4
5 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Add support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV.
8 Client applications doing fallback retries should call
9 SSL_set_mode(s, SSL_MODE_SEND_FALLBACK_SCSV).
10 (CVE-2014-3566)
11 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
12
13 *) Accelerated NIST P-256 elliptic curve implementation for x86_64
14 (other platforms pending).
15 [Shay Gueron (Intel Corp), Andy Polyakov]
16
17 *) Add support for the SignedCertificateTimestampList certificate and
18 OCSP response extensions from RFC6962.
19 [Rob Stradling]
20
21 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
22 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
23 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
24 [Bodo Moeller]
25
26 *) Initial support for PowerISA 2.0.7, first implemented in POWER8.
27 This covers AES, SHA256/512 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most
28 common cases are optimized and there still is room for further
29 improvements. Vector Permutation AES for Altivec is also added.
30 [Andy Polyakov]
31
32 *) Add support for little-endian ppc64 Linux target.
33 [Marcelo Cerri (IBM)]
34
35 *) Initial support for AMRv8 ISA crypto extensions. This covers AES,
36 SHA1, SHA256 and GHASH. "Initial" means that most common cases
37 are optimized and there still is room for further improvements.
38 Both 32- and 64-bit modes are supported.
39 [Andy Polyakov, Ard Biesheuvel (Linaro)]
40
41 *) Improved ARMv7 NEON support.
42 [Andy Polyakov]
43
44 *) Support for SPARC Architecture 2011 crypto extensions, first
45 implemented in SPARC T4. This covers AES, DES, Camellia, SHA1,
46 SHA256/512, MD5, GHASH and modular exponentiation.
47 [Andy Polyakov, David Miller]
48
49 *) Accelerated modular exponentiation for Intel processors, a.k.a.
50 RSAZ.
51 [Shay Gueron (Intel Corp)]
52
53 *) Support for new and upcoming Intel processors, including AVX2,
54 BMI and SHA ISA extensions. This includes additional "stitched"
55 implementations, AESNI-SHA256 and GCM, and multi-buffer support
56 for TLS encrypt.
57
58 This work was sponsored by Intel Corp.
59 [Andy Polyakov]
60
61 *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
62 supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
63 supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
64 [Steve Henson]
65
66 *) Use algorithm specific chains in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file():
67 this fixes a limiation in previous versions of OpenSSL.
68 [Steve Henson]
69
70 *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
71 MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
72 [Steve Henson]
73
74 *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
75 existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
76 the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
77 algorithms and include tests cases.
78 [Steve Henson]
79
80 *) Add functions to allocate and set the fields of an ECDSA_METHOD
81 structure.
82 [Douglas E. Engert, Steve Henson]
83
84 *) New functions OPENSSL_gmtime_diff and ASN1_TIME_diff to find the
85 difference in days and seconds between two tm or ASN1_TIME structures.
86 [Steve Henson]
87
88 *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
89 received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
90 summary of the connection parameters.
91 [Steve Henson]
92
93 *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
94 of connection parameters.
95 [Steve Henson]
96
97 *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
98 [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
99
100 *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
101 from CRLDP extension in certificates.
102 [Steve Henson]
103
104 *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
105 [Steve Henson]
106
107 *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
108 of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
109 [Steve Henson]
110
111 *) New functions to set lookup_crls function and to retrieve
112 X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
113 [Steve Henson]
114
115 *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
116 certificates.
117 [Steve Henson]
118
119 *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
120 HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
121 CRLs using the OCSP API.
122 [Steve Henson]
123
124 *) Delegate command line handling in s_client/s_server to SSL_CONF APIs.
125 [Steve Henson]
126
127 *) SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework for application
128 configuration using configuration files or command lines.
129 [Steve Henson]
130
131 *) SSL/TLS tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
132 message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
133 "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
134 tracing.
135 [Steve Henson]
136
137 *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
138 Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
139 [Steve Henson]
140
141 *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
142 OID NID.
143 [Steve Henson]
144
145 *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
146 client to OpenSSL.
147 [Steve Henson]
148
149 *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
150 of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
151 only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
152 strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
153 [Steve Henson]
154
155 *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
156 algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
157 [Steve Henson]
158
159 *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
160 by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
161 certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
162 comparison.
163 [Steve Henson]
164
165 *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
166 preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
167 signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
168 use the certificate.
169 [Steve Henson]
170
171 *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
172 [Steve Henson]
173
174 *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
175 possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
176 the parent SSL_CTX. Include distint stores for certificate chain
177 verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
178 to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returing
179 an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
180 to test if a chain is correctly configured.
181
182 Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
183 store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
184
185 [Steve Henson]
186
187 *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
188 mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
189 hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
190 [Steve Henson]
191
192 *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
193 request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
194 types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
195 supported signature algorithms.
196 [Steve Henson]
197
198 *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
199 [Steve Henson]
200
201 *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
202 is required by client or server. An application can decide which
203 certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
204 supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
205 This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
206 certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
207 certificate and specify the whole chain.
208 [Steve Henson]
209
210 *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
211 the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
212 in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
213 to have similar checks in it.
214
215 Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
216 This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
217 certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
218 extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
219 with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
220 [Steve Henson]
221
222 *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
223 shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
224 and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
225 shared signature algorithms.
226 [Steve Henson]
227
228 *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
229 for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
230 to support them.
231 [Steve Henson]
232
233 *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
234 from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
235 it couldn't be removed.
236 [Steve Henson]
237
238 *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
239 verification. New verify options supporting checking in opensl utility.
240 [Steve Henson]
241
242 *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
243 functions. Add manual page.
244 [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
245
246 *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
247 certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
248 a certificate.
249 [Steve Henson]
250
251 *) Fix OCSP checking.
252 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
253
254 *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
255 OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
256 intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
257 setting is used: whether to trust (e.g., -addtrust option to the x509
258 utility) or reject.
259 [Steve Henson]
260
261 *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
262 trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
263 [Steve Henson]
264
265 *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
266 platform support for Linux and Android.
267 [Andy Polyakov]
268
269 *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
270 [Andy Polyakov]
271
272 *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
273 When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
274 when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
275 This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
276 (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
277 [Steve Henson]
278
279 *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
280 PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
281 the new parameter format automatically.
282 [Steve Henson]
283
284 *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
285 to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
286 [Steve Henson]
287
288 *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
289 [Steve Henson]
290
291 *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
292 the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
293 hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
294 SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
295 support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
296 [Steve Henson]
297
298 *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
299 static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
300 New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
301 Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
302 to set list of supported curves.
303 [Steve Henson]
304
305 *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
306 supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
307 to print out received values.
308 [Steve Henson]
309
310 *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
311 between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
312 ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
313 [Steve Henson]
314
315 *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
316 chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
317 [Steve Henson]
318
319 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
320 server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
321 [Steve Henson]
322
323 *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
324 certificates.
325 [Steve Henson]
326
327 *) New function i2d_re_X509_tbs for re-encoding the TBS portion of
328 the certificate.
329 Note: Related 1.0.2-beta specific macros X509_get_cert_info,
330 X509_CINF_set_modified, X509_CINF_get_issuer, X509_CINF_get_extensions and
331 X509_CINF_get_signature were reverted post internal team review.
332
333 Changes between 1.0.1h and 1.0.1i [6 Aug 2014]
334
335 *) Fix SRP buffer overrun vulnerability. Invalid parameters passed to the
336 SRP code can be overrun an internal buffer. Add sanity check that
337 g, A, B < N to SRP code.
338
339 Thanks to Sean Devlin and Watson Ladd of Cryptography Services, NCC
340 Group for discovering this issue.
341 (CVE-2014-3512)
342 [Steve Henson]
343
344 *) A flaw in the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code causes the server to negotiate
345 TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions when the ClientHello message
346 is badly fragmented. This allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to force a
347 downgrade to TLS 1.0 even if both the server and the client support a
348 higher protocol version, by modifying the client's TLS records.
349
350 Thanks to David Benjamin and Adam Langley (Google) for discovering and
351 researching this issue.
352 (CVE-2014-3511)
353 [David Benjamin]
354
355 *) OpenSSL DTLS clients enabling anonymous (EC)DH ciphersuites are subject
356 to a denial of service attack. A malicious server can crash the client
357 with a null pointer dereference (read) by specifying an anonymous (EC)DH
358 ciphersuite and sending carefully crafted handshake messages.
359
360 Thanks to Felix Gröbert (Google) for discovering and researching this
361 issue.
362 (CVE-2014-3510)
363 [Emilia Käsper]
364
365 *) By sending carefully crafted DTLS packets an attacker could cause openssl
366 to leak memory. This can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
367 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
368 (CVE-2014-3507)
369 [Adam Langley]
370
371 *) An attacker can force openssl to consume large amounts of memory whilst
372 processing DTLS handshake messages. This can be exploited through a
373 Denial of Service attack.
374 Thanks to Adam Langley for discovering and researching this issue.
375 (CVE-2014-3506)
376 [Adam Langley]
377
378 *) An attacker can force an error condition which causes openssl to crash
379 whilst processing DTLS packets due to memory being freed twice. This
380 can be exploited through a Denial of Service attack.
381 Thanks to Adam Langley and Wan-Teh Chang for discovering and researching
382 this issue.
383 (CVE-2014-3505)
384 [Adam Langley]
385
386 *) If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed
387 session and the server sends an ec point format extension it could write
388 up to 255 bytes to freed memory.
389
390 Thanks to Gabor Tyukasz (LogMeIn Inc) for discovering and researching this
391 issue.
392 (CVE-2014-3509)
393 [Gabor Tyukasz]
394
395 *) A malicious server can crash an OpenSSL client with a null pointer
396 dereference (read) by specifying an SRP ciphersuite even though it was not
397 properly negotiated with the client. This can be exploited through a
398 Denial of Service attack.
399
400 Thanks to Joonas Kuorilehto and Riku Hietamäki (Codenomicon) for
401 discovering and researching this issue.
402 (CVE-2014-5139)
403 [Steve Henson]
404
405 *) A flaw in OBJ_obj2txt may cause pretty printing functions such as
406 X509_name_oneline, X509_name_print_ex et al. to leak some information
407 from the stack. Applications may be affected if they echo pretty printing
408 output to the attacker.
409
410 Thanks to Ivan Fratric (Google) for discovering this issue.
411 (CVE-2014-3508)
412 [Emilia Käsper, and Steve Henson]
413
414 *) Fix ec_GFp_simple_points_make_affine (thus, EC_POINTs_mul etc.)
415 for corner cases. (Certain input points at infinity could lead to
416 bogus results, with non-infinity inputs mapped to infinity too.)
417 [Bodo Moeller]
418
419 Changes between 1.0.1i and 1.0.1j [xx XXX xxxx]
420
421 *) Add additional DigestInfo checks.
422
423 Reencode DigestInto in DER and check against the original when
424 verifying RSA signature: this will reject any improperly encoded
425 DigestInfo structures.
426
427 Note: this is a precautionary measure and no attacks are currently known.
428
429 [Steve Henson]
430
431 Changes between 1.0.1g and 1.0.1h [5 Jun 2014]
432
433 *) Fix for SSL/TLS MITM flaw. An attacker using a carefully crafted
434 handshake can force the use of weak keying material in OpenSSL
435 SSL/TLS clients and servers.
436
437 Thanks to KIKUCHI Masashi (Lepidum Co. Ltd.) for discovering and
438 researching this issue. (CVE-2014-0224)
439 [KIKUCHI Masashi, Steve Henson]
440
441 *) Fix DTLS recursion flaw. By sending an invalid DTLS handshake to an
442 OpenSSL DTLS client the code can be made to recurse eventually crashing
443 in a DoS attack.
444
445 Thanks to Imre Rad (Search-Lab Ltd.) for discovering this issue.
446 (CVE-2014-0221)
447 [Imre Rad, Steve Henson]
448
449 *) Fix DTLS invalid fragment vulnerability. A buffer overrun attack can
450 be triggered by sending invalid DTLS fragments to an OpenSSL DTLS
451 client or server. This is potentially exploitable to run arbitrary
452 code on a vulnerable client or server.
453
454 Thanks to Jüri Aedla for reporting this issue. (CVE-2014-0195)
455 [Jüri Aedla, Steve Henson]
456
457 *) Fix bug in TLS code where clients enable anonymous ECDH ciphersuites
458 are subject to a denial of service attack.
459
460 Thanks to Felix Gröbert and Ivan Fratric at Google for discovering
461 this issue. (CVE-2014-3470)
462 [Felix Gröbert, Ivan Fratric, Steve Henson]
463
464 *) Harmonize version and its documentation. -f flag is used to display
465 compilation flags.
466 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
467
468 *) Fix eckey_priv_encode so it immediately returns an error upon a failure
469 in i2d_ECPrivateKey.
470 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
471
472 *) Fix some double frees. These are not thought to be exploitable.
473 [mancha <mancha1@zoho.com>]
474
475 Changes between 1.0.1f and 1.0.1g [7 Apr 2014]
476
477 *) A missing bounds check in the handling of the TLS heartbeat extension
478 can be used to reveal up to 64k of memory to a connected client or
479 server.
480
481 Thanks for Neel Mehta of Google Security for discovering this bug and to
482 Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> and Bodo Moeller <bmoeller@acm.org> for
483 preparing the fix (CVE-2014-0160)
484 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller]
485
486 *) Fix for the attack described in the paper "Recovering OpenSSL
487 ECDSA Nonces Using the FLUSH+RELOAD Cache Side-channel Attack"
488 by Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger. Details can be obtained from:
489 http://eprint.iacr.org/2014/140
490
491 Thanks to Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger for discovering this
492 flaw and to Yuval Yarom for supplying a fix (CVE-2014-0076)
493 [Yuval Yarom and Naomi Benger]
494
495 *) TLS pad extension: draft-agl-tls-padding-03
496
497 Workaround for the "TLS hang bug" (see FAQ and PR#2771): if the
498 TLS client Hello record length value would otherwise be > 255 and
499 less that 512 pad with a dummy extension containing zeroes so it
500 is at least 512 bytes long.
501
502 [Adam Langley, Steve Henson]
503
504 Changes between 1.0.1e and 1.0.1f [6 Jan 2014]
505
506 *) Fix for TLS record tampering bug. A carefully crafted invalid
507 handshake could crash OpenSSL with a NULL pointer exception.
508 Thanks to Anton Johansson for reporting this issues.
509 (CVE-2013-4353)
510
511 *) Keep original DTLS digest and encryption contexts in retransmission
512 structures so we can use the previous session parameters if they need
513 to be resent. (CVE-2013-6450)
514 [Steve Henson]
515
516 *) Add option SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) which
517 avoids preferring ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be
518 Safari on OS X. Safari on OS X 10.8..10.8.3 advertises support for
519 several ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers, but fails to negotiate them. The bug
520 is fixed in OS X 10.8.4, but Apple have ruled out both hot fixing
521 10.8..10.8.3 and forcing users to upgrade to 10.8.4 or newer.
522 [Rob Stradling, Adam Langley]
523
524 Changes between 1.0.1d and 1.0.1e [11 Feb 2013]
525
526 *) Correct fix for CVE-2013-0169. The original didn't work on AES-NI
527 supporting platforms or when small records were transferred.
528 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
529
530 Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [5 Feb 2013]
531
532 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
533
534 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
535 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
536 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
537
538 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
539 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
540 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
541 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
542 (CVE-2013-0169)
543 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
544
545 *) Fix flaw in AESNI handling of TLS 1.2 and 1.1 records for CBC mode
546 ciphersuites which can be exploited in a denial of service attack.
547 Thanks go to and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for discovering
548 and detecting this bug and to Wolfgang Ettlinger
549 <wolfgang.ettlinger@gmail.com> for independently discovering this issue.
550 (CVE-2012-2686)
551 [Adam Langley]
552
553 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
554 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
555 [Steve Henson]
556
557 *) Make openssl verify return errors.
558 [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
559
560 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
561 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
562 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
563 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
564 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
565
566 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
567 [Steve Henson]
568
569 *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
570 if renegotiating.
571 [Steve Henson]
572
573 Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
574
575 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
576 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to fix DoS attack.
577
578 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
579 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
580 (CVE-2012-2333)
581 [Steve Henson]
582
583 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
584 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
585 [Steve Henson]
586
587 *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
588 approved.
589 [Steve Henson]
590
591 Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
592
593 *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
594 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
595 mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
596 SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disablng
597 TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
598 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
599 OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
600 will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
601 inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
602 in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
603 [Steve Henson]
604
605 *) In order to ensure interoperabilty SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
606 disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
607 protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
608 that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
609 above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
610 SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
611 client side.
612 [Andy Polyakov]
613
614 Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
615
616 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
617 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
618 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
619
620 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
621 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
622 (CVE-2012-2110)
623 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
624
625 *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
626 [Adam Langley]
627
628 *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
629 record length exceeds 255 bytes.
630
631 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
632 hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
633 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
634 the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
635 set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
636 -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
637 Most broken servers should now work.
638 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
639 TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
640 [Steve Henson]
641
642 *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
643 [Andy Polyakov]
644
645 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
646
647 *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
648 STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
649 [Steve Henson]
650
651 *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
652 and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
653 OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
654 those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
655 the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
656 [Steve Henson]
657
658 *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
659 support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
660 encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
661 client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
662 and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
663 [Steve Henson]
664
665 *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
666 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
667
668 *) Add support for SCTP.
669 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
670
671 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
672 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
673
674 *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
675
676 - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
677 - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
678 - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
679 - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
680 - s390x: z196 support;
681 - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
682
683 [Andy Polyakov]
684
685 *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
686 (removal of unnecessary code)
687 [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
688
689 *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
690 [Eric Rescorla]
691
692 *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
693 [Eric Rescorla]
694
695 *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
696 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
697 disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
698 by Google.
699 [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
700
701 *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
702 NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
703 typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
704 required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
705 Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
706
707 Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
708 line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
709 "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:
710
711 EC_GFp_nistp224_method()
712 EC_GFp_nistp256_method()
713 EC_GFp_nistp521_method()
714
715 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use these (while
716 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently prefers the more flexible
717 implementations).
718 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
719
720 *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
721 all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
722 header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
723 [Steve Henson]
724
725 *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
726 signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
727 particular PSS.
728 [Steve Henson]
729
730 *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
731 appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
732 corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
733 [Steve Henson]
734
735 *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
736 New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
737 EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
738 the appropriate parameters.
739 [Steve Henson]
740
741 *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
742 to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
743 handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
744 Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
745 against a number of sample certificates.
746 [Steve Henson]
747
748 *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
749 [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
750
751 *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
752 can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
753
754 More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
755 information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
756 parameters r, s.
757 [Steve Henson]
758
759 *) Password based recipient info support for CMS library: implementing
760 RFC3211.
761 [Steve Henson]
762
763 *) Split password based encryption into PBES2 and PBKDF2 functions. This
764 neatly separates the code into cipher and PBE sections and is required
765 for some algorithms that split PBES2 into separate pieces (such as
766 password based CMS).
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 *) Session-handling fixes:
770 - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
771 but also support Session Tickets.
772 - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
773 presented a ticket with an expired session.
774 - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
775 - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
776 - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
777 [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
778
779 *) Fix PSK session representation.
780 [Bodo Moeller]
781
782 *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
783
784 This work was sponsored by Intel.
785 [Andy Polyakov]
786
787 *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
788 the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
789 portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
790 RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
791 add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
792 [Steve Henson]
793
794 *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
795 field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
796 [Steve Henson]
797
798 *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
799 As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
800 versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
801 [Steve Henson]
802
803 *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
804 as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
805 This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
806 swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
807 [Steve Henson]
808
809 *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
810 ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
811 keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
812 [Steve Henson]
813
814 *) Add -attime option to openssl utilities.
815 [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org>, Ben Laurie and Steve Henson]
816
817 *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
818 [Steve Henson]
819
820 *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
821 FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
822 [Steve Henson]
823
824 *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
825 [Steve Henson]
826
827 *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
828 all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
829 [Steve Henson]
830
831 *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
832 encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
833 [Steve Henson]
834
835 *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
836 [Steve Henson]
837
838 *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
839 to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
840 to use them can use the private_* version instead.
841 [Steve Henson]
842
843 *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
844 [Steve Henson]
845
846 *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
847 [Steve Henson]
848
849 *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
850 for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
851 [Steve Henson]
852
853 *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
854 order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
855 This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
856 [Steve Henson]
857
858 *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
859 [Steve Henson]
860
861 *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
862 and enable MD5.
863 [Steve Henson]
864
865 *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
866 FIPS modules versions.
867 [Steve Henson]
868
869 *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
870 of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
871 until after the certificate request message is received.
872 [Steve Henson]
873
874 *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
875 extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature
876 format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
877 TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
878 [Steve Henson]
879
880 *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
881 to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
882 All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
883 support yet and no support for client certificates.
884 [Steve Henson]
885
886 *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
887 to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
888 ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
889 TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
890 SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
891 and version checking.
892 [Steve Henson]
893
894 *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
895 with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
896 structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
897 to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
898 [Steve Henson]
899
900 *) Add SRP support.
901 [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
902
903 *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
904 [Steve Henson]
905
906 *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
907 SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
908 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
909
910 *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
911 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
912 automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
913 [Steve Henson]
914
915 *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
916 [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
917
918 *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
919 a few changes are required:
920
921 Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
922 Add TLSv1_1 methods.
923 Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
924 Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
925 Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
926 [Steve Henson]
927
928 Changes between 1.0.0j and 1.0.0k [5 Feb 2013]
929
930 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
931
932 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
933 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
934 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
935
936 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
937 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
938 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
939 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
940 (CVE-2013-0169)
941 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
942
943 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
944 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
945 [Steve Henson]
946
947 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
948 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
949 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
950 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
951 (This is a backport)
952 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
953
954 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
955 [Steve Henson]
956
957 Changes between 1.0.0i and 1.0.0j [10 May 2012]
958
959 [NB: OpenSSL 1.0.0i and later 1.0.0 patch levels were released after
960 OpenSSL 1.0.1.]
961
962 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
963 to fix DoS attack.
964
965 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
966 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
967 (CVE-2012-2333)
968 [Steve Henson]
969
970 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
971 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
972 [Steve Henson]
973
974 Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.0i [19 Apr 2012]
975
976 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
977 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
978 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
979
980 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
981 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
982 (CVE-2012-2110)
983 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
984
985 Changes between 1.0.0g and 1.0.0h [12 Mar 2012]
986
987 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
988 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
989 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
990 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
991 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
992 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
993 an MMA defence is not necessary.
994 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
995 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
996 [Steve Henson]
997
998 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
999 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
1000 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
1001 [Steve Henson]
1002
1003 Changes between 1.0.0f and 1.0.0g [18 Jan 2012]
1004
1005 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
1006 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
1007 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
1008 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
1009 [Antonio Martin]
1010
1011 Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.0f [4 Jan 2012]
1012
1013 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
1014 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
1015 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
1016 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
1017 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
1018 paper describing this attack can be found at:
1019 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
1020 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1021 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1022 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
1023 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
1024 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
1025 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
1026
1027 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
1028 (CVE-2011-4576)
1029 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1030
1031 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
1032 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
1033 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
1034 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1035
1036 *) Check parameters are not NULL in GOST ENGINE. (CVE-2012-0027)
1037 [Andrey Kulikov <amdeich@gmail.com>]
1038
1039 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
1040 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
1041 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
1042 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
1043
1044 *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
1045 [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
1046
1047 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
1048 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1049
1050 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
1051 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1052
1053 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
1054 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
1055 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1056
1057 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
1058 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
1059 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
1060
1061 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
1062 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
1063 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
1064 the last update always remained unused).
1065 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
1066
1067 *) In ssl3_clear, preserve s3->init_extra along with s3->rbuf.
1068 [Bob Buckholz (Google)]
1069
1070 Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [6 Sep 2011]
1071
1072 *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
1073 by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
1074 [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
1075
1076 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
1077 for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
1078 [Adam Langley (Google)]
1079
1080 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
1081 [Bodo Moeller]
1082
1083 *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
1084 signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
1085 Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
1086 [Steve Henson]
1087
1088 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
1089 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
1090
1091 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
1092
1093 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
1094
1095 Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
1096
1097 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
1098 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
1099
1100 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
1101 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
1102 ambiguous.
1103 [Steve Henson]
1104
1105 Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
1106
1107 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
1108 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
1109 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
1110 [Steve Henson]
1111
1112 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
1113 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
1114 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
1115 [Ben Laurie]
1116
1117 Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
1118
1119 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
1120 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
1121 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
1122 [Steve Henson]
1123
1124 *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
1125 a DLL.
1126 [Steve Henson]
1127
1128 Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
1129
1130 *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
1131 (CVE-2010-1633)
1132 [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
1133
1134 Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
1135
1136 *) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
1137 context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
1138 case ENGINEs want to include additional functionality.
1139 [Steve Henson]
1140
1141 *) Tolerate yet another broken PKCS#8 key format: private key value negative.
1142 [Steve Henson]
1143
1144 *) Add new -subject_hash_old and -issuer_hash_old options to x509 utility to
1145 output hashes compatible with older versions of OpenSSL.
1146 [Willy Weisz <weisz@vcpc.univie.ac.at>]
1147
1148 *) Fix compression algorithm handling: if resuming a session use the
1149 compression algorithm of the resumed session instead of determining
1150 it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
1151 [Steve Henson]
1152
1153 *) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
1154 to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
1155 [Steve Henson]
1156
1157 *) Update OCSP request code to permit adding custom headers to the request:
1158 some responders need this.
1159 [Steve Henson]
1160
1161 *) The function EVP_PKEY_sign() returns <=0 on error: check return code
1162 correctly.
1163 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
1164
1165 *) Update verify callback code in apps/s_cb.c and apps/verify.c, it
1166 needlessly dereferenced structures, used obsolete functions and
1167 didn't handle all updated verify codes correctly.
1168 [Steve Henson]
1169
1170 *) Disable MD2 in the default configuration.
1171 [Steve Henson]
1172
1173 *) In BIO_pop() and BIO_push() use the ctrl argument (which was NULL) to
1174 indicate the initial BIO being pushed or popped. This makes it possible
1175 to determine whether the BIO is the one explicitly called or as a result
1176 of the ctrl being passed down the chain. Fix BIO_pop() and SSL BIOs so
1177 it handles reference counts correctly and doesn't zero out the I/O bio
1178 when it is not being explicitly popped. WARNING: applications which
1179 included workarounds for the old buggy behaviour will need to be modified
1180 or they could free up already freed BIOs.
1181 [Steve Henson]
1182
1183 *) Extend the uni2asc/asc2uni => OPENSSL_uni2asc/OPENSSL_asc2uni
1184 renaming to all platforms (within the 0.9.8 branch, this was
1185 done conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name clash).
1186 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
1187
1188 *) Add ECDHE and PSK support to DTLS.
1189 [Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>]
1190
1191 *) Add CHECKED_STACK_OF macro to safestack.h, otherwise safestack can't
1192 be used on C++.
1193 [Steve Henson]
1194
1195 *) Add "missing" function EVP_MD_flags() (without this the only way to
1196 retrieve a digest flags is by accessing the structure directly. Update
1197 EVP_MD_do_all*() and EVP_CIPHER_do_all*() to include the name a digest
1198 or cipher is registered as in the "from" argument. Print out all
1199 registered digests in the dgst usage message instead of manually
1200 attempting to work them out.
1201 [Steve Henson]
1202
1203 *) If no SSLv2 ciphers are used don't use an SSLv2 compatible client hello:
1204 this allows the use of compression and extensions. Change default cipher
1205 string to remove SSLv2 ciphersuites. This effectively avoids ancient SSLv2
1206 by default unless an application cipher string requests it.
1207 [Steve Henson]
1208
1209 *) Alter match criteria in PKCS12_parse(). It used to try to use local
1210 key ids to find matching certificates and keys but some PKCS#12 files
1211 don't follow the (somewhat unwritten) rules and this strategy fails.
1212 Now just gather all certificates together and the first private key
1213 then look for the first certificate that matches the key.
1214 [Steve Henson]
1215
1216 *) Support use of registered digest and cipher names for dgst and cipher
1217 commands instead of having to add each one as a special case. So now
1218 you can do:
1219
1220 openssl sha256 foo
1221
1222 as well as:
1223
1224 openssl dgst -sha256 foo
1225
1226 and this works for ENGINE based algorithms too.
1227
1228 [Steve Henson]
1229
1230 *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.
1231 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1232
1233 *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility.
1234 [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
1235
1236 *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
1237 form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
1238 even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
1239 is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
1240 be used to rebuild symbolic links.
1241 [Steve Henson]
1242
1243 *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
1244 traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
1245 include an implicit MD5 dependency.
1246 [Steve Henson]
1247
1248 *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
1249 committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
1250 [Steve Henson]
1251
1252 *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.
1253 [Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi>]
1254
1255 *) Modify HMAC functions to return a value. Since these can be implemented
1256 in an ENGINE errors can occur.
1257 [Steve Henson]
1258
1259 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
1260 [Ben Laurie]
1261
1262 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
1263 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
1264 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
1265 CONF_VALUE.
1266 [Ben Laurie]
1267
1268 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
1269 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
1270 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
1271 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
1272 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
1273 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
1274 [Steve Henson]
1275
1276 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
1277 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
1278
1279 This work was sponsored by Google.
1280 [Steve Henson]
1281
1282 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
1283 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
1284 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
1285 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
1286 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
1287 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
1288 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
1289 default.
1290
1291 This work was sponsored by Google.
1292 [Steve Henson]
1293
1294 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
1295
1296 This work was sponsored by Google.
1297 [Steve Henson]
1298
1299 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
1300 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
1301 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
1302 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
1303
1304 This work was sponsored by Google.
1305 [Steve Henson]
1306
1307 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
1308 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
1309 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
1310 CRL functionality in future.
1311
1312 This work was sponsored by Google.
1313 [Steve Henson]
1314
1315 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
1316
1317 This work was sponsored by Google.
1318 [Steve Henson]
1319
1320 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
1321 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
1322
1323 This work was sponsored by Google.
1324 [Steve Henson]
1325
1326 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
1327 and URI types are currently supported.
1328
1329 This work was sponsored by Google.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
1333 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
1334 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
1335 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
1336 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
1337 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
1338 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
1339 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
1340
1341 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
1342 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
1343 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
1344
1345 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
1346 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
1347 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
1348 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
1349
1350 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
1351 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
1352 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
1353 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
1354 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
1355 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
1356 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
1357 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
1358 of &errno.)
1359 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
1360
1361 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
1362 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
1363 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
1364
1365 This work was sponsored by Google.
1366 [Steve Henson]
1367
1368 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
1369 [Ben Laurie]
1370
1371 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1372 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
1373 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
1374 [Ben Laurie]
1375
1376 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
1377 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
1378 [Nick Mathewson]
1379
1380 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
1381 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
1382 [Ben Laurie]
1383
1384 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
1385 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
1386 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
1387 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
1388 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
1389 content types and variants.
1390 [Steve Henson]
1391
1392 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
1393 [Steve Henson]
1394
1395 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
1396 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
1397 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
1398 files from the associated perl scripts.
1399 [Steve Henson]
1400
1401 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
1402 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
1403 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1404
1405 *) s390x assembler pack.
1406 [Andy Polyakov]
1407
1408 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
1409 "family."
1410 [Andy Polyakov]
1411
1412 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
1413 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
1414 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
1415 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
1416 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
1417 to use. For example, specify an option
1418
1419 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
1420
1421 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
1422 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
1423 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
1424 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
1425 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
1426 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
1427
1428 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
1429 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
1430 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
1431 return non-zero for success.
1432
1433 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
1434 by using
1435
1436 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
1437 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
1438
1439 where
1440
1441 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
1442 void *arg;
1443
1444 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
1445 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
1446 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
1447 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
1448 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
1449 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
1450 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
1451 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
1452 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
1453
1454 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
1455 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
1456 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
1457 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
1458 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
1459 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
1460
1461 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
1462 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
1463 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
1464 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
1465 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
1466 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
1467
1468 [Bodo Moeller]
1469
1470 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
1471 MAC.
1472
1473 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
1474
1475 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
1476 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
1477 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
1478 supported.
1479
1480 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
1481 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
1482 SSL_SESSION.
1483
1484 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
1485 protection in servers so again support should be possible
1486 with no application modification.
1487
1488 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
1489 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
1490
1491 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
1492 or server extensions to be examined.
1493
1494 This work was sponsored by Google.
1495 [Steve Henson]
1496
1497 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
1498 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
1499 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
1500
1501 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
1502 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
1503 ciphersuite support.
1504 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
1505
1506 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
1507 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
1508 to output in BER and PEM format.
1509 [Steve Henson]
1510
1511 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
1512 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
1513 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
1514 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
1515 -macopt options to dgst utility.
1516 [Steve Henson]
1517
1518 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
1519 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
1520 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
1521 utility.
1522 [Steve Henson]
1523
1524 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
1525 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
1526 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
1527 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
1528 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
1529 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
1530 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
1531 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
1532 enabled again.
1533
1534 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
1535 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
1536 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
1537 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
1538
1539 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
1540 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
1541 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
1542 the default order.
1543 [Bodo Moeller]
1544
1545 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
1546 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
1547 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
1548 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
1549 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
1550 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
1551 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
1552 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
1553 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
1554
1555 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
1556 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
1557 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
1558 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
1559 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
1560 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
1561 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
1562 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
1563 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
1564 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
1565 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
1566 kinds of kludges.
1567
1568 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
1569 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
1570 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
1571
1572 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
1573 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
1574 "CAMELLIA256".
1575 [Bodo Moeller]
1576
1577 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
1578 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
1579 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
1580 [Nils Larsch]
1581
1582 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
1583 it yet and it is largely untested.
1584 [Steve Henson]
1585
1586 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
1587 [Nils Larsch]
1588
1589 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
1590 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
1591 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
1592 [Steve Henson]
1593
1594 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
1595 [Andy Polyakov]
1596
1597 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
1598 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
1599 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
1600 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
1601 [Steve Henson]
1602
1603 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
1604 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
1605 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
1606 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
1607 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
1608 [Steve Henson]
1609
1610 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
1611 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
1612 [Cryptocom]
1613
1614 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
1615 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
1616 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
1617 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
1618 [Steve Henson]
1619
1620 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
1621 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
1622 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
1623 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
1624 [Steve Henson]
1625
1626 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
1627 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
1628 [Steve Henson]
1629
1630 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
1631 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
1632 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
1633 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
1637 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
1638 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
1639 [Steve Henson]
1640
1641 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
1642 utility.
1643 [Steve Henson]
1644
1645 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
1646 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
1647 [Steve Henson]
1648
1649 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
1650 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
1651 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
1652 if necessary.
1653 [Steve Henson]
1654
1655 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
1656 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
1657 to free up any added signature OIDs.
1658 [Steve Henson]
1659
1660 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
1661 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
1662 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
1663 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
1664 [Steve Henson]
1665
1666 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
1667 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
1668 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
1669 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
1670 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
1671 the array representation useful in a more general context.
1672 [Douglas Stebila]
1673
1674 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
1675 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
1676 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
1677 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
1678 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
1679
1680 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
1681 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
1682 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
1683 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
1684 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
1685 protocol).
1686
1687 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
1688 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
1689 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
1690 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
1691
1692 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
1693 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
1694 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
1695 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
1696 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
1697
1698 aECDH - ECDH cert
1699 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
1700 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
1701
1702 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
1703 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
1704
1705 [Bodo Moeller]
1706
1707 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
1708 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
1709 [Steve Henson]
1710
1711 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
1712 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
1713 [Steve Henson]
1714
1715 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
1716 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
1717 functional reference processing.
1718 [Steve Henson]
1719
1720 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
1721 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
1722 process.
1723 [Steve Henson]
1724
1725 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
1726 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
1727 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
1728 [Steve Henson]
1729
1730 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
1731 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
1732 application to support multiple signers.
1733 [Steve Henson]
1734
1735 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
1736 digest MAC.
1737 [Steve Henson]
1738
1739 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
1740 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
1741 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
1742 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
1743 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
1746 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
1747 new API.
1748 [Steve Henson]
1749
1750 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
1751 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
1752 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
1753 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
1754 a no op.
1755 [Steve Henson]
1756
1757 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
1758 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
1759 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
1760 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
1761 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
1762 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
1763 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
1764 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
1765 [Steve Henson]
1766
1767 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
1768 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
1769 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
1770 between digests and public key types.
1771 [Steve Henson]
1772
1773 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
1774 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
1775 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
1776 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
1777 [Steve Henson]
1778
1779 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
1780 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
1781 key ASN1 method.
1782 [Steve Henson]
1783
1784 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
1785 [Steve Henson]
1786
1787 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
1788 pkeyutl.
1789 [Steve Henson]
1790
1791 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
1792 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
1793 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
1794 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
1795 pkey, genpkey.
1796 [Steve Henson]
1797
1798 *) BeOS support.
1799 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1800
1801 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
1802 manual pages.
1803 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
1804
1805 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
1806 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
1807 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
1808 functionality for RSA.
1809 [Steve Henson]
1810
1811 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
1812 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
1813 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
1814 [Steve Henson]
1815
1816 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
1817 key API, doesn't do much yet.
1818 [Steve Henson]
1819
1820 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
1821 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
1822 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
1823 [Steve Henson]
1824
1825 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
1826 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1827 [Douglas Stebila]
1828
1829 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
1830 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
1831 [Steve Henson]
1832
1833 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
1834 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
1835 type.
1836 [Steve Henson]
1837
1838 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
1839 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
1840 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
1841 structure.
1842 [Steve Henson]
1843
1844 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
1845 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
1846 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
1847 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
1848 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
1849 of public and private key structures.
1850 [Steve Henson]
1851
1852 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
1853 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
1854 [Douglas Stebila]
1855
1856 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
1857 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
1858 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
1859
1860 New ciphersuites:
1861 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
1862 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
1863
1864 New functions:
1865 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
1866 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
1867 SSL_get_psk_identity
1868 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
1869
1870 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
1871
1872 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
1873 and response verification functionality.
1874 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
1875
1876 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
1877 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
1878 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
1879 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
1880 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
1881 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
1882 server_name extension.
1883
1884 New functions (subject to change):
1885
1886 SSL_get_servername()
1887 SSL_get_servername_type()
1888 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
1889
1890 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
1891
1892 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
1893 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1894 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1895 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1896 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1897
1898 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1899
1900 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1901 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1902 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1903 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1904 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1905 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1906 option.
1907
1908 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
1909
1910 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
1911 [Andy Polyakov]
1912
1913 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
1914 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
1915 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
1916 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
1917 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
1918 [Andy Polyakov]
1919
1920 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
1921 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
1922 macro.
1923 [Bodo Moeller]
1924
1925 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
1926 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
1927 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
1928 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
1929 [Andy Polyakov]
1930
1931 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
1932 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
1933 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
1934 using the maximum available value.
1935 [Steve Henson]
1936
1937 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
1938 in addition to the text details.
1939 [Bodo Moeller]
1940
1941 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
1942 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
1943 handle several customised structures at all.
1944 [Steve Henson]
1945
1946 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
1947 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
1948 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
1949 [Steve Henson]
1950
1951 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
1952 [Steve Henson]
1953
1954 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
1955 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
1956 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
1957 [Steve Henson]
1958
1959 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
1960 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
1961 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
1962 [Nils Larsch]
1963
1964 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
1965 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
1966 all fields.
1967 [Steve Henson]
1968
1969 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
1970 [Steve Henson]
1971
1972 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
1973 [NTT]
1974
1975 Changes between 0.9.8x and 0.9.8y [5 Feb 2013]
1976
1977 *) Make the decoding of SSLv3, TLS and DTLS CBC records constant time.
1978
1979 This addresses the flaw in CBC record processing discovered by
1980 Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson. Details of this attack can be found
1981 at: http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/tls/
1982
1983 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
1984 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
1985 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and Adam Langley and
1986 Emilia Käsper for the initial patch.
1987 (CVE-2013-0169)
1988 [Emilia Käsper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie, Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
1989
1990 *) Return an error when checking OCSP signatures when key is NULL.
1991 This fixes a DoS attack. (CVE-2013-0166)
1992 [Steve Henson]
1993
1994 *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
1995 the right response is stapled. Also change SSL_get_certificate()
1996 so it returns the certificate actually sent.
1997 See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
1998 (This is a backport)
1999 [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
2000
2001 *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
2002 [Steve Henson]
2003
2004 Changes between 0.9.8w and 0.9.8x [10 May 2012]
2005
2006 *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in DTLS
2007 to fix DoS attack.
2008
2009 Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
2010 fuzzing as a service testing platform.
2011 (CVE-2012-2333)
2012 [Steve Henson]
2013
2014 *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
2015 Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
2016 [Steve Henson]
2017
2018 Changes between 0.9.8v and 0.9.8w [23 Apr 2012]
2019
2020 *) The fix for CVE-2012-2110 did not take into account that the
2021 'len' argument to BUF_MEM_grow and BUF_MEM_grow_clean is an
2022 int in OpenSSL 0.9.8, making it still vulnerable. Fix by
2023 rejecting negative len parameter. (CVE-2012-2131)
2024 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2025
2026 Changes between 0.9.8u and 0.9.8v [19 Apr 2012]
2027
2028 *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
2029 BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
2030 in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
2031
2032 Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
2033 issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
2034 (CVE-2012-2110)
2035 [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
2036
2037 Changes between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8u [12 Mar 2012]
2038
2039 *) Fix MMA (Bleichenbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA padding) weakness
2040 in CMS and PKCS7 code. When RSA decryption fails use a random key for
2041 content decryption and always return the same error. Note: this attack
2042 needs on average 2^20 messages so it only affects automated senders. The
2043 old behaviour can be reenabled in the CMS code by setting the
2044 CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag: this is useful for debugging and testing where
2045 an MMA defence is not necessary.
2046 Thanks to Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering
2047 this issue. (CVE-2012-0884)
2048 [Steve Henson]
2049
2050 *) Fix CVE-2011-4619: make sure we really are receiving a
2051 client hello before rejecting multiple SGC restarts. Thanks to
2052 Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com> for discovering this bug.
2053 [Steve Henson]
2054
2055 Changes between 0.9.8s and 0.9.8t [18 Jan 2012]
2056
2057 *) Fix for DTLS DoS issue introduced by fix for CVE-2011-4109.
2058 Thanks to Antonio Martin, Enterprise Secure Access Research and
2059 Development, Cisco Systems, Inc. for discovering this bug and
2060 preparing a fix. (CVE-2012-0050)
2061 [Antonio Martin]
2062
2063 Changes between 0.9.8r and 0.9.8s [4 Jan 2012]
2064
2065 *) Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson have discovered an extension
2066 of the Vaudenay padding oracle attack on CBC mode encryption
2067 which enables an efficient plaintext recovery attack against
2068 the OpenSSL implementation of DTLS. Their attack exploits timing
2069 differences arising during decryption processing. A research
2070 paper describing this attack can be found at:
2071 http://www.isg.rhul.ac.uk/~kp/dtls.pdf
2072 Thanks go to Nadhem Alfardan and Kenny Paterson of the Information
2073 Security Group at Royal Holloway, University of London
2074 (www.isg.rhul.ac.uk) for discovering this flaw and to Robin Seggelmann
2075 <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de> and Michael Tuexen <tuexen@fh-muenster.de>
2076 for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4108)
2077 [Robin Seggelmann, Michael Tuexen]
2078
2079 *) Stop policy check failure freeing same buffer twice. (CVE-2011-4109)
2080 [Ben Laurie, Kasper <ekasper@google.com>]
2081
2082 *) Clear bytes used for block padding of SSL 3.0 records.
2083 (CVE-2011-4576)
2084 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2085
2086 *) Only allow one SGC handshake restart for SSL/TLS. Thanks to George
2087 Kadianakis <desnacked@gmail.com> for discovering this issue and
2088 Adam Langley for preparing the fix. (CVE-2011-4619)
2089 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2090
2091 *) Prevent malformed RFC3779 data triggering an assertion failure.
2092 Thanks to Andrew Chi, BBN Technologies, for discovering the flaw
2093 and Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net> for fixing it. (CVE-2011-4577)
2094 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2095
2096 *) Fix ssl_ciph.c set-up race.
2097 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2098
2099 *) Fix spurious failures in ecdsatest.c.
2100 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2101
2102 *) Fix the BIO_f_buffer() implementation (which was mixing different
2103 interpretations of the '..._len' fields).
2104 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2105
2106 *) Fix handling of BN_BLINDING: now BN_BLINDING_invert_ex (rather than
2107 BN_BLINDING_invert_ex) calls BN_BLINDING_update, ensuring that concurrent
2108 threads won't reuse the same blinding coefficients.
2109
2110 This also avoids the need to obtain the CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA_BLINDING
2111 lock to call BN_BLINDING_invert_ex, and avoids one use of
2112 BN_BLINDING_update for each BN_BLINDING structure (previously,
2113 the last update always remained unused).
2114 [Emilia Käsper (Google)]
2115
2116 *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
2117 for multi-threaded use of ECDH.
2118 [Adam Langley (Google)]
2119
2120 *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
2121 [Bodo Moeller]
2122
2123 *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
2124 by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
2125
2126 http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
2127
2128 [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
2129
2130 Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
2131
2132 *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
2133 [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2134
2135 *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
2136 escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
2137 ambiguous.
2138 [Steve Henson]
2139
2140 Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
2141
2142 *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
2143 and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
2144 Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
2145 [Steve Henson]
2146
2147 *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
2148 Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
2149 Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
2150 [Ben Laurie]
2151
2152 Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
2153
2154 *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
2155 overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
2156 be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
2157 [Steve Henson]
2158
2159 *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
2160 [Steve Henson]
2161
2162 *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
2163 the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
2164 some broken encodings work correctly.
2165 [Steve Henson]
2166
2167 *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
2168 is also one of the inputs.
2169 [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
2170
2171 *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
2172 Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
2173 after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
2174 etc are non-op.
2175 [Steve Henson]
2176
2177 Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
2178
2179 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
2180 OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
2181
2182 *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
2183 access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
2184 [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
2185
2186 *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
2187 common in certificates and some applications which only call
2188 SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
2189 [Steve Henson]
2190
2191 *) VMS fixes:
2192 Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
2193 Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
2194 Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
2195 [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
2196
2197 Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
2198
2199 *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
2200 update s->server with a new major version number. As of
2201 - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
2202 - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
2203 the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
2204 receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
2205 protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
2206 [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
2207
2208 *) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
2209 could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
2210 [Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
2211
2212 Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
2213
2214 *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
2215 [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
2216
2217 *) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
2218 accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
2219 [Bodo Moeller]
2220
2221 *) On some versions of WIN32 Heap32Next is very slow. This can cause
2222 excessive delays in the RAND_poll(): over a minute. As a workaround
2223 include a time check in the inner Heap32Next loop too.
2224 [Steve Henson]
2225
2226 *) The code that handled flushing of data in SSL/TLS originally used the
2227 BIO_CTRL_INFO ctrl to see if any data was pending first. This caused
2228 the problem outlined in PR#1949. The fix suggested there however can
2229 trigger problems with buggy BIO_CTRL_WPENDING (e.g. some versions
2230 of Apache). So instead simplify the code to flush unconditionally.
2231 This should be fine since flushing with no data to flush is a no op.
2232 [Steve Henson]
2233
2234 *) Handle TLS versions 2.0 and later properly and correctly use the
2235 highest version of TLS/SSL supported. Although TLS >= 2.0 is some way
2236 off ancient servers have a habit of sticking around for a while...
2237 [Steve Henson]
2238
2239 *) Modify compression code so it frees up structures without using the
2240 ex_data callbacks. This works around a problem where some applications
2241 call CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data() before application exit (e.g. when
2242 restarting) then use compression (e.g. SSL with compression) later.
2243 This results in significant per-connection memory leaks and
2244 has caused some security issues including CVE-2008-1678 and
2245 CVE-2009-4355.
2246 [Steve Henson]
2247
2248 *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
2249 change when encrypting or decrypting.
2250 [Bodo Moeller]
2251
2252 *) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
2253 connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
2254 Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
2255 [Steve Henson]
2256
2257 *) Add "missing" ssl ctrls to clear options and mode.
2258 [Steve Henson]
2259
2260 *) If client attempts to renegotiate and doesn't support RI respond with
2261 a no_renegotiation alert as required by RFC5746. Some renegotiating
2262 TLS clients will continue a connection gracefully when they receive
2263 the alert. Unfortunately OpenSSL mishandled this alert and would hang
2264 waiting for a server hello which it will never receive. Now we treat a
2265 received no_renegotiation alert as a fatal error. This is because
2266 applications requesting a renegotiation might well expect it to succeed
2267 and would have no code in place to handle the server denying it so the
2268 only safe thing to do is to terminate the connection.
2269 [Steve Henson]
2270
2271 *) Add ctrl macro SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() which returns 1 if
2272 peer supports secure renegotiation and 0 otherwise. Print out peer
2273 renegotiation support in s_client/s_server.
2274 [Steve Henson]
2275
2276 *) Replace the highly broken and deprecated SPKAC certification method with
2277 the updated NID creation version. This should correctly handle UTF8.
2278 [Steve Henson]
2279
2280 *) Implement RFC5746. Re-enable renegotiation but require the extension
2281 as needed. Unfortunately, SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION
2282 turns out to be a bad idea. It has been replaced by
2283 SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION which can be set with
2284 SSL_CTX_set_options(). This is really not recommended unless you
2285 know what you are doing.
2286 [Eric Rescorla <ekr@networkresonance.com>, Ben Laurie, Steve Henson]
2287
2288 *) Fixes to stateless session resumption handling. Use initial_ctx when
2289 issuing and attempting to decrypt tickets in case it has changed during
2290 servername handling. Use a non-zero length session ID when attempting
2291 stateless session resumption: this makes it possible to determine if
2292 a resumption has occurred immediately after receiving server hello
2293 (several places in OpenSSL subtly assume this) instead of later in
2294 the handshake.
2295 [Steve Henson]
2296
2297 *) The functions ENGINE_ctrl(), OPENSSL_isservice(),
2298 CMS_get1_RecipientRequest() and RAND_bytes() can return <=0 on error
2299 fixes for a few places where the return code is not checked
2300 correctly.
2301 [Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>]
2302
2303 *) Add --strict-warnings option to Configure script to include devteam
2304 warnings in other configurations.
2305 [Steve Henson]
2306
2307 *) Add support for --libdir option and LIBDIR variable in makefiles. This
2308 makes it possible to install openssl libraries in locations which
2309 have names other than "lib", for example "/usr/lib64" which some
2310 systems need.
2311 [Steve Henson, based on patch from Jeremy Utley]
2312
2313 *) Don't allow the use of leading 0x80 in OIDs. This is a violation of
2314 X690 8.9.12 and can produce some misleading textual output of OIDs.
2315 [Steve Henson, reported by Dan Kaminsky]
2316
2317 *) Delete MD2 from algorithm tables. This follows the recommendation in
2318 several standards that it is not used in new applications due to
2319 several cryptographic weaknesses. For binary compatibility reasons
2320 the MD2 API is still compiled in by default.
2321 [Steve Henson]
2322
2323 *) Add compression id to {d2i,i2d}_SSL_SESSION so it is correctly saved
2324 and restored.
2325 [Steve Henson]
2326
2327 *) Rename uni2asc and asc2uni functions to OPENSSL_uni2asc and
2328 OPENSSL_asc2uni conditionally on Netware platforms to avoid a name
2329 clash.
2330 [Guenter <lists@gknw.net>]
2331
2332 *) Fix the server certificate chain building code to use X509_verify_cert(),
2333 it used to have an ad-hoc builder which was unable to cope with anything
2334 other than a simple chain.
2335 [David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>, Steve Henson]
2336
2337 *) Don't check self signed certificate signatures in X509_verify_cert()
2338 by default (a flag can override this): it just wastes time without
2339 adding any security. As a useful side effect self signed root CAs
2340 with non-FIPS digests are now usable in FIPS mode.
2341 [Steve Henson]
2342
2343 *) In dtls1_process_out_of_seq_message() the check if the current message
2344 is already buffered was missing. For every new message was memory
2345 allocated, allowing an attacker to perform an denial of service attack
2346 with sending out of seq handshake messages until there is no memory
2347 left. Additionally every future messege was buffered, even if the
2348 sequence number made no sense and would be part of another handshake.
2349 So only messages with sequence numbers less than 10 in advance will be
2350 buffered. (CVE-2009-1378)
2351 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2352
2353 *) Records are buffered if they arrive with a future epoch to be
2354 processed after finishing the corresponding handshake. There is
2355 currently no limitation to this buffer allowing an attacker to perform
2356 a DOS attack with sending records with future epochs until there is no
2357 memory left. This patch adds the pqueue_size() function to detemine
2358 the size of a buffer and limits the record buffer to 100 entries.
2359 (CVE-2009-1377)
2360 [Robin Seggelmann, discovered by Daniel Mentz]
2361
2362 *) Keep a copy of frag->msg_header.frag_len so it can be used after the
2363 parent structure is freed. (CVE-2009-1379)
2364 [Daniel Mentz]
2365
2366 *) Handle non-blocking I/O properly in SSL_shutdown() call.
2367 [Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists@netbauds.net>]
2368
2369 *) Add 2.5.4.* OIDs
2370 [Ilya O. <vrghost@gmail.com>]
2371
2372 Changes between 0.9.8k and 0.9.8l [5 Nov 2009]
2373
2374 *) Disable renegotiation completely - this fixes a severe security
2375 problem (CVE-2009-3555) at the cost of breaking all
2376 renegotiation. Renegotiation can be re-enabled by setting
2377 SSL3_FLAGS_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION in s3->flags at
2378 run-time. This is really not recommended unless you know what
2379 you're doing.
2380 [Ben Laurie]
2381
2382 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.8k [25 Mar 2009]
2383
2384 *) Don't set val to NULL when freeing up structures, it is freed up by
2385 underlying code. If sizeof(void *) > sizeof(long) this can result in
2386 zeroing past the valid field. (CVE-2009-0789)
2387 [Paolo Ganci <Paolo.Ganci@AdNovum.CH>]
2388
2389 *) Fix bug where return value of CMS_SignerInfo_verify_content() was not
2390 checked correctly. This would allow some invalid signed attributes to
2391 appear to verify correctly. (CVE-2009-0591)
2392 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2393
2394 *) Reject UniversalString and BMPString types with invalid lengths. This
2395 prevents a crash in ASN1_STRING_print_ex() which assumes the strings have
2396 a legal length. (CVE-2009-0590)
2397 [Steve Henson]
2398
2399 *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it
2400 unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
2401 level.
2402 [Steve Henson]
2403
2404 *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
2405 to handle some structures.
2406 [Steve Henson]
2407
2408 *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
2409 for a '\n'
2410 [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]
2411
2412 *) New -hex option for openssl rand.
2413 [Matthieu Herrb]
2414
2415 *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
2416 [Steve Henson]
2417
2418 *) Support NumericString type for name components.
2419 [Steve Henson]
2420
2421 *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
2422 compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
2423 chosen compiler.
2424 [Ben Laurie]
2425
2426 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [07 Jan 2009]
2427
2428 *) Properly check EVP_VerifyFinal() and similar return values
2429 (CVE-2008-5077).
2430 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller, Google Security Team]
2431
2432 *) Enable TLS extensions by default.
2433 [Ben Laurie]
2434
2435 *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
2436 multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
2437 obligation to set up the dynamic locking callbacks.)
2438 [Sander Temme <sander@temme.net>]
2439
2440 *) Use correct exit code if there is an error in dgst command.
2441 [Steve Henson; problem pointed out by Roland Dirlewanger]
2442
2443 *) Tweak Configure so that you need to say "experimental-jpake" to enable
2444 JPAKE, and need to use -DOPENSSL_EXPERIMENTAL_JPAKE in applications.
2445 [Bodo Moeller]
2446
2447 *) Add experimental JPAKE support, including demo authentication in
2448 s_client and s_server.
2449 [Ben Laurie]
2450
2451 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
2452 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
2453
2454 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
2455 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
2456
2457 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
2458 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
2459 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
2460 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
2461 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
2462 [Bodo Moeller]
2463
2464 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
2465
2466 *) Fix NULL pointer dereference if a DTLS server received
2467 ChangeCipherSpec as first record (CVE-2009-1386).
2468 [PR #1679]
2469
2470 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
2471 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
2472 [Nagendra Modadugu]
2473
2474 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
2475 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
2476 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
2477 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
2478
2479 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
2480 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
2481
2482 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
2483
2484 *) Various precautionary measures:
2485
2486 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
2487
2488 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
2489 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
2490 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
2491
2492 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
2493 outside the expected range.
2494
2495 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
2496 builds.
2497
2498 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
2499
2500 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
2501 the load fails. Useful for distros.
2502 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
2503
2504 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
2505 [Steve Henson]
2506
2507 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
2508 [Huang Ying]
2509
2510 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
2511
2512 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2513 [Steve Henson]
2514
2515 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
2516 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
2517 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
2518
2519 This work was sponsored by Logica.
2520 [Steve Henson]
2521
2522 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
2523 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
2524 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
2525 files.
2526 [Steve Henson]
2527
2528 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
2529
2530 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
2531 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
2532 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
2533 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
2534
2535 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
2536 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
2537 [Joe Orton]
2538
2539 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
2540
2541 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
2542 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
2543 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
2544
2545 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
2546
2547 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
2548 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
2549 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
2550 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
2551 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2552
2553 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
2554 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
2555 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
2556 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
2557 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
2558 invalid read after the end of 'db').
2559 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
2560
2561 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
2562
2563 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
2564 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
2565 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
2566 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
2567 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
2568
2569 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
2570 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
2571
2572 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
2573 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
2574 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
2575 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
2576 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
2577
2578 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
2579
2580 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
2581 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
2582 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
2583 sets may exist with different names.
2584 [Steve Henson]
2585
2586 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
2587 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
2588 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
2589 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
2590 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
2591 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
2592 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
2593 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
2594 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
2595 implementation.
2596 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
2597
2598 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
2599 implemention in the following ways:
2600
2601 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
2602 hard coded.
2603
2604 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
2605 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
2606 ignored for embedded content.
2607
2608 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
2609 with the enable-cms configuration option.
2610 [Steve Henson]
2611
2612 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
2613 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
2614 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
2615 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
2616
2617 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
2618 uncompresses any data passed through it.
2619 [Steve Henson]
2620
2621 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
2622 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
2623 [Steve Henson]
2624
2625 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
2626 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
2627 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
2628 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
2629 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
2630 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
2631 data.
2632 [Steve Henson]
2633
2634 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
2635 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
2636 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
2637
2638 *) Netware support:
2639
2640 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
2641 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
2642 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
2643 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
2644 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
2645 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
2646 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
2647 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
2648 platform
2649 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
2650 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
2651 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
2652 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
2653 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
2654 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
2655 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
2656
2657 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
2658 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
2659 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
2660 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
2661 to s_client and s_server.
2662 [Steve Henson]
2663
2664 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
2665
2666 *) Fix various bugs:
2667 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
2668 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
2669 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
2670 + Fix ia64 assembler code
2671 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
2672
2673 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
2674
2675 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
2676 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
2677 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
2678 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
2679 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
2680 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
2681 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
2682 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
2683 [Andy Polyakov]
2684
2685 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
2686 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
2687 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
2688 Steve Henson]
2689
2690 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
2691 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
2692 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
2693 supported.
2694
2695 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
2696 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
2697 SSL_SESSION.
2698
2699 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
2700 protection in servers so again support should be possible
2701 with no application modification.
2702
2703 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
2704 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
2705
2706 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
2707 or server extensions to be examined.
2708
2709 This work was sponsored by Google.
2710 [Steve Henson]
2711
2712 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
2713 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
2714 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
2715 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
2716 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
2717 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
2718 server_name extension.
2719
2720 New functions (subject to change):
2721
2722 SSL_get_servername()
2723 SSL_get_servername_type()
2724 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
2725
2726 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
2727
2728 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
2729 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
2730 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
2731 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
2732 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
2733
2734 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
2735
2736 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
2737 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
2738 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
2739 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
2740 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
2741 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
2742 option.
2743
2744 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
2745
2746 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
2747 [Steve Henson]
2748
2749 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
2750 [Andy Polyakov]
2751
2752 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
2753 (which previously caused an internal error).
2754 [Bodo Moeller]
2755
2756 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
2757 [Ben Laurie]
2758
2759 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
2760 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
2761
2762 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
2763 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
2764 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
2765
2766 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
2767 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
2768 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
2769 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
2770
2771 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2772 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2773 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
2774 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
2775
2776 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
2777 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
2778 information. For detailed background information, see
2779 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
2780 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
2781 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
2782 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
2783 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
2784 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
2785 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
2786 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
2787 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
2788 remove a conditional branch.
2789
2790 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
2791 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
2792 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
2793 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
2794 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
2795 remains as a deprecated alias.
2796
2797 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
2798 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
2799 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
2800 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
2801
2802 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
2803 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
2804 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
2805 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
2806 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
2807 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
2808 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
2809 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
2810
2811 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
2812
2813 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2814 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2815 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2816 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2817 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2818 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2819 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2820 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2821 in a different context.
2822 [Bodo Moeller]
2823
2824 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2825 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2826 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2827 [Bodo Moeller]
2828
2829 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
2830 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
2831 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
2832
2833 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
2834
2835 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
2836 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
2837 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2838 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
2839 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
2840 [Victor Duchovni]
2841
2842 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
2843 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
2844 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
2845 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
2846 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
2847 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
2848 [Bodo Moeller]
2849
2850 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2851 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2852 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2853 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2854 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2855 [Bodo Moeller]
2856
2857 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
2858 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
2859
2860 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2861 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2862 Improve header file function name parsing.
2863 [Steve Henson]
2864
2865 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
2866 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
2867 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
2868
2869 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
2870
2871 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2872 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2873 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2874
2875 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2876 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2877
2878 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2879 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2880
2881 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2882 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2883 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2884
2885 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
2886 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
2887 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
2888 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
2889 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
2890 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
2891 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
2892 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
2893 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
2894
2895 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
2896 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
2897 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
2898 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
2899 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
2900
2901 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
2902 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
2903 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
2904 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
2905 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
2906 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
2907 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
2908 multiple values to extend the available space.
2909
2910 [Bodo Moeller]
2911
2912 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
2913
2914 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2915 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2916
2917 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
2918 [Ben Laurie]
2919
2920 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2921 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2922 undesirable limitations.
2923 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2924
2925 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
2926 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
2927 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
2928 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
2929 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
2930 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
2931 to avoid potential handshake problems.
2932 [Bodo Moeller]
2933
2934 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2935
2936 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2937 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2938 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2939
2940 The latter two were purportedly from
2941 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2942 appear there.
2943
2944 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
2945 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2946 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2947 [Bodo Moeller]
2948
2949 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2950 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2951 [Bodo Moeller]
2952
2953 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
2954 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
2955 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
2956 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
2957
2958 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
2959 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
2960 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
2961 [NTT]
2962
2963 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
2964 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
2965 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
2966 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
2967 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
2968 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
2969 [Steve Henson]
2970
2971 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
2972
2973 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
2974 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
2975 [Steve Henson]
2976
2977 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
2978 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
2979
2980 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
2981 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
2982 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
2983 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
2984 [Douglas Stebila]
2985
2986 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
2987 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
2988 [Steve Henson]
2989
2990 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
2991 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
2992 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
2993 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
2994 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
2995 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
2996 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
2997 can't be loaded.
2998 [Steve Henson]
2999
3000 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
3001 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
3002 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
3003 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
3004 [Steve Henson]
3005
3006 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
3007 under VC++ build system.
3008 [Steve Henson]
3009
3010 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
3011 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
3012 [Richard Levitte]
3013
3014 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
3015
3016 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3017 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3018 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3019 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3020 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3021
3022 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
3023 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
3024 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
3025
3026 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
3027 [Steve Henson]
3028
3029 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
3030 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3031 [Nils Larsch]
3032
3033 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
3034 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
3035
3036 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
3037 [Nick Mathewson]
3038
3039 *) Extended Windows CE support.
3040 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
3041
3042 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
3043 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
3044 [Steve Henson]
3045
3046 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
3047 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
3048 smime utility.
3049 [Steve Henson]
3050
3051 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
3052
3053 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
3054 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
3055
3056 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
3057 [Richard Levitte]
3058
3059 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
3060 key into the same file any more.
3061 [Richard Levitte]
3062
3063 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
3064 [Andy Polyakov]
3065
3066 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
3067 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
3068
3069 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
3070 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
3071 [Richard Levitte]
3072
3073 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
3074 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
3075 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
3076 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
3077 this only applies when building 'shared'.
3078 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
3079
3080 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
3081 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
3082 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
3083 [Steve Henson]
3084
3085 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
3086 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
3087 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
3088 - add new function for parameter creation
3089 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
3090 BN_BLINDING parameters
3091 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
3092 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
3093 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
3094 threads.
3095 [Nils Larsch]
3096
3097 *) Add support for DTLS.
3098 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
3099
3100 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
3101 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
3102 [Walter Goulet]
3103
3104 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
3105 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
3106 [Nils Larsch]
3107
3108 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
3109 the apps/openssl applications.
3110 [Nils Larsch]
3111
3112 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
3113 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
3114 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
3115 [Ben Laurie]
3116
3117 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
3118 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
3119
3120 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
3121 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
3122
3123 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
3124 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
3125 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
3126 avoid this algorithm.)
3127
3128 [Bodo Moeller]
3129
3130 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
3131 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
3132 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
3133 [Richard Levitte]
3134
3135 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
3136 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
3137 [Andy Polyakov]
3138
3139 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
3140 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
3141 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
3142 pod file:
3143
3144 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
3145
3146 The blank line is mandatory.
3147
3148 [Steve Henson]
3149
3150 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
3151 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
3152 sources.
3153 [Steve Henson]
3154
3155 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
3156 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
3157
3158 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
3159 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
3160 to support policy checking and print out.
3161 [Steve Henson]
3162
3163 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
3164 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
3165 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
3166 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
3167
3168 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
3169 [Geoff Thorpe]
3170
3171 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
3172 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
3173
3174 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
3175 implementation contributed by IBM.
3176 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
3177
3178 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
3179 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
3180 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
3181 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
3182
3183 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
3184 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
3185
3186 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
3187 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
3188 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
3189 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
3190 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
3191 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
3192 [Steve Henson]
3193
3194 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
3195 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
3196 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
3197 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
3198 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
3199 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
3200 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
3201 [Geoff Thorpe]
3202
3203 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
3204 [Steve Henson]
3205
3206 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
3207 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
3208 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
3209 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
3210 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
3211 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
3212 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
3213 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
3214 [Steve Henson]
3215
3216 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
3217 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
3218 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
3219 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
3220 [Steve Henson]
3221
3222 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
3223 syntax:
3224
3225 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
3226 [Steve Henson]
3227
3228 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
3229 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
3230 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
3231 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
3232 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
3233 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
3234 BN_CTX's "bundling".
3235 [Geoff Thorpe]
3236
3237 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
3238 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
3239 [Geoff Thorpe]
3240
3241 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
3242 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
3243 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
3244 [Steve Henson]
3245
3246 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
3247 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
3248 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
3249 below).
3250 [Geoff Thorpe]
3251
3252 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
3253 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
3254 [Richard Levitte]
3255
3256 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
3257 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
3258 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
3259 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
3260 [Geoff Thorpe]
3261
3262 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
3263 initialised value as BN_new().
3264 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
3265
3266 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
3267 [Steve Henson]
3268
3269 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
3270 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
3271 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
3272 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
3273 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
3274 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
3275 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
3276 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
3277 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
3278 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
3279 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
3280 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
3281 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
3282 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
3283 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
3284
3285 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
3286 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
3287 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
3288 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
3289 [Geoff Thorpe]
3290
3291 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
3292 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
3293 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
3294 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
3295 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
3296 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
3297 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
3298 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
3299 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
3300 [Geoff Thorpe]
3301
3302 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
3303 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
3304 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
3305 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
3306 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
3307 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
3308 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
3309 [Geoff Thorpe]
3310
3311 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
3312 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
3313 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
3314 these have been updated also.
3315 [Geoff Thorpe]
3316
3317 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
3318 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
3319 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
3320 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
3321 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
3322 functions.
3323 [Steve Henson]
3324
3325 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
3326 structure of type "other".
3327 [Steve Henson]
3328
3329 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
3330 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
3331 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
3332 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
3333 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
3334 situation in the script.
3335 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
3336
3337 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
3338 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
3339 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
3340 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
3341 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
3342 used as premaster secret.
3343 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3344
3345 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
3346 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
3347 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3348
3349 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
3350 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
3351
3352 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
3353 control of the error stack.
3354 [Richard Levitte]
3355
3356 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
3357 [Richard Levitte]
3358
3359 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
3360 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
3361 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
3362 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
3363 [Richard Levitte]
3364
3365 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
3366 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
3367 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
3368 [Richard Levitte]
3369
3370 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
3371 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
3372 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
3373 a memory area.
3374 [Richard Levitte]
3375
3376 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
3377 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
3378 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
3379 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
3380 [Richard Levitte]
3381
3382 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
3383 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
3384 the following flags are defined:
3385
3386 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
3387 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3388 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
3389 number.
3390
3391 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
3392 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
3393 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
3394 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
3395 returns zero.
3396 [Richard Levitte]
3397
3398 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
3399 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
3400 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
3401 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
3402 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
3403 [Richard Levitte]
3404
3405 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
3406 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
3407 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
3408 [Richard Levitte]
3409
3410 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
3411 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
3412 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
3413 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
3414 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
3415 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
3416 [Richard Levitte]
3417
3418 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
3419 req and dirName.
3420 [Steve Henson]
3421
3422 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
3423 [Steve Henson]
3424
3425 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
3426 [Steve Henson]
3427
3428 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
3429 [Steve Henson]
3430
3431 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
3432 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
3433 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
3434 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
3435 default implementation more easily.
3436 [Geoff Thorpe]
3437
3438 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
3439 in config files.
3440 [Steve Henson]
3441
3442 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
3443 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
3444 [Richard Levitte]
3445
3446 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
3447 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
3448 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
3449 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
3450
3451 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
3452 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
3453 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
3454 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
3455 [Steve Henson]
3456
3457 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
3458 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
3459 to do it.
3460 [Richard Levitte]
3461
3462 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
3463 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
3464 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
3465 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
3466 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
3467 scalar * generator).
3468 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
3469
3470 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
3471 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
3472 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
3473 correctly.
3474 [Steve Henson]
3475
3476 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
3477 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
3478 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
3479 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
3480 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
3481 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
3482 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
3483 linker additions, eg;
3484 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
3485 [Geoff Thorpe]
3486
3487 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
3488 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
3489 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
3490 [Geoff Thorpe]
3491
3492 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
3493 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
3494 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
3495 via PR#459)
3496 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3497
3498 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
3499 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
3500 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
3501 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
3502 [Geoff Thorpe]
3503
3504 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
3505 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
3506 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
3507 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
3508 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
3509 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
3510 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
3511 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
3512 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
3513 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
3514
3515 Example for using the new callback interface:
3516
3517 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
3518 void *my_arg = ...;
3519 BN_GENCB my_cb;
3520
3521 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
3522
3523 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
3524 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
3525 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
3526 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
3527 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
3528 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
3529 */
3530
3531 [Geoff Thorpe]
3532
3533 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
3534 available to TLS with the number defined in
3535 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
3536 [Richard Levitte]
3537
3538 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
3539 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
3540
3541 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
3542 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3543 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
3544 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
3545
3546 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
3547 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
3548
3549 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
3550 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
3551 well.
3552 [Richard Levitte]
3553
3554 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
3555 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
3556 [Richard Levitte]
3557
3558 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
3559 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
3560 and a macro that behave like
3561 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
3562
3563 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
3564 [Nils Larsch]
3565
3566 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
3567 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
3568 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
3569 if applicable.
3570 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3571
3572 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
3573 [Bodo Moeller]
3574
3575 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
3576 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
3577 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
3578 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
3579 directory engines/.
3580 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
3581 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
3582 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
3583 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
3584 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
3585 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
3586 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
3587 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
3588
3589 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
3590 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
3591 [Richard Levitte]
3592
3593 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
3594 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
3595
3596 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
3597 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
3598 files while avoiding the low level API.
3599
3600 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
3601 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
3602 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
3603 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
3604
3605 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
3606 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
3607 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
3608 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
3609 instead of the low level API.
3610 [Steve Henson]
3611
3612 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
3613 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
3614 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
3615 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
3616 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
3617 PKCS#7 code.
3618
3619 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
3620 down to the template encoder.
3621 [Steve Henson]
3622
3623 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
3624 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
3625 [Bodo Moeller]
3626
3627 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
3628 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
3629 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
3630 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3631
3632 *) Add ECDH engine support.
3633 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3634
3635 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
3636 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3637
3638 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
3639 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
3640 [Bodo Moeller]
3641
3642 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
3643 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
3644 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
3645 [Bodo Moeller]
3646
3647 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
3648 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
3649
3650 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3651 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3652
3653 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
3654 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
3655 New EC_METHOD:
3656
3657 EC_GF2m_simple_method
3658
3659 New API functions:
3660
3661 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
3662 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
3663 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
3664 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3665 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
3666 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
3667
3668 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
3669 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
3670 enable it).
3671
3672 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
3673 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
3674 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
3675 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
3676 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
3677 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
3678 various internal method names.)
3679
3680 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
3681 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
3682
3683 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3684 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3685
3686 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
3687 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
3688
3689 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
3690 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
3691 methods are undefined.
3692
3693 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3694 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3695
3696 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
3697 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
3698 length of the modulus.
3699
3700 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3701 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3702
3703 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
3704 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
3705
3706 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3707 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3708
3709 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
3710 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
3711 used) in the following functions [macros]:
3712
3713 BN_GF2m_add
3714 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
3715 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
3716 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
3717 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
3718 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
3719 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
3720 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
3721 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
3722 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
3723
3724 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
3725 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
3726
3727 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
3728 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
3729 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
3730 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
3731 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
3732 where
3733 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
3734 This applies to the following functions:
3735
3736 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
3737 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
3738 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
3739 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
3740 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
3741 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
3742 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
3743 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
3744 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3745 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3746
3747 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
3748
3749 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
3750 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
3751
3752 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
3753
3754 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
3755 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
3756 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
3757 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
3758 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
3759
3760 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
3761 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
3762
3763 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
3764 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
3765 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
3766
3767 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
3768 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
3769
3770 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
3771 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
3772 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
3773 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
3774 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3775
3776 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
3777 functions
3778 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
3779 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
3780 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
3781 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
3782 These control ASN1 encoding details:
3783 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
3784 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
3785 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
3786 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
3787 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
3788 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
3789 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
3790
3791 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
3792 functions
3793 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
3794 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
3795 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
3796 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
3797 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3798
3799 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
3800 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
3801 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
3802 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3803
3804 *) Add functions
3805 EC_POINT_point2bn()
3806 EC_POINT_bn2point()
3807 EC_POINT_point2hex()
3808 EC_POINT_hex2point()
3809 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
3810 EC_POINT_oct2point().
3811 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3812
3813 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
3814 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
3815 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
3816 EC_GROUP_get_order()
3817 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
3818 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
3819 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
3820 adding different types of curves.
3821 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
3822
3823 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
3824 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
3825 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
3826 [Bodo Moeller]
3827
3828 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
3829 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
3830
3831 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
3832 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
3833 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
3834 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3835
3836 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
3837
3838 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
3839 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
3840
3841 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
3842 library. Most notably,
3843 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
3844 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
3845 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
3846 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
3847 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
3848 extracted before the specific public key;
3849 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
3850 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
3851
3852 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
3853 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
3854 function
3855 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
3856 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
3857 EC_get_builtin_curves().
3858 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
3859 accessed via
3860 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
3861 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
3862 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
3863
3864 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3865 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3866 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3867 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3868 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3869 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3870 differing sizes.
3871 [Richard Levitte]
3872
3873 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
3874
3875 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
3876 sensitive data.
3877 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
3878
3879 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
3880 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
3881 authentication-only ciphersuites.
3882 [Bodo Moeller]
3883
3884 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
3885 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
3886 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
3887 [Victor Duchovni]
3888
3889 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
3890 [Steve Henson]
3891
3892 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
3893 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
3894 [Steve Henson]
3895
3896 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
3897 run algorithm test programs.
3898 [Steve Henson]
3899
3900 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
3901 [Steve Henson]
3902
3903 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
3904 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
3905 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
3906 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
3907 message has informed the client about his choice.)
3908 [Bodo Moeller]
3909
3910 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
3911 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
3912 [Steve Henson]
3913
3914 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
3915
3916 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
3917 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
3918 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3919
3920 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
3921 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
3922
3923 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
3924 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3925
3926 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
3927 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
3928 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
3929
3930 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
3931 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
3932 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
3933 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
3934 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
3935 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
3936 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
3937 [Bodo Moeller]
3938
3939 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
3940
3941 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
3942 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
3943
3944 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
3945 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
3946 undesirable limitations.
3947 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
3948
3949 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
3950
3951 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
3952 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
3953 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
3954
3955 The latter two were purportedly from
3956 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
3957 appear there.
3958
3959 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
3960 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
3961 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
3962 [Bodo Moeller]
3963
3964 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
3965 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
3966 [Bodo Moeller]
3967
3968 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
3969
3970 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
3971 module in FIPS mode.
3972 [Steve Henson]
3973
3974 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
3975 [Steve Henson]
3976
3977 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
3978 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
3979 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
3980 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
3981 [Steve Henson]
3982
3983 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
3984
3985 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
3986 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
3987 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
3988 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
3989 the difference induced by this change.
3990 [Andy Polyakov]
3991
3992 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
3993
3994 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
3995 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
3996 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
3997 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
3998 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
3999
4000 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
4001 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
4002 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
4003
4004 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
4005 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
4006 [Steve Henson]
4007
4008 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
4009 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
4010 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
4011 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
4012 biased k.)
4013 [Bodo Moeller]
4014
4015 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
4016 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
4017 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
4018 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
4019 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
4020
4021 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
4022 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
4023 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
4024 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
4025 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
4026 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
4027
4028 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
4029
4030 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
4031 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
4032 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
4033 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
4034 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
4035 [Bodo Moeller]
4036
4037 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
4038 clients need.
4039 [Steve Henson]
4040
4041 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
4042 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
4043 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
4044 [Steve Henson]
4045
4046 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
4047 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
4048 structures constant.
4049 [Steve Henson]
4050
4051 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
4052
4053 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
4054 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
4055
4056 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
4057 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
4058 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
4059 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
4060 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
4061 some needed definitions.
4062 [Steve Henson]
4063
4064 *) Undo Cygwin change.
4065 [Ulf Möller]
4066
4067 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
4068 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
4069 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
4070 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
4071 [Richard Levitte]
4072
4073 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
4074
4075 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
4076 server and client random values. Previously
4077 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
4078 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
4079
4080 This change has negligible security impact because:
4081
4082 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
4083 data.
4084
4085 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
4086 handshake.
4087
4088 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
4089 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
4090 values.
4091
4092 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
4093 to our attention.
4094
4095 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
4096
4097 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
4098 [Ulf Möller]
4099
4100 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
4101 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
4102 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
4103
4104 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
4105 [Steve Henson]
4106
4107 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
4108 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
4109 [Andy Polyakov]
4110
4111 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
4112 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
4113 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
4114
4115 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
4116 [Steve Henson]
4117
4118 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
4119 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
4120 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
4121 certificates.
4122 [Steve Henson]
4123
4124 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
4125 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
4126 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
4127 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
4128
4129 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
4130 has chosen to ignore this fault)
4131 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
4132 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
4133 been given)
4134 [Richard Levitte]
4135
4136 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
4137
4138 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
4139 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
4140 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
4141 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
4142 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
4143 [Steve Henson]
4144
4145 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
4146 [Steve Henson]
4147
4148 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
4149 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
4150
4151 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
4152 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
4153 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
4154 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
4155 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
4156 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
4157 rather than being initialized to 1.
4158 [Steve Henson]
4159
4160 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
4161
4162 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4163 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4164 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4165
4166 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
4167 (CVE-2004-0112)
4168 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4169
4170 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
4171 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
4172 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
4173 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
4174 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
4175 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
4176 [Richard Levitte]
4177
4178 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
4179 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
4180 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
4181 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
4182 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
4183 for these cases.
4184 [Steve Henson]
4185
4186 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
4187 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
4188 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
4189 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
4190 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
4191 [Steve Henson]
4192
4193 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
4194 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
4195 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
4196 < 0.9.7.
4197 [Steve Henson]
4198
4199 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
4200 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4201
4202 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
4203 [Steve Henson]
4204
4205 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
4206
4207 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4208
4209 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4210 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4211
4212 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
4213
4214 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4215 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4216
4217 [Steve Henson]
4218
4219 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
4220 exiting on the first error in a request.
4221 [Steve Henson]
4222
4223 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4224 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4225 specifications.
4226 [Steve Henson]
4227
4228 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4229 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4230 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4231 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4232
4233 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4234 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4235 [Richard Levitte]
4236
4237 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
4238 blocks during encryption.
4239 [Richard Levitte]
4240
4241 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
4242 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
4243 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
4244 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
4245 certain size.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
4248 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
4249 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
4250 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
4251 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
4252 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
4253 parser.
4254 [Steve Henson]
4255
4256 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
4257
4258 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4259 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4260 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4261 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4262 [Bodo Moeller]
4263
4264 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4265 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4266 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4267 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4268 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4269
4270 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4271 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4272 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4273 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4274 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4275 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4276 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4277 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4278 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4279 [Bodo Moeller]
4280
4281 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
4282 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
4283 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
4284 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
4285 [Geoff Thorpe]
4286
4287 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
4288 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
4289 [Ulf Moeller]
4290
4291 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
4292
4293 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4294 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4295 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4296 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4297 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4298
4299 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4300 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4301 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4302
4303 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
4304 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
4305 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
4306 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
4307 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
4308
4309 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
4310 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
4311 used by default when no-err is given.
4312 [Richard Levitte]
4313
4314 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
4315 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
4316
4317 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
4318 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
4319 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
4320 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
4321 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
4322
4323 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
4324 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
4325 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
4326 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
4327
4328 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
4329
4330 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
4331
4332 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
4333
4334 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
4335 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
4336 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
4337 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
4338 root is omitted).
4339 [Steve Henson]
4340
4341 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
4342 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4343
4344 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
4345 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
4346 [Steve Henson]
4347
4348 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
4349 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
4350 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
4351 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
4352 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4353
4354 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
4355 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
4356 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
4357 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
4358 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
4359 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4360 followup to PR #377.
4361 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4362
4363 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
4364 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
4365 [Andy Polyakov]
4366
4367 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
4368 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
4369 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
4370 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
4371
4372 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
4373
4374 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
4375 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
4376
4377 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
4378 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
4379 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
4380 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
4381 client and server.
4382 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
4383 PR #377.
4384 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4385
4386 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
4387 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
4388 removed entirely.
4389 [Richard Levitte]
4390
4391 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
4392 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
4393 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
4394 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
4395 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
4396 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
4397 of libcrypto.
4398 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
4399 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
4400 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
4401 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
4402 have to be made anyway).
4403 [Richard Levitte]
4404
4405 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
4406 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
4407 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
4408 [Steve Henson]
4409
4410 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
4411 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
4412 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
4413 [Richard Levitte]
4414
4415 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
4416 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
4417 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
4418
4419 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
4420 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
4421 edit numbers of the version.
4422 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4423
4424 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
4425 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
4426 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
4427
4428 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
4429 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4430
4431 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4432 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4433 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4434
4435 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
4436 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4437
4438 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
4439 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4440
4441 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
4442 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4443
4444 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
4445 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4446
4447 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
4448 overflows.
4449 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4450
4451 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
4452 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
4453 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4454
4455 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
4456 representations in a platform independent manner.
4457 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4458
4459 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
4460 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
4461 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4462
4463 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
4464 indents.
4465 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4466
4467 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
4468 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4469
4470 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
4471 full. Fixed.
4472 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4473
4474 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
4475 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
4476 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4477
4478 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
4479 unconditionally).
4480 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4481
4482 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
4483 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4484
4485 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
4486 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4487
4488 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
4489 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4490
4491 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
4492 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4493
4494 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
4495 CBCParameter.
4496 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4497
4498 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
4499 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4500
4501 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
4502 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4503
4504 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
4505 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
4506 exploitable.
4507 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4508
4509 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
4510 the 0.9.6 release series:
4511
4512 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4513 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
4514 (CVE-2002-0657)
4515 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4516
4517 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
4518 [Richard Levitte]
4519
4520 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
4521 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
4522
4523 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
4524 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
4525
4526 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
4527 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
4528 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
4529 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
4530
4531 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
4532 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
4533 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
4534
4535 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
4536 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
4537 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
4538 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4539
4540 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
4541 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
4542 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
4543 some local tweaks:
4544
4545 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
4546 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
4547 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
4548 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4549 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
4550 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
4551 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
4552 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
4553 done
4554
4555 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
4556 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
4557 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
4558 [Richard Levitte]
4559
4560 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
4561 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
4562 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
4563 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
4564 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
4565
4566 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
4567 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
4568
4569 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
4570 error in AES-CFB decryption.
4571 [Richard Levitte]
4572
4573 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
4574 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
4575 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
4576 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
4577 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
4578 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
4579 [Steve Henson]
4580
4581 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
4582 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
4583 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
4584 [Steve Henson]
4585
4586 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
4587 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
4588 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4589
4590 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
4591 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
4592 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
4593 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
4594 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
4595 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
4596 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
4597 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4598
4599 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
4600 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
4601 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
4602 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
4603 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
4604 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
4605 [Steve Henson]
4606
4607 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
4608 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
4609 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
4610 declaration has been changed from
4611 int (*cb)()
4612 into
4613 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
4614 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
4615 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
4616 has been changed into
4617 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
4618
4619 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
4620 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
4621 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
4622
4623 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
4624 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
4625
4626 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
4627 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
4628 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
4629 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
4630 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
4631 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
4632 always load it have also been added.
4633 [Steve Henson]
4634
4635 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
4636 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
4637 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4638
4639 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
4640
4641 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
4642 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
4643 because it couldn't be used for anything.
4644
4645 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
4646 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
4647 command line option can be used to specify an
4648 alternative file.
4649 [Steve Henson]
4650
4651 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
4652 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
4653 [Steve Henson]
4654
4655 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
4656 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
4657 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
4658 [Steve Henson]
4659
4660 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
4661 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4662 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
4663 to work with the new engine framework.
4664 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
4665
4666 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
4667 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4668 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
4669 to work with the new engine framework.
4670 [Richard Levitte]
4671
4672 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
4673 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
4674 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
4675
4676 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
4677 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
4678
4679 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
4680 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
4681 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
4682 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
4683 FORMAT_IISSGC.
4684 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4685
4686 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4687 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4688
4689 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
4690 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
4691
4692 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
4693 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
4694 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
4695 [Ben Laurie]
4696
4697 *) Add new functions
4698 ERR_peek_last_error
4699 ERR_peek_last_error_line
4700 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
4701 These are similar to
4702 ERR_peek_error
4703 ERR_peek_error_line
4704 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
4705 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
4706 still in the error queue.
4707 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
4708
4709 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
4710 like:
4711 default_algorithms = ALL
4712 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
4713 [Steve Henson]
4714
4715 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
4716 [Steve Henson]
4717
4718 *) New experimental application configuration code.
4719 [Steve Henson]
4720
4721 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
4722 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
4723 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
4724 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
4725
4726 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
4727 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
4728
4729 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
4730 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4731
4732 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
4733 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
4734 [Bodo Moeller]
4735
4736 *) New functions/macros
4737
4738 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
4739 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
4740 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
4741 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
4742
4743 to request calling a callback function
4744
4745 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
4746 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
4747
4748 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
4749 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
4750 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
4751 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
4752 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
4753 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
4754 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
4755 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
4756 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
4757 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
4758
4759 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
4760 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
4761 [Bodo Moeller]
4762
4763 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
4764 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
4765 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
4766 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
4767 the configuration scripts.
4768
4769 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
4770 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
4771 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
4772
4773 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
4774 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
4775
4776 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
4777 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
4778 when reusing an existing buffer.
4779 [Bodo Moeller]
4780
4781 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
4782 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
4783 [Steve Henson]
4784
4785 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
4786 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
4787 [Ben Laurie]
4788
4789 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
4790 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
4791 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
4792 has the same effect.
4793 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
4794
4795 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
4796 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
4797 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
4798 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
4799 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
4800 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
4801 exception.
4802
4803 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
4804 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
4805 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
4806 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
4807
4808 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
4809 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
4810 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
4811 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
4812
4813 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
4814 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
4815 won't work.
4816
4817 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
4818 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
4819 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
4820 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
4821 default), and then completely removed.
4822 [Richard Levitte]
4823
4824 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
4825 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
4826 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
4827 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
4828 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
4829 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
4830 particular extension is supported.
4831 [Steve Henson]
4832
4833 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
4834 to retain compatibility with existing code.
4835 [Steve Henson]
4836
4837 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
4838 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
4839 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
4840 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
4841 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
4842 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
4843 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
4844 requires the destination to be valid.
4845
4846 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
4847 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
4848 [Steve Henson]
4849
4850 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
4851 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
4852 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
4853 [Bodo Moeller]
4854
4855 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
4856 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
4857
4858 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
4859 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
4860 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
4861 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
4862 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
4863 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
4864 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
4865 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
4866 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
4867 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
4868 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
4869 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
4870 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
4871 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
4872 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
4873 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
4874 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
4875 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
4876 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
4877 the new code.
4878 [Geoff Thorpe]
4879
4880 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
4881 [Steve Henson]
4882
4883 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
4884 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
4885 become part of libeay.num as well.
4886 [Richard Levitte]
4887
4888 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
4889 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
4890 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
4891 false once a handshake has been completed.
4892 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
4893 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
4894 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
4895 client has followed the request.)
4896 [Bodo Moeller]
4897
4898 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
4899 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
4900 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
4901 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
4902
4903 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
4904 more bits available for options that should not be part of
4905 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
4906 [Bodo Moeller]
4907
4908 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
4909 [Steve Henson]
4910
4911 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
4912 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
4913 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
4914 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4915
4916 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
4917 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4918 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4919
4920 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
4921 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
4922 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
4923 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
4924 [Geoff Thorpe]
4925
4926 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
4927 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
4928 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
4929 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
4930 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
4931 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
4932 [Geoff Thorpe]
4933
4934 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
4935 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
4936 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
4937 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
4938 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
4939 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
4940 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
4941 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
4942 [Geoff Thorpe]
4943
4944 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
4945 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
4946 [Geoff Thorpe]
4947
4948 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
4949 [Ben Laurie]
4950
4951 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
4952 md_data void pointer.
4953 [Ben Laurie]
4954
4955 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
4956 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
4957 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
4958 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
4959 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
4960 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
4961 [Ben Laurie]
4962
4963 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
4964 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
4965 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
4966 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
4967 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
4968 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
4969 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
4970 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
4971 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
4972 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
4973 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
4974 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
4975 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
4976 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
4977 rather than letting it slide.
4978
4979 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
4980 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
4981 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
4982 [Geoff Thorpe]
4983
4984 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
4985 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
4986 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
4987 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
4988 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
4989 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
4990 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
4991 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
4992 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
4993 [Geoff Thorpe]
4994
4995 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
4996 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
4997 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
4998 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
4999 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
5000
5001 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
5002 [Geoff Thorpe]
5003
5004 *) Add EVP test program.
5005 [Ben Laurie]
5006
5007 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
5008 [Ben Laurie]
5009
5010 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
5011 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
5012 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
5013 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
5014 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
5015 [Steve Henson]
5016
5017 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
5018 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
5019 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
5020 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
5021 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
5022 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
5023 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
5024
5025 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
5026 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
5027 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
5028 Usage example:
5029
5030 EVP_MD_CTX md;
5031
5032 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
5033 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
5034 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
5035 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
5036 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
5037
5038 [Ben Laurie]
5039
5040 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
5041 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
5042 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
5043 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
5044 anyway): E.g.,
5045
5046 des_key_schedule ks;
5047
5048 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
5049 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
5050
5051 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
5052 [Ben Laurie]
5053
5054 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
5055 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
5056 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
5057 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
5058 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
5059 functions prevents this.
5060 [Steve Henson]
5061
5062 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
5063 [Ben Laurie]
5064
5065 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
5066 correct _ecb suffix.
5067 [Ben Laurie]
5068
5069 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
5070 revocation information is handled using the text based index
5071 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
5072 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
5073 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
5074 [Steve Henson]
5075
5076 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
5077 [Richard Levitte]
5078
5079 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
5080 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
5081 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
5082 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
5083
5084 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
5085 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
5086
5087 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
5088 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5089 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
5090 via Richard Levitte]
5091
5092 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
5093 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
5094 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
5095 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
5096 [Geoff Thorpe]
5097
5098 *) Speed up EVP routines.
5099 Before:
5100 encrypt
5101 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
5102 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k

5114 [Ben Laurie]
5115
5116 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
5117 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
5118
5119 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
5120 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
5121 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
5122 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
5123 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
5124 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
5125 [Steve Henson]
5126
5127 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
5128 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
5129 [Richard Levitte]
5130
5131 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
5132 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
5133 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
5134 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
5135
5136 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
5137 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
5138 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
5139 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
5140 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
5141 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
5142 callback.
5143 [Richard Levitte]
5144
5145 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
5146 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
5147 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
5148 and interrupts/cancellations.
5149 [Richard Levitte]
5150
5151 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
5152 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
5153 [Steve Henson]
5154
5155 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
5156 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
5157 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
5158
5159 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
5160 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
5161 kind of callback.
5162 [Richard Levitte]
5163
5164 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
5165 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
5166 than this minimum value is recommended.
5167 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5168
5169 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
5170 that are easily reachable.
5171 [Richard Levitte]
5172
5173 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
5174 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
5175
5176 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
5177
5178 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
5179 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
5180 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
5181 needed for static libraries under Win32.
5182 [Steve Henson]
5183
5184 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
5185 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
5186 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
5187 [Steve Henson]
5188
5189 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
5190 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
5191 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
5192 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
5193 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
5194 internally such as S/MIME.
5195
5196 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
5197 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
5198 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
5199
5200 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
5201 applications.
5202 [Steve Henson]
5203
5204 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
5205 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
5206 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
5207 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
5208
5209 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5210
5211 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
5212
5213 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
5214 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
5215 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
5216 handling.
5217 [Steve Henson]
5218
5219 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
5220 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
5221 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
5222 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
5223 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
5224 a window system and the like.
5225 [Richard Levitte]
5226
5227 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
5228 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
5229 [Geoff]
5230
5231 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
5232 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
5233 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
5234 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
5235 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
5236 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
5237 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
5238 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
5239 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
5240 ENGINE structure.
5241 [Geoff]
5242
5243 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
5244 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
5245 tag cache.
5246 [Steve Henson]
5247
5248 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
5249 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
5250 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
5251 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
5252 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
5253 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
5254 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
5255 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
5256 [Geoff]
5257
5258 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
5259 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
5260 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
5261 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
5262 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
5263 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
5264 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
5265 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
5266 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
5267 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
5268 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
5269 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
5270 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
5271 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
5272 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
5273 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
5274 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
5275 [Geoff]
5276
5277 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
5278 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
5279 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
5280 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
5281 internal engine_int.h header.
5282 [Geoff]
5283
5284 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
5285 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
5286 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
5287 modify their own ones).
5288 [Geoff]
5289
5290 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
5291 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
5292 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
5293 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
5294 later on via ctrl() commands.
5295 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
5296 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
5297 structural references.
5298 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
5299 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
5300 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
5301 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
5302 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
5303 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
5304 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
5305 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
5306 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
5307 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
5308 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
5309 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
5310 [Geoff]
5311
5312 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
5313 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
5314 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
5315 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
5316 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
5317 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
5318 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
5319 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
5320 [Bodo Moeller]
5321
5322 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
5323 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
5324 [Steve Henson]
5325
5326 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
5327 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
5328 [Steve Henson]
5329
5330 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
5331 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
5332 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
5333 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
5334 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
5335 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
5336 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
5337 [Steve Henson]
5338
5339 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
5340 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
5341 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
5342 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
5343 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
5344
5345 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
5346 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
5347 generator).
5348 [Bodo Moeller]
5349
5350 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
5351
5352 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
5353 operations and provides various method functions that can also
5354 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
5355
5356 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
5357 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
5358
5359 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
5360 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
5361 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
5362
5363 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
5364 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
5365
5366 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
5367 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
5368
5369 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
5370
5371 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
5372 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
5373 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
5374 [Bodo Moeller]
5375
5376 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
5377 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
5378 [Richard Levitte]
5379
5380 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
5381 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
5382 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
5383 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
5384 is 40 of more characters long.
5385 [Steve Henson]
5386
5387 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
5388 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
5389 pointers.
5390 [Steve Henson]
5391
5392 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
5393 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
5394 [Bodo Moeller]
5395
5396 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
5397 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
5398 might.
5399 [Steve Henson]
5400
5401 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
5402
5403 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
5404 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
5405
5406 ASN1 error codes
5407 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
5408 ...
5409 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
5410 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
5411 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
5412 ...
5413 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
5414 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
5415
5416 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
5417 [Bodo Moeller]
5418
5419 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
5420 suffices.
5421 [Bodo Moeller]
5422
5423 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
5424 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
5425 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
5426 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
5427 and
5428 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
5429
5430 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
5431 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
5432
5433 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
5434 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
5435 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
5436 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
5437 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
5438 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
5439
5440 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
5441 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
5442
5443 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
5444 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5445
5446 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
5447 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
5448
5449 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
5450 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
5451 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
5452 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
5453
5454 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
5455 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
5456
5457 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
5458 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
5459
5460 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
5461 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
5462 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
5463 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
5464 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
5465 [Richard Levitte]
5466
5467 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
5468 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
5469 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
5470 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
5471 [Steve Henson]
5472
5473 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
5474 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
5475 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
5476 trust settings.
5477 [Steve Henson]
5478
5479 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
5480 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
5481 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
5482 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
5483 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
5484 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
5485 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
5486 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
5487 ocsp utility.
5488 [Steve Henson]
5489
5490 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
5491 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
5492 [Steve Henson]
5493
5494 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
5495 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
5496 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
5497 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
5498 [Steve Henson]
5499
5500 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
5501 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
5502 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
5503 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
5504 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
5505 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
5506 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
5507 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
5508 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
5509 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
5510 [Steve Henson]
5511
5512 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
5513 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
5514 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
5515 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
5516 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
5517 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
5518 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
5519 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
5520
5521 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
5522 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
5523 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
5524 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
5525 [Richard Levitte]
5526
5527 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
5528 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
5529 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
5530 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
5531 opensslconf.h.
5532 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
5533 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
5534 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
5535 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
5536 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
5537 what is available.
5538 [Richard Levitte]
5539
5540 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
5541 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
5542 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
5543 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
5544 auto incremented.
5545 [Steve Henson]
5546
5547 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
5548 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
5549 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
5550 [Steve Henson]
5551
5552 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
5553 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
5554 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
5555 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
5556 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
5557 [Steve Henson]
5558
5559 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
5560 [Steve Henson]
5561
5562 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
5563 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
5564 option to ocsp utility.
5565 [Steve Henson]
5566
5567 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
5568 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
5569 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
5570 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
5571 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
5572 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
5573 the request is nonce-less.
5574 [Steve Henson]
5575
5576 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
5577 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
5578 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
5579 [Bodo Moeller]
5580
5581 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
5582 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
5583 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
5584 [Steve Henson]
5585
5586 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
5587 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
5588 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
5589 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
5590 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
5591 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5592
5593 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
5594 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
5595 appear to exist.
5596 [Steve Henson]
5597
5598 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
5599 additional certificates supplied.
5600 [Steve Henson]
5601
5602 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
5603 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
5604 signature against.
5605 [Richard Levitte]
5606
5607 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
5608 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
5609 AES OIDs.
5610
5611 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
5612 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
5613 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
5614 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
5615 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
5616 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
5617 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
5618 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
5619 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
5620
5621 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
5622 request to response.
5623 [Steve Henson]
5624
5625 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
5626 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
5627 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
5628 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
5629 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
5630 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
5631 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
5632 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
5633 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
5634 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
5635 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
5636 [Steve Henson]
5637
5638 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
5639 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
5640 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
5641 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
5642 [Steve Henson]
5643
5644 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
5645 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5646
5647 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
5648 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
5649 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
5650 [Steve Henson]
5651
5652 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
5653 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
5654 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
5655 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5656 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5657
5658 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
5659 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
5660 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
5661 [Steve Henson]
5662
5663 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
5664 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
5665 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
5666 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
5667 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
5668 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
5669 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
5670 <support@securenetterm.com>]
5671
5672 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
5673 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
5674 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
5675 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
5676 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
5677 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
5678 [Steve Henson]
5679
5680 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
5681 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
5682 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
5683 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
5684 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
5685 printout format cleaned up.
5686 [Steve Henson]
5687
5688 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
5689 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
5690 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
5691 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
5692 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
5693 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
5694 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
5695 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
5696 [Steve Henson]
5697
5698 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
5699 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
5700 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
5701 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
5702 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
5703 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
5704 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
5705 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
5706 [Steve Henson]
5707
5708 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
5709 extensions from a separate configuration file.
5710 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
5711 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
5712 section to use.
5713 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5714
5715 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
5716 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
5717 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
5718 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
5719 [Steve Henson]
5720
5721 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
5722 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
5723 the given serial number (according to the index file).
5724 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
5725 in the index file.
5726 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
5727
5728 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
5729 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
5730 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
5731 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
5732
5733 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
5734 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
5735
5736 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
5737 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
5738 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
5739 [Steve Henson]
5740
5741 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
5742 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
5743 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
5744 [Bodo Moeller]
5745
5746 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
5747 file name and line number information in additional arguments
5748 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
5749 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
5750 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
5751 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
5752 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
5753 functions are provided:
5754
5755 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
5756 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
5757 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
5758 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
5759
5760 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
5761 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
5762 extended allocation function is enabled.
5763 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
5764 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
5765 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
5766
5767 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
5768 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
5769 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
5770 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
5771 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
5772 [Geoff Thorpe]
5773
5774 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
5775 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
5776 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
5777 be queried.
5778 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
5779 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
5780 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
5781 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5782
5783 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
5784 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
5785 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
5786 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
5787 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
5788 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
5789 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
5790 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
5791 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
5792 [Richard Levitte]
5793
5794 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
5795 provide utility functions which an application needing
5796 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
5797 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
5798 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
5799
5800 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
5801 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
5802 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
5803 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
5804 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
5805 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
5806 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
5807 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
5808 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
5809
5810 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
5811 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
5812 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
5813 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
5814 [Steve Henson]
5815
5816 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
5817 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
5818 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
5819 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
5820 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
5821 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
5822 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
5823 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
5824 will be added elsewhere.
5825 [Steve Henson]
5826
5827 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
5828 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
5829 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
5830 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
5831 [Steve Henson]
5832
5833 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
5834 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
5835 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
5836 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
5837 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
5838 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
5839 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
5840 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
5841 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
5842 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
5843 to produce the required SET OF.
5844 [Steve Henson]
5845
5846 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
5847 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
5848 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
5849 [Richard Levitte]
5850
5851 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
5852 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
5853 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
5854 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
5855 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
5856 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
5857 [Steve Henson]
5858
5859 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
5860 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
5861 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
5862 [Steve Henson]
5863
5864 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
5865 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
5866 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
5867 [Richard Levitte]
5868
5869 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
5870 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
5871 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
5872 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
5873 code will still work when these eventually go away.
5874 [Steve Henson]
5875
5876 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
5877 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
5878 [Steve Henson]
5879
5880 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
5881 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
5882 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
5883 certifcates and CRLs.
5884 [Steve Henson]
5885
5886 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
5887 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
5888 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
5889 [Steve Henson]
5890
5891 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
5892 entries for variables.
5893 [Steve Henson]
5894
5895 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
5896 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
5897 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
5898 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
5899 [Bodo Moeller]
5900
5901 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
5902 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
5903 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
5904 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
5905 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
5906 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
5907 [Bodo Moeller]
5908
5909 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
5910 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
5911
5912 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
5913 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
5914 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
5915 [Steve Henson]
5916
5917 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
5918 print routines.
5919 [Steve Henson]
5920
5921 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
5922 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
5923 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
5924 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
5925 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
5926 order did not reflect the encoded order.
5927 [Steve Henson]
5928
5929 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
5930 [Steve Henson]
5931
5932 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
5933 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
5934 for now but they will eventually go away.
5935 [Steve Henson]
5936
5937 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
5938 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
5939 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
5940 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
5941 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
5942 has also been converted to the new form.
5943 [Steve Henson]
5944
5945 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
5946 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
5947 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
5948 for negative moduli.
5949 [Bodo Moeller]
5950
5951 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
5952 of not touching the result's sign bit.
5953 [Bodo Moeller]
5954
5955 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
5956 set.
5957 [Bodo Moeller]
5958
5959 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
5960 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
5961 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
5962 type-specific callbacks.
5963 [Geoff Thorpe]
5964
5965 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
5966 RFC 2712.
5967 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
5968 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
5969
5970 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
5971 in sections depending on the subject.
5972 [Richard Levitte]
5973
5974 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
5975 Windows.
5976 [Richard Levitte]
5977
5978 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
5979 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
5980 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
5981 be handled deterministically).
5982 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
5983
5984 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
5985 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
5986 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
5987 [Bodo Moeller]
5988
5989 *) New function BN_kronecker.
5990 [Bodo Moeller]
5991
5992 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
5993 positive unless both parameters are zero.
5994 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
5995 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
5996 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
5997 [Bodo Moeller]
5998
5999 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
6000 sign of the number in question.
6001
6002 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
6003
6004 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
6005 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
6006 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
6007 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
6008 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
6009 [Bodo Moeller]
6010
6011 *) New function BN_swap.
6012 [Bodo Moeller]
6013
6014 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
6015 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
6016 results on negative inputs.
6017 [Bodo Moeller]
6018
6019 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
6020 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
6021 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
6022 [Bodo Moeller]
6023
6024 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
6025 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
6026 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
6027 and add new functions:
6028
6029 BN_nnmod
6030 BN_mod_sqr
6031 BN_mod_add
6032 BN_mod_add_quick
6033 BN_mod_sub
6034 BN_mod_sub_quick
6035 BN_mod_lshift1
6036 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
6037 BN_mod_lshift
6038 BN_mod_lshift_quick
6039
6040 These functions always generate non-negative results.
6041
6042 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
6043 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
6044
6045 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
6046 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
6047 be reduced modulo m.
6048 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
6049
6050 #if 0
6051 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
6052 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
6053 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
6054
6055 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
6056 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
6057 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
6058 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
6059 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
6060 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
6061 differing sizes.
6062 [Richard Levitte]
6063 #endif
6064
6065 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
6066 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
6067 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
6068 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
6069 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
6070
6071 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
6072 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
6073 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
6074 cause any problems.
6075 [Bodo Moeller]
6076
6077 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
6078 [Richard Levitte]
6079
6080 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
6081 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
6082 [Richard Levitte]
6083
6084 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
6085 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
6086 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
6087 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
6088 time)
6089 [Richard Levitte]
6090
6091 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
6092 [Richard Levitte]
6093
6094 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
6095 [Richard Levitte]
6096
6097 *) Add the following functions:
6098
6099 ENGINE_load_cswift()
6100 ENGINE_load_chil()
6101 ENGINE_load_atalla()
6102 ENGINE_load_nuron()
6103 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
6104
6105 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
6106 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
6107 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
6108 libraries unless it's really needed.
6109
6110 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
6111 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
6112 declarations (they differed!).
6113 [Richard Levitte]
6114
6115 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
6116 [Richard Levitte]
6117
6118 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
6119 [Richard Levitte]
6120
6121 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
6122 [Bodo Moeller]
6123
6124 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
6125 identity, and test if they are actually available.
6126 [Richard Levitte]
6127
6128 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
6129 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
6130 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
6131
6132 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
6133 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
6134 [Richard Levitte]
6135
6136 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
6137 [Richard Levitte]
6138
6139 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
6140 [Richard Levitte]
6141
6142 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
6143 [Ben Laurie]
6144
6145 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
6146 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
6147 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
6148
6149 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
6150 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
6151 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
6152 different shared library filenames on each system.
6153 [Geoff Thorpe]
6154
6155 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
6156 [Richard Levitte]
6157
6158 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
6159 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
6160 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
6161 of two sections.
6162 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
6163
6164 *) NCONF changes.
6165 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
6166 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
6167 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
6168 binary backward compatibility.
6169 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
6170 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
6171 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
6172 LDAP server.
6173 [Richard Levitte]
6174
6175 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
6176 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
6177 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
6178 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
6179 this case.
6180 [Steve Henson]
6181
6182 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
6183 [Ben Laurie]
6184
6185 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
6186 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
6187 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
6188 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
6189 set.
6190 [Steve Henson]
6191
6192 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
6193 [Richard Levitte]
6194
6195 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
6196
6197 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
6198 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
6199 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
6200
6201 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
6202
6203 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
6204
6205 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
6206 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
6207 [Steve Henson]
6208
6209 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
6210
6211 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
6212
6213 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
6214 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
6215
6216 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
6217 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
6218
6219 [Steve Henson]
6220
6221 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
6222 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
6223 specifications.
6224 [Steve Henson]
6225
6226 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
6227 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
6228 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
6229 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
6230
6231 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
6232 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
6233 [Richard Levitte]
6234
6235 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
6236
6237 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
6238 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
6239 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
6240 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
6241 [Bodo Moeller]
6242
6243 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
6244 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
6245 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
6246 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
6247 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6248
6249 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
6250 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
6251 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
6252 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
6253 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
6254 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
6255 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
6256 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
6257 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
6258 [Bodo Moeller]
6259
6260 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
6261
6262 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
6263 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
6264 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
6265 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
6266 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
6267
6268 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
6269 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
6270 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
6271
6272 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
6273
6274 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
6275 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
6276 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
6277 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
6278 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
6279 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
6280 [Geoff Thorpe]
6281
6282 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
6283 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
6284 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
6285 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
6286 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
6287 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6288
6289 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
6290 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
6291 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
6292
6293 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
6294 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
6295 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
6296 EVP_cleanup().
6297 [Richard Levitte]
6298
6299 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
6300 being properly terminated.
6301 [Richard Levitte]
6302
6303 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
6304 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
6305 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
6306 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
6307
6308 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
6309 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
6310 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
6311 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
6312 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
6313 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
6314 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
6315 change.
6316 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
6317
6318 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
6319 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
6320 [Bodo Moeller]
6321
6322 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
6323 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
6324 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
6325 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
6326 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
6327 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
6328 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
6329 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
6330
6331 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
6332 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
6333 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
6334 (see [openssl.org #212]).
6335 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
6336
6337 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
6338 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
6339 [Steve Henson]
6340
6341 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
6342
6343 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
6344 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
6345 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
6346
6347 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
6348
6349 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
6350 and get fix the header length calculation.
6351 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
6352 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
6353 Steve Henson]
6354
6355 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
6356 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
6357 assertions could call abort()).
6358 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
6359
6360 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
6361
6362 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6363 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6364 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6365 supplied buffer.
6366 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6367
6368 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
6369 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
6370 by the selection routines (PR #130).
6371 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6372
6373 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
6374 [Nils Larsch]
6375
6376 *) New option
6377 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
6378 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
6379 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
6380
6381 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
6382 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
6383 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
6384 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
6385 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
6386 applications.
6387 [Bodo Moeller]
6388
6389 *) Changes in security patch:
6390
6391 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
6392 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
6393 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
6394 F30602-01-2-0537.
6395
6396 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
6397 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
6398 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
6399 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
6400 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
6401
6402 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
6403 happen in practice.
6404 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6405
6406 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
6407 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
6408 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
6409
6410 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
6411 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
6412 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6413
6414 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
6415 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
6416 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
6417
6418 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
6419
6420 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
6421 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
6422 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
6423
6424 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
6425 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
6426
6427 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
6428 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
6429 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
6430 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
6431 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
6432 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
6433 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6434
6435 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
6436 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
6437 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
6438 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
6439 [Bodo Moeller]
6440
6441 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
6442 [Bodo Moeller]
6443
6444 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
6445 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
6446 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
6447 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
6448 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
6449 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6450
6451 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
6452 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
6453 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
6454 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
6455 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
6456 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6457
6458 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
6459 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
6460 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
6461 BN_generate_prime().)
6462
6463 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
6464 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
6465 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
6466 better.
6467 [Bodo Moeller]
6468
6469 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
6470 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
6471 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6472
6473 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
6474 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
6475 when using non-blocking I/O.
6476 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
6477
6478 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
6479 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
6480
6481 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
6482 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
6483 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6484
6485 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
6486 configuration for the versions before that.
6487 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
6488
6489 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
6490 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
6491 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
6492 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
6493 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6494
6495 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
6496 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
6497 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
6498 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6499
6500 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
6501 value is 0.
6502 [Richard Levitte]
6503
6504 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
6505 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
6506 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
6507
6508 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
6509 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
6510
6511 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
6512 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
6513 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
6514 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
6515 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
6516 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
6517 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
6518 session cache.
6519
6520 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
6521 using a local variable.
6522 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
6523
6524 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
6525 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
6526 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
6527
6528 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
6529 [Richard Levitte]
6530
6531 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
6532 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
6533
6534 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
6535 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
6536 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
6537
6538 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
6539
6540 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
6541 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
6542 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
6543 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
6544 [Bodo Moeller]
6545
6546 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
6547 present.
6548 [Steve Henson]
6549
6550 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
6551 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
6552 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
6553 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
6554 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
6555
6556 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
6557 returns early because it has nothing to do.
6558 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6559
6560 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6561 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
6562 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6563
6564 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6565 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
6566 (Use engine 'keyclient')
6567 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
6568
6569 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
6570 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
6571 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
6572 modules).
6573 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
6574
6575 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6576 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
6577 from 0.9.7.
6578 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
6579
6580 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6581 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
6582 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
6583 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
6584
6585 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
6586 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
6587 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
6588 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
6589
6590 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
6591 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
6592
6593 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
6594 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
6595 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
6596 [Bodo Moeller]
6597
6598 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
6599 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
6600 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
6601 become invalid.
6602 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
6603
6604 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
6605 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
6606 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
6607 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
6608 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
6609 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
6610 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
6611 [Bodo Moeller]
6612
6613 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
6614 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
6615 one of the SSL handshake functions.
6616 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
6617
6618 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
6619 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
6620 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
6621 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
6622 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
6623 the client will at least see that alert.
6624 [Bodo Moeller]
6625
6626 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
6627 correctly.
6628 [Bodo Moeller]
6629
6630 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
6631 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
6632 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
6633
6634 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
6635 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
6636 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
6637 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
6638 HelloRequest.
6639
6640 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
6641 before just sending a HelloRequest.
6642 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
6643
6644 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
6645 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
6646 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
6647 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
6648 may leak via logfiles.)
6649
6650 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
6651 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
6652 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
6653 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
6654 the legal range.
6655 [Bodo Moeller]
6656
6657 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
6658 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
6659 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6660
6661 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
6662 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
6663 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
6664 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
6665 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
6666 [Bodo Moeller]
6667
6668 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
6669 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
6670
6671 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
6672 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
6673 followed by modular reduction.
6674 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
6675
6676 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
6677 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
6678 [Bodo Moeller]
6679
6680 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
6681 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
6682 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
6683 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
6684 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6685
6686 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
6687 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6688
6689 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
6690 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
6691 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6692
6693 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
6694 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
6695 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
6696 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
6697 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
6698 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
6699 automatically.
6700 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
6701
6702 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
6703 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
6704 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
6705 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
6706 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
6707
6708 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
6709 [Andy Polyakov]
6710
6711 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
6712 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
6713 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
6714 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
6715 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
6716 to allow the necessary settings.
6717 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6718
6719 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
6720 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
6721 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
6722 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
6723 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6724
6725 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
6726 dh->length and always used
6727
6728 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
6729
6730 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
6731 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
6732 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
6733 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
6734 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
6735 dh->length.
6736
6737 So switch back to
6738
6739 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
6740
6741 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
6742 otherwise.
6743 [Bodo Moeller]
6744
6745 *) In
6746
6747 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
6748 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
6749 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
6750 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
6751
6752 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
6753 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
6754 always reject numbers >= n.
6755 [Bodo Moeller]
6756
6757 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
6758 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
6759 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
6760 variable) is not atomic.
6761 [Bodo Moeller]
6762
6763 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
6764 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
6765 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
6766 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
6767
6768 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
6769 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
6770
6771 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
6772 little-endian MIPS.
6773 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
6774
6775 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
6776 [Richard Levitte]
6777
6778 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
6779
6780 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
6781 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
6782 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
6783 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
6784 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
6785 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
6786 to traverse all of 'state'.
6787
6788 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
6789 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
6790 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
6791
6792 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
6793 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
6794
6795 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
6796 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
6797 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
6798 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
6799 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
6800 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
6801 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
6802 further strengthens the PRNG.
6803 [Bodo Moeller]
6804
6805 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
6806 [Andy Polyakov]
6807
6808 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
6809 an error message in this case.
6810 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6811
6812 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
6813 [Steve Henson]
6814
6815 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
6816 positive and less than q.
6817 [Bodo Moeller]
6818
6819 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
6820 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
6821 that itself.
6822 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
6823
6824 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
6825 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
6826 [Bodo Moeller]
6827
6828 *) Fix OAEP check.
6829 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6830
6831 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
6832 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
6833 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
6834 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
6835 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
6836 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
6837 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
6838 paper.)
6839
6840 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
6841 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
6842 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
6843 detect the supposedly ignored error.
6844
6845 Both problems are now fixed.
6846 [Bodo Moeller]
6847
6848 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
6849 (previously it was 1024).
6850 [Bodo Moeller]
6851
6852 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
6853 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
6854 [Steve Henson]
6855
6856 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
6857 [Steve Henson]
6858
6859 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
6860 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
6861 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
6862 [Steve Henson]
6863
6864 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
6865 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
6866 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
6867 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
6868 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
6869 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
6870 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
6871 environment variables.
6872
6873 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
6874 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
6875 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
6876 [Bodo Moeller]
6877
6878 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
6879 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
6880 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
6881 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
6882 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
6883 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
6884 [Bodo Moeller]
6885
6886 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
6887 versions of 'test'.
6888 [Bodo Moeller]
6889
6890 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
6891
6892 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
6893 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
6894
6895 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
6896 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
6897 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
6898 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
6899 CygWin.
6900 [Richard Levitte]
6901
6902 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
6903 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
6904 amount of data available.
6905 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
6906 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6907
6908 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
6909 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
6910 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
6911 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
6912 [Bodo Moeller]
6913
6914 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
6915 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
6916 and UnixWare.
6917 [Richard Levitte]
6918
6919 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
6920 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
6921 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
6922 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
6923 [Ulf Moeller]
6924
6925 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
6926 [Andy Polyakov]
6927
6928 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
6929 [Richard Levitte]
6930
6931 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
6932 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
6933 [Steve Henson]
6934 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6935
6936 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
6937 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
6938 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
6939 (but broken) behaviour.
6940 [Steve Henson]
6941
6942 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
6943 it when found.
6944 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
6945
6946 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
6947 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
6948 [Bodo Moeller]
6949
6950 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
6951 did not exist.
6952 [Bodo Moeller]
6953
6954 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
6955 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
6956
6957 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
6958 [Richard Levitte]
6959
6960 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
6961 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
6962 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
6963
6964 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
6965 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
6966 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
6967 [Steve Henson]
6968
6969 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
6970 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
6971 [Ulf Moeller]
6972
6973 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
6974 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
6975
6976 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
6977
6978 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
6979
6980 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
6981 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
6982 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
6983 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
6984 [Bodo Moeller]
6985
6986 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
6987 [Lutz Jaenicke]
6988
6989 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
6990 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
6991 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
6992
6993 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
6994 was empty.
6995 [Steve Henson]
6996 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
6997
6998 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
6999 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
7000 but the code is actually correct.
7001 [Steve Henson]
7002
7003 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
7004 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
7005 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
7006 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
7007 and leaves the highest bit random.
7008 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7009
7010 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
7011 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
7012 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
7013 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
7014 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
7015 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
7016 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
7017 [Bodo Moeller]
7018
7019 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
7020 [Ulf Moeller]
7021
7022 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
7023 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
7024 [Steve Henson]
7025
7026 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
7027 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
7028 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
7029 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
7030 headers.
7031 [Richard Levitte]
7032
7033 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
7034 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
7035 and break the signature.
7036 [Steve Henson]
7037 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
7038
7039 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
7040 DH ciphersuites.
7041 [Steve Henson]
7042
7043 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
7044 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
7045 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
7046 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
7047 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
7048 [Bodo Moeller]
7049
7050 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
7051 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
7052
7053 *) ./config script fixes.
7054 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
7055
7056 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
7057 [Bodo Moeller]
7058
7059 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
7060 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
7061 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
7062 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
7063 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
7064
7065 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
7066 call failed, free the DSA structure.
7067 [Bodo Moeller]
7068
7069 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
7070 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
7071 [Steve Henson]
7072
7073 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
7074 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
7075 when writing a 32767 byte record.
7076 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
7077
7078 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
7079 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
7080
7081 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
7082 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
7083 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
7084 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
7085 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
7086
7087 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
7088 [Bodo Moeller]
7089
7090 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
7091 [Ulf Möller]
7092
7093 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
7094 [Ulf Möller]
7095
7096 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
7097 [Bodo Moeller]
7098
7099 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
7100 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
7101 [Bodo Moeller]
7102
7103 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
7104 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
7105 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
7106 result of the server certificate verification.)
7107 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7108
7109 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
7110 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
7111 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
7112 [Bodo Moeller]
7113
7114 *) Fix SSL_peek:
7115 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
7116 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
7117 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
7118 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
7119 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
7120 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
7121 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
7122 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
7123 [Bodo Moeller]
7124
7125 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
7126 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
7127 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
7128 happening the other way round.
7129 [Geoff Thorpe]
7130
7131 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
7132 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
7133 [Bodo Moeller]
7134
7135 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
7136 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
7137 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
7138 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
7139 [Richard Levitte]
7140
7141 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
7142 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
7143
7144 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
7145
7146 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
7147 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
7148 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
7149 that.
7150
7151 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
7152
7153 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
7154
7155 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
7156 static ones.
7157 [Richard Levitte]
7158
7159 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
7160
7161 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
7162 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
7163 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
7164 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
7165 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
7166
7167 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
7168 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
7169 matter what.
7170 [Richard Levitte]
7171
7172 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
7173 [Lutz Jaenicke]
7174
7175 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
7176
7177 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
7178 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
7179 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
7180 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
7181 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
7182 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
7183 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
7184 by the Finished messages.
7185 [Bodo Moeller]
7186
7187 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
7188 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
7189
7190 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
7191 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
7192 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
7193 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
7194 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
7195 appropriately.
7196 [Steve Henson]
7197
7198 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
7199 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
7200 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
7201 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
7202 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
7203 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
7204 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
7205 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
7206 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
7207 together.
7208 [Steve Henson]
7209
7210 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
7211 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
7212 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
7213 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
7214
7215 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
7216 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
7217 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
7218 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
7219 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
7220 the answer.
7221
7222 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
7223 been tested well enough.
7224 [Richard Levitte]
7225
7226 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
7227 it can return incorrect results.
7228 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
7229 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
7230 [Bodo Moeller]
7231
7232 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
7233 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
7234 include zero length content when signing messages.
7235 [Steve Henson]
7236
7237 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
7238 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
7239 [Bodo Möller]
7240
7241 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
7242 [Richard Levitte]
7243
7244 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
7245 wrong sign.
7246 [Ulf Möller]
7247
7248 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
7249 packages. The default package contains applications, application
7250 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
7251 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
7252 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
7253 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
7254 [Richard Levitte]
7255
7256 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
7257 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
7258
7259 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
7260 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
7261
7262 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
7263 random number < q in the DSA library.
7264 [Ulf Möller]
7265
7266 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
7267 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
7268 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
7269 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
7270 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
7271 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
7272 just makes things more complicated.)
7273 [Bodo Moeller]
7274
7275 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
7276 from EGD.
7277 [Ben Laurie]
7278
7279 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
7280 work better on such systems.
7281 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7282
7283 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
7284 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
7285 keyid to the certificates aux info.
7286 [Steve Henson]
7287
7288 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
7289 if there was more than one signature.
7290 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
7291
7292 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
7293 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
7294 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
7295 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
7296 [Richard Levitte]
7297
7298 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
7299 rather than always using the current time.
7300 [Steve Henson]
7301
7302 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
7303 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
7304 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
7305 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
7306 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
7307 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
7308
7309 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
7310 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
7311
7312 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
7313
7314 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
7315 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
7316 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
7317 the same hash value.
7318
7319 As a result various functions (which were all internal
7320 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
7321 structure. This will break anything that messed round
7322 with X509_STORE internally.
7323
7324 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
7325 exact match, rather than just subject name.
7326
7327 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
7328 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
7329 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
7330 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
7331 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
7332 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
7333 entirely (maybe later...).
7334
7335 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
7336
7337 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
7338 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
7339 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
7340 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
7341 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
7342 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
7343 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
7344 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
7345
7346 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
7347 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
7348
7349 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
7350 to customise the verify behaviour.
7351 [Steve Henson]
7352
7353 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
7354 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
7355 [Steve Henson]
7356
7357 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
7358 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
7359 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
7360 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
7361 request is improperly encoded.
7362 [Steve Henson]
7363
7364 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
7365 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
7366 BIO_write(b, ...).
7367
7368 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
7369 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
7370
7371 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
7372 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
7373 words set to zero.)
7374 [Bodo Moeller]
7375
7376 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
7377 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
7378 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
7379 [Bodo Moeller]
7380
7381 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
7382 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
7383 BIO/fp routines also added.
7384 [Steve Henson]
7385
7386 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
7387 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
7388
7389 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
7390 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
7391 demos/state_machine.
7392 [Ben Laurie]
7393
7394 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
7395 generation and verification.
7396 [Steve Henson]
7397
7398 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
7399 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
7400 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
7401 encode and decode it manually.
7402 [Steve Henson]
7403
7404 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
7405 compile under VC++.
7406 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
7407
7408 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
7409 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
7410 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
7411 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
7412
7413 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
7414 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
7415 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
7416 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
7417 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
7418 [Steve Henson]
7419
7420 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
7421 [Richard Levitte]
7422
7423 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
7424 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
7425 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
7426
7427 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
7428 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
7429 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
7430 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
7431 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
7432 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
7433 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
7434 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
7435
7436 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
7437 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
7438
7439 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
7440
7441 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
7442 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
7443 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
7444
7445 [Richard Levitte]
7446
7447 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
7448 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
7449 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
7450 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
7451 [Richard Levitte]
7452
7453 *) MD4 implemented.
7454 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
7455
7456 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
7457 [Richard Levitte]
7458
7459 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
7460 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
7461 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
7462 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
7463 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
7464 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
7465 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
7466 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
7467 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
7468 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
7469 short or long names are found.
7470 [Steve Henson]
7471
7472 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
7473 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
7474
7475 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
7476 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
7477 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
7478 version rollback attacks was not effective.
7479
7480 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
7481 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
7482 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
7483 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
7484 [Bodo Moeller]
7485
7486 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
7487 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
7488 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
7489 [Richard Levitte]
7490
7491 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
7492 these print out strings and name structures based on various
7493 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
7494 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
7495 to allow the various flags to be set.
7496 [Steve Henson]
7497
7498 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
7499 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
7500 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
7501 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
7502 dates to be checked.
7503 [Steve Henson]
7504
7505 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
7506 negative public key encodings) on by default,
7507 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
7508 [Steve Henson]
7509
7510 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
7511 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
7512 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
7513 [Steve Henson]
7514
7515 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
7516 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
7517 [Bodo Moeller]
7518
7519 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
7520 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
7521 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
7522 are always statically linked for now, but there are
7523 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
7524 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
7525 [Richard Levitte]
7526
7527 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
7528 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
7529 Random Numbers.
7530 [Ulf Möller]
7531
7532 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
7533 DSA key.
7534 [Steve Henson]
7535
7536 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
7537 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
7538 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
7539 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
7540 form signing output easier to verify.
7541 [Steve Henson]
7542
7543 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
7544 [Steve Henson]
7545
7546 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
7547 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
7548 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
7549 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
7550 are needed because all other string types have virtually
7551 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
7552 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
7553 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
7554 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
7555 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
7556 [Steve Henson]
7557
7558 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
7559
7560 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
7561 the syntax given in objects.README.
7562 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
7563 obj_mac.h.
7564 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
7565 obj_mac.h.
7566
7567 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
7568 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
7569 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
7570 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
7571 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
7572 consistent name changes.
7573 [Richard Levitte]
7574
7575 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
7576 [Bodo Moeller]
7577
7578 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
7579 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
7580 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
7581 environment variable, or the default random state file.
7582 [Richard Levitte]
7583
7584 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
7585 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
7586 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
7587 of safestack.h .
7588 [Steve Henson]
7589
7590 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
7591 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
7592 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
7593 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
7594 [Steve Henson]
7595
7596 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
7597 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
7598 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
7599 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
7600 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
7601 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
7602 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
7603 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
7604 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
7605 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
7606 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
7607 [Steve Henson]
7608
7609 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
7610 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
7611 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
7612 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
7613 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
7614 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
7615 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
7616 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
7617 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
7618 algorithm to openssl-dev.
7619 [Steve Henson]
7620
7621 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
7622 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
7623 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
7624 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
7625
7626 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
7627 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
7628 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
7629 omit any duplicate addresses.
7630 [Steve Henson]
7631
7632 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
7633 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
7634 [Bodo Moeller]
7635
7636 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
7637 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
7638 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
7639 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
7640 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
7641 [Bodo Moeller]
7642
7643 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
7644 software:
7645 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
7646 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
7647 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
7648 Free => OPENSSL_free
7649 [Richard Levitte]
7650
7651 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
7652 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
7653 [Bodo Moeller]
7654
7655 *) CygWin32 support.
7656 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
7657
7658 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
7659 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
7660 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
7661 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
7662 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
7663 approach.
7664 [Geoff Thorpe]
7665
7666 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
7667 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
7668 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
7669 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
7670 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
7671 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
7672 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
7673 [Geoff Thorpe]
7674
7675 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
7676 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
7677 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
7678 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
7679 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
7680 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
7681 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
7682 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
7683 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
7684 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
7685 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
7686 [Bodo Moeller]
7687
7688 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
7689 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
7690 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
7691 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
7692 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
7693
7694 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
7695 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
7696 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
7697 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
7698 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
7699
7700 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
7701 ciphers.
7702
7703 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
7704 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
7705 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
7706 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
7707
7708 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
7709
7710 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
7711 of macros.
7712
7713 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
7714 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
7715 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
7716 flags.
7717
7718 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
7719 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
7720 any installed hardware versions can.
7721 [Steve Henson]
7722
7723 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
7724 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
7725 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
7726 number.
7727 [Bodo Moeller]
7728
7729 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
7730 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
7731 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
7732 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
7733 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
7734
7735 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
7736 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
7737 [Steve Henson]
7738
7739 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
7740 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
7741 [Richard Levitte]
7742
7743 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
7744 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
7745 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
7746 features.
7747 [Steve Henson]
7748
7749 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
7750 [Ulf Möller]
7751
7752 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
7753 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
7754 but no ssl client purpose.
7755 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
7756
7757 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
7758 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
7759 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
7760 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
7761 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
7762 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
7763 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
7764 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
7765 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
7766 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
7767 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
7768 [Steve Henson]
7769
7770 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
7771 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
7772 be obtained from the error queue.
7773 [Bodo Moeller]
7774
7775 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
7776 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
7777 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
7778 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
7779 [Bodo Moeller]
7780
7781 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
7782 [Ulf Möller]
7783
7784 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
7785 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
7786 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
7787 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
7788 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
7789 [Geoff Thorpe]
7790
7791 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
7792 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
7793 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
7794 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
7795 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
7796 [Geoff Thorpe]
7797
7798 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
7799 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
7800 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
7801 may not be NULL.
7802 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
7803
7804 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
7805 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
7806 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
7807 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
7808 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
7809 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
7810 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
7811 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
7812 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
7813 or "the configuration storage API"...
7814
7815 The new configuration file reading functions are:
7816
7817 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
7818 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
7819
7820 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
7821
7822 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
7823
7824 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
7825 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
7826 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
7827 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
7828 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
7829 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
7830 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
7831
7832 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
7833 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
7834 [Richard Levitte]
7835
7836 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
7837 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
7838 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
7839 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
7840 [Bodo Moeller]
7841
7842 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
7843 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
7844 them in a portable way.
7845 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
7846
7847 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
7848
7849 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
7850
7851 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
7852 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
7853
7854 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
7855 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
7856 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
7857 <attili@amaxo.com>]
7858
7859 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
7860 was larger than the MD block size.
7861 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
7862
7863 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
7864 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
7865 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
7866 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
7867 components.
7868 [Steve Henson]
7869
7870 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
7871 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
7872 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
7873
7874 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
7875 discouraged.
7876 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
7877
7878 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
7879 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
7880 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
7881 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
7882 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
7883 Additional arguments are always ignored.
7884
7885 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
7886 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
7887
7888 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
7889 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
7890 [Bodo Moeller]
7891
7892 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
7893 [Bodo Moeller]
7894
7895 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
7896 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
7897 its own key.
7898 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
7899 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
7900 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
7901 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
7902 [Bodo Moeller]
7903
7904 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
7905 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
7906 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
7907 does not suppress any output.
7908 [Richard Levitte]
7909
7910 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
7911 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
7912 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
7913 with all the associated security issues.
7914
7915 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
7916 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
7917 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
7918 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
7919 use the value in the default purpose.
7920 [Steve Henson]
7921
7922 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
7923 and fix a memory leak.
7924 [Steve Henson]
7925
7926 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
7927 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
7928 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
7929 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
7930 [Bodo Moeller]
7931
7932 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
7933 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
7934 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
7935 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
7936 [Bodo Moeller]
7937
7938 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
7939 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
7940 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
7941 [Bodo Moeller]
7942
7943 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
7944 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
7945 [Bodo Moeller]
7946
7947 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
7948 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
7949 which was free.
7950 [Steve Henson]
7951
7952 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
7953 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
7954 [Bodo Moeller]
7955
7956 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
7957 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
7958 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
7959 [Bodo Moeller]
7960
7961 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
7962 number generation fails.
7963 [Bodo Moeller]
7964
7965 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
7966 [Bodo Moeller]
7967
7968 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
7969 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
7970
7971 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
7972 [Ulf Möller]
7973
7974 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
7975 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
7976
7977 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
7978 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
7979
7980 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
7981
7982 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
7983 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
7984 [Steve Henson]
7985
7986 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
7987 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
7988
7989 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
7990 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
7991 [Ulf Möller]
7992
7993 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
7994 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
7995 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
7996 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
7997 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
7998 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
7999
8000 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
8001 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
8002 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
8003 for example.
8004 [Steve Henson]
8005
8006 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
8007 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
8008 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
8009 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
8010 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
8011 counter, some don't.)
8012 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
8013 counters or duplicate objects.
8014 [Steve Henson]
8015
8016 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
8017 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
8018 [Steve Henson]
8019
8020 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
8021 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
8022 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
8023
8024 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
8025 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
8026 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
8027 or -rand.
8028 [Ulf Möller]
8029
8030 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
8031 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
8032 [Steve Henson]
8033
8034 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
8035 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
8036 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
8037 cipher list.
8038 [Steve Henson]
8039
8040 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
8041 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
8042 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
8043 [Steve Henson]
8044
8045 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
8046 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
8047 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
8048 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
8049 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
8050 should work without changes.
8051 [Richard Levitte]
8052
8053 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
8054 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
8055 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
8056 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
8057 must be defined. E.g.,
8058 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
8059 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
8060 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
8061 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
8062
8063 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
8064 record layer.
8065 [Bodo Moeller]
8066
8067 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
8068 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
8069 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
8070 [Steve Henson]
8071
8072 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
8073 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
8074 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
8075 request header lines. Some software needs this.
8076 [Steve Henson]
8077
8078 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
8079 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
8080 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
8081 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
8082 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
8083 is prompted for as usual.
8084 [Steve Henson]
8085
8086 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
8087 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
8088 autodetect the card and use it if present.
8089 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
8090
8091 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
8092 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
8093 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
8094 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
8095 [Steve Henson]
8096
8097 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
8098 [Andy Polyakov]
8099
8100 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
8101 of seed file.
8102 [Steve Henson]
8103
8104 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
8105 [Bodo Moeller]
8106
8107 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
8108 [Steve Henson]
8109
8110 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
8111 bits.
8112 [Ulf Möller]
8113
8114 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
8115 [Ulf Möller]
8116
8117 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
8118 [Andy Polyakov]
8119
8120 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
8121 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
8122 [Ulf Möller]
8123
8124 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
8125 options to produce them.
8126 [Steve Henson]
8127
8128 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
8129 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
8130 [Ulf Möller]
8131
8132 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
8133 for p == 0.
8134 [Ulf Möller]
8135
8136 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
8137 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
8138 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
8139 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
8140 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
8141 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
8142 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
8143 [Steve Henson]
8144
8145 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
8146 [Steve Henson]
8147
8148 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
8149 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
8150 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
8151 [Bodo Moeller]
8152
8153 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
8154 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
8155
8156 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
8157 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
8158 [Ulf Möller]
8159
8160 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
8161 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
8162 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
8163 has already seen).
8164 [Bodo Moeller]
8165
8166 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
8167 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
8168
8169 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
8170 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
8171 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
8172 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
8173 generation becomes much faster.
8174
8175 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
8176 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
8177 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
8178 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
8179 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
8180 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
8181 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
8182 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
8183 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
8184 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
8185 [Bodo Moeller]
8186
8187 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
8188 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
8189 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
8190 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
8191 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
8192 trial division stage.
8193 [Bodo Moeller]
8194
8195 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
8196 as ASN1_TIME.
8197 [Steve Henson]
8198
8199 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
8200 [Steve Henson]
8201
8202 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
8203 [Ulf Möller]
8204
8205 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
8206 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
8207 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
8208 the comments.
8209 [Ulf Möller]
8210
8211 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
8212 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
8213 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
8214 [Bodo Moeller]
8215
8216 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
8217 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
8218 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
8219 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
8220
8221 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
8222 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
8223 [Steve Henson]
8224
8225 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
8226 [Ulf Möller]
8227
8228 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
8229 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
8230 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
8231 Rabin-Miller iterations.
8232 [Ulf Möller]
8233
8234 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
8235 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
8236 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
8237 [Ulf Möller]
8238
8239 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
8240 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
8241 (instead of parameters) in future.
8242 [Steve Henson]
8243
8244 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
8245 when a new cipher list is set.
8246 [Steve Henson]
8247
8248 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
8249 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
8250 wrong.
8251
8252 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
8253 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
8254 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
8255
8256 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
8257 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
8258 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
8259 an error is flagged.
8260
8261 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
8262 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
8263 the readability was also increased :-)
8264 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
8265
8266 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
8267 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
8268 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
8269 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
8270 as the root CA.
8271 [Steve Henson]
8272
8273 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
8274 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
8275 [Steve Henson]
8276
8277 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
8278 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
8279 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
8280 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
8281 instead.
8282
8283 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
8284 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
8285 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
8286 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
8287 because they handle more complex structures.)
8288 [Steve Henson]
8289
8290 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
8291 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
8292 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
8293 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
8294
8295 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
8296 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
8297 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
8298 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
8299 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
8300 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
8301 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
8302 [Ulf Möller]
8303
8304 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
8305 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
8306 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
8307 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
8308 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
8309 [Bodo Moeller]
8310
8311 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
8312 [Bodo Moeller]
8313
8314 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
8315 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
8316 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
8317 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
8318 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
8319 to use this.
8320
8321 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
8322 code.
8323 [Steve Henson]
8324
8325 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
8326 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
8327 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
8328 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
8329 [Steve Henson]
8330
8331 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
8332 [Ulf Möller]
8333
8334 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
8335 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
8336 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
8337 international characters are used.
8338
8339 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
8340 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
8341 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
8342 in ASN1 order.
8343 [Steve Henson]
8344
8345 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
8346 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
8347 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
8348 request.
8349
8350 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
8351 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
8352 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
8353 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
8354 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
8355 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
8356
8357 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
8358 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
8359 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
8360 be handled by the string table functions.
8361
8362 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
8363 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
8364 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
8365 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
8366 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
8367 types at all.
8368 [Steve Henson]
8369
8370 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
8371 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
8372 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
8373 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
8374 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
8375
8376 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
8377 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
8378 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
8379 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
8380 [Bodo Moeller]
8381
8382 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
8383 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
8384 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
8385 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
8386 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
8387 SHA1.
8388 [Andy Polyakov]
8389
8390 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
8391 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
8392 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
8393 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
8394 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
8395 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
8396 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
8397 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
8398
8399 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
8400 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
8401 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
8402 [Steve Henson]
8403
8404 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
8405 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
8406 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
8407 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
8408 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
8409 support to pkcs8 application.
8410 [Steve Henson]
8411
8412 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
8413 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
8414 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
8415 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
8416 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
8417 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
8418 [Bodo Moeller]
8419
8420 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
8421 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
8422 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
8423 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
8424 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
8425 consistency.
8426 [Bodo Moeller]
8427
8428 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
8429 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
8430 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
8431 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
8432 example.
8433 [Steve Henson]
8434
8435 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
8436 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
8437 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
8438 and any application specific purposes.
8439
8440 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
8441 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
8442 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
8443 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
8444 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
8445 if the certificate is self signed.
8446 [Steve Henson]
8447
8448 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
8449 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
8450 [Steve Henson]
8451
8452 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
8453 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
8454 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
8455 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
8456 [Steve Henson]
8457
8458 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
8459 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
8460 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
8461 Update documentation.
8462 [Steve Henson]
8463
8464 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
8465 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
8466 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
8467 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
8468 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
8469 [Steve Henson]
8470
8471 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
8472 for details.
8473 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
8474
8475 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
8476 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
8477 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
8478 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
8479 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
8480 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
8481 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
8482 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
8483 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
8484 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
8485
8486 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
8487
8488 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8489 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
8490 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
8491 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
8492 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
8493
8494 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
8495 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
8496 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
8497 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
8498 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
8499 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
8500 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
8501 request additional information:
8502 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
8503 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
8504
8505 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
8506 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
8507 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
8508 options.
8509
8510 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
8511 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
8512
8513 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
8514 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
8515 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
8516
8517 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
8518 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
8519
8520 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
8521 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
8522 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
8523 algorithm.
8524 [Steve Henson]
8525
8526 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
8527 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
8528 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
8529
8530 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
8531 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
8532 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
8533 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
8534 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
8535 included in OpenSSL.
8536 [Steve Henson]
8537
8538 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
8539 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
8540 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
8541 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
8542 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
8543 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
8544 [Bodo Moeller]
8545
8546 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
8547 PKCS12 structure.
8548 [Steve Henson]
8549
8550 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
8551 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
8552 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
8553 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
8554 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
8555 structure.
8556 [Steve Henson]
8557
8558 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
8559 need initialising.
8560 [Steve Henson]
8561
8562 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
8563 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
8564 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
8565 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
8566 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
8567 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
8568 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
8569 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
8570 be maintained manually.
8571
8572 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
8573 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
8574 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
8575 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
8576 work because people forget to call this function]
8577 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
8578 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
8579 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
8580 [Steve Henson]
8581
8582 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
8583 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
8584 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
8585 should be discouraged from doing it.
8586 [Ben Laurie]
8587
8588 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
8589 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
8590 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
8591 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
8592 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
8593 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
8594 [Steve Henson]
8595
8596 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
8597 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
8598 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
8599
8600 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
8601 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
8602 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
8603
8604 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
8605 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
8606 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
8607 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
8608 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
8609 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
8610
8611 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
8612 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
8613 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
8614
8615 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
8616 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
8617 and vice versa.
8618
8619 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
8620 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
8621 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
8622 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
8623 [Steve Henson]
8624
8625 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
8626 [Steve Henson]
8627
8628 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
8629 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
8630 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
8631 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
8632 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
8633 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
8634 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
8635 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
8636 keys so we should be OK.
8637
8638 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
8639 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
8640 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
8641 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
8642 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
8643 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
8644 stay in the name of compatibility.
8645
8646 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
8647 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
8648 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
8649
8650 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
8651 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
8652 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
8653 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
8654 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
8655 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
8656 supplied key).
8657 [Steve Henson]
8658
8659 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
8660 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
8661 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
8662 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
8663 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
8664 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
8665 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
8666 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
8667 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
8668 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
8669 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
8670 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
8671 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
8672 [Steve Henson]
8673
8674 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
8675 [Steve Henson]
8676
8677 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
8678 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
8679 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
8680 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
8681 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
8682 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
8683 single self signed certificate. This means that:
8684 openssl verify ss.pem
8685 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
8686 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
8687 is OK.
8688 [Steve Henson]
8689
8690 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
8691 (and add it to external session representation).
8692 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
8693 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
8694 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
8695 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
8696 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
8697 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
8698 security holes.
8699 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
8700
8701 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
8702 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
8703 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
8704 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
8705
8706 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
8707 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
8708 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
8709 [Steve Henson]
8710
8711 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
8712 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
8713 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
8714 code.
8715 [Steve Henson]
8716
8717 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
8718 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
8719 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
8720
8721 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
8722 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
8723 certificate auxiliary information.
8724 [Steve Henson]
8725
8726 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
8727 the 'enc' command.
8728 [Steve Henson]
8729
8730 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
8731 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
8732 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
8733 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
8734 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
8735 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
8736 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
8737 [Richard Levitte]
8738
8739 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
8740 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
8741 [Steve Henson]
8742
8743 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
8744 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
8745 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
8746 manpages and fix a few bugs.
8747 [Steve Henson]
8748
8749 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
8750 [Steve Henson]
8751
8752 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
8753 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
8754 [Steve Henson]
8755
8756 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
8757 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
8758 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
8759 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
8760 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
8761 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
8762 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
8763 using the new 'x509' options.
8764
8765 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
8766 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
8767 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
8768 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
8769 for all purposes.
8770 [Steve Henson]
8771
8772 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
8773 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
8774 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
8775 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
8776 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
8777 [Mark Cox]
8778
8779 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
8780 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
8781 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
8782 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
8783 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
8784 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
8785 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
8786 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
8787 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
8788 the key length and effective key length are equal.
8789 [Steve Henson]
8790
8791 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
8792 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
8793 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
8794 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
8795 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
8796 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
8797 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
8798 [Steve Henson]
8799
8800 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
8801 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
8802 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
8803 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
8804 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
8805 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
8806 openssl.cnf for more info.
8807 [Steve Henson]
8808
8809 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
8810 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
8811 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
8812 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
8813 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
8814 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
8815 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
8816 md should be large enough anyway.
8817 [Bodo Moeller]
8818
8819 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
8820 for handling the random seed file.
8821
8822 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
8823 ca,
8824 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
8825 s_client,
8826 s_server,
8827 x509 (when signing).
8828 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
8829 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
8830 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
8831
8832 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
8833 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
8834 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
8835 that support '-rand'.
8836 [Bodo Moeller]
8837
8838 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
8839 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
8840 [Bodo Moeller]
8841
8842 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
8843 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
8844 [Bill Perry]
8845
8846 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
8847 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
8848 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
8849 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
8850 is suitable.
8851 [Steve Henson]
8852
8853 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
8854 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
8855 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
8856 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
8857 [Steve Henson]
8858
8859 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
8860 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
8861 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
8862 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
8863 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
8864 print out all the purposes.
8865 [Steve Henson]
8866
8867 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
8868 functions.
8869 [Steve Henson]
8870
8871 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
8872 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
8873 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
8874 single function call.
8875 [Steve Henson]
8876
8877 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
8878 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
8879 [Andy Polyakov]
8880
8881 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
8882 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
8883 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
8884 [Steve Henson]
8885
8886 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
8887 when producing the local key id.
8888 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8889
8890 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
8891 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
8892 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
8893 "server.pem".
8894 [Steve Henson]
8895
8896 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
8897 a public key to be input or output. For example:
8898 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
8899 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
8900 [Steve Henson]
8901
8902 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
8903 in the message. This was handled by allowing
8904 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
8905 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
8906
8907 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
8908 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
8909 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
8910 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8911
8912 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
8913 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
8914 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
8915 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
8916 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
8917 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
8918 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
8919 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
8920 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
8921 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
8922 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
8923 trivial: move one line.
8924 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
8925
8926 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
8927 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
8928 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
8929 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
8930 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
8931 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
8932 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
8933 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
8934 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
8935 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
8936 with an event loop for example.
8937 [Steve Henson]
8938
8939 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
8940 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
8941 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
8942 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
8943 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
8944 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
8945 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
8946 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
8947 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
8948 [Steve Henson]
8949
8950 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
8951 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
8952 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
8953 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
8954 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
8955 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
8956 [Steve Henson]
8957
8958 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
8959 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
8960 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
8961 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
8962
8963 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
8964 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
8965 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
8966 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
8967 key generation.
8968 [Steve Henson]
8969
8970 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
8971 (still largely untested)
8972 [Bodo Moeller]
8973
8974 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
8975 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
8976 [Steve Henson]
8977
8978 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
8979 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
8980 [Steve Henson]
8981
8982 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
8983 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
8984 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
8985 [Bodo Moeller]
8986
8987 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
8988 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
8989 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
8990 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
8991 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
8992 [Steve Henson]
8993
8994 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
8995 [Andy Polyakov]
8996
8997 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
8998 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
8999 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
9000 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
9001 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
9002 in ca.
9003 [Steve Henson]
9004
9005 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
9006 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
9007 1.OU="Unit name 1"
9008 2.OU="Unit name 2"
9009 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
9010 [Steve Henson]
9011
9012 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
9013 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
9014 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
9015 are otherwise ignored at present.
9016 [Steve Henson]
9017
9018 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
9019 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
9020 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
9021 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
9022 copied until the next read.
9023 [Steve Henson]
9024
9025 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
9026 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
9027 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
9028 [Steve Henson]
9029
9030 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
9031 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
9032 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
9033 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
9034 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
9035 associated functions.
9036 [Steve Henson]
9037
9038 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
9039 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
9040 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
9041 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
9042 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
9043 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
9044 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
9045 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
9046 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
9047 memory BIOs.
9048 [Steve Henson]
9049
9050 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
9051 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
9052 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
9053 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
9054 [Bodo Moeller]
9055
9056 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
9057 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
9058 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
9059 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
9060 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
9061 functionality.
9062 [Steve Henson]
9063
9064 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
9065 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
9066 under Win32.
9067 [Steve Henson]
9068
9069 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
9070 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
9071 extensions to be obtained and added.
9072 [Steve Henson]
9073
9074 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
9075 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
9076 [Bodo Moeller]
9077
9078 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
9079
9080 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9081 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9082
9083 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
9084 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
9085
9086 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
9087 program.
9088 [Steve Henson]
9089
9090 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
9091 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
9092 DH parameters contain its length).
9093
9094 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
9095 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
9096 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
9097 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
9098 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
9099 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
9100 utter importance to use
9101 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9102 or
9103 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
9104 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
9105 attacks may become possible!
9106 [Bodo Moeller]
9107
9108 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
9109 [Bodo Moeller]
9110
9111 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
9112 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
9113 [Steve Henson]
9114
9115 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
9116 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
9117 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
9118 or long name.
9119 [Steve Henson]
9120
9121 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
9122 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
9123 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
9124 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
9125 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
9126 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
9127 private key operations.
9128 [Steve Henson]
9129
9130 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
9131 [Andy Polyakov]
9132
9133 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
9134 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
9135 to
9136 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
9137 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
9138 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
9139 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
9140 the password callback is called.
9141 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
9142
9143 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
9144
9145 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
9146 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
9147 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
9148 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
9149 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
9150 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
9151 this will work.
9152
9153 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
9154 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
9155 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
9156 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
9157 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
9158 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
9159 [Bodo Moeller]
9160
9161 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
9162 [Andy Polyakov]
9163
9164 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
9165 delete an unused file.
9166 [Ulf Möller]
9167
9168 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
9169 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
9170 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
9171 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
9172 [Steve Henson]
9173
9174 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
9175 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
9176 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
9177 of an error.
9178 [Bodo Moeller]
9179
9180 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
9181 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
9182 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
9183
9184 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
9185 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
9186 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
9187 comparison" warnings.
9188 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
9189 [Steve Henson]
9190
9191 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
9192 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
9193 derived keys are printed to stderr.
9194 [Steve Henson]
9195
9196 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
9197 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
9198
9199 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
9200 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
9201
9202 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
9203 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
9204 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
9205
9206 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
9207 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
9208 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
9209 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
9210 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
9211 this bug.
9212 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
9213
9214 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
9215 The interface is as follows:
9216 Applications can use
9217 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
9218 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
9219 "off" is now the default.
9220 The library internally uses
9221 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
9222 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
9223 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
9224
9225 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
9226 even the default) are now avoided.
9227
9228 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
9229 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
9230 than just having a counter.
9231
9232 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
9233
9234 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
9235 extensions.
9236 [Bodo Moeller]
9237
9238 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
9239 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
9240 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
9241 Initial "mode" flags are:
9242
9243 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
9244 a single record has been written.
9245 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
9246 retries use the same buffer location.
9247 (But all of the contents must be
9248 copied!)
9249 [Bodo Moeller]
9250
9251 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
9252 worked.
9253
9254 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
9255 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
9256
9257 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
9258 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
9259 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
9260 [Steve Henson]
9261
9262 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
9263 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
9264 test programs.
9265 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
9266
9267 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
9268 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
9269 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
9270 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
9271 point to the end.
9272 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
9273 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
9274
9275 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
9276 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
9277 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
9278 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
9279 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
9280 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
9281 [Steve Henson]
9282
9283 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
9284 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
9285 necessary function names.
9286 [Steve Henson]
9287
9288 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
9289 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
9290 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
9291 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
9292 [Bodo Moeller]
9293
9294 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
9295 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
9296 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
9297 [Steve Henson]
9298
9299 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
9300 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
9301 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
9302 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
9303 such programs?)
9304 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
9305 need locks.
9306 [Bodo Moeller]
9307
9308 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
9309 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
9310 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
9311 [Bodo Moeller]
9312
9313 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
9314 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
9315 appropriate.
9316 [Bodo Moeller]
9317
9318 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
9319 for the encoded length.
9320 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
9321
9322 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
9323 [Steve Henson]
9324
9325 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
9326 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
9327 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
9328 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
9329 [Steve Henson]
9330
9331 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
9332 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
9333 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9334
9335 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
9336 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
9337 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
9338 unusual formatting.
9339 [Steve Henson]
9340
9341 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
9342 to use the new extension code.
9343 [Steve Henson]
9344
9345 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
9346 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
9347 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
9348 constant.
9349 [Steve Henson]
9350
9351 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
9352 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
9353 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
9354 [Bodo Moeller]
9355
9356 #if 0
9357 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
9358 [Ben Laurie]
9359 #else
9360 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
9361 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
9362 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
9363 #endif
9364
9365 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
9366 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
9367 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
9368 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
9369 [Ben Laurie]
9370
9371 *) DES library cleanups.
9372 [Ulf Möller]
9373
9374 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
9375 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
9376 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
9377 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
9378 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
9379 of v2.0.
9380 [Steve Henson]
9381
9382 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
9383 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
9384 [Bodo Moeller]
9385
9386 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
9387 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
9388 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
9389 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
9390 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
9391 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
9392 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
9393 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
9394 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
9395 [Steve Henson]
9396
9397 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
9398 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
9399 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
9400 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
9401 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
9402 value doesn't matter.
9403 [Steve Henson]
9404
9405 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
9406 support mutable.
9407 [Ben Laurie]
9408
9409 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
9410 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
9411 "linux-sparc" configuration.
9412 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
9413
9414 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
9415 [Ulf Möller]
9416
9417 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
9418 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
9419 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9420
9421 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
9422 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
9423
9424 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
9425 [Ben Laurie]
9426
9427 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
9428 [Ben Laurie]
9429
9430 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
9431 [Ben Laurie]
9432
9433 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
9434 [Bodo Moeller]
9435
9436
9437 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
9438
9439 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
9440
9441 *) Updated some demos.
9442 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
9443
9444 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
9445 [Wu Zhigang]
9446
9447 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
9448 [Steve Henson]
9449
9450 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
9451 [Steve Henson]
9452
9453 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
9454 instead of using a fixed path.
9455 [Bodo Moeller]
9456
9457 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
9458 [Andy Polyakov]
9459
9460 *) Improvements for VMS support.
9461 [Richard Levitte]
9462
9463
9464 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
9465
9466 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
9467 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
9468 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9469
9470 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
9471 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
9472 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
9473 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
9474 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
9475 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
9476 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
9477 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
9478 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
9479 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
9480 [Steve Henson]
9481
9482 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
9483 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
9484 [Steve Henson]
9485
9486 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
9487 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
9488 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
9489 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
9490 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
9491
9492 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
9493 [Bodo Moeller]
9494
9495 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
9496 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
9497 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
9498 [Steve Henson]
9499
9500 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
9501 [Ben Laurie]
9502
9503 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
9504 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
9505 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
9506 key elements as negative integers.
9507 [Steve Henson]
9508
9509 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
9510 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9511
9512 *) VMS support.
9513 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
9514
9515 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
9516 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
9517 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
9518 [Steve Henson]
9519
9520 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
9521 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
9522 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
9523 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
9524 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
9525 [Bodo Moeller]
9526
9527 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
9528 [Ulf Möller]
9529
9530 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
9531 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
9532 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
9533 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9534
9535 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
9536 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
9537 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
9538
9539 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
9540 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
9541 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
9542 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
9543 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
9544 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
9545 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
9546 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
9547 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
9548
9549 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
9550 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
9551 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
9552 does not influence s as it used to.
9553
9554 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
9555 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
9556 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
9557 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
9558 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
9559 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
9560 [Bodo Moeller]
9561
9562 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
9563 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
9564 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
9565 key type.
9566 [Steve Henson]
9567
9568 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
9569 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
9570 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
9571 and 'x509').
9572 [Steve Henson]
9573
9574 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
9575 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
9576 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
9577 extension option.
9578 [Steve Henson]
9579
9580 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
9581 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
9582 [Ben Laurie]
9583
9584 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
9585 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
9586
9587 *) Support Mingw32.
9588 [Ulf Möller]
9589
9590 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
9591 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9592
9593 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
9594 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9595
9596 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
9597 [Ulf Möller]
9598
9599 *) Update HPUX configuration.
9600 [Anonymous]
9601
9602 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
9603 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9604
9605 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
9606 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
9607 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
9608 DER-encoded.)
9609 [Bodo Moeller]
9610
9611 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
9612 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
9613 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
9614 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
9615 now it really counts the depth.
9616 [Bodo Moeller]
9617
9618 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
9619 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
9620 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
9621 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
9622 didn't match the private key).
9623
9624 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
9625 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
9626 connection using the SSL_CTX).
9627 [Bodo Moeller]
9628
9629 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
9630 [Ulf Möller]
9631
9632 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
9633 David Harris.
9634 [Bodo Moeller]
9635
9636 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
9637 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
9638 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
9639 [Bodo Moeller]
9640
9641 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
9642 [Bodo Moeller]
9643
9644 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
9645 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
9646 such as /usr/local/bin.
9647 [Bodo Moeller]
9648
9649 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
9650 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9651
9652 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
9653 [Ulf Möller]
9654
9655 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
9656 extension adding in x509 utility.
9657 [Steve Henson]
9658
9659 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
9660 [Ulf Möller]
9661
9662 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
9663 prototypes.
9664 [Steve Henson]
9665
9666 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
9667 [Ulf Möller]
9668
9669 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
9670 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
9671 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
9672 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
9673 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
9674 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
9675 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
9676 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
9677 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
9678 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
9679 [Steve Henson]
9680
9681 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
9682 [Bodo Moeller]
9683
9684 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
9685 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
9686 [Bodo Moeller]
9687
9688 *) Fix some race conditions.
9689 [Bodo Moeller]
9690
9691 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
9692 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
9693 [Steve Henson]
9694
9695 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
9696 [Ulf Möller]
9697
9698 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
9699 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
9700 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
9701 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
9702
9703 *) Fix lots of warnings.
9704 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9705
9706 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
9707 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
9708 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
9709
9710 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
9711 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9712
9713 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
9714 [Ulf Möller]
9715
9716 *) Fix typos in error codes.
9717 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
9718
9719 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
9720 [Ulf Möller]
9721
9722 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
9723 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
9724
9725 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
9726 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
9727 [Steve Henson]
9728
9729 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
9730 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
9731 [Ben Laurie]
9732
9733 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
9734 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
9735 [Steve Henson]
9736
9737 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
9738 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
9739 [Steve Henson]
9740
9741 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
9742 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
9743 [Steve Henson]
9744
9745 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
9746 support typesafe stack.
9747 [Steve Henson]
9748
9749 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
9750 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
9751
9752 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
9753 old X509V3 handling code.
9754 [Steve Henson]
9755
9756 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
9757 [Ulf Möller]
9758
9759 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
9760 [Bodo Moeller]
9761
9762 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
9763 [Ben Laurie]
9764
9765 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
9766 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
9767
9768 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
9769 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
9770 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
9771 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
9772 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
9773 [Ben Laurie]
9774
9775 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
9776 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
9777 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
9778 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
9779 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
9780
9781 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
9782 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
9783 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
9784 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9785
9786 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
9787 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
9788 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
9789 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9790
9791 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
9792 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
9793 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
9794 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
9795 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
9796 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
9797 [Bodo Moeller]
9798
9799 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
9800 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
9801 [Bodo Moeller]
9802
9803 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
9804 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
9805 [Ulf Möller]
9806
9807 *) Tweaks to Configure
9808 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
9809
9810 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
9811 yet...
9812 [Steve Henson]
9813
9814 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
9815 [Ulf Möller]
9816
9817 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
9818 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
9819 [Ulf Möller]
9820
9821 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
9822 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
9823 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
9824 [Bodo Moeller]
9825
9826 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
9827 [Bodo Moeller]
9828
9829 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
9830 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
9831 [Steve Henson]
9832
9833 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
9834 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
9835 to library startup routines.
9836 [Steve Henson]
9837
9838 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
9839 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
9840 codes along the way.
9841 [Steve Henson]
9842
9843 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
9844 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
9845 objects to objects.h
9846 [Steve Henson]
9847
9848 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
9849 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
9850 [Steve Henson]
9851
9852 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
9853 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
9854
9855 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
9856 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
9857 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
9858
9859 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
9860 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
9861 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9862
9863 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
9864 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
9865 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
9866
9867
9868 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
9869
9870 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
9871 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
9872 [Ben Laurie]
9873
9874 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
9875 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
9876 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
9877 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
9878 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
9879
9880 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
9881 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
9882 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
9883 document.
9884 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9885
9886 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
9887 Malloc, Free.
9888 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
9889
9890 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
9891 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
9892
9893 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
9894 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
9895 if someone would make that last step automatic.
9896 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
9897
9898 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
9899 [Ben Laurie]
9900
9901 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
9902 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
9903 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
9904 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
9905 [Steve Henson]
9906
9907 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
9908 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
9909 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
9910 [Steve Henson]
9911
9912 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
9913 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
9914 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
9915 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
9916 installed as `perl').
9917 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9918
9919 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
9920 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
9921
9922 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
9923 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
9924 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
9925 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
9926 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
9927 [Steve Henson]
9928
9929 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
9930 [Ben Laurie]
9931
9932 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
9933 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
9934 is horrible: I feel ill....
9935 [Steve Henson]
9936
9937 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
9938 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
9939 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
9940 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
9941 [Steve Henson]
9942
9943 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
9944 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9945
9946 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
9947 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
9948 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
9949 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9950
9951 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
9952 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
9953 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
9954 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
9955 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
9956 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
9957 openssl_bio.xs.
9958 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9959
9960 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
9961 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
9962
9963 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
9964 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
9965
9966 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
9967 [Ben Laurie]
9968
9969 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
9970 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
9971 in CRLs.
9972 [Steve Henson]
9973
9974 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
9975 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
9976 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
9977 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
9978 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
9979 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
9980 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
9981 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
9982 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
9983 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
9984 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9985
9986 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
9987 [Ben Laurie]
9988
9989 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
9990 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
9991 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
9992 for linking it into DSOs.
9993 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
9994
9995 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
9996 Fixed.
9997 [Ben Laurie]
9998
9999 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
10000 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
10001 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
10002 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
10003 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
10004 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10005
10006 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
10007 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
10008 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
10009 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
10010 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
10011 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
10012 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10013
10014 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
10015 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
10016 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
10017 encryption.
10018 [Ben Laurie]
10019
10020 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
10021 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
10022 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
10023 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
10024 [Steve Henson]
10025
10026 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
10027 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
10028 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
10029 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
10030 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
10031 field as blank.
10032 [Steve Henson]
10033
10034 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
10035 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
10036 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
10037 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
10038 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10039
10040 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
10041 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
10042 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10043
10044 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
10045 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
10046
10047 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
10048 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
10049 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
10050 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
10051 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
10052 [Steve Henson]
10053
10054 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
10055 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
10056 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
10057 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
10058 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
10059 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
10060 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
10061 [Ben Laurie]
10062
10063 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
10064 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
10065 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
10066 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
10067 [Ben Laurie]
10068
10069 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
10070 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
10071
10072 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
10073 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
10074 [Steve Henson]
10075
10076 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
10077 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
10078 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
10079 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
10080 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
10081 (e.g. s_server).
10082 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
10083 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
10084 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
10085 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
10086 no way to reconfigure them.
10087 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
10088 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
10089 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
10090 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
10091 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
10092 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10093
10094 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
10095 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
10096 recognized by the users.
10097 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10098
10099 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
10100 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
10101 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
10102 already masked variable.
10103 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10104
10105 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
10106 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10107
10108 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
10109 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
10110 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
10111 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
10112
10113 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
10114 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
10115 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10116
10117 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
10118 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
10119 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
10120 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
10121 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
10122 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
10123 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
10124 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
10125 now, too.
10126 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10127
10128 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
10129 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
10130 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10131
10132 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
10133 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
10134 config file.
10135 [Steve Henson]
10136
10137 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
10138 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
10139
10140 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
10141 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
10142 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
10143 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
10144 [Ben Laurie]
10145
10146 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
10147 [Steve Henson]
10148
10149 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
10150 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10151
10152 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
10153 [Ben Laurie]
10154
10155 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
10156 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
10157 [Steve Henson]
10158
10159 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
10160 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
10161 [Steve Henson]
10162
10163 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
10164 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
10165 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
10166 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
10167 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
10168 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
10169 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
10170 Ben Laurie]
10171
10172 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
10173 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10174
10175 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
10176 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
10177 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
10178 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
10179 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10180
10181 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
10182 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
10183 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
10184 [Steve Henson]
10185
10186 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
10187 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
10188 an example.
10189 [Steve Henson]
10190
10191 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
10192 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
10193 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10194
10195 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
10196 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
10197 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
10198 build instructions.
10199 [Steve Henson]
10200
10201 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
10202 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
10203 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
10204 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
10205 [Steve Henson]
10206
10207 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
10208 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
10209 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
10210 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
10211 [Ben Laurie]
10212
10213 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
10214 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
10215 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
10216 so it wasn't spotted.
10217 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
10218
10219 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
10220 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
10221 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
10222 vectors if you have them.
10223 [Ben Laurie]
10224
10225 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
10226 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
10227 [Ben Laurie]
10228
10229 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
10230 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
10231 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
10232 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
10233 If you do a:
10234 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
10235 it will update them.
10236 [Steve Henson]
10237
10238 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
10239 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
10240 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
10241 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
10242 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
10243 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
10244 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
10245 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10246
10247 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
10248 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
10249 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
10250 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
10251 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
10252 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
10253 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
10254 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
10255 the crypto/md/ stuff).
10256 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10257
10258 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
10259 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
10260 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
10261 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
10262 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
10263 [Steve Henson]
10264
10265 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
10266 INTEGER code.
10267 [Steve Henson]
10268
10269 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
10270 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10271
10272 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
10273 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
10274
10275 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
10276 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
10277 [Ben Laurie]
10278
10279 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
10280 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
10281
10282 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
10283 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
10284
10285 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
10286 [Steve Henson]
10287
10288 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
10289 few typos.
10290 [Steve Henson]
10291
10292 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
10293 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
10294 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
10295 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
10296
10297 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10298 [Steve Henson]
10299
10300 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
10301 [Steve Henson]
10302
10303 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
10304 [Steve Henson]
10305
10306 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
10307 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
10308 [Steve Henson]
10309
10310 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
10311 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
10312 CA extensions.
10313 [Steve Henson]
10314
10315 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
10316 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
10317 [Steve Henson]
10318
10319 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
10320 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
10321 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
10322 [Steve Henson]
10323
10324 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
10325 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
10326 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
10327 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
10328 properly to be processed.
10329 [Steve Henson]
10330
10331 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
10332 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
10333 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
10334 [Ben Laurie]
10335
10336 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
10337 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
10338
10339 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
10340 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
10341 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
10342 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
10343 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
10344 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
10345 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
10346 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
10347 or delete all the .err files.
10348 [Steve Henson]
10349
10350 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
10351 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
10352 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
10353 to regenerate it if needed.
10354 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
10355 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
10356
10357 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
10358 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10359
10360 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
10361 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
10362 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
10363 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
10364 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
10365 [Steve Henson]
10366
10367 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
10368 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10369
10370 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
10371 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10372
10373 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
10374 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
10375 error, but didn't set one).
10376 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10377
10378 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
10379 [Ben Laurie]
10380
10381 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
10382 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
10383 [Steve Henson]
10384
10385 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
10386 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
10387
10388 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
10389 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
10390 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
10391 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
10392 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
10393 OID is not part of the table.
10394 [Steve Henson]
10395
10396 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
10397 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
10398 [Ben Laurie]
10399
10400 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
10401 [Ben Laurie]
10402
10403 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
10404 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
10405 was "1234").
10406 [Steve Henson]
10407
10408 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
10409 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
10410
10411 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
10412 NULL pointers.
10413 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10414
10415 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
10416 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10417
10418 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
10419 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
10420
10421 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
10422 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
10423
10424 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
10425 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
10426 [Ben Laurie]
10427
10428 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
10429 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
10430 [Steve Henson]
10431
10432 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
10433 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10434
10435 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
10436 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10437
10438 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
10439 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10440
10441 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
10442 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
10443
10444 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
10445 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
10446 unused in the certificate verification process.
10447 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10448
10449 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
10450 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
10451 [Steve Henson]
10452
10453 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
10454 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
10455 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
10456
10457 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
10458 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
10459 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
10460 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
10461 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
10462
10463 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
10464 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
10465 [Steve Henson]
10466
10467 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
10468 [Steve Henson]
10469
10470 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
10471 [Paul Sutton]
10472
10473 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
10474 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
10475
10476 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
10477 [Ben Laurie]
10478
10479 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
10480 [Ben Laurie]
10481
10482 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
10483 [Ben Laurie]
10484
10485 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
10486 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
10487 other error libraries.
10488 [Steve Henson]
10489
10490 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
10491 [Steve Henson]
10492
10493 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
10494 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
10495 be read in.
10496 [Steve Henson]
10497
10498 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
10499 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
10500 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
10501 the new set of documenation files.
10502 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
10503
10504 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
10505 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
10506 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
10507 number of arguments.
10508 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
10509
10510 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
10511 [Ben Laurie]
10512
10513 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
10514 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
10515 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
10516
10517 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
10518 [Ben Laurie]
10519
10520 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
10521 nextstep
10522 ncr-scde
10523 unixware-2.0
10524 unixware-2.0-pentium
10525 sco5-cc.
10526 [Ben Laurie]
10527
10528 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
10529 before they are needed.
10530 [Ben Laurie]
10531
10532 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
10533 [Ben Laurie]
