
6660 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6661 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6662 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6663 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6664 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6665
6666 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6667 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6668 [Steve Henson]
6669
6670 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6671
6672 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6673 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6674 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6675
6676 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6677
6678 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6679 and get fix the header length calculation.
6680 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6681 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6682 Steve Henson]
6683
6684 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6685 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6686 assertions could call abort()).
6687 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6688
6689 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6690
6691 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6692 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6693 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6694 supplied buffer.
6695 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6696
6697 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6698 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6699 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6700 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6701
6702 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6703 [Nils Larsch]
6704
6705 *) New option
6706 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6707 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6708 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6709
6710 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6711 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6712 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6713 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6714 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6715 applications.
6716 [Bodo Moeller]
6717
6718 *) Changes in security patch:
6719
6720 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6721 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6722 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6723 F30602-01-2-0537.
6724
6725 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6726 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6727 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6728 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6729 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6730
6731 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6732 happen in practice.
6733 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6734
6735 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6736 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6737 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6738
6739 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6740 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6741 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6742
6743 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6744 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6745 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6746
6747 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6748
6749 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6750 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6751 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6752
6753 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6754 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6755
6756 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6757 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6758 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6759 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6760 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6761 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6762 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6763
6764 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6765 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6766 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6767 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6768 [Bodo Moeller]
6769
6770 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6771 [Bodo Moeller]
6772
6773 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6774 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6775 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6776 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6777 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6778 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6779
6780 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6781 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6782 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6783 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6784 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6785 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6786
6787 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6788 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6789 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6790 BN_generate_prime().)
6791
6792 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6793 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6794 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6795 better.
6796 [Bodo Moeller]
6797
6798 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6799 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6800 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6801
6802 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6803 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6804 when using non-blocking I/O.
6805 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6806
6807 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6808 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6809
6810 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6811 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6812 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6813
6814 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6815 configuration for the versions before that.
6816 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6817
6818 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6819 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6820 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6821 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6822 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6823
6824 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6825 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6826 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6827 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6828
6829 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6830 value is 0.
6831 [Richard Levitte]
6832
6833 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6834 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6835 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6836
6837 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6838 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6839
6840 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6841 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6842 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6843 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6844 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6845 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6846 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6847 session cache.
6848
6849 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6850 using a local variable.
6851 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6852
6853 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6854 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6855 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6856
6857 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6858 [Richard Levitte]
6859
6860 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6861 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6862
6863 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6864 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6865 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6866
6867 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6868
6869 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6870 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6871 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6872 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6873 [Bodo Moeller]
6874
6875 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6876 present.
6877 [Steve Henson]
6878
6879 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6880 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6881 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6882 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6883 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6884
6885 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6886 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6887 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6888
6889 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6890 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6891 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6892
6893 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6894 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6895 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6896 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6897
6898 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6899 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6900 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6901 modules).
6902 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6903
6904 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6905 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6906 from 0.9.7.
6907 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6908
6909 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6910 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6911 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6912 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6913
6914 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6915 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6916 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6917 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6918
6919 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6920 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6921
6922 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6923 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6924 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6925 [Bodo Moeller]
6926
6927 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6928 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6929 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6930 become invalid.
6931 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6932
6933 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6934 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6935 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6936 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6937 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6938 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6939 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6940 [Bodo Moeller]
6941
6942 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6943 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6944 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6945 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6946
6947 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6948 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6949 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6950 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6951 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6952 the client will at least see that alert.
6953 [Bodo Moeller]
6954
6955 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6956 correctly.
6957 [Bodo Moeller]
6958
6959 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6960 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6961 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6962
6963 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6964 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6965 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6966 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6967 HelloRequest.
6968
6969 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6970 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6971 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6972
6973 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6974 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6975 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6976 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6977 may leak via logfiles.)
6978
6979 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6980 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6981 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6982 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6983 the legal range.
6984 [Bodo Moeller]
6985
6986 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6987 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6988 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6989
6990 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6991 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6992 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6993 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6994 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6995 [Bodo Moeller]
6996
6997 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6998 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6999
7000 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
7001 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
7002 followed by modular reduction.
7003 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
7004
7005 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
7006 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
7007 [Bodo Moeller]
7008
7009 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
7010 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
7011 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
7012 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
7013 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7014
7015 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
7016 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7017
7018 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
7019 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
7020 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7021
7022 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
7023 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
7024 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
7025 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
7026 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
7027 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
7028 automatically.
7029 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
7030
7031 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
7032 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
7033 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
7034 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
7035 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
7036
7037 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
7038 [Andy Polyakov]
7039
7040 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
7041 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
7042 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
7043 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
7044 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
7045 to allow the necessary settings.
7046 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7047
7048 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
7049 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
7050 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
7051 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
7052 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7053
7054 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
7055 dh->length and always used
7056
7057 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
7058
7059 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
7060 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
7061 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
7062 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
7063 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
7064 dh->length.
7065
7066 So switch back to
7067
7068 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
7069
7070 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
7071 otherwise.
7072 [Bodo Moeller]
7073
7074 *) In
7075
7076 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
7077 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
7078 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
7079 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
7080
7081 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
7082 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
7083 always reject numbers >= n.
7084 [Bodo Moeller]
7085
7086 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
7087 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
7088 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
7089 variable) is not atomic.
7090 [Bodo Moeller]
7091
7092 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
7093 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
7094 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
7095 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
7096
7097 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
7098 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
7099
7100 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
7101 little-endian MIPS.
7102 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
7103
7104 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
7105 [Richard Levitte]
7106
7107 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
7108
7109 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
7110 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
7111 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
7112 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
7113 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
7114 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
7115 to traverse all of 'state'.
7116
7117 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
7118 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
7119 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
7120
7121 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
7122 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
7123
7124 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
7125 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
7126 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
7127 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
7128 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
7129 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
7130 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
7131 further strengthens the PRNG.
7132 [Bodo Moeller]
7133
7134 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
7135 [Andy Polyakov]
7136
7137 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
7138 an error message in this case.
7139 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7140
7141 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
7142 [Steve Henson]
7143
7144 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
7145 positive and less than q.
7146 [Bodo Moeller]
7147
7148 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
7149 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
7150 that itself.
7151 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
7152
7153 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
7154 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
7155 [Bodo Moeller]
7156
7157 *) Fix OAEP check.
7158 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
7159
7160 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
7161 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
7162 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
7163 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
7164 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
7165 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
7166 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
7167 paper.)
7168
7169 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
7170 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
7171 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
7172 detect the supposedly ignored error.
7173
7174 Both problems are now fixed.
7175 [Bodo Moeller]
7176
7177 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
7178 (previously it was 1024).
7179 [Bodo Moeller]
7180
7181 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
7182 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
7183 [Steve Henson]
7184
7185 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
7186 [Steve Henson]
7187
7188 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
7189 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
7190 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
7191 [Steve Henson]
7192
7193 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
7194 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
7195 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
7196 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
7197 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
7198 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
7199 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
7200 environment variables.
7201
7202 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
7203 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
7204 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
7205 [Bodo Moeller]
7206
7207 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
7208 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
7209 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
7210 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
7211 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
7212 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
7213 [Bodo Moeller]
7214
7215 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
7216 versions of 'test'.
7217 [Bodo Moeller]
7218
7219 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
7220
7221 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
7222 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
7223
7224 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
7225 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
7226 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
7227 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
7228 CygWin.
7229 [Richard Levitte]
7230
7231 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
7232 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
7233 amount of data available.
7234 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
7235 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7236
7237 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
7238 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
7239 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
7240 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
7241 [Bodo Moeller]
7242
7243 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
7244 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
7245 and UnixWare.
7246 [Richard Levitte]
7247
7248 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
7249 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
7250 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
7251 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).

7254 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
7255 [Andy Polyakov]
7256
7257 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
7258 [Richard Levitte]
7259
7260 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
7261 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
7262 [Steve Henson]
7263 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7264
7265 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
7266 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
7267 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
7268 (but broken) behaviour.
7269 [Steve Henson]
7270
7271 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
7272 it when found.
7273 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
7274
7275 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
7276 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
7277 [Bodo Moeller]
7278
7279 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
7280 did not exist.
7281 [Bodo Moeller]
7282
7283 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
7284 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
7285
7286 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
7287 [Richard Levitte]
7288
7289 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
7290 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
7291 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
7292
7293 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
7294 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
7295 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
7296 [Steve Henson]
7297
7298 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
7299 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
7300 [Ulf Moeller]
7301
7302 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
7303 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
7304
7305 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
7306
7307 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
7308
7309 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
7310 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
7311 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
7312 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
7313 [Bodo Moeller]
7314
7315 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
7316 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7317
7318 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
7319 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
7320 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7321
7322 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
7323 was empty.
7324 [Steve Henson]
7325 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7326
7327 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
7328 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7329 but the code is actually correct.
7330 [Steve Henson]
7331
7332 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7333 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7334 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7335 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7336 and leaves the highest bit random.
7337 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7338
7339 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7340 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7341 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7342 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7343 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7344 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7345 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7346 [Bodo Moeller]
7347
7348 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7349 [Ulf Moeller]
7350
7351 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7352 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7353 [Steve Henson]
7354
7355 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7356 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7357 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7358 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7359 headers.
7360 [Richard Levitte]
7361
7362 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7363 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7364 and break the signature.
7365 [Steve Henson]
7366 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7367
7368 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7369 DH ciphersuites.
7370 [Steve Henson]
7371
7372 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7373 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7374 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7375 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7376 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7377 [Bodo Moeller]
7378
7379 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7380 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7381
7382 *) ./config script fixes.
7383 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7384
7385 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7386 [Bodo Moeller]
7387
7388 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7389 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7390 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7391 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7392 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7393
7394 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7395 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7396 [Bodo Moeller]
7397
7398 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7399 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7400 [Steve Henson]
7401
7402 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7403 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7404 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7405 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7406
7407 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7408 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7409
7410 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7411 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7412 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7413 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7414 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7415
7416 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7417 [Bodo Moeller]
7418
7419 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7420 [Ulf Möller]
7421
7422 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7423 [Ulf Möller]
7424
7425 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7426 [Bodo Moeller]
7427
7428 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7429 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7430 [Bodo Moeller]
7431
7432 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7433 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7434 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7435 result of the server certificate verification.)
7436 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7437
7438 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7439 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7440 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7441 [Bodo Moeller]
7442
7443 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7444 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7445 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7446 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7447 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7448 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7449 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7450 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7451 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7452 [Bodo Moeller]
7453
7454 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7455 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7456 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7457 happening the other way round.
7458 [Geoff Thorpe]
7459
7460 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7461 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7462 [Bodo Moeller]
7463
7464 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7465 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7466 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7467 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7468 [Richard Levitte]
7469
7470 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7471 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7472
7473 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7474
7475 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7476 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7477 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7478 that.
7479
7480 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7481
7482 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7483
7484 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7485 static ones.
7486 [Richard Levitte]
7487
7488 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7489
7490 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7491 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7492 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7493 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7494 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7495
7496 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7497 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7498 matter what.
7499 [Richard Levitte]
7500
7501 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7502 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7503
7504 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7505
7506 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7507 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7508 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7509 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7510 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7511 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7512 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7513 by the Finished messages.
7514 [Bodo Moeller]
7515
7516 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7517 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7518
7519 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7520 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7521 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7522 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7523 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7524 appropriately.
7525 [Steve Henson]
7526
7527 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7528 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7529 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7530 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7531 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7532 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7533 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7534 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7535 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7536 together.
7537 [Steve Henson]
7538
7539 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7540 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7541 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7542 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7543
7544 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7545 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7546 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7547 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7548 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7549 the answer.
7550
7551 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7552 been tested well enough.
7553 [Richard Levitte]
7554
7555 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7556 it can return incorrect results.
7557 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7558 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7559 [Bodo Moeller]
7560
7561 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7562 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7563 include zero length content when signing messages.
7564 [Steve Henson]
7565
7566 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7567 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7568 [Bodo Möller]
7569
7570 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7571 [Richard Levitte]
7572
7573 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7574 wrong sign.
7575 [Ulf Möller]
7576
7577 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7578 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7579 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7580 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7581 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7582 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7583 [Richard Levitte]
7584
7585 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7586 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7587
7588 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7589 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7590
7591 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7592 random number < q in the DSA library.
7593 [Ulf Möller]
7594
7595 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7596 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7597 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7598 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7599 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7600 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7601 just makes things more complicated.)
7602 [Bodo Moeller]
7603
7604 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7605 from EGD.
7606 [Ben Laurie]
7607
7608 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7609 work better on such systems.
7610 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7611
7612 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7613 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7614 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7615 [Steve Henson]
7616
7617 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7618 if there was more than one signature.
7619 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7620
7621 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7622 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7623 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7624 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7625 [Richard Levitte]
7626
7627 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7628 rather than always using the current time.
7629 [Steve Henson]
7630
7631 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7632 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7633 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7634 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7635 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7636 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7637
7638 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7639 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7640
7641 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7642
7643 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7644 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7645 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7646 the same hash value.
7647
7648 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7649 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7650 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7651 with X509_STORE internally.
7652
7653 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7654 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7655
7656 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7657 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7658 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7659 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7660 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7661 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7662 entirely (maybe later...).
7663
7664 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7665
7666 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7667 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7668 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7669 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7670 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7671 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7672 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7673 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7674
7675 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7676 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7677
7678 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7679 to customise the verify behaviour.
7680 [Steve Henson]
7681
7682 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7683 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7684 [Steve Henson]
7685
7686 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7687 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7688 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7689 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7690 request is improperly encoded.
7691 [Steve Henson]
7692
7693 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7694 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7695 BIO_write(b, ...).
7696
7697 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7698 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7699
7700 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7701 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7702 words set to zero.)
7703 [Bodo Moeller]
7704
7705 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7706 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7707 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7708 [Bodo Moeller]
7709
7710 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7711 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7712 BIO/fp routines also added.
7713 [Steve Henson]
7714
7715 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7716 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7717
7718 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7719 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7720 demos/state_machine.
7721 [Ben Laurie]
7722
7723 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7724 generation and verification.
7725 [Steve Henson]
7726
7727 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7728 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7729 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7730 encode and decode it manually.
7731 [Steve Henson]
7732
7733 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7734 compile under VC++.
7735 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7736
7737 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7738 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7739 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7740 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7741
7742 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7743 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7744 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7745 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7746 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7747 [Steve Henson]
7748
7749 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7750 [Richard Levitte]
7751
7752 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7753 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7754 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7755
7756 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7757 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7758 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7759 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7760 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7761 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7762 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7763 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7764
7765 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7766 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7767
7768 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7769
7770 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7771 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7772 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7773
7774 [Richard Levitte]
7775
7776 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7777 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7778 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7779 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7780 [Richard Levitte]
7781
7782 *) MD4 implemented.
7783 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7784
7785 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7786 [Richard Levitte]
7787
7788 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7789 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7790 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7791 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7792 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7793 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7794 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7795 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7796 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7797 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7798 short or long names are found.
7799 [Steve Henson]
7800
7801 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7802 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7803
7804 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7805 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7806 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7807 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7808
7809 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7810 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7811 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7812 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7813 [Bodo Moeller]
7814
7815 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7816 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7817 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7818 [Richard Levitte]
7819
7820 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7821 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7822 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7823 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7824 to allow the various flags to be set.
7825 [Steve Henson]
7826
7827 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7828 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7829 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7830 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7831 dates to be checked.
7832 [Steve Henson]
7833
7834 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7835 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7836 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7837 [Steve Henson]
7838
7839 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7840 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7841 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7842 [Steve Henson]
7843
7844 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7845 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7846 [Bodo Moeller]
7847
7848 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7849 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7850 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7851 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7852 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7853 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7854 [Richard Levitte]
7855
7856 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7857 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7858 Random Numbers.
7859 [Ulf Möller]
7860
7861 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7862 DSA key.
7863 [Steve Henson]
7864
7865 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7866 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7867 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7868 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7869 form signing output easier to verify.
7870 [Steve Henson]
7871
7872 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7873 [Steve Henson]
7874
7875 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7876 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7877 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7878 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7879 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7880 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7881 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7882 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7883 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7884 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7885 [Steve Henson]
7886
7887 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7888
7889 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7890 the syntax given in objects.README.
7891 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7892 obj_mac.h.
7893 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7894 obj_mac.h.
7895
7896 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7897 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7898 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7899 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7900 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7901 consistent name changes.
7902 [Richard Levitte]
7903
7904 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7905 [Bodo Moeller]
7906
7907 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7908 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7909 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7910 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7911 [Richard Levitte]
7912
7913 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7914 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7915 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7916 of safestack.h .
7917 [Steve Henson]
7918
7919 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7920 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7921 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7922 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7923 [Steve Henson]
7924
7925 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7926 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7927 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7928 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7929 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7930 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7931 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7932 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7933 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7934 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7935 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7936 [Steve Henson]
7937
7938 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7939 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7940 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7941 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7942 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7943 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7944 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7945 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7946 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7947 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7948 [Steve Henson]
7949
7950 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7951 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7952 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7953 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7954
7955 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7956 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7957 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7958 omit any duplicate addresses.
7959 [Steve Henson]
7960
7961 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7962 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7963 [Bodo Moeller]
7964
7965 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7966 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7967 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7968 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7969 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7970 [Bodo Moeller]
7971
7972 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7973 software:
7974 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7975 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7976 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7977 Free => OPENSSL_free
7978 [Richard Levitte]
7979
7980 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7981 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7982 [Bodo Moeller]
7983
7984 *) CygWin32 support.
7985 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7986
7987 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7988 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7989 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7990 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7991 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7992 approach.
7993 [Geoff Thorpe]
7994
7995 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7996 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7997 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7998 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7999 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
8000 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
8001 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
8002 [Geoff Thorpe]
8003
8004 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
8005 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
8006 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
8007 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
8008 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
8009 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
8010 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
8011 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
8012 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
8013 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
8014 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
8015 [Bodo Moeller]
8016
8017 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
8018 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
8019 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
8020 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
8021 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
8022
8023 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
8024 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
8025 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
8026 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
8027 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
8028
8029 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
8030 ciphers.
8031
8032 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
8033 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
8034 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
8035 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
8036
8037 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
8038
8039 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
8040 of macros.
8041
8042 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
8043 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
8044 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
8045 flags.
8046
8047 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
8048 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
8049 any installed hardware versions can.
8050 [Steve Henson]
8051
8052 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
8053 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
8054 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
8055 number.
8056 [Bodo Moeller]
8057
8058 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
8059 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
8060 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
8061 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
8062 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
8063
8064 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
8065 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
8066 [Steve Henson]
8067
8068 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
8069 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
8070 [Richard Levitte]
8071
8072 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
8073 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
8074 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
8075 features.
8076 [Steve Henson]
8077
8078 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
8079 [Ulf Möller]
8080
8081 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
8082 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
8083 but no ssl client purpose.
8084 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
8085
8086 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
8087 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
8088 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
8089 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
8090 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
8091 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
8092 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
8093 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
8094 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
8095 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
8096 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
8097 [Steve Henson]
8098
8099 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
8100 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
8101 be obtained from the error queue.
8102 [Bodo Moeller]
8103
8104 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
8105 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
8106 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
8107 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
8108 [Bodo Moeller]
8109
8110 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
8111 [Ulf Möller]
8112
8113 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
8114 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
8115 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
8116 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
8117 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
8118 [Geoff Thorpe]
8119
8120 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
8121 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
8122 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
8123 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
8124 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
8125 [Geoff Thorpe]
8126
8127 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
8128 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
8129 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
8130 may not be NULL.
8131 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
8132
8133 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
8134 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
8135 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
8136 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
8137 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
8138 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
8139 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
8140 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
8141 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
8142 or "the configuration storage API"...
8143
8144 The new configuration file reading functions are:
8145
8146 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
8147 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
8148
8149 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
8150
8151 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
8152
8153 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
8154 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
8155 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
8156 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
8157 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
8158 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
8159 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
8160
8161 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
8162 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
8163 [Richard Levitte]
8164
8165 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
8166 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
8167 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
8168 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
8169 [Bodo Moeller]
8170
8171 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
8172 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
8173 them in a portable way.
8174 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
8175
8176 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
8177
8178 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
8179
8180 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
8181 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
8182
8183 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
8184 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
8185 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
8186 <attili@amaxo.com>]
8187
8188 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
8189 was larger than the MD block size.
8190 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
8191
8192 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
8193 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
8194 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
8195 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
8196 components.
8197 [Steve Henson]
8198
8199 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
8200 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
8201 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
8202
8203 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
8204 discouraged.
8205 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
8206
8207 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
8208 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
8209 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
8210 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
8211 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
8212 Additional arguments are always ignored.
8213
8214 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
8215 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
8216
8217 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
8218 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
8219 [Bodo Moeller]
8220
8221 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
8222 [Bodo Moeller]
8223
8224 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
8225 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
8226 its own key.
8227 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
8228 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
8229 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
8230 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
8231 [Bodo Moeller]
8232
8233 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
8234 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
8235 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
8236 does not suppress any output.
8237 [Richard Levitte]
8238
8239 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
8240 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
8241 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
8242 with all the associated security issues.
8243
8244 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
8245 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
8246 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
8247 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
8248 use the value in the default purpose.
8249 [Steve Henson]
8250
8251 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
8252 and fix a memory leak.
8253 [Steve Henson]
8254
8255 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
8256 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
8257 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
8258 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
8259 [Bodo Moeller]
8260
8261 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
8262 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
8263 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
8264 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
8265 [Bodo Moeller]
8266
8267 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
8268 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
8269 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
8270 [Bodo Moeller]
8271
8272 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
8273 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
8274 [Bodo Moeller]
8275
8276 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
8277 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
8278 which was free.
8279 [Steve Henson]
8280
8281 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
8282 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
8283 [Bodo Moeller]
8284
8285 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
8286 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
8287 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
8288 [Bodo Moeller]
8289
8290 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
8291 number generation fails.
8292 [Bodo Moeller]
8293
8294 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
8295 [Bodo Moeller]
8296
8297 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
8298 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
8299
8300 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
8301 [Ulf Möller]
8302
8303 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
8304 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
8305
8306 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
8307 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
8308
8309 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
8310
8311 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
8312 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
8313 [Steve Henson]
8314
8315 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
8316 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
8317
8318 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
8319 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
8320 [Ulf Möller]
8321
8322 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
8323 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
8324 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
8325 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
8326 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
8327 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
8328
8329 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8330 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8331 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8332 for example.
8333 [Steve Henson]
8334
8335 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8336 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8337 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8338 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8339 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8340 counter, some don't.)
8341 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8342 counters or duplicate objects.
8343 [Steve Henson]
8344
8345 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8346 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8347 [Steve Henson]
8348
8349 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8350 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8351 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8352
8353 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8354 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8355 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8356 or -rand.
8357 [Ulf Möller]
8358
8359 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8360 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8361 [Steve Henson]
8362
8363 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8364 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8365 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8366 cipher list.
8367 [Steve Henson]
8368
8369 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8370 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8371 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8372 [Steve Henson]
8373
8374 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8375 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8376 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8377 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8378 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8379 should work without changes.
8380 [Richard Levitte]
8381
8382 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8383 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8384 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8385 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8386 must be defined. E.g.,
8387 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8388 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8389 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8390 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8391
8392 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8393 record layer.
8394 [Bodo Moeller]
8395
8396 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8397 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8398 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8399 [Steve Henson]
8400
8401 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8402 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8403 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8404 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8405 [Steve Henson]
8406
8407 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8408 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8409 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8410 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8411 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8412 is prompted for as usual.
8413 [Steve Henson]
8414
8415 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8416 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8417 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8418 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8419
8420 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8421 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8422 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8423 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8424 [Steve Henson]
8425
8426 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8427 [Andy Polyakov]
8428
8429 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8430 of seed file.
8431 [Steve Henson]
8432
8433 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8434 [Bodo Moeller]
8435
8436 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8437 [Steve Henson]
8438
8439 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8440 bits.
8441 [Ulf Möller]
8442
8443 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8444 [Ulf Möller]
8445
8446 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8447 [Andy Polyakov]
8448
8449 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8450 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8451 [Ulf Möller]
8452
8453 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8454 options to produce them.
8455 [Steve Henson]
8456
8457 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8458 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8459 [Ulf Möller]
8460
8461 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8462 for p == 0.
8463 [Ulf Möller]
8464
8465 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8466 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8467 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8468 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8469 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8470 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8471 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8472 [Steve Henson]
8473
8474 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8475 [Steve Henson]
8476
8477 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8478 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8479 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8480 [Bodo Moeller]
8481
8482 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8483 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8484
8485 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8486 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8487 [Ulf Möller]
8488
8489 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8490 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8491 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8492 has already seen).
8493 [Bodo Moeller]
8494
8495 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8496 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8497
8498 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8499 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8500 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8501 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8502 generation becomes much faster.
8503
8504 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8505 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8506 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8507 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8508 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8509 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8510 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8511 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8512 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8513 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8514 [Bodo Moeller]
8515
8516 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8517 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8518 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8519 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8520 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8521 trial division stage.
8522 [Bodo Moeller]
8523
8524 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8525 as ASN1_TIME.
8526 [Steve Henson]
8527
8528 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8529 [Steve Henson]
8530
8531 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8532 [Ulf Möller]
8533
8534 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8535 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8536 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8537 the comments.
8538 [Ulf Möller]
8539
8540 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8541 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8542 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8543 [Bodo Moeller]
8544
8545 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8546 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8547 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8548 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8549
8550 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8551 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8552 [Steve Henson]
8553
8554 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8555 [Ulf Möller]
8556
8557 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8558 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8559 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8560 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8561 [Ulf Möller]
8562
8563 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8564 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8565 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8566 [Ulf Möller]
8567
8568 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8569 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8570 (instead of parameters) in future.
8571 [Steve Henson]
8572
8573 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8574 when a new cipher list is set.
8575 [Steve Henson]
8576
8577 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8578 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8579 wrong.
8580
8581 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8582 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8583 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8584
8585 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8586 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8587 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8588 an error is flagged.
8589
8590 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8591 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8592 the readability was also increased :-)
8593 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8594
8595 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8596 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8597 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8598 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8599 as the root CA.
8600 [Steve Henson]
8601
8602 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8603 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8604 [Steve Henson]
8605
8606 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8607 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8608 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8609 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8610 instead.
8611
8612 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8613 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8614 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8615 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8616 because they handle more complex structures.)
8617 [Steve Henson]
8618
8619 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8620 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8621 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8622 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8623
8624 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8625 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8626 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8627 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8628 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8629 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8630 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8631 [Ulf Möller]
8632
8633 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8634 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8635 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8636 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8637 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8638 [Bodo Moeller]
8639
8640 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8641 [Bodo Moeller]
8642
8643 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8644 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8645 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8646 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8647 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8648 to use this.
8649
8650 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8651 code.
8652 [Steve Henson]
8653
8654 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8655 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8656 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8657 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8658 [Steve Henson]
8659
8660 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8661 [Ulf Möller]
8662
8663 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8664 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8665 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8666 international characters are used.
8667
8668 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8669 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8670 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8671 in ASN1 order.
8672 [Steve Henson]
8673
8674 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8675 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8676 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8677 request.
8678
8679 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8680 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8681 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8682 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8683 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8684 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8685
8686 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8687 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8688 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8689 be handled by the string table functions.
8690
8691 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8692 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8693 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8694 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8695 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8696 types at all.
8697 [Steve Henson]
8698
8699 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8700 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8701 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8702 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8703 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8704
8705 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8706 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8707 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8708 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8709 [Bodo Moeller]
8710
8711 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8712 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8713 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8714 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8715 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8716 SHA1.
8717 [Andy Polyakov]
8718
8719 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8720 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8721 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8722 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8723 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8724 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8725 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8726 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8727
8728 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8729 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8730 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8731 [Steve Henson]
8732
8733 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8734 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8735 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8736 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8737 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8738 support to pkcs8 application.
8739 [Steve Henson]
8740
8741 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8742 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8743 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8744 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8745 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8746 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8747 [Bodo Moeller]
8748
8749 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8750 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8751 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8752 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8753 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8754 consistency.
8755 [Bodo Moeller]
8756
8757 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8758 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8759 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8760 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8761 example.
8762 [Steve Henson]
8763
8764 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8765 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8766 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8767 and any application specific purposes.
8768
8769 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8770 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8771 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8772 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8773 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8774 if the certificate is self signed.
8775 [Steve Henson]
8776
8777 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8778 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8779 [Steve Henson]
8780
8781 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8782 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8783 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8784 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8785 [Steve Henson]
8786
8787 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8788 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8789 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8790 Update documentation.
8791 [Steve Henson]
8792
8793 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8794 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8795 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8796 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8797 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8798 [Steve Henson]
8799
8800 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8801 for details.
8802 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8803
8804 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8805 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8806 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8807 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8808 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8809 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8810 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8811 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8812 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8813 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8814
8815 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8816
8817 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8818 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8819 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8820 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8821 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8822
8823 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8824 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8825 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8826 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8827 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8828 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8829 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8830 request additional information:
8831 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8832 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8833
8834 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8835 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8836 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8837 options.
8838
8839 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8840 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8841
8842 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8843 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8844 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8845
8846 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8847 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8848
8849 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8850 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8851 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8852 algorithm.
8853 [Steve Henson]
8854
8855 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8856 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8857 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8858
8859 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8860 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8861 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8862 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8863 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8864 included in OpenSSL.
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8868 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8869 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8870 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8871 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8872 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8873 [Bodo Moeller]
8874
8875 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8876 PKCS12 structure.
8877 [Steve Henson]
8878
8879 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8880 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8881 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8882 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8883 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8884 structure.
8885 [Steve Henson]
8886
8887 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8888 need initialising.
8889 [Steve Henson]
8890
8891 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8892 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8893 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8894 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8895 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8896 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8897 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8898 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8899 be maintained manually.
8900
8901 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8902 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8903 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8904 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8905 work because people forget to call this function]
8906 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8907 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8908 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8909 [Steve Henson]
8910
8911 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8912 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8913 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8914 should be discouraged from doing it.
8915 [Ben Laurie]
8916
8917 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8918 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8919 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8920 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8921 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8922 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8923 [Steve Henson]
8924
8925 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8926 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8927 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8928
8929 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8930 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8931 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8932
8933 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8934 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8935 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8936 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8937 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8938 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8939
8940 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8941 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8942 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8943
8944 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8945 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8946 and vice versa.
8947
8948 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8949 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8950 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8951 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8952 [Steve Henson]
8953
8954 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8955 [Steve Henson]
8956
8957 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8958 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8959 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8960 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8961 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8962 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8963 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8964 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8965 keys so we should be OK.
8966
8967 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8968 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8969 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8970 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8971 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8972 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8973 stay in the name of compatibility.
8974
8975 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8976 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8977 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8978
8979 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8980 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8981 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8982 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8983 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8984 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8985 supplied key).
8986 [Steve Henson]
8987
8988 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8989 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8990 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8991 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8992 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8993 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8994 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8995 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8996 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8997 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8998 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8999 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
9000 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
9001 [Steve Henson]
9002
9003 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
9004 [Steve Henson]
9005
9006 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
9007 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
9008 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
9009 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
9010 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
9011 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
9012 single self signed certificate. This means that:
9013 openssl verify ss.pem
9014 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
9015 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
9016 is OK.
9017 [Steve Henson]
9018
9019 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
9020 (and add it to external session representation).
9021 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
9022 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
9023 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
9024 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
9025 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
9026 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
9027 security holes.
9028 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
9029
9030 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
9031 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
9032 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
9033 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
9034
9035 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
9036 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
9037 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
9038 [Steve Henson]
9039
9040 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
9041 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
9042 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
9043 code.
9044 [Steve Henson]
9045
9046 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
9047 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
9048 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
9049
9050 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
9051 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
9052 certificate auxiliary information.
9053 [Steve Henson]
9054
9055 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
9056 the 'enc' command.
9057 [Steve Henson]
9058
9059 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
9060 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
9061 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
9062 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
9063 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
9064 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
9065 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
9066 [Richard Levitte]
9067
9068 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
9069 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
9070 [Steve Henson]
9071
9072 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
9073 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
9074 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
9075 manpages and fix a few bugs.
9076 [Steve Henson]
9077
9078 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
9079 [Steve Henson]
9080
9081 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
9082 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
9083 [Steve Henson]
9084
9085 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
9086 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
9087 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
9088 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
9089 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
9090 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
9091 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
9092 using the new 'x509' options.
9093
9094 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
9095 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
9096 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
9097 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
9098 for all purposes.
9099 [Steve Henson]
9100
9101 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
9102 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
9103 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
9104 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
9105 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
9106 [Mark Cox]
9107
9108 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
9109 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
9110 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
9111 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
9112 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
9113 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
9114 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
9115 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
9116 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
9117 the key length and effective key length are equal.
9118 [Steve Henson]
9119
9120 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
9121 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
9122 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
9123 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
9124 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
9125 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
9126 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
9127 [Steve Henson]
9128
9129 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
9130 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
9131 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
9132 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
9133 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
9134 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
9135 openssl.cnf for more info.
9136 [Steve Henson]
9137
9138 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
9139 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
9140 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
9141 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
9142 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
9143 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
9144 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
9145 md should be large enough anyway.
9146 [Bodo Moeller]
9147
9148 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
9149 for handling the random seed file.
9150
9151 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
9152 ca,
9153 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
9154 s_client,
9155 s_server,
9156 x509 (when signing).
9157 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
9158 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
9159 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
9160
9161 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
9162 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
9163 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
9164 that support '-rand'.
9165 [Bodo Moeller]
9166
9167 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
9168 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
9169 [Bodo Moeller]
9170
9171 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
9172 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
9173 [Bill Perry]
9174
9175 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
9176 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
9177 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
9178 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
9179 is suitable.
9180 [Steve Henson]
9181
9182 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
9183 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
9184 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
9185 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
9186 [Steve Henson]
9187
9188 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
9189 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
9190 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
9191 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
9192 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
9193 print out all the purposes.
9194 [Steve Henson]
9195
9196 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
9197 functions.
9198 [Steve Henson]
9199
9200 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
9201 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
9202 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
9203 single function call.
9204 [Steve Henson]
9205
9206 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
9207 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
9208 [Andy Polyakov]
9209
9210 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
9211 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
9212 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
9213 [Steve Henson]
9214
9215 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
9216 when producing the local key id.
9217 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9218
9219 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
9220 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
9221 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
9222 "server.pem".
9223 [Steve Henson]
9224
9225 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
9226 a public key to be input or output. For example:
9227 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
9228 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
9229 [Steve Henson]
9230
9231 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
9232 in the message. This was handled by allowing
9233 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
9234 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
9235
9236 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
9237 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
9238 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
9239 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
9240
9241 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
9242 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
9243 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
9244 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
9245 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
9246 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
9247 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
9248 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
9249 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
9250 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
9251 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
9252 trivial: move one line.
9253 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
9254
9255 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
9256 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
9257 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
9258 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
9259 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
9260 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
9261 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
9262 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
9263 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
9264 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
9265 with an event loop for example.
9266 [Steve Henson]
9267
9268 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
9269 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
9270 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
9271 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
9272 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
9273 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
9274 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
9275 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
9276 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
9277 [Steve Henson]
9278
9279 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
9280 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
9281 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
9282 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
9283 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
9284 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
9285 [Steve Henson]
9286
9287 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
9288 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
9289 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
9290 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
9291
9292 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
9293 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
9294 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
9295 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
9296 key generation.
9297 [Steve Henson]
9298
9299 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
9300 (still largely untested)
9301 [Bodo Moeller]
9302
9303 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
9304 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
9305 [Steve Henson]
9306
9307 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
9308 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
9309 [Steve Henson]
9310
9311 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
9312 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
9313 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
9314 [Bodo Moeller]
9315
9316 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
9317 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
9318 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
9319 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
9320 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
9321 [Steve Henson]
9322
9323 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
9324 [Andy Polyakov]
9325
9326 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
9327 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
9328 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9329 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9330 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9331 in ca.
9332 [Steve Henson]
9333
9334 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9335 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9336 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9337 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9338 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9339 [Steve Henson]
9340
9341 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9342 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9343 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9344 are otherwise ignored at present.
9345 [Steve Henson]
9346
9347 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9348 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9349 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9350 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9351 copied until the next read.
9352 [Steve Henson]
9353
9354 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9355 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9356 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9357 [Steve Henson]
9358
9359 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9360 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9361 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9362 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9363 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9364 associated functions.
9365 [Steve Henson]
9366
9367 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9368 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9369 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9370 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9371 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9372 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9373 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9374 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9375 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9376 memory BIOs.
9377 [Steve Henson]
9378
9379 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9380 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9381 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9382 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9383 [Bodo Moeller]
9384
9385 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9386 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9387 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9388 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9389 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9390 functionality.
9391 [Steve Henson]
9392
9393 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9394 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9395 under Win32.
9396 [Steve Henson]
9397
9398 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9399 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9400 extensions to be obtained and added.
9401 [Steve Henson]
9402
9403 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9404 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9405 [Bodo Moeller]
9406
9407 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9408
9409 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9410 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9411
9412 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9413 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9414
9415 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9416 program.
9417 [Steve Henson]
9418
9419 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9420 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9421 DH parameters contain its length).
9422
9423 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9424 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9425 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9426 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9427 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9428 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9429 utter importance to use
9430 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9431 or
9432 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9433 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9434 attacks may become possible!
9435 [Bodo Moeller]
9436
9437 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9438 [Bodo Moeller]
9439
9440 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9441 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9442 [Steve Henson]
9443
9444 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9445 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9446 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9447 or long name.
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9451 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9452 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9453 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9454 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9455 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9456 private key operations.
9457 [Steve Henson]
9458
9459 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9460 [Andy Polyakov]
9461
9462 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9463 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9464 to
9465 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9466 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9467 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9468 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9469 the password callback is called.
9470 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9471
9472 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9473
9474 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9475 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9476 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9477 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9478 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9479 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9480 this will work.
9481
9482 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9483 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9484 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9485 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9486 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9487 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9488 [Bodo Moeller]
9489
9490 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9491 [Andy Polyakov]
9492
9493 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9494 delete an unused file.
9495 [Ulf Möller]
9496
9497 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9498 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9499 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9500 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9501 [Steve Henson]
9502
9503 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9504 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9505 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9506 of an error.
9507 [Bodo Moeller]
9508
9509 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9510 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9511 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9512
9513 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9514 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9515 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9516 comparison" warnings.
9517 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9518 [Steve Henson]
9519
9520 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9521 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9522 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9523 [Steve Henson]
9524
9525 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9526 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9527
9528 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9529 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9530
9531 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9532 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9533 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9534
9535 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9536 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9537 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9538 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9539 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9540 this bug.
9541 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9542
9543 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9544 The interface is as follows:
9545 Applications can use
9546 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9547 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9548 "off" is now the default.
9549 The library internally uses
9550 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9551 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9552 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9553
9554 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9555 even the default) are now avoided.
9556
9557 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9558 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9559 than just having a counter.
9560
9561 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9562
9563 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9564 extensions.
9565 [Bodo Moeller]
9566
9567 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9568 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9569 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9570 Initial "mode" flags are:
9571
9572 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9573 a single record has been written.
9574 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9575 retries use the same buffer location.
9576 (But all of the contents must be
9577 copied!)
9578 [Bodo Moeller]
9579
9580 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9581 worked.
9582
9583 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9584 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9585
9586 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9587 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9588 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9589 [Steve Henson]
9590
9591 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9592 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9593 test programs.
9594 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9595
9596 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9597 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9598 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9599 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9600 point to the end.
9601 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9602 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9603
9604 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9605 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9606 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9607 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9608 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9609 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9610 [Steve Henson]
9611
9612 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9613 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9614 necessary function names.
9615 [Steve Henson]
9616
9617 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9618 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9619 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9620 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9621 [Bodo Moeller]
9622
9623 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9624 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9625 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9626 [Steve Henson]
9627
9628 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9629 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9630 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9631 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9632 such programs?)
9633 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9634 need locks.
9635 [Bodo Moeller]
9636
9637 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9638 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9639 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9640 [Bodo Moeller]
9641
9642 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9643 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9644 appropriate.
9645 [Bodo Moeller]
9646
9647 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9648 for the encoded length.
9649 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9650
9651 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9652 [Steve Henson]
9653
9654 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9655 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9656 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9657 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9658 [Steve Henson]
9659
9660 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9661 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9662 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9663
9664 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9665 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9666 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9667 unusual formatting.
9668 [Steve Henson]
9669
9670 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9671 to use the new extension code.
9672 [Steve Henson]
9673
9674 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9675 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9676 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9677 constant.
9678 [Steve Henson]
9679
9680 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9681 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9682 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9683 [Bodo Moeller]
9684
9685 #if 0
9686 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9687 [Ben Laurie]
9688 #else
9689 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9690 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9691 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9692 #endif
9693
9694 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9695 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9696 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9697 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9698 [Ben Laurie]
9699
9700 *) DES library cleanups.
9701 [Ulf Möller]
9702
9703 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9704 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9705 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9706 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9707 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9708 of v2.0.
9709 [Steve Henson]
9710
9711 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9712 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9713 [Bodo Moeller]
9714
9715 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9716 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9717 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9718 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9719 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9720 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9721 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9722 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9723 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9724 [Steve Henson]
9725
9726 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9727 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9728 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9729 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9730 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9731 value doesn't matter.
9732 [Steve Henson]
9733
9734 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9735 support mutable.
9736 [Ben Laurie]
9737
9738 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9739 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9740 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9741 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9742
9743 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9744 [Ulf Möller]
9745
9746 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9747 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9748 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9749
9750 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9751 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9752
9753 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9754 [Ben Laurie]
9755
9756 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9757 [Ben Laurie]
9758
9759 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9760 [Ben Laurie]
9761
9762 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9763 [Bodo Moeller]
9764
9765
9766 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9767
9768 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9769
9770 *) Updated some demos.
9771 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9772
9773 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9774 [Wu Zhigang]
9775
9776 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9777 [Steve Henson]
9778
9779 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9780 [Steve Henson]
9781
9782 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9783 instead of using a fixed path.
9784 [Bodo Moeller]
9785
9786 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9787 [Andy Polyakov]
9788
9789 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9790 [Richard Levitte]
9791
9792
9793 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9794
9795 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9796 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9797 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9798
9799 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9800 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9801 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9802 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9803 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9804 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9805 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9806 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9807 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9808 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9809 [Steve Henson]
9810
9811 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9812 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9813 [Steve Henson]
9814
9815 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9816 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9817 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9818 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9819 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9820
9821 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9822 [Bodo Moeller]
9823
9824 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9825 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9826 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9827 [Steve Henson]
9828
9829 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9830 [Ben Laurie]
9831
9832 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9833 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9834 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9835 key elements as negative integers.
9836 [Steve Henson]
9837
9838 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9839 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9840
9841 *) VMS support.
9842 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9843
9844 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9845 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9846 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9847 [Steve Henson]
9848
9849 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9850 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9851 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9852 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9853 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9854 [Bodo Moeller]
9855
9856 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9857 [Ulf Möller]
9858
9859 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9860 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9861 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9862 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9863
9864 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9865 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9866 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9867
9868 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9869 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9870 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9871 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9872 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9873 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9874 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9875 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9876 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9877
9878 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9879 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9880 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9881 does not influence s as it used to.
9882
9883 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9884 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9885 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9886 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9887 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9888 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9889 [Bodo Moeller]
9890
9891 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9892 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9893 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9894 key type.
9895 [Steve Henson]
9896
9897 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9898 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9899 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9900 and 'x509').
9901 [Steve Henson]
9902
9903 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9904 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9905 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9906 extension option.
9907 [Steve Henson]
9908
9909 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9910 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9911 [Ben Laurie]
9912
9913 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9914 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9915
9916 *) Support Mingw32.
9917 [Ulf Möller]
9918
9919 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9920 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9921
9922 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9923 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9924
9925 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9926 [Ulf Möller]
9927
9928 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9929 [Anonymous]
9930
9931 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9932 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9933
9934 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9935 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9936 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9937 DER-encoded.)
9938 [Bodo Moeller]
9939
9940 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9941 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9942 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9943 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9944 now it really counts the depth.
9945 [Bodo Moeller]
9946
9947 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9948 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9949 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9950 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9951 didn't match the private key).
9952
9953 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9954 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9955 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9956 [Bodo Moeller]
9957
9958 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9959 [Ulf Möller]
9960
9961 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9962 David Harris.
9963 [Bodo Moeller]
9964
9965 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9966 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9967 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9968 [Bodo Moeller]
9969
9970 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9971 [Bodo Moeller]
9972
9973 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9974 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9975 such as /usr/local/bin.
9976 [Bodo Moeller]
9977
9978 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9979 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9980
9981 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9982 [Ulf Möller]
9983
9984 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9985 extension adding in x509 utility.
9986 [Steve Henson]
9987
9988 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9989 [Ulf Möller]
9990
9991 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9992 prototypes.
9993 [Steve Henson]
9994
9995 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9996 [Ulf Möller]
9997
9998 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9999 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
10000 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
10001 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
10002 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
10003 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
10004 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
10005 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
10006 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
10007 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
10008 [Steve Henson]
10009
10010 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
10011 [Bodo Moeller]
10012
10013 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
10014 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
10015 [Bodo Moeller]
10016
10017 *) Fix some race conditions.
10018 [Bodo Moeller]
10019
10020 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
10021 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
10022 [Steve Henson]
10023
10024 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
10025 [Ulf Möller]
10026
10027 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
10028 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
10029 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
10030 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
10031
10032 *) Fix lots of warnings.
10033 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10034
10035 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
10036 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
10037 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10038
10039 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
10040 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10041
10042 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
10043 [Ulf Möller]
10044
10045 *) Fix typos in error codes.
10046 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
10047
10048 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
10049 [Ulf Möller]
10050
10051 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
10052 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
10053
10054 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
10055 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
10056 [Steve Henson]
10057
10058 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
10059 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
10060 [Ben Laurie]
10061
10062 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
10063 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
10064 [Steve Henson]
10065
10066 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
10067 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
10068 [Steve Henson]
10069
10070 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
10071 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
10072 [Steve Henson]
10073
10074 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
10075 support typesafe stack.
10076 [Steve Henson]
10077
10078 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
10079 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
10080
10081 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
10082 old X509V3 handling code.
10083 [Steve Henson]
10084
10085 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
10086 [Ulf Möller]
10087
10088 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
10089 [Bodo Moeller]
10090
10091 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
10092 [Ben Laurie]
10093
10094 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
10095 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
10096
10097 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
10098 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
10099 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
10100 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
10101 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
10102 [Ben Laurie]
10103
10104 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
10105 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
10106 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
10107 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
10108 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
10109
10110 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
10111 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
10112 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
10113 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10114
10115 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
10116 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
10117 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
10118 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10119
10120 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
10121 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
10122 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
10123 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
10124 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
10125 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
10126 [Bodo Moeller]
10127
10128 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
10129 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
10130 [Bodo Moeller]
10131
10132 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
10133 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
10134 [Ulf Möller]
10135
10136 *) Tweaks to Configure
10137 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
10138
10139 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
10140 yet...
10141 [Steve Henson]
10142
10143 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
10144 [Ulf Möller]
10145
10146 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
10147 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
10148 [Ulf Möller]
10149
10150 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
10151 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
10152 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
10153 [Bodo Moeller]
10154
10155 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
10156 [Bodo Moeller]
10157
10158 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
10159 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
10160 [Steve Henson]
10161
10162 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
10163 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
10164 to library startup routines.
10165 [Steve Henson]
10166
10167 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
10168 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
10169 codes along the way.
10170 [Steve Henson]
10171
10172 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
10173 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
10174 objects to objects.h
10175 [Steve Henson]
10176
10177 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
10178 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
10179 [Steve Henson]
10180
10181 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
10182 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
10183
10184 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
10185 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
10186 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
10187
10188 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
10189 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
10190 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10191
10192 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
10193 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
10194 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
10195
10196
10197 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
10198
10199 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
10200 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
10201 [Ben Laurie]
10202
10203 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
10204 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
10205 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
10206 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
10207 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
10208
10209 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
10210 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
10211 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
10212 document.
10213 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10214
10215 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
10216 Malloc, Free.
10217 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
10218
10219 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
10220 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10221
10222 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
10223 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
10224 if someone would make that last step automatic.
10225 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
10226
10227 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
10228 [Ben Laurie]
10229
10230 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
10231 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
10232 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
10233 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
10234 [Steve Henson]
10235
10236 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
10237 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
10238 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
10239 [Steve Henson]
10240
10241 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
10242 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
10243 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
10244 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
10245 installed as `perl').
10246 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10247
10248 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
10249 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10250
10251 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
10252 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
10253 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
10254 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
10255 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
10256 [Steve Henson]
10257
10258 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
10259 [Ben Laurie]
10260
10261 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
10262 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
10263 is horrible: I feel ill....
10264 [Steve Henson]
10265
10266 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
10267 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
10268 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
10269 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
10270 [Steve Henson]
10271
10272 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
10273 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10274
10275 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
10276 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
10277 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
10278 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10279
10280 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
10281 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
10282 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
10283 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
10284 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
10285 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
10286 openssl_bio.xs.
10287 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10288
10289 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
10290 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10291
10292 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
10293 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
10294
10295 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
10296 [Ben Laurie]
10297
10298 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
10299 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
10300 in CRLs.
10301 [Steve Henson]
10302
10303 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
10304 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
10305 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
10306 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
10307 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
10308 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
10309 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
10310 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
10311 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
10312 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
10313 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10314
10315 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
10316 [Ben Laurie]
10317
10318 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
10319 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
10320 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
10321 for linking it into DSOs.
10322 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10323
10324 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
10325 Fixed.
10326 [Ben Laurie]
10327
10328 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10329 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10330 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10331 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10332 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10333 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10334
10335 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10336 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10337 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10338 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10339 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10340 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10341 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10342
10343 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10344 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10345 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10346 encryption.
10347 [Ben Laurie]
10348
10349 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10350 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10351 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10352 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10353 [Steve Henson]
10354
10355 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10356 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10357 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10358 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10359 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10360 field as blank.
10361 [Steve Henson]
10362
10363 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10364 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10365 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10366 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10367 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10368
10369 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10370 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10371 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10372
10373 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10374 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10375
10376 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10377 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10378 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10379 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10380 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10381 [Steve Henson]
10382
10383 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10384 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10385 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10386 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10387 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10388 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10389 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10390 [Ben Laurie]
10391
10392 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10393 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10394 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10395 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10396 [Ben Laurie]
10397
10398 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10399 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10400
10401 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10402 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10403 [Steve Henson]
10404
10405 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10406 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10407 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10408 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10409 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10410 (e.g. s_server).
10411 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10412 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10413 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10414 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10415 no way to reconfigure them.
10416 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10417 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10418 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10419 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10420 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10421 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10422
10423 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10424 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10425 recognized by the users.
10426 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10427
10428 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10429 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10430 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10431 already masked variable.
10432 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10433
10434 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10435 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10436
10437 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10438 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10439 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10440 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10441
10442 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10443 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10444 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10445
10446 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10447 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10448 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10449 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10450 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10451 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10452 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10453 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10454 now, too.
10455 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10456
10457 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10458 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10459 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10460
10461 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10462 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10463 config file.
10464 [Steve Henson]
10465
10466 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10467 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10468
10469 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10470 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10471 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10472 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10473 [Ben Laurie]
10474
10475 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10476 [Steve Henson]
10477
10478 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10479 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10480
10481 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10482 [Ben Laurie]
10483
10484 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10485 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10486 [Steve Henson]
10487
10488 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10489 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10490 [Steve Henson]
10491
10492 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10493 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10494 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10495 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10496 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10497 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10498 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10499 Ben Laurie]
10500
10501 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10502 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10503
10504 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10505 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10506 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10507 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10508 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10509
10510 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10511 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10512 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10513 [Steve Henson]
10514
10515 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10516 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10517 an example.
10518 [Steve Henson]
10519
10520 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10521 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10522 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10523
10524 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10525 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10526 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10527 build instructions.
10528 [Steve Henson]
10529
10530 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10531 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10532 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10533 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10534 [Steve Henson]
10535
10536 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10537 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10538 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10539 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10540 [Ben Laurie]
10541
10542 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10543 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10544 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10545 so it wasn't spotted.
10546 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10547
10548 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10549 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10550 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10551 vectors if you have them.
10552 [Ben Laurie]
10553
10554 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10555 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10556 [Ben Laurie]
10557
10558 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10559 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10560 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10561 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10562 If you do a:
10563 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10564 it will update them.
10565 [Steve Henson]
10566
10567 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10568 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10569 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10570 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10571 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10572 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10573 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10574 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10575
10576 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10577 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10578 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10579 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10580 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10581 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10582 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10583 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10584 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10585 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10586
10587 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10588 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10589 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10590 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10591 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10592 [Steve Henson]
10593
10594 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10595 INTEGER code.
10596 [Steve Henson]
10597
10598 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10599 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10600
10601 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10602 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10603
10604 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10605 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10606 [Ben Laurie]
10607
10608 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10609 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10610
10611 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10612 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10613
10614 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10615 [Steve Henson]
10616
10617 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10618 few typos.
10619 [Steve Henson]
10620
10621 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10622 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10623 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10624 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10625
10626 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10627 [Steve Henson]
10628
10629 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10630 [Steve Henson]
10631
10632 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10633 [Steve Henson]
10634
10635 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10636 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10637 [Steve Henson]
10638
10639 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10640 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10641 CA extensions.
10642 [Steve Henson]
10643
10644 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10645 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10646 [Steve Henson]
10647
10648 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10649 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10650 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10651 [Steve Henson]
10652
10653 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10654 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10655 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10656 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10657 properly to be processed.
10658 [Steve Henson]
10659
10660 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10661 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10662 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10663 [Ben Laurie]
10664
10665 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10666 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10667
10668 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10669 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10670 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10671 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10672 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10673 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10674 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10675 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10676 or delete all the .err files.
10677 [Steve Henson]
10678
10679 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10680 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10681 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10682 to regenerate it if needed.
10683 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10684 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10685
10686 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10687 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10688
10689 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10690 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10691 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10692 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10693 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10694 [Steve Henson]
10695
10696 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10697 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10698
10699 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10700 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10701
10702 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10703 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10704 error, but didn't set one).
10705 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10706
10707 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10708 [Ben Laurie]
10709
10710 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10711 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10712 [Steve Henson]
10713
10714 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10715 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10716
10717 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10718 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10719 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10720 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10721 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10722 OID is not part of the table.
10723 [Steve Henson]
10724
10725 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10726 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10727 [Ben Laurie]
10728
10729 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10730 [Ben Laurie]
10731
10732 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10733 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10734 was "1234").
10735 [Steve Henson]
10736
10737 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10738 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10739
10740 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10741 NULL pointers.
10742 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10743
10744 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10745 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10746
10747 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10748 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10749
10750 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10751 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10752
10753 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10754 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10755 [Ben Laurie]
10756
10757 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10758 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10759 [Steve Henson]
10760
10761 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10762 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10763
10764 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10765 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10766
10767 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10768 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10769
10770 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10771 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10772
10773 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10774 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10775 unused in the certificate verification process.
10776 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10777
10778 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10779 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10780 [Steve Henson]
10781
10782 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10783 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10784 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10785
10786 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10787 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10788 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10789 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10790 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10791
10792 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10793 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10794 [Steve Henson]
10795
10796 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10797 [Steve Henson]
10798
10799 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10800 [Paul Sutton]
10801
10802 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10803 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10804
10805 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10806 [Ben Laurie]
10807
10808 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10809 [Ben Laurie]
10810
10811 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10812 [Ben Laurie]
10813
10814 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10815 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10816 other error libraries.
10817 [Steve Henson]
10818
10819 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10820 [Steve Henson]
10821
10822 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10823 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10824 be read in.
10825 [Steve Henson]
10826
10827 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10828 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10829 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10830 the new set of documenation files.
10831 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10832
10833 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10834 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10835 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10836 number of arguments.
10837 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10838
10839 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10840 [Ben Laurie]
10841
10842 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10843 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10844 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10845
10846 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10847 [Ben Laurie]
10848
10849 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10850 nextstep
10851 ncr-scde
10852 unixware-2.0
10853 unixware-2.0-pentium
10854 sco5-cc.
10855 [Ben Laurie]
10856
10857 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10858 before they are needed.
10859 [Ben Laurie]
10860
10861 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10862 [Ben Laurie]
10863
10864
10865 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
10866
10867 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
10868 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
10869 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10870
10871 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
10872 [Paul Sutton]
10873
10874 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
10875 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
10876 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10877
10878 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
10879 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
10880 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
10881
10882 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
10883 when "ssleay" is still not found.
10884 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10885
10886 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
10887 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
10888
10889 *) Updated the README file.
10890 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10891
10892 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
10893 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
10894 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10895
10896 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
10897 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
10898 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10899
10900 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
10901 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
10902 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
10903 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
10904 o removed obsolete TODO file
10905 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
10906 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10907
10908 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
10909 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
10910 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
10911 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
10912 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
10913 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
10914 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10915
10916 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
10917 [Mark J. Cox]
10918
10919 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
10920 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
10921 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
10922 summer 1998.
10923 [The OpenSSL Project]
10924
10925
10926 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
10927
10928 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
10929 [Eric A. Young]
10930
10931 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
10932 [Eric A. Young]
10933
10934 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
10935 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
10936 [Eric A. Young]
10937
10938 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
10939 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
10940 available).
10941 [Eric A. Young]
10942
10943 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
10944 binary structures
10945 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
10946
10947 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
10948 [Eric A. Young]
10949
10950 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
10951 [Eric A. Young]
10952
10953 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
10954 [Eric A. Young]
10955
10956 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
10957 [Eric A. Young]
10958
10959 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
10960 [Eric A. Young]
10961
10962 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
10963 [Eric A. Young]
10964
10965 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
10966 [Eric A. Young]
10967
10968 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
10969 [Eric A. Young]
10970
10971 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
10972 [Eric A. Young]
10973
10974 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
10975 [Eric A. Young]
10976
10977 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
10978 [Eric A. Young]
10979
10980 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
10981 [Eric A. Young]
10982
10983 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
10984 [Eric A. Young]
10985
10986 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
10987 [Eric A. Young]
10988
10989 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
10990 [Eric A. Young]
10991
10992 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
10993 [Eric A. Young]
10994
10995 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
10996 [Eric A. Young]
10997
10998 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
10999 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
11000 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
11001 [Eric A. Young]
11002
11003 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
11004 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
11005 [Eric A. Young]
11006
11007 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
11008 [Eric A. Young]
11009
11010 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
11011 [Eric A. Young]
11012
11013 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
11014 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
11015 [Eric A. Young]
11016
11017 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
11018 [Eric A. Young]
11019
11020 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
11021 [Eric A. Young]
11022
11023 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
11024 bytes sent in the client random.
11025 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
11026
