5 Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.9 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch_ex.
8 [Ben Laurie]
9
10 *) Type-checked OBJ_bsearch. Also some constification necessitated
11 by type-checking. Still to come: TXT_DB, bsearch(?),
12 OBJ_bsearch_ex, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE, ASN1_STRING,
13 CONF_VALUE.
14 [Ben Laurie]
15
16 *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_adj() to add a specific number of days and
17 seconds to a tm structure directly, instead of going through OS
18 specific date routines. This avoids any issues with OS routines such
19 as the year 2038 bug. New *_adj() functions for ASN1 time structures
20 and X509_time_adj_ex() to cover the extended range. The existing
21 X509_time_adj() is still usable and will no longer have any date issues.
22 [Steve Henson]
23
24 *) Delta CRL support. New use deltas option which will attempt to locate
25 and search any appropriate delta CRLs available.
26
27 This work was sponsored by Google.
28 [Steve Henson]
29
30 *) Support for CRLs partitioned by reason code. Reorganise CRL processing
31 code and add additional score elements. Validate alternate CRL paths
32 as part of the CRL checking and indicate a new error "CRL path validation
33 error" in this case. Applications wanting additional details can use
34 the verify callback and check the new "parent" field. If this is not
35 NULL CRL path validation is taking place. Existing applications wont
36 see this because it requires extended CRL support which is off by
37 default.
38
39 This work was sponsored by Google.
40 [Steve Henson]
41
42 *) Support for freshest CRL extension.
43
44 This work was sponsored by Google.
45 [Steve Henson]
46
47 *) Initial indirect CRL support. Currently only supported in the CRLs
48 passed directly and not via lookup. Process certificate issuer
49 CRL entry extension and lookup CRL entries by bother issuer name
50 and serial number. Check and process CRL issuer entry in IDP extension.
51
52 This work was sponsored by Google.
53 [Steve Henson]
54
55 *) Add support for distinct certificate and CRL paths. The CRL issuer
56 certificate is validated separately in this case. Only enabled if
57 an extended CRL support flag is set: this flag will enable additional
58 CRL functionality in future.
59
60 This work was sponsored by Google.
61 [Steve Henson]
62
63 *) Add support for policy mappings extension.
64
65 This work was sponsored by Google.
66 [Steve Henson]
67
68 *) Fixes to pathlength constraint, self issued certificate handling,
69 policy processing to align with RFC3280 and PKITS tests.
70
71 This work was sponsored by Google.
72 [Steve Henson]
73
74 *) Support for name constraints certificate extension. DN, email, DNS
75 and URI types are currently supported.
76
77 This work was sponsored by Google.
78 [Steve Henson]
79
80 *) To cater for systems that provide a pointer-based thread ID rather
81 than numeric, deprecate the current numeric thread ID mechanism and
82 replace it with a structure and associated callback type. This
83 mechanism allows a numeric "hash" to be extracted from a thread ID in
84 either case, and on platforms where pointers are larger than 'long',
85 mixing is done to help ensure the numeric 'hash' is usable even if it
86 can't be guaranteed unique. The default mechanism is to use "&errno"
87 as a pointer-based thread ID to distinguish between threads.
88
89 Applications that want to provide their own thread IDs should now use
90 CRYPTO_THREADID_set_callback() to register a callback that will call
91 either CRYPTO_THREADID_set_numeric() or CRYPTO_THREADID_set_pointer().
92
93 Note that ERR_remove_state() is now deprecated, because it is tied
94 to the assumption that thread IDs are numeric. ERR_remove_state(0)
95 to free the current thread's error state should be replaced by
96 ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL).
97
98 (This new approach replaces the functions CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(),
99 CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(), and CRYPTO_thread_idptr() that existed in
100 OpenSSL 0.9.9-dev between June 2006 and August 2008. Also, if an
101 application was previously providing a numeric thread callback that
102 was inappropriate for distinguishing threads, then uniqueness might
103 have been obtained with &errno that happened immediately in the
104 intermediate development versions of OpenSSL; this is no longer the
105 case, the numeric thread callback will now override the automatic use
106 of &errno.)
107 [Geoff Thorpe, with help from Bodo Moeller]
108
109 *) Initial support for different CRL issuing certificates. This covers a
110 simple case where the self issued certificates in the chain exist and
111 the real CRL issuer is higher in the existing chain.
112
113 This work was sponsored by Google.
114 [Steve Henson]
115
116 *) Removed effectively defunct crypto/store from the build.
117 [Ben Laurie]
118
119 *) Revamp of STACK to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
120 TXT_DB, bsearch(?), OBJ_bsearch, qsort, CRYPTO_EX_DATA, ASN1_VALUE,
121 ASN1_STRING, CONF_VALUE.
122 [Ben Laurie]
123
124 *) Add a new SSL_MODE_RELEASE_BUFFERS mode flag to release unused buffer
125 RAM on SSL connections. This option can save about 34k per idle SSL.
126 [Nick Mathewson]
127
128 *) Revamp of LHASH to provide stronger type-checking. Still to come:
129 STACK, TXT_DB, bsearch, qsort.
130 [Ben Laurie]
131
132 *) Initial support for Cryptographic Message Syntax (aka CMS) based
133 on RFC3850, RFC3851 and RFC3852. New cms directory and cms utility,
134 support for data, signedData, compressedData, digestedData and
135 encryptedData, envelopedData types included. Scripts to check against
136 RFC4134 examples draft and interop and consistency checks of many
137 content types and variants.
138 [Steve Henson]
139
140 *) Add options to enc utility to support use of zlib compression BIO.
141 [Steve Henson]
142
143 *) Extend mk1mf to support importing of options and assembly language
144 files from Configure script, currently only included in VC-WIN32.
145 The assembly language rules can now optionally generate the source
146 files from the associated perl scripts.
147 [Steve Henson]
148
149 *) Implement remaining functionality needed to support GOST ciphersuites.
150 Interop testing has been performed using CryptoPro implementations.
151 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
152
153 *) s390x assembler pack.
154 [Andy Polyakov]
155
156 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
157 "family."
158 [Andy Polyakov]
159
160 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
161 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
162 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
163 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
164 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
165 to use. For example, specify an option
166
167 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
168
169 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
170 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
171 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
172 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
173 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
174 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
175
176 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
177 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
178 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
179 return non-zero for success.
180
181 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
182 by using
183
184 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
185 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
186
187 where
188
189 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
190 void *arg;
191
192 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
193 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
194 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
195 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
196 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
197 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
198 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
199 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
200 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
201
202 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
203 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
204 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
205 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
206 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
207 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
208
209 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
210 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
211 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
212 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
213 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
214 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
215
216 [Bodo Moeller]
217
218 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
219 MAC.
220
221 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
222
223 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
224 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
225 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
226 supported.
227
228 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
229 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
230 SSL_SESSION.
231
232 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
233 protection in servers so again support should be possible
234 with no application modification.
235
236 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
237 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
238
239 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
240 or server extensions to be examined.
241
242 This work was sponsored by Google.
243 [Steve Henson]
244
245 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
246 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
247 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
248
249 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
250 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
251 ciphersuite support.
252 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
253
254 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
255 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
256 to output in BER and PEM format.
257 [Steve Henson]
258
259 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
260 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
261 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
262 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
263 -macopt options to dgst utility.
264 [Steve Henson]
265
266 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
267 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
268 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
269 utility.
270 [Steve Henson]
271
272 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
273 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
274 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
275 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
276 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
277 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
278 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
279 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
280 enabled again.
281
282 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
283 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
284 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
285 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
286
287 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
288 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
289 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
290 the default order.
291 [Bodo Moeller]
292
293 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
294 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
295 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
296 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
297 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
298 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
299 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
300 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
301 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
302
303 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
304 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
305 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
306 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
307 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
308 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
309 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
310 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
311 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
312 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
313 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
314 kinds of kludges.
315
316 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
317 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
318 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
319
320 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
321 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
322 "CAMELLIA256".
323 [Bodo Moeller]
324
325 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
326 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
327 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
328 [Nils Larsch]
329
330 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
331 it yet and it is largely untested.
332 [Steve Henson]
333
334 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
335 [Nils Larsch]
336
337 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
338 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
339 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
340 [Steve Henson]
341
342 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
343 [Andy Polyakov]
344
345 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
346 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
347 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
348 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
349 [Steve Henson]
350
351 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
352 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
353 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
354 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
355 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
356 [Steve Henson]
357
358 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
359 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
360 [Cryptocom]
361
362 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
363 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
364 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
365 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
366 [Steve Henson]
367
368 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
369 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
370 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
371 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
372 [Steve Henson]
373
374 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
375 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
376 [Steve Henson]
377
378 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
379 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
380 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
381 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
382 [Steve Henson]
383
384 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
385 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
386 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
387 [Steve Henson]
388
389 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
390 utility.
391 [Steve Henson]
392
393 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
394 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
395 [Steve Henson]
396
397 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
398 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
399 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
400 if necessary.
401 [Steve Henson]
402
403 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
404 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
405 to free up any added signature OIDs.
406 [Steve Henson]
407
408 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
409 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
410 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
411 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
412 [Steve Henson]
413
414 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
415 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
416 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
417 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
418 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
419 the array representation useful in a more general context.
420 [Douglas Stebila]
421
422 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
423 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
424 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
425 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
426 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
427
428 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
429 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
430 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
431 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
432 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
433 protocol).
434
435 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
436 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
437 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
438 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
439
440 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
441 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
442 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
443 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
444 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
445
446 aECDH - ECDH cert
447 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
448 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
449
450 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
451 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
452
453 [Bodo Moeller]
454
455 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
456 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
457 [Steve Henson]
458
459 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
460 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
461 [Steve Henson]
462
463 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
464 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
465 functional reference processing.
466 [Steve Henson]
467
468 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
469 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
470 process.
471 [Steve Henson]
472
473 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
474 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
475 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
476 [Steve Henson]
477
478 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
479 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
480 application to support multiple signers.
481 [Steve Henson]
482
483 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
484 digest MAC.
485 [Steve Henson]
486
487 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
488 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
489 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
490 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
491 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
492 [Steve Henson]
493
494 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
495 new API.
496 [Steve Henson]
497
498 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
499 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
500 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
501 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
502 a no op.
503 [Steve Henson]
504
505 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
506 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
507 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
508 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
509 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
510 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
511 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
512 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
513 [Steve Henson]
514
515 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
516 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
517 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
518 between digests and public key types.
519 [Steve Henson]
520
521 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
522 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
523 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
524 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
525 [Steve Henson]
526
527 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
528 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
529 key ASN1 method.
530 [Steve Henson]
531
532 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
533 [Steve Henson]
534
535 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
536 pkeyutl.
537 [Steve Henson]
538
539 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
540 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
541 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
542 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
543 pkey, genpkey.
544 [Steve Henson]
545
546 *) BeOS support.
547 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
548
549 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
550 manual pages.
551 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
552
553 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
554 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
555 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
556 functionality for RSA.
557 [Steve Henson]
558
559 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
560 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
561 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
562 [Steve Henson]
563
564 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
565 key API, doesn't do much yet.
566 [Steve Henson]
567
568 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
569 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
570 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
571 [Steve Henson]
572
573 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
574 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
575 [Douglas Stebila]
576
577 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
578 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
579 [Steve Henson]
580
581 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
582 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
583 type.
584 [Steve Henson]
585
586 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
587 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
588 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
589 structure.
590 [Steve Henson]
591
592 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
593 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
594 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
595 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
596 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
597 of public and private key structures.
598 [Steve Henson]
599
600 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
601 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
602 [Douglas Stebila]
603
604 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
605 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
606 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
607
608 New ciphersuites:
609 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
610 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
611
612 New functions:
613 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
614 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
615 SSL_get_psk_identity
616 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
617
618 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
619
620 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
621 and response verification functionality.
622 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
623
624 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
625 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
626 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
627 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
628 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
629 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
630 server_name extension.
631
632 New functions (subject to change):
633
634 SSL_get_servername()
635 SSL_get_servername_type()
636 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
637
638 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
639
640 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
641 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
642 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
643 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
644 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
645
646 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
647
648 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
649 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
650 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
651 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
652 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
653 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
654 option.
655
656 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
657
658 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
659 [Andy Polyakov]
660
661 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
662 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
663 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
664 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
665 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
666 [Andy Polyakov]
667
668 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
669 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
670 macro.
671 [Bodo Moeller]
672
673 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
674 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
675 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
676 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
677 [Andy Polyakov]
678
679 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
680 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
681 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
682 using the maximum available value.
683 [Steve Henson]
684
685 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
686 in addition to the text details.
687 [Bodo Moeller]
688
689 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
690 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
691 handle several customised structures at all.
692 [Steve Henson]
693
694 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
695 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
696 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
697 [Steve Henson]
698
699 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
700 [Steve Henson]
701
702 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
703 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
704 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
705 [Steve Henson]
706
707 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
708 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
709 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
710 [Nils Larsch]
711
712 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
713 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
714 all fields.
715 [Steve Henson]
716
717 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
718 [Steve Henson]
719
720 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
721 [NTT]
722
723 Changes between 0.9.8i and 0.9.8j [xx XXX xxxx]
724
725 *) Set the comparison function in v3_addr_canonize().
726 [Rob Austein <sra@hactrn.net>]
727
728 *) Add support for XMPP STARTTLS in s_client.
729 [Philip Paeps <philip@freebsd.org>]
730
731 *) Change the server-side SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG behavior
732 to ensure that even with this option, only ciphersuites in the
733 server's preference list will be accepted. (Note that the option
734 applies only when resuming a session, so the earlier behavior was
735 just about the algorithm choice for symmetric cryptography.)
736 [Bodo Moeller]
737
738 Changes between 0.9.8h and 0.9.8i [15 Sep 2008]
739
740 *) Fix a state transitition in s3_srvr.c and d1_srvr.c
741 (was using SSL3_ST_CW_CLNT_HELLO_B, should be ..._ST_SW_SRVR_...).
742 [Nagendra Modadugu]
743
744 *) The fix in 0.9.8c that supposedly got rid of unsafe
745 double-checked locking was incomplete for RSA blinding,
746 addressing just one layer of what turns out to have been
747 doubly unsafe triple-checked locking.
748
749 So now fix this for real by retiring the MONT_HELPER macro
750 in crypto/rsa/rsa_eay.c.
751
752 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Marius Schilder]
753
754 *) Various precautionary measures:
755
756 - Avoid size_t integer overflow in HASH_UPDATE (md32_common.h).
757
758 - Avoid a buffer overflow in d2i_SSL_SESSION() (ssl_asn1.c).
759 (NB: This would require knowledge of the secret session ticket key
760 to exploit, in which case you'd be SOL either way.)
761
762 - Change bn_nist.c so that it will properly handle input BIGNUMs
763 outside the expected range.
764
765 - Enforce the 'num' check in BN_div() (bn_div.c) for non-BN_DEBUG
766 builds.
767
768 [Neel Mehta, Bodo Moeller]
769
770 *) Allow engines to be "soft loaded" - i.e. optionally don't die if
771 the load fails. Useful for distros.
772 [Ben Laurie and the FreeBSD team]
773
774 *) Add support for Local Machine Keyset attribute in PKCS#12 files.
775 [Steve Henson]
776
777 *) Fix BN_GF2m_mod_arr() top-bit cleanup code.
778 [Huang Ying]
779
780 *) Expand ENGINE to support engine supplied SSL client certificate functions.
781
782 This work was sponsored by Logica.
783 [Steve Henson]
784
785 *) Add CryptoAPI ENGINE to support use of RSA and DSA keys held in Windows
786 keystores. Support for SSL/TLS client authentication too.
787 Not compiled unless enable-capieng specified to Configure.
788
789 This work was sponsored by Logica.
790 [Steve Henson]
791
792 *) Fix bug in X509_ATTRIBUTE creation: dont set attribute using
793 ASN1_TYPE_set1 if MBSTRING flag set. This bug would crash certain
794 attribute creation routines such as certifcate requests and PKCS#12
795 files.
796 [Steve Henson]
797
798 Changes between 0.9.8g and 0.9.8h [28 May 2008]
799
800 *) Fix flaw if 'Server Key exchange message' is omitted from a TLS
801 handshake which could lead to a cilent crash as found using the
802 Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-1672)
803 [Steve Henson, Mark Cox]
804
805 *) Fix double free in TLS server name extensions which could lead to
806 a remote crash found by Codenomicon TLS test suite (CVE-2008-0891)
807 [Joe Orton]
808
809 *) Clear error queue in SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
810
811 Clear the error queue to ensure that error entries left from
812 older function calls do not interfere with the correct operation.
813 [Lutz Jaenicke, Erik de Castro Lopo]
814
815 *) Remove root CA certificates of commercial CAs:
816
817 The OpenSSL project does not recommend any specific CA and does not
818 have any policy with respect to including or excluding any CA.
819 Therefore it does not make any sense to ship an arbitrary selection
820 of root CA certificates with the OpenSSL software.
821 [Lutz Jaenicke]
822
823 *) RSA OAEP patches to fix two separate invalid memory reads.
824 The first one involves inputs when 'lzero' is greater than
825 'SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH' (it would read about SHA_DIGEST_LENGTH bytes
826 before the beginning of from). The second one involves inputs where
827 the 'db' section contains nothing but zeroes (there is a one-byte
828 invalid read after the end of 'db').
829 [Ivan Nestlerode <inestlerode@us.ibm.com>]
830
831 *) Partial backport from 0.9.9-dev:
832
833 Introduce bn_mul_mont (dedicated Montgomery multiplication
834 procedure) as a candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation.
835 While 0.9.9-dev uses assembler for various architectures, only
836 x86_64 is available by default here in the 0.9.8 branch, and
837 32-bit x86 is available through a compile-time setting.
838
839 To try the 32-bit x86 assembler implementation, use Configure
840 option "enable-montasm" (which exists only for this backport).
841
842 As "enable-montasm" for 32-bit x86 disclaims code stability
843 anyway, in this constellation we activate additional code
844 backported from 0.9.9-dev for further performance improvements,
845 namely BN_from_montgomery_word. (To enable this otherwise,
846 e.g. x86_64, try "-DMONT_FROM_WORD___NON_DEFAULT_0_9_8_BUILD".)
847
848 [Andy Polyakov (backport partially by Bodo Moeller)]
849
850 *) Add TLS session ticket callback. This allows an application to set
851 TLS ticket cipher and HMAC keys rather than relying on hardcoded fixed
852 values. This is useful for key rollover for example where several key
853 sets may exist with different names.
854 [Steve Henson]
855
856 *) Reverse ENGINE-internal logic for caching default ENGINE handles.
857 This was broken until now in 0.9.8 releases, such that the only way
858 a registered ENGINE could be used (assuming it initialises
859 successfully on the host) was to explicitly set it as the default
860 for the relevant algorithms. This is in contradiction with 0.9.7
861 behaviour and the documentation. With this fix, when an ENGINE is
862 registered into a given algorithm's table of implementations, the
863 'uptodate' flag is reset so that auto-discovery will be used next
864 time a new context for that algorithm attempts to select an
865 implementation.
866 [Ian Lister (tweaked by Geoff Thorpe)]
867
868 *) Backport of CMS code to OpenSSL 0.9.8. This differs from the 0.9.9
869 implemention in the following ways:
870
871 Lack of EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD means algorithm parameters have to be
872 hard coded.
873
874 Lack of BER streaming support means one pass streaming processing is
875 only supported if data is detached: setting the streaming flag is
876 ignored for embedded content.
877
878 CMS support is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled
879 with the enable-cms configuration option.
880 [Steve Henson]
881
882 *) Update the GMP engine glue to do direct copies between BIGNUM and
883 mpz_t when openssl and GMP use the same limb size. Otherwise the
884 existing "conversion via a text string export" trick is still used.
885 [Paul Sheer <paulsheer@gmail.com>]
886
887 *) Zlib compression BIO. This is a filter BIO which compressed and
888 uncompresses any data passed through it.
889 [Steve Henson]
890
891 *) Add AES_wrap_key() and AES_unwrap_key() functions to implement
892 RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping.
893 [Steve Henson]
894
895 *) Add utility functions to handle ASN1 structures. ASN1_STRING_set0():
896 sets string data without copying. X509_ALGOR_set0() and
897 X509_ALGOR_get0(): set and retrieve X509_ALGOR (AlgorithmIdentifier)
898 data. Attribute function X509at_get0_data_by_OBJ(): retrieves data
899 from an X509_ATTRIBUTE structure optionally checking it occurs only
900 once. ASN1_TYPE_set1(): set and ASN1_TYPE structure copying supplied
901 data.
902 [Steve Henson]
903
904 *) Fix BN flag handling in RSA_eay_mod_exp() and BN_MONT_CTX_set()
905 to get the expected BN_FLG_CONSTTIME behavior.
906 [Bodo Moeller (Google)]
907
908 *) Netware support:
909
910 - fixed wrong usage of ioctlsocket() when build for LIBC BSD sockets
911 - fixed do_tests.pl to run the test suite with CLIB builds too (CLIB_OPT)
912 - added some more tests to do_tests.pl
913 - fixed RunningProcess usage so that it works with newer LIBC NDKs too
914 - removed usage of BN_LLONG for CLIB builds to avoid runtime dependency
915 - added new Configure targets netware-clib-bsdsock, netware-clib-gcc,
916 netware-clib-bsdsock-gcc, netware-libc-bsdsock-gcc
917 - various changes to netware.pl to enable gcc-cross builds on Win32
918 platform
919 - changed crypto/bio/b_sock.c to work with macro functions (CLIB BSD)
920 - various changes to fix missing prototype warnings
921 - fixed x86nasm.pl to create correct asm files for NASM COFF output
922 - added AES, WHIRLPOOL and CPUID assembler code to build files
923 - added missing AES assembler make rules to mk1mf.pl
924 - fixed order of includes in apps/ocsp.c so that e_os.h settings apply
925 [Guenter Knauf <eflash@gmx.net>]
926
927 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
928 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
929 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
930 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
931 to s_client and s_server.
932 [Steve Henson]
933
934 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.8g [19 Oct 2007]
935
936 *) Fix various bugs:
937 + Binary incompatibility of ssl_ctx_st structure
938 + DTLS interoperation with non-compliant servers
939 + Don't call get_session_cb() without proposed session
940 + Fix ia64 assembler code
941 [Andy Polyakov, Steve Henson]
942
943 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [11 Oct 2007]
944
945 *) DTLS Handshake overhaul. There were longstanding issues with
946 OpenSSL DTLS implementation, which were making it impossible for
947 RFC 4347 compliant client to communicate with OpenSSL server.
948 Unfortunately just fixing these incompatibilities would "cut off"
949 pre-0.9.8f clients. To allow for hassle free upgrade post-0.9.8e
950 server keeps tolerating non RFC compliant syntax. The opposite is
951 not true, 0.9.8f client can not communicate with earlier server.
952 This update even addresses CVE-2007-4995.
953 [Andy Polyakov]
954
955 *) Changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL: some compilers
956 (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use.
957 [Kurt Roeckx <kurt@roeckx.be>, Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>,
958 Steve Henson]
959
960 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
961 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
962 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
963 supported.
964
965 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
966 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
967 SSL_SESSION.
968
969 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
970 protection in servers so again support should be possible
971 with no application modification.
972
973 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
974 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
975
976 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
977 or server extensions to be examined.
978
979 This work was sponsored by Google.
980 [Steve Henson]
981
982 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
983 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
984 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
985 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
986 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
987 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
988 server_name extension.
989
990 New functions (subject to change):
991
992 SSL_get_servername()
993 SSL_get_servername_type()
994 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
995
996 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
997
998 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
999 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
1000 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
1001 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
1002 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
1003
1004 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
1005
1006 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
1007 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
1008 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
1009 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
1010 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
1011 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
1012 option.
1013
1014 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou, Steve Henson]
1015
1016 *) Add AES and SSE2 assembly language support to VC++ build.
1017 [Steve Henson]
1018
1019 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
1020 [Andy Polyakov]
1021
1022 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
1023 (which previously caused an internal error).
1024 [Bodo Moeller]
1025
1026 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
1027 [Ben Laurie]
1028
1029 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
1030 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
1031
1032 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
1033 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
1034 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
1035
1036 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
1037 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
1038 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
1039 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
1040
1041 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1042 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1043 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
1044 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
1045
1046 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
1047 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
1048 information. For detailed background information, see
1049 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
1050 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
1051 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
1052 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
1053 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
1054 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
1055 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
1056 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
1057 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
1058 remove a conditional branch.
1059
1060 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
1061 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
1062 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
1063 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
1064 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
1065 remains as a deprecated alias.
1066
1067 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
1068 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
1069 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
1070 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
1071
1072 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
1073 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
1074 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
1075 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
1076 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
1077 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
1078 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
1079 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
1080
1081 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
1082
1083 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
1084 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
1085 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1086 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1087 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1088 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1089 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1090 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1091 in a different context.
1092 [Bodo Moeller]
1093
1094 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
1095 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
1096 authentication-only ciphersuites.
1097 [Bodo Moeller]
1098
1099 *) Update the SSL_get_shared_ciphers() fix CVE-2006-3738 which was
1100 not complete and could lead to a possible single byte overflow
1101 (CVE-2007-5135) [Ben Laurie]
1102
1103 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
1104
1105 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
1106 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
1107 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
1108 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
1109 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
1110 [Victor Duchovni]
1111
1112 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
1113 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
1114 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
1115 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
1116 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
1117 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
1118 [Bodo Moeller]
1119
1120 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
1121 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
1122 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
1123 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
1124 message has informed the client about his choice.)
1125 [Bodo Moeller]
1126
1127 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
1128 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
1129
1130 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
1131 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
1132 Improve header file function name parsing.
1133 [Steve Henson]
1134
1135 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
1136 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
1137 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
1138
1139 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
1140
1141 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
1142 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
1143 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1144
1145 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
1146 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
1147
1148 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
1149 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1150
1151 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
1152 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
1153 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1154
1155 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
1156 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
1157 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
1158 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
1159 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
1160 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
1161 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
1162 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
1163 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
1164
1165 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
1166 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
1167 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
1168 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
1169 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
1170
1171 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
1172 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
1173 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
1174 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
1175 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
1176 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
1177 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
1178 multiple values to extend the available space.
1179
1180 [Bodo Moeller]
1181
1182 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
1183
1184 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1185 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
1186
1187 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
1188 [Ben Laurie]
1189
1190 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1191 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1192 undesirable limitations.
1193 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1194
1195 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
1196 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
1197 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
1198 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
1199 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
1200 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
1201 to avoid potential handshake problems.
1202 [Bodo Moeller]
1203
1204 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1205
1206 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1207 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1208 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1209
1210 The latter two were purportedly from
1211 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1212 appear there.
1213
1214 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
1215 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1216 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1217 [Bodo Moeller]
1218
1219 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1220 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1221 [Bodo Moeller]
1222
1223 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
1224 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
1225 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
1226 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
1227
1228 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
1229 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
1230 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
1231 [NTT]
1232
1233 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
1234 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
1235 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
1236 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
1237 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
1238 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
1239 [Steve Henson]
1240
1241 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
1242
1243 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
1244 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
1245 [Steve Henson]
1246
1247 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
1248 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
1249
1250 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1251 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
1252 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
1253 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
1254 [Douglas Stebila]
1255
1256 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
1257 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
1258 [Steve Henson]
1259
1260 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
1261 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
1262 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
1263 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
1264 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
1265 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
1266 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
1267 can't be loaded.
1268 [Steve Henson]
1269
1270 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
1271 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
1272 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
1273 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
1274 [Steve Henson]
1275
1276 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
1277 under VC++ build system.
1278 [Steve Henson]
1279
1280 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
1281 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
1282 [Richard Levitte]
1283
1284 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
1285
1286 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1287 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1288 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1289 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
1290 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
1291
1292 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
1293 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
1294 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
1295
1296 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
1297 [Steve Henson]
1298
1299 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
1300 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1301 [Nils Larsch]
1302
1303 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
1304 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
1305
1306 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
1307 [Nick Mathewson]
1308
1309 *) Extended Windows CE support.
1310 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
1311
1312 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
1313 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
1314 [Steve Henson]
1315
1316 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
1317 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
1318 smime utility.
1319 [Steve Henson]
1320
1321 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
1322
1323 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1324 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1325
1326 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
1327 [Richard Levitte]
1328
1329 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
1330 key into the same file any more.
1331 [Richard Levitte]
1332
1333 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
1334 [Andy Polyakov]
1335
1336 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
1337 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
1338
1339 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
1340 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
1341 [Richard Levitte]
1342
1343 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
1344 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
1345 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
1346 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
1347 this only applies when building 'shared'.
1348 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
1349
1350 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
1351 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
1352 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
1353 [Steve Henson]
1354
1355 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
1356 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
1357 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
1358 - add new function for parameter creation
1359 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
1360 BN_BLINDING parameters
1361 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
1362 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
1363 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
1364 threads.
1365 [Nils Larsch]
1366
1367 *) Add support for DTLS.
1368 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
1369
1370 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
1371 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
1372 [Walter Goulet]
1373
1374 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
1375 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
1376 [Nils Larsch]
1377
1378 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
1379 the apps/openssl applications.
1380 [Nils Larsch]
1381
1382 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
1383 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
1384 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
1385 [Ben Laurie]
1386
1387 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
1388 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
1389
1390 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
1391 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
1392
1393 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
1394 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
1395 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
1396 avoid this algorithm.)
1397
1398 [Bodo Moeller]
1399
1400 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
1401 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
1402 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
1403 [Richard Levitte]
1404
1405 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
1406 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
1407 [Andy Polyakov]
1408
1409 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
1410 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
1411 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
1412 pod file:
1413
1414 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
1415
1416 The blank line is mandatory.
1417
1418 [Steve Henson]
1419
1420 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
1421 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
1422 sources.
1423 [Steve Henson]
1424
1425 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
1426 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
1427
1428 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
1429 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
1430 to support policy checking and print out.
1431 [Steve Henson]
1432
1433 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
1434 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
1435 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
1436 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
1437
1438 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
1439 [Geoff Thorpe]
1440
1441 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1442 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1443
1444 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
1445 implementation contributed by IBM.
1446 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1447
1448 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
1449 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
1450 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
1451 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1452
1453 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1454 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1455
1456 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1457 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1458 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1459 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1460 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1461 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
1462 [Steve Henson]
1463
1464 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1465 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1466 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1467 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1468 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1469 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1470 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1471 [Geoff Thorpe]
1472
1473 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1474 [Steve Henson]
1475
1476 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1477 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1478 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1479 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1480 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1481 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1482 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1483 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1484 [Steve Henson]
1485
1486 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1487 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1488 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1489 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1490 [Steve Henson]
1491
1492 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1493 syntax:
1494
1495 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1496 [Steve Henson]
1497
1498 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1499 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1500 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1501 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1502 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1503 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1504 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1505 [Geoff Thorpe]
1506
1507 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1508 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1509 [Geoff Thorpe]
1510
1511 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1512 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1513 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1514 [Steve Henson]
1515
1516 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1517 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1518 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1519 below).
1520 [Geoff Thorpe]
1521
1522 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1523 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
1524 [Richard Levitte]
1525
1526 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1527 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1528 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1529 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1530 [Geoff Thorpe]
1531
1532 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1533 initialised value as BN_new().
1534 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1535
1536 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1537 [Steve Henson]
1538
1539 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1540 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1541 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1542 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1543 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1544 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1545 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1546 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1547 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1548 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1549 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1550 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1551 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1552 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
1553 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
1554
1555 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1556 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1557 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1558 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1559 [Geoff Thorpe]
1560
1561 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1562 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1563 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1564 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1565 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1566 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1567 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1568 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1569 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1570 [Geoff Thorpe]
1571
1572 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1573 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1574 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1575 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1576 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1577 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1578 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1579 [Geoff Thorpe]
1580
1581 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
1582 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1583 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1584 these have been updated also.
1585 [Geoff Thorpe]
1586
1587 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1588 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1589 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1590 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1591 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1592 functions.
1593 [Steve Henson]
1594
1595 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1596 structure of type "other".
1597 [Steve Henson]
1598
1599 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1600 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1601 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1602 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1603 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1604 situation in the script.
1605 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1606
1607 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1608 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1609 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1610 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1611 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1612 used as premaster secret.
1613 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1614
1615 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1616 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1617 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1618
1619 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1620 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1621
1622 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1623 control of the error stack.
1624 [Richard Levitte]
1625
1626 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1627 [Richard Levitte]
1628
1629 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1630 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1631 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1632 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1633 [Richard Levitte]
1634
1635 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1636 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1637 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1638 [Richard Levitte]
1639
1640 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1641 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1642 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1643 a memory area.
1644 [Richard Levitte]
1645
1646 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1647 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1648 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1649 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1650 [Richard Levitte]
1651
1652 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1653 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1654 the following flags are defined:
1655
1656 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1657 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1658 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1659 number.
1660
1661 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1662 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1663 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1664 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1665 returns zero.
1666 [Richard Levitte]
1667
1668 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1669 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1670 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1671 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1672 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1673 [Richard Levitte]
1674
1675 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1676 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1677 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1678 [Richard Levitte]
1679
1680 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1681 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1682 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1683 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1684 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1685 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1686 [Richard Levitte]
1687
1688 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1689 req and dirName.
1690 [Steve Henson]
1691
1692 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1693 [Steve Henson]
1694
1695 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1696 [Steve Henson]
1697
1698 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1699 [Steve Henson]
1700
1701 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1702 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1703 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1704 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1705 default implementation more easily.
1706 [Geoff Thorpe]
1707
1708 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1709 in config files.
1710 [Steve Henson]
1711
1712 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1713 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1714 [Richard Levitte]
1715
1716 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1717 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1718 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1719 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1720
1721 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
1722 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1723 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1724 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1725 [Steve Henson]
1726
1727 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1728 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1729 to do it.
1730 [Richard Levitte]
1731
1732 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
1733 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
1734 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
1735 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
1736 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1737 scalar * generator).
1738 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1739
1740 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1741 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1742 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1743 correctly.
1744 [Steve Henson]
1745
1746 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1747 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1748 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1749 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1750 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1751 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1752 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1753 linker additions, eg;
1754 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1755 [Geoff Thorpe]
1756
1757 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1758 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1759 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1760 [Geoff Thorpe]
1761
1762 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1763 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1764 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1765 via PR#459)
1766 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1767
1768 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1769 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1770 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1771 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1772 [Geoff Thorpe]
1773
1774 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1775 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1776 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1777 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1778 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1779 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1780 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1781 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1782 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1783 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
1784
1785 Example for using the new callback interface:
1786
1787 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1788 void *my_arg = ...;
1789 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1790
1791 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1792
1793 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1794 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1795 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1796 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1797 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1798 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1799 */
1800
1801 [Geoff Thorpe]
1802
1803 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1804 available to TLS with the number defined in
1805 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1806 [Richard Levitte]
1807
1808 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1809 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1810
1811 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
1812 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1813 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1814 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
1815
1816 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1817 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1818
1819 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1820 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1821 well.
1822 [Richard Levitte]
1823
1824 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
1825 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
1826 [Richard Levitte]
1827
1828 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
1829 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
1830 and a macro that behave like
1831 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
1832
1833 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
1834 [Nils Larsch]
1835
1836 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
1837 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
1838 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
1839 if applicable.
1840 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1841
1842 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
1843 [Bodo Moeller]
1844
1845 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1846 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1847 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1848 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1849 directory engines/.
1850 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1851 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1852 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1853 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
1854 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1855 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1856 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
1857 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
1858
1859 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
1860 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
1861 [Richard Levitte]
1862
1863 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
1864 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
1865
1866 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
1867 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
1868 files while avoiding the low level API.
1869
1870 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
1871 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
1872 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
1873 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
1874
1875 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
1876 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
1877 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
1878 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
1879 instead of the low level API.
1880 [Steve Henson]
1881
1882 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
1883 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
1884 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
1885 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
1886 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
1887 PKCS#7 code.
1888
1889 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
1890 down to the template encoder.
1891 [Steve Henson]
1892
1893 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
1894 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
1895 [Bodo Moeller]
1896
1897 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
1898 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
1899 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
1900 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1901
1902 *) Add ECDH engine support.
1903 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1904
1905 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
1906 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1907
1908 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
1909 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
1910 [Bodo Moeller]
1911
1912 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
1913 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
1914 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
1915 [Bodo Moeller]
1916
1917 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
1918 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
1919
1920 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1921 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1922
1923 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
1924 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
1925 New EC_METHOD:
1926
1927 EC_GF2m_simple_method
1928
1929 New API functions:
1930
1931 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
1932 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
1933 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
1934 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1935 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1936 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
1937
1938 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
1939 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
1940 enable it).
1941
1942 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
1943 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
1944 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
1945 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
1946 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
1947 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
1948 various internal method names.)
1949
1950 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
1951 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
1952
1953 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1954 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1955
1956 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
1957 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
1958
1959 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
1960 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
1961 methods are undefined.
1962
1963 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1964 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1965
1966 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
1967 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
1968 length of the modulus.
1969
1970 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1971 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1972
1973 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
1974 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
1975
1976 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1977 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1978
1979 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
1980 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
1981 used) in the following functions [macros]:
1982
1983 BN_GF2m_add
1984 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
1985 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
1986 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
1987 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
1988 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
1989 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
1990 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
1991 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
1992 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
1993
1994 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
1995 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
1996
1997 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
1998 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
1999 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
2000 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
2001 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
2002 where
2003 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
2004 This applies to the following functions:
2005
2006 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
2007 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
2008 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
2009 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
2010 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
2011 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
2012 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
2013 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
2014 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
2015 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
2016
2017 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
2018
2019 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
2020 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
2021
2022 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
2023
2024 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
2025 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
2026 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
2027 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
2028 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
2029
2030 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
2031 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
2032
2033 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
2034 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
2035 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
2036
2037 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
2038 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
2039
2040 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
2041 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
2042 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
2043 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
2044 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2045
2046 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
2047 functions
2048 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
2049 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
2050 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
2051 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
2052 These control ASN1 encoding details:
2053 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
2054 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
2055 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
2056 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
2057 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
2058 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
2059 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
2060
2061 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
2062 functions
2063 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
2064 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
2065 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
2066 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
2067 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2068
2069 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
2070 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
2071 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
2072 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2073
2074 *) Add functions
2075 EC_POINT_point2bn()
2076 EC_POINT_bn2point()
2077 EC_POINT_point2hex()
2078 EC_POINT_hex2point()
2079 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
2080 EC_POINT_oct2point().
2081 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2082
2083 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
2084 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
2085 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
2086 EC_GROUP_get_order()
2087 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
2088 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
2089 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
2090 adding different types of curves.
2091 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
2092
2093 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
2094 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
2095 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
2096 [Bodo Moeller]
2097
2098 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
2099 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
2100
2101 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
2102 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
2103 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
2104 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2105
2106 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
2107
2108 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
2109 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
2110
2111 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
2112 library. Most notably,
2113 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
2114 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
2115 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
2116 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
2117 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
2118 extracted before the specific public key;
2119 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
2120 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
2121
2122 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
2123 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
2124 function
2125 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
2126 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
2127 EC_get_builtin_curves().
2128 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
2129 accessed via
2130 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
2131 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
2132 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
2133
2134 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
2135 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
2136 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
2137 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
2138 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
2139 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
2140 differing sizes.
2141 [Richard Levitte]
2142
2143 Changes between 0.9.7m and 0.9.7n [xx XXX xxxx]
2144
2145 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
2146 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
2147 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
2148 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
2149 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
2150 with applications using a single external cache for quite
2151 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
2152 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
2153 in a different context.
2154 [Bodo Moeller]
2155
2156 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
2157
2158 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
2159 sensitive data.
2160 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
2161
2162 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
2163 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
2164 authentication-only ciphersuites.
2165 [Bodo Moeller]
2166
2167 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
2168 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
2169 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
2170 [Victor Duchovni]
2171
2172 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
2173 [Steve Henson]
2174
2175 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
2176 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
2177 [Steve Henson]
2178
2179 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
2180 run algorithm test programs.
2181 [Steve Henson]
2182
2183 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
2184 [Steve Henson]
2185
2186 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
2187 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
2188 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
2189 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
2190 message has informed the client about his choice.)
2191 [Bodo Moeller]
2192
2193 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
2194 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
2195 [Steve Henson]
2196
2197 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
2198
2199 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
2200 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
2201 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
2202
2203 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
2204 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
2205
2206 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
2207 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2208
2209 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
2210 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
2211 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
2212
2213 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
2214 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
2215 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
2216 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
2217 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
2218 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
2219 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
2220 [Bodo Moeller]
2221
2222 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
2223
2224 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
2225 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
2226
2227 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
2228 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
2229 undesirable limitations.
2230 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
2231
2232 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
2233
2234 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
2235 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
2236 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
2237
2238 The latter two were purportedly from
2239 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
2240 appear there.
2241
2242 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
2243 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
2244 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
2245 [Bodo Moeller]
2246
2247 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
2248 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
2249 [Bodo Moeller]
2250
2251 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
2252
2253 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
2254 module in FIPS mode.
2255 [Steve Henson]
2256
2257 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
2258 [Steve Henson]
2259
2260 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
2261 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
2262 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
2263 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
2264 [Steve Henson]
2265
2266 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
2267
2268 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
2269 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
2270 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
2271 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
2272 the difference induced by this change.
2273 [Andy Polyakov]
2274
2275 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
2276
2277 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
2278 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
2279 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
2280 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
2281 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
2282
2283 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
2284 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
2285 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
2286
2287 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
2288 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
2289 [Steve Henson]
2290
2291 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
2292 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
2293 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
2294 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
2295 biased k.)
2296 [Bodo Moeller]
2297
2298 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
2299 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
2300 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
2301 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
2302 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
2303
2304 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
2305 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
2306 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
2307 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
2308 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
2309 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
2310
2311 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
2312
2313 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
2314 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
2315 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
2316 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
2317 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
2318 [Bodo Moeller]
2319
2320 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
2321 clients need.
2322 [Steve Henson]
2323
2324 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
2325 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
2326 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
2327 [Steve Henson]
2328
2329 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
2330 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
2331 structures constant.
2332 [Steve Henson]
2333
2334 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
2335
2336 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
2337 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
2338
2339 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
2340 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
2341 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
2342 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
2343 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
2344 some needed definitions.
2345 [Steve Henson]
2346
2347 *) Undo Cygwin change.
2348 [Ulf Möller]
2349
2350 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
2351 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
2352 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
2353 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
2354 [Richard Levitte]
2355
2356 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
2357
2358 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
2359 server and client random values. Previously
2360 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
2361 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
2362
2363 This change has negligible security impact because:
2364
2365 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
2366 data.
2367
2368 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
2369 handshake.
2370
2371 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
2372 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
2373 values.
2374
2375 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
2376 to our attention.
2377
2378 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
2379
2380 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
2381 [Ulf Möller]
2382
2383 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
2384 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
2385 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
2386
2387 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
2388 [Steve Henson]
2389
2390 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
2391 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
2392 [Andy Polyakov]
2393
2394 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
2395 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
2396 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
2397
2398 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
2399 [Steve Henson]
2400
2401 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
2402 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
2403 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
2404 certificates.
2405 [Steve Henson]
2406
2407 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
2408 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
2409 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
2410 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
2411
2412 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
2413 has chosen to ignore this fault)
2414 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
2415 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
2416 been given)
2417 [Richard Levitte]
2418
2419 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
2420
2421 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
2422 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
2423 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
2424 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
2425 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
2426 [Steve Henson]
2427
2428 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
2429 [Steve Henson]
2430
2431 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
2432 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
2433
2434 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
2435 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
2436 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
2437 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
2438 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
2439 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
2440 rather than being initialized to 1.
2441 [Steve Henson]
2442
2443 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
2444
2445 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
2446 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
2447 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2448
2449 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
2450 (CVE-2004-0112)
2451 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2452
2453 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2454 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2455 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2456 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2457 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2458 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2459 [Richard Levitte]
2460
2461 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
2462 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
2463 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
2464 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
2465 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
2466 for these cases.
2467 [Steve Henson]
2468
2469 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
2470 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2471 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2472 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
2473 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
2474 [Steve Henson]
2475
2476 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
2477 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
2478 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
2479 < 0.9.7.
2480 [Steve Henson]
2481
2482 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
2483 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2484
2485 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
2486 [Steve Henson]
2487
2488 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
2489
2490 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
2491
2492 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
2493 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
2494
2495 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
2496
2497 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
2498 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
2499
2500 [Steve Henson]
2501
2502 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
2503 exiting on the first error in a request.
2504 [Steve Henson]
2505
2506 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
2507 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
2508 specifications.
2509 [Steve Henson]
2510
2511 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
2512 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
2513 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
2514 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
2515
2516 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
2517 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
2518 [Richard Levitte]
2519
2520 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
2521 blocks during encryption.
2522 [Richard Levitte]
2523
2524 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
2525 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
2526 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
2527 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
2528 certain size.
2529 [Steve Henson]
2530
2531 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
2532 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
2533 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
2534 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
2535 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
2536 parser.
2537 [Steve Henson]
2538
2539 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
2540
2541 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
2542 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
2543 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
2544 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
2545 [Bodo Moeller]
2546
2547 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
2548 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
2549 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
2550 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
2551 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2552
2553 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2554 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2555 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
2556 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2557 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2558 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2559 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2560 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2561 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
2562 [Bodo Moeller]
2563
2564 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
2565 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
2566 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
2567 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
2568 [Geoff Thorpe]
2569
2570 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
2571 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
2572 [Ulf Moeller]
2573
2574 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
2575
2576 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2577 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
2578 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
2579 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
2580 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
2581
2582 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
2583 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
2584 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
2585
2586 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
2587 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
2588 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
2589 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
2590 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
2591
2592 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
2593 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
2594 used by default when no-err is given.
2595 [Richard Levitte]
2596
2597 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
2598 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
2599
2600 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
2601 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
2602 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
2603 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
2604 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
2605
2606 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2607 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2608 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2609 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2610
2611 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2612
2613 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2614
2615 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2616
2617 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2618 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2619 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2620 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2621 root is omitted).
2622 [Steve Henson]
2623
2624 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
2625 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2626
2627 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
2628 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
2629 [Steve Henson]
2630
2631 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2632 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2633 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
2634 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
2635 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2636
2637 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
2638 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
2639 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
2640 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
2641 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
2642 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2643 followup to PR #377.
2644 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2645
2646 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
2647 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
2648 [Andy Polyakov]
2649
2650 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
2651 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
2652 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
2653 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
2654
2655 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
2656
2657 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
2658 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
2659
2660 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
2661 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
2662 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
2663 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
2664 client and server.
2665 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2666 PR #377.
2667 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2668
2669 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
2670 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
2671 removed entirely.
2672 [Richard Levitte]
2673
2674 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
2675 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
2676 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
2677 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
2678 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
2679 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
2680 of libcrypto.
2681 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
2682 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
2683 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
2684 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
2685 have to be made anyway).
2686 [Richard Levitte]
2687
2688 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
2689 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
2690 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
2691 [Steve Henson]
2692
2693 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
2694 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
2695 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
2696 [Richard Levitte]
2697
2698 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
2699 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
2700 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2701
2702 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
2703 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
2704 edit numbers of the version.
2705 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2706
2707 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
2708 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
2709 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
2710
2711 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
2712 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2713
2714 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2715 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2716 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2717
2718 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
2719 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2720
2721 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
2722 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2723
2724 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
2725 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2726
2727 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
2728 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2729
2730 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
2731 overflows.
2732 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2733
2734 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
2735 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
2736 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2737
2738 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
2739 representations in a platform independent manner.
2740 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2741
2742 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2743 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2744 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2745
2746 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
2747 indents.
2748 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2749
2750 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
2751 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2752
2753 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
2754 full. Fixed.
2755 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2756
2757 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
2758 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
2759 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2760
2761 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
2762 unconditionally).
2763 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2764
2765 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
2766 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2767
2768 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
2769 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2770
2771 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
2772 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2773
2774 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
2775 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2776
2777 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
2778 CBCParameter.
2779 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2780
2781 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
2782 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2783
2784 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
2785 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2786
2787 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
2788 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
2789 exploitable.
2790 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2791
2792 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
2793 the 0.9.6 release series:
2794
2795 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
2796 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
2797 (CVE-2002-0657)
2798 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2799
2800 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
2801 [Richard Levitte]
2802
2803 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
2804 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
2805
2806 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
2807 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
2808
2809 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
2810 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
2811 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
2812 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
2813
2814 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
2815 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
2816 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
2817
2818 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
2819 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
2820 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
2821 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2822
2823 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
2824 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
2825 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
2826 some local tweaks:
2827
2828 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
2829 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
2830 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
2831 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2832 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2833 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
2834 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
2835 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
2836 done
2837
2838 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
2839 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
2840 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
2841 [Richard Levitte]
2842
2843 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
2844 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
2845 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
2846 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
2847 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
2848
2849 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
2850 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
2851
2852 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
2853 error in AES-CFB decryption.
2854 [Richard Levitte]
2855
2856 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
2857 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
2858 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
2859 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
2860 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
2861 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
2862 [Steve Henson]
2863
2864 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
2865 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
2866 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
2867 [Steve Henson]
2868
2869 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
2870 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
2871 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2872
2873 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
2874 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
2875 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
2876 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
2877 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
2878 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
2879 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
2880 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2881
2882 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
2883 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
2884 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
2885 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
2886 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
2887 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
2888 [Steve Henson]
2889
2890 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
2891 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
2892 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
2893 declaration has been changed from
2894 int (*cb)()
2895 into
2896 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
2897 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
2898 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
2899 has been changed into
2900 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
2901
2902 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
2903 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
2904 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
2905
2906 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
2907 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
2908
2909 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
2910 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
2911 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
2912 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
2913 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
2914 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
2915 always load it have also been added.
2916 [Steve Henson]
2917
2918 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
2919 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
2920 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2921
2922 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
2923
2924 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
2925 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
2926 because it couldn't be used for anything.
2927
2928 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
2929 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
2930 command line option can be used to specify an
2931 alternative file.
2932 [Steve Henson]
2933
2934 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
2935 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
2936 [Steve Henson]
2937
2938 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
2939 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
2940 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
2941 [Steve Henson]
2942
2943 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
2944 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2945 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
2946 to work with the new engine framework.
2947 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
2948
2949 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
2950 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2951 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
2952 to work with the new engine framework.
2953 [Richard Levitte]
2954
2955 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
2956 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
2957 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
2958
2959 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
2960 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
2961
2962 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
2963 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
2964 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
2965 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
2966 FORMAT_IISSGC.
2967 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2968
2969 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2970 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2971
2972 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
2973 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
2974
2975 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
2976 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
2977 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
2978 [Ben Laurie]
2979
2980 *) Add new functions
2981 ERR_peek_last_error
2982 ERR_peek_last_error_line
2983 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
2984 These are similar to
2985 ERR_peek_error
2986 ERR_peek_error_line
2987 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
2988 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
2989 still in the error queue.
2990 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
2991
2992 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
2993 like:
2994 default_algorithms = ALL
2995 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
2996 [Steve Henson]
2997
2998 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
2999 [Steve Henson]
3000
3001 *) New experimental application configuration code.
3002 [Steve Henson]
3003
3004 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
3005 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
3006 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
3007 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
3008
3009 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
3010 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
3011
3012 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
3013 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
3014
3015 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
3016 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
3017 [Bodo Moeller]
3018
3019 *) New functions/macros
3020
3021 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
3022 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
3023 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
3024 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
3025
3026 to request calling a callback function
3027
3028 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
3029 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
3030
3031 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
3032 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
3033 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
3034 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
3035 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
3036 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
3037 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
3038 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
3039 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
3040 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
3041
3042 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
3043 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
3044 [Bodo Moeller]
3045
3046 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
3047 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
3048 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
3049 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
3050 the configuration scripts.
3051
3052 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
3053 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
3054 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
3055
3056 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
3057 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
3058
3059 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
3060 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
3061 when reusing an existing buffer.
3062 [Bodo Moeller]
3063
3064 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
3065 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
3066 [Steve Henson]
3067
3068 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
3069 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
3070 [Ben Laurie]
3071
3072 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
3073 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
3074 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
3075 has the same effect.
3076 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
3077
3078 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
3079 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
3080 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
3081 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
3082 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
3083 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
3084 exception.
3085
3086 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
3087 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
3088 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
3089 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
3090
3091 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
3092 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
3093 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
3094 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
3095
3096 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
3097 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
3098 won't work.
3099
3100 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
3101 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
3102 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
3103 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
3104 default), and then completely removed.
3105 [Richard Levitte]
3106
3107 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
3108 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
3109 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
3110 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
3111 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
3112 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
3113 particular extension is supported.
3114 [Steve Henson]
3115
3116 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
3117 to retain compatibility with existing code.
3118 [Steve Henson]
3119
3120 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
3121 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
3122 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
3123 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
3124 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
3125 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
3126 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
3127 requires the destination to be valid.
3128
3129 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
3130 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
3131 [Steve Henson]
3132
3133 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
3134 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
3135 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
3136 [Bodo Moeller]
3137
3138 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
3139 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
3140
3141 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
3142 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
3143 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
3144 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
3145 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
3146 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
3147 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
3148 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
3149 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
3150 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
3151 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
3152 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
3153 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
3154 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
3155 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
3156 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
3157 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
3158 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
3159 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
3160 the new code.
3161 [Geoff Thorpe]
3162
3163 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
3164 [Steve Henson]
3165
3166 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
3167 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
3168 become part of libeay.num as well.
3169 [Richard Levitte]
3170
3171 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
3172 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
3173 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
3174 false once a handshake has been completed.
3175 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
3176 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
3177 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
3178 client has followed the request.)
3179 [Bodo Moeller]
3180
3181 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
3182 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
3183 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
3184 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
3185
3186 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
3187 more bits available for options that should not be part of
3188 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
3189 [Bodo Moeller]
3190
3191 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
3192 [Steve Henson]
3193
3194 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
3195 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
3196 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
3197 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3198
3199 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
3200 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
3201 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3202
3203 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
3204 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
3205 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
3206 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
3207 [Geoff Thorpe]
3208
3209 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
3210 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
3211 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
3212 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
3213 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
3214 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
3215 [Geoff Thorpe]
3216
3217 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
3218 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
3219 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
3220 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
3221 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
3222 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
3223 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
3224 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
3225 [Geoff Thorpe]
3226
3227 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
3228 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
3229 [Geoff Thorpe]
3230
3231 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
3232 [Ben Laurie]
3233
3234 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
3235 md_data void pointer.
3236 [Ben Laurie]
3237
3238 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
3239 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
3240 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
3241 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
3242 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
3243 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
3244 [Ben Laurie]
3245
3246 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
3247 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
3248 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
3249 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
3250 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
3251 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
3252 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
3253 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
3254 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
3255 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
3256 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
3257 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
3258 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
3259 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
3260 rather than letting it slide.
3261
3262 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
3263 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
3264 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
3265 [Geoff Thorpe]
3266
3267 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
3268 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
3269 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
3270 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
3271 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
3272 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
3273 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
3274 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
3275 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
3276 [Geoff Thorpe]
3277
3278 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
3279 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
3280 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
3281 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
3282 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
3283
3284 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
3285 [Geoff Thorpe]
3286
3287 *) Add EVP test program.
3288 [Ben Laurie]
3289
3290 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
3291 [Ben Laurie]
3292
3293 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
3294 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
3295 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
3296 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
3297 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
3298 [Steve Henson]
3299
3300 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
3301 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
3302 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
3303 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
3304 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
3305 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
3306 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
3307
3308 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
3309 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
3310 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
3311 Usage example:
3312
3313 EVP_MD_CTX md;
3314
3315 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
3316 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
3317 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
3318 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
3319 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
3320
3321 [Ben Laurie]
3322
3323 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
3324 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
3325 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
3326 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
3327 anyway): E.g.,
3328
3329 des_key_schedule ks;
3330
3331 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
3332 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
3333
3334 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
3335 [Ben Laurie]
3336
3337 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
3338 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
3339 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
3340 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
3341 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
3342 functions prevents this.
3343 [Steve Henson]
3344
3345 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
3346 [Ben Laurie]
3347
3348 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
3349 correct _ecb suffix.
3350 [Ben Laurie]
3351
3352 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
3353 revocation information is handled using the text based index
3354 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
3355 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
3356 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
3357 [Steve Henson]
3358
3359 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
3360 [Richard Levitte]
3361
3362 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
3363 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
3364 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
3365 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
3366
3367 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
3368 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
3369
3370 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
3371 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
3372 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
3373 via Richard Levitte]
3374
3375 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
3376 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
3377 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
3378 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
3379 [Geoff Thorpe]
3380
3381 *) Speed up EVP routines.

3397 [Ben Laurie]
3398
3399 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
3400 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
3401
3402 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
3403 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
3404 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
3405 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
3406 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
3407 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
3408 [Steve Henson]
3409
3410 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
3411 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
3412 [Richard Levitte]
3413
3414 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
3415 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
3416 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
3417 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
3418
3419 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
3420 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
3421 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
3422 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
3423 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
3424 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
3425 callback.
3426 [Richard Levitte]
3427
3428 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
3429 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
3430 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
3431 and interrupts/cancellations.
3432 [Richard Levitte]
3433
3434 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
3435 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
3436 [Steve Henson]
3437
3438 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
3439 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
3440 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
3441
3442 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
3443 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
3444 kind of callback.
3445 [Richard Levitte]
3446
3447 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
3448 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
3449 than this minimum value is recommended.
3450 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3451
3452 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
3453 that are easily reachable.
3454 [Richard Levitte]
3455
3456 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
3457 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
3458
3459 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
3460
3461 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
3462 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
3463 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
3464 needed for static libraries under Win32.
3465 [Steve Henson]
3466
3467 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
3468 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
3469 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
3470 [Steve Henson]
3471
3472 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
3473 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3474 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3475 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3476 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3477 internally such as S/MIME.
3478
3479 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3480 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3481 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3482
3483 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3484 applications.
3485 [Steve Henson]
3486
3487 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
3488 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3489 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3490 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3491
3492 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3493
3494 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3495
3496 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3497 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3498 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3499 handling.
3500 [Steve Henson]
3501
3502 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
3503 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3504 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3505 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3506 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3507 a window system and the like.
3508 [Richard Levitte]
3509
3510 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
3511 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3512 [Geoff]
3513
3514 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
3515 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3516 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3517 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3518 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3519 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3520 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3521 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3522 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3523 ENGINE structure.
3524 [Geoff]
3525
3526 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
3527 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3528 tag cache.
3529 [Steve Henson]
3530
3531 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
3532 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3533 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3534 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3535 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3536 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3537 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3538 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3539 [Geoff]
3540
3541 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
3542 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3543 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3544 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3545 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3546 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3547 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3548 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3549 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3550 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3551 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3552 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3553 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3554 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3555 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3556 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3557 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3558 [Geoff]
3559
3560 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
3561 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3562 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3563 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3564 internal engine_int.h header.
3565 [Geoff]
3566
3567 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
3568 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3569 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3570 modify their own ones).
3571 [Geoff]
3572
3573 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
3574 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3575 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3576 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3577 later on via ctrl() commands.
3578 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3579 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3580 structural references.
3581 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3582 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3583 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3584 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3585 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
3586 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
3587 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3588 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3589 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3590 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3591 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3592 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
3593 [Geoff]
3594
3595 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
3596 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
3597 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3598 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3599 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3600 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3601 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3602 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
3603 [Bodo Moeller]
3604
3605 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
3606 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3607 [Steve Henson]
3608
3609 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
3610 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3611 [Steve Henson]
3612
3613 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
3614 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3615 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3616 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3617 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3618 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3619 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
3620 [Steve Henson]
3621
3622 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
3623 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
3624 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
3625 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
3626 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
3627
3628 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
3629 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
3630 generator).
3631 [Bodo Moeller]
3632
3633 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
3634
3635 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3636 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3637 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
3638
3639 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
3640 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
3641
3642 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
3643 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
3644 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
3645
3646 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
3647 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
3648
3649 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
3650 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
3651
3652 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
3653
3654 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
3655 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
3656 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
3657 [Bodo Moeller]
3658
3659 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
3660 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
3661 [Richard Levitte]
3662
3663 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
3664 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
3665 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
3666 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
3667 is 40 of more characters long.
3668 [Steve Henson]
3669
3670 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
3671 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
3672 pointers.
3673 [Steve Henson]
3674
3675 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
3676 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
3677 [Bodo Moeller]
3678
3679 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
3680 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
3681 might.
3682 [Steve Henson]
3683
3684 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
3685
3686 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
3687 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
3688
3689 ASN1 error codes
3690 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
3691 ...
3692 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
3693 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
3694 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
3695 ...
3696 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
3697 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
3698
3699 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
3700 [Bodo Moeller]
3701
3702 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
3703 suffices.
3704 [Bodo Moeller]
3705
3706 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
3707 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
3708 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
3709 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
3710 and
3711 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
3712
3713 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
3714 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
3715
3716 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
3717 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3718 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3719 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3720 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3721 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3722
3723 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3724 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3725
3726 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3727 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3728
3729 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3730 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3731
3732 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3733 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3734 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3735 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3736
3737 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
3738 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
3739
3740 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
3741 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
3742
3743 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3744 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3745 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3746 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3747 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
3748 [Richard Levitte]
3749
3750 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
3751 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3752 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3753 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
3754 [Steve Henson]
3755
3756 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
3757 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
3758 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
3759 trust settings.
3760 [Steve Henson]
3761
3762 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
3763 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3764 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3765 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
3766 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
3767 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3768 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3769 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3770 ocsp utility.
3771 [Steve Henson]
3772
3773 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
3774 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
3775 [Steve Henson]
3776
3777 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
3778 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3779 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3780 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3781 [Steve Henson]
3782
3783 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
3784 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3785 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3786 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3787 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3788 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3789 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3790 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3791 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3792 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3793 [Steve Henson]
3794
3795 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
3796 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3797 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3798 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3799 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3800 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3801 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3802 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3803
3804 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
3805 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3806 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3807 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3808 [Richard Levitte]
3809
3810 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
3811 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
3812 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3813 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3814 opensslconf.h.
3815 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3816 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3817 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3818 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3819 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3820 what is available.
3821 [Richard Levitte]
3822
3823 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
3824 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
3825 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
3826 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
3827 auto incremented.
3828 [Steve Henson]
3829
3830 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
3831 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
3832 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
3833 [Steve Henson]
3834
3835 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
3836 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
3837 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
3838 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
3839 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
3840 [Steve Henson]
3841
3842 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
3843 [Steve Henson]
3844
3845 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
3846 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
3847 option to ocsp utility.
3848 [Steve Henson]
3849
3850 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
3851 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3852 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3853 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3854 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
3855 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
3856 the request is nonce-less.
3857 [Steve Henson]
3858
3859 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
3860 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
3861 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
3862 [Bodo Moeller]
3863
3864 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
3865 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
3866 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
3867 [Steve Henson]
3868
3869 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
3870 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
3871 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
3872 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
3873 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
3874 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3875
3876 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
3877 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
3878 appear to exist.
3879 [Steve Henson]
3880
3881 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
3882 additional certificates supplied.
3883 [Steve Henson]
3884
3885 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
3886 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
3887 signature against.
3888 [Richard Levitte]
3889
3890 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
3891 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
3892 AES OIDs.
3893
3894 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
3895 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
3896 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
3897 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
3898 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
3899 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
3900 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
3901 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
3902 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3903
3904 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
3905 request to response.
3906 [Steve Henson]
3907
3908 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
3909 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
3910 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
3911 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
3912 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
3913 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
3914 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
3915 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
3916 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
3917 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
3918 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
3919 [Steve Henson]
3920
3921 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
3922 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
3923 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
3924 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
3925 [Steve Henson]
3926
3927 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
3928 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3929
3930 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
3931 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
3932 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
3933 [Steve Henson]
3934
3935 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
3936 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
3937 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
3938 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3939 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3940
3941 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
3942 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
3943 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
3944 [Steve Henson]
3945
3946 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
3947 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
3948 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
3949 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
3950 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
3951 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
3952 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3953 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3954
3955 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
3956 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
3957 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
3958 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
3959 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
3960 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
3961 [Steve Henson]
3962
3963 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
3964 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
3965 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
3966 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
3967 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
3968 printout format cleaned up.
3969 [Steve Henson]
3970
3971 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
3972 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
3973 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
3974 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
3975 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
3976 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
3977 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
3978 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
3979 [Steve Henson]
3980
3981 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
3982 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
3983 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
3984 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
3985 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
3986 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
3987 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
3988 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
3989 [Steve Henson]
3990
3991 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
3992 extensions from a separate configuration file.
3993 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
3994 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
3995 section to use.
3996 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3997
3998 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
3999 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
4000 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
4001 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
4002 [Steve Henson]
4003
4004 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
4005 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
4006 the given serial number (according to the index file).
4007 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
4008 in the index file.
4009 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
4010
4011 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
4012 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
4013 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
4014 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
4015
4016 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
4017 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
4018
4019 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
4020 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
4021 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
4022 [Steve Henson]
4023
4024 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
4025 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
4026 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
4027 [Bodo Moeller]
4028
4029 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
4030 file name and line number information in additional arguments
4031 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
4032 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
4033 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
4034 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
4035 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
4036 functions are provided:
4037
4038 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
4039 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
4040 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
4041 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
4042
4043 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
4044 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
4045 extended allocation function is enabled.
4046 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
4047 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
4048 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
4049
4050 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
4051 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
4052 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
4053 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
4054 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
4055 [Geoff Thorpe]
4056
4057 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
4058 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
4059 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
4060 be queried.
4061 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
4062 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
4063 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
4064 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4065
4066 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
4067 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
4068 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
4069 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
4070 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
4071 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
4072 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
4073 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
4074 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
4075 [Richard Levitte]
4076
4077 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
4078 provide utility functions which an application needing
4079 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
4080 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
4081 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
4082
4083 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
4084 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
4085 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
4086 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
4087 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
4088 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
4089 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
4090 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
4091 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
4092
4093 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
4094 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
4095 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
4096 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
4097 [Steve Henson]
4098
4099 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
4100 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
4101 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
4102 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
4103 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
4104 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
4105 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
4106 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
4107 will be added elsewhere.
4108 [Steve Henson]
4109
4110 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
4111 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
4112 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
4113 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
4114 [Steve Henson]
4115
4116 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
4117 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
4118 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
4119 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
4120 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
4121 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
4122 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
4123 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
4124 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
4125 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
4126 to produce the required SET OF.
4127 [Steve Henson]
4128
4129 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
4130 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
4131 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
4132 [Richard Levitte]
4133
4134 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
4135 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
4136 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
4137 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
4138 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
4139 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
4140 [Steve Henson]
4141
4142 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
4143 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
4144 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
4145 [Steve Henson]
4146
4147 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
4148 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
4149 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
4150 [Richard Levitte]
4151
4152 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
4153 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
4154 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
4155 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
4156 code will still work when these eventually go away.
4157 [Steve Henson]
4158
4159 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
4160 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
4161 [Steve Henson]
4162
4163 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
4164 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
4165 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
4166 certifcates and CRLs.
4167 [Steve Henson]
4168
4169 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
4170 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
4171 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
4172 [Steve Henson]
4173
4174 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
4175 entries for variables.
4176 [Steve Henson]
4177
4178 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
4179 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
4180 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
4181 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
4182 [Bodo Moeller]
4183
4184 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
4185 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
4186 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
4187 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
4188 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
4189 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
4190 [Bodo Moeller]
4191
4192 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
4193 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
4194
4195 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
4196 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
4197 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
4198 [Steve Henson]
4199
4200 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
4201 print routines.
4202 [Steve Henson]
4203
4204 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
4205 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
4206 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
4207 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
4208 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
4209 order did not reflect the encoded order.
4210 [Steve Henson]
4211
4212 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
4213 [Steve Henson]
4214
4215 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
4216 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
4217 for now but they will eventually go away.
4218 [Steve Henson]
4219
4220 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
4221 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
4222 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
4223 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
4224 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
4225 has also been converted to the new form.
4226 [Steve Henson]
4227
4228 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
4229 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
4230 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
4231 for negative moduli.
4232 [Bodo Moeller]
4233
4234 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
4235 of not touching the result's sign bit.
4236 [Bodo Moeller]
4237
4238 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
4239 set.
4240 [Bodo Moeller]
4241
4242 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
4243 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
4244 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
4245 type-specific callbacks.
4246 [Geoff Thorpe]
4247
4248 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
4249 RFC 2712.
4250 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
4251 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
4252
4253 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
4254 in sections depending on the subject.
4255 [Richard Levitte]
4256
4257 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
4258 Windows.
4259 [Richard Levitte]
4260
4261 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
4262 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
4263 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
4264 be handled deterministically).
4265 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
4266
4267 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
4268 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
4269 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
4270 [Bodo Moeller]
4271
4272 *) New function BN_kronecker.
4273 [Bodo Moeller]
4274
4275 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
4276 positive unless both parameters are zero.
4277 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
4278 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
4279 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
4280 [Bodo Moeller]
4281
4282 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
4283 sign of the number in question.
4284
4285 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
4286
4287 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
4288 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
4289 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
4290 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
4291 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
4292 [Bodo Moeller]
4293
4294 *) New function BN_swap.
4295 [Bodo Moeller]
4296
4297 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
4298 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
4299 results on negative inputs.
4300 [Bodo Moeller]
4301
4302 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
4303 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
4304 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
4305 [Bodo Moeller]
4306
4307 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
4308 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
4309 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
4310 and add new functions:
4311
4312 BN_nnmod
4313 BN_mod_sqr
4314 BN_mod_add
4315 BN_mod_add_quick
4316 BN_mod_sub
4317 BN_mod_sub_quick
4318 BN_mod_lshift1
4319 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
4320 BN_mod_lshift
4321 BN_mod_lshift_quick
4322
4323 These functions always generate non-negative results.
4324
4325 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
4326 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
4327
4328 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
4329 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
4330 be reduced modulo m.
4331 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
4332
4333 #if 0
4334 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
4335 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
4336 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
4337
4338 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
4339 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
4340 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
4341 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
4342 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
4343 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
4344 differing sizes.
4345 [Richard Levitte]
4346 #endif
4347
4348 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
4349 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
4350 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
4351 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
4352 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
4353
4354 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
4355 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
4356 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
4357 cause any problems.
4358 [Bodo Moeller]
4359
4360 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
4361 [Richard Levitte]
4362
4363 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
4364 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
4365 [Richard Levitte]
4366
4367 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
4368 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
4369 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
4370 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
4371 time)
4372 [Richard Levitte]
4373
4374 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
4375 [Richard Levitte]
4376
4377 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
4378 [Richard Levitte]
4379
4380 *) Add the following functions:
4381
4382 ENGINE_load_cswift()
4383 ENGINE_load_chil()
4384 ENGINE_load_atalla()
4385 ENGINE_load_nuron()
4386 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
4387
4388 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
4389 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
4390 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
4391 libraries unless it's really needed.
4392
4393 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
4394 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
4395 declarations (they differed!).
4396 [Richard Levitte]
4397
4398 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
4399 [Richard Levitte]
4400
4401 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
4402 [Richard Levitte]
4403
4404 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
4405 [Bodo Moeller]
4406
4407 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
4408 identity, and test if they are actually available.
4409 [Richard Levitte]
4410
4411 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
4412 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
4413 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
4414
4415 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
4416 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
4417 [Richard Levitte]
4418
4419 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
4420 [Richard Levitte]
4421
4422 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
4423 [Richard Levitte]
4424
4425 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
4426 [Ben Laurie]
4427
4428 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
4429 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
4430 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
4431
4432 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
4433 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
4434 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
4435 different shared library filenames on each system.
4436 [Geoff Thorpe]
4437
4438 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
4439 [Richard Levitte]
4440
4441 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
4442 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
4443 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
4444 of two sections.
4445 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
4446
4447 *) NCONF changes.
4448 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4449 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4450 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4451 binary backward compatibility.
4452 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
4453 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
4454 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
4455 LDAP server.
4456 [Richard Levitte]
4457
4458 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
4459 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
4460 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
4461 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
4462 this case.
4463 [Steve Henson]
4464
4465 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
4466 [Ben Laurie]
4467
4468 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
4469 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
4470 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
4471 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
4472 set.
4473 [Steve Henson]
4474
4475 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
4476 [Richard Levitte]
4477
4478 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
4479
4480 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4481 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4482 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4483
4484 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
4485
4486 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
4487
4488 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
4489 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
4490 [Steve Henson]
4491
4492 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
4493
4494 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4495
4496 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4497 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4498
4499 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4500 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4501
4502 [Steve Henson]
4503
4504 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4505 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4506 specifications.
4507 [Steve Henson]
4508
4509 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4510 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4511 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4512 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4513
4514 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4515 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4516 [Richard Levitte]
4517
4518 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
4519
4520 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4521 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4522 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4523 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4524 [Bodo Moeller]
4525
4526 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4527 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4528 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4529 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4530 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4531
4532 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4533 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4534 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4535 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4536 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4537 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4538 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4539 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4540 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4541 [Bodo Moeller]
4542
4543 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
4544
4545 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4546 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4547 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4548 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4549 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4550
4551 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4552 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4553 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4554
4555 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
4556
4557 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
4558 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4559 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4560 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
4561 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
4562 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
4563 [Geoff Thorpe]
4564
4565 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
4566 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
4567 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
4568 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
4569 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
4570 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4571
4572 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
4573 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
4574 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
4575
4576 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
4577 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
4578 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
4579 EVP_cleanup().
4580 [Richard Levitte]
4581
4582 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
4583 being properly terminated.
4584 [Richard Levitte]
4585
4586 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
4587 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
4588 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
4589 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
4590
4591 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
4592 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
4593 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
4594 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
4595 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
4596 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
4597 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
4598 change.
4599 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
4600
4601 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
4602 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
4603 [Bodo Moeller]
4604
4605 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
4606 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
4607 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
4608 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
4609 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
4610 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
4611 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
4612 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
4613
4614 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
4615 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
4616 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
4617 (see [openssl.org #212]).
4618 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4619
4620 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
4621 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
4622 [Steve Henson]
4623
4624 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
4625
4626 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
4627 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
4628 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
4629
4630 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
4631
4632 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
4633 and get fix the header length calculation.
4634 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
4635 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
4636 Steve Henson]
4637
4638 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4639 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4640 assertions could call abort()).
4641 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
4642
4643 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4644
4645 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4646 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4647 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4648 supplied buffer.
4649 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4650
4651 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4652 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4653 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4654 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4655
4656 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4657 [Nils Larsch]
4658
4659 *) New option
4660 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4661 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4662 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4663
4664 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4665 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4666 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4667 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4668 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4669 applications.
4670 [Bodo Moeller]
4671
4672 *) Changes in security patch:
4673
4674 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4675 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4676 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4677 F30602-01-2-0537.
4678
4679 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4680 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4681 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4682 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
4683 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4684
4685 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
4686 happen in practice.
4687 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4688
4689 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
4690 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
4691 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
4692
4693 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4694 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
4695 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4696
4697 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
4698 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
4699 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4700
4701 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
4702
4703 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
4704 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
4705 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
4706
4707 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
4708 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4709
4710 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4711 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4712 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4713 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4714 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
4715 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
4716 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4717
4718 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4719 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4720 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4721 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4722 [Bodo Moeller]
4723
4724 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4725 [Bodo Moeller]
4726
4727 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4728 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4729 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4730 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4731 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4732 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4733
4734 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4735 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4736 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4737 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4738 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4739 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4740
4741 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4742 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4743 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4744 BN_generate_prime().)
4745
4746 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4747 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4748 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4749 better.
4750 [Bodo Moeller]
4751
4752 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4753 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4754 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4755
4756 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4757 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4758 when using non-blocking I/O.
4759 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4760
4761 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4762 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4763
4764 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4765 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4766 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4767
4768 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4769 configuration for the versions before that.
4770 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4771
4772 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4773 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4774 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4775 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4776 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4777
4778 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4779 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4780 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4781 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4782
4783 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4784 value is 0.
4785 [Richard Levitte]
4786
4787 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4788 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4789 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4790
4791 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4792 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4793
4794 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4795 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4796 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4797 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4798 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4799 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4800 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4801 session cache.
4802
4803 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4804 using a local variable.
4805 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4806
4807 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4808 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4809 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4810
4811 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4812 [Richard Levitte]
4813
4814 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4815 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4816
4817 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4818 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4819 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4820
4821 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4822
4823 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4824 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4825 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4826 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4827 [Bodo Moeller]
4828
4829 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4830 present.
4831 [Steve Henson]
4832
4833 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4834 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4835 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4836 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4837 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4838
4839 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4840 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4841 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4842
4843 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4844 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4845 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4846
4847 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4848 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4849 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4850 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4851
4852 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4853 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4854 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4855 modules).
4856 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
4857
4858 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4859 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
4860 from 0.9.7.
4861 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
4862
4863 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4864 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
4865 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4866 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
4867
4868 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4869 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
4870 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4871 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
4872
4873 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
4874 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
4875
4876 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
4877 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
4878 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
4879 [Bodo Moeller]
4880
4881 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
4882 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
4883 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
4884 become invalid.
4885 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
4886
4887 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
4888 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
4889 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
4890 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
4891 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
4892 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
4893 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
4894 [Bodo Moeller]
4895
4896 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
4897 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
4898 one of the SSL handshake functions.
4899 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
4900
4901 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
4902 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
4903 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
4904 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
4905 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
4906 the client will at least see that alert.
4907 [Bodo Moeller]
4908
4909 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
4910 correctly.
4911 [Bodo Moeller]
4912
4913 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
4914 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
4915 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4916
4917 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
4918 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
4919 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
4920 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
4921 HelloRequest.
4922
4923 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
4924 before just sending a HelloRequest.
4925 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
4926
4927 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
4928 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
4929 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
4930 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
4931 may leak via logfiles.)
4932
4933 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
4934 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
4935 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
4936 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
4937 the legal range.
4938 [Bodo Moeller]
4939
4940 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
4941 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4942 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4943
4944 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
4945 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
4946 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
4947 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
4948 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
4949 [Bodo Moeller]
4950
4951 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
4952 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
4953
4954 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
4955 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
4956 followed by modular reduction.
4957 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
4958
4959 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
4960 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
4961 [Bodo Moeller]
4962
4963 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
4964 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
4965 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
4966 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
4967 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4968
4969 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
4970 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4971
4972 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
4973 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
4974 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4975
4976 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
4977 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
4978 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
4979 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
4980 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
4981 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
4982 automatically.
4983 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
4984
4985 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
4986 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
4987 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
4988 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
4989 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
4990
4991 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
4992 [Andy Polyakov]
4993
4994 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
4995 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
4996 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
4997 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
4998 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
4999 to allow the necessary settings.
5000 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5001
5002 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
5003 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
5004 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
5005 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
5006 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5007
5008 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
5009 dh->length and always used
5010
5011 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
5012
5013 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
5014 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
5015 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
5016 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
5017 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
5018 dh->length.
5019
5020 So switch back to
5021
5022 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
5023
5024 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
5025 otherwise.
5026 [Bodo Moeller]
5027
5028 *) In
5029
5030 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
5031 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
5032 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
5033 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
5034
5035 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
5036 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
5037 always reject numbers >= n.
5038 [Bodo Moeller]
5039
5040 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
5041 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
5042 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
5043 variable) is not atomic.
5044 [Bodo Moeller]
5045
5046 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
5047 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
5048 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
5049 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
5050
5051 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
5052 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
5053
5054 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
5055 little-endian MIPS.
5056 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
5057
5058 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
5059 [Richard Levitte]
5060
5061 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
5062
5063 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
5064 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
5065 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
5066 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
5067 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
5068 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
5069 to traverse all of 'state'.
5070
5071 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
5072 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
5073 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
5074
5075 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
5076 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
5077
5078 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
5079 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
5080 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
5081 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
5082 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
5083 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
5084 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
5085 further strengthens the PRNG.
5086 [Bodo Moeller]
5087
5088 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
5089 [Andy Polyakov]
5090
5091 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
5092 an error message in this case.
5093 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5094
5095 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
5096 [Steve Henson]
5097
5098 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
5099 positive and less than q.
5100 [Bodo Moeller]
5101
5102 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
5103 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
5104 that itself.
5105 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
5106
5107 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
5108 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
5109 [Bodo Moeller]
5110
5111 *) Fix OAEP check.
5112 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
5113
5114 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
5115 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
5116 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
5117 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
5118 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
5119 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
5120 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
5121 paper.)
5122
5123 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
5124 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
5125 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
5126 detect the supposedly ignored error.
5127
5128 Both problems are now fixed.
5129 [Bodo Moeller]
5130
5131 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
5132 (previously it was 1024).
5133 [Bodo Moeller]
5134
5135 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
5136 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
5137 [Steve Henson]
5138
5139 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
5140 [Steve Henson]
5141
5142 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
5143 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
5144 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
5145 [Steve Henson]
5146
5147 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
5148 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
5149 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
5150 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
5151 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
5152 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
5153 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
5154 environment variables.
5155
5156 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
5157 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
5158 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
5159 [Bodo Moeller]
5160
5161 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
5162 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
5163 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
5164 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
5165 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
5166 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
5167 [Bodo Moeller]
5168
5169 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
5170 versions of 'test'.
5171 [Bodo Moeller]
5172
5173 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
5174
5175 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
5176 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
5177
5178 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
5179 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
5180 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
5181 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
5182 CygWin.
5183 [Richard Levitte]
5184
5185 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
5186 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
5187 amount of data available.
5188 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
5189 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5190
5191 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
5192 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
5193 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
5194 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
5195 [Bodo Moeller]
5196
5197 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
5198 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
5199 and UnixWare.
5200 [Richard Levitte]
5201
5202 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
5203 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
5204 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
5205 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
5206 [Ulf Moeller]
5207
5208 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
5209 [Andy Polyakov]
5210
5211 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
5212 [Richard Levitte]
5213
5214 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
5215 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
5216 [Steve Henson]
5217 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5218
5219 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
5220 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
5221 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
5222 (but broken) behaviour.
5223 [Steve Henson]
5224
5225 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
5226 it when found.
5227 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
5228
5229 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
5230 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
5231 [Bodo Moeller]
5232
5233 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
5234 did not exist.
5235 [Bodo Moeller]
5236
5237 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
5238 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
5239
5240 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
5241 [Richard Levitte]
5242
5243 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
5244 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
5245 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
5246
5247 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
5248 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
5249 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
5250 [Steve Henson]
5251
5252 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
5253 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
5254 [Ulf Moeller]
5255
5256 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
5257 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
5258
5259 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
5260
5261 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
5262
5263 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
5264 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
5265 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
5266 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
5267 [Bodo Moeller]
5268
5269 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
5270 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5271
5272 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
5273 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
5274 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5275
5276 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
5277 was empty.
5278 [Steve Henson]
5279 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5280
5281 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
5282 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
5283 but the code is actually correct.
5284 [Steve Henson]
5285
5286 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
5287 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
5288 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
5289 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
5290 and leaves the highest bit random.
5291 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
5292
5293 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
5294 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
5295 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
5296 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
5297 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
5298 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
5299 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
5300 [Bodo Moeller]
5301
5302 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
5303 [Ulf Moeller]
5304
5305 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
5306 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
5307 [Steve Henson]
5308
5309 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
5310 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
5311 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
5312 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
5313 headers.
5314 [Richard Levitte]
5315
5316 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
5317 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
5318 and break the signature.
5319 [Steve Henson]
5320 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
5321
5322 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
5323 DH ciphersuites.
5324 [Steve Henson]
5325
5326 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
5327 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
5328 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
5329 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
5330 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
5331 [Bodo Moeller]
5332
5333 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
5334 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
5335
5336 *) ./config script fixes.
5337 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
5338
5339 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
5340 [Bodo Moeller]
5341
5342 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
5343 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
5344 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
5345 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
5346 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
5347
5348 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
5349 call failed, free the DSA structure.
5350 [Bodo Moeller]
5351
5352 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
5353 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
5354 [Steve Henson]
5355
5356 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
5357 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
5358 when writing a 32767 byte record.
5359 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
5360
5361 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
5362 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
5363
5364 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
5365 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
5366 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
5367 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
5368 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
5369
5370 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
5371 [Bodo Moeller]
5372
5373 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
5374 [Ulf Möller]
5375
5376 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
5377 [Ulf Möller]
5378
5379 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
5380 [Bodo Moeller]
5381
5382 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
5383 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
5384 [Bodo Moeller]
5385
5386 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
5387 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
5388 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
5389 result of the server certificate verification.)
5390 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5391
5392 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
5393 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
5394 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
5395 [Bodo Moeller]
5396
5397 *) Fix SSL_peek:
5398 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
5399 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
5400 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
5401 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
5402 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
5403 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
5404 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
5405 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
5406 [Bodo Moeller]
5407
5408 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
5409 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
5410 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
5411 happening the other way round.
5412 [Geoff Thorpe]
5413
5414 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
5415 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5416 [Bodo Moeller]
5417
5418 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5419 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5420 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5421 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5422 [Richard Levitte]
5423
5424 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5425 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5426
5427 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5428
5429 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5430 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5431 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5432 that.
5433
5434 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5435
5436 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5437
5438 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5439 static ones.
5440 [Richard Levitte]
5441
5442 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5443
5444 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5445 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5446 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5447 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5448 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5449
5450 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5451 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5452 matter what.
5453 [Richard Levitte]
5454
5455 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5456 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5457
5458 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
5459
5460 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5461 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5462 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5463 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5464 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
5465 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
5466 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5467 by the Finished messages.
5468 [Bodo Moeller]
5469
5470 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5471 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5472
5473 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5474 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5475 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5476 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5477 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5478 appropriately.
5479 [Steve Henson]
5480
5481 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5482 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5483 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5484 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5485 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5486 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5487 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5488 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5489 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5490 together.
5491 [Steve Henson]
5492
5493 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5494 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5495 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5496 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5497
5498 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5499 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5500 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5501 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5502 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5503 the answer.
5504
5505 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5506 been tested well enough.
5507 [Richard Levitte]
5508
5509 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
5510 it can return incorrect results.
5511 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
5512 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
5513 [Bodo Moeller]
5514
5515 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5516 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5517 include zero length content when signing messages.
5518 [Steve Henson]
5519
5520 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
5521 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
5522 [Bodo Möller]
5523
5524 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
5525 [Richard Levitte]
5526
5527 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5528 wrong sign.
5529 [Ulf Möller]
5530
5531 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5532 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5533 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5534 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5535 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5536 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5537 [Richard Levitte]
5538
5539 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
5540 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5541
5542 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
5543 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
5544
5545 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
5546 random number < q in the DSA library.
5547 [Ulf Möller]
5548
5549 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5550 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5551 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5552 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5553 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5554 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5555 just makes things more complicated.)
5556 [Bodo Moeller]
5557
5558 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5559 from EGD.
5560 [Ben Laurie]
5561
5562 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5563 work better on such systems.
5564 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5565
5566 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5567 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5568 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5569 [Steve Henson]
5570
5571 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5572 if there was more than one signature.
5573 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5574
5575 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5576 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5577 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5578 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5579 [Richard Levitte]
5580
5581 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5582 rather than always using the current time.
5583 [Steve Henson]
5584
5585 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5586 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5587 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5588 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5589 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5590 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
5591
5592 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5593 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
5594
5595 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
5596
5597 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5598 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5599 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5600 the same hash value.
5601
5602 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5603 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5604 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5605 with X509_STORE internally.
5606
5607 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5608 exact match, rather than just subject name.
5609
5610 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5611 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5612 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5613 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5614 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5615 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5616 entirely (maybe later...).
5617
5618 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5619
5620 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5621 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5622 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5623 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5624 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5625 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5626 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5627 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5628
5629 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5630 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5631
5632 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5633 to customise the verify behaviour.
5634 [Steve Henson]
5635
5636 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5637 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5638 [Steve Henson]
5639
5640 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5641 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5642 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5643 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5644 request is improperly encoded.
5645 [Steve Henson]
5646
5647 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
5648 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
5649 BIO_write(b, ...).
5650
5651 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
5652 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
5653
5654 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
5655 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
5656 words set to zero.)
5657 [Bodo Moeller]
5658
5659 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
5660 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
5661 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
5662 [Bodo Moeller]
5663
5664 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
5665 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
5666 BIO/fp routines also added.
5667 [Steve Henson]
5668
5669 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
5670 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
5671
5672 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
5673 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
5674 demos/state_machine.
5675 [Ben Laurie]
5676
5677 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
5678 generation and verification.
5679 [Steve Henson]
5680
5681 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
5682 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
5683 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5684 encode and decode it manually.
5685 [Steve Henson]
5686
5687 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
5688 compile under VC++.
5689 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
5690
5691 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
5692 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
5693 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
5694 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
5695
5696 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5697 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5698 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5699 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5700 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5701 [Steve Henson]
5702
5703 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5704 [Richard Levitte]
5705
5706 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5707 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5708 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5709
5710 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5711 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5712 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5713 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5714 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5715 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5716 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5717 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5718
5719 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5720 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5721
5722 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5723
5724 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5725 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5726 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
5727
5728 [Richard Levitte]
5729
5730 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5731 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5732 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5733 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5734 [Richard Levitte]
5735
5736 *) MD4 implemented.
5737 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
5738
5739 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5740 [Richard Levitte]
5741
5742 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5743 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5744 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5745 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5746 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5747 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5748 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5749 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5750 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5751 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5752 short or long names are found.
5753 [Steve Henson]
5754
5755 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
5756 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
5757
5758 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5759 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5760 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5761 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5762
5763 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5764 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5765 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5766 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5767 [Bodo Moeller]
5768
5769 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5770 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5771 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5772 [Richard Levitte]
5773
5774 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5775 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5776 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5777 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5778 to allow the various flags to be set.
5779 [Steve Henson]
5780
5781 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5782 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5783 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5784 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5785 dates to be checked.
5786 [Steve Henson]
5787
5788 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5789 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5790 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5791 [Steve Henson]
5792
5793 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5794 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5795 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5796 [Steve Henson]
5797
5798 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5799 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5800 [Bodo Moeller]
5801
5802 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5803 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5804 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5805 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5806 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
5807 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
5808 [Richard Levitte]
5809
5810 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5811 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5812 Random Numbers.
5813 [Ulf Möller]
5814
5815 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5816 DSA key.
5817 [Steve Henson]
5818
5819 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5820 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5821 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5822 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5823 form signing output easier to verify.
5824 [Steve Henson]
5825
5826 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5827 [Steve Henson]
5828
5829 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5830 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5831 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5832 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5833 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5834 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5835 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5836 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5837 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5838 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5839 [Steve Henson]
5840
5841 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5842
5843 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5844 the syntax given in objects.README.
5845 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5846 obj_mac.h.
5847 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5848 obj_mac.h.
5849
5850 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5851 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5852 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5853 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5854 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5855 consistent name changes.
5856 [Richard Levitte]
5857
5858 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
5859 [Bodo Moeller]
5860
5861 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
5862 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
5863 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
5864 environment variable, or the default random state file.
5865 [Richard Levitte]
5866
5867 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
5868 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
5869 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
5870 of safestack.h .
5871 [Steve Henson]
5872
5873 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
5874 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
5875 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
5876 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
5877 [Steve Henson]
5878
5879 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
5880 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
5881 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
5882 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
5883 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
5884 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
5885 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
5886 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
5887 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
5888 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
5889 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
5890 [Steve Henson]
5891
5892 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
5893 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
5894 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
5895 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
5896 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
5897 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
5898 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
5899 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
5900 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
5901 algorithm to openssl-dev.
5902 [Steve Henson]
5903
5904 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
5905 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
5906 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
5907 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
5908
5909 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
5910 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
5911 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
5912 omit any duplicate addresses.
5913 [Steve Henson]
5914
5915 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
5916 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
5917 [Bodo Moeller]
5918
5919 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
5920 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
5921 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
5922 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
5923 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
5924 [Bodo Moeller]
5925
5926 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
5927 software:
5928 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
5929 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
5930 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
5931 Free => OPENSSL_free
5932 [Richard Levitte]
5933
5934 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
5935 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
5936 [Bodo Moeller]
5937
5938 *) CygWin32 support.
5939 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
5940
5941 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
5942 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
5943 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
5944 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
5945 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
5946 approach.
5947 [Geoff Thorpe]
5948
5949 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
5950 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
5951 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
5952 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
5953 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
5954 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
5955 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
5956 [Geoff Thorpe]
5957
5958 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
5959 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
5960 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
5961 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
5962 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
5963 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
5964 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
5965 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
5966 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
5967 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
5968 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
5969 [Bodo Moeller]
5970
5971 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
5972 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
5973 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
5974 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
5975 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
5976
5977 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
5978 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
5979 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
5980 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
5981 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
5982
5983 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
5984 ciphers.
5985
5986 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
5987 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
5988 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
5989 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
5990
5991 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
5992
5993 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
5994 of macros.
5995
5996 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
5997 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
5998 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
5999 flags.
6000
6001 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
6002 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
6003 any installed hardware versions can.
6004 [Steve Henson]
6005
6006 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
6007 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
6008 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
6009 number.
6010 [Bodo Moeller]
6011
6012 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
6013 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
6014 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
6015 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
6016 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
6017
6018 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
6019 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
6020 [Steve Henson]
6021
6022 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
6023 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
6024 [Richard Levitte]
6025
6026 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
6027 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
6028 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
6029 features.
6030 [Steve Henson]
6031
6032 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
6033 [Ulf Möller]
6034
6035 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
6036 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
6037 but no ssl client purpose.
6038 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
6039
6040 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
6041 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
6042 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
6043 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
6044 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
6045 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
6046 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
6047 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
6048 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
6049 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
6050 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
6051 [Steve Henson]
6052
6053 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
6054 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
6055 be obtained from the error queue.
6056 [Bodo Moeller]
6057
6058 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
6059 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
6060 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
6061 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
6062 [Bodo Moeller]
6063
6064 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
6065 [Ulf Möller]
6066
6067 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
6068 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
6069 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
6070 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
6071 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
6072 [Geoff Thorpe]
6073
6074 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
6075 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
6076 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
6077 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
6078 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
6079 [Geoff Thorpe]
6080
6081 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
6082 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
6083 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
6084 may not be NULL.
6085 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
6086
6087 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
6088 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
6089 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
6090 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
6091 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
6092 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
6093 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
6094 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
6095 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
6096 or "the configuration storage API"...
6097
6098 The new configuration file reading functions are:
6099
6100 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
6101 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
6102
6103 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
6104
6105 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
6106
6107 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
6108 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
6109 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
6110 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
6111 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
6112 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
6113 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
6114
6115 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
6116 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
6117 [Richard Levitte]
6118
6119 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
6120 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
6121 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
6122 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
6123 [Bodo Moeller]
6124
6125 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
6126 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
6127 them in a portable way.
6128 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
6129
6130 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
6131
6132 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
6133
6134 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
6135 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
6136
6137 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
6138 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
6139 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
6140 <attili@amaxo.com>]
6141
6142 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
6143 was larger than the MD block size.
6144 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
6145
6146 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
6147 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
6148 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
6149 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
6150 components.
6151 [Steve Henson]
6152
6153 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
6154 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
6155 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
6156
6157 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
6158 discouraged.
6159 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
6160
6161 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
6162 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
6163 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
6164 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
6165 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
6166 Additional arguments are always ignored.
6167
6168 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
6169 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
6170
6171 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
6172 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
6173 [Bodo Moeller]
6174
6175 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
6176 [Bodo Moeller]
6177
6178 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
6179 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
6180 its own key.
6181 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
6182 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
6183 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
6184 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
6185 [Bodo Moeller]
6186
6187 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
6188 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
6189 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
6190 does not suppress any output.
6191 [Richard Levitte]
6192
6193 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
6194 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
6195 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
6196 with all the associated security issues.
6197
6198 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
6199 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
6200 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
6201 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
6202 use the value in the default purpose.
6203 [Steve Henson]
6204
6205 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
6206 and fix a memory leak.
6207 [Steve Henson]
6208
6209 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
6210 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
6211 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
6212 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
6213 [Bodo Moeller]
6214
6215 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
6216 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
6217 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
6218 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
6219 [Bodo Moeller]
6220
6221 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
6222 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
6223 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
6224 [Bodo Moeller]
6225
6226 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
6227 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
6228 [Bodo Moeller]
6229
6230 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
6231 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
6232 which was free.
6233 [Steve Henson]
6234
6235 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
6236 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
6237 [Bodo Moeller]
6238
6239 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
6240 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
6241 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
6242 [Bodo Moeller]
6243
6244 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
6245 number generation fails.
6246 [Bodo Moeller]
6247
6248 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
6249 [Bodo Moeller]
6250
6251 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
6252 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
6253
6254 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
6255 [Ulf Möller]
6256
6257 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
6258 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
6259
6260 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
6261 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
6262
6263 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
6264
6265 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
6266 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
6267 [Steve Henson]
6268
6269 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
6270 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
6271
6272 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
6273 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
6274 [Ulf Möller]
6275
6276 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
6277 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
6278 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
6279 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
6280 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
6281 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
6282
6283 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
6284 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
6285 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
6286 for example.
6287 [Steve Henson]
6288
6289 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
6290 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
6291 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
6292 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
6293 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
6294 counter, some don't.)
6295 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
6296 counters or duplicate objects.
6297 [Steve Henson]
6298
6299 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
6300 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
6301 [Steve Henson]
6302
6303 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
6304 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
6305 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
6306
6307 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
6308 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
6309 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
6310 or -rand.
6311 [Ulf Möller]
6312
6313 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
6314 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
6315 [Steve Henson]
6316
6317 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
6318 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
6319 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
6320 cipher list.
6321 [Steve Henson]
6322
6323 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
6324 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
6325 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
6326 [Steve Henson]
6327
6328 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
6329 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
6330 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
6331 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
6332 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
6333 should work without changes.
6334 [Richard Levitte]
6335
6336 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
6337 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
6338 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
6339 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
6340 must be defined. E.g.,
6341 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
6342 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
6343 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
6344 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
6345
6346 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
6347 record layer.
6348 [Bodo Moeller]
6349
6350 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
6351 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
6352 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
6353 [Steve Henson]
6354
6355 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
6356 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
6357 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
6358 request header lines. Some software needs this.
6359 [Steve Henson]
6360
6361 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
6362 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
6363 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
6364 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
6365 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
6366 is prompted for as usual.
6367 [Steve Henson]
6368
6369 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
6370 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
6371 autodetect the card and use it if present.
6372 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
6373
6374 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
6375 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
6376 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
6377 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
6378 [Steve Henson]
6379
6380 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
6381 [Andy Polyakov]
6382
6383 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
6384 of seed file.
6385 [Steve Henson]
6386
6387 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
6388 [Bodo Moeller]
6389
6390 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
6391 [Steve Henson]
6392
6393 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
6394 bits.
6395 [Ulf Möller]
6396
6397 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
6398 [Ulf Möller]
6399
6400 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
6401 [Andy Polyakov]
6402
6403 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
6404 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
6405 [Ulf Möller]
6406
6407 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
6408 options to produce them.
6409 [Steve Henson]
6410
6411 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
6412 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
6413 [Ulf Möller]
6414
6415 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
6416 for p == 0.
6417 [Ulf Möller]
6418
6419 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6420 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6421 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6422 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6423 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6424 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6425 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6426 [Steve Henson]
6427
6428 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
6429 [Steve Henson]
6430
6431 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
6432 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
6433 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
6434 [Bodo Moeller]
6435
6436 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
6437 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
6438
6439 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
6440 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
6441 [Ulf Möller]
6442
6443 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6444 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6445 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6446 has already seen).
6447 [Bodo Moeller]
6448
6449 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6450 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6451
6452 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6453 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6454 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6455 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6456 generation becomes much faster.
6457
6458 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
6459 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6460 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6461 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6462 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6463 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6464 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6465 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6466 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6467 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
6468 [Bodo Moeller]
6469
6470 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
6471 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6472 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6473 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
6474 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6475 trial division stage.
6476 [Bodo Moeller]
6477
6478 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
6479 as ASN1_TIME.
6480 [Steve Henson]
6481
6482 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
6483 [Steve Henson]
6484
6485 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
6486 [Ulf Möller]
6487
6488 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
6489 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
6490 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
6491 the comments.
6492 [Ulf Möller]
6493
6494 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
6495 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
6496 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
6497 [Bodo Moeller]
6498
6499 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
6500 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
6501 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
6502 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6503
6504 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
6505 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
6506 [Steve Henson]
6507
6508 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
6509 [Ulf Möller]
6510
6511 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
6512 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
6513 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
6514 Rabin-Miller iterations.
6515 [Ulf Möller]
6516
6517 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
6518 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
6519 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
6520 [Ulf Möller]
6521
6522 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
6523 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
6524 (instead of parameters) in future.
6525 [Steve Henson]
6526
6527 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
6528 when a new cipher list is set.
6529 [Steve Henson]
6530
6531 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6532 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6533 wrong.
6534
6535 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6536 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6537 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6538
6539 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6540 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6541 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6542 an error is flagged.
6543
6544 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6545 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6546 the readability was also increased :-)
6547 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6548
6549 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6550 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6551 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6552 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6553 as the root CA.
6554 [Steve Henson]
6555
6556 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6557 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6558 [Steve Henson]
6559
6560 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6561 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6562 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6563 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6564 instead.
6565
6566 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6567 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6568 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6569 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
6570 because they handle more complex structures.)
6571 [Steve Henson]
6572
6573 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
6574 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
6575 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
6576 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6577
6578 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
6579 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6580 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
6581 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
6582 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6583 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6584 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
6585 [Ulf Möller]
6586
6587 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6588 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
6589 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
6590 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
6591 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
6592 [Bodo Moeller]
6593
6594 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
6595 [Bodo Moeller]
6596
6597 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6598 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
6599 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6600 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6601 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6602 to use this.
6603
6604 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6605 code.
6606 [Steve Henson]
6607
6608 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6609 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6610 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6611 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6612 [Steve Henson]
6613
6614 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6615 [Ulf Möller]
6616
6617 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6618 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6619 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6620 international characters are used.
6621
6622 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6623 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6624 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6625 in ASN1 order.
6626 [Steve Henson]
6627
6628 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6629 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6630 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6631 request.
6632
6633 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6634 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6635 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6636 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
6637 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
6638 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6639
6640 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6641 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6642 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
6643 be handled by the string table functions.
6644
6645 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6646 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6647 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6648 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6649 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6650 types at all.
6651 [Steve Henson]
6652
6653 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6654 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6655 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6656 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6657 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6658
6659 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6660 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6661 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6662 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
6663 [Bodo Moeller]
6664
6665 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6666 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
6667 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
6668 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6669 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6670 SHA1.
6671 [Andy Polyakov]
6672
6673 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6674 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6675 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6676 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6677 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6678 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6679 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6680 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6681
6682 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6683 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
6684 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
6685 [Steve Henson]
6686
6687 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6688 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6689 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6690 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6691 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6692 support to pkcs8 application.
6693 [Steve Henson]
6694
6695 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6696 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6697 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6698 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6699 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6700 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6701 [Bodo Moeller]
6702
6703 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6704 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6705 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6706 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6707 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6708 consistency.
6709 [Bodo Moeller]
6710
6711 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6712 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6713 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6714 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6715 example.
6716 [Steve Henson]
6717
6718 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6719 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6720 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6721 and any application specific purposes.
6722
6723 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6724 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6725 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6726 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
6727 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
6728 if the certificate is self signed.
6729 [Steve Henson]
6730
6731 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6732 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6733 [Steve Henson]
6734
6735 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6736 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
6737 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
6738 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6739 [Steve Henson]
6740
6741 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6742 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6743 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6744 Update documentation.
6745 [Steve Henson]
6746
6747 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6748 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
6749 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
6750 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6751 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6752 [Steve Henson]
6753
6754 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6755 for details.
6756 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6757
6758 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6759 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6760 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
6761 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6762 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6763 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
6764 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6765 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6766 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6767 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
6768
6769 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6770
6771 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6772 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6773 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6774 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6775 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
6776
6777 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6778 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
6779 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6780 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6781 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6782 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6783 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6784 request additional information:
6785 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6786 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
6787
6788 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6789 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6790 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6791 options.
6792
6793 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6794 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6795
6796 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6797 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6798 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6799
6800 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
6801 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6802
6803 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6804 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6805 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6806 algorithm.
6807 [Steve Henson]
6808
6809 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6810 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6811 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6812
6813 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6814 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6815 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6816 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6817 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6818 included in OpenSSL.
6819 [Steve Henson]
6820
6821 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6822 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6823 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6824 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6825 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6826 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6827 [Bodo Moeller]
6828
6829 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6830 PKCS12 structure.
6831 [Steve Henson]
6832
6833 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6834 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6835 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6836 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6837 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6838 structure.
6839 [Steve Henson]
6840
6841 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6842 need initialising.
6843 [Steve Henson]
6844
6845 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6846 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6847 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6848 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6849 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6850 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6851 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6852 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6853 be maintained manually.
6854
6855 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6856 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
6857 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
6858 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
6859 work because people forget to call this function]
6860 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
6861 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
6862 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
6863 [Steve Henson]
6864
6865 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
6866 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
6867 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
6868 should be discouraged from doing it.
6869 [Ben Laurie]
6870
6871 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
6872 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
6873 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
6874 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
6875 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
6876 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
6877 [Steve Henson]
6878
6879 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
6880 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
6881 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
6882
6883 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
6884 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
6885 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
6886
6887 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
6888 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
6889 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
6890 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
6891 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
6892 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
6893
6894 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
6895 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
6896 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
6897
6898 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
6899 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
6900 and vice versa.
6901
6902 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
6903 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
6904 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
6905 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
6906 [Steve Henson]
6907
6908 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
6909 [Steve Henson]
6910
6911 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
6912 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
6913 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
6914 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
6915 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
6916 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
6917 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
6918 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
6919 keys so we should be OK.
6920
6921 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
6922 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
6923 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
6924 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
6925 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
6926 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
6927 stay in the name of compatibility.
6928
6929 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
6930 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
6931 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
6932
6933 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
6934 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
6935 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
6936 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
6937 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
6938 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
6939 supplied key).
6940 [Steve Henson]
6941
6942 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
6943 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
6944 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
6945 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
6946 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
6947 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
6948 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
6949 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
6950 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
6951 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
6952 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
6953 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
6954 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
6955 [Steve Henson]
6956
6957 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
6958 [Steve Henson]
6959
6960 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
6961 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
6962 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
6963 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
6964 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
6965 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
6966 single self signed certificate. This means that:
6967 openssl verify ss.pem
6968 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
6969 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
6970 is OK.
6971 [Steve Henson]
6972
6973 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
6974 (and add it to external session representation).
6975 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
6976 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
6977 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
6978 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
6979 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
6980 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
6981 security holes.
6982 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
6983
6984 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
6985 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
6986 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
6987 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
6988
6989 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
6990 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
6991 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
6992 [Steve Henson]
6993
6994 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
6995 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
6996 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
6997 code.
6998 [Steve Henson]
6999
7000 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
7001 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
7002 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
7003
7004 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
7005 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
7006 certificate auxiliary information.
7007 [Steve Henson]
7008
7009 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
7010 the 'enc' command.
7011 [Steve Henson]
7012
7013 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
7014 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
7015 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
7016 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
7017 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
7018 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
7019 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
7020 [Richard Levitte]
7021
7022 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
7023 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
7024 [Steve Henson]
7025
7026 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
7027 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
7028 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
7029 manpages and fix a few bugs.
7030 [Steve Henson]
7031
7032 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
7033 [Steve Henson]
7034
7035 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
7036 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
7037 [Steve Henson]
7038
7039 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
7040 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
7041 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
7042 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
7043 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
7044 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
7045 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
7046 using the new 'x509' options.
7047
7048 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
7049 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
7050 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
7051 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
7052 for all purposes.
7053 [Steve Henson]
7054
7055 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
7056 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
7057 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
7058 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
7059 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
7060 [Mark Cox]
7061
7062 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
7063 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
7064 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
7065 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
7066 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
7067 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
7068 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
7069 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
7070 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
7071 the key length and effective key length are equal.
7072 [Steve Henson]
7073
7074 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
7075 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
7076 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
7077 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
7078 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
7079 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
7080 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
7081 [Steve Henson]
7082
7083 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
7084 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
7085 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
7086 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
7087 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
7088 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
7089 openssl.cnf for more info.
7090 [Steve Henson]
7091
7092 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
7093 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
7094 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
7095 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
7096 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
7097 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
7098 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
7099 md should be large enough anyway.
7100 [Bodo Moeller]
7101
7102 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
7103 for handling the random seed file.
7104
7105 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
7106 ca,
7107 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
7108 s_client,
7109 s_server,
7110 x509 (when signing).
7111 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
7112 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
7113 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
7114
7115 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
7116 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
7117 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
7118 that support '-rand'.
7119 [Bodo Moeller]
7120
7121 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
7122 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
7123 [Bodo Moeller]
7124
7125 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
7126 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
7127 [Bill Perry]
7128
7129 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
7130 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
7131 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
7132 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
7133 is suitable.
7134 [Steve Henson]
7135
7136 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
7137 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
7138 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
7139 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
7140 [Steve Henson]
7141
7142 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
7143 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
7144 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
7145 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
7146 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
7147 print out all the purposes.
7148 [Steve Henson]
7149
7150 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
7151 functions.
7152 [Steve Henson]
7153
7154 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
7155 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
7156 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
7157 single function call.
7158 [Steve Henson]
7159
7160 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
7161 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
7162 [Andy Polyakov]
7163
7164 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
7165 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
7166 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
7167 [Steve Henson]
7168
7169 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
7170 when producing the local key id.
7171 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7172
7173 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
7174 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
7175 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
7176 "server.pem".
7177 [Steve Henson]
7178
7179 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
7180 a public key to be input or output. For example:
7181 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
7182 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
7183 [Steve Henson]
7184
7185 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
7186 in the message. This was handled by allowing
7187 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
7188 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
7189
7190 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
7191 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
7192 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
7193 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
7194
7195 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
7196 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
7197 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
7198 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
7199 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
7200 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
7201 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
7202 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
7203 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
7204 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
7205 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
7206 trivial: move one line.
7207 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
7208
7209 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
7210 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
7211 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
7212 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
7213 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
7214 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
7215 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
7216 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
7217 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
7218 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
7219 with an event loop for example.
7220 [Steve Henson]
7221
7222 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
7223 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
7224 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
7225 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
7226 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
7227 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
7228 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
7229 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
7230 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
7231 [Steve Henson]
7232
7233 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
7234 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
7235 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
7236 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
7237 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
7238 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
7239 [Steve Henson]
7240
7241 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
7242 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
7243 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
7244 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
7245
7246 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
7247 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
7248 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
7249 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
7250 key generation.
7251 [Steve Henson]
7252
7253 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
7254 (still largely untested)
7255 [Bodo Moeller]
7256
7257 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
7258 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
7259 [Steve Henson]
7260
7261 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
7262 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
7263 [Steve Henson]
7264
7265 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
7266 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
7267 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
7268 [Bodo Moeller]
7269
7270 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
7271 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
7272 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
7273 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
7274 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
7275 [Steve Henson]
7276
7277 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
7278 [Andy Polyakov]
7279
7280 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
7281 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
7282 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
7283 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
7284 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
7285 in ca.
7286 [Steve Henson]
7287
7288 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
7289 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
7290 1.OU="Unit name 1"
7291 2.OU="Unit name 2"
7292 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
7293 [Steve Henson]
7294
7295 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
7296 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
7297 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
7298 are otherwise ignored at present.
7299 [Steve Henson]
7300
7301 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
7302 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
7303 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
7304 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
7305 copied until the next read.
7306 [Steve Henson]
7307
7308 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
7309 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
7310 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
7311 [Steve Henson]
7312
7313 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
7314 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
7315 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
7316 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
7317 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
7318 associated functions.
7319 [Steve Henson]
7320
7321 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
7322 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
7323 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
7324 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
7325 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
7326 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
7327 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
7328 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
7329 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
7330 memory BIOs.
7331 [Steve Henson]
7332
7333 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
7334 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
7335 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
7336 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
7337 [Bodo Moeller]
7338
7339 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
7340 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
7341 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
7342 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
7343 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
7344 functionality.
7345 [Steve Henson]
7346
7347 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
7348 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
7349 under Win32.
7350 [Steve Henson]
7351
7352 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
7353 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
7354 extensions to be obtained and added.
7355 [Steve Henson]
7356
7357 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
7358 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
7359 [Bodo Moeller]
7360
7361 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
7362
7363 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7364 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7365
7366 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
7367 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
7368
7369 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
7370 program.
7371 [Steve Henson]
7372
7373 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
7374 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
7375 DH parameters contain its length).
7376
7377 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
7378 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
7379 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
7380 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
7381 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
7382 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
7383 utter importance to use
7384 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7385 or
7386 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
7387 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
7388 attacks may become possible!
7389 [Bodo Moeller]
7390
7391 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
7392 [Bodo Moeller]
7393
7394 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
7395 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
7396 [Steve Henson]
7397
7398 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
7399 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
7400 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
7401 or long name.
7402 [Steve Henson]
7403
7404 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
7405 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
7406 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
7407 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
7408 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
7409 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
7410 private key operations.
7411 [Steve Henson]
7412
7413 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
7414 [Andy Polyakov]
7415
7416 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7417 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7418 to
7419 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7420 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7421 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7422 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7423 the password callback is called.
7424 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
7425
7426 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7427
7428 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7429 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7430 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7431 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7432 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7433 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7434 this will work.
7435
7436 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
7437 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
7438 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
7439 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
7440 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
7441 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
7442 [Bodo Moeller]
7443
7444 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
7445 [Andy Polyakov]
7446
7447 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
7448 delete an unused file.
7449 [Ulf Möller]
7450
7451 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7452 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7453 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
7454 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
7455 [Steve Henson]
7456
7457 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
7458 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
7459 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
7460 of an error.
7461 [Bodo Moeller]
7462
7463 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
7464 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
7465 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7466
7467 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7468 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7469 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7470 comparison" warnings.
7471 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
7472 [Steve Henson]
7473
7474 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
7475 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
7476 derived keys are printed to stderr.
7477 [Steve Henson]
7478
7479 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
7480 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
7481
7482 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7483 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7484
7485 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7486 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7487 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7488
7489 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7490 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7491 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7492 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7493 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7494 this bug.
7495 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
7496
7497 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7498 The interface is as follows:
7499 Applications can use
7500 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7501 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7502 "off" is now the default.
7503 The library internally uses
7504 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7505 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7506 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7507
7508 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7509 even the default) are now avoided.
7510
7511 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7512 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7513 than just having a counter.
7514
7515 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7516
7517 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7518 extensions.
7519 [Bodo Moeller]
7520
7521 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7522 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7523 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
7524 Initial "mode" flags are:
7525
7526 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7527 a single record has been written.
7528 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7529 retries use the same buffer location.
7530 (But all of the contents must be
7531 copied!)
7532 [Bodo Moeller]
7533
7534 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
7535 worked.
7536
7537 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
7538 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
7539
7540 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7541 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7542 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7543 [Steve Henson]
7544
7545 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
7546 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
7547 test programs.
7548 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
7549
7550 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7551 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7552 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7553 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7554 point to the end.
7555 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
7556 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
7557
7558 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7559 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7560 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7561 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7562 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7563 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7564 [Steve Henson]
7565
7566 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
7567 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
7568 necessary function names.
7569 [Steve Henson]
7570
7571 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
7572 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
7573 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
7574 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
7575 [Bodo Moeller]
7576
7577 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
7578 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
7579 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7580 [Steve Henson]
7581
7582 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7583 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7584 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
7585 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
7586 such programs?)
7587 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
7588 need locks.
7589 [Bodo Moeller]
7590
7591 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
7592 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
7593 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7594 [Bodo Moeller]
7595
7596 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
7597 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
7598 appropriate.
7599 [Bodo Moeller]
7600
7601 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
7602 for the encoded length.
7603 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
7604
7605 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
7606 [Steve Henson]
7607
7608 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7609 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7610 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7611 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
7612 [Steve Henson]
7613
7614 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
7615 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
7616 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7617
7618 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7619 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7620 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7621 unusual formatting.
7622 [Steve Henson]
7623
7624 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7625 to use the new extension code.
7626 [Steve Henson]
7627
7628 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7629 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
7630 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
7631 constant.
7632 [Steve Henson]
7633
7634 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
7635 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
7636 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
7637 [Bodo Moeller]
7638
7639 #if 0
7640 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
7641 [Ben Laurie]
7642 #else
7643 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
7644 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
7645 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
7646 #endif
7647
7648 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
7649 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
7650 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
7651 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
7652 [Ben Laurie]
7653
7654 *) DES library cleanups.
7655 [Ulf Möller]
7656
7657 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7658 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7659 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7660 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7661 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7662 of v2.0.
7663 [Steve Henson]
7664
7665 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
7666 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
7667 [Bodo Moeller]
7668
7669 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7670 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7671 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7672 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7673 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7674 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7675 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7676 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7677 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7678 [Steve Henson]
7679
7680 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
7681 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7682 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7683 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7684 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7685 value doesn't matter.
7686 [Steve Henson]
7687
7688 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
7689 support mutable.
7690 [Ben Laurie]
7691
7692 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
7693 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
7694 "linux-sparc" configuration.
7695 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
7696
7697 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
7698 [Ulf Möller]
7699
7700 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
7701 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
7702 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7703
7704 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
7705 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7706
7707 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
7708 [Ben Laurie]
7709
7710 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
7711 [Ben Laurie]
7712
7713 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
7714 [Ben Laurie]
7715
7716 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
7717 [Bodo Moeller]
7718
7719
7720 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
7721
7722 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
7723
7724 *) Updated some demos.
7725 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
7726
7727 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
7728 [Wu Zhigang]
7729
7730 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
7731 [Steve Henson]
7732
7733 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
7734 [Steve Henson]
7735
7736 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
7737 instead of using a fixed path.
7738 [Bodo Moeller]
7739
7740 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
7741 [Andy Polyakov]
7742
7743 *) Improvements for VMS support.
7744 [Richard Levitte]
7745
7746
7747 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
7748
7749 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7750 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7751 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7752
7753 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7754 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7755 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7756 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7757 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7758 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7759 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7760 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7761 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7762 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7763 [Steve Henson]
7764
7765 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7766 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7767 [Steve Henson]
7768
7769 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
7770 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
7771 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7772 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7773 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7774
7775 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7776 [Bodo Moeller]
7777
7778 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
7779 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
7780 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7781 [Steve Henson]
7782
7783 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
7784 [Ben Laurie]
7785
7786 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7787 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7788 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7789 key elements as negative integers.
7790 [Steve Henson]
7791
7792 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
7793 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7794
7795 *) VMS support.
7796 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7797
7798 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7799 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7800 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7801 [Steve Henson]
7802
7803 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7804 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7805 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7806 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7807 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7808 [Bodo Moeller]
7809
7810 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7811 [Ulf Möller]
7812
7813 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
7814 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
7815 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
7816 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7817
7818 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
7819 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
7820 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
7821
7822 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7823 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7824 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7825 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7826 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7827 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7828 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7829 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7830 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7831
7832 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7833 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7834 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7835 does not influence s as it used to.
7836
7837 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
7838 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7839 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7840 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7841 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7842 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
7843 [Bodo Moeller]
7844
7845 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
7846 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
7847 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
7848 key type.
7849 [Steve Henson]
7850
7851 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
7852 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
7853 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
7854 and 'x509').
7855 [Steve Henson]
7856
7857 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
7858 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
7859 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
7860 extension option.
7861 [Steve Henson]
7862
7863 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
7864 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
7865 [Ben Laurie]
7866
7867 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
7868 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7869
7870 *) Support Mingw32.
7871 [Ulf Möller]
7872
7873 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
7874 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7875
7876 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
7877 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7878
7879 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
7880 [Ulf Möller]
7881
7882 *) Update HPUX configuration.
7883 [Anonymous]
7884
7885 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
7886 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7887
7888 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
7889 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
7890 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
7891 DER-encoded.)
7892 [Bodo Moeller]
7893
7894 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
7895 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
7896 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
7897 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
7898 now it really counts the depth.
7899 [Bodo Moeller]
7900
7901 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
7902 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
7903 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
7904 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
7905 didn't match the private key).
7906
7907 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
7908 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
7909 connection using the SSL_CTX).
7910 [Bodo Moeller]
7911
7912 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
7913 [Ulf Möller]
7914
7915 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
7916 David Harris.
7917 [Bodo Moeller]
7918
7919 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
7920 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
7921 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
7922 [Bodo Moeller]
7923
7924 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
7925 [Bodo Moeller]
7926
7927 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
7928 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
7929 such as /usr/local/bin.
7930 [Bodo Moeller]
7931
7932 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
7933 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7934
7935 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
7936 [Ulf Möller]
7937
7938 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
7939 extension adding in x509 utility.
7940 [Steve Henson]
7941
7942 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
7943 [Ulf Möller]
7944
7945 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
7946 prototypes.
7947 [Steve Henson]
7948
7949 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
7950 [Ulf Möller]
7951
7952 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
7953 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
7954 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
7955 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
7956 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
7957 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
7958 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
7959 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
7960 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
7961 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
7962 [Steve Henson]
7963
7964 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
7965 [Bodo Moeller]
7966
7967 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
7968 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
7969 [Bodo Moeller]
7970
7971 *) Fix some race conditions.
7972 [Bodo Moeller]
7973
7974 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
7975 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
7976 [Steve Henson]
7977
7978 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
7979 [Ulf Möller]
7980
7981 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
7982 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
7983 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
7984 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
7985
7986 *) Fix lots of warnings.
7987 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7988
7989 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
7990 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
7991 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7992
7993 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
7994 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7995
7996 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
7997 [Ulf Möller]
7998
7999 *) Fix typos in error codes.
8000 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
8001
8002 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
8003 [Ulf Möller]
8004
8005 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
8006 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
8007
8008 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
8009 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
8010 [Steve Henson]
8011
8012 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
8013 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
8014 [Ben Laurie]
8015
8016 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
8017 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
8018 [Steve Henson]
8019
8020 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
8021 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
8022 [Steve Henson]
8023
8024 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
8025 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
8026 [Steve Henson]
8027
8028 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
8029 support typesafe stack.
8030 [Steve Henson]
8031
8032 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
8033 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
8034
8035 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
8036 old X509V3 handling code.
8037 [Steve Henson]
8038
8039 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
8040 [Ulf Möller]
8041
8042 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
8043 [Bodo Moeller]
8044
8045 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
8046 [Ben Laurie]
8047
8048 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
8049 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
8050
8051 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
8052 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
8053 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
8054 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
8055 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
8056 [Ben Laurie]
8057
8058 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
8059 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
8060 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
8061 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
8062 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
8063
8064 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
8065 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
8066 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
8067 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8068
8069 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
8070 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
8071 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
8072 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8073
8074 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
8075 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
8076 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
8077 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
8078 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
8079 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
8080 [Bodo Moeller]
8081
8082 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
8083 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
8084 [Bodo Moeller]
8085
8086 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
8087 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
8088 [Ulf Möller]
8089
8090 *) Tweaks to Configure
8091 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
8092
8093 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
8094 yet...
8095 [Steve Henson]
8096
8097 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
8098 [Ulf Möller]
8099
8100 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
8101 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
8102 [Ulf Möller]
8103
8104 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
8105 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
8106 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
8107 [Bodo Moeller]
8108
8109 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
8110 [Bodo Moeller]
8111
8112 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
8113 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
8114 [Steve Henson]
8115
8116 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
8117 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
8118 to library startup routines.
8119 [Steve Henson]
8120
8121 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
8122 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
8123 codes along the way.
8124 [Steve Henson]
8125
8126 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
8127 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
8128 objects to objects.h
8129 [Steve Henson]
8130
8131 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
8132 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
8133 [Steve Henson]
8134
8135 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
8136 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
8137
8138 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
8139 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
8140 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
8141
8142 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
8143 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
8144 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8145
8146 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
8147 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
8148 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
8149
8150
8151 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
8152
8153 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
8154 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
8155 [Ben Laurie]
8156
8157 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
8158 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
8159 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
8160 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
8161 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
8162
8163 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
8164 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
8165 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
8166 document.
8167 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8168
8169 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
8170 Malloc, Free.
8171 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
8172
8173 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
8174 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8175
8176 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
8177 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
8178 if someone would make that last step automatic.
8179 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
8180
8181 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
8182 [Ben Laurie]
8183
8184 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
8185 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
8186 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
8187 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
8188 [Steve Henson]
8189
8190 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
8191 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
8192 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
8193 [Steve Henson]
8194
8195 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
8196 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
8197 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
8198 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
8199 installed as `perl').
8200 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8201
8202 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
8203 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8204
8205 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
8206 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
8207 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
8208 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
8209 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
8210 [Steve Henson]
8211
8212 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
8213 [Ben Laurie]
8214
8215 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
8216 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
8217 is horrible: I feel ill....
8218 [Steve Henson]
8219
8220 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
8221 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
8222 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
8223 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
8224 [Steve Henson]
8225
8226 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
8227 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8228
8229 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
8230 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
8231 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
8232 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8233
8234 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
8235 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
8236 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
8237 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
8238 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
8239 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
8240 openssl_bio.xs.
8241 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8242
8243 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
8244 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8245
8246 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
8247 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
8248
8249 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
8250 [Ben Laurie]
8251
8252 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
8253 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
8254 in CRLs.
8255 [Steve Henson]
8256
8257 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
8258 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
8259 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
8260 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
8261 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
8262 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
8263 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
8264 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
8265 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
8266 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
8267 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8268
8269 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
8270 [Ben Laurie]
8271
8272 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
8273 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
8274 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
8275 for linking it into DSOs.
8276 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8277
8278 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
8279 Fixed.
8280 [Ben Laurie]
8281
8282 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
8283 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
8284 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
8285 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
8286 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
8287 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8288
8289 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
8290 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
8291 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
8292 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
8293 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
8294 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
8295 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8296
8297 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
8298 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
8299 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
8300 encryption.
8301 [Ben Laurie]
8302
8303 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
8304 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
8305 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
8306 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
8307 [Steve Henson]
8308
8309 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
8310 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
8311 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
8312 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
8313 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
8314 field as blank.
8315 [Steve Henson]
8316
8317 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
8318 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
8319 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
8320 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
8321 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8322
8323 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
8324 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
8325 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8326
8327 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
8328 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
8329
8330 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
8331 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
8332 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
8333 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
8334 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
8335 [Steve Henson]
8336
8337 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
8338 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
8339 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
8340 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
8341 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
8342 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
8343 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
8344 [Ben Laurie]
8345
8346 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
8347 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
8348 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
8349 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
8350 [Ben Laurie]
8351
8352 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
8353 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
8354
8355 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
8356 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
8357 [Steve Henson]
8358
8359 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
8360 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
8361 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
8362 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
8363 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
8364 (e.g. s_server).
8365 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
8366 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
8367 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
8368 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
8369 no way to reconfigure them.
8370 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
8371 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
8372 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
8373 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
8374 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
8375 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8376
8377 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
8378 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
8379 recognized by the users.
8380 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8381
8382 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
8383 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
8384 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
8385 already masked variable.
8386 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8387
8388 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
8389 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8390
8391 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
8392 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
8393 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
8394 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
8395
8396 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
8397 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
8398 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8399
8400 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
8401 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
8402 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
8403 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
8404 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
8405 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
8406 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
8407 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
8408 now, too.
8409 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8410
8411 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
8412 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
8413 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8414
8415 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
8416 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
8417 config file.
8418 [Steve Henson]
8419
8420 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
8421 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8422
8423 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8424 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8425 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
8426 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
8427 [Ben Laurie]
8428
8429 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
8430 [Steve Henson]
8431
8432 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
8433 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8434
8435 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
8436 [Ben Laurie]
8437
8438 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
8439 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
8440 [Steve Henson]
8441
8442 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
8443 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
8444 [Steve Henson]
8445
8446 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8447 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8448 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8449 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8450 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8451 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
8452 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
8453 Ben Laurie]
8454
8455 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
8456 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8457
8458 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
8459 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8460 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8461 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
8462 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8463
8464 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8465 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
8466 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
8467 [Steve Henson]
8468
8469 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8470 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8471 an example.
8472 [Steve Henson]
8473
8474 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
8475 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
8476 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8477
8478 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8479 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8480 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8481 build instructions.
8482 [Steve Henson]
8483
8484 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8485 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8486 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8487 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8488 [Steve Henson]
8489
8490 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8491 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8492 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8493 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8494 [Ben Laurie]
8495
8496 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8497 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8498 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8499 so it wasn't spotted.
8500 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
8501
8502 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8503 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8504 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8505 vectors if you have them.
8506 [Ben Laurie]
8507
8508 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
8509 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8510 [Ben Laurie]
8511
8512 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8513 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8514 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8515 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8516 If you do a:
8517 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8518 it will update them.
8519 [Steve Henson]
8520
8521 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8522 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8523 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8524 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8525 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8526 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8527 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8528 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8529
8530 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8531 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8532 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8533 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8534 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8535 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8536 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8537 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8538 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8539 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8540
8541 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8542 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8543 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8544 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8545 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8546 [Steve Henson]
8547
8548 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
8549 INTEGER code.
8550 [Steve Henson]
8551
8552 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
8553 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8554
8555 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
8556 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8557
8558 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8559 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8560 [Ben Laurie]
8561
8562 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
8563 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
8564
8565 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
8566 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
8567
8568 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
8569 [Steve Henson]
8570
8571 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
8572 few typos.
8573 [Steve Henson]
8574
8575 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
8576 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
8577 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
8578 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8579
8580 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8581 [Steve Henson]
8582
8583 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8584 [Steve Henson]
8585
8586 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
8587 [Steve Henson]
8588
8589 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
8590 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
8591 [Steve Henson]
8592
8593 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8594 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8595 CA extensions.
8596 [Steve Henson]
8597
8598 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
8599 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
8600 [Steve Henson]
8601
8602 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
8603 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8604 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8605 [Steve Henson]
8606
8607 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8608 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8609 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8610 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8611 properly to be processed.
8612 [Steve Henson]
8613
8614 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
8615 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
8616 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
8617 [Ben Laurie]
8618
8619 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
8620 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
8621
8622 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8623 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8624 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8625 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8626 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8627 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8628 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8629 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8630 or delete all the .err files.
8631 [Steve Henson]
8632
8633 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8634 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8635 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8636 to regenerate it if needed.
8637 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
8638 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
8639
8640 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
8641 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8642
8643 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
8644 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8645 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8646 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8647 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
8648 [Steve Henson]
8649
8650 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
8651 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8652
8653 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
8654 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8655
8656 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
8657 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
8658 error, but didn't set one).
8659 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8660
8661 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
8662 [Ben Laurie]
8663
8664 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
8665 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
8666 [Steve Henson]
8667
8668 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
8669 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
8670
8671 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8672 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8673 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8674 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8675 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8676 OID is not part of the table.
8677 [Steve Henson]
8678
8679 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
8680 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
8681 [Ben Laurie]
8682
8683 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
8684 [Ben Laurie]
8685
8686 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
8687 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
8688 was "1234").
8689 [Steve Henson]
8690
8691 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
8692 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
8693
8694 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
8695 NULL pointers.
8696 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8697
8698 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
8699 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8700
8701 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
8702 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8703
8704 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
8705 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8706
8707 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
8708 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
8709 [Ben Laurie]
8710
8711 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
8712 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
8713 [Steve Henson]
8714
8715 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
8716 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8717
8718 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
8719 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8720
8721 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
8722 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8723
8724 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
8725 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8726
8727 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
8728 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
8729 unused in the certificate verification process.
8730 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8731
8732 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
8733 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
8734 [Steve Henson]
8735
8736 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
8737 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8738 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8739
8740 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8741 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8742 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8743 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
8744 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
8745
8746 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8747 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8748 [Steve Henson]
8749
8750 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8751 [Steve Henson]
8752
8753 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8754 [Paul Sutton]
8755
8756 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8757 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8758
8759 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8760 [Ben Laurie]
8761
8762 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8763 [Ben Laurie]
8764
8765 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8766 [Ben Laurie]
8767
8768 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8769 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8770 other error libraries.
8771 [Steve Henson]
8772
8773 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8774 [Steve Henson]
8775
8776 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8777 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8778 be read in.
8779 [Steve Henson]
8780
8781 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8782 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8783 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8784 the new set of documenation files.
8785 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8786
8787 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8788 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8789 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
8790 number of arguments.
8791 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
8792
8793 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
8794 [Ben Laurie]
8795
8796 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
8797 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
8798 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8799
8800 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
8801 [Ben Laurie]
8802
8803 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
8804 nextstep
8805 ncr-scde
8806 unixware-2.0
8807 unixware-2.0-pentium
8808 sco5-cc.
8809 [Ben Laurie]
8810
8811 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
8812 before they are needed.
8813 [Ben Laurie]
8814
8815 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
8816 [Ben Laurie]
8817
8818
8819 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
8820
8821 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
8822 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
8823 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8824
8825 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
8826 [Paul Sutton]
8827
8828 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
8829 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
8830 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8831
8832 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
8833 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
8834 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
8835
8836 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
8837 when "ssleay" is still not found.
8838 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8839
8840 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
8841 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
8842
8843 *) Updated the README file.
8844 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8845
8846 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
8847 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
8848 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8849
8850 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
8851 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
8852 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8853
8854 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
8855 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
8856 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
8857 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
8858 o removed obsolete TODO file
8859 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
8860 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8861
8862 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
8863 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
8864 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
8865 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
8866 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
8867 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
8868 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8869
8870 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
8871 [Mark J. Cox]
8872
8873 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
8874 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
8875 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
8876 summer 1998.
8877 [The OpenSSL Project]
8878
8879
8880 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]

8889 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
8890 [Eric A. Young]
8891
8892 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
8893 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
8894 available).
8895 [Eric A. Young]
8896
8897 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
8898 binary structures
8899 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
8900
8901 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
8902 [Eric A. Young]
8903
8904 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
8905 [Eric A. Young]
8906
8907 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
8908 [Eric A. Young]
8909
8910 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
8911 [Eric A. Young]
8912
8913 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
8914 [Eric A. Young]
8915
8916 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
8917 [Eric A. Young]
8918
8919 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
8920 [Eric A. Young]
8921
8922 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
8923 [Eric A. Young]
8924
8925 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
8926 [Eric A. Young]
8927
8928 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
8929 [Eric A. Young]
8930
8931 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
8932 [Eric A. Young]
8933
8934 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
8935 [Eric A. Young]
8936
8937 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
8938 [Eric A. Young]
8939
8940 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
8941 [Eric A. Young]
8942
8943 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
8944 [Eric A. Young]
8945
8946 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
8947 [Eric A. Young]
8948
8949 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
8950 [Eric A. Young]
8951
8952 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
8953 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
8954 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
8955 [Eric A. Young]
8956
8957 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
8958 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
8959 [Eric A. Young]
8960
8961 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
8962 [Eric A. Young]
8963
8964 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
8965 [Eric A. Young]
8966
8967 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
8968 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.

8972 [Eric A. Young]
8973
8974 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
8975 [Eric A. Young]
8976
8977 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
8978 bytes sent in the client random.
8979 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
8980
