4
5 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.8 [xx XXX 2002]
6
7 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
8 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
9 [Bodo Moeller]
10
11 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
12 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
13 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
14 [Bodo Moeller]
15
16 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
17 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
18
19 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
20 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
21
22 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
23 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
24 New EC_METHOD:
25
26 EC_GF2m_simple_method
27
28 New API functions:
29
30 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
31 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
32 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
33 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
34 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
35 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
36
37 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
38 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
39 enable it).
40
41 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
42 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
43 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
44 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
45 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
46 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
47 various internal method names.)
48
49 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
50 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
51
52 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
53 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
54
55 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
56 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
57
58 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
59 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
60 methods are undefined.
61
62 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
63 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
64
65 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
66 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
67 length of the modulus.
68
69 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
70 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
71
72 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
73 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
74
75 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
76 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
77
78 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
79 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
80 used) in the following functions [macros]:
81
82 BN_GF2m_add
83 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
84 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
85 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
86 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
87 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
88 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
89 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
90 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
91 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
92
93 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
94 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
95
96 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
97 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
98 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
99 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
100 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
101 where
102 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
103 This applies to the following functions:
104
105 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
106 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
107 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
108 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
109 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
110 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
111 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
112 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
113 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
114 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
115
116 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
117
118 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
119 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
120
121 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
122
123 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
124 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
125 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
126 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
127 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
128
129 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
130 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
131
132 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
133 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
134 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
135
136 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
137 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
138
139 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
140 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
141 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
142 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
143 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
144
145 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
146 functions
147 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
148 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
149 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
150 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
151 These control ASN1 encoding details:
152 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
153 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
154 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
155 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
156 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
157 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
158 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
159
160 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
161 functions
162 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
163 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
164 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
165 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
166 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
167
168 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
169 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
170 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
171 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
172
173 *) Add functions
174 EC_POINT_point2bn()
175 EC_POINT_bn2point()
176 EC_POINT_point2hex()
177 EC_POINT_hex2point()
178 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
179 EC_POINT_oct2point().
180 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
181
182 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
183 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
184 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
185 EC_GROUP_get_order()
186 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
187 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
188 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
189 adding different types of curves.
190 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
191
192 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
193 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
194 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
195 [Bodo Moeller]
196
197 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
198 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
199
200 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
201 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
202 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
203 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
204
205 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
206
207 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
208 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
209
210 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
211 library. Most notably,
212 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
213 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
214 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
215 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
216 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
217 extracted before the specific public key.
218 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
219
220 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
221 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. The curves can be obtained from the new
222 functions
223 EC_GROUP_new_by_nid()
224 EC_GROUP_new_by_name()
225 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
226 accessed via
227 EC_GROUP_set_nid()
228 EC_GROUP_get_nid()
229 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
230
231 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.7 [XX xxx 2002]
232
233 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
234 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
235 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
236 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
237
238 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
239 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
240 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
241
242 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
243 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
244 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
245 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
246
247 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
248 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
249 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
250 some local tweaks:
251
252 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
253 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
254 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
255 mkdir -p objtree/`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`
256 cd objtree/`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`
257 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f -o -type l) | while read F; do
258 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
259 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
260 done
261
262 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
263 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
264 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
265 [Richard Levitte]
266
267 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
268 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
269 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
270 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
271 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
272
273 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
274 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
275
276 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
277 error in AES-CFB decryption.
278 [Richard Levitte]
279
280 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
281 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
282 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
283 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
284 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
285 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
286 [Steve Henson]
287
288 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
289 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
290 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
291 [Steve Henson]
292
293 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
294 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
295 [Lutz Jaenicke]
296
297 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
298 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
299 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
300 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
301 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
302 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
303 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
304 [Lutz Jaenicke]
305
306 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
307 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
308 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
309 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
310 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
311 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
312 [Steve Henson]
313
314 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
315 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
316 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
317 declaration has been changed from
318 int (*cb)()
319 into
320 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
321 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
322 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
323 has been changed into
324 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
325
326 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
327 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
328 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
329
330 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
331 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
332
333 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
334 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
335 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
336 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
337 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
338 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
339 always load it have also been added.
340 [Steve Henson]
341
342 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
343 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
344 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
345
346 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
347
348 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
349 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
350 because it couldn't be used for anything.
351
352 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
353 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
354 command line option can be used to specify an
355 alternative file.
356 [Steve Henson]
357
358 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
359 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
360 [Steve Henson]
361
362 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
363 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
364 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
365 [Steve Henson]
366
367 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
368 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
369 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
370 to work with the new engine framework.
371 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
372
373 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
374 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
375 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
376 to work with the new engine framework.
377 [Richard Levitte]
378
379 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
380 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
381 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
382
383 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
384 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
385
386 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
387 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
388 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
389 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
390 FORMAT_IISSGC.
391 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
392
393 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
394 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
395
396 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
397 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
398
399 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
400 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
401 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
402 [Ben Laurie]
403
404 *) Add new functions
405 ERR_peek_last_error
406 ERR_peek_last_error_line
407 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
408 These are similar to
409 ERR_peek_error
410 ERR_peek_error_line
411 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
412 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
413 still in the error queue.
414 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
415
416 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
417 like:
418 default_algorithms = ALL
419 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
420 [Steve Henson]
421
422 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
423 [Steve Henson]
424
425 *) New experimental application configuration code.
426 [Steve Henson]
427
428 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
429 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
430 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
431 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
432
433 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
434 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
435
436 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
437 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
438
439 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
440 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
441 [Bodo Moeller]
442
443 *) New functions/macros
444
445 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
446 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
447 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
448 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
449
450 to request calling a callback function
451
452 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
453 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
454
455 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
456 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
457 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
458 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
459 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
460 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
461 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
462 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
463 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
464 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
465
466 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
467 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
468 [Bodo Moeller]
469
470 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
471 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
472 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
473 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
474 the configuration scripts.
475
476 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
477 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
478 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
479
480 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
481 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
482
483 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
484 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
485 when reusing an existing buffer.
486 [Bodo Moeller]
487
488 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
489 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
490 [Steve Henson]
491
492 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
493 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
494 [Ben Laurie]
495
496 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
497 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
498 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
499 has the same effect.
500 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
501
502 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
503 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
504 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
505 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
506 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
507 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
508 exception.
509
510 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
511 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
512 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
513 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
514
515 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
516 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
517 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
518 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
519
520 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
521 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
522 won't work.
523
524 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
525 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
526 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
527 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
528 default), and then completely removed.
529 [Richard Levitte]
530
531 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
532 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
533 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
534 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
535 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
536 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
537 particular extension is supported.
538 [Steve Henson]
539
540 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
541 to retain compatibility with existing code.
542 [Steve Henson]
543
544 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
545 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
546 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
547 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
548 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
549 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
550 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
551 requires the destination to be valid.
552
553 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
554 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
555 [Steve Henson]
556
557 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
558 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
559 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
560 [Bodo Moeller]
561
562 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
563 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
564
565 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
566 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
567 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
568 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
569 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
570 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
571 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
572 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
573 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
574 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
575 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
576 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
577 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
578 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
579 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
580 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
581 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
582 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
583 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
584 the new code.
585 [Geoff Thorpe]
586
587 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
588 [Steve Henson]
589
590 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
591 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
592 become part of libeay.num as well.
593 [Richard Levitte]
594
595 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
596 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
597 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
598 false once a handshake has been completed.
599 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
600 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
601 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
602 client has followed the request.)
603 [Bodo Moeller]
604
605 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
606 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
607 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
608 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
609
610 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
611 more bits available for options that should not be part of
612 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
613 [Bodo Moeller]
614
615 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
616 [Steve Henson]
617
618 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
619 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
620 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
621 [Lutz Jaenicke]
622
623 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
624 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
625 [Lutz Jaenicke]
626
627 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
628 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
629 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
630 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
631 [Geoff Thorpe]
632
633 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
634 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
635 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
636 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
637 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
638 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
639 [Geoff Thorpe]
640
641 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
642 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
643 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
644 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
645 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
646 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
647 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
648 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
649 [Geoff Thorpe]
650
651 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
652 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
653 [Geoff Thorpe]
654
655 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
656 [Ben Laurie]
657
658 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
659 md_data void pointer.
660 [Ben Laurie]
661
662 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
663 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
664 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
665 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
666 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
667 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
668 [Ben Laurie]
669
670 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
671 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
672 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
673 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
674 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
675 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
676 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
677 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
678 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
679 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
680 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
681 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
682 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
683 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
684 rather than letting it slide.
685
686 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
687 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
688 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
689 [Geoff Thorpe]
690
691 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
692 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
693 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
694 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
695 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
696 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
697 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
698 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
699 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
700 [Geoff Thorpe]
701
702 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
703 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
704 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
705 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
706 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
707
708 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
709 [Geoff Thorpe]
710
711 *) Add EVP test program.
712 [Ben Laurie]
713
714 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
715 [Ben Laurie]
716
717 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
718 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
719 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
720 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
721 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
722 [Steve Henson]
723
724 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
725 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
726 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
727 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
728 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
729 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
730 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
731
732 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
733 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
734 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
735 Usage example:
736
737 EVP_MD_CTX md;
738
739 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
740 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
741 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
742 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
743 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
744
745 [Ben Laurie]
746
747 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
748 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
749 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
750 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
751 anyway): E.g.,
752
753 des_key_schedule ks;
754
755 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
756 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
757
758 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
759 [Ben Laurie]
760
761 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
762 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
763 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
764 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
765 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
766 functions prevents this.
767 [Steve Henson]
768
769 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
770 [Ben Laurie]
771
772 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
773 correct _ecb suffix.
774 [Ben Laurie]
775
776 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
777 revocation information is handled using the text based index
778 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
779 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
780 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
781 [Steve Henson]
782
783 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
784 [Richard Levitte]
785
786 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
787 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
788 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
789 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
790
791 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
792 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
793
794 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
795 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
796 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
797 via Richard Levitte]
798
799 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
800 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
801 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
802 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
803 [Geoff Thorpe]
804
805 *) Speed up EVP routines.
806 Before:
807 encrypt
808 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
809 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
810 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k
811 des-cbc 4394.32k 5575.92k 5807.44k 5848.37k 5841.30k
812 decrypt
813 des-cbc 3482.66k 5069.49k 5496.39k 5614.16k 5639.28k
814 des-cbc 3480.74k 5068.76k 5510.34k 5609.87k 5635.52k
815 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
816 After:
817 encrypt
818 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
819 decrypt
820 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
821 [Ben Laurie]
822
823 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
824 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
825
826 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
827 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
828 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
829 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
830 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
831 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
832 [Steve Henson]
833
834 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
835 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
836 [Richard Levitte]
837
838 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
839 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
840 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
841 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
842
843 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
844 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
845 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
846 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
847 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
848 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
849 callback.
850 [Richard Levitte]
851
852 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
853 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
854 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
855 and interrupts/cancellations.
856 [Richard Levitte]
857
858 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
859 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
860 [Steve Henson]
861
862 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
863 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
864 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
865
866 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
867 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
868 kind of callback.
869 [Richard Levitte]
870
871 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
872 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
873 than this minimum value is recommended.
874 [Lutz Jaenicke]
875
876 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
877 that are easily reachable.
878 [Richard Levitte]
879
880 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
881 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
882
883 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
884
885 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
886 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
887 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
888 needed for static libraries under Win32.
889 [Steve Henson]
890
891 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
892 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
893 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
894 [Steve Henson]
895
896 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
897 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
898 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
899 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
900 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
901 internally such as S/MIME.
902
903 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
904 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
905 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
906
907 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
908 applications.
909 [Steve Henson]
910
911 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
912 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
913 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
914 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
915
916 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
917
918 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
919
920 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
921 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
922 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
923 handling.
924 [Steve Henson]
925
926 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
927 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
928 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
929 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
930 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
931 a window system and the like.
932 [Richard Levitte]
933
934 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
935 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
936 [Geoff]
937
938 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
939 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
940 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
941 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
942 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
943 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
944 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
945 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
946 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
947 ENGINE structure.
948 [Geoff]
949
950 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
951 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
952 tag cache.
953 [Steve Henson]
954
955 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
956 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
957 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
958 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
959 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
960 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
961 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
962 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
963 [Geoff]
964
965 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
966 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
967 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
968 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
969 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
970 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
971 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
972 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
973 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
974 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
975 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
976 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
977 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
978 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
979 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
980 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
981 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
982 [Geoff]
983
984 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
985 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
986 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
987 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
988 internal engine_int.h header.
989 [Geoff]
990
991 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
992 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
993 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
994 modify their own ones).
995 [Geoff]
996
997 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
998 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
999 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
1000 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
1001 later on via ctrl() commands.
1002 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
1003 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
1004 structural references.
1005 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
1006 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
1007 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
1008 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
1009 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
1010 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
1011 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
1012 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
1013 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
1014 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
1015 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
1016 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
1017 [Geoff]
1018
1019 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
1020 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
1021 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
1022 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
1023 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
1024 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
1025 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
1026 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
1027 [Bodo Moeller]
1028
1029 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
1030 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
1031 [Steve Henson]
1032
1033 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
1034 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
1035 [Steve Henson]
1036
1037 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
1038 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
1039 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
1040 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
1041 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
1042 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
1043 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
1044 [Steve Henson]
1045
1046 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
1047 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
1048 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
1049 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
1050 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
1051
1052 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
1053 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
1054 generator).
1055 [Bodo Moeller]
1056
1057 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
1058
1059 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
1060 operations and provides various method functions that can also
1061 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
1062
1063 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
1064 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
1065
1066 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
1067 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
1068 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
1069
1070 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
1071 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
1072
1073 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
1074 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
1075
1076 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
1077
1078 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
1079 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
1080 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
1081 [Bodo Moeller]
1082
1083 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
1084 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
1085 [Richard Levitte]
1086
1087 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
1088 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
1089 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
1090 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
1091 is 40 of more characters long.
1092 [Steve Henson]
1093
1094 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
1095 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
1096 pointers.
1097 [Steve Henson]
1098
1099 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
1100 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
1101 [Bodo Moeller]
1102
1103 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
1104 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
1105 might.
1106 [Steve Henson]
1107
1108 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
1109
1110 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
1111 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
1112
1113 ASN1 error codes
1114 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
1115 ...
1116 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
1117 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
1118 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
1119 ...
1120 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
1121 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
1122
1123 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
1124 [Bodo Moeller]
1125
1126 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
1127 suffices.
1128 [Bodo Moeller]
1129
1130 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
1131 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
1132 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
1133 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
1134 and
1135 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
1136
1137 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
1138 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
1139
1140 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
1141 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
1142 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
1143 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
1144 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
1145 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
1146
1147 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
1148 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
1149
1150 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
1151 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1152
1153 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
1154 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
1155
1156 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
1157 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
1158 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
1159 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
1160
1161 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
1162 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
1163
1164 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
1165 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
1166
1167 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
1168 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
1169 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
1170 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
1171 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
1172 [Richard Levitte]
1173
1174 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
1175 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
1176 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
1177 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
1178 [Steve Henson]
1179
1180 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
1181 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
1182 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
1183 trust settings.
1184 [Steve Henson]
1185
1186 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
1187 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
1188 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
1189 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
1190 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
1191 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
1192 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
1193 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
1194 ocsp utility.
1195 [Steve Henson]
1196
1197 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
1198 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
1199 [Steve Henson]
1200
1201 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
1202 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
1203 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
1204 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
1205 [Steve Henson]
1206
1207 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
1208 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
1209 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
1210 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
1211 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
1212 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
1213 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
1214 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
1215 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
1216 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
1217 [Steve Henson]
1218
1219 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
1220 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
1221 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
1222 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
1223 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
1224 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
1225 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
1226 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
1227
1228 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
1229 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
1230 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
1231 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
1232 [Richard Levitte]
1233
1234 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
1235 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
1236 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
1237 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
1238 opensslconf.h.
1239 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
1240 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
1241 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
1242 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
1243 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
1244 what is available.
1245 [Richard Levitte]
1246
1247 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
1248 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
1249 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
1250 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
1251 auto incremented.
1252 [Steve Henson]
1253
1254 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
1255 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
1256 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
1257 [Steve Henson]
1258
1259 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
1260 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
1261 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
1262 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
1263 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
1264 [Steve Henson]
1265
1266 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
1267 [Steve Henson]
1268
1269 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
1270 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
1271 option to ocsp utility.
1272 [Steve Henson]
1273
1274 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
1275 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
1276 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
1277 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
1278 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
1279 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
1280 the request is nonce-less.
1281 [Steve Henson]
1282
1283 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
1284 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
1285 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
1286 [Bodo Moeller]
1287
1288 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
1289 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
1290 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
1291 [Steve Henson]
1292
1293 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
1294 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
1295 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
1296 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
1297 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
1298 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1299
1300 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
1301 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
1302 appear to exist.
1303 [Steve Henson]
1304
1305 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
1306 additional certificates supplied.
1307 [Steve Henson]
1308
1309 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
1310 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
1311 signature against.
1312 [Richard Levitte]
1313
1314 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
1315 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
1316 AES OIDs.
1317
1318 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
1319 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
1320 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
1321 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
1322 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
1323 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
1324 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
1325 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
1326 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1327
1328 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
1329 request to response.
1330 [Steve Henson]
1331
1332 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
1333 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
1334 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
1335 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
1336 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
1337 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
1338 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
1339 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
1340 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
1341 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
1342 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
1343 [Steve Henson]
1344
1345 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
1346 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
1347 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
1348 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
1349 [Steve Henson]
1350
1351 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
1352 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1353
1354 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
1355 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
1356 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
1357 [Steve Henson]
1358
1359 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
1360 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
1361 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
1362 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1363 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1364
1365 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
1366 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
1367 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
1368 [Steve Henson]
1369
1370 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
1371 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
1372 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
1373 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
1374 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
1375 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
1376 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
1377 <support@securenetterm.com>]
1378
1379 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
1380 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
1381 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
1382 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
1383 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
1384 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
1385 [Steve Henson]
1386
1387 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
1388 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
1389 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
1390 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
1391 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
1392 printout format cleaned up.
1393 [Steve Henson]
1394
1395 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
1396 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
1397 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
1398 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
1399 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
1400 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
1401 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
1402 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
1403 [Steve Henson]
1404
1405 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
1406 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
1407 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
1408 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
1409 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
1410 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
1411 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
1412 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
1413 [Steve Henson]
1414
1415 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
1416 extensions from a separate configuration file.
1417 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
1418 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
1419 section to use.
1420 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1421
1422 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
1423 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
1424 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
1425 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
1426 [Steve Henson]
1427
1428 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
1429 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
1430 the given serial number (according to the index file).
1431 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
1432 in the index file.
1433 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
1434
1435 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
1436 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
1437 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
1438 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1439
1440 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
1441 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
1442
1443 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
1444 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
1445 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
1446 [Steve Henson]
1447
1448 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
1449 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
1450 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
1451 [Bodo Moeller]
1452
1453 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
1454 file name and line number information in additional arguments
1455 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
1456 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
1457 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
1458 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
1459 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
1460 functions are provided:
1461
1462 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
1463 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
1464 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
1465 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
1466
1467 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
1468 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
1469 extended allocation function is enabled.
1470 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
1471 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
1472 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
1473
1474 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
1475 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
1476 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
1477 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
1478 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
1479 [Geoff Thorpe]
1480
1481 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
1482 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
1483 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
1484 be queried.
1485 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
1486 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
1487 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
1488 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1489
1490 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
1491 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
1492 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
1493 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
1494 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
1495 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
1496 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
1497 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
1498 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
1499 [Richard Levitte]
1500
1501 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
1502 provide utility functions which an application needing
1503 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
1504 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
1505 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
1506
1507 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
1508 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
1509 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
1510 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
1511 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
1512 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
1513 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
1514 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
1515 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
1516
1517 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
1518 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
1519 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
1520 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
1521 [Steve Henson]
1522
1523 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
1524 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
1525 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
1526 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
1527 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
1528 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
1529 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
1530 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
1531 will be added elsewhere.
1532 [Steve Henson]
1533
1534 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
1535 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
1536 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
1537 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
1538 [Steve Henson]
1539
1540 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
1541 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
1542 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
1543 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
1544 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
1545 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
1546 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
1547 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
1548 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
1549 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
1550 to produce the required SET OF.
1551 [Steve Henson]
1552
1553 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
1554 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
1555 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
1556 [Richard Levitte]
1557
1558 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
1559 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
1560 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
1561 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
1562 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
1563 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
1564 [Steve Henson]
1565
1566 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
1567 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
1568 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
1569 [Steve Henson]
1570
1571 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
1572 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
1573 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
1574 [Richard Levitte]
1575
1576 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
1577 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
1578 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
1579 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
1580 code will still work when these eventually go away.
1581 [Steve Henson]
1582
1583 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
1584 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
1585 [Steve Henson]
1586
1587 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
1588 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
1589 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
1590 certifcates and CRLs.
1591 [Steve Henson]
1592
1593 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
1594 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
1595 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
1596 [Steve Henson]
1597
1598 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
1599 entries for variables.
1600 [Steve Henson]
1601
1602 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
1603 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
1604 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
1605 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
1606 [Bodo Moeller]
1607
1608 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
1609 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
1610 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
1611 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
1612 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
1613 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
1614 [Bodo Moeller]
1615
1616 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
1617 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
1618
1619 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
1620 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
1621 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
1622 [Steve Henson]
1623
1624 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
1625 print routines.
1626 [Steve Henson]
1627
1628 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
1629 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
1630 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
1631 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
1632 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
1633 order did not reflect the encoded order.
1634 [Steve Henson]
1635
1636 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
1637 [Steve Henson]
1638
1639 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
1640 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
1641 for now but they will eventually go away.
1642 [Steve Henson]
1643
1644 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
1645 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
1646 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
1647 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
1648 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
1649 has also been converted to the new form.
1650 [Steve Henson]
1651
1652 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
1653 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
1654 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
1655 for negative moduli.
1656 [Bodo Moeller]
1657
1658 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
1659 of not touching the result's sign bit.
1660 [Bodo Moeller]
1661
1662 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
1663 set.
1664 [Bodo Moeller]
1665
1666 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
1667 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
1668 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
1669 type-specific callbacks.
1670 [Geoff Thorpe]
1671
1672 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
1673 RFC 2712.
1674 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
1675 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
1676
1677 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
1678 in sections depending on the subject.
1679 [Richard Levitte]
1680
1681 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
1682 Windows.
1683 [Richard Levitte]
1684
1685 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
1686 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
1687 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
1688 be handled deterministically).
1689 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1690
1691 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
1692 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
1693 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
1694 [Bodo Moeller]
1695
1696 *) New function BN_kronecker.
1697 [Bodo Moeller]
1698
1699 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
1700 positive unless both parameters are zero.
1701 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
1702 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
1703 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
1704 [Bodo Moeller]
1705
1706 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
1707 sign of the number in question.
1708
1709 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
1710
1711 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
1712 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
1713 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
1714 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
1715 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
1716 [Bodo Moeller]
1717
1718 *) New function BN_swap.
1719 [Bodo Moeller]
1720
1721 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
1722 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
1723 results on negative inputs.
1724 [Bodo Moeller]
1725
1726 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
1727 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
1728 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
1729 [Bodo Moeller]
1730
1731 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
1732 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
1733 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
1734 and add new functions:
1735
1736 BN_nnmod
1737 BN_mod_sqr
1738 BN_mod_add
1739 BN_mod_add_quick
1740 BN_mod_sub
1741 BN_mod_sub_quick
1742 BN_mod_lshift1
1743 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
1744 BN_mod_lshift
1745 BN_mod_lshift_quick
1746
1747 These functions always generate non-negative results.
1748
1749 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
1750 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
1751
1752 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
1753 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
1754 be reduced modulo m.
1755 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
1756
1757 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1758 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1759 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1760 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1761 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1762 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1763 differing sizes.
1764 [Richard Levitte]
1765
1766 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
1767 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
1768 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
1769 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
1770 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
1771
1772 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
1773 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
1774 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
1775 cause any problems.
1776 [Bodo Moeller]
1777
1778 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
1779 [Richard Levitte]
1780
1781 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
1782 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
1783 [Richard Levitte]
1784
1785 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
1786 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
1787 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
1788 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
1789 time)
1790 [Richard Levitte]
1791
1792 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
1793 [Richard Levitte]
1794
1795 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
1796 [Richard Levitte]
1797
1798 *) Add the following functions:
1799
1800 ENGINE_load_cswift()
1801 ENGINE_load_chil()
1802 ENGINE_load_atalla()
1803 ENGINE_load_nuron()
1804 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
1805
1806 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
1807 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
1808 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
1809 libraries unless it's really needed.
1810
1811 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
1812 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
1813 declarations (they differed!).
1814 [Richard Levitte]
1815
1816 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
1817 [Richard Levitte]
1818
1819 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
1820 [Richard Levitte]
1821
1822 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
1823 [Bodo Moeller]
1824
1825 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
1826 identity, and test if they are actually available.
1827 [Richard Levitte]
1828
1829 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
1830 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
1831 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
1832
1833 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
1834 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
1835 [Richard Levitte]
1836
1837 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
1838 [Richard Levitte]
1839
1840 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
1841 [Richard Levitte]
1842
1843 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
1844 [Ben Laurie]
1845
1846 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
1847 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
1848 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
1849
1850 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
1851 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
1852 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
1853 different shared library filenames on each system.
1854 [Geoff Thorpe]
1855
1856 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
1857 [Richard Levitte]
1858
1859 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
1860 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
1861 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
1862 of two sections.
1863 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
1864
1865 *) NCONF changes.
1866 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
1867 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
1868 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
1869 binary backward compatibility.
1870 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
1871 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
1872 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
1873 LDAP server.
1874 [Richard Levitte]
1875
1876 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
1877 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
1878 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
1879 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
1880 this case.
1881 [Steve Henson]
1882
1883 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
1884 [Ben Laurie]
1885
1886 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
1887 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
1888 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
1889 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
1890 set.
1891 [Steve Henson]
1892
1893 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
1894 [Richard Levitte]
1895
1896 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [XX xxx XXXX]
1897
1898 *)
1899
1900 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
1901
1902 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
1903 and get fix the header length calculation.
1904 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
1905 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
1906 Steve Henson]
1907
1908 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
1909 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
1910 assertions could call abort()).
1911 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
1912
1913 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
1914
1915 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
1916 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
1917 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
1918 supplied buffer.
1919 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
1920
1921 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
1922 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
1923 by the selection routines (PR #130).
1924 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1925
1926 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
1927 [Nils Larsch]
1928
1929 *) New option
1930 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
1931 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
1932 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
1933
1934 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
1935 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
1936 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
1937 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
1938 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
1939 applications.
1940 [Bodo Moeller]
1941
1942 *) Changes in security patch:
1943
1944 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
1945 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
1946 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
1947 F30602-01-2-0537.
1948
1949 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
1950 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
1951 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
1952 supplied buffer. (CAN-2002-0659)
1953 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
1954
1955 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
1956 happen in practice.
1957 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1958
1959 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
1960 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CAN-2002-0655)
1961 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
1962
1963 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
1964 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
1965 (CAN-2002-0657)
1966 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1967
1968 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
1969 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CAN-2002-0656)
1970 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1971
1972 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
1973 supply an oversized client master key. (CAN-2002-0656)
1974 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
1975
1976 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
1977
1978 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
1979 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
1980 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
1981
1982 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
1983 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1984
1985 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
1986 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
1987 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
1988 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
1989 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
1990 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
1991 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1992
1993 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
1994 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
1995 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
1996 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
1997 [Bodo Moeller]
1998
1999 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
2000 [Bodo Moeller]
2001
2002 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
2003 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
2004 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
2005 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
2006 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
2007 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
2008
2009 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
2010 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
2011 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
2012 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
2013 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
2014 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2015
2016 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
2017 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
2018 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
2019 BN_generate_prime().)
2020
2021 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
2022 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
2023 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
2024 better.
2025 [Bodo Moeller]
2026
2027 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
2028 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
2029 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2030
2031 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
2032 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
2033 when using non-blocking I/O.
2034 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
2035
2036 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
2037 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
2038
2039 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
2040 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
2041 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2042
2043 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
2044 configuration for the versions before that.
2045 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2046
2047 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
2048 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
2049 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
2050 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
2051 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2052
2053 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
2054 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
2055 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
2056 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2057
2058 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
2059 value is 0.
2060 [Richard Levitte]
2061
2062 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
2063 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
2064
2065 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
2066 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2067 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2068
2069 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
2070 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
2071 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
2072 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
2073 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
2074 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
2075 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
2076 session cache.
2077
2078 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
2079 using a local variable.
2080 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2081
2082 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
2083 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
2084 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2085
2086 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
2087 [Richard Levitte]
2088
2089 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
2090 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
2091
2092 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
2093 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
2094 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
2095
2096 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
2097
2098 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
2099 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
2100 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
2101 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
2102 [Bodo Moeller]
2103
2104 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
2105 present.
2106 [Steve Henson]
2107
2108 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
2109 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
2110 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
2111 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
2112 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
2113
2114 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
2115 returns early because it has nothing to do.
2116 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2117
2118 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2119 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
2120 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2121
2122 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2123 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
2124 (Use engine 'keyclient')
2125 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
2126
2127 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
2128 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
2129 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
2130 modules).
2131 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
2132
2133 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2134 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
2135 from 0.9.7.
2136 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
2137
2138 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2139 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
2140 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2141 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
2142
2143 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
2144 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
2145 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2146 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
2147
2148 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
2149 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
2150
2151 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
2152 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
2153 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
2154 [Bodo Moeller]
2155
2156 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
2157 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
2158 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
2159 become invalid.
2160 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
2161
2162 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
2163 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
2164 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
2165 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
2166 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
2167 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
2168 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
2169 [Bodo Moeller]
2170
2171 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
2172 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
2173 one of the SSL handshake functions.
2174 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
2175
2176 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
2177 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
2178 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
2179 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
2180 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
2181 the client will at least see that alert.
2182 [Bodo Moeller]
2183
2184 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
2185 correctly.
2186 [Bodo Moeller]
2187
2188 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
2189 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
2190 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
2191
2192 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
2193 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
2194 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
2195 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
2196 HelloRequest.
2197
2198 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
2199 before just sending a HelloRequest.
2200 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
2201
2202 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
2203 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
2204 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
2205 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
2206 may leak via logfiles.)
2207
2208 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
2209 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
2210 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
2211 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
2212 the legal range.
2213 [Bodo Moeller]
2214
2215 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
2216 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
2217 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2218
2219 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
2220 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
2221 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
2222 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
2223 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
2224 [Bodo Moeller]
2225
2226 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
2227 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
2228
2229 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
2230 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
2231 followed by modular reduction.
2232 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
2233
2234 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
2235 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
2236 [Bodo Moeller]
2237
2238 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
2239 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
2240 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
2241 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
2242 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2243
2244 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
2245 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2246
2247 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
2248 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
2249 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2250
2251 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
2252 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
2253 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
2254 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
2255 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
2256 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
2257 automatically.
2258 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
2259
2260 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
2261 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
2262 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
2263 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
2264 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
2265
2266 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
2267 [Andy Polyakov]
2268
2269 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
2270 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
2271 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
2272 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
2273 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
2274 to allow the necessary settings.
2275 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2276
2277 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
2278 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
2279 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
2280 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
2281 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2282
2283 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
2284 dh->length and always used
2285
2286 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
2287
2288 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
2289 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
2290 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
2291 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
2292 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
2293 dh->length.
2294
2295 So switch back to
2296
2297 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
2298
2299 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
2300 otherwise.
2301 [Bodo Moeller]
2302
2303 *) In
2304
2305 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
2306 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
2307 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
2308 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
2309
2310 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
2311 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
2312 always reject numbers >= n.
2313 [Bodo Moeller]
2314
2315 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
2316 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
2317 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
2318 variable) is not atomic.
2319 [Bodo Moeller]
2320
2321 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
2322 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
2323 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
2324 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
2325
2326 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
2327 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
2328
2329 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
2330 little-endian MIPS.
2331 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
2332
2333 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
2334 [Richard Levitte]
2335
2336 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
2337
2338 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
2339 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
2340 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
2341 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
2342 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
2343 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
2344 to traverse all of 'state'.
2345
2346 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
2347 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
2348 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
2349
2350 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
2351 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
2352
2353 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
2354 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
2355 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
2356 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
2357 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
2358 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
2359 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
2360 further strengthens the PRNG.
2361 [Bodo Moeller]
2362
2363 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
2364 [Andy Polyakov]
2365
2366 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
2367 an error message in this case.
2368 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2369
2370 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
2371 [Steve Henson]
2372
2373 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
2374 positive and less than q.
2375 [Bodo Moeller]
2376
2377 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
2378 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
2379 that itself.
2380 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
2381
2382 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
2383 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
2384 [Bodo Moeller]
2385
2386 *) Fix OAEP check.
2387 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
2388
2389 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
2390 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
2391 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
2392 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
2393 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
2394 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
2395 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
2396 paper.)
2397
2398 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
2399 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
2400 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
2401 detect the supposedly ignored error.
2402
2403 Both problems are now fixed.
2404 [Bodo Moeller]
2405
2406 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
2407 (previously it was 1024).
2408 [Bodo Moeller]
2409
2410 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
2411 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
2412 [Steve Henson]
2413
2414 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
2415 [Steve Henson]
2416
2417 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
2418 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
2419 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
2420 [Steve Henson]
2421
2422 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
2423 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
2424 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
2425 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
2426 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
2427 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
2428 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
2429 environment variables.
2430
2431 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
2432 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
2433 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
2434 [Bodo Moeller]
2435
2436 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
2437 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
2438 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
2439 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
2440 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
2441 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
2442 [Bodo Moeller]
2443
2444 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
2445 versions of 'test'.
2446 [Bodo Moeller]
2447
2448 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
2449
2450 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
2451 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
2452
2453 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
2454 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
2455 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
2456 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
2457 CygWin.
2458 [Richard Levitte]
2459
2460 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
2461 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
2462 amount of data available.
2463 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
2464 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2465
2466 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
2467 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
2468 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
2469 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
2470 [Bodo Moeller]
2471
2472 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
2473 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
2474 and UnixWare.
2475 [Richard Levitte]
2476
2477 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
2478 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
2479 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
2480 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
2481 [Ulf Moeller]
2482
2483 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
2484 [Andy Polyakov]
2485
2486 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
2487 [Richard Levitte]
2488
2489 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
2490 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
2491 [Steve Henson]
2492 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2493
2494 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
2495 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
2496 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
2497 (but broken) behaviour.
2498 [Steve Henson]
2499
2500 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
2501 it when found.
2502 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
2503
2504 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
2505 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
2506 [Bodo Moeller]
2507
2508 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
2509 did not exist.
2510 [Bodo Moeller]
2511
2512 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
2513 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
2514
2515 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
2516 [Richard Levitte]
2517
2518 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
2519 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
2520 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
2521
2522 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
2523 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
2524 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
2525 [Steve Henson]
2526
2527 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
2528 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
2529 [Ulf Moeller]
2530
2531 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
2532 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
2533
2534 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
2535
2536 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
2537
2538 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
2539 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
2540 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
2541 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
2542 [Bodo Moeller]
2543
2544 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
2545 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2546
2547 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
2548 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
2549 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2550
2551 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
2552 was empty.
2553 [Steve Henson]
2554 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2555
2556 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
2557 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
2558 but the code is actually correct.
2559 [Steve Henson]
2560
2561 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
2562 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
2563 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
2564 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
2565 and leaves the highest bit random.
2566 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
2567
2568 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
2569 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
2570 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
2571 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
2572 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
2573 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
2574 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
2575 [Bodo Moeller]
2576
2577 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
2578 [Ulf Moeller]
2579
2580 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
2581 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
2582 [Steve Henson]
2583
2584 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
2585 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
2586 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
2587 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
2588 headers.
2589 [Richard Levitte]
2590
2591 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
2592 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
2593 and break the signature.
2594 [Steve Henson]
2595 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
2596
2597 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
2598 DH ciphersuites.
2599 [Steve Henson]
2600
2601 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
2602 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
2603 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
2604 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
2605 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
2606 [Bodo Moeller]
2607
2608 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
2609 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
2610
2611 *) ./config script fixes.
2612 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
2613
2614 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
2615 [Bodo Moeller]
2616
2617 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
2618 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
2619 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
2620 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
2621 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
2622
2623 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
2624 call failed, free the DSA structure.
2625 [Bodo Moeller]
2626
2627 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
2628 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
2629 [Steve Henson]
2630
2631 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
2632 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
2633 when writing a 32767 byte record.
2634 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
2635
2636 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
2637 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
2638
2639 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
2640 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
2641 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
2642 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
2643 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
2644
2645 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
2646 [Bodo Moeller]
2647
2648 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
2649 [Ulf Möller]
2650
2651 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
2652 [Ulf Möller]
2653
2654 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
2655 [Bodo Moeller]
2656
2657 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
2658 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
2659 [Bodo Moeller]
2660
2661 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
2662 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
2663 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
2664 result of the server certificate verification.)
2665 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2666
2667 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
2668 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
2669 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
2670 [Bodo Moeller]
2671
2672 *) Fix SSL_peek:
2673 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
2674 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
2675 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
2676 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
2677 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
2678 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
2679 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
2680 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
2681 [Bodo Moeller]
2682
2683 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
2684 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
2685 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
2686 happening the other way round.
2687 [Geoff Thorpe]
2688
2689 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
2690 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
2691 [Bodo Moeller]
2692
2693 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
2694 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
2695 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
2696 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
2697 [Richard Levitte]
2698
2699 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
2700 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
2701
2702 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
2703
2704 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
2705 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
2706 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
2707 that.
2708
2709 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
2710
2711 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
2712
2713 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
2714 static ones.
2715 [Richard Levitte]
2716
2717 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
2718
2719 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
2720 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
2721 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
2722 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
2723 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
2724
2725 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
2726 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
2727 matter what.
2728 [Richard Levitte]
2729
2730 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
2731 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2732
2733 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
2734
2735 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
2736 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
2737 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
2738 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
2739 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
2740 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
2741 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
2742 by the Finished messages.
2743 [Bodo Moeller]
2744
2745 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
2746 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
2747
2748 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
2749 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
2750 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
2751 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
2752 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
2753 appropriately.
2754 [Steve Henson]
2755
2756 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
2757 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
2758 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
2759 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
2760 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
2761 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
2762 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
2763 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
2764 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
2765 together.
2766 [Steve Henson]
2767
2768 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
2769 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
2770 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
2771 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
2772
2773 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
2774 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
2775 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
2776 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
2777 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
2778 the answer.
2779
2780 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
2781 been tested well enough.
2782 [Richard Levitte]
2783
2784 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
2785 it can return incorrect results.
2786 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
2787 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
2788 [Bodo Moeller]
2789
2790 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
2791 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
2792 include zero length content when signing messages.
2793 [Steve Henson]
2794
2795 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
2796 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
2797 [Bodo Möller]
2798
2799 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
2800 [Richard Levitte]
2801
2802 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
2803 wrong sign.
2804 [Ulf Möller]
2805
2806 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
2807 packages. The default package contains applications, application
2808 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
2809 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
2810 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
2811 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
2812 [Richard Levitte]
2813
2814 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
2815 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
2816
2817 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
2818 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
2819
2820 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
2821 random number < q in the DSA library.
2822 [Ulf Möller]
2823
2824 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
2825 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
2826 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
2827 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
2828 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
2829 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
2830 just makes things more complicated.)
2831 [Bodo Moeller]
2832
2833 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
2834 from EGD.
2835 [Ben Laurie]
2836
2837 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
2838 work better on such systems.
2839 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
2840
2841 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
2842 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
2843 keyid to the certificates aux info.
2844 [Steve Henson]
2845
2846 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
2847 if there was more than one signature.
2848 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
2849
2850 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
2851 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
2852 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
2853 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
2854 [Richard Levitte]
2855
2856 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
2857 rather than always using the current time.
2858 [Steve Henson]
2859
2860 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
2861 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
2862 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
2863 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
2864 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
2865 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
2866
2867 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
2868 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
2869
2870 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
2871
2872 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
2873 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
2874 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
2875 the same hash value.
2876
2877 As a result various functions (which were all internal
2878 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
2879 structure. This will break anything that messed round
2880 with X509_STORE internally.
2881
2882 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
2883 exact match, rather than just subject name.
2884
2885 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
2886 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
2887 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
2888 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
2889 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
2890 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
2891 entirely (maybe later...).
2892
2893 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
2894
2895 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
2896 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
2897 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
2898 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
2899 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
2900 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
2901 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
2902 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
2903
2904 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
2905 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
2906
2907 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
2908 to customise the verify behaviour.
2909 [Steve Henson]
2910
2911 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
2912 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
2913 [Steve Henson]
2914
2915 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
2916 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
2917 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
2918 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
2919 request is improperly encoded.
2920 [Steve Henson]
2921
2922 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
2923 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
2924 BIO_write(b, ...).
2925
2926 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
2927 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
2928
2929 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
2930 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
2931 words set to zero.)
2932 [Bodo Moeller]
2933
2934 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
2935 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
2936 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
2937 [Bodo Moeller]
2938
2939 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
2940 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
2941 BIO/fp routines also added.
2942 [Steve Henson]
2943
2944 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
2945 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
2946
2947 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
2948 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
2949 demos/state_machine.
2950 [Ben Laurie]
2951
2952 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
2953 generation and verification.
2954 [Steve Henson]
2955
2956 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
2957 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
2958 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
2959 encode and decode it manually.
2960 [Steve Henson]
2961
2962 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
2963 compile under VC++.
2964 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
2965
2966 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
2967 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
2968 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
2969 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
2970
2971 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
2972 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
2973 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
2974 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
2975 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
2976 [Steve Henson]
2977
2978 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
2979 [Richard Levitte]
2980
2981 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
2982 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
2983 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
2984
2985 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
2986 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
2987 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
2988 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
2989 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
2990 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
2991 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
2992 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
2993
2994 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
2995 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
2996
2997 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
2998
2999 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
3000 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
3001 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
3002
3003 [Richard Levitte]
3004
3005 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
3006 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
3007 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
3008 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
3009 [Richard Levitte]
3010
3011 *) MD4 implemented.
3012 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
3013
3014 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
3015 [Richard Levitte]
3016
3017 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
3018 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
3019 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
3020 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
3021 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
3022 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
3023 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
3024 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
3025 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
3026 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
3027 short or long names are found.
3028 [Steve Henson]
3029
3030 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
3031 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
3032
3033 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
3034 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
3035 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
3036 version rollback attacks was not effective.
3037
3038 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
3039 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
3040 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
3041 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
3042 [Bodo Moeller]
3043
3044 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
3045 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
3046 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
3047 [Richard Levitte]
3048
3049 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
3050 these print out strings and name structures based on various
3051 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
3052 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
3053 to allow the various flags to be set.
3054 [Steve Henson]
3055
3056 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
3057 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
3058 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
3059 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
3060 dates to be checked.
3061 [Steve Henson]
3062
3063 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
3064 negative public key encodings) on by default,
3065 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
3066 [Steve Henson]
3067
3068 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
3069 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
3070 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
3071 [Steve Henson]
3072
3073 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
3074 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
3075 [Bodo Moeller]
3076
3077 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
3078 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
3079 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
3080 are always statically linked for now, but there are
3081 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
3082 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
3083 [Richard Levitte]
3084
3085 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
3086 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
3087 Random Numbers.
3088 [Ulf Möller]
3089
3090 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
3091 DSA key.
3092 [Steve Henson]
3093
3094 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
3095 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
3096 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
3097 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
3098 form signing output easier to verify.
3099 [Steve Henson]
3100
3101 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
3102 [Steve Henson]
3103
3104 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
3105 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
3106 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
3107 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
3108 are needed because all other string types have virtually
3109 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
3110 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
3111 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
3112 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
3113 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
3114 [Steve Henson]
3115
3116 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
3117
3118 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
3119 the syntax given in objects.README.
3120 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
3121 obj_mac.h.
3122 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
3123 obj_mac.h.
3124
3125 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
3126 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
3127 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
3128 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
3129 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
3130 consistent name changes.
3131 [Richard Levitte]
3132
3133 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
3134 [Bodo Moeller]
3135
3136 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
3137 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
3138 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
3139 environment variable, or the default random state file.
3140 [Richard Levitte]
3141
3142 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
3143 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
3144 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
3145 of safestack.h .
3146 [Steve Henson]
3147
3148 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
3149 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
3150 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
3151 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
3152 [Steve Henson]
3153
3154 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
3155 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
3156 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
3157 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
3158 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
3159 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
3160 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
3161 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
3162 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
3163 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
3164 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
3165 [Steve Henson]
3166
3167 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
3168 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
3169 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
3170 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
3171 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
3172 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
3173 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
3174 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
3175 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
3176 algorithm to openssl-dev.
3177 [Steve Henson]
3178
3179 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
3180 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
3181 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
3182 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
3183
3184 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
3185 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
3186 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
3187 omit any duplicate addresses.
3188 [Steve Henson]
3189
3190 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
3191 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
3192 [Bodo Moeller]
3193
3194 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
3195 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
3196 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
3197 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
3198 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
3199 [Bodo Moeller]
3200
3201 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
3202 software:
3203 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
3204 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
3205 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
3206 Free => OPENSSL_free
3207 [Richard Levitte]
3208
3209 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
3210 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
3211 [Bodo Moeller]
3212
3213 *) CygWin32 support.
3214 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
3215
3216 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
3217 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
3218 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
3219 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
3220 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
3221 approach.
3222 [Geoff Thorpe]
3223
3224 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
3225 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
3226 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
3227 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
3228 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
3229 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
3230 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
3231 [Geoff Thorpe]
3232
3233 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
3234 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
3235 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
3236 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
3237 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
3238 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
3239 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
3240 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
3241 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
3242 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
3243 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
3244 [Bodo Moeller]
3245
3246 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
3247 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
3248 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
3249 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
3250 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
3251
3252 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
3253 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
3254 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
3255 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
3256 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
3257
3258 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
3259 ciphers.
3260
3261 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
3262 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
3263 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
3264 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
3265
3266 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
3267
3268 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
3269 of macros.
3270
3271 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
3272 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
3273 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
3274 flags.
3275
3276 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
3277 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
3278 any installed hardware versions can.
3279 [Steve Henson]
3280
3281 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
3282 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
3283 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
3284 number.
3285 [Bodo Moeller]
3286
3287 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
3288 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
3289 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
3290 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
3291 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
3292
3293 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
3294 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
3295 [Steve Henson]
3296
3297 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
3298 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
3299 [Richard Levitte]
3300
3301 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
3302 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
3303 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
3304 features.
3305 [Steve Henson]
3306
3307 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
3308 [Ulf Möller]
3309
3310 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
3311 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
3312 but no ssl client purpose.
3313 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
3314
3315 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
3316 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
3317 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
3318 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
3319 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
3320 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
3321 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
3322 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
3323 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
3324 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
3325 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
3326 [Steve Henson]
3327
3328 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
3329 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
3330 be obtained from the error queue.
3331 [Bodo Moeller]
3332
3333 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
3334 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
3335 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
3336 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
3337 [Bodo Moeller]
3338
3339 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
3340 [Ulf Möller]
3341
3342 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
3343 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
3344 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
3345 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
3346 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
3347 [Geoff Thorpe]
3348
3349 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
3350 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
3351 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
3352 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
3353 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
3354 [Geoff Thorpe]
3355
3356 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
3357 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
3358 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
3359 may not be NULL.
3360 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
3361
3362 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
3363 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
3364 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
3365 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
3366 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
3367 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
3368 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
3369 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
3370 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
3371 or "the configuration storage API"...
3372
3373 The new configuration file reading functions are:
3374
3375 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
3376 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
3377
3378 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
3379
3380 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
3381
3382 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
3383 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
3384 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
3385 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
3386 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
3387 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
3388 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
3389
3390 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
3391 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
3392 [Richard Levitte]
3393
3394 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
3395 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
3396 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
3397 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
3398 [Bodo Moeller]
3399
3400 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
3401 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
3402 them in a portable way.
3403 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
3404
3405 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
3406
3407 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
3408
3409 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
3410 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
3411
3412 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
3413 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
3414 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
3415 <attili@amaxo.com>]
3416
3417 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
3418 was larger than the MD block size.
3419 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
3420
3421 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
3422 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
3423 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
3424 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
3425 components.
3426 [Steve Henson]
3427
3428 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
3429 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
3430 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
3431
3432 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
3433 discouraged.
3434 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
3435
3436 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
3437 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
3438 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
3439 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
3440 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
3441 Additional arguments are always ignored.
3442
3443 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
3444 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
3445
3446 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
3447 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
3448 [Bodo Moeller]
3449
3450 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
3451 [Bodo Moeller]
3452
3453 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
3454 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
3455 its own key.
3456 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
3457 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
3458 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
3459 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
3460 [Bodo Moeller]
3461
3462 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
3463 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
3464 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
3465 does not suppress any output.
3466 [Richard Levitte]
3467
3468 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
3469 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
3470 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
3471 with all the associated security issues.
3472
3473 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
3474 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
3475 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
3476 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
3477 use the value in the default purpose.
3478 [Steve Henson]
3479
3480 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
3481 and fix a memory leak.
3482 [Steve Henson]
3483
3484 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
3485 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
3486 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
3487 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
3488 [Bodo Moeller]
3489
3490 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
3491 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
3492 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
3493 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
3494 [Bodo Moeller]
3495
3496 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
3497 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
3498 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
3499 [Bodo Moeller]
3500
3501 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
3502 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
3503 [Bodo Moeller]
3504
3505 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
3506 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
3507 which was free.
3508 [Steve Henson]
3509
3510 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
3511 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
3512 [Bodo Moeller]
3513
3514 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
3515 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
3516 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
3517 [Bodo Moeller]
3518
3519 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
3520 number generation fails.
3521 [Bodo Moeller]
3522
3523 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
3524 [Bodo Moeller]
3525
3526 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
3527 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
3528
3529 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
3530 [Ulf Möller]
3531
3532 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
3533 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
3534
3535 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
3536 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
3537
3538 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
3539
3540 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
3541 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
3542 [Steve Henson]
3543
3544 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
3545 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
3546
3547 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
3548 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
3549 [Ulf Möller]
3550
3551 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
3552 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
3553 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
3554 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
3555 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
3556 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
3557
3558 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
3559 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
3560 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
3561 for example.
3562 [Steve Henson]
3563
3564 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
3565 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
3566 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
3567 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
3568 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
3569 counter, some don't.)
3570 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
3571 counters or duplicate objects.
3572 [Steve Henson]
3573
3574 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
3575 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
3576 [Steve Henson]
3577
3578 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
3579 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
3580 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
3581
3582 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
3583 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
3584 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
3585 or -rand.
3586 [Ulf Möller]
3587
3588 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
3589 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
3590 [Steve Henson]
3591
3592 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
3593 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
3594 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
3595 cipher list.
3596 [Steve Henson]
3597
3598 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
3599 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
3600 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
3601 [Steve Henson]
3602
3603 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
3604 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
3605 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
3606 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
3607 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
3608 should work without changes.
3609 [Richard Levitte]
3610
3611 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
3612 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
3613 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
3614 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
3615 must be defined. E.g.,
3616 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
3617 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
3618 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
3619 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
3620
3621 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
3622 record layer.
3623 [Bodo Moeller]
3624
3625 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
3626 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
3627 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
3628 [Steve Henson]
3629
3630 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
3631 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
3632 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
3633 request header lines. Some software needs this.
3634 [Steve Henson]
3635
3636 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
3637 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
3638 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
3639 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
3640 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
3641 is prompted for as usual.
3642 [Steve Henson]
3643
3644 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
3645 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
3646 autodetect the card and use it if present.
3647 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
3648
3649 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
3650 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
3651 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
3652 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
3653 [Steve Henson]
3654
3655 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
3656 [Andy Polyakov]
3657
3658 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
3659 of seed file.
3660 [Steve Henson]
3661
3662 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
3663 [Bodo Moeller]
3664
3665 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
3666 [Steve Henson]
3667
3668 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
3669 bits.
3670 [Ulf Möller]
3671
3672 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
3673 [Ulf Möller]
3674
3675 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
3676 [Andy Polyakov]
3677
3678 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
3679 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
3680 [Ulf Möller]
3681
3682 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
3683 options to produce them.
3684 [Steve Henson]
3685
3686 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
3687 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
3688 [Ulf Möller]
3689
3690 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
3691 for p == 0.
3692 [Ulf Möller]
3693
3694 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
3695 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
3696 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
3697 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
3698 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
3699 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
3700 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
3701 [Steve Henson]
3702
3703 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
3704 [Steve Henson]
3705
3706 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
3707 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
3708 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
3709 [Bodo Moeller]
3710
3711 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
3712 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
3713
3714 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
3715 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
3716 [Ulf Möller]
3717
3718 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
3719 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
3720 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
3721 has already seen).
3722 [Bodo Moeller]
3723
3724 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
3725 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
3726
3727 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
3728 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
3729 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
3730 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
3731 generation becomes much faster.
3732
3733 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
3734 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
3735 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
3736 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
3737 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
3738 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
3739 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
3740 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
3741 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
3742 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
3743 [Bodo Moeller]
3744
3745 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
3746 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
3747 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
3748 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
3749 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
3750 trial division stage.
3751 [Bodo Moeller]
3752
3753 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
3754 as ASN1_TIME.
3755 [Steve Henson]
3756
3757 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
3758 [Steve Henson]
3759
3760 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
3761 [Ulf Möller]
3762
3763 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
3764 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
3765 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
3766 the comments.
3767 [Ulf Möller]
3768
3769 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
3770 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
3771 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
3772 [Bodo Moeller]
3773
3774 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
3775 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
3776 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
3777 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
3778
3779 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
3780 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
3781 [Steve Henson]
3782
3783 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
3784 [Ulf Möller]
3785
3786 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
3787 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
3788 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
3789 Rabin-Miller iterations.
3790 [Ulf Möller]
3791
3792 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
3793 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
3794 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
3795 [Ulf Möller]
3796
3797 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
3798 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
3799 (instead of parameters) in future.
3800 [Steve Henson]
3801
3802 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
3803 when a new cipher list is set.
3804 [Steve Henson]
3805
3806 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
3807 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
3808 wrong.
3809
3810 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
3811 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
3812 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
3813
3814 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
3815 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
3816 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
3817 an error is flagged.
3818
3819 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
3820 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
3821 the readability was also increased :-)
3822 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
3823
3824 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
3825 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
3826 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
3827 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
3828 as the root CA.
3829 [Steve Henson]
3830
3831 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
3832 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
3833 [Steve Henson]
3834
3835 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
3836 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
3837 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
3838 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
3839 instead.
3840
3841 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
3842 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
3843 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
3844 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
3845 because they handle more complex structures.)
3846 [Steve Henson]
3847
3848 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
3849 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
3850 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
3851 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
3852
3853 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
3854 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
3855 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
3856 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
3857 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
3858 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
3859 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
3860 [Ulf Möller]
3861
3862 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
3863 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
3864 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
3865 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
3866 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
3867 [Bodo Moeller]
3868
3869 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
3870 [Bodo Moeller]
3871
3872 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
3873 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
3874 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
3875 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
3876 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
3877 to use this.
3878
3879 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
3880 code.
3881 [Steve Henson]
3882
3883 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
3884 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
3885 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
3886 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
3887 [Steve Henson]
3888
3889 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
3890 [Ulf Möller]
3891
3892 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
3893 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
3894 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
3895 international characters are used.
3896
3897 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
3898 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
3899 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
3900 in ASN1 order.
3901 [Steve Henson]
3902
3903 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
3904 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
3905 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
3906 request.
3907
3908 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
3909 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
3910 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
3911 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
3912 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
3913 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
3914
3915 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
3916 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
3917 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
3918 be handled by the string table functions.
3919
3920 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
3921 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
3922 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
3923 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
3924 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
3925 types at all.
3926 [Steve Henson]
3927
3928 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
3929 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
3930 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
3931 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
3932 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
3933
3934 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
3935 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
3936 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
3937 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
3938 [Bodo Moeller]
3939
3940 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
3941 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
3942 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
3943 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
3944 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
3945 SHA1.
3946 [Andy Polyakov]
3947
3948 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
3949 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
3950 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
3951 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
3952 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
3953 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
3954 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
3955 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
3956
3957 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
3958 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
3959 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
3960 [Steve Henson]
3961
3962 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
3963 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
3964 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
3965 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
3966 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
3967 support to pkcs8 application.
3968 [Steve Henson]
3969
3970 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
3971 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
3972 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
3973 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
3974 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
3975 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
3976 [Bodo Moeller]
3977
3978 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
3979 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
3980 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
3981 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
3982 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
3983 consistency.
3984 [Bodo Moeller]
3985
3986 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
3987 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
3988 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
3989 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
3990 example.
3991 [Steve Henson]
3992
3993 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
3994 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
3995 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
3996 and any application specific purposes.
3997
3998 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
3999 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
4000 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
4001 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
4002 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
4003 if the certificate is self signed.
4004 [Steve Henson]
4005
4006 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
4007 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
4008 [Steve Henson]
4009
4010 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
4011 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
4012 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
4013 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
4014 [Steve Henson]
4015
4016 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
4017 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
4018 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
4019 Update documentation.
4020 [Steve Henson]
4021
4022 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
4023 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
4024 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
4025 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
4026 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
4027 [Steve Henson]
4028
4029 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
4030 for details.
4031 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
4032
4033 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
4034 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
4035 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
4036 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
4037 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
4038 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
4039 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
4040 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
4041 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
4042 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
4043
4044 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
4045
4046 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
4047 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
4048 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
4049 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
4050 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
4051
4052 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
4053 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
4054 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
4055 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
4056 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
4057 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
4058 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
4059 request additional information:
4060 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
4061 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
4062
4063 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
4064 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
4065 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
4066 options.
4067
4068 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
4069 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
4070
4071 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
4072 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
4073 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
4074
4075 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
4076 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
4077
4078 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
4079 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
4080 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
4081 algorithm.
4082 [Steve Henson]
4083
4084 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
4085 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
4086 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
4087
4088 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
4089 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
4090 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
4091 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
4092 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
4093 included in OpenSSL.
4094 [Steve Henson]
4095
4096 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
4097 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
4098 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
4099 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
4100 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
4101 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
4102 [Bodo Moeller]
4103
4104 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
4105 PKCS12 structure.
4106 [Steve Henson]
4107
4108 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
4109 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
4110 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
4111 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
4112 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
4113 structure.
4114 [Steve Henson]
4115
4116 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
4117 need initialising.
4118 [Steve Henson]
4119
4120 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
4121 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
4122 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
4123 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
4124 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
4125 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
4126 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
4127 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
4128 be maintained manually.
4129
4130 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
4131 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
4132 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
4133 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
4134 work because people forget to call this function]
4135 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
4136 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
4137 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
4138 [Steve Henson]
4139
4140 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
4141 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
4142 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
4143 should be discouraged from doing it.
4144 [Ben Laurie]
4145
4146 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
4147 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
4148 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
4149 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
4150 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
4151 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
4152 [Steve Henson]
4153
4154 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
4155 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
4156 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
4157
4158 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
4159 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
4160 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
4161
4162 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
4163 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
4164 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
4165 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
4166 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
4167 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
4168
4169 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
4170 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
4171 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
4172
4173 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
4174 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
4175 and vice versa.
4176
4177 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
4178 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
4179 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
4180 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
4181 [Steve Henson]
4182
4183 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
4184 [Steve Henson]
4185
4186 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
4187 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
4188 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
4189 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
4190 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
4191 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
4192 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
4193 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
4194 keys so we should be OK.
4195
4196 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
4197 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
4198 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
4199 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
4200 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
4201 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
4202 stay in the name of compatibility.
4203
4204 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
4205 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
4206 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
4207
4208 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
4209 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
4210 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
4211 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
4212 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
4213 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
4214 supplied key).
4215 [Steve Henson]
4216
4217 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
4218 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
4219 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
4220 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
4221 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
4222 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
4223 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
4224 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
4225 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
4226 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
4227 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
4228 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
4229 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
4230 [Steve Henson]
4231
4232 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
4233 [Steve Henson]
4234
4235 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
4236 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
4237 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
4238 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
4239 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
4240 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
4241 single self signed certificate. This means that:
4242 openssl verify ss.pem
4243 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
4244 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
4245 is OK.
4246 [Steve Henson]
4247
4248 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
4249 (and add it to external session representation).
4250 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
4251 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
4252 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
4253 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
4254 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
4255 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
4256 security holes.
4257 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
4258
4259 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
4260 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
4261 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
4262 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
4263
4264 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
4265 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
4266 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
4267 [Steve Henson]
4268
4269 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
4270 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
4271 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
4272 code.
4273 [Steve Henson]
4274
4275 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
4276 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
4277 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
4278
4279 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
4280 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
4281 certificate auxiliary information.
4282 [Steve Henson]
4283
4284 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
4285 the 'enc' command.
4286 [Steve Henson]
4287
4288 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
4289 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
4290 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
4291 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
4292 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
4293 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
4294 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
4295 [Richard Levitte]
4296
4297 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
4298 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
4299 [Steve Henson]
4300
4301 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
4302 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
4303 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
4304 manpages and fix a few bugs.
4305 [Steve Henson]
4306
4307 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
4308 [Steve Henson]
4309
4310 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
4311 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
4312 [Steve Henson]
4313
4314 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
4315 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
4316 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
4317 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
4318 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
4319 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
4320 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
4321 using the new 'x509' options.
4322
4323 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
4324 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
4325 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
4326 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
4327 for all purposes.
4328 [Steve Henson]
4329
4330 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
4331 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
4332 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
4333 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
4334 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
4335 [Mark Cox]
4336
4337 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
4338 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
4339 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
4340 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
4341 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
4342 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
4343 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
4344 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
4345 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
4346 the key length and effective key length are equal.
4347 [Steve Henson]
4348
4349 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
4350 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
4351 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
4352 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
4353 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
4354 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
4355 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
4356 [Steve Henson]
4357
4358 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
4359 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
4360 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
4361 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
4362 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
4363 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
4364 openssl.cnf for more info.
4365 [Steve Henson]
4366
4367 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
4368 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
4369 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
4370 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
4371 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
4372 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
4373 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
4374 md should be large enough anyway.
4375 [Bodo Moeller]
4376
4377 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
4378 for handling the random seed file.
4379
4380 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
4381 ca,
4382 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
4383 s_client,
4384 s_server,
4385 x509 (when signing).
4386 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
4387 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
4388 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
4389
4390 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
4391 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
4392 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
4393 that support '-rand'.
4394 [Bodo Moeller]
4395
4396 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
4397 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
4398 [Bodo Moeller]
4399
4400 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
4401 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
4402 [Bill Perry]
4403
4404 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
4405 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
4406 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
4407 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
4408 is suitable.
4409 [Steve Henson]
4410
4411 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
4412 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
4413 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
4414 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
4415 [Steve Henson]
4416
4417 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
4418 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
4419 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
4420 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
4421 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
4422 print out all the purposes.
4423 [Steve Henson]
4424
4425 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
4426 functions.
4427 [Steve Henson]
4428
4429 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
4430 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
4431 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
4432 single function call.
4433 [Steve Henson]
4434
4435 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
4436 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
4437 [Andy Polyakov]
4438
4439 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
4440 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
4441 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
4442 [Steve Henson]
4443
4444 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
4445 when producing the local key id.
4446 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
4447
4448 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
4449 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
4450 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
4451 "server.pem".
4452 [Steve Henson]
4453
4454 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
4455 a public key to be input or output. For example:
4456 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
4457 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
4458 [Steve Henson]
4459
4460 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
4461 in the message. This was handled by allowing
4462 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
4463 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
4464
4465 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
4466 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
4467 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
4468 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4469
4470 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
4471 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
4472 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
4473 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
4474 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
4475 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
4476 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
4477 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
4478 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
4479 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
4480 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
4481 trivial: move one line.
4482 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
4483
4484 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
4485 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
4486 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
4487 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
4488 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
4489 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
4490 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
4491 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
4492 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
4493 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
4494 with an event loop for example.
4495 [Steve Henson]
4496
4497 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
4498 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
4499 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
4500 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
4501 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
4502 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
4503 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
4504 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
4505 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
4506 [Steve Henson]
4507
4508 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
4509 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
4510 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
4511 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
4512 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
4513 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
4514 [Steve Henson]
4515
4516 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
4517 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
4518 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
4519 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
4520
4521 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
4522 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
4523 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
4524 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
4525 key generation.
4526 [Steve Henson]
4527
4528 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
4529 (still largely untested)
4530 [Bodo Moeller]
4531
4532 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
4533 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
4534 [Steve Henson]
4535
4536 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
4537 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
4538 [Steve Henson]
4539
4540 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
4541 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
4542 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
4543 [Bodo Moeller]
4544
4545 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
4546 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
4547 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
4548 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
4549 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
4550 [Steve Henson]
4551
4552 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
4553 [Andy Polyakov]
4554
4555 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
4556 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
4557 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
4558 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
4559 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
4560 in ca.
4561 [Steve Henson]
4562
4563 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
4564 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
4565 1.OU="Unit name 1"
4566 2.OU="Unit name 2"
4567 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
4568 [Steve Henson]
4569
4570 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
4571 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
4572 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
4573 are otherwise ignored at present.
4574 [Steve Henson]
4575
4576 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
4577 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
4578 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
4579 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
4580 copied until the next read.
4581 [Steve Henson]
4582
4583 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
4584 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
4585 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
4586 [Steve Henson]
4587
4588 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
4589 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
4590 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
4591 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
4592 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
4593 associated functions.
4594 [Steve Henson]
4595
4596 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
4597 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
4598 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
4599 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
4600 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
4601 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
4602 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
4603 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
4604 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
4605 memory BIOs.
4606 [Steve Henson]
4607
4608 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
4609 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
4610 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
4611 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
4612 [Bodo Moeller]
4613
4614 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
4615 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
4616 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
4617 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
4618 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
4619 functionality.
4620 [Steve Henson]
4621
4622 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
4623 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
4624 under Win32.
4625 [Steve Henson]
4626
4627 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
4628 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
4629 extensions to be obtained and added.
4630 [Steve Henson]
4631
4632 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
4633 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
4634 [Bodo Moeller]
4635
4636 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
4637
4638 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
4639 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4640
4641 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
4642 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
4643
4644 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
4645 program.
4646 [Steve Henson]
4647
4648 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
4649 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
4650 DH parameters contain its length).
4651
4652 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
4653 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
4654 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
4655 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
4656 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
4657 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
4658 utter importance to use
4659 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4660 or
4661 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
4662 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
4663 attacks may become possible!
4664 [Bodo Moeller]
4665
4666 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
4667 [Bodo Moeller]
4668
4669 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
4670 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
4671 [Steve Henson]
4672
4673 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
4674 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
4675 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
4676 or long name.
4677 [Steve Henson]
4678
4679 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
4680 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
4681 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
4682 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
4683 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
4684 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
4685 private key operations.
4686 [Steve Henson]
4687
4688 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
4689 [Andy Polyakov]
4690
4691 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
4692 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
4693 to
4694 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
4695 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
4696 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
4697 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
4698 the password callback is called.
4699 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
4700
4701 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
4702
4703 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
4704 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
4705 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
4706 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
4707 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
4708 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
4709 this will work.
4710
4711 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
4712 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
4713 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
4714 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
4715 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
4716 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
4717 [Bodo Moeller]
4718
4719 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
4720 [Andy Polyakov]
4721
4722 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
4723 delete an unused file.
4724 [Ulf Möller]
4725
4726 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
4727 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
4728 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
4729 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
4730 [Steve Henson]
4731
4732 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
4733 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
4734 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
4735 of an error.
4736 [Bodo Moeller]
4737
4738 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
4739 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
4740 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4741
4742 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
4743 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
4744 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
4745 comparison" warnings.
4746 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
4747 [Steve Henson]
4748
4749 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
4750 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
4751 derived keys are printed to stderr.
4752 [Steve Henson]
4753
4754 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
4755 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
4756
4757 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
4758 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
4759
4760 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
4761 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
4762 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
4763
4764 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
4765 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
4766 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
4767 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
4768 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
4769 this bug.
4770 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
4771
4772 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
4773 The interface is as follows:
4774 Applications can use
4775 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
4776 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
4777 "off" is now the default.
4778 The library internally uses
4779 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
4780 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
4781 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
4782
4783 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
4784 even the default) are now avoided.
4785
4786 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
4787 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
4788 than just having a counter.
4789
4790 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
4791
4792 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
4793 extensions.
4794 [Bodo Moeller]
4795
4796 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
4797 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
4798 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
4799 Initial "mode" flags are:
4800
4801 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
4802 a single record has been written.
4803 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
4804 retries use the same buffer location.
4805 (But all of the contents must be
4806 copied!)
4807 [Bodo Moeller]
4808
4809 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
4810 worked.
4811
4812 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
4813 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
4814
4815 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
4816 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
4817 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
4818 [Steve Henson]
4819
4820 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
4821 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
4822 test programs.
4823 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
4824
4825 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
4826 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
4827 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
4828 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
4829 point to the end.
4830 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
4831 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
4832
4833 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
4834 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
4835 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
4836 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
4837 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
4838 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
4839 [Steve Henson]
4840
4841 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
4842 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
4843 necessary function names.
4844 [Steve Henson]
4845
4846 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
4847 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
4848 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
4849 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
4850 [Bodo Moeller]
4851
4852 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
4853 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
4854 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
4855 [Steve Henson]
4856
4857 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
4858 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
4859 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
4860 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
4861 such programs?)
4862 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
4863 need locks.
4864 [Bodo Moeller]
4865
4866 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
4867 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
4868 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
4869 [Bodo Moeller]
4870
4871 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
4872 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
4873 appropriate.
4874 [Bodo Moeller]
4875
4876 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
4877 for the encoded length.
4878 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
4879
4880 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
4881 [Steve Henson]
4882
4883 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
4884 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
4885 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
4886 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
4887 [Steve Henson]
4888
4889 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
4890 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
4891 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
4892
4893 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
4894 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
4895 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
4896 unusual formatting.
4897 [Steve Henson]
4898
4899 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
4900 to use the new extension code.
4901 [Steve Henson]
4902
4903 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
4904 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
4905 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
4906 constant.
4907 [Steve Henson]
4908
4909 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
4910 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
4911 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
4912 [Bodo Moeller]
4913
4914 #if 0
4915 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
4916 [Ben Laurie]
4917 #else
4918 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
4919 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
4920 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
4921 #endif
4922
4923 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
4924 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
4925 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
4926 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
4927 [Ben Laurie]
4928
4929 *) DES library cleanups.
4930 [Ulf Möller]
4931
4932 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
4933 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
4934 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
4935 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
4936 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
4937 of v2.0.
4938 [Steve Henson]
4939
4940 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
4941 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
4942 [Bodo Moeller]
4943
4944 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
4945 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
4946 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
4947 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
4948 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
4949 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
4950 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
4951 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
4952 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
4953 [Steve Henson]
4954
4955 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
4956 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
4957 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
4958 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
4959 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
4960 value doesn't matter.
4961 [Steve Henson]
4962
4963 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
4964 support mutable.
4965 [Ben Laurie]
4966
4967 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
4968 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
4969 "linux-sparc" configuration.
4970 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
4971
4972 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
4973 [Ulf Möller]
4974
4975 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
4976 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
4977 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4978
4979 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
4980 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
4981
4982 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
4983 [Ben Laurie]
4984
4985 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
4986 [Ben Laurie]
4987
4988 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
4989 [Ben Laurie]
4990
4991 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
4992 [Bodo Moeller]
4993
4994
4995 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
4996
4997 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
4998
4999 *) Updated some demos.
5000 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
5001
5002 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
5003 [Wu Zhigang]
5004
5005 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
5006 [Steve Henson]
5007
5008 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
5009 [Steve Henson]
5010
5011 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
5012 instead of using a fixed path.
5013 [Bodo Moeller]
5014
5015 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
5016 [Andy Polyakov]
5017
5018 *) Improvements for VMS support.
5019 [Richard Levitte]
5020
5021
5022 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
5023
5024 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
5025 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
5026 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5027
5028 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
5029 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
5030 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
5031 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
5032 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
5033 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
5034 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
5035 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
5036 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
5037 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
5038 [Steve Henson]
5039
5040 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
5041 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
5042 [Steve Henson]
5043
5044 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
5045 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
5046 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
5047 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
5048 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
5049
5050 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
5051 [Bodo Moeller]
5052
5053 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
5054 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
5055 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
5056 [Steve Henson]
5057
5058 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
5059 [Ben Laurie]
5060
5061 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
5062 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
5063 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
5064 key elements as negative integers.
5065 [Steve Henson]
5066
5067 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
5068 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5069
5070 *) VMS support.
5071 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
5072
5073 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
5074 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
5075 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
5076 [Steve Henson]
5077
5078 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
5079 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
5080 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
5081 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
5082 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
5083 [Bodo Moeller]
5084
5085 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
5086 [Ulf Möller]
5087
5088 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
5089 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
5090 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
5091 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5092
5093 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
5094 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
5095 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
5096
5097 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
5098 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
5099 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
5100 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
5101 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
5102 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
5103 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
5104 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
5105 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
5106
5107 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
5108 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
5109 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
5110 does not influence s as it used to.
5111
5112 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
5113 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
5114 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
5115 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
5116 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
5117 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
5118 [Bodo Moeller]
5119
5120 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
5121 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
5122 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
5123 key type.
5124 [Steve Henson]
5125
5126 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
5127 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
5128 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
5129 and 'x509').
5130 [Steve Henson]
5131
5132 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
5133 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
5134 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
5135 extension option.
5136 [Steve Henson]
5137
5138 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
5139 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
5140 [Ben Laurie]
5141
5142 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
5143 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
5144
5145 *) Support Mingw32.
5146 [Ulf Möller]
5147
5148 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
5149 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5150
5151 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
5152 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5153
5154 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
5155 [Ulf Möller]
5156
5157 *) Update HPUX configuration.
5158 [Anonymous]
5159
5160 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
5161 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5162
5163 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
5164 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
5165 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
5166 DER-encoded.)
5167 [Bodo Moeller]
5168
5169 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
5170 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
5171 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
5172 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
5173 now it really counts the depth.
5174 [Bodo Moeller]
5175
5176 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
5177 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
5178 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
5179 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
5180 didn't match the private key).
5181
5182 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
5183 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
5184 connection using the SSL_CTX).
5185 [Bodo Moeller]
5186
5187 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
5188 [Ulf Möller]
5189
5190 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
5191 David Harris.
5192 [Bodo Moeller]
5193
5194 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
5195 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
5196 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
5197 [Bodo Moeller]
5198
5199 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
5200 [Bodo Moeller]
5201
5202 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
5203 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
5204 such as /usr/local/bin.
5205 [Bodo Moeller]
5206
5207 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
5208 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
5209
5210 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
5211 [Ulf Möller]
5212
5213 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
5214 extension adding in x509 utility.
5215 [Steve Henson]
5216
5217 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
5218 [Ulf Möller]
5219
5220 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
5221 prototypes.
5222 [Steve Henson]
5223
5224 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
5225 [Ulf Möller]
5226
5227 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
5228 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
5229 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
5230 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
5231 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
5232 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
5233 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
5234 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
5235 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
5236 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
5237 [Steve Henson]
5238
5239 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
5240 [Bodo Moeller]
5241
5242 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
5243 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
5244 [Bodo Moeller]
5245
5246 *) Fix some race conditions.
5247 [Bodo Moeller]
5248
5249 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
5250 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
5251 [Steve Henson]
5252
5253 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
5254 [Ulf Möller]
5255
5256 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
5257 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
5258 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
5259 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
5260
5261 *) Fix lots of warnings.
5262 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5263
5264 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
5265 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
5266 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5267
5268 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
5269 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5270
5271 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
5272 [Ulf Möller]
5273
5274 *) Fix typos in error codes.
5275 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
5276
5277 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
5278 [Ulf Möller]
5279
5280 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
5281 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
5282
5283 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
5284 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
5285 [Steve Henson]
5286
5287 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
5288 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
5289 [Ben Laurie]
5290
5291 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
5292 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
5293 [Steve Henson]
5294
5295 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
5296 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
5297 [Steve Henson]
5298
5299 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
5300 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
5301 [Steve Henson]
5302
5303 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
5304 support typesafe stack.
5305 [Steve Henson]
5306
5307 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
5308 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
5309
5310 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
5311 old X509V3 handling code.
5312 [Steve Henson]
5313
5314 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
5315 [Ulf Möller]
5316
5317 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
5318 [Bodo Moeller]
5319
5320 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
5321 [Ben Laurie]
5322
5323 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
5324 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
5325
5326 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
5327 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
5328 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
5329 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
5330 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
5331 [Ben Laurie]
5332
5333 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
5334 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
5335 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
5336 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
5337 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
5338
5339 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
5340 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
5341 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
5342 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5343
5344 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
5345 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
5346 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
5347 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5348
5349 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
5350 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
5351 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
5352 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
5353 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
5354 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
5355 [Bodo Moeller]
5356
5357 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
5358 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
5359 [Bodo Moeller]
5360
5361 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
5362 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
5363 [Ulf Möller]
5364
5365 *) Tweaks to Configure
5366 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
5367
5368 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
5369 yet...
5370 [Steve Henson]
5371
5372 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
5373 [Ulf Möller]
5374
5375 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
5376 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
5377 [Ulf Möller]
5378
5379 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
5380 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
5381 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
5382 [Bodo Moeller]
5383
5384 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
5385 [Bodo Moeller]
5386
5387 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
5388 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
5389 [Steve Henson]
5390
5391 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
5392 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
5393 to library startup routines.
5394 [Steve Henson]
5395
5396 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
5397 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
5398 codes along the way.
5399 [Steve Henson]
5400
5401 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
5402 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
5403 objects to objects.h
5404 [Steve Henson]
5405
5406 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
5407 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
5408 [Steve Henson]
5409
5410 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
5411 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
5412
5413 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
5414 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
5415 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
5416
5417 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
5418 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
5419 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5420
5421 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
5422 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
5423 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
5424
5425
5426 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
5427
5428 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
5429 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
5430 [Ben Laurie]
5431
5432 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
5433 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
5434 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
5435 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
5436 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
5437
5438 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
5439 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
5440 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
5441 document.
5442 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5443
5444 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
5445 Malloc, Free.
5446 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
5447
5448 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
5449 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5450
5451 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
5452 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
5453 if someone would make that last step automatic.
5454 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
5455
5456 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
5457 [Ben Laurie]
5458
5459 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
5460 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
5461 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
5462 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
5463 [Steve Henson]
5464
5465 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
5466 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
5467 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
5468 [Steve Henson]
5469
5470 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
5471 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
5472 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
5473 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
5474 installed as `perl').
5475 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5476
5477 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
5478 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5479
5480 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
5481 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
5482 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
5483 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
5484 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
5485 [Steve Henson]
5486
5487 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
5488 [Ben Laurie]
5489
5490 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
5491 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
5492 is horrible: I feel ill....
5493 [Steve Henson]
5494
5495 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
5496 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
5497 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
5498 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
5499 [Steve Henson]
5500
5501 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
5502 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5503
5504 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
5505 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
5506 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
5507 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5508
5509 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
5510 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
5511 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
5512 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
5513 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
5514 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
5515 openssl_bio.xs.
5516 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5517
5518 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
5519 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5520
5521 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
5522 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
5523
5524 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
5525 [Ben Laurie]
5526
5527 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
5528 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
5529 in CRLs.
5530 [Steve Henson]
5531
5532 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
5533 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
5534 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
5535 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
5536 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
5537 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
5538 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
5539 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
5540 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
5541 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
5542 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5543
5544 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
5545 [Ben Laurie]
5546
5547 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
5548 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
5549 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
5550 for linking it into DSOs.
5551 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5552
5553 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
5554 Fixed.
5555 [Ben Laurie]
5556
5557 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
5558 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
5559 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
5560 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
5561 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
5562 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5563
5564 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
5565 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
5566 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
5567 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
5568 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
5569 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
5570 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5571
5572 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
5573 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
5574 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
5575 encryption.
5576 [Ben Laurie]
5577
5578 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
5579 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
5580 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
5581 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
5582 [Steve Henson]
5583
5584 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
5585 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
5586 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
5587 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
5588 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
5589 field as blank.
5590 [Steve Henson]
5591
5592 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
5593 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
5594 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
5595 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
5596 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5597
5598 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
5599 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
5600 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5601
5602 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
5603 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
5604
5605 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
5606 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
5607 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
5608 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
5609 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
5610 [Steve Henson]
5611
5612 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
5613 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
5614 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
5615 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
5616 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
5617 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
5618 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
5619 [Ben Laurie]
5620
5621 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
5622 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
5623 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
5624 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
5625 [Ben Laurie]
5626
5627 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
5628 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
5629
5630 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
5631 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
5632 [Steve Henson]
5633
5634 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
5635 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
5636 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
5637 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
5638 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
5639 (e.g. s_server).
5640 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
5641 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
5642 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
5643 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
5644 no way to reconfigure them.
5645 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
5646 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
5647 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
5648 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
5649 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
5650 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5651
5652 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
5653 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
5654 recognized by the users.
5655 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5656
5657 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
5658 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
5659 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
5660 already masked variable.
5661 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5662
5663 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
5664 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5665
5666 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
5667 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
5668 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
5669 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
5670
5671 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
5672 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
5673 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5674
5675 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
5676 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
5677 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
5678 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
5679 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
5680 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
5681 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
5682 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
5683 now, too.
5684 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5685
5686 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
5687 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
5688 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5689
5690 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
5691 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
5692 config file.
5693 [Steve Henson]
5694
5695 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
5696 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
5697
5698 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
5699 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
5700 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
5701 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
5702 [Ben Laurie]
5703
5704 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
5705 [Steve Henson]
5706
5707 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
5708 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5709
5710 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
5711 [Ben Laurie]
5712
5713 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
5714 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
5715 [Steve Henson]
5716
5717 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
5718 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
5719 [Steve Henson]
5720
5721 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
5722 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
5723 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
5724 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
5725 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
5726 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
5727 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
5728 Ben Laurie]
5729
5730 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
5731 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5732
5733 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
5734 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
5735 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
5736 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
5737 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5738
5739 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
5740 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
5741 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
5742 [Steve Henson]
5743
5744 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
5745 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
5746 an example.
5747 [Steve Henson]
5748
5749 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
5750 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
5751 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5752
5753 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
5754 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
5755 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
5756 build instructions.
5757 [Steve Henson]
5758
5759 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
5760 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
5761 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
5762 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
5763 [Steve Henson]
5764
5765 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
5766 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
5767 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
5768 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
5769 [Ben Laurie]
5770
5771 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
5772 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
5773 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
5774 so it wasn't spotted.
5775 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
5776
5777 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
5778 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
5779 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
5780 vectors if you have them.
5781 [Ben Laurie]
5782
5783 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
5784 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
5785 [Ben Laurie]
5786
5787 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
5788 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
5789 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
5790 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
5791 If you do a:
5792 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
5793 it will update them.
5794 [Steve Henson]
5795
5796 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
5797 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
5798 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
5799 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
5800 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
5801 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
5802 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
5803 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5804
5805 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
5806 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
5807 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
5808 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
5809 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
5810 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
5811 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
5812 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
5813 the crypto/md/ stuff).
5814 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
5815
5816 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
5817 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
5818 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
5819 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
5820 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
5821 [Steve Henson]
5822
5823 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
5824 INTEGER code.
5825 [Steve Henson]
5826
5827 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
5828 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5829
5830 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
5831 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
5832
5833 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
5834 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
5835 [Ben Laurie]
5836
5837 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
5838 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
5839
5840 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
5841 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
5842
5843 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
5844 [Steve Henson]
5845
5846 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
5847 few typos.
5848 [Steve Henson]
5849
5850 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
5851 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
5852 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
5853 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
5854
5855 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
5856 [Steve Henson]
5857
5858 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
5859 [Steve Henson]
5860
5861 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
5862 [Steve Henson]
5863
5864 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
5865 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
5866 [Steve Henson]
5867
5868 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
5869 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
5870 CA extensions.
5871 [Steve Henson]
5872
5873 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
5874 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
5875 [Steve Henson]
5876
5877 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
5878 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
5879 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
5880 [Steve Henson]
5881
5882 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
5883 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
5884 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
5885 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
5886 properly to be processed.
5887 [Steve Henson]
5888
5889 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
5890 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
5891 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
5892 [Ben Laurie]
5893
5894 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
5895 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
5896
5897 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
5898 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
5899 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
5900 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
5901 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
5902 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
5903 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
5904 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
5905 or delete all the .err files.
5906 [Steve Henson]
5907
5908 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
5909 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
5910 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
5911 to regenerate it if needed.
5912 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
5913 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
5914
5915 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
5916 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5917
5918 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
5919 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
5920 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
5921 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
5922 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
5923 [Steve Henson]
5924
5925 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
5926 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
5927
5928 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
5929 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5930
5931 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
5932 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
5933 error, but didn't set one).
5934 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5935
5936 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
5937 [Ben Laurie]
5938
5939 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
5940 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
5941 [Steve Henson]
5942
5943 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
5944 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
5945
5946 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
5947 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
5948 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
5949 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
5950 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
5951 OID is not part of the table.
5952 [Steve Henson]
5953
5954 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
5955 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
5956 [Ben Laurie]
5957
5958 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
5959 [Ben Laurie]
5960
5961 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
5962 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
5963 was "1234").
5964 [Steve Henson]
5965
5966 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
5967 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
5968
5969 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
5970 NULL pointers.
5971 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5972
5973 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
5974 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5975
5976 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
5977 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
5978
5979 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
5980 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
5981
5982 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
5983 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
5984 [Ben Laurie]
5985
5986 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
5987 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
5988 [Steve Henson]
5989
5990 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
5991 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5992
5993 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
5994 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5995
5996 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
5997 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
5998
5999 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
6000 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6001
6002 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
6003 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
6004 unused in the certificate verification process.
6005 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6006
6007 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
6008 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
6009 [Steve Henson]
6010
6011 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
6012 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
6013 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
6014
6015 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
6016 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
6017 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
6018 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
6019 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
6020
6021 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
6022 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
6023 [Steve Henson]
6024
6025 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
6026 [Steve Henson]
6027
6028 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
6029 [Paul Sutton]
6030
6031 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
6032 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
6033
6034 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
6035 [Ben Laurie]
6036
6037 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
6038 [Ben Laurie]
6039
6040 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
6041 [Ben Laurie]
6042
6043 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
6044 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
6045 other error libraries.
6046 [Steve Henson]
6047
6048 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
6049 [Steve Henson]
6050
6051 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
6052 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
6053 be read in.
6054 [Steve Henson]
6055
6056 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
6057 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
6058 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
6059 the new set of documenation files.
6060 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6061
6062 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
6063 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
6064 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
6065 number of arguments.
6066 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
6067
6068 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
6069 [Ben Laurie]
6070
6071 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
6072 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
6073 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
6074
6075 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
6076 [Ben Laurie]
6077
6078 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
6079 nextstep
6080 ncr-scde
6081 unixware-2.0
6082 unixware-2.0-pentium
6083 sco5-cc.
6084 [Ben Laurie]
6085
6086 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
6087 before they are needed.
6088 [Ben Laurie]
6089
6090 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
6091 [Ben Laurie]
6092
6093
6094 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
6095
6096 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
6097 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
6098 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6099
6100 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
6101 [Paul Sutton]
6102
6103 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
6104 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
6105 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6106
6107 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
6108 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
6109 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
6110
6111 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
6112 when "ssleay" is still not found.
6113 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6114
6115 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
6116 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
6117
6118 *) Updated the README file.
6119 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6120
6121 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
6122 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
6123 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6124
6125 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
6126 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
6127 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6128
6129 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
6130 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
6131 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
6132 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
6133 o removed obsolete TODO file
6134 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
6135 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6136
6137 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
6138 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
6139 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
6140 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
6141 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
6142 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
6143 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6144
6145 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
6146 [Mark J. Cox]
6147
6148 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
6149 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
6150 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
6151 summer 1998.
6152 [The OpenSSL Project]
6153
6154
6155 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
6156
6157 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
6158 [Eric A. Young]
6159
6160 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
6161 [Eric A. Young]
6162
6163 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
6164 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
6165 [Eric A. Young]
6166
6167 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
6168 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
6169 available).
6170 [Eric A. Young]
6171
6172 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
6173 binary structures
6174 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
6175
6176 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
6177 [Eric A. Young]
6178
6179 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
6180 [Eric A. Young]
6181
6182 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
6183 [Eric A. Young]
6184
6185 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
6186 [Eric A. Young]
6187
6188 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
6189 [Eric A. Young]
6190
6191 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
6192 [Eric A. Young]
6193
6194 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
6195 [Eric A. Young]
6196
6197 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
6198 [Eric A. Young]
6199
6200 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
6201 [Eric A. Young]
6202
6203 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
6204 [Eric A. Young]
6205
6206 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
6207 [Eric A. Young]
6208
6209 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
6210 [Eric A. Young]
6211
6212 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
6213 [Eric A. Young]
6214
6215 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
6216 [Eric A. Young]
6217
6218 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
6219 [Eric A. Young]
6220
6221 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
6222 [Eric A. Young]
6223
6224 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
6225 [Eric A. Young]
6226
6227 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
6228 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
6229 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
6230 [Eric A. Young]
6231
6232 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
6233 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
6234 [Eric A. Young]
6235
6236 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
6237 [Eric A. Young]
6238
6239 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
6240 [Eric A. Young]
6241
6242 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
6243 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
6244 [Eric A. Young]
6245
6246 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
6247 [Eric A. Young]
6248
6249 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
6250 [Eric A. Young]
6251
6252 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
6253 bytes sent in the client random.
6254 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
6255
