5 Changes between 0.9.8f and 0.9.9 [xx XXX xxxx]
6
7 *) s390x assembler pack.
8 [Andy Polyakov]
9
10 *) ARMv4 assembler pack. ARMv4 refers to v4 and later ISA, not CPU
11 "family."
12 [Andy Polyakov]
13
14 *) Implement certificate status request TLS extension defined in RFC3546.
15 A client can set the appropriate parameters and receive the encoded
16 OCSP response via a callback. A server can query the supplied parameters
17 and set the encoded OCSP response in the callback. Add simplified examples
18 to s_client and s_server.
19 [Steve Henson]
20
21 *) Implement Opaque PRF Input TLS extension as specified in
22 draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt. Since this is not an
23 official specification yet and no extension type assignment by
24 IANA exists, this extension (for now) will have to be explicitly
25 enabled when building OpenSSL by providing the extension number
26 to use. For example, specify an option
27
28 -DTLSEXT_TYPE_opaque_prf_input=0x9527
29
30 to the "config" or "Configure" script to enable the extension,
31 assuming extension number 0x9527 (which is a completely arbitrary
32 and unofficial assignment based on the MD5 hash of the Internet
33 Draft). Note that by doing so, you potentially lose
34 interoperability with other TLS implementations since these might
35 be using the same extension number for other purposes.
36
37 SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input(ssl, src, len) is used to set the
38 opaque PRF input value to use in the handshake. This will create
39 an interal copy of the length-'len' string at 'src', and will
40 return non-zero for success.
41
42 To get more control and flexibility, provide a callback function
43 by using
44
45 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback(ctx, cb)
46 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
47
48 where
49
50 int (*cb)(SSL *, void *peerinput, size_t len, void *arg);
51 void *arg;
52
53 Callback function 'cb' will be called in handshakes, and is
54 expected to use SSL_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input() as appropriate.
55 Argument 'arg' is for application purposes (the value as given to
56 SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_opaque_prf_input_callback_arg() will directly
57 be provided to the callback function). The callback function
58 has to return non-zero to report success: usually 1 to use opaque
59 PRF input just if possible, or 2 to enforce use of the opaque PRF
60 input. In the latter case, the library will abort the handshake
61 if opaque PRF input is not successfully negotiated.
62
63 Arguments 'peerinput' and 'len' given to the callback function
64 will always be NULL and 0 in the case of a client. A server will
65 see the client's opaque PRF input through these variables if
66 available (NULL and 0 otherwise). Note that if the server
67 provides an opaque PRF input, the length must be the same as the
68 length of the client's opaque PRF input.
69
70 Note that the callback function will only be called when creating
71 a new session (session resumption can resume whatever was
72 previously negotiated), and will not be called in SSL 2.0
73 handshakes; thus, SSL_CTX_set_options(ctx, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) or
74 SSL_set_options(ssl, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2) is especially recommended
75 for applications that need to enforce opaque PRF input.
76
77 [Bodo Moeller]
78
79 *) Update ssl code to support digests other than SHA1+MD5 for handshake
80 MAC.
81
82 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>]
83
84 *) Add RFC4507 support to OpenSSL. This includes the corrections in
85 RFC4507bis. The encrypted ticket format is an encrypted encoded
86 SSL_SESSION structure, that way new session features are automatically
87 supported.
88
89 If a client application caches session in an SSL_SESSION structure
90 support is transparent because tickets are now stored in the encoded
91 SSL_SESSION.
92
93 The SSL_CTX structure automatically generates keys for ticket
94 protection in servers so again support should be possible
95 with no application modification.
96
97 If a client or server wishes to disable RFC4507 support then the option
98 SSL_OP_NO_TICKET can be set.
99
100 Add a TLS extension debugging callback to allow the contents of any client
101 or server extensions to be examined.
102
103 This work was sponsored by Google.
104 [Steve Henson]
105
106 *) Final changes to avoid use of pointer pointer casts in OpenSSL.
107 OpenSSL should now compile cleanly on gcc 4.2
108 [Peter Hartley <pdh@utter.chaos.org.uk>, Steve Henson]
109
110 *) Update SSL library to use new EVP_PKEY MAC API. Include generic MAC
111 support including streaming MAC support: this is required for GOST
112 ciphersuite support.
113 [Victor B. Wagner <vitus@cryptocom.ru>, Steve Henson]
114
115 *) Add option -stream to use PKCS#7 streaming in smime utility. New
116 function i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() and PEM_write_PKCS7_bio_stream()
117 to output in BER and PEM format.
118 [Steve Henson]
119
120 *) Experimental support for use of HMAC via EVP_PKEY interface. This
121 allows HMAC to be handled via the EVP_DigestSign*() interface. The
122 EVP_PKEY "key" in this case is the HMAC key, potentially allowing
123 ENGINE support for HMAC keys which are unextractable. New -mac and
124 -macopt options to dgst utility.
125 [Steve Henson]
126
127 *) New option -sigopt to dgst utility. Update dgst to use
128 EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify}*. These two changes make it possible to use
129 alternative signing paramaters such as X9.31 or PSS in the dgst
130 utility.
131 [Steve Henson]
132
133 *) Change ssl_cipher_apply_rule(), the internal function that does
134 the work each time a ciphersuite string requests enabling
135 ("foo+bar"), moving ("+foo+bar"), disabling ("-foo+bar", or
136 removing ("!foo+bar") a class of ciphersuites: Now it maintains
137 the order of disabled ciphersuites such that those ciphersuites
138 that most recently went from enabled to disabled not only stay
139 in order with respect to each other, but also have higher priority
140 than other disabled ciphersuites the next time ciphersuites are
141 enabled again.
142
143 This means that you can now say, e.g., "PSK:-PSK:HIGH" to enable
144 the same ciphersuites as with "HIGH" alone, but in a specific
145 order where the PSK ciphersuites come first (since they are the
146 most recently disabled ciphersuites when "HIGH" is parsed).
147
148 Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() (using this new
149 funcionality) such that between otherwise identical
150 cihpersuites, ephemeral ECDH is preferred over ephemeral DH in
151 the default order.
152 [Bodo Moeller]
153
154 *) Change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it automatically
155 arranges the ciphersuites in reasonable order before starting
156 to process the rule string. Thus, the definition for "DEFAULT"
157 (SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST) now is just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL", but
158 remains equivalent to "AES:ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:+aECDH:+kRSA:+RC4:@STRENGTH".
159 This makes it much easier to arrive at a reasonable default order
160 in applications for which anonymous ciphers are OK (meaning
161 that you can't actually use DEFAULT).
162 [Bodo Moeller; suggested by Victor Duchovni]
163
164 *) Split the SSL/TLS algorithm mask (as used for ciphersuite string
165 processing) into multiple integers instead of setting
166 "SSL_MKEY_MASK" bits, "SSL_AUTH_MASK" bits, "SSL_ENC_MASK",
167 "SSL_MAC_MASK", and "SSL_SSL_MASK" bits all in a single integer.
168 (These masks as well as the individual bit definitions are hidden
169 away into the non-exported interface ssl/ssl_locl.h, so this
170 change to the definition of the SSL_CIPHER structure shouldn't
171 affect applications.) This give us more bits for each of these
172 categories, so there is no longer a need to coagulate AES128 and
173 AES256 into a single algorithm bit, and to coagulate Camellia128
174 and Camellia256 into a single algorithm bit, which has led to all
175 kinds of kludges.
176
177 Thus, among other things, the kludge introduced in 0.9.7m and
178 0.9.8e for masking out AES256 independently of AES128 or masking
179 out Camellia256 independently of AES256 is not needed here in 0.9.9.
180
181 With the change, we also introduce new ciphersuite aliases that
182 so far were missing: "AES128", "AES256", "CAMELLIA128", and
183 "CAMELLIA256".
184 [Bodo Moeller]
185
186 *) Add support for dsa-with-SHA224 and dsa-with-SHA256.
187 Use the leftmost N bytes of the signature input if the input is
188 larger than the prime q (with N being the size in bytes of q).
189 [Nils Larsch]
190
191 *) Very *very* experimental PKCS#7 streaming encoder support. Nothing uses
192 it yet and it is largely untested.
193 [Steve Henson]
194
195 *) Add support for the ecdsa-with-SHA224/256/384/512 signature types.
196 [Nils Larsch]
197
198 *) Initial incomplete changes to avoid need for function casts in OpenSSL
199 some compilers (gcc 4.2 and later) reject their use. Safestack is
200 reimplemented. Update ASN1 to avoid use of legacy functions.
201 [Steve Henson]
202
203 *) Win32/64 targets are linked with Winsock2.
204 [Andy Polyakov]
205
206 *) Add an X509_CRL_METHOD structure to allow CRL processing to be redirected
207 to external functions. This can be used to increase CRL handling
208 efficiency especially when CRLs are very large by (for example) storing
209 the CRL revoked certificates in a database.
210 [Steve Henson]
211
212 *) Overhaul of by_dir code. Add support for dynamic loading of CRLs so
213 new CRLs added to a directory can be used. New command line option
214 -verify_return_error to s_client and s_server. This causes real errors
215 to be returned by the verify callback instead of carrying on no matter
216 what. This reflects the way a "real world" verify callback would behave.
217 [Steve Henson]
218
219 *) GOST engine, supporting several GOST algorithms and public key formats.
220 Kindly donated by Cryptocom.
221 [Cryptocom]
222
223 *) Partial support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension. CRLs
224 partitioned by DP are handled but no indirect CRL or reason partitioning
225 (yet). Complete overhaul of CRL handling: now the most suitable CRL is
226 selected via a scoring technique which handles IDP and AKID in CRLs.
227 [Steve Henson]
228
229 *) New X509_STORE_CTX callbacks lookup_crls() and lookup_certs() which
230 will ultimately be used for all verify operations: this will remove the
231 X509_STORE dependency on certificate verification and allow alternative
232 lookup methods. X509_STORE based implementations of these two callbacks.
233 [Steve Henson]
234
235 *) Allow multiple CRLs to exist in an X509_STORE with matching issuer names.
236 Modify get_crl() to find a valid (unexpired) CRL if possible.
237 [Steve Henson]
238
239 *) New function X509_CRL_match() to check if two CRLs are identical. Normally
240 this would be called X509_CRL_cmp() but that name is already used by
241 a function that just compares CRL issuer names. Cache several CRL
242 extensions in X509_CRL structure and cache CRLDP in X509.
243 [Steve Henson]
244
245 *) Store a "canonical" representation of X509_NAME structure (ASN1 Name)
246 this maps equivalent X509_NAME structures into a consistent structure.
247 Name comparison can then be performed rapidly using memcmp().
248 [Steve Henson]
249
250 *) Non-blocking OCSP request processing. Add -timeout option to ocsp
251 utility.
252 [Steve Henson]
253
254 *) Allow digests to supply their own micalg string for S/MIME type using
255 the ctrl EVP_MD_CTRL_MICALG.
256 [Steve Henson]
257
258 *) During PKCS7 signing pass the PKCS7 SignerInfo structure to the
259 EVP_PKEY_METHOD before and after signing via the EVP_PKEY_CTRL_PKCS7_SIGN
260 ctrl. It can then customise the structure before and/or after signing
261 if necessary.
262 [Steve Henson]
263
264 *) New function OBJ_add_sigid() to allow application defined signature OIDs
265 to be added to OpenSSLs internal tables. New function OBJ_sigid_free()
266 to free up any added signature OIDs.
267 [Steve Henson]
268
269 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_do_all(), EVP_CIPHER_do_all_sorted(),
270 EVP_MD_do_all() and EVP_MD_do_all_sorted() to enumerate internal
271 digest and cipher tables. New options added to openssl utility:
272 list-message-digest-algorithms and list-cipher-algorithms.
273 [Steve Henson]
274
275 *) In addition to the numerical (unsigned long) thread ID, provide
276 for a pointer (void *) thread ID. This helps accomodate systems
277 that do not provide an unsigned long thread ID. OpenSSL assumes
278 it is in the same thread iff both the numerical and the pointer
279 thread ID agree; so applications are just required to define one
280 of them appropriately (e.g., by using a pointer to a per-thread
281 memory object malloc()ed by the application for the pointer-type
282 thread ID). Exactly analoguous to the existing functions
283
284 void CRYPTO_set_id_callback(unsigned long (*func)(void));
285 unsigned long (*CRYPTO_get_id_callback(void))(void);
286 unsigned long CRYPTO_thread_id(void);
287
288 we now have additional functions
289
290 void CRYPTO_set_idptr_callback(void *(*func)(void));
291 void *(*CRYPTO_get_idptr_callback(void))(void);
292 void *CRYPTO_thread_idptr(void);
293
294 also in <openssl/crypto.h>. The default value for
295 CRYPTO_thread_idptr() if the application has not provided its own
296 callback is &errno.
297 [Bodo Moeller]
298
299 *) Change the array representation of binary polynomials: the list
300 of degrees of non-zero coefficients is now terminated with -1.
301 Previously it was terminated with 0, which was also part of the
302 value; thus, the array representation was not applicable to
303 polynomials where t^0 has coefficient zero. This change makes
304 the array representation useful in a more general context.
305 [Douglas Stebila]
306
307 *) Various modifications and fixes to SSL/TLS cipher string
308 handling. For ECC, the code now distinguishes between fixed ECDH
309 with RSA certificates on the one hand and with ECDSA certificates
310 on the other hand, since these are separate ciphersuites. The
311 unused code for Fortezza ciphersuites has been removed.
312
313 For consistency with EDH, ephemeral ECDH is now called "EECDH"
314 (not "ECDHE"). For consistency with the code for DH
315 certificates, use of ECDH certificates is now considered ECDH
316 authentication, not RSA or ECDSA authentication (the latter is
317 merely the CA's signing algorithm and not actively used in the
318 protocol).
319
320 The temporary ciphersuite alias "ECCdraft" is no longer
321 available, and ECC ciphersuites are no longer excluded from "ALL"
322 and "DEFAULT". The following aliases now exist for RFC 4492
323 ciphersuites, most of these by analogy with the DH case:
324
325 kECDHr - ECDH cert, signed with RSA
326 kECDHe - ECDH cert, signed with ECDSA
327 kECDH - ECDH cert (signed with either RSA or ECDSA)
328 kEECDH - ephemeral ECDH
329 ECDH - ECDH cert or ephemeral ECDH
330
331 aECDH - ECDH cert
332 aECDSA - ECDSA cert
333 ECDSA - ECDSA cert
334
335 AECDH - anonymous ECDH
336 EECDH - non-anonymous ephemeral ECDH (equivalent to "kEECDH:-AECDH")
337
338 [Bodo Moeller]
339
340 *) Add additional S/MIME capabilities for AES and GOST ciphers if supported.
341 Use correct micalg parameters depending on digest(s) in signed message.
342 [Steve Henson]
343
344 *) Add engine support for EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. Add functions to process
345 an ENGINE asn1 method. Support ENGINE lookups in the ASN1 code.
346 [Steve Henson]
347
348 *) Initial engine support for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. New functions to permit
349 an engine to register a method. Add ENGINE lookups for methods and
350 functional reference processing.
351 [Steve Henson]
352
353 *) New functions EVP_Digest{Sign,Verify)*. These are enchance versions of
354 EVP_{Sign,Verify}* which allow an application to customise the signature
355 process.
356 [Steve Henson]
357
358 *) New -resign option to smime utility. This adds one or more signers
359 to an existing PKCS#7 signedData structure. Also -md option to use an
360 alternative message digest algorithm for signing.
361 [Steve Henson]
362
363 *) Tidy up PKCS#7 routines and add new functions to make it easier to
364 create PKCS7 structures containing multiple signers. Update smime
365 application to support multiple signers.
366 [Steve Henson]
367
368 *) New -macalg option to pkcs12 utility to allow setting of an alternative
369 digest MAC.
370 [Steve Henson]
371
372 *) Initial support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PRFs other than default SHA1 HMAC.
373 Reorganize PBE internals to lookup from a static table using NIDs,
374 add support for HMAC PBE OID translation. Add a EVP_CIPHER ctrl:
375 EVP_CTRL_PBE_PRF_NID this allows a cipher to specify an alternative
376 PRF which will be automatically used with PBES2.
377 [Steve Henson]
378
379 *) Replace the algorithm specific calls to generate keys in "req" with the
380 new API.
381 [Steve Henson]
382
383 *) Update PKCS#7 enveloped data routines to use new API. This is now
384 supported by any public key method supporting the encrypt operation. A
385 ctrl is added to allow the public key algorithm to examine or modify
386 the PKCS#7 RecipientInfo structure if it needs to: for RSA this is
387 a no op.
388 [Steve Henson]
389
390 *) Add a ctrl to asn1 method to allow a public key algorithm to express
391 a default digest type to use. In most cases this will be SHA1 but some
392 algorithms (such as GOST) need to specify an alternative digest. The
393 return value indicates how strong the prefernce is 1 means optional and
394 2 is mandatory (that is it is the only supported type). Modify
395 ASN1_item_sign() to accept a NULL digest argument to indicate it should
396 use the default md. Update openssl utilities to use the default digest
397 type for signing if it is not explicitly indicated.
398 [Steve Henson]
399
400 *) Use OID cross reference table in ASN1_sign() and ASN1_verify(). New
401 EVP_MD flag EVP_MD_FLAG_PKEY_METHOD_SIGNATURE. This uses the relevant
402 signing method from the key type. This effectively removes the link
403 between digests and public key types.
404 [Steve Henson]
405
406 *) Add an OID cross reference table and utility functions. Its purpose is to
407 translate between signature OIDs such as SHA1WithrsaEncryption and SHA1,
408 rsaEncryption. This will allow some of the algorithm specific hackery
409 needed to use the correct OID to be removed.
410 [Steve Henson]
411
412 *) Remove algorithm specific dependencies when setting PKCS7_SIGNER_INFO
413 structures for PKCS7_sign(). They are now set up by the relevant public
414 key ASN1 method.
415 [Steve Henson]
416
417 *) Add provisional EC pkey method with support for ECDSA and ECDH.
418 [Steve Henson]
419
420 *) Add support for key derivation (agreement) in the API, DH method and
421 pkeyutl.
422 [Steve Henson]
423
424 *) Add DSA pkey method and DH pkey methods, extend DH ASN1 method to support
425 public and private key formats. As a side effect these add additional
426 command line functionality not previously available: DSA signatures can be
427 generated and verified using pkeyutl and DH key support and generation in
428 pkey, genpkey.
429 [Steve Henson]
430
431 *) BeOS support.
432 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
433
434 *) New make target "install_html_docs" installs HTML renditions of the
435 manual pages.
436 [Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>]
437
438 *) New utility "genpkey" this is analagous to "genrsa" etc except it can
439 generate keys for any algorithm. Extend and update EVP_PKEY_METHOD to
440 support key and parameter generation and add initial key generation
441 functionality for RSA.
442 [Steve Henson]
443
444 *) Add functions for main EVP_PKEY_method operations. The undocumented
445 functions EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt} have been renamed to
446 EVP_PKEY_{encrypt,decrypt}_old.
447 [Steve Henson]
448
449 *) Initial definitions for EVP_PKEY_METHOD. This will be a high level public
450 key API, doesn't do much yet.
451 [Steve Henson]
452
453 *) New function EVP_PKEY_asn1_get0_info() to retrieve information about
454 public key algorithms. New option to openssl utility:
455 "list-public-key-algorithms" to print out info.
456 [Steve Henson]
457
458 *) Implement the Supported Elliptic Curves Extension for
459 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
460 [Douglas Stebila]
461
462 *) Don't free up OIDs in OBJ_cleanup() if they are in use by EVP_MD or
463 EVP_CIPHER structures to avoid later problems in EVP_cleanup().
464 [Steve Henson]
465
466 *) New utilities pkey and pkeyparam. These are similar to algorithm specific
467 utilities such as rsa, dsa, dsaparam etc except they process any key
468 type.
469 [Steve Henson]
470
471 *) Transfer public key printing routines to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD. New
472 functions EVP_PKEY_print_public(), EVP_PKEY_print_private(),
473 EVP_PKEY_print_param() to print public key data from an EVP_PKEY
474 structure.
475 [Steve Henson]
476
477 *) Initial support for pluggable public key ASN1.
478 De-spaghettify the public key ASN1 handling. Move public and private
479 key ASN1 handling to a new EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD structure. Relocate
480 algorithm specific handling to a single module within the relevant
481 algorithm directory. Add functions to allow (near) opaque processing
482 of public and private key structures.
483 [Steve Henson]
484
485 *) Implement the Supported Point Formats Extension for
486 ECC ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt.
487 [Douglas Stebila]
488
489 *) Add initial support for RFC 4279 PSK TLS ciphersuites. Add members
490 for the psk identity [hint] and the psk callback functions to the
491 SSL_SESSION, SSL and SSL_CTX structure.
492
493 New ciphersuites:
494 PSK-RC4-SHA, PSK-3DES-EDE-CBC-SHA, PSK-AES128-CBC-SHA,
495 PSK-AES256-CBC-SHA
496
497 New functions:
498 SSL_CTX_use_psk_identity_hint
499 SSL_get_psk_identity_hint
500 SSL_get_psk_identity
501 SSL_use_psk_identity_hint
502
503 [Mika Kousa and Pasi Eronen of Nokia Corporation]
504
505 *) Add RFC 3161 compliant time stamp request creation, response generation
506 and response verification functionality.
507 [Zoltán Glózik <zglozik@opentsa.org>, The OpenTSA Project]
508
509 *) Add initial support for TLS extensions, specifically for the server_name
510 extension so far. The SSL_SESSION, SSL_CTX, and SSL data structures now
511 have new members for a host name. The SSL data structure has an
512 additional member SSL_CTX *initial_ctx so that new sessions can be
513 stored in that context to allow for session resumption, even after the
514 SSL has been switched to a new SSL_CTX in reaction to a client's
515 server_name extension.
516
517 New functions (subject to change):
518
519 SSL_get_servername()
520 SSL_get_servername_type()
521 SSL_set_SSL_CTX()
522
523 New CTRL codes and macros (subject to change):
524
525 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_CB
526 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_callback()
527 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_SERVERNAME_ARG
528 - SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_servername_arg()
529 SSL_CTRL_SET_TLSEXT_HOSTNAME - SSL_set_tlsext_host_name()
530
531 openssl s_client has a new '-servername ...' option.
532
533 openssl s_server has new options '-servername_host ...', '-cert2 ...',
534 '-key2 ...', '-servername_fatal' (subject to change). This allows
535 testing the HostName extension for a specific single host name ('-cert'
536 and '-key' remain fallbacks for handshakes without HostName
537 negotiation). If the unrecogninzed_name alert has to be sent, this by
538 default is a warning; it becomes fatal with the '-servername_fatal'
539 option.
540
541 [Peter Sylvester, Remy Allais, Christophe Renou]
542
543 *) Whirlpool hash implementation is added.
544 [Andy Polyakov]
545
546 *) BIGNUM code on 64-bit SPARCv9 targets is switched from bn(64,64) to
547 bn(64,32). Because of instruction set limitations it doesn't have
548 any negative impact on performance. This was done mostly in order
549 to make it possible to share assembler modules, such as bn_mul_mont
550 implementations, between 32- and 64-bit builds without hassle.
551 [Andy Polyakov]
552
553 *) Move code previously exiled into file crypto/ec/ec2_smpt.c
554 to ec2_smpl.c, and no longer require the OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP
555 macro.
556 [Bodo Moeller]
557
558 *) New candidate for BIGNUM assembler implementation, bn_mul_mont,
559 dedicated Montgomery multiplication procedure, is introduced.
560 BN_MONT_CTX is modified to allow bn_mul_mont to reach for higher
561 "64-bit" performance on certain 32-bit targets.
562 [Andy Polyakov]
563
564 *) New option SSL_OP_NO_COMP to disable use of compression selectively
565 in SSL structures. New SSL ctrl to set maximum send fragment size.
566 Save memory by seeting the I/O buffer sizes dynamically instead of
567 using the maximum available value.
568 [Steve Henson]
569
570 *) New option -V for 'openssl ciphers'. This prints the ciphersuite code
571 in addition to the text details.
572 [Bodo Moeller]
573
574 *) Very, very preliminary EXPERIMENTAL support for printing of general
575 ASN1 structures. This currently produces rather ugly output and doesn't
576 handle several customised structures at all.
577 [Steve Henson]
578
579 *) Integrated support for PVK file format and some related formats such
580 as MS PUBLICKEYBLOB and PRIVATEKEYBLOB. Command line switches to support
581 these in the 'rsa' and 'dsa' utilities.
582 [Steve Henson]
583
584 *) Support for PKCS#1 RSAPublicKey format on rsa utility command line.
585 [Steve Henson]
586
587 *) Remove the ancient ASN1_METHOD code. This was only ever used in one
588 place for the (very old) "NETSCAPE" format certificates which are now
589 handled using new ASN1 code equivalents.
590 [Steve Henson]
591
592 *) Let the TLSv1_method() etc. functions return a 'const' SSL_METHOD
593 pointer and make the SSL_METHOD parameter in SSL_CTX_new,
594 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version and SSL_set_ssl_method 'const'.
595 [Nils Larsch]
596
597 *) Modify CRL distribution points extension code to print out previously
598 unsupported fields. Enhance extension setting code to allow setting of
599 all fields.
600 [Steve Henson]
601
602 *) Add print and set support for Issuing Distribution Point CRL extension.
603 [Steve Henson]
604
605 *) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
606 [NTT]
607
608 Changes between 0.9.8e and 0.9.8f [xx XXX xxxx]
609
610 *) Mitigate attack on final subtraction in Montgomery reduction.
611 [Andy Polyakov]
612
613 *) Fix crypto/ec/ec_mult.c to work properly with scalars of value 0
614 (which previously caused an internal error).
615 [Bodo Moeller]
616
617 *) Squeeze another 10% out of IGE mode when in != out.
618 [Ben Laurie]
619
620 *) AES IGE mode speedup.
621 [Dean Gaudet (Google)]
622
623 *) Add the Korean symmetric 128-bit cipher SEED (see
624 http://www.kisa.or.kr/kisa/seed/jsp/seed_eng.jsp) and
625 add SEED ciphersuites from RFC 4162:
626
627 TLS_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "SEED-SHA"
628 TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-DSS-SEED-SHA"
629 TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "DHE-RSA-SEED-SHA"
630 TLS_DH_anon_WITH_SEED_CBC_SHA = "ADH-SEED-SHA"
631
632 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
633 series, SEED remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
634 is configured with 'enable-seed'.
635 [KISA, Bodo Moeller]
636
637 *) Mitigate branch prediction attacks, which can be practical if a
638 single processor is shared, allowing a spy process to extract
639 information. For detailed background information, see
640 http://eprint.iacr.org/2007/039 (O. Aciicmez, S. Gueron,
641 J.-P. Seifert, "New Branch Prediction Vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
642 and Necessary Software Countermeasures"). The core of the change
643 are new versions BN_div_no_branch() and
644 BN_mod_inverse_no_branch() of BN_div() and BN_mod_inverse(),
645 respectively, which are slower, but avoid the security-relevant
646 conditional branches. These are automatically called by BN_div()
647 and BN_mod_inverse() if the flag BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is set for one
648 of the input BIGNUMs. Also, BN_is_bit_set() has been changed to
649 remove a conditional branch.
650
651 BN_FLG_CONSTTIME is the new name for the previous
652 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME flag, since it now affects more than just
653 modular exponentiation. (Since OpenSSL 0.9.7h, setting this flag
654 in the exponent causes BN_mod_exp_mont() to use the alternative
655 implementation in BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime().) The old name
656 remains as a deprecated alias.
657
658 Similary, RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is replaced by a more general
659 RSA_FLAG_NO_CONSTTIME flag since the RSA implementation now uses
660 constant-time implementations for more than just exponentiation.
661 Here too the old name is kept as a deprecated alias.
662
663 BN_BLINDING_new() will now use BN_dup() for the modulus so that
664 the BN_BLINDING structure gets an independent copy of the
665 modulus. This means that the previous "BIGNUM *m" argument to
666 BN_BLINDING_new() and to BN_BLINDING_create_param() now
667 essentially becomes "const BIGNUM *m", although we can't actually
668 change this in the header file before 0.9.9. It allows
669 RSA_setup_blinding() to use BN_with_flags() on the modulus to
670 enable BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.
671
672 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp)]
673
674 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
675 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
676 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
677 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
678 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
679 with applications using a single external cache for quite
680 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
681 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
682 in a different context.
683 [Bodo Moeller]
684
685 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
686 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
687 authentication-only ciphersuites.
688 [Bodo Moeller]
689
690 Changes between 0.9.8d and 0.9.8e [23 Feb 2007]
691
692 *) Since AES128 and AES256 (and similarly Camellia128 and
693 Camellia256) share a single mask bit in the logic of
694 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
695 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't
696 (or if Camellia128 is available and Camellia256 isn't).
697 [Victor Duchovni]
698
699 *) Fix the BIT STRING encoding generated by crypto/ec/ec_asn1.c
700 (within i2d_ECPrivateKey, i2d_ECPKParameters, i2d_ECParameters):
701 When a point or a seed is encoded in a BIT STRING, we need to
702 prevent the removal of trailing zero bits to get the proper DER
703 encoding. (By default, crypto/asn1/a_bitstr.c assumes the case
704 of a NamedBitList, for which trailing 0 bits need to be removed.)
705 [Bodo Moeller]
706
707 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
708 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
709 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
710 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
711 message has informed the client about his choice.)
712 [Bodo Moeller]
713
714 *) Add RFC 3779 support.
715 [Rob Austein for ARIN, Ben Laurie]
716
717 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
718 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
719 Improve header file function name parsing.
720 [Steve Henson]
721
722 *) extend SMTP and IMAP protocol emulation in s_client to use EHLO
723 or CAPABILITY handshake as required by RFCs.
724 [Goetz Babin-Ebell]
725
726 Changes between 0.9.8c and 0.9.8d [28 Sep 2006]
727
728 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
729 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
730 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
731
732 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
733 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
734
735 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
736 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
737
738 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
739 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
740 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
741
742 *) Since 0.9.8b, ciphersuite strings naming explicit ciphersuites
743 match only those. Before that, "AES256-SHA" would be interpreted
744 as a pattern and match "AES128-SHA" too (since AES128-SHA got
745 the same strength classification in 0.9.7h) as we currently only
746 have a single AES bit in the ciphersuite description bitmap.
747 That change, however, also applied to ciphersuite strings such as
748 "RC4-MD5" that intentionally matched multiple ciphersuites --
749 namely, SSL 2.0 ciphersuites in addition to the more common ones
750 from SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0.
751
752 So we change the selection algorithm again: Naming an explicit
753 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite, and any other similar
754 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions.
755 Thus, "RC4-MD5" again will properly select both the SSL 2.0
756 ciphersuite and the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite.
757
758 Since SSL 2.0 does not have any ciphersuites for which the
759 128/256 bit distinction would be relevant, this works for now.
760 The proper fix will be to use different bits for AES128 and
761 AES256, which would have avoided the problems from the beginning;
762 however, bits are scarce, so we can only do this in a new release
763 (not just a patchlevel) when we can change the SSL_CIPHER
764 definition to split the single 'unsigned long mask' bitmap into
765 multiple values to extend the available space.
766
767 [Bodo Moeller]
768
769 Changes between 0.9.8b and 0.9.8c [05 Sep 2006]
770
771 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
772 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
773
774 *) Add AES IGE and biIGE modes.
775 [Ben Laurie]
776
777 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
778 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
779 undesirable limitations.
780 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
781
782 *) Disable "ECCdraft" ciphersuites more thoroughly. Now special
783 treatment in ssl/ssl_ciph.s makes sure that these ciphersuites
784 cannot be implicitly activated as part of, e.g., the "AES" alias.
785 However, please upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.9[-dev] for
786 non-experimental use of the ECC ciphersuites to get TLS extension
787 support, which is required for curve and point format negotiation
788 to avoid potential handshake problems.
789 [Bodo Moeller]
790
791 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
792
793 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
794 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
795 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
796
797 The latter two were purportedly from
798 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
799 appear there.
800
801 Also deactivate the remaining ciphersuites from
802 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
803 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
804 [Bodo Moeller]
805
806 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
807 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
808 [Bodo Moeller]
809
810 *) Add the symmetric cipher Camellia (128-bit, 192-bit, 256-bit key
811 versions), which is now available for royalty-free use
812 (see http://info.isl.ntt.co.jp/crypt/eng/info/chiteki.html).
813 Also, add Camellia TLS ciphersuites from RFC 4132.
814
815 To minimize changes between patchlevels in the OpenSSL 0.9.8
816 series, Camellia remains excluded from compilation unless OpenSSL
817 is configured with 'enable-camellia'.
818 [NTT]
819
820 *) Disable the padding bug check when compression is in use. The padding
821 bug check assumes the first packet is of even length, this is not
822 necessarily true if compresssion is enabled and can result in false
823 positives causing handshake failure. The actual bug test is ancient
824 code so it is hoped that implementations will either have fixed it by
825 now or any which still have the bug do not support compression.
826 [Steve Henson]
827
828 Changes between 0.9.8a and 0.9.8b [04 May 2006]
829
830 *) When applying a cipher rule check to see if string match is an explicit
831 cipher suite and only match that one cipher suite if it is.
832 [Steve Henson]
833
834 *) Link in manifests for VC++ if needed.
835 [Austin Ziegler <halostatue@gmail.com>]
836
837 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
838 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-12.txt with proposed changes (but without
839 TLS extensions, which are supported starting with the 0.9.9
840 branch, not in the OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch).
841 [Douglas Stebila]
842
843 *) New functions EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() to support
844 opaque EVP_CIPHER_CTX handling.
845 [Steve Henson]
846
847 *) Fixes and enhancements to zlib compression code. We now only use
848 "zlib1.dll" and use the default __cdecl calling convention on Win32
849 to conform with the standards mentioned here:
850 http://www.zlib.net/DLL_FAQ.txt
851 Static zlib linking now works on Windows and the new --with-zlib-include
852 --with-zlib-lib options to Configure can be used to supply the location
853 of the headers and library. Gracefully handle case where zlib library
854 can't be loaded.
855 [Steve Henson]
856
857 *) Several fixes and enhancements to the OID generation code. The old code
858 sometimes allowed invalid OIDs (1.X for X >= 40 for example), couldn't
859 handle numbers larger than ULONG_MAX, truncated printing and had a
860 non standard OBJ_obj2txt() behaviour.
861 [Steve Henson]
862
863 *) Add support for building of engines under engine/ as shared libraries
864 under VC++ build system.
865 [Steve Henson]
866
867 *) Corrected the numerous bugs in the Win32 path splitter in DSO.
868 Hopefully, we will not see any false combination of paths any more.
869 [Richard Levitte]
870
871 Changes between 0.9.8 and 0.9.8a [11 Oct 2005]
872
873 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
874 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
875 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
876 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
877 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
878
879 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
880 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
881 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
882
883 *) Add two function to clear and return the verify parameter flags.
884 [Steve Henson]
885
886 *) Keep cipherlists sorted in the source instead of sorting them at
887 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
888 [Nils Larsch]
889
890 *) Avoid some small subgroup attacks in Diffie-Hellman.
891 [Nick Mathewson and Ben Laurie]
892
893 *) Add functions for well-known primes.
894 [Nick Mathewson]
895
896 *) Extended Windows CE support.
897 [Satoshi Nakamura and Andy Polyakov]
898
899 *) Initialize SSL_METHOD structures at compile time instead of during
900 runtime, thus removing the need for a lock.
901 [Steve Henson]
902
903 *) Make PKCS7_decrypt() work even if no certificate is supplied by
904 attempting to decrypt each encrypted key in turn. Add support to
905 smime utility.
906 [Steve Henson]
907
908 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.8 [05 Jul 2005]
909
910 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7i and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
911 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
912
913 *) Add libcrypto.pc and libssl.pc for those who feel they need them.
914 [Richard Levitte]
915
916 *) Change CA.sh and CA.pl so they don't bundle the CSR and the private
917 key into the same file any more.
918 [Richard Levitte]
919
920 *) Add initial support for Win64, both IA64 and AMD64/x64 flavors.
921 [Andy Polyakov]
922
923 *) Add -utf8 command line and config file option to 'ca'.
924 [Stefan <stf@udoma.org]
925
926 *) Removed the macro des_crypt(), as it seems to conflict with some
927 libraries. Use DES_crypt().
928 [Richard Levitte]
929
930 *) Correct naming of the 'chil' and '4758cca' ENGINEs. This
931 involves renaming the source and generated shared-libs for
932 both. The engines will accept the corrected or legacy ids
933 ('ncipher' and '4758_cca' respectively) when binding. NB,
934 this only applies when building 'shared'.
935 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Geoff Thorpe]
936
937 *) Add attribute functions to EVP_PKEY structure. Modify
938 PKCS12_create() to recognize a CSP name attribute and
939 use it. Make -CSP option work again in pkcs12 utility.
940 [Steve Henson]
941
942 *) Add new functionality to the bn blinding code:
943 - automatic re-creation of the BN_BLINDING parameters after
944 a fixed number of uses (currently 32)
945 - add new function for parameter creation
946 - introduce flags to control the update behaviour of the
947 BN_BLINDING parameters
948 - hide BN_BLINDING structure
949 Add a second BN_BLINDING slot to the RSA structure to improve
950 performance when a single RSA object is shared among several
951 threads.
952 [Nils Larsch]
953
954 *) Add support for DTLS.
955 [Nagendra Modadugu <nagendra@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
956
957 *) Add support for DER encoded private keys (SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1)
958 to SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file() and SSL_use_PrivateKey_file()
959 [Walter Goulet]
960
961 *) Remove buggy and incompletet DH cert support from
962 ssl/ssl_rsa.c and ssl/s3_both.c
963 [Nils Larsch]
964
965 *) Use SHA-1 instead of MD5 as the default digest algorithm for
966 the apps/openssl applications.
967 [Nils Larsch]
968
969 *) Compile clean with "-Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
970 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Werror". Currently
971 DEBUG_SAFESTACK must also be set.
972 [Ben Laurie]
973
974 *) Change ./Configure so that certain algorithms can be disabled by default.
975 The new counterpiece to "no-xxx" is "enable-xxx".
976
977 The patented RC5 and MDC2 algorithms will now be disabled unless
978 "enable-rc5" and "enable-mdc2", respectively, are specified.
979
980 (IDEA remains enabled despite being patented. This is because IDEA
981 is frequently required for interoperability, and there is no license
982 fee for non-commercial use. As before, "no-idea" can be used to
983 avoid this algorithm.)
984
985 [Bodo Moeller]
986
987 *) Add processing of proxy certificates (see RFC 3820). This work was
988 sponsored by KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm) and
989 EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-science in Europe).
990 [Richard Levitte]
991
992 *) RC4 performance overhaul on modern architectures/implementations, such
993 as Intel P4, IA-64 and AMD64.
994 [Andy Polyakov]
995
996 *) New utility extract-section.pl. This can be used specify an alternative
997 section number in a pod file instead of having to treat each file as
998 a separate case in Makefile. This can be done by adding two lines to the
999 pod file:
1000
1001 =for comment openssl_section:XXX
1002
1003 The blank line is mandatory.
1004
1005 [Steve Henson]
1006
1007 *) New arguments -certform, -keyform and -pass for s_client and s_server
1008 to allow alternative format key and certificate files and passphrase
1009 sources.
1010 [Steve Henson]
1011
1012 *) New structure X509_VERIFY_PARAM which combines current verify parameters,
1013 update associated structures and add various utility functions.
1014
1015 Add new policy related verify parameters, include policy checking in
1016 standard verify code. Enhance 'smime' application with extra parameters
1017 to support policy checking and print out.
1018 [Steve Henson]
1019
1020 *) Add a new engine to support VIA PadLock ACE extensions in the VIA C3
1021 Nehemiah processors. These extensions support AES encryption in hardware
1022 as well as RNG (though RNG support is currently disabled).
1023 [Michal Ludvig <michal@logix.cz>, with help from Andy Polyakov]
1024
1025 *) Deprecate BN_[get|set]_params() functions (they were ignored internally).
1026 [Geoff Thorpe]
1027
1028 *) New FIPS 180-2 algorithms, SHA-224/-256/-384/-512 are implemented.
1029 [Andy Polyakov and a number of other people]
1030
1031 *) Improved PowerPC platform support. Most notably BIGNUM assembler
1032 implementation contributed by IBM.
1033 [Suresh Chari, Peter Waltenberg, Andy Polyakov]
1034
1035 *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public
1036 exponent rather than 'unsigned long'. There is a corresponding change to
1037 the new 'rsa_keygen' element of the RSA_METHOD structure.
1038 [Jelte Jansen, Geoff Thorpe]
1039
1040 *) Functionality for creating the initial serial number file is now
1041 moved from CA.pl to the 'ca' utility with a new option -create_serial.
1042
1043 (Before OpenSSL 0.9.7e, CA.pl used to initialize the serial
1044 number file to 1, which is bound to cause problems. To avoid
1045 the problems while respecting compatibility between different 0.9.7
1046 patchlevels, 0.9.7e employed 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in
1047 CA.pl for serial number initialization. With the new release 0.9.8,
1048 we can fix the problem directly in the 'ca' utility.)
1049 [Steve Henson]
1050
1051 *) Reduced header interdepencies by declaring more opaque objects in
1052 ossl_typ.h. As a consequence, including some headers (eg. engine.h) will
1053 give fewer recursive includes, which could break lazy source code - so
1054 this change is covered by the OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol. As always,
1055 developers should define this symbol when building and using openssl to
1056 ensure they track the recommended behaviour, interfaces, [etc], but
1057 backwards-compatible behaviour prevails when this isn't defined.
1058 [Geoff Thorpe]
1059
1060 *) New function X509_POLICY_NODE_print() which prints out policy nodes.
1061 [Steve Henson]
1062
1063 *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
1064 This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the
1065 cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
1066 routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and
1067 3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
1068 code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
1069 Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not
1070 valid (weak or incorrect parity).
1071 [Steve Henson]
1072
1073 *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
1074 as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
1075 CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
1076 present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
1077 [Steve Henson]
1078
1079 *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
1080 syntax:
1081
1082 shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
1083 [Steve Henson]
1084
1085 *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
1086 limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
1087 "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
1088 information can now expand as required, and rather than having a single
1089 static array of bignums, BN_CTX now uses a linked-list of such arrays
1090 allowing it to expand on demand whilst maintaining the usefulness of
1091 BN_CTX's "bundling".
1092 [Geoff Thorpe]
1093
1094 *) Add a missing BN_CTX parameter to the 'rsa_mod_exp' callback in RSA_METHOD
1095 to allow all RSA operations to function using a single BN_CTX.
1096 [Geoff Thorpe]
1097
1098 *) Preliminary support for certificate policy evaluation and checking. This
1099 is initially intended to pass the tests outlined in "Conformance Testing
1100 of Relying Party Client Certificate Path Processing Logic" v1.07.
1101 [Steve Henson]
1102
1103 *) bn_dup_expand() has been deprecated, it was introduced in 0.9.7 and
1104 remained unused and not that useful. A variety of other little bignum
1105 tweaks and fixes have also been made continuing on from the audit (see
1106 below).
1107 [Geoff Thorpe]
1108
1109 *) Constify all or almost all d2i, c2i, s2i and r2i functions, along with
1110 associated ASN1, EVP and SSL functions and old ASN1 macros.
1111 [Richard Levitte]
1112
1113 *) BN_zero() only needs to set 'top' and 'neg' to zero for correct results,
1114 and this should never fail. So the return value from the use of
1115 BN_set_word() (which can fail due to needless expansion) is now deprecated;
1116 if OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, BN_zero() is a void macro.
1117 [Geoff Thorpe]
1118
1119 *) BN_CTX_get() should return zero-valued bignums, providing the same
1120 initialised value as BN_new().
1121 [Geoff Thorpe, suggested by Ulf Möller]
1122
1123 *) Support for inhibitAnyPolicy certificate extension.
1124 [Steve Henson]
1125
1126 *) An audit of the BIGNUM code is underway, for which debugging code is
1127 enabled when BN_DEBUG is defined. This makes stricter enforcements on what
1128 is considered valid when processing BIGNUMs, and causes execution to
1129 assert() when a problem is discovered. If BN_DEBUG_RAND is defined,
1130 further steps are taken to deliberately pollute unused data in BIGNUM
1131 structures to try and expose faulty code further on. For now, openssl will
1132 (in its default mode of operation) continue to tolerate the inconsistent
1133 forms that it has tolerated in the past, but authors and packagers should
1134 consider trying openssl and their own applications when compiled with
1135 these debugging symbols defined. It will help highlight potential bugs in
1136 their own code, and will improve the test coverage for OpenSSL itself. At
1137 some point, these tighter rules will become openssl's default to improve
1138 maintainability, though the assert()s and other overheads will remain only
1139 in debugging configurations. See bn.h for more details.
1140 [Geoff Thorpe, Nils Larsch, Ulf Möller]
1141
1142 *) BN_CTX_init() has been deprecated, as BN_CTX is an opaque structure
1143 that can only be obtained through BN_CTX_new() (which implicitly
1144 initialises it). The presence of this function only made it possible
1145 to overwrite an existing structure (and cause memory leaks).
1146 [Geoff Thorpe]
1147
1148 *) Because of the callback-based approach for implementing LHASH as a
1149 template type, lh_insert() adds opaque objects to hash-tables and
1150 lh_doall() or lh_doall_arg() are typically used with a destructor callback
1151 to clean up those corresponding objects before destroying the hash table
1152 (and losing the object pointers). So some over-zealous constifications in
1153 LHASH have been relaxed so that lh_insert() does not take (nor store) the
1154 objects as "const" and the lh_doall[_arg] callback wrappers are not
1155 prototyped to have "const" restrictions on the object pointers they are
1156 given (and so aren't required to cast them away any more).
1157 [Geoff Thorpe]
1158
1159 *) The tmdiff.h API was so ugly and minimal that our own timing utility
1160 (speed) prefers to use its own implementation. The two implementations
1161 haven't been consolidated as yet (volunteers?) but the tmdiff API has had
1162 its object type properly exposed (MS_TM) instead of casting to/from "char
1163 *". This may still change yet if someone realises MS_TM and "ms_time_***"
1164 aren't necessarily the greatest nomenclatures - but this is what was used
1165 internally to the implementation so I've used that for now.
1166 [Geoff Thorpe]
1167
1168 *) Ensure that deprecated functions do not get compiled when
1169 OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined. Some "openssl" subcommands and a few of
1170 the self-tests were still using deprecated key-generation functions so
1171 these have been updated also.
1172 [Geoff Thorpe]
1173
1174 *) Reorganise PKCS#7 code to separate the digest location functionality
1175 into PKCS7_find_digest(), digest addtion into PKCS7_bio_add_digest().
1176 New function PKCS7_set_digest() to set the digest type for PKCS#7
1177 digestedData type. Add additional code to correctly generate the
1178 digestedData type and add support for this type in PKCS7 initialization
1179 functions.
1180 [Steve Henson]
1181
1182 *) New function PKCS7_set0_type_other() this initializes a PKCS7
1183 structure of type "other".
1184 [Steve Henson]
1185
1186 *) Fix prime generation loop in crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl by making
1187 sure the loop does correctly stop and breaking ("division by zero")
1188 modulus operations are not performed. The (pre-generated) prime
1189 table crypto/bn/bn_prime.h was already correct, but it could not be
1190 re-generated on some platforms because of the "division by zero"
1191 situation in the script.
1192 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
1193
1194 *) Update support for ECC-based TLS ciphersuites according to
1195 draft-ietf-tls-ecc-03.txt: the KDF1 key derivation function with
1196 SHA-1 now is only used for "small" curves (where the
1197 representation of a field element takes up to 24 bytes); for
1198 larger curves, the field element resulting from ECDH is directly
1199 used as premaster secret.
1200 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1201
1202 *) Add code for kP+lQ timings to crypto/ec/ectest.c, and add SEC2
1203 curve secp160r1 to the tests.
1204 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1205
1206 *) Add the possibility to load symbols globally with DSO.
1207 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babin-ebell@trustcenter.de> via Richard Levitte]
1208
1209 *) Add the functions ERR_set_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark() for better
1210 control of the error stack.
1211 [Richard Levitte]
1212
1213 *) Add support for STORE in ENGINE.
1214 [Richard Levitte]
1215
1216 *) Add the STORE type. The intention is to provide a common interface
1217 to certificate and key stores, be they simple file-based stores, or
1218 HSM-type store, or LDAP stores, or...
1219 NOTE: The code is currently UNTESTED and isn't really used anywhere.
1220 [Richard Levitte]
1221
1222 *) Add a generic structure called OPENSSL_ITEM. This can be used to
1223 pass a list of arguments to any function as well as provide a way
1224 for a function to pass data back to the caller.
1225 [Richard Levitte]
1226
1227 *) Add the functions BUF_strndup() and BUF_memdup(). BUF_strndup()
1228 works like BUF_strdup() but can be used to duplicate a portion of
1229 a string. The copy gets NUL-terminated. BUF_memdup() duplicates
1230 a memory area.
1231 [Richard Levitte]
1232
1233 *) Add the function sk_find_ex() which works like sk_find(), but will
1234 return an index to an element even if an exact match couldn't be
1235 found. The index is guaranteed to point at the element where the
1236 searched-for key would be inserted to preserve sorting order.
1237 [Richard Levitte]
1238
1239 *) Add the function OBJ_bsearch_ex() which works like OBJ_bsearch() but
1240 takes an extra flags argument for optional functionality. Currently,
1241 the following flags are defined:
1242
1243 OBJ_BSEARCH_VALUE_ON_NOMATCH
1244 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1245 element where the comparing function returns a negative or zero
1246 number.
1247
1248 OBJ_BSEARCH_FIRST_VALUE_ON_MATCH
1249 This one gets OBJ_bsearch_ex() to return a pointer to the first
1250 element where the comparing function returns zero. This is useful
1251 if there are more than one element where the comparing function
1252 returns zero.
1253 [Richard Levitte]
1254
1255 *) Make it possible to create self-signed certificates with 'openssl ca'
1256 in such a way that the self-signed certificate becomes part of the
1257 CA database and uses the same mechanisms for serial number generation
1258 as all other certificate signing. The new flag '-selfsign' enables
1259 this functionality. Adapt CA.sh and CA.pl.in.
1260 [Richard Levitte]
1261
1262 *) Add functionality to check the public key of a certificate request
1263 against a given private. This is useful to check that a certificate
1264 request can be signed by that key (self-signing).
1265 [Richard Levitte]
1266
1267 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
1268 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
1269 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
1270 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
1271 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
1272 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
1273 [Richard Levitte]
1274
1275 *) Generate muti valued AVAs using '+' notation in config files for
1276 req and dirName.
1277 [Steve Henson]
1278
1279 *) Support for nameConstraints certificate extension.
1280 [Steve Henson]
1281
1282 *) Support for policyConstraints certificate extension.
1283 [Steve Henson]
1284
1285 *) Support for policyMappings certificate extension.
1286 [Steve Henson]
1287
1288 *) Make sure the default DSA_METHOD implementation only uses its
1289 dsa_mod_exp() and/or bn_mod_exp() handlers if they are non-NULL,
1290 and change its own handlers to be NULL so as to remove unnecessary
1291 indirection. This lets alternative implementations fallback to the
1292 default implementation more easily.
1293 [Geoff Thorpe]
1294
1295 *) Support for directoryName in GeneralName related extensions
1296 in config files.
1297 [Steve Henson]
1298
1299 *) Make it possible to link applications using Makefile.shared.
1300 Make that possible even when linking against static libraries!
1301 [Richard Levitte]
1302
1303 *) Support for single pass processing for S/MIME signing. This now
1304 means that S/MIME signing can be done from a pipe, in addition
1305 cleartext signing (multipart/signed type) is effectively streaming
1306 and the signed data does not need to be all held in memory.
1307
1308 This is done with a new flag PKCS7_STREAM. When this flag is set
1309 PKCS7_sign() only initializes the PKCS7 structure and the actual signing
1310 is done after the data is output (and digests calculated) in
1311 SMIME_write_PKCS7().
1312 [Steve Henson]
1313
1314 *) Add full support for -rpath/-R, both in shared libraries and
1315 applications, at least on the platforms where it's known how
1316 to do it.
1317 [Richard Levitte]
1318
1319 *) In crypto/ec/ec_mult.c, implement fast point multiplication with
1320 precomputation, based on wNAF splitting: EC_GROUP_precompute_mult()
1321 will now compute a table of multiples of the generator that
1322 makes subsequent invocations of EC_POINTs_mul() or EC_POINT_mul()
1323 faster (notably in the case of a single point multiplication,
1324 scalar * generator).
1325 [Nils Larsch, Bodo Moeller]
1326
1327 *) IPv6 support for certificate extensions. The various extensions
1328 which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the
1329 formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed
1330 correctly.
1331 [Steve Henson]
1332
1333 *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
1334 exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
1335 GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
1336 cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up.
1337 However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
1338 provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be
1339 specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
1340 linker additions, eg;
1341 ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp
1342 [Geoff Thorpe]
1343
1344 *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when
1345 testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is
1346 produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt".
1347 [Geoff Thorpe]
1348
1349 *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
1350 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
1351 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>
1352 via PR#459)
1353 [Lutz Jaenicke]
1354
1355 *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD
1356 and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal
1357 software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can
1358 also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks.
1359 [Geoff Thorpe]
1360
1361 *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and
1362 primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in
1363 place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex"
1364 postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for
1365 the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide
1366 declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to
1367 migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API
1368 functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return
1369 success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to
1370 help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc.
1371
1372 Example for using the new callback interface:
1373
1374 int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...;
1375 void *my_arg = ...;
1376 BN_GENCB my_cb;
1377
1378 BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg);
1379
1380 return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb);
1381 /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the
1382 * documentation of the function that calls the callback.
1383 * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg.
1384 * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex()
1385 * to continue, or 0 to stop.
1386 */
1387
1388 [Geoff Thorpe]
1389
1390 *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it
1391 available to TLS with the number defined in
1392 draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt.
1393 [Richard Levitte]
1394
1395 *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which
1396 is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf):
1397
1398 CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE {
1399 forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1400 reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL,
1401 -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- }
1402
1403 Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate
1404 pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR".
1405
1406 This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP
1407 attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as
1408 well.
1409 [Richard Levitte]
1410
1411 *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in
1412 Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake.
1413 [Richard Levitte]
1414
1415 *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating a function
1416 void BN_set_negative(BIGNUM *a, int neg);
1417 and a macro that behave like
1418 int BN_is_negative(const BIGNUM *a);
1419
1420 to avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications.
1421 [Nils Larsch]
1422
1423 *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes
1424 used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c).
1425 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this
1426 if applicable.
1427 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1428
1429 *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN).
1430 [Bodo Moeller]
1431
1432 *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines
1433 dynamically from specific directories unless they could be
1434 found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the
1435 current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new
1436 directory engines/.
1437 The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if
1438 the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config.
1439 Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a.
1440 /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic
1441 engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through
1442 the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run
1443 time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES.
1444 [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte]
1445
1446 *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared
1447 libraries. Addapt Makefile.org.
1448 [Richard Levitte]
1449
1450 *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs.
1451 [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" <peter@runestig.com>]
1452
1453 *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys
1454 can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12
1455 files while avoiding the low level API.
1456
1457 New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and
1458 will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption
1459 algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac
1460 iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac.
1461
1462 Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts
1463 options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac
1464 to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm.
1465 New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create()
1466 instead of the low level API.
1467 [Steve Henson]
1468
1469 *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed
1470 encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in
1471 this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length
1472 encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to
1473 be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming
1474 PKCS#7 code.
1475
1476 Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed
1477 down to the template encoder.
1478 [Steve Henson]
1479
1480 *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not
1481 recognized instead of using RSA as a default.
1482 [Bodo Moeller]
1483
1484 *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt.
1485 As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL";
1486 the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them.
1487 [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1488
1489 *) Add ECDH engine support.
1490 [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1491
1492 *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/.
1493 [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1494
1495 *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations
1496 without success (which indicates a broken PRNG).
1497 [Bodo Moeller]
1498
1499 *) Change BN_mod_sqrt() so that it verifies that the input value
1500 is really the square of the return value. (Previously,
1501 BN_mod_sqrt would show GIGO behaviour.)
1502 [Bodo Moeller]
1503
1504 *) Add named elliptic curves over binary fields from X9.62, SECG,
1505 and WAP/WTLS; add OIDs that were still missing.
1506
1507 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1508 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1509
1510 *) Extend the EC library for elliptic curves over binary fields
1511 (new files ec2_smpl.c, ec2_smpt.c, ec2_mult.c in crypto/ec/).
1512 New EC_METHOD:
1513
1514 EC_GF2m_simple_method
1515
1516 New API functions:
1517
1518 EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m
1519 EC_GROUP_set_curve_GF2m
1520 EC_GROUP_get_curve_GF2m
1521 EC_POINT_set_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1522 EC_POINT_get_affine_coordinates_GF2m
1523 EC_POINT_set_compressed_coordinates_GF2m
1524
1525 Point compression for binary fields is disabled by default for
1526 patent reasons (compile with OPENSSL_EC_BIN_PT_COMP defined to
1527 enable it).
1528
1529 As binary polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs, various members
1530 of the EC_GROUP and EC_POINT data structures can be shared
1531 between the implementations for prime fields and binary fields;
1532 the above ..._GF2m functions (except for EX_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m)
1533 are essentially identical to their ..._GFp counterparts.
1534 (For simplicity, the '..._GFp' prefix has been dropped from
1535 various internal method names.)
1536
1537 An internal 'field_div' method (similar to 'field_mul' and
1538 'field_sqr') has been added; this is used only for binary fields.
1539
1540 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1541 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1542
1543 *) Optionally dispatch EC_POINT_mul(), EC_POINT_precompute_mult()
1544 through methods ('mul', 'precompute_mult').
1545
1546 The generic implementations (now internally called 'ec_wNAF_mul'
1547 and 'ec_wNAF_precomputed_mult') remain the default if these
1548 methods are undefined.
1549
1550 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1551 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1552
1553 *) New function EC_GROUP_get_degree, which is defined through
1554 EC_METHOD. For curves over prime fields, this returns the bit
1555 length of the modulus.
1556
1557 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1558 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1559
1560 *) New functions EC_GROUP_dup, EC_POINT_dup.
1561 (These simply call ..._new and ..._copy).
1562
1563 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1564 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1565
1566 *) Add binary polynomial arithmetic software in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c.
1567 Polynomials are represented as BIGNUMs (where the sign bit is not
1568 used) in the following functions [macros]:
1569
1570 BN_GF2m_add
1571 BN_GF2m_sub [= BN_GF2m_add]
1572 BN_GF2m_mod [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_arr]
1573 BN_GF2m_mod_mul [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr]
1574 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr]
1575 BN_GF2m_mod_inv
1576 BN_GF2m_mod_exp [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr]
1577 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr]
1578 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr]
1579 BN_GF2m_cmp [= BN_ucmp]
1580
1581 (Note that only the 'mod' functions are actually for fields GF(2^m).
1582 BN_GF2m_add() is misnomer, but this is for the sake of consistency.)
1583
1584 For some functions, an the irreducible polynomial defining a
1585 field can be given as an 'unsigned int[]' with strictly
1586 decreasing elements giving the indices of those bits that are set;
1587 i.e., p[] represents the polynomial
1588 f(t) = t^p[0] + t^p[1] + ... + t^p[k]
1589 where
1590 p[0] > p[1] > ... > p[k] = 0.
1591 This applies to the following functions:
1592
1593 BN_GF2m_mod_arr
1594 BN_GF2m_mod_mul_arr
1595 BN_GF2m_mod_sqr_arr
1596 BN_GF2m_mod_inv_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_inv]
1597 BN_GF2m_mod_div_arr [wrapper for BN_GF2m_mod_div]
1598 BN_GF2m_mod_exp_arr
1599 BN_GF2m_mod_sqrt_arr
1600 BN_GF2m_mod_solve_quad_arr
1601 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1602 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1603
1604 Conversion can be performed by the following functions:
1605
1606 BN_GF2m_poly2arr
1607 BN_GF2m_arr2poly
1608
1609 bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic.
1610
1611 Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available.
1612 The default algorithm simply uses BN_GF2m_mod_inv() and
1613 BN_GF2m_mod_mul(). The alternative algorithm is compiled in only
1614 if OPENSSL_SUN_GF2M_DIV is defined (patent pending; read the
1615 copyright notice in crypto/bn/bn_gf2m.c before enabling it).
1616
1617 [Sheueling Chang Shantz and Douglas Stebila
1618 (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)]
1619
1620 *) Add new error code 'ERR_R_DISABLED' that can be used when some
1621 functionality is disabled at compile-time.
1622 [Douglas Stebila <douglas.stebila@sun.com>]
1623
1624 *) Change default behaviour of 'openssl asn1parse' so that more
1625 information is visible when viewing, e.g., a certificate:
1626
1627 Modify asn1_parse2 (crypto/asn1/asn1_par.c) so that in non-'dump'
1628 mode the content of non-printable OCTET STRINGs is output in a
1629 style similar to INTEGERs, but with '[HEX DUMP]' prepended to
1630 avoid the appearance of a printable string.
1631 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1632
1633 *) Add 'asn1_flag' and 'asn1_form' member to EC_GROUP with access
1634 functions
1635 EC_GROUP_set_asn1_flag()
1636 EC_GROUP_get_asn1_flag()
1637 EC_GROUP_set_point_conversion_form()
1638 EC_GROUP_get_point_conversion_form()
1639 These control ASN1 encoding details:
1640 - Curves (i.e., groups) are encoded explicitly unless asn1_flag
1641 has been set to OPENSSL_EC_NAMED_CURVE.
1642 - Points are encoded in uncompressed form by default; options for
1643 asn1_for are as for point2oct, namely
1644 POINT_CONVERSION_COMPRESSED
1645 POINT_CONVERSION_UNCOMPRESSED
1646 POINT_CONVERSION_HYBRID
1647
1648 Also add 'seed' and 'seed_len' members to EC_GROUP with access
1649 functions
1650 EC_GROUP_set_seed()
1651 EC_GROUP_get0_seed()
1652 EC_GROUP_get_seed_len()
1653 This is used only for ASN1 purposes (so far).
1654 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1655
1656 *) Add 'field_type' member to EC_METHOD, which holds the NID
1657 of the appropriate field type OID. The new function
1658 EC_METHOD_get_field_type() returns this value.
1659 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1660
1661 *) Add functions
1662 EC_POINT_point2bn()
1663 EC_POINT_bn2point()
1664 EC_POINT_point2hex()
1665 EC_POINT_hex2point()
1666 providing useful interfaces to EC_POINT_point2oct() and
1667 EC_POINT_oct2point().
1668 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1669
1670 *) Change internals of the EC library so that the functions
1671 EC_GROUP_set_generator()
1672 EC_GROUP_get_generator()
1673 EC_GROUP_get_order()
1674 EC_GROUP_get_cofactor()
1675 are implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched
1676 to methods, which would lead to unnecessary code duplication when
1677 adding different types of curves.
1678 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> with input by Bodo Moeller]
1679
1680 *) Implement compute_wNAF (crypto/ec/ec_mult.c) without BIGNUM
1681 arithmetic, and such that modified wNAFs are generated
1682 (which avoid length expansion in many cases).
1683 [Bodo Moeller]
1684
1685 *) Add a function EC_GROUP_check_discriminant() (defined via
1686 EC_METHOD) that verifies that the curve discriminant is non-zero.
1687
1688 Add a function EC_GROUP_check() that makes some sanity tests
1689 on a EC_GROUP, its generator and order. This includes
1690 EC_GROUP_check_discriminant().
1691 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1692
1693 *) Add ECDSA in new directory crypto/ecdsa/.
1694
1695 Add applications 'openssl ecparam' and 'openssl ecdsa'
1696 (these are based on 'openssl dsaparam' and 'openssl dsa').
1697
1698 ECDSA support is also included in various other files across the
1699 library. Most notably,
1700 - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option;
1701 - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA;
1702 - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and
1703 d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make
1704 them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be
1705 extracted before the specific public key;
1706 - ECDSA engine support has been added.
1707 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
1708
1709 *) Include some named elliptic curves, and add OIDs from X9.62,
1710 SECG, and WAP/WTLS. Each curve can be obtained from the new
1711 function
1712 EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name(),
1713 and the list of available named curves can be obtained with
1714 EC_get_builtin_curves().
1715 Also add a 'curve_name' member to EC_GROUP objects, which can be
1716 accessed via
1717 EC_GROUP_set_curve_name()
1718 EC_GROUP_get_curve_name()
1719 [Nils Larsch <larsch@trustcenter.de, Bodo Moeller]
1720
1721 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
1722 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
1723 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
1724 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
1725 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
1726 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
1727 differing sizes.
1728 [Richard Levitte]
1729
1730 Changes between 0.9.7m and 0.9.7n [xx XXX xxxx]
1731
1732 *) In the SSL/TLS server implementation, be strict about session ID
1733 context matching (which matters if an application uses a single
1734 external cache for different purposes). Previously,
1735 out-of-context reuse was forbidden only if SSL_VERIFY_PEER was
1736 set. This did ensure strict client verification, but meant that,
1737 with applications using a single external cache for quite
1738 different requirements, clients could circumvent ciphersuite
1739 restrictions for a given session ID context by starting a session
1740 in a different context.
1741 [Bodo Moeller]
1742
1743 Changes between 0.9.7l and 0.9.7m [23 Feb 2007]
1744
1745 *) Cleanse PEM buffers before freeing them since they may contain
1746 sensitive data.
1747 [Benjamin Bennett <ben@psc.edu>]
1748
1749 *) Include "!eNULL" in SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST to make sure that
1750 a ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
1751 authentication-only ciphersuites.
1752 [Bodo Moeller]
1753
1754 *) Since AES128 and AES256 share a single mask bit in the logic of
1755 ssl/ssl_ciph.c, the code for masking out disabled ciphers needs a
1756 kludge to work properly if AES128 is available and AES256 isn't.
1757 [Victor Duchovni]
1758
1759 *) Expand security boundary to match 1.1.1 module.
1760 [Steve Henson]
1761
1762 *) Remove redundant features: hash file source, editing of test vectors
1763 modify fipsld to use external fips_premain.c signature.
1764 [Steve Henson]
1765
1766 *) New perl script mkfipsscr.pl to create shell scripts or batch files to
1767 run algorithm test programs.
1768 [Steve Henson]
1769
1770 *) Make algorithm test programs more tolerant of whitespace.
1771 [Steve Henson]
1772
1773 *) Have SSL/TLS server implementation tolerate "mismatched" record
1774 protocol version while receiving ClientHello even if the
1775 ClientHello is fragmented. (The server can't insist on the
1776 particular protocol version it has chosen before the ServerHello
1777 message has informed the client about his choice.)
1778 [Bodo Moeller]
1779
1780 *) Load error codes if they are not already present instead of using a
1781 static variable. This allows them to be cleanly unloaded and reloaded.
1782 [Steve Henson]
1783
1784 Changes between 0.9.7k and 0.9.7l [28 Sep 2006]
1785
1786 *) Introduce limits to prevent malicious keys being able to
1787 cause a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2940)
1788 [Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
1789
1790 *) Fix ASN.1 parsing of certain invalid structures that can result
1791 in a denial of service. (CVE-2006-2937) [Steve Henson]
1792
1793 *) Fix buffer overflow in SSL_get_shared_ciphers() function.
1794 (CVE-2006-3738) [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1795
1796 *) Fix SSL client code which could crash if connecting to a
1797 malicious SSLv2 server. (CVE-2006-4343)
1798 [Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry, Google Security Team]
1799
1800 *) Change ciphersuite string processing so that an explicit
1801 ciphersuite selects this one ciphersuite (so that "AES256-SHA"
1802 will no longer include "AES128-SHA"), and any other similar
1803 ciphersuite (same bitmap) from *other* protocol versions (so that
1804 "RC4-MD5" will still include both the SSL 2.0 ciphersuite and the
1805 SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 ciphersuite). This is a backport combining
1806 changes from 0.9.8b and 0.9.8d.
1807 [Bodo Moeller]
1808
1809 Changes between 0.9.7j and 0.9.7k [05 Sep 2006]
1810
1811 *) Avoid PKCS #1 v1.5 signature attack discovered by Daniel Bleichenbacher
1812 (CVE-2006-4339) [Ben Laurie and Google Security Team]
1813
1814 *) Change the Unix randomness entropy gathering to use poll() when
1815 possible instead of select(), since the latter has some
1816 undesirable limitations.
1817 [Darryl Miles via Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
1818
1819 *) Disable rogue ciphersuites:
1820
1821 - SSLv2 0x08 0x00 0x80 ("RC4-64-MD5")
1822 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x61 ("EXP1024-RC2-CBC-MD5")
1823 - SSLv3/TLSv1 0x00 0x60 ("EXP1024-RC4-MD5")
1824
1825 The latter two were purportedly from
1826 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-0[01].txt, but do not really
1827 appear there.
1828
1829 Also deactive the remaining ciphersuites from
1830 draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-01.txt. These are just as
1831 unofficial, and the ID has long expired.
1832 [Bodo Moeller]
1833
1834 *) Fix RSA blinding Heisenbug (problems sometimes occured on
1835 dual-core machines) and other potential thread-safety issues.
1836 [Bodo Moeller]
1837
1838 Changes between 0.9.7i and 0.9.7j [04 May 2006]
1839
1840 *) Adapt fipsld and the build system to link against the validated FIPS
1841 module in FIPS mode.
1842 [Steve Henson]
1843
1844 *) Fixes for VC++ 2005 build under Windows.
1845 [Steve Henson]
1846
1847 *) Add new Windows build target VC-32-GMAKE for VC++. This uses GNU make
1848 from a Windows bash shell such as MSYS. It is autodetected from the
1849 "config" script when run from a VC++ environment. Modify standard VC++
1850 build to use fipscanister.o from the GNU make build.
1851 [Steve Henson]
1852
1853 Changes between 0.9.7h and 0.9.7i [14 Oct 2005]
1854
1855 *) Wrapped the definition of EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE in a #ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS.
1856 The value now differs depending on if you build for FIPS or not.
1857 BEWARE! A program linked with a shared FIPSed libcrypto can't be
1858 safely run with a non-FIPSed libcrypto, as it may crash because of
1859 the difference induced by this change.
1860 [Andy Polyakov]
1861
1862 Changes between 0.9.7g and 0.9.7h [11 Oct 2005]
1863
1864 *) Remove the functionality of SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING
1865 (part of SSL_OP_ALL). This option used to disable the
1866 countermeasure against man-in-the-middle protocol-version
1867 rollback in the SSL 2.0 server implementation, which is a bad
1868 idea. (CVE-2005-2969)
1869
1870 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Yutaka Oiwa (Research Center
1871 for Information Security, National Institute of Advanced Industrial
1872 Science and Technology [AIST], Japan)]
1873
1874 *) Minimal support for X9.31 signatures and PSS padding modes. This is
1875 mainly for FIPS compliance and not fully integrated at this stage.
1876 [Steve Henson]
1877
1878 *) For DSA signing, unless DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME is set, perform
1879 the exponentiation using a fixed-length exponent. (Otherwise,
1880 the information leaked through timing could expose the secret key
1881 after many signatures; cf. Bleichenbacher's attack on DSA with
1882 biased k.)
1883 [Bodo Moeller]
1884
1885 *) Make a new fixed-window mod_exp implementation the default for
1886 RSA, DSA, and DH private-key operations so that the sequence of
1887 squares and multiplies and the memory access pattern are
1888 independent of the particular secret key. This will mitigate
1889 cache-timing and potential related attacks.
1890
1891 BN_mod_exp_mont_consttime() is the new exponentiation implementation,
1892 and this is automatically used by BN_mod_exp_mont() if the new flag
1893 BN_FLG_EXP_CONSTTIME is set for the exponent. RSA, DSA, and DH
1894 will use this BN flag for private exponents unless the flag
1895 RSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, DSA_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, or
1896 DH_FLAG_NO_EXP_CONSTTIME, respectively, is set.
1897
1898 [Matthew D Wood (Intel Corp), with some changes by Bodo Moeller]
1899
1900 *) Change the client implementation for SSLv23_method() and
1901 SSLv23_client_method() so that is uses the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0
1902 Client Hello message format if the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2 option is set.
1903 (Previously, the SSL 2.0 backwards compatible Client Hello
1904 message format would be used even with SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2.)
1905 [Bodo Moeller]
1906
1907 *) Add support for smime-type MIME parameter in S/MIME messages which some
1908 clients need.
1909 [Steve Henson]
1910
1911 *) New function BN_MONT_CTX_set_locked() to set montgomery parameters in
1912 a threadsafe manner. Modify rsa code to use new function and add calls
1913 to dsa and dh code (which had race conditions before).
1914 [Steve Henson]
1915
1916 *) Include the fixed error library code in the C error file definitions
1917 instead of fixing them up at runtime. This keeps the error code
1918 structures constant.
1919 [Steve Henson]
1920
1921 Changes between 0.9.7f and 0.9.7g [11 Apr 2005]
1922
1923 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.7h and later 0.9.7 patch levels were released after
1924 OpenSSL 0.9.8.]
1925
1926 *) Fixes for newer kerberos headers. NB: the casts are needed because
1927 the 'length' field is signed on one version and unsigned on another
1928 with no (?) obvious way to tell the difference, without these VC++
1929 complains. Also the "definition" of FAR (blank) is no longer included
1930 nor is the error ENOMEM. KRB5_PRIVATE has to be set to 1 to pick up
1931 some needed definitions.
1932 [Steve Henson]
1933
1934 *) Undo Cygwin change.
1935 [Ulf Möller]
1936
1937 *) Added support for proxy certificates according to RFC 3820.
1938 Because they may be a security thread to unaware applications,
1939 they must be explicitely allowed in run-time. See
1940 docs/HOWTO/proxy_certificates.txt for further information.
1941 [Richard Levitte]
1942
1943 Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.7f [22 Mar 2005]
1944
1945 *) Use (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - 4) bytes of pseudo random data when generating
1946 server and client random values. Previously
1947 (SSL_RANDOM_VALUE - sizeof(time_t)) would be used which would result in
1948 less random data when sizeof(time_t) > 4 (some 64 bit platforms).
1949
1950 This change has negligible security impact because:
1951
1952 1. Server and client random values still have 24 bytes of pseudo random
1953 data.
1954
1955 2. Server and client random values are sent in the clear in the initial
1956 handshake.
1957
1958 3. The master secret is derived using the premaster secret (48 bytes in
1959 size for static RSA ciphersuites) as well as client server and random
1960 values.
1961
1962 The OpenSSL team would like to thank the UK NISCC for bringing this issue
1963 to our attention.
1964
1965 [Stephen Henson, reported by UK NISCC]
1966
1967 *) Use Windows randomness collection on Cygwin.
1968 [Ulf Möller]
1969
1970 *) Fix hang in EGD/PRNGD query when communication socket is closed
1971 prematurely by EGD/PRNGD.
1972 [Darren Tucker <dtucker@zip.com.au> via Lutz Jänicke, resolves #1014]
1973
1974 *) Prompt for pass phrases when appropriate for PKCS12 input format.
1975 [Steve Henson]
1976
1977 *) Back-port of selected performance improvements from development
1978 branch, as well as improved support for PowerPC platforms.
1979 [Andy Polyakov]
1980
1981 *) Add lots of checks for memory allocation failure, error codes to indicate
1982 failure and freeing up memory if a failure occurs.
1983 [Nauticus Networks SSL Team <openssl@nauticusnet.com>, Steve Henson]
1984
1985 *) Add new -passin argument to dgst.
1986 [Steve Henson]
1987
1988 *) Perform some character comparisons of different types in X509_NAME_cmp:
1989 this is needed for some certificates that reencode DNs into UTF8Strings
1990 (in violation of RFC3280) and can't or wont issue name rollover
1991 certificates.
1992 [Steve Henson]
1993
1994 *) Make an explicit check during certificate validation to see that
1995 the CA setting in each certificate on the chain is correct. As a
1996 side effect always do the following basic checks on extensions,
1997 not just when there's an associated purpose to the check:
1998
1999 - if there is an unhandled critical extension (unless the user
2000 has chosen to ignore this fault)
2001 - if the path length has been exceeded (if one is set at all)
2002 - that certain extensions fit the associated purpose (if one has
2003 been given)
2004 [Richard Levitte]
2005
2006 Changes between 0.9.7d and 0.9.7e [25 Oct 2004]
2007
2008 *) Avoid a race condition when CRLs are checked in a multi threaded
2009 environment. This would happen due to the reordering of the revoked
2010 entries during signature checking and serial number lookup. Now the
2011 encoding is cached and the serial number sort performed under a lock.
2012 Add new STACK function sk_is_sorted().
2013 [Steve Henson]
2014
2015 *) Add Delta CRL to the extension code.
2016 [Steve Henson]
2017
2018 *) Various fixes to s3_pkt.c so alerts are sent properly.
2019 [David Holmes <d.holmes@f5.com>]
2020
2021 *) Reduce the chances of duplicate issuer name and serial numbers (in
2022 violation of RFC3280) using the OpenSSL certificate creation utilities.
2023 This is done by creating a random 64 bit value for the initial serial
2024 number when a serial number file is created or when a self signed
2025 certificate is created using 'openssl req -x509'. The initial serial
2026 number file is created using 'openssl x509 -next_serial' in CA.pl
2027 rather than being initialized to 1.
2028 [Steve Henson]
2029
2030 Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.7d [17 Mar 2004]
2031
2032 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
2033 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
2034 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2035
2036 *) Fix flaw in SSL/TLS handshaking when using Kerberos ciphersuites
2037 (CVE-2004-0112)
2038 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
2039
2040 *) Make it possible to have multiple active certificates with the same
2041 subject in the CA index file. This is done only if the keyword
2042 'unique_subject' is set to 'no' in the main CA section (default
2043 if 'CA_default') of the configuration file. The value is saved
2044 with the database itself in a separate index attribute file,
2045 named like the index file with '.attr' appended to the name.
2046 [Richard Levitte]
2047
2048 *) X509 verify fixes. Disable broken certificate workarounds when
2049 X509_V_FLAGS_X509_STRICT is set. Check CRL issuer has cRLSign set if
2050 keyUsage extension present. Don't accept CRLs with unhandled critical
2051 extensions: since verify currently doesn't process CRL extensions this
2052 rejects a CRL with *any* critical extensions. Add new verify error codes
2053 for these cases.
2054 [Steve Henson]
2055
2056 *) When creating an OCSP nonce use an OCTET STRING inside the extnValue.
2057 A clarification of RFC2560 will require the use of OCTET STRINGs and
2058 some implementations cannot handle the current raw format. Since OpenSSL
2059 copies and compares OCSP nonces as opaque blobs without any attempt at
2060 parsing them this should not create any compatibility issues.
2061 [Steve Henson]
2062
2063 *) New md flag EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_REUSE this allows md_data to be reused when
2064 calling EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() to avoid calling OPENSSL_malloc(). Without
2065 this HMAC (and other) operations are several times slower than OpenSSL
2066 < 0.9.7.
2067 [Steve Henson]
2068
2069 *) Print out GeneralizedTime and UTCTime in ASN1_STRING_print_ex().
2070 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2071
2072 *) Use the correct content when signing type "other".
2073 [Steve Henson]
2074
2075 Changes between 0.9.7b and 0.9.7c [30 Sep 2003]
2076
2077 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
2078
2079 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
2080 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
2081
2082 Free up ASN1_TYPE correctly if ANY type is invalid (CVE-2003-0545).
2083
2084 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
2085 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
2086
2087 [Steve Henson]
2088
2089 *) New -ignore_err option in ocsp application to stop the server
2090 exiting on the first error in a request.
2091 [Steve Henson]
2092
2093 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
2094 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
2095 specifications.
2096 [Steve Henson]
2097
2098 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
2099 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
2100 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
2101 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
2102
2103 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
2104 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
2105 [Richard Levitte]
2106
2107 *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
2108 blocks during encryption.
2109 [Richard Levitte]
2110
2111 *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
2112 flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
2113 data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
2114 This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
2115 certain size.
2116 [Steve Henson]
2117
2118 *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
2119 output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
2120 PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
2121 Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
2122 of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
2123 parser.
2124 [Steve Henson]
2125
2126 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b [10 Apr 2003]
2127
2128 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
2129 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
2130 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
2131 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
2132 [Bodo Moeller]
2133
2134 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
2135 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
2136 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
2137 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
2138 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
2139
2140 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
2141 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
2142 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
2143 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
2144 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
2145 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
2146 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
2147 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
2148 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
2149 [Bodo Moeller]
2150
2151 *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
2152 ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
2153 the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
2154 should make sure they are passing it correctly.
2155 [Geoff Thorpe]
2156
2157 *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
2158 the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
2159 [Ulf Moeller]
2160
2161 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a [19 Feb 2003]
2162
2163 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
2164 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
2165 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
2166 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
2167 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
2168
2169 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
2170 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
2171 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
2172
2173 *) Make the no-err option work as intended. The intention with no-err
2174 is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
2175 libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
2176 reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
2177 be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.
2178
2179 NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have it's
2180 own set of error texts inserted. The routines are there, just not
2181 used by default when no-err is given.
2182 [Richard Levitte]
2183
2184 *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
2185 [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]
2186
2187 *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
2188 Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum(). Before this change,
2189 the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
2190 mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
2191 [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]
2192
2193 *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
2194 Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
2195 ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
2196 correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.
2197
2198 Now the chain builder is disabled if either:
2199
2200 1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
2201
2202 2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.
2203
2204 The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
2205 auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
2206 present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
2207 certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
2208 root is omitted).
2209 [Steve Henson]
2210
2211 *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
2212 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2213
2214 *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
2215 OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
2216 [Steve Henson]
2217
2218 *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
2219 could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
2220 enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
2221 Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
2222 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2223
2224 *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
2225 checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
2226 could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
2227 behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
2228 SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
2229 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2230 followup to PR #377.
2231 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2232
2233 *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
2234 for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
2235 [Andy Polyakov]
2236
2237 *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64. As a consequence, support for
2238 FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
2239 the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
2240 [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]
2241
2242 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7 [31 Dec 2002]
2243
2244 [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
2245 OpenSSL 0.9.7.]
2246
2247 *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
2248 code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
2249 octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
2250 caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
2251 client and server.
2252 Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
2253 PR #377.
2254 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2255
2256 *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
2257 instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5. LIBKRB5 is
2258 removed entirely.
2259 [Richard Levitte]
2260
2261 *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks. Unfortunately, it
2262 seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
2263 author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
2264 means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
2265 This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
2266 of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
2267 of libcrypto.
2268 NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY. This hack will never
2269 appear in 0.9.8 or later. We EXPECT application authors to have
2270 dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
2271 make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
2272 have to be made anyway).
2273 [Richard Levitte]
2274
2275 *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
2276 octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
2277 some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
2278 [Steve Henson]
2279
2280 *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
2281 Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
2282 warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
2283 [Richard Levitte]
2284
2285 *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
2286 INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
2287 [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]
2288
2289 *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
2290 cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
2291 edit numbers of the version.
2292 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
2293
2294 *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
2295 (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
2296 [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]
2297
2298 *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
2299 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2300
2301 *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2302 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2303 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2304
2305 *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
2306 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2307
2308 *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
2309 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2310
2311 *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
2312 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2313
2314 *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
2315 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2316
2317 *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
2318 overflows.
2319 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2320
2321 *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
2322 potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
2323 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2324
2325 *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
2326 representations in a platform independent manner.
2327 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2328
2329 *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
2330 resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
2331 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2332
2333 *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
2334 indents.
2335 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2336
2337 *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
2338 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2339
2340 *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
2341 full. Fixed.
2342 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2343
2344 *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
2345 overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
2346 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2347
2348 *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
2349 unconditionally).
2350 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2351
2352 *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
2353 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2354
2355 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
2356 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2357
2358 *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
2359 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2360
2361 *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
2362 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2363
2364 *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
2365 CBCParameter.
2366 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2367
2368 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
2369 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2370
2371 *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
2372 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2373
2374 *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
2375 session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
2376 exploitable.
2377 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2378
2379 *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
2380 the 0.9.6 release series:
2381
2382 Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
2383 supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
2384 (CVE-2002-0657)
2385 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
2386
2387 *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
2388 [Richard Levitte]
2389
2390 *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
2391 [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]
2392
2393 *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
2394 [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]
2395
2396 *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
2397 have been removed entirely. This was also the last step to make
2398 OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
2399 [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]
2400
2401 *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
2402 to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
2403 which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.
2404
2405 (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
2406 out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
2407 "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
2408 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
2409
2410 *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
2411 directories. The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
2412 build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
2413 some local tweaks:
2414
2415 # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree. In
2416 # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
2417 # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
2418 mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2419 cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
2420 (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
2421 mkdir -p `dirname $F`
2422 ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
2423 done
2424
2425 To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
2426 is a good thing. If it isn't successfull, don't worry about it,
2427 it probably means the source directory is very clean.
2428 [Richard Levitte]
2429
2430 *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
2431 pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
2432 the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
2433 data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
2434 [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]
2435
2436 *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
2437 [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]
2438
2439 *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database. Correct an
2440 error in AES-CFB decryption.
2441 [Richard Levitte]
2442
2443 *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
2444 allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
2445 calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
2446 BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
2447 applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
2448 EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
2449 [Steve Henson]
2450
2451 *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
2452 bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
2453 n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
2454 [Steve Henson]
2455
2456 *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
2457 of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
2458 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2459
2460 *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
2461 form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
2462 Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
2463 therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
2464 The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
2465 x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
2466 Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
2467 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2468
2469 *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
2470 ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
2471 after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
2472 ENGINE is initailized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
2473 on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
2474 init=0 then the ENGINE will not be iniatialized at all.
2475 [Steve Henson]
2476
2477 *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
2478 argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
2479 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
2480 declaration has been changed from
2481 int (*cb)()
2482 into
2483 int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
2484 in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
2485 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx)
2486 has been changed into
2487 i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg).
2488
2489 To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(),
2490 a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions.
2491 [D. K. Smetters <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]
2492
2493 *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
2494 [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]
2495
2496 *) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause
2497 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file.
2498 This allows older applications to transparently support certain
2499 OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading.
2500 Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never
2501 load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will
2502 always load it have also been added.
2503 [Steve Henson]
2504
2505 *) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES.
2506 Adjust NIDs and EVP layer.
2507 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2508
2509 *) Config modules support in openssl utility.
2510
2511 Most commands now load modules from the config file,
2512 though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
2513 because it couldn't be used for anything.
2514
2515 In the case of ca and req the config file used is
2516 the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
2517 command line option can be used to specify an
2518 alternative file.
2519 [Steve Henson]
2520
2521 *) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL
2522 use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file.
2523 [Steve Henson]
2524
2525 *) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative
2526 config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file
2527 and move code to CONF_modules_load_file().
2528 [Steve Henson]
2529
2530 *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
2531 Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
2532 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
2533 to work with the new engine framework.
2534 [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]
2535
2536 *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
2537 Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
2538 The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
2539 to work with the new engine framework.
2540 [Richard Levitte]
2541
2542 *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
2543 make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
2544 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]
2545
2546 *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
2547 [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]
2548
2549 *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
2550 Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
2551 implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
2552 handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
2553 FORMAT_IISSGC.
2554 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2555
2556 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
2557 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
2558
2559 *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
2560 [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]
2561
2562 *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
2563 BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
2564 ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
2565 [Ben Laurie]
2566
2567 *) Add new functions
2568 ERR_peek_last_error
2569 ERR_peek_last_error_line
2570 ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
2571 These are similar to
2572 ERR_peek_error
2573 ERR_peek_error_line
2574 ERR_peek_error_line_data,
2575 but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
2576 still in the error queue.
2577 [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]
2578
2579 *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
2580 like:
2581 default_algorithms = ALL
2582 default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
2583 [Steve Henson]
2584
2585 *) Prelminary ENGINE config module.
2586 [Steve Henson]
2587
2588 *) New experimental application configuration code.
2589 [Steve Henson]
2590
2591 *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
2592 symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way. Move everything to
2593 the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
2594 [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]
2595
2596 *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
2597 [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]
2598
2599 *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
2600 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2601
2602 *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
2603 (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
2604 [Bodo Moeller]
2605
2606 *) New functions/macros
2607
2608 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
2609 SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
2610 SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
2611 SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)
2612
2613 to request calling a callback function
2614
2615 void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
2616 const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)
2617
2618 whenever a protocol message has been completely received
2619 (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1). Here 'version' is the
2620 protocol version according to which the SSL library interprets
2621 the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
2622 TLS1_VERSION). 'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
2623 the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
2624 specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
2625 'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
2626 SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
2627 SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
2628
2629 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
2630 to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
2631 [Bodo Moeller]
2632
2633 *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
2634 soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
2635 openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
2636 This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
2637 the configuration scripts.
2638
2639 NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
2640 backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
2641 ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
2642
2643 *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
2644 [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
2645
2646 *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
2647 additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
2648 when reusing an existing buffer.
2649 [Bodo Moeller]
2650
2651 *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
2652 This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
2653 [Steve Henson]
2654
2655 *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
2656 runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
2657 [Ben Laurie]
2658
2659 *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'. This prevents inclusion
2660 of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
2661 extension only). The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
2662 has the same effect.
2663 [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]
2664
2665 *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
2666 with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
2667 but are named _ossl_old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the
2668 des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
2669 compatibility is desired. If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
2670 desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
2671 exception.
2672
2673 Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
2674 define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
2675 compatibility is desired. The default (i.e., when that macro
2676 isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.
2677
2678 There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
2679 des functions altogether. Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
2680 and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT. If none or both of those
2681 are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.
2682
2683 In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
2684 definitions. Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
2685 won't work.
2686
2687 NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
2688 authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
2689 time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
2690 will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
2691 default), and then completely removed.
2692 [Richard Levitte]
2693
2694 *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
2695 If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
2696 rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
2697 handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
2698 by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
2699 X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
2700 particular extension is supported.
2701 [Steve Henson]
2702
2703 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
2704 to retain compatibility with existing code.
2705 [Steve Henson]
2706
2707 *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
2708 compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
2709 not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
2710 it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
2711 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
2712 EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
2713 initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
2714 requires the destination to be valid.
2715
2716 Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
2717 EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
2718 [Steve Henson]
2719
2720 *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
2721 so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
2722 instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
2723 [Bodo Moeller]
2724
2725 *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
2726 [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]
2727
2728 *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
2729 reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
2730 (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
2731 of specific crypto iterfaces. This change also introduces integrated
2732 support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
2733 can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
2734 implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
2735 as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
2736 API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
2737 were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
2738 reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
2739 deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
2740 RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
2741 dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
2742 functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
2743 they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
2744 BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
2745 'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
2746 ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
2747 the new code.
2748 [Geoff Thorpe]
2749
2750 *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
2751 [Steve Henson]
2752
2753 *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
2754 and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
2755 become part of libeay.num as well.
2756 [Richard Levitte]
2757
2758 *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending(). This returns true once
2759 renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
2760 or HelloRequest/ClientHello receveived from the peer) and becomes
2761 false once a handshake has been completed.
2762 (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
2763 sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
2764 place. SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
2765 client has followed the request.)
2766 [Bodo Moeller]
2767
2768 *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
2769 By default, clients may request session resumption even during
2770 renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
2771 session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.
2772
2773 SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL. This makes
2774 more bits available for options that should not be part of
2775 SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
2776 [Bodo Moeller]
2777
2778 *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
2779 [Steve Henson]
2780
2781 *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
2782 settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
2783 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
2784 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2785
2786 *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
2787 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
2788 [Lutz Jaenicke]
2789
2790 *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
2791 be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
2792 ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
2793 functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
2794 [Geoff Thorpe]
2795
2796 *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
2797 "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
2798 makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
2799 and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
2800 Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
2801 shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
2802 [Geoff Thorpe]
2803
2804 *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
2805 implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
2806 self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
2807 commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
2808 to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
2809 the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
2810 provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
2811 (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
2812 [Geoff Thorpe]
2813
2814 *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
2815 "ERR_unload_strings" function.
2816 [Geoff Thorpe]
2817
2818 *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
2819 [Ben Laurie]
2820
2821 *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
2822 md_data void pointer.
2823 [Ben Laurie]
2824
2825 *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
2826 that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
2827 (typically because it is provided by a piece of
2828 hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
2829 is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
2830 framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
2831 [Ben Laurie]
2832
2833 *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
2834 functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
2835 ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
2836 RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
2837 index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
2838 to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
2839 and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
2840 classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
2841 thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
2842 up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
2843 such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
2844 workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
2845 to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
2846 leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
2847 rather than letting it slide.
2848
2849 Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
2850 induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
2851 has a return value to indicate success or failure.
2852 [Geoff Thorpe]
2853
2854 *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
2855 global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
2856 implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
2857 the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
2858 any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
2859 pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
2860 can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
2861 module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
2862 application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
2863 [Geoff Thorpe]
2864
2865 *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
2866 reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
2867 the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
2868 (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
2869 to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.
2870
2871 Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
2872 [Geoff Thorpe]
2873
2874 *) Add EVP test program.
2875 [Ben Laurie]
2876
2877 *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
2878 [Ben Laurie]
2879
2880 *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
2881 X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
2882 X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
2883 These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
2884 directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
2885 [Steve Henson]
2886
2887 *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
2888 bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
2889 The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
2890 available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
2891 Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
2892 for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
2893 [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]
2894
2895 *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
2896 cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
2897 (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
2898 Usage example:
2899
2900 EVP_MD_CTX md;
2901
2902 EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md); /* new function call */
2903 EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
2904 EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
2905 EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
2906 EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md); /* new function call */
2907
2908 [Ben Laurie]
2909
2910 *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
2911 correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
2912 now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
2913 plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
2914 anyway): E.g.,
2915
2916 des_key_schedule ks;
2917
2918 des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
2919 des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);
2920
2921 (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
2922 [Ben Laurie]
2923
2924 *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
2925 PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
2926 poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
2927 which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
2928 ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
2929 functions prevents this.
2930 [Steve Henson]
2931
2932 *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
2933 [Ben Laurie]
2934
2935 *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
2936 correct _ecb suffix.
2937 [Ben Laurie]
2938
2939 *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
2940 revocation information is handled using the text based index
2941 use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
2942 requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
2943 via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
2944 [Steve Henson]
2945
2946 *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
2947 [Richard Levitte]
2948
2949 *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
2950 1. Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
2951 KRB5 AP_REQ message. [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
2952 2. Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.
2953
2954 Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
2955 and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.
2956
2957 Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
2958 [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
2959 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
2960 via Richard Levitte]
2961
2962 *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
2963 already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
2964 values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
2965 parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
2966 [Geoff Thorpe]
2967
2968 *) Speed up EVP routines.
2969 Before:
2970 encrypt
2971 type 8 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes
2972 des-cbc 4408.85k 5560.51k 5778.46k 5862.20k 5825.16k
2973 des-cbc 4389.55k 5571.17k 5792.23k 5846.91k 5832.11k

2978 des-cbc 3483.72k 5067.62k 5504.60k 5708.01k 5724.80k
2979 After:
2980 encrypt
2981 des-cbc 4660.16k 5650.19k 5807.19k 5827.13k 5783.32k
2982 decrypt
2983 des-cbc 3624.96k 5258.21k 5530.91k 5624.30k 5628.26k
2984 [Ben Laurie]
2985
2986 *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
2987 ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]
2988
2989 *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
2990 to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
2991 to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
2992 structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
2993 retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
2994 code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
2995 [Steve Henson]
2996
2997 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
2998 and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
2999 [Richard Levitte]
3000
3001 *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
3002 applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
3003 don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
3004 [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]
3005
3006 *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
3007 arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
3008 Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
3009 function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
3010 versions of OpenSSL [engine].
3011 Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
3012 callback.
3013 [Richard Levitte]
3014
3015 *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
3016 dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
3017 to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
3018 and interrupts/cancellations.
3019 [Richard Levitte]
3020
3021 *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
3022 attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
3023 [Steve Henson]
3024
3025 *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
3026 tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
3027 [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]
3028
3029 *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
3030 callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
3031 kind of callback.
3032 [Richard Levitte]
3033
3034 *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
3035 256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
3036 than this minimum value is recommended.
3037 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3038
3039 *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
3040 that are easily reachable.
3041 [Richard Levitte]
3042
3043 *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
3044 variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:
3045
3046 const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;
3047
3048 wont compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
3049 declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
3050 EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
3051 needed for static libraries under Win32.
3052 [Steve Henson]
3053
3054 *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
3055 setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
3056 purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
3057 [Steve Henson]
3058
3059 *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
3060 structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
3061 initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
3062 X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
3063 purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
3064 internally such as S/MIME.
3065
3066 Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
3067 trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
3068 purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.
3069
3070 Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
3071 applications.
3072 [Steve Henson]
3073
3074 *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
3075 are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
3076 its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
3077 in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.
3078
3079 Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.
3080
3081 Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.
3082
3083 This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
3084 CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
3085 by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
3086 handling.
3087 [Steve Henson]
3088
3089 *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/). This is designed
3090 to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
3091 compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
3092 The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
3093 section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
3094 a window system and the like.
3095 [Richard Levitte]
3096
3097 *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
3098 per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
3099 [Geoff]
3100
3101 *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
3102 ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
3103 This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
3104 analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
3105 operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
3106 fact they all share the same "methods". New ENGINE structures returned in
3107 this case have no functional references and the return value is the single
3108 structural reference. This matches the single structural reference returned
3109 by ENGINE_by_id() normally, when it is incremented on the pre-existing
3110 ENGINE structure.
3111 [Geoff]
3112
3113 *) Fix ASN1 decoder when decoding type ANY and V_ASN1_OTHER: since this
3114 needs to match any other type at all we need to manually clear the
3115 tag cache.
3116 [Steve Henson]
3117
3118 *) Changes to the "openssl engine" utility to include;
3119 - verbosity levels ('-v', '-vv', and '-vvv') that provide information
3120 about an ENGINE's available control commands.
3121 - executing control commands from command line arguments using the
3122 '-pre' and '-post' switches. '-post' is only used if '-t' is
3123 specified and the ENGINE is successfully initialised. The syntax for
3124 the individual commands are colon-separated, for example;
3125 openssl engine chil -pre FORK_CHECK:0 -pre SO_PATH:/lib/test.so
3126 [Geoff]
3127
3128 *) New dynamic control command support for ENGINEs. ENGINEs can now
3129 declare their own commands (numbers), names (strings), descriptions,
3130 and input types for run-time discovery by calling applications. A
3131 subset of these commands are implicitly classed as "executable"
3132 depending on their input type, and only these can be invoked through
3133 the new string-based API function ENGINE_ctrl_cmd_string(). (Eg. this
3134 can be based on user input, config files, etc). The distinction is
3135 that "executable" commands cannot return anything other than a boolean
3136 result and can only support numeric or string input, whereas some
3137 discoverable commands may only be for direct use through
3138 ENGINE_ctrl(), eg. supporting the exchange of binary data, function
3139 pointers, or other custom uses. The "executable" commands are to
3140 support parameterisations of ENGINE behaviour that can be
3141 unambiguously defined by ENGINEs and used consistently across any
3142 OpenSSL-based application. Commands have been added to all the
3143 existing hardware-supporting ENGINEs, noticeably "SO_PATH" to allow
3144 control over shared-library paths without source code alterations.
3145 [Geoff]
3146
3147 *) Changed all ENGINE implementations to dynamically allocate their
3148 ENGINEs rather than declaring them statically. Apart from this being
3149 necessary with the removal of the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED distinction,
3150 this also allows the implementations to compile without using the
3151 internal engine_int.h header.
3152 [Geoff]
3153
3154 *) Minor adjustment to "rand" code. RAND_get_rand_method() now returns a
3155 'const' value. Any code that should be able to modify a RAND_METHOD
3156 should already have non-const pointers to it (ie. they should only
3157 modify their own ones).
3158 [Geoff]
3159
3160 *) Made a variety of little tweaks to the ENGINE code.
3161 - "atalla" and "ubsec" string definitions were moved from header files
3162 to C code. "nuron" string definitions were placed in variables
3163 rather than hard-coded - allowing parameterisation of these values
3164 later on via ctrl() commands.
3165 - Removed unused "#if 0"'d code.
3166 - Fixed engine list iteration code so it uses ENGINE_free() to release
3167 structural references.
3168 - Constified the RAND_METHOD element of ENGINE structures.
3169 - Constified various get/set functions as appropriate and added
3170 missing functions (including a catch-all ENGINE_cpy that duplicates
3171 all ENGINE values onto a new ENGINE except reference counts/state).
3172 - Removed NULL parameter checks in get/set functions. Setting a method
3173 or function to NULL is a way of cancelling out a previously set
3174 value. Passing a NULL ENGINE parameter is just plain stupid anyway
3175 and doesn't justify the extra error symbols and code.
3176 - Deprecate the ENGINE_FLAGS_MALLOCED define and move the area for
3177 flags from engine_int.h to engine.h.
3178 - Changed prototypes for ENGINE handler functions (init(), finish(),
3179 ctrl(), key-load functions, etc) to take an (ENGINE*) parameter.
3180 [Geoff]
3181
3182 *) Implement binary inversion algorithm for BN_mod_inverse in addition
3183 to the algorithm using long division. The binary algorithm can be
3184 used only if the modulus is odd. On 32-bit systems, it is faster
3185 only for relatively small moduli (roughly 20-30% for 128-bit moduli,
3186 roughly 5-15% for 256-bit moduli), so we use it only for moduli
3187 up to 450 bits. In 64-bit environments, the binary algorithm
3188 appears to be advantageous for much longer moduli; here we use it
3189 for moduli up to 2048 bits.
3190 [Bodo Moeller]
3191
3192 *) Rewrite CHOICE field setting in ASN1_item_ex_d2i(). The old code
3193 could not support the combine flag in choice fields.
3194 [Steve Henson]
3195
3196 *) Add a 'copy_extensions' option to the 'ca' utility. This copies
3197 extensions from a certificate request to the certificate.
3198 [Steve Henson]
3199
3200 *) Allow multiple 'certopt' and 'nameopt' options to be separated
3201 by commas. Add 'namopt' and 'certopt' options to the 'ca' config
3202 file: this allows the display of the certificate about to be
3203 signed to be customised, to allow certain fields to be included
3204 or excluded and extension details. The old system didn't display
3205 multicharacter strings properly, omitted fields not in the policy
3206 and couldn't display additional details such as extensions.
3207 [Steve Henson]
3208
3209 *) Function EC_POINTs_mul for multiple scalar multiplication
3210 of an arbitrary number of elliptic curve points
3211 \sum scalars[i]*points[i],
3212 optionally including the generator defined for the EC_GROUP:
3213 scalar*generator + \sum scalars[i]*points[i].
3214
3215 EC_POINT_mul is a simple wrapper function for the typical case
3216 that the point list has just one item (besides the optional
3217 generator).
3218 [Bodo Moeller]
3219
3220 *) First EC_METHODs for curves over GF(p):
3221
3222 EC_GFp_simple_method() uses the basic BN_mod_mul and BN_mod_sqr
3223 operations and provides various method functions that can also
3224 operate with faster implementations of modular arithmetic.
3225
3226 EC_GFp_mont_method() reuses most functions that are part of
3227 EC_GFp_simple_method, but uses Montgomery arithmetic.
3228
3229 [Bodo Moeller; point addition and point doubling
3230 implementation directly derived from source code provided by
3231 Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>]
3232
3233 *) Framework for elliptic curves (crypto/ec/ec.h, crypto/ec/ec_lcl.h,
3234 crypto/ec/ec_lib.c):
3235
3236 Curves are EC_GROUP objects (with an optional group generator)
3237 based on EC_METHODs that are built into the library.
3238
3239 Points are EC_POINT objects based on EC_GROUP objects.
3240
3241 Most of the framework would be able to handle curves over arbitrary
3242 finite fields, but as there are no obvious types for fields other
3243 than GF(p), some functions are limited to that for now.
3244 [Bodo Moeller]
3245
3246 *) Add the -HTTP option to s_server. It is similar to -WWW, but requires
3247 that the file contains a complete HTTP response.
3248 [Richard Levitte]
3249
3250 *) Add the ec directory to mkdef.pl and mkfiles.pl. In mkdef.pl
3251 change the def and num file printf format specifier from "%-40sXXX"
3252 to "%-39s XXX". The latter will always guarantee a space after the
3253 field while the former will cause them to run together if the field
3254 is 40 of more characters long.
3255 [Steve Henson]
3256
3257 *) Constify the cipher and digest 'method' functions and structures
3258 and modify related functions to take constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
3259 pointers.
3260 [Steve Henson]
3261
3262 *) Hide BN_CTX structure details in bn_lcl.h instead of publishing them
3263 in <openssl/bn.h>. Also further increase BN_CTX_NUM to 32.
3264 [Bodo Moeller]
3265
3266 *) Modify EVP_Digest*() routines so they now return values. Although the
3267 internal software routines can never fail additional hardware versions
3268 might.
3269 [Steve Henson]
3270
3271 *) Clean up crypto/err/err.h and change some error codes to avoid conflicts:
3272
3273 Previously ERR_R_FATAL was too small and coincided with ERR_LIB_PKCS7
3274 (= ERR_R_PKCS7_LIB); it is now 64 instead of 32.
3275
3276 ASN1 error codes
3277 ERR_R_NESTED_ASN1_ERROR
3278 ...
3279 ERR_R_MISSING_ASN1_EOS
3280 were 4 .. 9, conflicting with
3281 ERR_LIB_RSA (= ERR_R_RSA_LIB)
3282 ...
3283 ERR_LIB_PEM (= ERR_R_PEM_LIB).
3284 They are now 58 .. 63 (i.e., just below ERR_R_FATAL).
3285
3286 Add new error code 'ERR_R_INTERNAL_ERROR'.
3287 [Bodo Moeller]
3288
3289 *) Don't overuse locks in crypto/err/err.c: For data retrieval, CRYPTO_r_lock
3290 suffices.
3291 [Bodo Moeller]
3292
3293 *) New option '-subj arg' for 'openssl req' and 'openssl ca'. This
3294 sets the subject name for a new request or supersedes the
3295 subject name in a given request. Formats that can be parsed are
3296 'CN=Some Name, OU=myOU, C=IT'
3297 and
3298 'CN=Some Name/OU=myOU/C=IT'.
3299
3300 Add options '-batch' and '-verbose' to 'openssl req'.
3301 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>]
3302
3303 *) Introduce the possibility to access global variables through
3304 functions on platform were that's the best way to handle exporting
3305 global variables in shared libraries. To enable this functionality,
3306 one must configure with "EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN" or defined the C macro
3307 "OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION" in crypto/opensslconf.h (the latter
3308 is normally done by Configure or something similar).
3309
3310 To implement a global variable, use the macro OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL
3311 in the source file (foo.c) like this:
3312
3313 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(int,foo)=1;
3314 OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3315
3316 To declare a global variable, use the macros OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL
3317 and OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF in the header file (foo.h) like this:
3318
3319 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(int,foo);
3320 #define foo OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(foo)
3321 OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL(double,bar);
3322 #define bar OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF(bar)
3323
3324 The #defines are very important, and therefore so is including the
3325 header file everywhere where the defined globals are used.
3326
3327 The macro OPENSSL_EXPORT_VAR_AS_FUNCTION also affects the definition
3328 of ASN.1 items, but that structure is a bit different.
3329
3330 The largest change is in util/mkdef.pl which has been enhanced with
3331 better and easier to understand logic to choose which symbols should
3332 go into the Windows .def files as well as a number of fixes and code
3333 cleanup (among others, algorithm keywords are now sorted
3334 lexicographically to avoid constant rewrites).
3335 [Richard Levitte]
3336
3337 *) In BN_div() keep a copy of the sign of 'num' before writing the
3338 result to 'rm' because if rm==num the value will be overwritten
3339 and produce the wrong result if 'num' is negative: this caused
3340 problems with BN_mod() and BN_nnmod().
3341 [Steve Henson]
3342
3343 *) Function OCSP_request_verify(). This checks the signature on an
3344 OCSP request and verifies the signer certificate. The signer
3345 certificate is just checked for a generic purpose and OCSP request
3346 trust settings.
3347 [Steve Henson]
3348
3349 *) Add OCSP_check_validity() function to check the validity of OCSP
3350 responses. OCSP responses are prepared in real time and may only
3351 be a few seconds old. Simply checking that the current time lies
3352 between thisUpdate and nextUpdate max reject otherwise valid responses
3353 caused by either OCSP responder or client clock inaccuracy. Instead
3354 we allow thisUpdate and nextUpdate to fall within a certain period of
3355 the current time. The age of the response can also optionally be
3356 checked. Two new options -validity_period and -status_age added to
3357 ocsp utility.
3358 [Steve Henson]
3359
3360 *) If signature or public key algorithm is unrecognized print out its
3361 OID rather that just UNKNOWN.
3362 [Steve Henson]
3363
3364 *) Change OCSP_cert_to_id() to tolerate a NULL subject certificate and
3365 OCSP_cert_id_new() a NULL serialNumber. This allows a partial certificate
3366 ID to be generated from the issuer certificate alone which can then be
3367 passed to OCSP_id_issuer_cmp().
3368 [Steve Henson]
3369
3370 *) New compilation option ASN1_ITEM_FUNCTIONS. This causes the new
3371 ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers
3372 instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several
3373 new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to
3374 be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM
3375 references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant
3376 macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow
3377 use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures
3378 is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting
3379 functions returning pointers to structures is not.
3380 [Steve Henson]
3381
3382 *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs.
3383 These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL.
3384 The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish,
3385 the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it
3386 can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A
3387 command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes
3388 to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server".
3389 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
3390
3391 *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse preprocessor conditionals
3392 of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and
3393 '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids
3394 the growing number of special cases it was previously handling.
3395 [Richard Levitte]
3396
3397 *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making
3398 sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
3399 with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
3400 sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
3401 opensslconf.h.
3402 Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform-
3403 specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these
3404 are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another
3405 macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined
3406 from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on
3407 what is available.
3408 [Richard Levitte]
3409
3410 *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial
3411 number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self
3412 signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the
3413 CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was
3414 auto incremented.
3415 [Steve Henson]
3416
3417 *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions.
3418 Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are
3419 supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects.
3420 [Steve Henson]
3421
3422 *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to
3423 disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP
3424 API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is
3425 not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple
3426 of the block size, otherwise an error occurs.
3427 [Steve Henson]
3428
3429 *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support.
3430 [Steve Henson]
3431
3432 *) New function OCSP_parse_url(). This splits up a URL into its host,
3433 port and path components: primarily to parse OCSP URLs. New -url
3434 option to ocsp utility.
3435 [Steve Henson]
3436
3437 *) New nonce behavior. The return value of OCSP_check_nonce() now
3438 reflects the various checks performed. Applications can decide
3439 whether to tolerate certain situations such as an absent nonce
3440 in a response when one was present in a request: the ocsp application
3441 just prints out a warning. New function OCSP_add1_basic_nonce()
3442 this is to allow responders to include a nonce in a response even if
3443 the request is nonce-less.
3444 [Steve Henson]
3445
3446 *) Disable stdin buffering in load_cert (apps/apps.c) so that no certs are
3447 skipped when using openssl x509 multiple times on a single input file,
3448 e.g. "(openssl x509 -out cert1; openssl x509 -out cert2) <certs".
3449 [Bodo Moeller]
3450
3451 *) Make ASN1_UTCTIME_set_string() and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()
3452 set string type: to handle setting ASN1_TIME structures. Fix ca
3453 utility to correctly initialize revocation date of CRLs.
3454 [Steve Henson]
3455
3456 *) New option SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE allows the server to override
3457 the clients preferred ciphersuites and rather use its own preferences.
3458 Should help to work around M$ SGC (Server Gated Cryptography) bug in
3459 Internet Explorer by ensuring unchanged hash method during stepup.
3460 (Also replaces the broken/deactivated SSL_OP_NON_EXPORT_FIRST option.)
3461 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3462
3463 *) Make mkdef.pl recognise all DECLARE_ASN1 macros, change rijndael
3464 to aes and add a new 'exist' option to print out symbols that don't
3465 appear to exist.
3466 [Steve Henson]
3467
3468 *) Additional options to ocsp utility to allow flags to be set and
3469 additional certificates supplied.
3470 [Steve Henson]
3471
3472 *) Add the option -VAfile to 'openssl ocsp', so the user can give the
3473 OCSP client a number of certificate to only verify the response
3474 signature against.
3475 [Richard Levitte]
3476
3477 *) Update Rijndael code to version 3.0 and change EVP AES ciphers to
3478 handle the new API. Currently only ECB, CBC modes supported. Add new
3479 AES OIDs.
3480
3481 Add TLS AES ciphersuites as described in RFC3268, "Advanced
3482 Encryption Standard (AES) Ciphersuites for Transport Layer
3483 Security (TLS)". (In beta versions of OpenSSL 0.9.7, these were
3484 not enabled by default and were not part of the "ALL" ciphersuite
3485 alias because they were not yet official; they could be
3486 explicitly requested by specifying the "AESdraft" ciphersuite
3487 group alias. In the final release of OpenSSL 0.9.7, the group
3488 alias is called "AES" and is part of "ALL".)
3489 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Bodo Moeller]
3490
3491 *) New function OCSP_copy_nonce() to copy nonce value (if present) from
3492 request to response.
3493 [Steve Henson]
3494
3495 *) Functions for OCSP responders. OCSP_request_onereq_count(),
3496 OCSP_request_onereq_get0(), OCSP_onereq_get0_id() and OCSP_id_get0_info()
3497 extract information from a certificate request. OCSP_response_create()
3498 creates a response and optionally adds a basic response structure.
3499 OCSP_basic_add1_status() adds a complete single response to a basic
3500 response and returns the OCSP_SINGLERESP structure just added (to allow
3501 extensions to be included for example). OCSP_basic_add1_cert() adds a
3502 certificate to a basic response and OCSP_basic_sign() signs a basic
3503 response with various flags. New helper functions ASN1_TIME_check()
3504 (checks validity of ASN1_TIME structure) and ASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()
3505 (converts ASN1_TIME to GeneralizedTime).
3506 [Steve Henson]
3507
3508 *) Various new functions. EVP_Digest() combines EVP_Digest{Init,Update,Final}()
3509 in a single operation. X509_get0_pubkey_bitstr() extracts the public_key
3510 structure from a certificate. X509_pubkey_digest() digests the public_key
3511 contents: this is used in various key identifiers.
3512 [Steve Henson]
3513
3514 *) Make sk_sort() tolerate a NULL argument.
3515 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3516
3517 *) New OCSP verify flag OCSP_TRUSTOTHER. When set the "other" certificates
3518 passed by the function are trusted implicitly. If any of them signed the
3519 response then it is assumed to be valid and is not verified.
3520 [Steve Henson]
3521
3522 *) In PKCS7_set_type() initialise content_type in PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT
3523 to data. This was previously part of the PKCS7 ASN1 code. This
3524 was causing problems with OpenSSL created PKCS#12 and PKCS#7 structures.
3525 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3526 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3527
3528 *) Add CRYPTO_push_info() and CRYPTO_pop_info() calls to new ASN1
3529 routines: without these tracing memory leaks is very painful.
3530 Fix leaks in PKCS12 and PKCS7 routines.
3531 [Steve Henson]
3532
3533 *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
3534 Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
3535 effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
3536 is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
3537 and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
3538 V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.
3539 [Steve Henson, reported by Kenneth R. Robinette
3540 <support@securenetterm.com>]
3541
3542 *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
3543 result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
3544 not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
3545 and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
3546 to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
3547 where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.
3548 [Steve Henson]
3549
3550 *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
3551 convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
3552 OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
3553 OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
3554 to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
3555 printout format cleaned up.
3556 [Steve Henson]
3557
3558 *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
3559 in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
3560 certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
3561 or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
3562 OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
3563 usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
3564 signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
3565 in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
3566 [Steve Henson]
3567
3568 *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
3569 and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
3570 verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
3571 to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
3572 performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
3573 if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
3574 a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
3575 chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.
3576 [Steve Henson]
3577
3578 *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
3579 extensions from a separate configuration file.
3580 As when reading extensions from the main configuration file,
3581 the '-extensions ...' option may be used for specifying the
3582 section to use.
3583 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3584
3585 *) New OCSP utility. Allows OCSP requests to be generated or
3586 read. The request can be sent to a responder and the output
3587 parsed, outputed or printed in text form. Not complete yet:
3588 still needs to check the OCSP response validity.
3589 [Steve Henson]
3590
3591 *) New subcommands for 'openssl ca':
3592 'openssl ca -status <serial>' prints the status of the cert with
3593 the given serial number (according to the index file).
3594 'openssl ca -updatedb' updates the expiry status of certificates
3595 in the index file.
3596 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it>]
3597
3598 *) New '-newreq-nodes' command option to CA.pl. This is like
3599 '-newreq', but calls 'openssl req' with the '-nodes' option
3600 so that the resulting key is not encrypted.
3601 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
3602
3603 *) New configuration for the GNU Hurd.
3604 [Jonathan Bartlett <johnnyb@wolfram.com> via Richard Levitte]
3605
3606 *) Initial code to implement OCSP basic response verify. This
3607 is currently incomplete. Currently just finds the signer's
3608 certificate and verifies the signature on the response.
3609 [Steve Henson]
3610
3611 *) New SSLeay_version code SSLEAY_DIR to determine the compiled-in
3612 value of OPENSSLDIR. This is available via the new '-d' option
3613 to 'openssl version', and is also included in 'openssl version -a'.
3614 [Bodo Moeller]
3615
3616 *) Allowing defining memory allocation callbacks that will be given
3617 file name and line number information in additional arguments
3618 (a const char* and an int). The basic functionality remains, as
3619 well as the original possibility to just replace malloc(),
3620 realloc() and free() by functions that do not know about these
3621 additional arguments. To register and find out the current
3622 settings for extended allocation functions, the following
3623 functions are provided:
3624
3625 CRYPTO_set_mem_ex_functions
3626 CRYPTO_set_locked_mem_ex_functions
3627 CRYPTO_get_mem_ex_functions
3628 CRYPTO_get_locked_mem_ex_functions
3629
3630 These work the same way as CRYPTO_set_mem_functions and friends.
3631 CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_functions now writes 0 where such an
3632 extended allocation function is enabled.
3633 Similarly, CRYPTO_get_[locked_]mem_ex_functions writes 0 where
3634 a conventional allocation function is enabled.
3635 [Richard Levitte, Bodo Moeller]
3636
3637 *) Finish off removing the remaining LHASH function pointer casts.
3638 There should no longer be any prototype-casting required when using
3639 the LHASH abstraction, and any casts that remain are "bugs". See
3640 the callback types and macros at the head of lhash.h for details
3641 (and "OBJ_cleanup" in crypto/objects/obj_dat.c as an example).
3642 [Geoff Thorpe]
3643
3644 *) Add automatic query of EGD sockets in RAND_poll() for the unix variant.
3645 If /dev/[u]random devices are not available or do not return enough
3646 entropy, EGD style sockets (served by EGD or PRNGD) will automatically
3647 be queried.
3648 The locations /var/run/egd-pool, /dev/egd-pool, /etc/egd-pool, and
3649 /etc/entropy will be queried once each in this sequence, quering stops
3650 when enough entropy was collected without querying more sockets.
3651 [Lutz Jaenicke]
3652
3653 *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
3654 random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
3655 of data has been collected. We spend at most 10 ms on each file
3656 (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode. DEVRANDOM now
3657 defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
3658 (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
3659 platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
3660 Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
3661 For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
3662 [Richard Levitte]
3663
3664 *) Move OCSP client related routines to ocsp_cl.c. These
3665 provide utility functions which an application needing
3666 to issue a request to an OCSP responder and analyse the
3667 response will typically need: as opposed to those which an
3668 OCSP responder itself would need which will be added later.
3669
3670 OCSP_request_sign() signs an OCSP request with an API similar
3671 to PKCS7_sign(). OCSP_response_status() returns status of OCSP
3672 response. OCSP_response_get1_basic() extracts basic response
3673 from response. OCSP_resp_find_status(): finds and extracts status
3674 information from an OCSP_CERTID structure (which will be created
3675 when the request structure is built). These are built from lower
3676 level functions which work on OCSP_SINGLERESP structures but
3677 wont normally be used unless the application wishes to examine
3678 extensions in the OCSP response for example.
3679
3680 Replace nonce routines with a pair of functions.
3681 OCSP_request_add1_nonce() adds a nonce value and optionally
3682 generates a random value. OCSP_check_nonce() checks the
3683 validity of the nonce in an OCSP response.
3684 [Steve Henson]
3685
3686 *) Change function OCSP_request_add() to OCSP_request_add0_id().
3687 This doesn't copy the supplied OCSP_CERTID and avoids the
3688 need to free up the newly created id. Change return type
3689 to OCSP_ONEREQ to return the internal OCSP_ONEREQ structure.
3690 This can then be used to add extensions to the request.
3691 Deleted OCSP_request_new(), since most of its functionality
3692 is now in OCSP_REQUEST_new() (and the case insensitive name
3693 clash) apart from the ability to set the request name which
3694 will be added elsewhere.
3695 [Steve Henson]
3696
3697 *) Update OCSP API. Remove obsolete extensions argument from
3698 various functions. Extensions are now handled using the new
3699 OCSP extension code. New simple OCSP HTTP function which
3700 can be used to send requests and parse the response.
3701 [Steve Henson]
3702
3703 *) Fix the PKCS#7 (S/MIME) code to work with new ASN1. Two new
3704 ASN1_ITEM structures help with sign and verify. PKCS7_ATTR_SIGN
3705 uses the special reorder version of SET OF to sort the attributes
3706 and reorder them to match the encoded order. This resolves a long
3707 standing problem: a verify on a PKCS7 structure just after signing
3708 it used to fail because the attribute order did not match the
3709 encoded order. PKCS7_ATTR_VERIFY does not reorder the attributes:
3710 it uses the received order. This is necessary to tolerate some broken
3711 software that does not order SET OF. This is handled by encoding
3712 as a SEQUENCE OF but using implicit tagging (with UNIVERSAL class)
3713 to produce the required SET OF.
3714 [Steve Henson]
3715
3716 *) Have mk1mf.pl generate the macros OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBCRYPTO and
3717 OPENSSL_BUILD_SHLIBSSL and use them appropriately in the header
3718 files to get correct declarations of the ASN.1 item variables.
3719 [Richard Levitte]
3720
3721 *) Rewrite of PKCS#12 code to use new ASN1 functionality. Replace many
3722 PKCS#12 macros with real functions. Fix two unrelated ASN1 bugs:
3723 asn1_check_tlen() would sometimes attempt to use 'ctx' when it was
3724 NULL and ASN1_TYPE was not dereferenced properly in asn1_ex_c2i().
3725 New ASN1 macro: DECLARE_ASN1_ITEM() which just declares the relevant
3726 ASN1_ITEM and no wrapper functions.
3727 [Steve Henson]
3728
3729 *) New functions or ASN1_item_d2i_fp() and ASN1_item_d2i_bio(). These
3730 replace the old function pointer based I/O routines. Change most of
3731 the *_d2i_bio() and *_d2i_fp() functions to use these.
3732 [Steve Henson]
3733
3734 *) Enhance mkdef.pl to be more accepting about spacing in C preprocessor
3735 lines, recognice more "algorithms" that can be deselected, and make
3736 it complain about algorithm deselection that isn't recognised.
3737 [Richard Levitte]
3738
3739 *) New ASN1 functions to handle dup, sign, verify, digest, pack and
3740 unpack operations in terms of ASN1_ITEM. Modify existing wrappers
3741 to use new functions. Add NO_ASN1_OLD which can be set to remove
3742 some old style ASN1 functions: this can be used to determine if old
3743 code will still work when these eventually go away.
3744 [Steve Henson]
3745
3746 *) New extension functions for OCSP structures, these follow the
3747 same conventions as certificates and CRLs.
3748 [Steve Henson]
3749
3750 *) New function X509V3_add1_i2d(). This automatically encodes and
3751 adds an extension. Its behaviour can be customised with various
3752 flags to append, replace or delete. Various wrappers added for
3753 certifcates and CRLs.
3754 [Steve Henson]
3755
3756 *) Fix to avoid calling the underlying ASN1 print routine when
3757 an extension cannot be parsed. Correct a typo in the
3758 OCSP_SERVICELOC extension. Tidy up print OCSP format.
3759 [Steve Henson]
3760
3761 *) Make mkdef.pl parse some of the ASN1 macros and add apropriate
3762 entries for variables.
3763 [Steve Henson]
3764
3765 *) Add functionality to apps/openssl.c for detecting locking
3766 problems: As the program is single-threaded, all we have
3767 to do is register a locking callback using an array for
3768 storing which locks are currently held by the program.
3769 [Bodo Moeller]
3770
3771 *) Use a lock around the call to CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index() in
3772 SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_idx(), which is used in
3773 ssl_verify_cert_chain() and thus can be called at any time
3774 during TLS/SSL handshakes so that thread-safety is essential.
3775 Unfortunately, the ex_data design is not at all suited
3776 for multi-threaded use, so it probably should be abolished.
3777 [Bodo Moeller]
3778
3779 *) Added Broadcom "ubsec" ENGINE to OpenSSL.
3780 [Broadcom, tweaked and integrated by Geoff Thorpe]
3781
3782 *) Move common extension printing code to new function
3783 X509V3_print_extensions(). Reorganise OCSP print routines and
3784 implement some needed OCSP ASN1 functions. Add OCSP extensions.
3785 [Steve Henson]
3786
3787 *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
3788 print routines.
3789 [Steve Henson]
3790
3791 *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
3792 set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
3793 is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
3794 encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
3795 structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
3796 order did not reflect the encoded order.
3797 [Steve Henson]
3798
3799 *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
3800 [Steve Henson]
3801
3802 *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
3803 for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
3804 for now but they will eventually go away.
3805 [Steve Henson]
3806
3807 *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
3808 completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality with a table driven
3809 encoder and decoder which interprets an ASN1_ITEM structure describing
3810 the ASN1 module. Compatibility with the existing ASN1 API (i2d,d2i) is
3811 largely maintained. Almost all of the old asn1_mac.h macro based ASN1
3812 has also been converted to the new form.
3813 [Steve Henson]
3814
3815 *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
3816 (the sign is ignored). Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
3817 so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
3818 for negative moduli.
3819 [Bodo Moeller]
3820
3821 *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
3822 of not touching the result's sign bit.
3823 [Bodo Moeller]
3824
3825 *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
3826 set.
3827 [Bodo Moeller]
3828
3829 *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
3830 macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
3831 that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
3832 type-specific callbacks.
3833 [Geoff Thorpe]
3834
3835 *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
3836 RFC 2712.
3837 [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
3838 Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
3839
3840 *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
3841 in sections depending on the subject.
3842 [Richard Levitte]
3843
3844 *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
3845 Windows.
3846 [Richard Levitte]
3847
3848 *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
3849 (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
3850 p == 3 (mod 4) or p == 5 (mod 8), which are cases that can
3851 be handled deterministically).
3852 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
3853
3854 *) Make BN_mod_inverse faster by explicitly handling small quotients
3855 in the Euclid loop. (Speed gain about 20% for small moduli [256 or
3856 512 bits], about 30% for larger ones [1024 or 2048 bits].)
3857 [Bodo Moeller]
3858
3859 *) New function BN_kronecker.
3860 [Bodo Moeller]
3861
3862 *) Fix BN_gcd so that it works on negative inputs; the result is
3863 positive unless both parameters are zero.
3864 Previously something reasonably close to an infinite loop was
3865 possible because numbers could be growing instead of shrinking
3866 in the implementation of Euclid's algorithm.
3867 [Bodo Moeller]
3868
3869 *) Fix BN_is_word() and BN_is_one() macros to take into account the
3870 sign of the number in question.
3871
3872 Fix BN_is_word(a,w) to work correctly for w == 0.
3873
3874 The old BN_is_word(a,w) macro is now called BN_abs_is_word(a,w)
3875 because its test if the absolute value of 'a' equals 'w'.
3876 Note that BN_abs_is_word does *not* handle w == 0 reliably;
3877 it exists mostly for use in the implementations of BN_is_zero(),
3878 BN_is_one(), and BN_is_word().
3879 [Bodo Moeller]
3880
3881 *) New function BN_swap.
3882 [Bodo Moeller]
3883
3884 *) Use BN_nnmod instead of BN_mod in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c so that
3885 the exponentiation functions are more likely to produce reasonable
3886 results on negative inputs.
3887 [Bodo Moeller]
3888
3889 *) Change BN_mod_mul so that the result is always non-negative.
3890 Previously, it could be negative if one of the factors was negative;
3891 I don't think anyone really wanted that behaviour.
3892 [Bodo Moeller]
3893
3894 *) Move BN_mod_... functions into new file crypto/bn/bn_mod.c
3895 (except for exponentiation, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c,
3896 and BN_mod_mul_reciprocal, which stays in crypto/bn/bn_recp.c)
3897 and add new functions:
3898
3899 BN_nnmod
3900 BN_mod_sqr
3901 BN_mod_add
3902 BN_mod_add_quick
3903 BN_mod_sub
3904 BN_mod_sub_quick
3905 BN_mod_lshift1
3906 BN_mod_lshift1_quick
3907 BN_mod_lshift
3908 BN_mod_lshift_quick
3909
3910 These functions always generate non-negative results.
3911
3912 BN_nnmod otherwise is like BN_mod (if BN_mod computes a remainder r
3913 such that |m| < r < 0, BN_nnmod will output rem + |m| instead).
3914
3915 BN_mod_XXX_quick(r, a, [b,] m) generates the same result as
3916 BN_mod_XXX(r, a, [b,] m, ctx), but requires that a [and b]
3917 be reduced modulo m.
3918 [Lenka Fibikova <fibikova@exp-math.uni-essen.de>, Bodo Moeller]
3919
3920 #if 0
3921 The following entry accidentily appeared in the CHANGES file
3922 distributed with OpenSSL 0.9.7. The modifications described in
3923 it do *not* apply to OpenSSL 0.9.7.
3924
3925 *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
3926 was actually never needed) and in BN_mul(). The removal in BN_mul()
3927 required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
3928 of the functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words() and
3929 bn_add_part_words(), which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
3930 bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
3931 differing sizes.
3932 [Richard Levitte]
3933 #endif
3934
3935 *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
3936 unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
3937 verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
3938 hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
3939 or the new '-noverify' option is used.
3940
3941 This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
3942 non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
3943 line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
3944 cause any problems.
3945 [Bodo Moeller]
3946
3947 *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
3948 [Richard Levitte]
3949
3950 *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
3951 (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
3952 [Richard Levitte]
3953
3954 *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
3955 Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it. In a
3956 few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
3957 casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
3958 time)
3959 [Richard Levitte]
3960
3961 *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
3962 [Richard Levitte]
3963
3964 *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
3965 [Richard Levitte]
3966
3967 *) Add the following functions:
3968
3969 ENGINE_load_cswift()
3970 ENGINE_load_chil()
3971 ENGINE_load_atalla()
3972 ENGINE_load_nuron()
3973 ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
3974
3975 That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
3976 are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not. The benefit is
3977 that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
3978 libraries unless it's really needed.
3979
3980 Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
3981 Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
3982 declarations (they differed!).
3983 [Richard Levitte]
3984
3985 *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
3986 [Richard Levitte]
3987
3988 *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
3989 [Richard Levitte]
3990
3991 *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
3992 [Bodo Moeller]
3993
3994 *) Add engine application. It can currently list engines by name and
3995 identity, and test if they are actually available.
3996 [Richard Levitte]
3997
3998 *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
3999 sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
4000 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
4001
4002 *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
4003 keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
4004 [Richard Levitte]
4005
4006 *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
4007 [Richard Levitte]
4008
4009 *) Add VMS support for the Rijndael code.
4010 [Richard Levitte]
4011
4012 *) Added untested support for Nuron crypto accelerator.
4013 [Ben Laurie]
4014
4015 *) Add support for external cryptographic devices. This code was
4016 previously distributed separately as the "engine" branch.
4017 [Geoff Thorpe, Richard Levitte]
4018
4019 *) Rework the filename-translation in the DSO code. It is now possible to
4020 have far greater control over how a "name" is turned into a filename
4021 depending on the operating environment and any oddities about the
4022 different shared library filenames on each system.
4023 [Geoff Thorpe]
4024
4025 *) Support threads on FreeBSD-elf in Configure.
4026 [Richard Levitte]
4027
4028 *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
4029 warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
4030 with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
4031 of two sections.
4032 [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
4033
4034 *) NCONF changes.
4035 NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all. As a replacement,
4036 NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
4037 promoted strongly. The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
4038 binary backward compatibility.
4039 Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
4040 by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
4041 For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
4042 LDAP server.
4043 [Richard Levitte]
4044
4045 *) Fix for non blocking accept BIOs. Added new I/O special reason
4046 BIO_RR_ACCEPT to cover this case. Previously use of accept BIOs
4047 with non blocking I/O was not possible because no retry code was
4048 implemented. Also added new SSL code SSL_WANT_ACCEPT to cover
4049 this case.
4050 [Steve Henson]
4051
4052 *) Added the beginnings of Rijndael support.
4053 [Ben Laurie]
4054
4055 *) Fix for bug in DirectoryString mask setting. Add support for
4056 X509_NAME_print_ex() in 'req' and X509_print_ex() function
4057 to allow certificate printing to more controllable, additional
4058 'certopt' option to 'x509' to allow new printing options to be
4059 set.
4060 [Steve Henson]
4061
4062 *) Clean old EAY MD5 hack from e_os.h.
4063 [Richard Levitte]
4064
4065 Changes between 0.9.6l and 0.9.6m [17 Mar 2004]
4066
4067 *) Fix null-pointer assignment in do_change_cipher_spec() revealed
4068 by using the Codenomicon TLS Test Tool (CVE-2004-0079)
4069 [Joe Orton, Steve Henson]
4070
4071 Changes between 0.9.6k and 0.9.6l [04 Nov 2003]
4072
4073 *) Fix additional bug revealed by the NISCC test suite:
4074
4075 Stop bug triggering large recursion when presented with
4076 certain ASN.1 tags (CVE-2003-0851)
4077 [Steve Henson]
4078
4079 Changes between 0.9.6j and 0.9.6k [30 Sep 2003]
4080
4081 *) Fix various bugs revealed by running the NISCC test suite:
4082
4083 Stop out of bounds reads in the ASN1 code when presented with
4084 invalid tags (CVE-2003-0543 and CVE-2003-0544).
4085
4086 If verify callback ignores invalid public key errors don't try to check
4087 certificate signature with the NULL public key.
4088
4089 [Steve Henson]
4090
4091 *) In ssl3_accept() (ssl/s3_srvr.c) only accept a client certificate
4092 if the server requested one: as stated in TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0
4093 specifications.
4094 [Steve Henson]
4095
4096 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello() (ssl/s3_srvr.c), tolerate additional
4097 extra data after the compression methods not only for TLS 1.0
4098 but also for SSL 3.0 (as required by the specification).
4099 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Matthias Loepfe]
4100
4101 *) Change X509_certificate_type() to mark the key as exported/exportable
4102 when it's 512 *bits* long, not 512 bytes.
4103 [Richard Levitte]
4104
4105 Changes between 0.9.6i and 0.9.6j [10 Apr 2003]
4106
4107 *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
4108 Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
4109 a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
4110 in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
4111 [Bodo Moeller]
4112
4113 *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
4114 to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
4115 RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
4116 They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
4117 [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4118
4119 *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
4120 seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
4121 an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
4122 is no point in blinding anyway). Make RSA blinding thread-safe
4123 by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
4124 having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
4125 (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
4126 avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
4127 between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
4128 [Bodo Moeller]
4129
4130 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.6i [19 Feb 2003]
4131
4132 *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
4133 via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrrect
4134 block cipher padding has been found. This is a countermeasure
4135 against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
4136 between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)
4137
4138 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
4139 Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
4140 Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]
4141
4142 Changes between 0.9.6g and 0.9.6h [5 Dec 2002]
4143
4144 *) New function OPENSSL_cleanse(), which is used to cleanse a section of
4145 memory from it's contents. This is done with a counter that will
4146 place alternating values in each byte. This can be used to solve
4147 two issues: 1) the removal of calls to memset() by highly optimizing
4148 compilers, and 2) cleansing with other values than 0, since those can
4149 be read through on certain media, for example a swap space on disk.
4150 [Geoff Thorpe]
4151
4152 *) Bugfix: client side session caching did not work with external caching,
4153 because the session->cipher setting was not restored when reloading
4154 from the external cache. This problem was masked, when
4155 SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG (part of SSL_OP_ALL) was set.
4156 (Found by Steve Haslam <steve@araqnid.ddts.net>.)
4157 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4158
4159 *) Fix client_certificate (ssl/s2_clnt.c): The permissible total
4160 length of the REQUEST-CERTIFICATE message is 18 .. 34, not 17 .. 33.
4161 [Zeev Lieber <zeev-l@yahoo.com>]
4162
4163 *) Undo an undocumented change introduced in 0.9.6e which caused
4164 repeated calls to OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers() and
4165 OpenSSL_add_all_digests() to be ignored, even after calling
4166 EVP_cleanup().
4167 [Richard Levitte]
4168
4169 *) Change the default configuration reader to deal with last line not
4170 being properly terminated.
4171 [Richard Levitte]
4172
4173 *) Change X509_NAME_cmp() so it applies the special rules on handling
4174 DN values that are of type PrintableString, as well as RDNs of type
4175 emailAddress where the value has the type ia5String.
4176 [stefank@valicert.com via Richard Levitte]
4177
4178 *) Add a SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE flag to take over half
4179 the job SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP was inconsistently
4180 doing, define a new flag (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL) to be
4181 the bitwise-OR of the two for use by the majority of applications
4182 wanting this behaviour, and update the docs. The documented
4183 behaviour and actual behaviour were inconsistent and had been
4184 changing anyway, so this is more a bug-fix than a behavioural
4185 change.
4186 [Geoff Thorpe, diagnosed by Nadav Har'El]
4187
4188 *) Don't impose a 16-byte length minimum on session IDs in ssl/s3_clnt.c
4189 (the SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 specifications allow any length up to 32 bytes).
4190 [Bodo Moeller]
4191
4192 *) Fix initialization code race conditions in
4193 SSLv23_method(), SSLv23_client_method(), SSLv23_server_method(),
4194 SSLv2_method(), SSLv2_client_method(), SSLv2_server_method(),
4195 SSLv3_method(), SSLv3_client_method(), SSLv3_server_method(),
4196 TLSv1_method(), TLSv1_client_method(), TLSv1_server_method(),
4197 ssl2_get_cipher_by_char(),
4198 ssl3_get_cipher_by_char().
4199 [Patrick McCormick <patrick@tellme.com>, Bodo Moeller]
4200
4201 *) Reorder cleanup sequence in SSL_CTX_free(): only remove the ex_data after
4202 the cached sessions are flushed, as the remove_cb() might use ex_data
4203 contents. Bug found by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>
4204 (see [openssl.org #212]).
4205 [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke]
4206
4207 *) Fix typo in OBJ_txt2obj which incorrectly passed the content
4208 length, instead of the encoding length to d2i_ASN1_OBJECT.
4209 [Steve Henson]
4210
4211 Changes between 0.9.6f and 0.9.6g [9 Aug 2002]
4212
4213 *) [In 0.9.6g-engine release:]
4214 Fix crypto/engine/vendor_defns/cswift.h for WIN32 (use '_stdcall').
4215 [Lynn Gazis <lgazis@rainbow.com>]
4216
4217 Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.6f [8 Aug 2002]
4218
4219 *) Fix ASN1 checks. Check for overflow by comparing with LONG_MAX
4220 and get fix the header length calculation.
4221 [Florian Weimer <Weimer@CERT.Uni-Stuttgart.DE>,
4222 Alon Kantor <alonk@checkpoint.com> (and others),
4223 Steve Henson]
4224
4225 *) Use proper error handling instead of 'assertions' in buffer
4226 overflow checks added in 0.9.6e. This prevents DoS (the
4227 assertions could call abort()).
4228 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, Bodo Moeller]
4229
4230 Changes between 0.9.6d and 0.9.6e [30 Jul 2002]
4231
4232 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4233 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4234 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4235 supplied buffer.
4236 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4237
4238 *) Fix cipher selection routines: ciphers without encryption had no flags
4239 for the cipher strength set and where therefore not handled correctly
4240 by the selection routines (PR #130).
4241 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4242
4243 *) Fix EVP_dsa_sha macro.
4244 [Nils Larsch]
4245
4246 *) New option
4247 SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS
4248 for disabling the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 CBC vulnerability countermeasure
4249 that was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6d.
4250
4251 As the countermeasure turned out to be incompatible with some
4252 broken SSL implementations, the new option is part of SSL_OP_ALL.
4253 SSL_OP_ALL is usually employed when compatibility with weird SSL
4254 implementations is desired (e.g. '-bugs' option to 's_client' and
4255 's_server'), so the new option is automatically set in many
4256 applications.
4257 [Bodo Moeller]
4258
4259 *) Changes in security patch:
4260
4261 Changes marked "(CHATS)" were sponsored by the Defense Advanced
4262 Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Air Force Research Laboratory,
4263 Air Force Materiel Command, USAF, under agreement number
4264 F30602-01-2-0537.
4265
4266 *) Add various sanity checks to asn1_get_length() to reject
4267 the ASN1 length bytes if they exceed sizeof(long), will appear
4268 negative or the content length exceeds the length of the
4269 supplied buffer. (CVE-2002-0659)
4270 [Steve Henson, Adi Stav <stav@mercury.co.il>, James Yonan <jim@ntlp.com>]
4271
4272 *) Assertions for various potential buffer overflows, not known to
4273 happen in practice.
4274 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4275
4276 *) Various temporary buffers to hold ASCII versions of integers were
4277 too small for 64 bit platforms. (CVE-2002-0655)
4278 [Matthew Byng-Maddick <mbm@aldigital.co.uk> and Ben Laurie (CHATS)>
4279
4280 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
4281 supply an oversized session ID to a client. (CVE-2002-0656)
4282 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4283
4284 *) Remote buffer overflow in SSL2 protocol - an attacker could
4285 supply an oversized client master key. (CVE-2002-0656)
4286 [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]
4287
4288 Changes between 0.9.6c and 0.9.6d [9 May 2002]
4289
4290 *) Fix crypto/asn1/a_sign.c so that 'parameters' is omitted (not
4291 encoded as NULL) with id-dsa-with-sha1.
4292 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>; problem pointed out by Bodo Moeller]
4293
4294 *) Check various X509_...() return values in apps/req.c.
4295 [Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de>]
4296
4297 *) Fix BASE64 decode (EVP_DecodeUpdate) for data with CR/LF ended lines:
4298 an end-of-file condition would erronously be flagged, when the CRLF
4299 was just at the end of a processed block. The bug was discovered when
4300 processing data through a buffering memory BIO handing the data to a
4301 BASE64-decoding BIO. Bug fund and patch submitted by Pavel Tsekov
4302 <ptsekov@syntrex.com> and Nedelcho Stanev.
4303 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4304
4305 *) Implement a countermeasure against a vulnerability recently found
4306 in CBC ciphersuites in SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0: Send an empty fragment
4307 before application data chunks to avoid the use of known IVs
4308 with data potentially chosen by the attacker.
4309 [Bodo Moeller]
4310
4311 *) Fix length checks in ssl3_get_client_hello().
4312 [Bodo Moeller]
4313
4314 *) TLS/SSL library bugfix: use s->s3->in_read_app_data differently
4315 to prevent ssl3_read_internal() from incorrectly assuming that
4316 ssl3_read_bytes() found application data while handshake
4317 processing was enabled when in fact s->s3->in_read_app_data was
4318 merely automatically cleared during the initial handshake.
4319 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
4320
4321 *) Fix object definitions for Private and Enterprise: they were not
4322 recognized in their shortname (=lowercase) representation. Extend
4323 obj_dat.pl to issue an error when using undefined keywords instead
4324 of silently ignoring the problem (Svenning Sorensen
4325 <sss@sss.dnsalias.net>).
4326 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4327
4328 *) Fix DH_generate_parameters() so that it works for 'non-standard'
4329 generators, i.e. generators other than 2 and 5. (Previously, the
4330 code did not properly initialise the 'add' and 'rem' values to
4331 BN_generate_prime().)
4332
4333 In the new general case, we do not insist that 'generator' is
4334 actually a primitive root: This requirement is rather pointless;
4335 a generator of the order-q subgroup is just as good, if not
4336 better.
4337 [Bodo Moeller]
4338
4339 *) Map new X509 verification errors to alerts. Discovered and submitted by
4340 Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>.
4341 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4342
4343 *) Fix ssl3_pending() (ssl/s3_lib.c) to prevent SSL_pending() from
4344 returning non-zero before the data has been completely received
4345 when using non-blocking I/O.
4346 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by John Hughes]
4347
4348 *) Some of the ciphers missed the strength entry (SSL_LOW etc).
4349 [Ben Laurie, Lutz Jaenicke]
4350
4351 *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by
4352 Yoram Zahavi <YoramZ@gilian.com>).
4353 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4354
4355 *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper
4356 configuration for the versions before that.
4357 [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]
4358
4359 *) Make removal from session cache (SSL_CTX_remove_session()) more robust:
4360 check whether we deal with a copy of a session and do not delete from
4361 the cache in this case. Problem reported by "Izhar Shoshani Levi"
4362 <izhar@checkpoint.com>.
4363 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4364
4365 *) Do not store session data into the internal session cache, if it
4366 is never intended to be looked up (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP
4367 flag is set). Proposed by Aslam <aslam@funk.com>.
4368 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4369
4370 *) Have ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit() really clear a bit when the requested
4371 value is 0.
4372 [Richard Levitte]
4373
4374 *) [In 0.9.6d-engine release:]
4375 Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
4376 [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]
4377
4378 *) Add the configuration target linux-s390x.
4379 [Neale Ferguson <Neale.Ferguson@SoftwareAG-USA.com> via Richard Levitte]
4380
4381 *) The earlier bugfix for the SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C case of
4382 ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c) incorrectly used a local flag
4383 variable as an indication that a ClientHello message has been
4384 received. As the flag value will be lost between multiple
4385 invocations of ssl3_accept when using non-blocking I/O, the
4386 function may not be aware that a handshake has actually taken
4387 place, thus preventing a new session from being added to the
4388 session cache.
4389
4390 To avoid this problem, we now set s->new_session to 2 instead of
4391 using a local variable.
4392 [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]
4393
4394 *) Bugfix: Return -1 from ssl3_get_server_done (ssl3/s3_clnt.c)
4395 if the SSL_R_LENGTH_MISMATCH error is detected.
4396 [Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]
4397
4398 *) New 'shared_ldflag' column in Configure platform table.
4399 [Richard Levitte]
4400
4401 *) Fix EVP_CIPHER_mode macro.
4402 ["Dan S. Camper" <dan@bti.net>]
4403
4404 *) Fix ssl3_read_bytes (ssl/s3_pkt.c): To ignore messages of unknown
4405 type, we must throw them away by setting rr->length to 0.
4406 [D P Chang <dpc@qualys.com>]
4407
4408 Changes between 0.9.6b and 0.9.6c [21 dec 2001]
4409
4410 *) Fix BN_rand_range bug pointed out by Dominikus Scherkl
4411 <Dominikus.Scherkl@biodata.com>. (The previous implementation
4412 worked incorrectly for those cases where range = 10..._2 and
4413 3*range is two bits longer than range.)
4414 [Bodo Moeller]
4415
4416 *) Only add signing time to PKCS7 structures if it is not already
4417 present.
4418 [Steve Henson]
4419
4420 *) Fix crypto/objects/objects.h: "ld-ce" should be "id-ce",
4421 OBJ_ld_ce should be OBJ_id_ce.
4422 Also some ip-pda OIDs in crypto/objects/objects.txt were
4423 incorrect (cf. RFC 3039).
4424 [Matt Cooper, Frederic Giudicelli, Bodo Moeller]
4425
4426 *) Release CRYPTO_LOCK_DYNLOCK when CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid()
4427 returns early because it has nothing to do.
4428 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4429
4430 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4431 Fix mutex callback return values in crypto/engine/hw_ncipher.c.
4432 [Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4433
4434 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4435 Add support for Cryptographic Appliance's keyserver technology.
4436 (Use engine 'keyclient')
4437 [Cryptographic Appliances and Geoff Thorpe]
4438
4439 *) Add a configuration entry for OS/390 Unix. The C compiler 'c89'
4440 is called via tools/c89.sh because arguments have to be
4441 rearranged (all '-L' options must appear before the first object
4442 modules).
4443 [Richard Shapiro <rshapiro@abinitio.com>]
4444
4445 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4446 Add support for Broadcom crypto accelerator cards, backported
4447 from 0.9.7.
4448 [Broadcom, Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com>, Mark Cox]
4449
4450 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4451 Add support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from
4452 Baltimore Technologies. (Use engine 'sureware')
4453 [Baltimore Technologies and Mark Cox]
4454
4455 *) [In 0.9.6c-engine release:]
4456 Add support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated
4457 Encryption Processing, www.aep.ie. (Use engine 'aep')
4458 [AEP Inc. and Mark Cox]
4459
4460 *) Add a configuration entry for gcc on UnixWare.
4461 [Gary Benson <gbenson@redhat.com>]
4462
4463 *) Change ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s2_srvr.c so that received handshake
4464 messages are stored in a single piece (fixed-length part and
4465 variable-length part combined) and fix various bugs found on the way.
4466 [Bodo Moeller]
4467
4468 *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
4469 instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
4470 appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
4471 become invalid.
4472 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
4473
4474 *) Change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) behaviour when
4475 faced with a pathologically small ClientHello fragment that does
4476 not contain client_version: Instead of aborting with an error,
4477 simply choose the highest available protocol version (i.e.,
4478 TLS 1.0 unless it is disabled). In practice, ClientHello
4479 messages are never sent like this, but this change gives us
4480 strictly correct behaviour at least for TLS.
4481 [Bodo Moeller]
4482
4483 *) Fix SSL handshake functions and SSL_clear() such that SSL_clear()
4484 never resets s->method to s->ctx->method when called from within
4485 one of the SSL handshake functions.
4486 [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Niko Baric]
4487
4488 *) In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert
4489 (sent using the client's version number) if client_version is
4490 smaller than the protocol version in use. Also change
4491 ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0 if
4492 the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then
4493 the client will at least see that alert.
4494 [Bodo Moeller]
4495
4496 *) Fix ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) to handle message fragmentation
4497 correctly.
4498 [Bodo Moeller]
4499
4500 *) Avoid infinite loop in ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) if a
4501 client receives HelloRequest while in a handshake.
4502 [Bodo Moeller; bug noticed by Andy Schneider <andy.schneider@bjss.co.uk>]
4503
4504 *) Bugfix in ssl3_accept (ssl/s3_srvr.c): Case SSL3_ST_SW_HELLO_REQ_C
4505 should end in 'break', not 'goto end' which circuments various
4506 cleanups done in state SSL_ST_OK. But session related stuff
4507 must be disabled for SSL_ST_OK in the case that we just sent a
4508 HelloRequest.
4509
4510 Also avoid some overhead by not calling ssl_init_wbio_buffer()
4511 before just sending a HelloRequest.
4512 [Bodo Moeller, Eric Rescorla <ekr@rtfm.com>]
4513
4514 *) Fix ssl/s3_enc.c, ssl/t1_enc.c and ssl/s3_pkt.c so that we don't
4515 reveal whether illegal block cipher padding was found or a MAC
4516 verification error occured. (Neither SSLerr() codes nor alerts
4517 are directly visible to potential attackers, but the information
4518 may leak via logfiles.)
4519
4520 Similar changes are not required for the SSL 2.0 implementation
4521 because the number of padding bytes is sent in clear for SSL 2.0,
4522 and the extra bytes are just ignored. However ssl/s2_pkt.c
4523 failed to verify that the purported number of padding bytes is in
4524 the legal range.
4525 [Bodo Moeller]
4526
4527 *) Add OpenUNIX-8 support including shared libraries
4528 (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
4529 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4530
4531 *) Improve RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_OAEP() check again to avoid
4532 'wristwatch attack' using huge encoding parameters (cf.
4533 James H. Manger's CRYPTO 2001 paper). Note that the
4534 RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING case of RSA_private_decrypt() does not use
4535 encoding parameters and hence was not vulnerable.
4536 [Bodo Moeller]
4537
4538 *) BN_sqr() bug fix.
4539 [Ulf Möller, reported by Jim Ellis <jim.ellis@cavium.com>]
4540
4541 *) Rabin-Miller test analyses assume uniformly distributed witnesses,
4542 so use BN_pseudo_rand_range() instead of using BN_pseudo_rand()
4543 followed by modular reduction.
4544 [Bodo Moeller; pointed out by Adam Young <AYoung1@NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]
4545
4546 *) Add BN_pseudo_rand_range() with obvious functionality: BN_rand_range()
4547 equivalent based on BN_pseudo_rand() instead of BN_rand().
4548 [Bodo Moeller]
4549
4550 *) s3_srvr.c: allow sending of large client certificate lists (> 16 kB).
4551 This function was broken, as the check for a new client hello message
4552 to handle SGC did not allow these large messages.
4553 (Tracked down by "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.)
4554 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4555
4556 *) Add alert descriptions for TLSv1 to SSL_alert_desc_string[_long]().
4557 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4558
4559 *) Fix buggy behaviour of BIO_get_num_renegotiates() and BIO_ctrl()
4560 for BIO_C_GET_WRITE_BUF_SIZE ("Stephen Hinton" <shinton@netopia.com>).
4561 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4562
4563 *) Rework the configuration and shared library support for Tru64 Unix.
4564 The configuration part makes use of modern compiler features and
4565 still retains old compiler behavior for those that run older versions
4566 of the OS. The shared library support part includes a variant that
4567 uses the RPATH feature, and is available through the special
4568 configuration target "alpha-cc-rpath", which will never be selected
4569 automatically.
4570 [Tim Mooney <mooney@dogbert.cc.ndsu.NoDak.edu> via Richard Levitte]
4571
4572 *) In ssl3_get_key_exchange (ssl/s3_clnt.c), call ssl3_get_message()
4573 with the same message size as in ssl3_get_certificate_request().
4574 Otherwise, if no ServerKeyExchange message occurs, CertificateRequest
4575 messages might inadvertently be reject as too long.
4576 [Petr Lampa <lampa@fee.vutbr.cz>]
4577
4578 *) Enhanced support for IA-64 Unix platforms (well, Linux and HP-UX).
4579 [Andy Polyakov]
4580
4581 *) Modified SSL library such that the verify_callback that has been set
4582 specificly for an SSL object with SSL_set_verify() is actually being
4583 used. Before the change, a verify_callback set with this function was
4584 ignored and the verify_callback() set in the SSL_CTX at the time of
4585 the call was used. New function X509_STORE_CTX_set_verify_cb() introduced
4586 to allow the necessary settings.
4587 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4588
4589 *) Initialize static variable in crypto/dsa/dsa_lib.c and crypto/dh/dh_lib.c
4590 explicitly to NULL, as at least on Solaris 8 this seems not always to be
4591 done automatically (in contradiction to the requirements of the C
4592 standard). This made problems when used from OpenSSH.
4593 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4594
4595 *) In OpenSSL 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b, crypto/dh/dh_key.c ignored
4596 dh->length and always used
4597
4598 BN_rand_range(priv_key, dh->p).
4599
4600 BN_rand_range() is not necessary for Diffie-Hellman, and this
4601 specific range makes Diffie-Hellman unnecessarily inefficient if
4602 dh->length (recommended exponent length) is much smaller than the
4603 length of dh->p. We could use BN_rand_range() if the order of
4604 the subgroup was stored in the DH structure, but we only have
4605 dh->length.
4606
4607 So switch back to
4608
4609 BN_rand(priv_key, l, ...)
4610
4611 where 'l' is dh->length if this is defined, or BN_num_bits(dh->p)-1
4612 otherwise.
4613 [Bodo Moeller]
4614
4615 *) In
4616
4617 RSA_eay_public_encrypt
4618 RSA_eay_private_decrypt
4619 RSA_eay_private_encrypt (signing)
4620 RSA_eay_public_decrypt (signature verification)
4621
4622 (default implementations for RSA_public_encrypt,
4623 RSA_private_decrypt, RSA_private_encrypt, RSA_public_decrypt),
4624 always reject numbers >= n.
4625 [Bodo Moeller]
4626
4627 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, use a new short-time lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND2
4628 to synchronize access to 'locking_thread'. This is necessary on
4629 systems where access to 'locking_thread' (an 'unsigned long'
4630 variable) is not atomic.
4631 [Bodo Moeller]
4632
4633 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, set 'locking_thread' to current thread's ID
4634 *before* setting the 'crypto_lock_rand' flag. The previous code had
4635 a race condition if 0 is a valid thread ID.
4636 [Travis Vitek <vitek@roguewave.com>]
4637
4638 *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
4639 [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
4640
4641 *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
4642 little-endian MIPS.
4643 [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
4644
4645 *) Add the possibility to create shared libraries on HP-UX.
4646 [Richard Levitte]
4647
4648 Changes between 0.9.6a and 0.9.6b [9 Jul 2001]
4649
4650 *) Change ssleay_rand_bytes (crypto/rand/md_rand.c)
4651 to avoid a SSLeay/OpenSSL PRNG weakness pointed out by
4652 Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen <markku-juhani.saarinen@nokia.com>:
4653 PRNG state recovery was possible based on the output of
4654 one PRNG request appropriately sized to gain knowledge on
4655 'md' followed by enough consecutive 1-byte PRNG requests
4656 to traverse all of 'state'.
4657
4658 1. When updating 'md_local' (the current thread's copy of 'md')
4659 during PRNG output generation, hash all of the previous
4660 'md_local' value, not just the half used for PRNG output.
4661
4662 2. Make the number of bytes from 'state' included into the hash
4663 independent from the number of PRNG bytes requested.
4664
4665 The first measure alone would be sufficient to avoid
4666 Markku-Juhani's attack. (Actually it had never occurred
4667 to me that the half of 'md_local' used for chaining was the
4668 half from which PRNG output bytes were taken -- I had always
4669 assumed that the secret half would be used.) The second
4670 measure makes sure that additional data from 'state' is never
4671 mixed into 'md_local' in small portions; this heuristically
4672 further strengthens the PRNG.
4673 [Bodo Moeller]
4674
4675 *) Fix crypto/bn/asm/mips3.s.
4676 [Andy Polyakov]
4677
4678 *) When only the key is given to "enc", the IV is undefined. Print out
4679 an error message in this case.
4680 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4681
4682 *) Handle special case when X509_NAME is empty in X509 printing routines.
4683 [Steve Henson]
4684
4685 *) In dsa_do_verify (crypto/dsa/dsa_ossl.c), verify that r and s are
4686 positive and less than q.
4687 [Bodo Moeller]
4688
4689 *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
4690 used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
4691 that itself.
4692 [Paul Rose <Paul.Rose@bridge.com>]
4693
4694 *) Verify that incoming data obeys the block size in
4695 ssl3_enc (ssl/s3_enc.c) and tls1_enc (ssl/t1_enc.c).
4696 [Bodo Moeller]
4697
4698 *) Fix OAEP check.
4699 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
4700
4701 *) The countermeasure against Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5
4702 RSA encryption was accidentally removed in s3_srvr.c in OpenSSL 0.9.5
4703 when fixing the server behaviour for backwards-compatible 'client
4704 hello' messages. (Note that the attack is impractical against
4705 SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0 anyway because length and version checking
4706 means that the probability of guessing a valid ciphertext is
4707 around 2^-40; see section 5 in Bleichenbacher's CRYPTO '98
4708 paper.)
4709
4710 Before 0.9.5, the countermeasure (hide the error by generating a
4711 random 'decryption result') did not work properly because
4712 ERR_clear_error() was missing, meaning that SSL_get_error() would
4713 detect the supposedly ignored error.
4714
4715 Both problems are now fixed.
4716 [Bodo Moeller]
4717
4718 *) In crypto/bio/bf_buff.c, increase DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE to 4096
4719 (previously it was 1024).
4720 [Bodo Moeller]
4721
4722 *) Fix for compatibility mode trust settings: ignore trust settings
4723 unless some valid trust or reject settings are present.
4724 [Steve Henson]
4725
4726 *) Fix for blowfish EVP: its a variable length cipher.
4727 [Steve Henson]
4728
4729 *) Fix various bugs related to DSA S/MIME verification. Handle missing
4730 parameters in DSA public key structures and return an error in the
4731 DSA routines if parameters are absent.
4732 [Steve Henson]
4733
4734 *) In versions up to 0.9.6, RAND_file_name() resorted to file ".rnd"
4735 in the current directory if neither $RANDFILE nor $HOME was set.
4736 RAND_file_name() in 0.9.6a returned NULL in this case. This has
4737 caused some confusion to Windows users who haven't defined $HOME.
4738 Thus RAND_file_name() is changed again: e_os.h can define a
4739 DEFAULT_HOME, which will be used if $HOME is not set.
4740 For Windows, we use "C:"; on other platforms, we still require
4741 environment variables.
4742
4743 *) Move 'if (!initialized) RAND_poll()' into regions protected by
4744 CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND. This is not strictly necessary, but avoids
4745 having multiple threads call RAND_poll() concurrently.
4746 [Bodo Moeller]
4747
4748 *) In crypto/rand/md_rand.c, replace 'add_do_not_lock' flag by a
4749 combination of a flag and a thread ID variable.
4750 Otherwise while one thread is in ssleay_rand_bytes (which sets the
4751 flag), *other* threads can enter ssleay_add_bytes without obeying
4752 the CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND lock (and may even illegally release the lock
4753 that they do not hold after the first thread unsets add_do_not_lock).
4754 [Bodo Moeller]
4755
4756 *) Change bctest again: '-x' expressions are not available in all
4757 versions of 'test'.
4758 [Bodo Moeller]
4759
4760 Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [5 Apr 2001]
4761
4762 *) Fix a couple of memory leaks in PKCS7_dataDecode()
4763 [Steve Henson, reported by Heyun Zheng <hzheng@atdsprint.com>]
4764
4765 *) Change Configure and Makefiles to provide EXE_EXT, which will contain
4766 the default extension for executables, if any. Also, make the perl
4767 scripts that use symlink() to test if it really exists and use "cp"
4768 if it doesn't. All this made OpenSSL compilable and installable in
4769 CygWin.
4770 [Richard Levitte]
4771
4772 *) Fix for asn1_GetSequence() for indefinite length constructed data.
4773 If SEQUENCE is length is indefinite just set c->slen to the total
4774 amount of data available.
4775 [Steve Henson, reported by shige@FreeBSD.org]
4776 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4777
4778 *) Change bctest to avoid here-documents inside command substitution
4779 (workaround for FreeBSD /bin/sh bug).
4780 For compatibility with Ultrix, avoid shell functions (introduced
4781 in the bctest version that searches along $PATH).
4782 [Bodo Moeller]
4783
4784 *) Rename 'des_encrypt' to 'des_encrypt1'. This avoids the clashes
4785 with des_encrypt() defined on some operating systems, like Solaris
4786 and UnixWare.
4787 [Richard Levitte]
4788
4789 *) Check the result of RSA-CRT (see D. Boneh, R. DeMillo, R. Lipton:
4790 On the Importance of Eliminating Errors in Cryptographic
4791 Computations, J. Cryptology 14 (2001) 2, 101-119,
4792 http://theory.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/faults.ps.gz).
4793 [Ulf Moeller]
4794
4795 *) MIPS assembler BIGNUM division bug fix.
4796 [Andy Polyakov]
4797
4798 *) Disabled incorrect Alpha assembler code.
4799 [Richard Levitte]
4800
4801 *) Fix PKCS#7 decode routines so they correctly update the length
4802 after reading an EOC for the EXPLICIT tag.
4803 [Steve Henson]
4804 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4805
4806 *) Fix bug in PKCS#12 key generation routines. This was triggered
4807 if a 3DES key was generated with a 0 initial byte. Include
4808 PKCS12_BROKEN_KEYGEN compilation option to retain the old
4809 (but broken) behaviour.
4810 [Steve Henson]
4811
4812 *) Enhance bctest to search for a working bc along $PATH and print
4813 it when found.
4814 [Tim Rice <tim@multitalents.net> via Richard Levitte]
4815
4816 *) Fix memory leaks in err.c: free err_data string if necessary;
4817 don't write to the wrong index in ERR_set_error_data.
4818 [Bodo Moeller]
4819
4820 *) Implement ssl23_peek (analogous to ssl23_read), which previously
4821 did not exist.
4822 [Bodo Moeller]
4823
4824 *) Replace rdtsc with _emit statements for VC++ version 5.
4825 [Jeremy Cooper <jeremy@baymoo.org>]
4826
4827 *) Make it possible to reuse SSLv2 sessions.
4828 [Richard Levitte]
4829
4830 *) In copy_email() check for >= 0 as a return value for
4831 X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() since 0 is a valid index.
4832 [Steve Henson reported by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@opensca.org>]
4833
4834 *) Avoid coredump with unsupported or invalid public keys by checking if
4835 X509_get_pubkey() fails in PKCS7_verify(). Fix memory leak when
4836 PKCS7_verify() fails with non detached data.
4837 [Steve Henson]
4838
4839 *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid.
4840 New function OPENSSL_issetugid().
4841 [Ulf Moeller]
4842
4843 *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c)
4844 due to incorrect handling of multi-threading:
4845
4846 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl().
4847
4848 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on().
4849
4850 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that
4851 nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids
4852 inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the
4853 assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible).
4854 [Bodo Moeller]
4855
4856 *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server.
4857 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4858
4859 *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.
4860 [Kurt Hockenbury <khockenb@stevens-tech.edu> and
4861 "Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4862
4863 *) Fix X509_NAME bug which produced incorrect encoding if X509_NAME
4864 was empty.
4865 [Steve Henson]
4866 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4867
4868 *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
4869 copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
4870 but the code is actually correct.
4871 [Steve Henson]
4872
4873 *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
4874 Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
4875 Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits
4876 to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new
4877 and leaves the highest bit random.
4878 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
4879
4880 *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
4881 (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
4882 a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
4883 (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
4884 Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
4885 CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
4886 return NULL from CONF_get_section.
4887 [Bodo Moeller]
4888
4889 *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
4890 [Ulf Moeller]
4891
4892 *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
4893 keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
4894 [Steve Henson]
4895
4896 *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
4897 is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
4898 some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
4899 sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
4900 headers.
4901 [Richard Levitte]
4902
4903 *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
4904 macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
4905 and break the signature.
4906 [Steve Henson]
4907 [This change does not apply to 0.9.7.]
4908
4909 *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
4910 DH ciphersuites.
4911 [Steve Henson]
4912
4913 *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
4914 OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
4915 aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
4916 compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
4917 with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
4918 [Bodo Moeller]
4919
4920 *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
4921 ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
4922
4923 *) ./config script fixes.
4924 [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
4925
4926 *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
4927 [Bodo Moeller]
4928
4929 *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
4930 terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
4931 parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
4932 by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
4933 [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
4934
4935 *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
4936 call failed, free the DSA structure.
4937 [Bodo Moeller]
4938
4939 *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
4940 These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
4941 [Steve Henson]
4942
4943 *) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
4944 Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
4945 when writing a 32767 byte record.
4946 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
4947
4948 *) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
4949 obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
4950
4951 (RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
4952 by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
4953 so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
4954 [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
4955 "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
4956
4957 *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
4958 [Bodo Moeller]
4959
4960 *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
4961 [Ulf Möller]
4962
4963 *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
4964 [Ulf Möller]
4965
4966 *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
4967 [Bodo Moeller]
4968
4969 *) Add a 'bctest' script that checks for some known 'bc' bugs
4970 so that 'make test' does not abort just because 'bc' is broken.
4971 [Bodo Moeller]
4972
4973 *) Store verify_result within SSL_SESSION also for client side to
4974 avoid potential security hole. (Re-used sessions on the client side
4975 always resulted in verify_result==X509_V_OK, not using the original
4976 result of the server certificate verification.)
4977 [Lutz Jaenicke]
4978
4979 *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
4980 SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
4981 Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
4982 [Bodo Moeller]
4983
4984 *) Fix SSL_peek:
4985 Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
4986 releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
4987 implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
4988 and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
4989 to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
4990 ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
4991 A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
4992 does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
4993 [Bodo Moeller]
4994
4995 *) Initialise "ex_data" member of RSA/DSA/DH structures prior to calling
4996 the method-specific "init()" handler. Also clean up ex_data after
4997 calling the method-specific "finish()" handler. Previously, this was
4998 happening the other way round.
4999 [Geoff Thorpe]
5000
5001 *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
5002 The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
5003 [Bodo Moeller]
5004
5005 *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
5006 the full version number and not just 0. This should mark the
5007 shared libraries as not backward compatible. Of course, this should
5008 be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
5009 [Richard Levitte]
5010
5011 *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
5012 [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
5013
5014 *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
5015
5016 - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
5017 if there is a need for symbolic links from for example libcrypto.so.0
5018 to libcrypto.so.0.9.7. There is extended info in Configure for
5019 that.
5020
5021 - Make as few rebuilds of the shared libraries as possible.
5022
5023 - Still avoid linking the OpenSSL programs with the shared libraries.
5024
5025 - When installing, install the shared libraries separately from the
5026 static ones.
5027 [Richard Levitte]
5028
5029 *) Fix SSL_CTX_set_read_ahead macro to actually use its argument.
5030
5031 Copy SSL_CTX's read_ahead flag to SSL object directly in SSL_new
5032 and not in SSL_clear because the latter is also used by the
5033 accept/connect functions; previously, the settings made by
5034 SSL_set_read_ahead would be lost during the handshake.
5035 [Bodo Moeller; problems reported by Anders Gertz <gertz@epact.se>]
5036
5037 *) Correct util/mkdef.pl to be selective about disabled algorithms.
5038 Previously, it would create entries for disableed algorithms no
5039 matter what.
5040 [Richard Levitte]
5041
5042 *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.
5043 [Lutz Jaenicke]
5044
5045 Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
5046
5047 *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
5048 with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
5049 first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
5050 (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
5051 in real life.) The previous approach was to use the version number
5052 from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
5053 should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
5054 by the Finished messages.
5055 [Bodo Moeller]
5056
5057 *) More robust randomness gathering functions for Windows.
5058 [Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>]
5059
5060 *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
5061 not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
5062 to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
5063 handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
5064 what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
5065 appropriately.
5066 [Steve Henson]
5067
5068 *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
5069 a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
5070 including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
5071 wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
5072 counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
5073 tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
5074 that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
5075 "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
5076 case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
5077 together.
5078 [Steve Henson]
5079
5080 *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
5081 in a record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will
5082 write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
5083 programs trying to read from it. This can be very confusing.
5084
5085 The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
5086 text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
5087 line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
5088 not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
5089 seen it once) several lines in one record. BIO_f_linebuffer() is
5090 the answer.
5091
5092 Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
5093 been tested well enough.
5094 [Richard Levitte]
5095
5096 *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
5097 it can return incorrect results.
5098 (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
5099 but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
5100 [Bodo Moeller]
5101
5102 *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
5103 signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
5104 include zero length content when signing messages.
5105 [Steve Henson]
5106
5107 *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
5108 BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
5109 [Bodo Möller]
5110
5111 *) Add DSO method for VMS.
5112 [Richard Levitte]
5113
5114 *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
5115 wrong sign.
5116 [Ulf Möller]
5117
5118 *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
5119 packages. The default package contains applications, application
5120 documentation and run-time libraries. The devel package contains
5121 include files, static libraries and function documentation. The
5122 doc package contains the contents of the doc directory. The original
5123 openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
5124 [Richard Levitte]
5125
5126 *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
5127 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
5128
5129 *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
5130 [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
5131
5132 *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
5133 random number < q in the DSA library.
5134 [Ulf Möller]
5135
5136 *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'. This disables the default
5137 behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
5138 the underlying transport is blocking) if a handshake took place.
5139 (The default behaviour is needed by applications such as s_client
5140 and s_server that use select() to determine when to use SSL_read;
5141 but for applications that know in advance when to expect data, it
5142 just makes things more complicated.)
5143 [Bodo Moeller]
5144
5145 *) Add RAND_egd_bytes(), which gives control over the number of bytes read
5146 from EGD.
5147 [Ben Laurie]
5148
5149 *) Add a few more EBCDIC conditionals that make `req' and `x509'
5150 work better on such systems.
5151 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
5152
5153 *) Add two demo programs for PKCS12_parse() and PKCS12_create().
5154 Update PKCS12_parse() so it copies the friendlyName and the
5155 keyid to the certificates aux info.
5156 [Steve Henson]
5157
5158 *) Fix bug in PKCS7_verify() which caused an infinite loop
5159 if there was more than one signature.
5160 [Sven Uszpelkat <su@celocom.de>]
5161
5162 *) Major change in util/mkdef.pl to include extra information
5163 about each symbol, as well as presentig variables as well
5164 as functions. This change means that there's n more need
5165 to rebuild the .num files when some algorithms are excluded.
5166 [Richard Levitte]
5167
5168 *) Allow the verify time to be set by an application,
5169 rather than always using the current time.
5170 [Steve Henson]
5171
5172 *) Phase 2 verify code reorganisation. The certificate
5173 verify code now looks up an issuer certificate by a
5174 number of criteria: subject name, authority key id
5175 and key usage. It also verifies self signed certificates
5176 by the same criteria. The main comparison function is
5177 X509_check_issued() which performs these checks.
5178
5179 Lot of changes were necessary in order to support this
5180 without completely rewriting the lookup code.
5181
5182 Authority and subject key identifier are now cached.
5183
5184 The LHASH 'certs' is X509_STORE has now been replaced
5185 by a STACK_OF(X509_OBJECT). This is mainly because an
5186 LHASH can't store or retrieve multiple objects with
5187 the same hash value.
5188
5189 As a result various functions (which were all internal
5190 use only) have changed to handle the new X509_STORE
5191 structure. This will break anything that messed round
5192 with X509_STORE internally.
5193
5194 The functions X509_STORE_add_cert() now checks for an
5195 exact match, rather than just subject name.
5196
5197 The X509_STORE API doesn't directly support the retrieval
5198 of multiple certificates matching a given criteria, however
5199 this can be worked round by performing a lookup first
5200 (which will fill the cache with candidate certificates)
5201 and then examining the cache for matches. This is probably
5202 the best we can do without throwing out X509_LOOKUP
5203 entirely (maybe later...).
5204
5205 The X509_VERIFY_CTX structure has been enhanced considerably.
5206
5207 All certificate lookup operations now go via a get_issuer()
5208 callback. Although this currently uses an X509_STORE it
5209 can be replaced by custom lookups. This is a simple way
5210 to bypass the X509_STORE hackery necessary to make this
5211 work and makes it possible to use more efficient techniques
5212 in future. A very simple version which uses a simple
5213 STACK for its trusted certificate store is also provided
5214 using X509_STORE_CTX_trusted_stack().
5215
5216 The verify_cb() and verify() callbacks now have equivalents
5217 in the X509_STORE_CTX structure.
5218
5219 X509_STORE_CTX also has a 'flags' field which can be used
5220 to customise the verify behaviour.
5221 [Steve Henson]
5222
5223 *) Add new PKCS#7 signing option PKCS7_NOSMIMECAP which
5224 excludes S/MIME capabilities.
5225 [Steve Henson]
5226
5227 *) When a certificate request is read in keep a copy of the
5228 original encoding of the signed data and use it when outputing
5229 again. Signatures then use the original encoding rather than
5230 a decoded, encoded version which may cause problems if the
5231 request is improperly encoded.
5232 [Steve Henson]
5233
5234 *) For consistency with other BIO_puts implementations, call
5235 buffer_write(b, ...) directly in buffer_puts instead of calling
5236 BIO_write(b, ...).
5237
5238 In BIO_puts, increment b->num_write as in BIO_write.
5239 [Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr]
5240
5241 *) Fix BN_mul_word for the case where the word is 0. (We have to use
5242 BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of
5243 words set to zero.)
5244 [Bodo Moeller]
5245
5246 *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are
5247 detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined
5248 (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.).
5249 [Bodo Moeller]
5250
5251 *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be
5252 used for low level RSA operations. DER public key
5253 BIO/fp routines also added.
5254 [Steve Henson]
5255
5256 *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4.
5257 [Andreas Schneider <andreas@ds3.etech.fh-hamburg.de>]
5258
5259 *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by
5260 Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in
5261 demos/state_machine.
5262 [Ben Laurie]
5263
5264 *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature
5265 generation and verification.
5266 [Steve Henson]
5267
5268 *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a
5269 catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported
5270 types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can
5271 encode and decode it manually.
5272 [Steve Henson]
5273
5274 *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c
5275 compile under VC++.
5276 [Oscar Jacobsson <oscar.jacobsson@celocom.com>]
5277
5278 *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct
5279 length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed
5280 if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative.
5281 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg <sven@tartu.cyber.ee>]
5282
5283 *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite
5284 length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in
5285 memory there's not real point in using indefinite length
5286 constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with
5287 the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used.
5288 [Steve Henson]
5289
5290 *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf().
5291 [Richard Levitte]
5292
5293 *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
5294 through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
5295 through syslog. The prefixes are now:
5296
5297 PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG
5298 ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT
5299 CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT
5300 ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR
5301 WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING
5302 NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE
5303 INFO, INF => LOG_INFO
5304 DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG
5305
5306 and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
5307 beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
5308
5309 On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
5310
5311 LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
5312 LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
5313 LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
5314
5315 [Richard Levitte]
5316
5317 *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
5318 argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments
5319 are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
5320 and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring.
5321 [Richard Levitte]
5322
5323 *) MD4 implemented.
5324 [Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>, Richard Levitte]
5325
5326 *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility.
5327 [Richard Levitte]
5328
5329 *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object
5330 names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version
5331 of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because
5332 " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of
5333 names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some
5334 names from the lookup table if they were given a default
5335 value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same
5336 value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the
5337 grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to
5338 look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate
5339 short or long names are found.
5340 [Steve Henson]
5341
5342 *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK.
5343 [Scott Uroff <scott@xypro.com>]
5344
5345 *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in
5346 RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected
5347 and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol
5348 version rollback attacks was not effective.
5349
5350 In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding
5351 (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the
5352 client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if
5353 SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server.
5354 [Bodo Moeller]
5355
5356 *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl
5357 asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and
5358 BIO_dump_indent() are added.
5359 [Richard Levitte]
5360
5361 *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex()
5362 these print out strings and name structures based on various
5363 flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of
5364 multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility
5365 to allow the various flags to be set.
5366 [Steve Henson]
5367
5368 *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME.
5369 Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and
5370 X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure,
5371 this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity
5372 dates to be checked.
5373 [Steve Henson]
5374
5375 *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid
5376 negative public key encodings) on by default,
5377 NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it.
5378 [Steve Henson]
5379
5380 *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT
5381 content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because
5382 the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure.
5383 [Steve Henson]
5384
5385 *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
5386 not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
5387 [Bodo Moeller]
5388
5389 *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
5390 libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the
5391 default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
5392 are always statically linked for now, but there are
5393 preparations for dynamic linking in place.
5394 This has been tested on Linux and Tru64.
5395 [Richard Levitte]
5396
5397 *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
5398 Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
5399 Random Numbers.
5400 [Ulf Möller]
5401
5402 *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
5403 DSA key.
5404 [Steve Henson]
5405
5406 *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
5407 allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
5408 PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
5409 specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
5410 form signing output easier to verify.
5411 [Steve Henson]
5412
5413 *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
5414 [Steve Henson]
5415
5416 *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
5417 STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
5418 underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
5419 already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
5420 are needed because all other string types have virtually
5421 identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
5422 of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
5423 IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
5424 the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
5425 and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
5426 [Steve Henson]
5427
5428 *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
5429
5430 - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
5431 the syntax given in objects.README.
5432 - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
5433 obj_mac.h.
5434 - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
5435 obj_mac.h.
5436
5437 This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
5438 isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way
5439 to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
5440 check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
5441 around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as
5442 consistent name changes.
5443 [Richard Levitte]
5444
5445 *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
5446 [Bodo Moeller]
5447
5448 *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
5449 The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
5450 random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
5451 environment variable, or the default random state file.
5452 [Richard Levitte]
5453
5454 *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
5455 Previously the output order depended on the order the files
5456 appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
5457 of safestack.h .
5458 [Steve Henson]
5459
5460 *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
5461 work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
5462 func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
5463 added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
5464 [Steve Henson]
5465
5466 *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all
5467 collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
5468 a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The
5469 DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
5470 this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
5471 use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
5472 then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
5473 mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
5474 if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
5475 the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
5476 and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
5477 [Steve Henson]
5478
5479 *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
5480 key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
5481 used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
5482 MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some
5483 new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same
5484 as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional
5485 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added
5486 an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to
5487 Adrian Peck <bertie@ncipher.com> for posting details of the modified
5488 algorithm to openssl-dev.
5489 [Steve Henson]
5490
5491 *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in
5492 invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example).
5493 Corrected to 'c.kname'.
5494 [Phillip Porch <root@theporch.com>]
5495
5496 *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return
5497 a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look
5498 in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and
5499 omit any duplicate addresses.
5500 [Steve Henson]
5501
5502 *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows.
5503 This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster.
5504 [Bodo Moeller]
5505
5506 *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5
5507 (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB
5508 plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli).
5509 This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit
5510 exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048").
5511 [Bodo Moeller]
5512
5513 *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other
5514 software:
5515 Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc
5516 Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked
5517 Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc
5518 Free => OPENSSL_free
5519 [Richard Levitte]
5520
5521 *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15%
5522 faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange).
5523 [Bodo Moeller]
5524
5525 *) CygWin32 support.
5526 [John Jarvie <jjarvie@newsguy.com>]
5527
5528 *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled
5529 in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and
5530 by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to
5531 standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output
5532 but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original
5533 approach.
5534 [Geoff Thorpe]
5535
5536 *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations
5537 that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has
5538 also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly
5539 map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts.
5540 This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of
5541 lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally
5542 be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway.
5543 [Geoff Thorpe]
5544
5545 *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool'
5546 by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count).
5547 (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md',
5548 where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state'
5549 is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be
5550 well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a
5551 chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half
5552 of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains
5553 all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result
5554 in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending
5555 on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.)
5556 [Bodo Moeller]
5557
5558 *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when
5559 the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain();
5560 otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes
5561 can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later.
5562 [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke]
5563
5564 *) Major EVP API cipher revision.
5565 Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher
5566 parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable
5567 key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and
5568 setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters.
5569
5570 Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length
5571 ciphers.
5572
5573 Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every*
5574 cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the
5575 cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and
5576 for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num.
5577
5578 New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack.
5579
5580 Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms
5581 of macros.
5582
5583 By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from
5584 all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys
5585 differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT
5586 flags.
5587
5588 Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a
5589 value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail
5590 any installed hardware versions can.
5591 [Steve Henson]
5592
5593 *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if
5594 this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated
5595 protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version
5596 number.
5597 [Bodo Moeller]
5598
5599 *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag;
5600 i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise.
5601 Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with
5602 rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB).
5603 [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra]
5604
5605 *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS
5606 key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding.
5607 [Steve Henson]
5608
5609 *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards
5610 and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL.
5611 [Richard Levitte]
5612
5613 *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates
5614 with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all.
5615 Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash
5616 features.
5617 [Steve Henson]
5618
5619 *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h.
5620 [Ulf Möller]
5621
5622 *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was
5623 rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present
5624 but no ssl client purpose.
5625 [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser <grosser@hisolutions.com>]
5626
5627 *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec
5628 is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled.
5629 Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating
5630 double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the
5631 double NULL. However no password at all is different and is
5632 handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS
5633 treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no
5634 password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do
5635 the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if
5636 the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password:
5637 it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application.
5638 [Steve Henson]
5639
5640 *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use
5641 perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must
5642 be obtained from the error queue.
5643 [Bodo Moeller]
5644
5645 *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing
5646 it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state
5647 accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because
5648 thread_hash is no longer constant once set).
5649 [Bodo Moeller]
5650
5651 *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one.
5652 [Ulf Möller]
5653
5654 *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default
5655 RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already.
5656 Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new()
5657 or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for
5658 RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL.
5659 [Geoff Thorpe]
5660
5661 *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code
5662 that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames
5663 that are sufficiently small and have no path information
5664 into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to
5665 "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc.
5666 [Geoff Thorpe]
5667
5668 *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like
5669 ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes
5670 including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf'
5671 may not be NULL.
5672 [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>, Bodo Moeller]
5673
5674 *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF
5675 configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a
5676 new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now
5677 old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to
5678 work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions
5679 to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is
5680 provided to make it easier to write new configuration file
5681 reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a
5682 configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*,
5683 or "the configuration storage API"...
5684
5685 The new configuration file reading functions are:
5686
5687 NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio,
5688 NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre
5689
5690 NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32
5691
5692 NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio
5693
5694 NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers,
5695 NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way
5696 as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface.
5697 NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file,
5698 which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same
5699 arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the
5700 first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'.
5701
5702 To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions,
5703 the function CONF_set_default_method is provided.
5704 [Richard Levitte]
5705
5706 *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already
5707 mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented.
5708 (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional
5709 experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.)
5710 [Bodo Moeller]
5711
5712 *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and
5713 OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to
5714 them in a portable way.
5715 [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte]
5716
5717 Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000]
5718
5719 *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC.
5720
5721 *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status
5722 (the default implementation of RAND_status).
5723
5724 *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5,
5725 to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented.
5726 [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili
5727 <attili@amaxo.com>]
5728
5729 *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length
5730 was larger than the MD block size.
5731 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William <YostW@tce.com>]
5732
5733 *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument
5734 fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set()
5735 using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result
5736 of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key
5737 components.
5738 [Steve Henson]
5739
5740 *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix.
5741 [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where
5742 the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear <shadow@DEMENTIA.ORG>]
5743
5744 *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly
5745 discouraged.
5746 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver <briank@cs.stanford.edu>]
5747
5748 *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command
5749 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX'
5750 returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available.
5751 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases,
5752 the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr.
5753 Additional arguments are always ignored.
5754
5755 Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name,
5756 the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way.
5757
5758 ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such
5759 as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.)
5760 [Bodo Moeller]
5761
5762 *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration.
5763 [Bodo Moeller]
5764
5765 *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE
5766 is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates
5767 its own key.
5768 ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition
5769 to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the
5770 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining
5771 you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro.
5772 [Bodo Moeller]
5773
5774 *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and
5775 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate).
5776 This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof
5777 does not suppress any output.
5778 [Richard Levitte]
5779
5780 *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code. The
5781 purpose X509_PURPOSE_ANY is "any purpose" which automatically
5782 accepts a certificate or CA, this was the previous behaviour,
5783 with all the associated security issues.
5784
5785 X509_TRUST_COMPAT is the old trust behaviour: only and
5786 automatically trust self signed roots in certificate store. A
5787 new trust setting X509_TRUST_DEFAULT is used to specify that
5788 a purpose has no associated trust setting and it should instead
5789 use the value in the default purpose.
5790 [Steve Henson]
5791
5792 *) Fix the PKCS#8 DSA private key code so it decodes keys again
5793 and fix a memory leak.
5794 [Steve Henson]
5795
5796 *) In util/mkerr.pl (which implements 'make errors'), preserve
5797 reason strings from the previous version of the .c file, as
5798 the default to have only downcase letters (and digits) in
5799 automatically generated reasons codes is not always appropriate.
5800 [Bodo Moeller]
5801
5802 *) In ERR_load_ERR_strings(), build an ERR_LIB_SYS error reason table
5803 using strerror. Previously, ERR_reason_error_string() returned
5804 library names as reason strings for SYSerr; but SYSerr is a special
5805 case where small numbers are errno values, not library numbers.
5806 [Bodo Moeller]
5807
5808 *) Add '-dsaparam' option to 'openssl dhparam' application. This
5809 converts DSA parameters into DH parameters. (When creating parameters,
5810 DSA_generate_parameters is used.)
5811 [Bodo Moeller]
5812
5813 *) Include 'length' (recommended exponent length) in C code generated
5814 by 'openssl dhparam -C'.
5815 [Bodo Moeller]
5816
5817 *) The second argument to set_label in perlasm was already being used
5818 so couldn't be used as a "file scope" flag. Moved to third argument
5819 which was free.
5820 [Steve Henson]
5821
5822 *) In PEM_ASN1_write_bio and some other functions, use RAND_pseudo_bytes
5823 instead of RAND_bytes for encryption IVs and salts.
5824 [Bodo Moeller]
5825
5826 *) Include RAND_status() into RAND_METHOD instead of implementing
5827 it only for md_rand.c Otherwise replacing the PRNG by calling
5828 RAND_set_rand_method would be impossible.
5829 [Bodo Moeller]
5830
5831 *) Don't let DSA_generate_key() enter an infinite loop if the random
5832 number generation fails.
5833 [Bodo Moeller]
5834
5835 *) New 'rand' application for creating pseudo-random output.
5836 [Bodo Moeller]
5837
5838 *) Added configuration support for Linux/IA64
5839 [Rolf Haberrecker <rolf@suse.de>]
5840
5841 *) Assembler module support for Mingw32.
5842 [Ulf Möller]
5843
5844 *) Shared library support for HPUX (in shlib/).
5845 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE> and Anonymous]
5846
5847 *) Shared library support for Solaris gcc.
5848 [Lutz Behnke <behnke@trustcenter.de>]
5849
5850 Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [28 Feb 2000]
5851
5852 *) PKCS7_encrypt() was adding text MIME headers twice because they
5853 were added manually and by SMIME_crlf_copy().
5854 [Steve Henson]
5855
5856 *) In bntest.c don't call BN_rand with zero bits argument.
5857 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Andrew W. Gray <agray@iconsinc.com>]
5858
5859 *) BN_mul bugfix: In bn_mul_part_recursion() only the a>a[n] && b>b[n]
5860 case was implemented. This caused BN_div_recp() to fail occasionally.
5861 [Ulf Möller]
5862
5863 *) Add an optional second argument to the set_label() in the perl
5864 assembly language builder. If this argument exists and is set
5865 to 1 it signals that the assembler should use a symbol whose
5866 scope is the entire file, not just the current function. This
5867 is needed with MASM which uses the format label:: for this scope.
5868 [Steve Henson, pointed out by Peter Runestig <peter@runestig.com>]
5869
5870 *) Change the ASN1 types so they are typedefs by default. Before
5871 almost all types were #define'd to ASN1_STRING which was causing
5872 STACK_OF() problems: you couldn't declare STACK_OF(ASN1_UTF8STRING)
5873 for example.
5874 [Steve Henson]
5875
5876 *) Change names of new functions to the new get1/get0 naming
5877 convention: After 'get1', the caller owns a reference count
5878 and has to call ..._free; 'get0' returns a pointer to some
5879 data structure without incrementing reference counters.
5880 (Some of the existing 'get' functions increment a reference
5881 counter, some don't.)
5882 Similarly, 'set1' and 'add1' functions increase reference
5883 counters or duplicate objects.
5884 [Steve Henson]
5885
5886 *) Allow for the possibility of temp RSA key generation failure:
5887 the code used to assume it always worked and crashed on failure.
5888 [Steve Henson]
5889
5890 *) Fix potential buffer overrun problem in BIO_printf().
5891 [Ulf Möller, using public domain code by Patrick Powell; problem
5892 pointed out by David Sacerdote <das33@cornell.edu>]
5893
5894 *) Support EGD <http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/>. New functions
5895 RAND_egd() and RAND_status(). In the command line application,
5896 the EGD socket can be specified like a seed file using RANDFILE
5897 or -rand.
5898 [Ulf Möller]
5899
5900 *) Allow the string CERTIFICATE to be tolerated in PKCS#7 structures.
5901 Some CAs (e.g. Verisign) distribute certificates in this form.
5902 [Steve Henson]
5903
5904 *) Remove the SSL_ALLOW_ADH compile option and set the default cipher
5905 list to exclude them. This means that no special compilation option
5906 is needed to use anonymous DH: it just needs to be included in the
5907 cipher list.
5908 [Steve Henson]
5909
5910 *) Change the EVP_MD_CTX_type macro so its meaning consistent with
5911 EVP_MD_type. The old functionality is available in a new macro called
5912 EVP_MD_md(). Change code that uses it and update docs.
5913 [Steve Henson]
5914
5915 *) ..._ctrl functions now have corresponding ..._callback_ctrl functions
5916 where the 'void *' argument is replaced by a function pointer argument.
5917 Previously 'void *' was abused to point to functions, which works on
5918 many platforms, but is not correct. As these functions are usually
5919 called by macros defined in OpenSSL header files, most source code
5920 should work without changes.
5921 [Richard Levitte]
5922
5923 *) <openssl/opensslconf.h> (which is created by Configure) now contains
5924 sections with information on -D... compiler switches used for
5925 compiling the library so that applications can see them. To enable
5926 one of these sections, a pre-processor symbol OPENSSL_..._DEFINES
5927 must be defined. E.g.,
5928 #define OPENSSL_ALGORITHM_DEFINES
5929 #include <openssl/opensslconf.h>
5930 defines all pertinent NO_<algo> symbols, such as NO_IDEA, NO_RSA, etc.
5931 [Richard Levitte, Ulf and Bodo Möller]
5932
5933 *) Bugfix: Tolerate fragmentation and interleaving in the SSL 3/TLS
5934 record layer.
5935 [Bodo Moeller]
5936
5937 *) Change the 'other' type in certificate aux info to a STACK_OF
5938 X509_ALGOR. Although not an AlgorithmIdentifier as such it has
5939 the required ASN1 format: arbitrary types determined by an OID.
5940 [Steve Henson]
5941
5942 *) Add some PEM_write_X509_REQ_NEW() functions and a command line
5943 argument to 'req'. This is not because the function is newer or
5944 better than others it just uses the work 'NEW' in the certificate
5945 request header lines. Some software needs this.
5946 [Steve Henson]
5947
5948 *) Reorganise password command line arguments: now passwords can be
5949 obtained from various sources. Delete the PEM_cb function and make
5950 it the default behaviour: i.e. if the callback is NULL and the
5951 usrdata argument is not NULL interpret it as a null terminated pass
5952 phrase. If usrdata and the callback are NULL then the pass phrase
5953 is prompted for as usual.
5954 [Steve Henson]
5955
5956 *) Add support for the Compaq Atalla crypto accelerator. If it is installed,
5957 the support is automatically enabled. The resulting binaries will
5958 autodetect the card and use it if present.
5959 [Ben Laurie and Compaq Inc.]
5960
5961 *) Work around for Netscape hang bug. This sends certificate request
5962 and server done in one record. Since this is perfectly legal in the
5963 SSL/TLS protocol it isn't a "bug" option and is on by default. See
5964 the bugs/SSLv3 entry for more info.
5965 [Steve Henson]
5966
5967 *) HP-UX tune-up: new unified configs, HP C compiler bug workaround.
5968 [Andy Polyakov]
5969
5970 *) Add -rand argument to smime and pkcs12 applications and read/write
5971 of seed file.
5972 [Steve Henson]
5973
5974 *) New 'passwd' tool for crypt(3) and apr1 password hashes.
5975 [Bodo Moeller]
5976
5977 *) Add command line password options to the remaining applications.
5978 [Steve Henson]
5979
5980 *) Bug fix for BN_div_recp() for numerators with an even number of
5981 bits.
5982 [Ulf Möller]
5983
5984 *) More tests in bntest.c, and changed test_bn output.
5985 [Ulf Möller]
5986
5987 *) ./config recognizes MacOS X now.
5988 [Andy Polyakov]
5989
5990 *) Bug fix for BN_div() when the first words of num and divsor are
5991 equal (it gave wrong results if (rem=(n1-q*d0)&BN_MASK2) < d0).
5992 [Ulf Möller]
5993
5994 *) Add support for various broken PKCS#8 formats, and command line
5995 options to produce them.
5996 [Steve Henson]
5997
5998 *) New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get() and BT_CTX_end() to
5999 get temporary BIGNUMs from a BN_CTX.
6000 [Ulf Möller]
6001
6002 *) Correct return values in BN_mod_exp_mont() and BN_mod_exp2_mont()
6003 for p == 0.
6004 [Ulf Möller]
6005
6006 *) Change the SSLeay_add_all_*() functions to OpenSSL_add_all_*() and
6007 include a #define from the old name to the new. The original intent
6008 was that statically linked binaries could for example just call
6009 SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() to just add ciphers to the table and not
6010 link with digests. This never worked becayse SSLeay_add_all_digests()
6011 and SSLeay_add_all_ciphers() were in the same source file so calling
6012 one would link with the other. They are now in separate source files.
6013 [Steve Henson]
6014
6015 *) Add a new -notext option to 'ca' and a -pubkey option to 'spkac'.
6016 [Steve Henson]
6017
6018 *) Use a less unusual form of the Miller-Rabin primality test (it used
6019 a binary algorithm for exponentiation integrated into the Miller-Rabin
6020 loop, our standard modexp algorithms are faster).
6021 [Bodo Moeller]
6022
6023 *) Support for the EBCDIC character set completed.
6024 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@Mch.SNI.De>]
6025
6026 *) Source code cleanups: use const where appropriate, eliminate casts,
6027 use void * instead of char * in lhash.
6028 [Ulf Möller]
6029
6030 *) Bugfix: ssl3_send_server_key_exchange was not restartable
6031 (the state was not changed to SSL3_ST_SW_KEY_EXCH_B, and because of
6032 this the server could overwrite ephemeral keys that the client
6033 has already seen).
6034 [Bodo Moeller]
6035
6036 *) Turn DSA_is_prime into a macro that calls BN_is_prime,
6037 using 50 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test.
6038
6039 DSA_generate_parameters now uses BN_is_prime_fasttest (with 50
6040 iterations of the Rabin-Miller test as required by the appendix
6041 to FIPS PUB 186[-1]) instead of DSA_is_prime.
6042 As BN_is_prime_fasttest includes trial division, DSA parameter
6043 generation becomes much faster.
6044
6045 This implies a change for the callback functions in DSA_is_prime
6046 and DSA_generate_parameters: The callback function is called once
6047 for each positive witness in the Rabin-Miller test, not just
6048 occasionally in the inner loop; and the parameters to the
6049 callback function now provide an iteration count for the outer
6050 loop rather than for the current invocation of the inner loop.
6051 DSA_generate_parameters additionally can call the callback
6052 function with an 'iteration count' of -1, meaning that a
6053 candidate has passed the trial division test (when q is generated
6054 from an application-provided seed, trial division is skipped).
6055 [Bodo Moeller]
6056
6057 *) New function BN_is_prime_fasttest that optionally does trial
6058 division before starting the Rabin-Miller test and has
6059 an additional BN_CTX * argument (whereas BN_is_prime always
6060 has to allocate at least one BN_CTX).
6061 'callback(1, -1, cb_arg)' is called when a number has passed the
6062 trial division stage.
6063 [Bodo Moeller]
6064
6065 *) Fix for bug in CRL encoding. The validity dates weren't being handled
6066 as ASN1_TIME.
6067 [Steve Henson]
6068
6069 *) New -pkcs12 option to CA.pl script to write out a PKCS#12 file.
6070 [Steve Henson]
6071
6072 *) New function BN_pseudo_rand().
6073 [Ulf Möller]
6074
6075 *) Clean up BN_mod_mul_montgomery(): replace the broken (and unreadable)
6076 bignum version of BN_from_montgomery() with the working code from
6077 SSLeay 0.9.0 (the word based version is faster anyway), and clean up
6078 the comments.
6079 [Ulf Möller]
6080
6081 *) Avoid a race condition in s2_clnt.c (function get_server_hello) that
6082 made it impossible to use the same SSL_SESSION data structure in
6083 SSL2 clients in multiple threads.
6084 [Bodo Moeller]
6085
6086 *) The return value of RAND_load_file() no longer counts bytes obtained
6087 by stat(). RAND_load_file(..., -1) is new and uses the complete file
6088 to seed the PRNG (previously an explicit byte count was required).
6089 [Ulf Möller, Bodo Möller]
6090
6091 *) Clean up CRYPTO_EX_DATA functions, some of these didn't have prototypes
6092 used (char *) instead of (void *) and had casts all over the place.
6093 [Steve Henson]
6094
6095 *) Make BN_generate_prime() return NULL on error if ret!=NULL.
6096 [Ulf Möller]
6097
6098 *) Retain source code compatibility for BN_prime_checks macro:
6099 BN_is_prime(..., BN_prime_checks, ...) now uses
6100 BN_prime_checks_for_size to determine the appropriate number of
6101 Rabin-Miller iterations.
6102 [Ulf Möller]
6103
6104 *) Diffie-Hellman uses "safe" primes: DH_check() return code renamed to
6105 DH_CHECK_P_NOT_SAFE_PRIME.
6106 (Check if this is true? OpenPGP calls them "strong".)
6107 [Ulf Möller]
6108
6109 *) Merge the functionality of "dh" and "gendh" programs into a new program
6110 "dhparam". The old programs are retained for now but will handle DH keys
6111 (instead of parameters) in future.
6112 [Steve Henson]
6113
6114 *) Make the ciphers, s_server and s_client programs check the return values
6115 when a new cipher list is set.
6116 [Steve Henson]
6117
6118 *) Enhance the SSL/TLS cipher mechanism to correctly handle the TLS 56bit
6119 ciphers. Before when the 56bit ciphers were enabled the sorting was
6120 wrong.
6121
6122 The syntax for the cipher sorting has been extended to support sorting by
6123 cipher-strength (using the strength_bits hard coded in the tables).
6124 The new command is "@STRENGTH" (see also doc/apps/ciphers.pod).
6125
6126 Fix a bug in the cipher-command parser: when supplying a cipher command
6127 string with an "undefined" symbol (neither command nor alphanumeric
6128 [A-Za-z0-9], ssl_set_cipher_list used to hang in an endless loop. Now
6129 an error is flagged.
6130
6131 Due to the strength-sorting extension, the code of the
6132 ssl_create_cipher_list() function was completely rearranged. I hope that
6133 the readability was also increased :-)
6134 [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
6135
6136 *) Minor change to 'x509' utility. The -CAcreateserial option now uses 1
6137 for the first serial number and places 2 in the serial number file. This
6138 avoids problems when the root CA is created with serial number zero and
6139 the first user certificate has the same issuer name and serial number
6140 as the root CA.
6141 [Steve Henson]
6142
6143 *) Fixes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities, change the 'req' program so it uses
6144 the new code. Add documentation for this stuff.
6145 [Steve Henson]
6146
6147 *) Changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE utilities. These have been renamed from
6148 X509_*() to X509at_*() on the grounds that they don't handle X509
6149 structures and behave in an analagous way to the X509v3 functions:
6150 they shouldn't be called directly but wrapper functions should be used
6151 instead.
6152
6153 So we also now have some wrapper functions that call the X509at functions
6154 when passed certificate requests. (TO DO: similar things can be done with
6155 PKCS#7 signed and unsigned attributes, PKCS#12 attributes and a few other
6156 things. Some of these need some d2i or i2d and print functionality
6157 because they handle more complex structures.)
6158 [Steve Henson]
6159
6160 *) Add missing #ifndefs that caused missing symbols when building libssl
6161 as a shared library without RSA. Use #ifndef NO_SSL2 instead of
6162 NO_RSA in ssl/s2*.c.
6163 [Kris Kennaway <kris@hub.freebsd.org>, modified by Ulf Möller]
6164
6165 *) Precautions against using the PRNG uninitialized: RAND_bytes() now
6166 has a return value which indicates the quality of the random data
6167 (1 = ok, 0 = not seeded). Also an error is recorded on the thread's
6168 error queue. New function RAND_pseudo_bytes() generates output that is
6169 guaranteed to be unique but not unpredictable. RAND_add is like
6170 RAND_seed, but takes an extra argument for an entropy estimate
6171 (RAND_seed always assumes full entropy).
6172 [Ulf Möller]
6173
6174 *) Do more iterations of Rabin-Miller probable prime test (specifically,
6175 3 for 1024-bit primes, 6 for 512-bit primes, 12 for 256-bit primes
6176 instead of only 2 for all lengths; see BN_prime_checks_for_size definition
6177 in crypto/bn/bn_prime.c for the complete table). This guarantees a
6178 false-positive rate of at most 2^-80 for random input.
6179 [Bodo Moeller]
6180
6181 *) Rewrite ssl3_read_n (ssl/s3_pkt.c) avoiding a couple of bugs.
6182 [Bodo Moeller]
6183
6184 *) New function X509_CTX_rget_chain() (renamed to X509_CTX_get1_chain
6185 in the 0.9.5 release), this returns the chain
6186 from an X509_CTX structure with a dup of the stack and all
6187 the X509 reference counts upped: so the stack will exist
6188 after X509_CTX_cleanup() has been called. Modify pkcs12.c
6189 to use this.
6190
6191 Also make SSL_SESSION_print() print out the verify return
6192 code.
6193 [Steve Henson]
6194
6195 *) Add manpage for the pkcs12 command. Also change the default
6196 behaviour so MAC iteration counts are used unless the new
6197 -nomaciter option is used. This improves file security and
6198 only older versions of MSIE (4.0 for example) need it.
6199 [Steve Henson]
6200
6201 *) Honor the no-xxx Configure options when creating .DEF files.
6202 [Ulf Möller]
6203
6204 *) Add PKCS#10 attributes to field table: challengePassword,
6205 unstructuredName and unstructuredAddress. These are taken from
6206 draft PKCS#9 v2.0 but are compatible with v1.2 provided no
6207 international characters are used.
6208
6209 More changes to X509_ATTRIBUTE code: allow the setting of types
6210 based on strings. Remove the 'loc' parameter when adding
6211 attributes because these will be a SET OF encoding which is sorted
6212 in ASN1 order.
6213 [Steve Henson]
6214
6215 *) Initial changes to the 'req' utility to allow request generation
6216 automation. This will allow an application to just generate a template
6217 file containing all the field values and have req construct the
6218 request.
6219
6220 Initial support for X509_ATTRIBUTE handling. Stacks of these are
6221 used all over the place including certificate requests and PKCS#7
6222 structures. They are currently handled manually where necessary with
6223 some primitive wrappers for PKCS#7. The new functions behave in a
6224 manner analogous to the X509 extension functions: they allow
6225 attributes to be looked up by NID and added.
6226
6227 Later something similar to the X509V3 code would be desirable to
6228 automatically handle the encoding, decoding and printing of the
6229 more complex types. The string types like challengePassword can
6230 be handled by the string table functions.
6231
6232 Also modified the multi byte string table handling. Now there is
6233 a 'global mask' which masks out certain types. The table itself
6234 can use the flag STABLE_NO_MASK to ignore the mask setting: this
6235 is useful when for example there is only one permissible type
6236 (as in countryName) and using the mask might result in no valid
6237 types at all.
6238 [Steve Henson]
6239
6240 *) Clean up 'Finished' handling, and add functions SSL_get_finished and
6241 SSL_get_peer_finished to allow applications to obtain the latest
6242 Finished messages sent to the peer or expected from the peer,
6243 respectively. (SSL_get_peer_finished is usually the Finished message
6244 actually received from the peer, otherwise the protocol will be aborted.)
6245
6246 As the Finished message are message digests of the complete handshake
6247 (with a total of 192 bits for TLS 1.0 and more for SSL 3.0), they can
6248 be used for external authentication procedures when the authentication
6249 provided by SSL/TLS is not desired or is not enough.
6250 [Bodo Moeller]
6251
6252 *) Enhanced support for Alpha Linux is added. Now ./config checks if
6253 the host supports BWX extension and if Compaq C is present on the
6254 $PATH. Just exploiting of the BWX extension results in 20-30%
6255 performance kick for some algorithms, e.g. DES and RC4 to mention
6256 a couple. Compaq C in turn generates ~20% faster code for MD5 and
6257 SHA1.
6258 [Andy Polyakov]
6259
6260 *) Add support for MS "fast SGC". This is arguably a violation of the
6261 SSL3/TLS protocol. Netscape SGC does two handshakes: the first with
6262 weak crypto and after checking the certificate is SGC a second one
6263 with strong crypto. MS SGC stops the first handshake after receiving
6264 the server certificate message and sends a second client hello. Since
6265 a server will typically do all the time consuming operations before
6266 expecting any further messages from the client (server key exchange
6267 is the most expensive) there is little difference between the two.
6268
6269 To get OpenSSL to support MS SGC we have to permit a second client
6270 hello message after we have sent server done. In addition we have to
6271 reset the MAC if we do get this second client hello.
6272 [Steve Henson]
6273
6274 *) Add a function 'd2i_AutoPrivateKey()' this will automatically decide
6275 if a DER encoded private key is RSA or DSA traditional format. Changed
6276 d2i_PrivateKey_bio() to use it. This is only needed for the "traditional"
6277 format DER encoded private key. Newer code should use PKCS#8 format which
6278 has the key type encoded in the ASN1 structure. Added DER private key
6279 support to pkcs8 application.
6280 [Steve Henson]
6281
6282 *) SSL 3/TLS 1 servers now don't request certificates when an anonymous
6283 ciphersuites has been selected (as required by the SSL 3/TLS 1
6284 specifications). Exception: When SSL_VERIFY_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
6285 is set, we interpret this as a request to violate the specification
6286 (the worst that can happen is a handshake failure, and 'correct'
6287 behaviour would result in a handshake failure anyway).
6288 [Bodo Moeller]
6289
6290 *) In SSL_CTX_add_session, take into account that there might be multiple
6291 SSL_SESSION structures with the same session ID (e.g. when two threads
6292 concurrently obtain them from an external cache).
6293 The internal cache can handle only one SSL_SESSION with a given ID,
6294 so if there's a conflict, we now throw out the old one to achieve
6295 consistency.
6296 [Bodo Moeller]
6297
6298 *) Add OIDs for idea and blowfish in CBC mode. This will allow both
6299 to be used in PKCS#5 v2.0 and S/MIME. Also add checking to
6300 some routines that use cipher OIDs: some ciphers do not have OIDs
6301 defined and so they cannot be used for S/MIME and PKCS#5 v2.0 for
6302 example.
6303 [Steve Henson]
6304
6305 *) Simplify the trust setting structure and code. Now we just have
6306 two sequences of OIDs for trusted and rejected settings. These will
6307 typically have values the same as the extended key usage extension
6308 and any application specific purposes.
6309
6310 The trust checking code now has a default behaviour: it will just
6311 check for an object with the same NID as the passed id. Functions can
6312 be provided to override either the default behaviour or the behaviour
6313 for a given id. SSL client, server and email already have functions
6314 in place for compatibility: they check the NID and also return "trusted"
6315 if the certificate is self signed.
6316 [Steve Henson]
6317
6318 *) Add d2i,i2d bio/fp functions for PrivateKey: these convert the
6319 traditional format into an EVP_PKEY structure.
6320 [Steve Henson]
6321
6322 *) Add a password callback function PEM_cb() which either prompts for
6323 a password if usr_data is NULL or otherwise assumes it is a null
6324 terminated password. Allow passwords to be passed on command line
6325 environment or config files in a few more utilities.
6326 [Steve Henson]
6327
6328 *) Add a bunch of DER and PEM functions to handle PKCS#8 format private
6329 keys. Add some short names for PKCS#8 PBE algorithms and allow them
6330 to be specified on the command line for the pkcs8 and pkcs12 utilities.
6331 Update documentation.
6332 [Steve Henson]
6333
6334 *) Support for ASN1 "NULL" type. This could be handled before by using
6335 ASN1_TYPE but there wasn't any function that would try to read a NULL
6336 and produce an error if it couldn't. For compatibility we also have
6337 ASN1_NULL_new() and ASN1_NULL_free() functions but these are faked and
6338 don't allocate anything because they don't need to.
6339 [Steve Henson]
6340
6341 *) Initial support for MacOS is now provided. Examine INSTALL.MacOS
6342 for details.
6343 [Andy Polyakov, Roy Woods <roy@centicsystems.ca>]
6344
6345 *) Rebuild of the memory allocation routines used by OpenSSL code and
6346 possibly others as well. The purpose is to make an interface that
6347 provide hooks so anyone can build a separate set of allocation and
6348 deallocation routines to be used by OpenSSL, for example memory
6349 pool implementations, or something else, which was previously hard
6350 since Malloc(), Realloc() and Free() were defined as macros having
6351 the values malloc, realloc and free, respectively (except for Win32
6352 compilations). The same is provided for memory debugging code.
6353 OpenSSL already comes with functionality to find memory leaks, but
6354 this gives people a chance to debug other memory problems.
6355
6356 With these changes, a new set of functions and macros have appeared:
6357
6358 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6359 CRYPTO_get_mem_debug_functions() [F]
6360 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options() [F]
6361 CRYPTO_dbg_get_options() [F]
6362 CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() [M]
6363
6364 The memory debug functions are NULL by default, unless the library
6365 is compiled with CRYPTO_MDEBUG or friends is defined. If someone
6366 wants to debug memory anyway, CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() (which
6367 gives the standard debugging functions that come with OpenSSL) or
6368 CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_functions() (tells OpenSSL to use functions
6369 provided by the library user) must be used. When the standard
6370 debugging functions are used, CRYPTO_dbg_set_options can be used to
6371 request additional information:
6372 CRYPTO_dbg_set_options(V_CYRPTO_MDEBUG_xxx) corresponds to setting
6373 the CRYPTO_MDEBUG_xxx macro when compiling the library.
6374
6375 Also, things like CRYPTO_set_mem_functions will always give the
6376 expected result (the new set of functions is used for allocation
6377 and deallocation) at all times, regardless of platform and compiler
6378 options.
6379
6380 To finish it up, some functions that were never use in any other
6381 way than through macros have a new API and new semantic:
6382
6383 CRYPTO_dbg_malloc()
6384 CRYPTO_dbg_realloc()
6385 CRYPTO_dbg_free()
6386
6387 All macros of value have retained their old syntax.
6388 [Richard Levitte and Bodo Moeller]
6389
6390 *) Some S/MIME fixes. The OID for SMIMECapabilities was wrong, the
6391 ordering of SMIMECapabilities wasn't in "strength order" and there
6392 was a missing NULL in the AlgorithmIdentifier for the SHA1 signature
6393 algorithm.
6394 [Steve Henson]
6395
6396 *) Some ASN1 types with illegal zero length encoding (INTEGER,
6397 ENUMERATED and OBJECT IDENTIFIER) choked the ASN1 routines.
6398 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>, modified by Steve Henson]
6399
6400 *) Merge in my S/MIME library for OpenSSL. This provides a simple
6401 S/MIME API on top of the PKCS#7 code, a MIME parser (with enough
6402 functionality to handle multipart/signed properly) and a utility
6403 called 'smime' to call all this stuff. This is based on code I
6404 originally wrote for Celo who have kindly allowed it to be
6405 included in OpenSSL.
6406 [Steve Henson]
6407
6408 *) Add variants des_set_key_checked and des_set_key_unchecked of
6409 des_set_key (aka des_key_sched). Global variable des_check_key
6410 decides which of these is called by des_set_key; this way
6411 des_check_key behaves as it always did, but applications and
6412 the library itself, which was buggy for des_check_key == 1,
6413 have a cleaner way to pick the version they need.
6414 [Bodo Moeller]
6415
6416 *) New function PKCS12_newpass() which changes the password of a
6417 PKCS12 structure.
6418 [Steve Henson]
6419
6420 *) Modify X509_TRUST and X509_PURPOSE so it also uses a static and
6421 dynamic mix. In both cases the ids can be used as an index into the
6422 table. Also modified the X509_TRUST_add() and X509_PURPOSE_add()
6423 functions so they accept a list of the field values and the
6424 application doesn't need to directly manipulate the X509_TRUST
6425 structure.
6426 [Steve Henson]
6427
6428 *) Modify the ASN1_STRING_TABLE stuff so it also uses bsearch and doesn't
6429 need initialising.
6430 [Steve Henson]
6431
6432 *) Modify the way the V3 extension code looks up extensions. This now
6433 works in a similar way to the object code: we have some "standard"
6434 extensions in a static table which is searched with OBJ_bsearch()
6435 and the application can add dynamic ones if needed. The file
6436 crypto/x509v3/ext_dat.h now has the info: this file needs to be
6437 updated whenever a new extension is added to the core code and kept
6438 in ext_nid order. There is a simple program 'tabtest.c' which checks
6439 this. New extensions are not added too often so this file can readily
6440 be maintained manually.
6441
6442 There are two big advantages in doing things this way. The extensions
6443 can be looked up immediately and no longer need to be "added" using
6444 X509V3_add_standard_extensions(): this function now does nothing.
6445 [Side note: I get *lots* of email saying the extension code doesn't
6446 work because people forget to call this function]
6447 Also no dynamic allocation is done unless new extensions are added:
6448 so if we don't add custom extensions there is no need to call
6449 X509V3_EXT_cleanup().
6450 [Steve Henson]
6451
6452 *) Modify enc utility's salting as follows: make salting the default. Add a
6453 magic header, so unsalted files fail gracefully instead of just decrypting
6454 to garbage. This is because not salting is a big security hole, so people
6455 should be discouraged from doing it.
6456 [Ben Laurie]
6457
6458 *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
6459 digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
6460 parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
6461 operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
6462 -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
6463 DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
6464 [Steve Henson]
6465
6466 *) Initial certificate chain verify code. Currently tests the untrusted
6467 certificates for consistency with the verify purpose (which is set
6468 when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks the pathlength.
6469
6470 There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep the old behaviour:
6471 this is because it will reject chains with invalid extensions whereas
6472 every previous version of OpenSSL and SSLeay made no checks at all.
6473
6474 Trust code: checks the root CA for the relevant trust settings. Trust
6475 settings have an initial value consistent with the verify purpose: e.g.
6476 if the verify purpose is for SSL client use it expects the CA to be
6477 trusted for SSL client use. However the default value can be changed to
6478 permit custom trust settings: one example of this would be to only trust
6479 certificates from a specific "secure" set of CAs.
6480
6481 Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
6482 which should be used for version portability: especially since the
6483 verify structure is likely to change more often now.
6484
6485 SSL integration. Add purpose and trust to SSL_CTX and SSL and functions
6486 to set them. If not set then assume SSL clients will verify SSL servers
6487 and vice versa.
6488
6489 Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
6490 untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
6491 intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
6492 new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
6493 [Steve Henson]
6494
6495 *) Support for the authority information access extension.
6496 [Steve Henson]
6497
6498 *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
6499 PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
6500 public keys in a format compatible with certificate
6501 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
6502 functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
6503 these are retained for compatibility: however the DSA variants were
6504 never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
6505 utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
6506 keys so we should be OK.
6507
6508 The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
6509 that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
6510 formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
6511 require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
6512 even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
6513 other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
6514 stay in the name of compatibility.
6515
6516 With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
6517 is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
6518 it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
6519
6520 Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
6521 Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*()
6522 (renamed to EVP_PKEY_get1_*() in the OpenSSL 0.9.5 release) and add
6523 EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions (renamed to EVP_PKEY_set1_*())
6524 that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*() except they up the
6525 reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow" the
6526 supplied key).
6527 [Steve Henson]
6528
6529 *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
6530 CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
6531 added a new function to read in both types and return the number
6532 read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
6533 DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
6534 because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
6535 without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
6536 a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
6537 in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
6538 attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
6539 any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
6540 to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
6541 routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
6542 [Steve Henson]
6543
6544 *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
6545 [Steve Henson]
6546
6547 *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
6548 so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
6549 for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
6550 has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
6551 certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
6552 in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
6553 single self signed certificate. This means that:
6554 openssl verify ss.pem
6555 now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
6556 openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
6557 is OK.
6558 [Steve Henson]
6559
6560 *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
6561 (and add it to external session representation).
6562 This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
6563 but an application-provided verification callback (set by
6564 SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
6565 anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
6566 but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
6567 ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
6568 security holes.
6569 [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
6570
6571 *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
6572 case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
6573 didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
6574 [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
6575
6576 *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
6577 forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
6578 -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
6579 [Steve Henson]
6580
6581 *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
6582 to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
6583 hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
6584 code.
6585 [Steve Henson]
6586
6587 *) SSL_get1_session() is like SSL_get_session(), but increments
6588 the reference count in the SSL_SESSION returned.
6589 [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
6590
6591 *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
6592 Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
6593 certificate auxiliary information.
6594 [Steve Henson]
6595
6596 *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
6597 the 'enc' command.
6598 [Steve Henson]
6599
6600 *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
6601 detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
6602 allocation was originated: CRYPTO_push_info("constant string") adds
6603 the string plus current file name and line number to a per-thread
6604 stack, CRYPTO_pop_info() does the obvious, CRYPTO_remove_all_info()
6605 is like calling CYRPTO_pop_info() until the stack is empty.
6606 Also updated memory leak detection code to be multi-thread-safe.
6607 [Richard Levitte]
6608
6609 *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
6610 encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
6611 [Steve Henson]
6612
6613 *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
6614 to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
6615 OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
6616 manpages and fix a few bugs.
6617 [Steve Henson]
6618
6619 *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
6620 [Steve Henson]
6621
6622 *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
6623 leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
6624 [Steve Henson]
6625
6626 *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
6627 This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
6628 functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
6629 can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
6630 will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
6631 doing things this way a fair degree of compatibility can be
6632 retained: existing certificates can have this information added
6633 using the new 'x509' options.
6634
6635 Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
6636 settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
6637 certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
6638 can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
6639 for all purposes.
6640 [Steve Henson]
6641
6642 *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD).
6643 The problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working
6644 since SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced
6645 with non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95%
6646 performance improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
6647 [Mark Cox]
6648
6649 *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
6650 handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
6651 the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
6652 A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
6653 to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
6654 the effective key length. In this case the effective key length can still
6655 be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
6656 by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
6657 EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
6658 the key length and effective key length are equal.
6659 [Steve Henson]
6660
6661 *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
6662 X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
6663 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
6664 and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
6665 the structures. The more adventurous can try:
6666 X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
6667 and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
6668 [Steve Henson]
6669
6670 *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
6671 copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
6672 way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
6673 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
6674 BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
6675 using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
6676 openssl.cnf for more info.
6677 [Steve Henson]
6678
6679 *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
6680 - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
6681 - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
6682 md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
6683 or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
6684 Access to the large state is not always serializable because
6685 the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
6686 md should be large enough anyway.
6687 [Bodo Moeller]
6688
6689 *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
6690 for handling the random seed file.
6691
6692 Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
6693 ca,
6694 dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its '-rand' option),
6695 s_client,
6696 s_server,
6697 x509 (when signing).
6698 Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
6699 seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
6700 for RSA signatures we could do without one.
6701
6702 gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
6703 of each file listed in the '-rand' option. The function as previously
6704 found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
6705 that support '-rand'.
6706 [Bodo Moeller]
6707
6708 *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
6709 don't just chmod when it may be too late.
6710 [Bodo Moeller]
6711
6712 *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
6713 when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
6714 [Bill Perry]
6715
6716 *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
6717 ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
6718 into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
6719 and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
6720 is suitable.
6721 [Steve Henson]
6722
6723 *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
6724 macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
6725 use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
6726 should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
6727 [Steve Henson]
6728
6729 *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
6730 to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
6731 server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
6732 VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
6733 verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
6734 print out all the purposes.
6735 [Steve Henson]
6736
6737 *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
6738 functions.
6739 [Steve Henson]
6740
6741 *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
6742 for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
6743 This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
6744 single function call.
6745 [Steve Henson]
6746
6747 *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
6748 platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
6749 [Andy Polyakov]
6750
6751 *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
6752 its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
6753 from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
6754 [Steve Henson]
6755
6756 *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
6757 when producing the local key id.
6758 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
6759
6760 *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
6761 stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
6762 certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
6763 "server.pem".
6764 [Steve Henson]
6765
6766 *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
6767 a public key to be input or output. For example:
6768 openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
6769 Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
6770 [Steve Henson]
6771
6772 *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
6773 in the message. This was handled by allowing
6774 X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
6775 [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
6776
6777 *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
6778 to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
6779 if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
6780 [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
6781
6782 *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
6783 data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
6784 caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
6785 BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
6786 trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
6787 do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
6788 data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
6789 the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
6790 is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
6791 resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
6792 usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
6793 trivial: move one line.
6794 [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
6795
6796 *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
6797 old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
6798 tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
6799 supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
6800 sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
6801 are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
6802 the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
6803 received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
6804 keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
6805 working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
6806 with an event loop for example.
6807 [Steve Henson]
6808
6809 *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
6810 and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
6811 will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
6812 if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
6813 For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
6814 should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
6815 This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
6816 for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
6817 of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
6818 [Steve Henson]
6819
6820 *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
6821 will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
6822 similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
6823 no longer accesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
6824 less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
6825 a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
6826 [Steve Henson]
6827
6828 *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
6829 sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
6830 multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
6831 [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
6832
6833 *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
6834 removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
6835 is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
6836 by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
6837 key generation.
6838 [Steve Henson]
6839
6840 *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
6841 (still largely untested)
6842 [Bodo Moeller]
6843
6844 *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
6845 ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
6846 [Steve Henson]
6847
6848 *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
6849 UTF8 strings a character at a time.
6850 [Steve Henson]
6851
6852 *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
6853 (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
6854 (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
6855 [Bodo Moeller]
6856
6857 *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
6858 handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
6859 NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
6860 print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
6861 Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
6862 [Steve Henson]
6863
6864 *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
6865 [Andy Polyakov]
6866
6867 *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
6868 command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
6869 <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
6870 and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
6871 the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
6872 in ca.
6873 [Steve Henson]
6874
6875 *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
6876 the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
6877 1.OU="Unit name 1"
6878 2.OU="Unit name 2"
6879 this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
6880 [Steve Henson]
6881
6882 *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
6883 are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
6884 config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
6885 are otherwise ignored at present.
6886 [Steve Henson]
6887
6888 *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
6889 data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
6890 EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
6891 A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
6892 copied until the next read.
6893 [Steve Henson]
6894
6895 *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
6896 a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
6897 for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
6898 [Steve Henson]
6899
6900 *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
6901 provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
6902 "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
6903 hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
6904 library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
6905 associated functions.
6906 [Steve Henson]
6907
6908 *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
6909 as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
6910 not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
6911 a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
6912 an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
6913 to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
6914 copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
6915 function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
6916 an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
6917 memory BIOs.
6918 [Steve Henson]
6919
6920 *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
6921 state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
6922 a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
6923 but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
6924 [Bodo Moeller]
6925
6926 *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
6927 NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
6928 always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
6929 the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
6930 allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
6931 functionality.
6932 [Steve Henson]
6933
6934 *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
6935 the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
6936 under Win32.
6937 [Steve Henson]
6938
6939 *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
6940 in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
6941 extensions to be obtained and added.
6942 [Steve Henson]
6943
6944 *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
6945 CRLF (as required by many protocols).
6946 [Bodo Moeller]
6947
6948 Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
6949
6950 *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
6951 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
6952
6953 *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
6954 [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
6955
6956 *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
6957 program.
6958 [Steve Henson]
6959
6960 *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
6961 DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
6962 DH parameters contain its length).
6963
6964 For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
6965 much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
6966 where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
6967 much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
6968 exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
6969 ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
6970 utter importance to use
6971 SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6972 or
6973 SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
6974 when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
6975 attacks may become possible!
6976 [Bodo Moeller]
6977
6978 *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
6979 [Bodo Moeller]
6980
6981 *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
6982 this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
6983 [Steve Henson]
6984
6985 *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
6986 an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
6987 it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
6988 or long name.
6989 [Steve Henson]
6990
6991 *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
6992 method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
6993 otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
6994 no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
6995 in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
6996 By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
6997 private key operations.
6998 [Steve Henson]
6999
7000 *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
7001 [Andy Polyakov]
7002
7003 *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
7004 typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
7005 to
7006 ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
7007 so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
7008 The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
7009 additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
7010 the password callback is called.
7011 [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
7012
7013 New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
7014
7015 Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
7016 onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
7017 interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
7018 pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
7019 happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
7020 just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
7021 this will work.
7022
7023 *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
7024 (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
7025 problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
7026 To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
7027 auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
7028 for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
7029 [Bodo Moeller]
7030
7031 *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
7032 [Andy Polyakov]
7033
7034 *) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
7035 delete an unused file.
7036 [Ulf Möller]
7037
7038 *) Add support for the the free Netwide assembler (NASM) under Win32,
7039 since not many people have MASM (ml) and it can be hard to obtain.
7040 This is currently experimental but it seems to work OK and pass all
7041 the tests. Check out INSTALL.W32 for info.
7042 [Steve Henson]
7043
7044 *) Fix memory leaks in s3_clnt.c: All non-anonymous SSL3/TLS1 connections
7045 without temporary keys kept an extra copy of the server key,
7046 and connections with temporary keys did not free everything in case
7047 of an error.
7048 [Bodo Moeller]
7049
7050 *) New function RSA_check_key and new openssl rsa option -check
7051 for verifying the consistency of RSA keys.
7052 [Ulf Moeller, Bodo Moeller]
7053
7054 *) Various changes to make Win32 compile work:
7055 1. Casts to avoid "loss of data" warnings in p5_crpt2.c
7056 2. Change unsigned int to int in b_dump.c to avoid "signed/unsigned
7057 comparison" warnings.
7058 3. Add sk_<TYPE>_sort to DEF file generator and do make update.
7059 [Steve Henson]
7060
7061 *) Add a debugging option to PKCS#5 v2 key generation function: when
7062 you #define DEBUG_PKCS5V2 passwords, salts, iteration counts and
7063 derived keys are printed to stderr.
7064 [Steve Henson]
7065
7066 *) Copy the flags in ASN1_STRING_dup().
7067 [Roman E. Pavlov <pre@mo.msk.ru>]
7068
7069 *) The x509 application mishandled signing requests containing DSA
7070 keys when the signing key was also DSA and the parameters didn't match.
7071
7072 It was supposed to omit the parameters when they matched the signing key:
7073 the verifying software was then supposed to automatically use the CA's
7074 parameters if they were absent from the end user certificate.
7075
7076 Omitting parameters is no longer recommended. The test was also
7077 the wrong way round! This was probably due to unusual behaviour in
7078 EVP_cmp_parameters() which returns 1 if the parameters match.
7079 This meant that parameters were omitted when they *didn't* match and
7080 the certificate was useless. Certificates signed with 'ca' didn't have
7081 this bug.
7082 [Steve Henson, reported by Doug Erickson <Doug.Erickson@Part.NET>]
7083
7084 *) Memory leak checking (-DCRYPTO_MDEBUG) had some problems.
7085 The interface is as follows:
7086 Applications can use
7087 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON) aka MemCheck_start(),
7088 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_OFF) aka MemCheck_stop();
7089 "off" is now the default.
7090 The library internally uses
7091 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_DISABLE) aka MemCheck_off(),
7092 CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ENABLE) aka MemCheck_on()
7093 to disable memory-checking temporarily.
7094
7095 Some inconsistent states that previously were possible (and were
7096 even the default) are now avoided.
7097
7098 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_TIME is new and additionally stores the current time
7099 with each memory chunk allocated; this is occasionally more helpful
7100 than just having a counter.
7101
7102 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_THREAD is also new and adds the thread ID.
7103
7104 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL enables all of the above, plus any future
7105 extensions.
7106 [Bodo Moeller]
7107
7108 *) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
7109 which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
7110 whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
7111 Initial "mode" flags are:
7112
7113 SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
7114 a single record has been written.
7115 SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER Don't insist that SSL_write
7116 retries use the same buffer location.
7117 (But all of the contents must be
7118 copied!)
7119 [Bodo Moeller]
7120
7121 *) Bugfix: SSL_set_options ignored its parameter, only SSL_CTX_set_options
7122 worked.
7123
7124 *) Fix problems with no-hmac etc.
7125 [Ulf Möller, pointed out by Brian Wellington <bwelling@tislabs.com>]
7126
7127 *) New functions RSA_get_default_method(), RSA_set_method() and
7128 RSA_get_method(). These allows replacement of RSA_METHODs without having
7129 to mess around with the internals of an RSA structure.
7130 [Steve Henson]
7131
7132 *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
7133 Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
7134 test programs.
7135 [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
7136
7137 *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
7138 up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
7139 store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
7140 than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
7141 point to the end.
7142 [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
7143 <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
7144
7145 *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
7146 of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
7147 function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
7148 certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
7149 case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
7150 distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
7151 [Steve Henson]
7152
7153 *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
7154 function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
7155 necessary function names.
7156 [Steve Henson]
7157
7158 *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
7159 options set by Configure in the top level Makefile, and Configure
7160 was not even able to write more than one option correctly.
7161 Fixed, now "no-idea no-rc5 -DCRYPTO_MDEBUG" etc. works as intended.
7162 [Bodo Moeller]
7163
7164 *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
7165 file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
7166 for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
7167 [Steve Henson]
7168
7169 *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
7170 Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
7171 must use this, not the compile-time macro.
7172 (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
7173 such programs?)
7174 Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
7175 need locks.
7176 [Bodo Moeller]
7177
7178 *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
7179 through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
7180 SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
7181 [Bodo Moeller]
7182
7183 *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
7184 can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
7185 appropriate.
7186 [Bodo Moeller]
7187
7188 *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
7189 for the encoded length.
7190 [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
7191
7192 *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
7193 [Steve Henson]
7194
7195 *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and
7196 PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
7197 PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
7198 secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
7199 [Steve Henson]
7200
7201 *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
7202 _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
7203 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7204
7205 *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
7206 wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
7207 PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
7208 unusual formatting.
7209 [Steve Henson]
7210
7211 *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
7212 to use the new extension code.
7213 [Steve Henson]
7214
7215 *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
7216 with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
7217 arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
7218 constant.
7219 [Steve Henson]
7220
7221 *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
7222 name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
7223 according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
7224 [Bodo Moeller]
7225
7226 #if 0
7227 *) DES CBC did not update the IV. Weird.
7228 [Ben Laurie]
7229 #else
7230 des_cbc_encrypt does not update the IV, but des_ncbc_encrypt does.
7231 Changing the behaviour of the former might break existing programs --
7232 where IV updating is needed, des_ncbc_encrypt can be used.
7233 #endif
7234
7235 *) When bntest is run from "make test" it drives bc to check its
7236 calculations, as well as internally checking them. If an internal check
7237 fails, it needs to cause bc to give a non-zero result or make test carries
7238 on without noticing the failure. Fixed.
7239 [Ben Laurie]
7240
7241 *) DES library cleanups.
7242 [Ulf Möller]
7243
7244 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
7245 used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
7246 ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
7247 against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
7248 yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
7249 of v2.0.
7250 [Steve Henson]
7251
7252 *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
7253 Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
7254 [Bodo Moeller]
7255
7256 *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
7257 assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
7258 structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
7259 but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
7260 the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
7261 underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
7262 This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
7263 'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
7264 and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
7265 [Steve Henson]
7266
7267 *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
7268 and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
7269 Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
7270 KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
7271 value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
7272 value doesn't matter.
7273 [Steve Henson]
7274
7275 *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
7276 support mutable.
7277 [Ben Laurie]
7278
7279 *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
7280 [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
7281 "linux-sparc" configuration.
7282 [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
7283
7284 *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
7285 [Ulf Möller]
7286
7287 *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
7288 File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
7289 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7290
7291 *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
7292 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
7293
7294 *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
7295 [Ben Laurie]
7296
7297 *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
7298 [Ben Laurie]
7299
7300 *) Additional typesafe stacks.
7301 [Ben Laurie]
7302
7303 *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
7304 [Bodo Moeller]
7305
7306
7307 Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [29 May 1999]
7308
7309 *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
7310
7311 *) Updated some demos.
7312 [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
7313
7314 *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
7315 [Wu Zhigang]
7316
7317 *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
7318 [Steve Henson]
7319
7320 *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
7321 [Steve Henson]
7322
7323 *) Set #! path to perl in apps/der_chop to where we found it
7324 instead of using a fixed path.
7325 [Bodo Moeller]
7326
7327 *) SHA library changes for irix64-mips4-cc.
7328 [Andy Polyakov]
7329
7330 *) Improvements for VMS support.
7331 [Richard Levitte]
7332
7333
7334 Changes between 0.9.2b and 0.9.3 [24 May 1999]
7335
7336 *) Bignum library bug fix. IRIX 6 passes "make test" now!
7337 This also avoids the problems with SC4.2 and unpatched SC5.
7338 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7339
7340 *) New functions sk_num, sk_value and sk_set to replace the previous macros.
7341 These are required because of the typesafe stack would otherwise break
7342 existing code. If old code used a structure member which used to be STACK
7343 and is now STACK_OF (for example cert in a PKCS7_SIGNED structure) with
7344 sk_num or sk_value it would produce an error because the num, data members
7345 are not present in STACK_OF. Now it just produces a warning. sk_set
7346 replaces the old method of assigning a value to sk_value
7347 (e.g. sk_value(x, i) = y) which the library used in a few cases. Any code
7348 that does this will no longer work (and should use sk_set instead) but
7349 this could be regarded as a "questionable" behaviour anyway.
7350 [Steve Henson]
7351
7352 *) Fix most of the other PKCS#7 bugs. The "experimental" code can now
7353 correctly handle encrypted S/MIME data.
7354 [Steve Henson]
7355
7356 *) Change type of various DES function arguments from des_cblock
7357 (which means, in function argument declarations, pointer to char)
7358 to des_cblock * (meaning pointer to array with 8 char elements),
7359 which allows the compiler to do more typechecking; it was like
7360 that back in SSLeay, but with lots of ugly casts.
7361
7362 Introduce new type const_des_cblock.
7363 [Bodo Moeller]
7364
7365 *) Reorganise the PKCS#7 library and get rid of some of the more obvious
7366 problems: find RecipientInfo structure that matches recipient certificate
7367 and initialise the ASN1 structures properly based on passed cipher.
7368 [Steve Henson]
7369
7370 *) Belatedly make the BN tests actually check the results.
7371 [Ben Laurie]
7372
7373 *) Fix the encoding and decoding of negative ASN1 INTEGERS and conversion
7374 to and from BNs: it was completely broken. New compilation option
7375 NEG_PUBKEY_BUG to allow for some broken certificates that encode public
7376 key elements as negative integers.
7377 [Steve Henson]
7378
7379 *) Reorganize and speed up MD5.
7380 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7381
7382 *) VMS support.
7383 [Richard Levitte <richard@levitte.org>]
7384
7385 *) New option -out to asn1parse to allow the parsed structure to be
7386 output to a file. This is most useful when combined with the -strparse
7387 option to examine the output of things like OCTET STRINGS.
7388 [Steve Henson]
7389
7390 *) Make SSL library a little more fool-proof by not requiring any longer
7391 that SSL_set_{accept,connect}_state be called before
7392 SSL_{accept,connect} may be used (SSL_set_..._state is omitted
7393 in many applications because usually everything *appeared* to work as
7394 intended anyway -- now it really works as intended).
7395 [Bodo Moeller]
7396
7397 *) Move openssl.cnf out of lib/.
7398 [Ulf Möller]
7399
7400 *) Fix various things to let OpenSSL even pass ``egcc -pipe -O2 -Wall
7401 -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes
7402 -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -Winline'' with EGCS 1.1.2+
7403 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7404
7405 *) Various fixes to the EVP and PKCS#7 code. It may now be able to
7406 handle PKCS#7 enveloped data properly.
7407 [Sebastian Akerman <sak@parallelconsulting.com>, modified by Steve]
7408
7409 *) Create a duplicate of the SSL_CTX's CERT in SSL_new instead of
7410 copying pointers. The cert_st handling is changed by this in
7411 various ways (and thus what used to be known as ctx->default_cert
7412 is now called ctx->cert, since we don't resort to s->ctx->[default_]cert
7413 any longer when s->cert does not give us what we need).
7414 ssl_cert_instantiate becomes obsolete by this change.
7415 As soon as we've got the new code right (possibly it already is?),
7416 we have solved a couple of bugs of the earlier code where s->cert
7417 was used as if it could not have been shared with other SSL structures.
7418
7419 Note that using the SSL API in certain dirty ways now will result
7420 in different behaviour than observed with earlier library versions:
7421 Changing settings for an SSL_CTX *ctx after having done s = SSL_new(ctx)
7422 does not influence s as it used to.
7423
7424 In order to clean up things more thoroughly, inside SSL_SESSION
7425 we don't use CERT any longer, but a new structure SESS_CERT
7426 that holds per-session data (if available); currently, this is
7427 the peer's certificate chain and, for clients, the server's certificate
7428 and temporary key. CERT holds only those values that can have
7429 meaningful defaults in an SSL_CTX.
7430 [Bodo Moeller]
7431
7432 *) New function X509V3_EXT_i2d() to create an X509_EXTENSION structure
7433 from the internal representation. Various PKCS#7 fixes: remove some
7434 evil casts and set the enc_dig_alg field properly based on the signing
7435 key type.
7436 [Steve Henson]
7437
7438 *) Allow PKCS#12 password to be set from the command line or the
7439 environment. Let 'ca' get its config file name from the environment
7440 variables "OPENSSL_CONF" or "SSLEAY_CONF" (for consistency with 'req'
7441 and 'x509').
7442 [Steve Henson]
7443
7444 *) Allow certificate policies extension to use an IA5STRING for the
7445 organization field. This is contrary to the PKIX definition but
7446 VeriSign uses it and IE5 only recognises this form. Document 'x509'
7447 extension option.
7448 [Steve Henson]
7449
7450 *) Add PEDANTIC compiler flag to allow compilation with gcc -pedantic,
7451 without disallowing inline assembler and the like for non-pedantic builds.
7452 [Ben Laurie]
7453
7454 *) Support Borland C++ builder.
7455 [Janez Jere <jj@void.si>, modified by Ulf Möller]
7456
7457 *) Support Mingw32.
7458 [Ulf Möller]
7459
7460 *) SHA-1 cleanups and performance enhancements.
7461 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7462
7463 *) Sparc v8plus assembler for the bignum library.
7464 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7465
7466 *) Accept any -xxx and +xxx compiler options in Configure.
7467 [Ulf Möller]
7468
7469 *) Update HPUX configuration.
7470 [Anonymous]
7471
7472 *) Add missing sk_<type>_unshift() function to safestack.h
7473 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7474
7475 *) New function SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file that sets the
7476 "extra_cert"s in addition to the certificate. (This makes sense
7477 only for "PEM" format files, as chains as a whole are not
7478 DER-encoded.)
7479 [Bodo Moeller]
7480
7481 *) Support verify_depth from the SSL API.
7482 x509_vfy.c had what can be considered an off-by-one-error:
7483 Its depth (which was not part of the external interface)
7484 was actually counting the number of certificates in a chain;
7485 now it really counts the depth.
7486 [Bodo Moeller]
7487
7488 *) Bugfix in crypto/x509/x509_cmp.c: The SSLerr macro was used
7489 instead of X509err, which often resulted in confusing error
7490 messages since the error codes are not globally unique
7491 (e.g. an alleged error in ssl3_accept when a certificate
7492 didn't match the private key).
7493
7494 *) New function SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context that allows to set a default
7495 value (so that you don't need SSL_set_session_id_context for each
7496 connection using the SSL_CTX).
7497 [Bodo Moeller]
7498
7499 *) OAEP decoding bug fix.
7500 [Ulf Möller]
7501
7502 *) Support INSTALL_PREFIX for package builders, as proposed by
7503 David Harris.
7504 [Bodo Moeller]
7505
7506 *) New Configure options "threads" and "no-threads". For systems
7507 where the proper compiler options are known (currently Solaris
7508 and Linux), "threads" is the default.
7509 [Bodo Moeller]
7510
7511 *) New script util/mklink.pl as a faster substitute for util/mklink.sh.
7512 [Bodo Moeller]
7513
7514 *) Install various scripts to $(OPENSSLDIR)/misc, not to
7515 $(INSTALLTOP)/bin -- they shouldn't clutter directories
7516 such as /usr/local/bin.
7517 [Bodo Moeller]
7518
7519 *) "make linux-shared" to build shared libraries.
7520 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7521
7522 *) New Configure option no-<cipher> (rsa, idea, rc5, ...).
7523 [Ulf Möller]
7524
7525 *) Add the PKCS#12 API documentation to openssl.txt. Preliminary support for
7526 extension adding in x509 utility.
7527 [Steve Henson]
7528
7529 *) Remove NOPROTO sections and error code comments.
7530 [Ulf Möller]
7531
7532 *) Partial rewrite of the DEF file generator to now parse the ANSI
7533 prototypes.
7534 [Steve Henson]
7535
7536 *) New Configure options --prefix=DIR and --openssldir=DIR.
7537 [Ulf Möller]
7538
7539 *) Complete rewrite of the error code script(s). It is all now handled
7540 by one script at the top level which handles error code gathering,
7541 header rewriting and C source file generation. It should be much better
7542 than the old method: it now uses a modified version of Ulf's parser to
7543 read the ANSI prototypes in all header files (thus the old K&R definitions
7544 aren't needed for error creation any more) and do a better job of
7545 translating function codes into names. The old 'ASN1 error code imbedded
7546 in a comment' is no longer necessary and it doesn't use .err files which
7547 have now been deleted. Also the error code call doesn't have to appear all
7548 on one line (which resulted in some large lines...).
7549 [Steve Henson]
7550
7551 *) Change #include filenames from <foo.h> to <openssl/foo.h>.
7552 [Bodo Moeller]
7553
7554 *) Change behaviour of ssl2_read when facing length-0 packets: Don't return
7555 0 (which usually indicates a closed connection), but continue reading.
7556 [Bodo Moeller]
7557
7558 *) Fix some race conditions.
7559 [Bodo Moeller]
7560
7561 *) Add support for CRL distribution points extension. Add Certificate
7562 Policies and CRL distribution points documentation.
7563 [Steve Henson]
7564
7565 *) Move the autogenerated header file parts to crypto/opensslconf.h.
7566 [Ulf Möller]
7567
7568 *) Fix new 56-bit DES export ciphersuites: they were using 7 bytes instead of
7569 8 of keying material. Merlin has also confirmed interop with this fix
7570 between OpenSSL and Baltimore C/SSL 2.0 and J/SSL 2.0.
7571 [Merlin Hughes <merlin@baltimore.ie>]
7572
7573 *) Fix lots of warnings.
7574 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7575
7576 *) In add_cert_dir() in crypto/x509/by_dir.c, break out of the loop if
7577 the directory spec didn't end with a LIST_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
7578 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7579
7580 *) Fix problems with sizeof(long) == 8.
7581 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7582
7583 *) Change functions to ANSI C.
7584 [Ulf Möller]
7585
7586 *) Fix typos in error codes.
7587 [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>, Ulf Möller]
7588
7589 *) Remove defunct assembler files from Configure.
7590 [Ulf Möller]
7591
7592 *) SPARC v8 assembler BIGNUM implementation.
7593 [Andy Polyakov <appro@fy.chalmers.se>]
7594
7595 *) Support for Certificate Policies extension: both print and set.
7596 Various additions to support the r2i method this uses.
7597 [Steve Henson]
7598
7599 *) A lot of constification, and fix a bug in X509_NAME_oneline() that could
7600 return a const string when you are expecting an allocated buffer.
7601 [Ben Laurie]
7602
7603 *) Add support for ASN1 types UTF8String and VISIBLESTRING, also the CHOICE
7604 types DirectoryString and DisplayText.
7605 [Steve Henson]
7606
7607 *) Add code to allow r2i extensions to access the configuration database,
7608 add an LHASH database driver and add several ctx helper functions.
7609 [Steve Henson]
7610
7611 *) Fix an evil bug in bn_expand2() which caused various BN functions to
7612 fail when they extended the size of a BIGNUM.
7613 [Steve Henson]
7614
7615 *) Various utility functions to handle SXNet extension. Modify mkdef.pl to
7616 support typesafe stack.
7617 [Steve Henson]
7618
7619 *) Fix typo in SSL_[gs]et_options().
7620 [Nils Frostberg <nils@medcom.se>]
7621
7622 *) Delete various functions and files that belonged to the (now obsolete)
7623 old X509V3 handling code.
7624 [Steve Henson]
7625
7626 *) New Configure option "rsaref".
7627 [Ulf Möller]
7628
7629 *) Don't auto-generate pem.h.
7630 [Bodo Moeller]
7631
7632 *) Introduce type-safe ASN.1 SETs.
7633 [Ben Laurie]
7634
7635 *) Convert various additional casted stacks to type-safe STACK_OF() variants.
7636 [Ben Laurie, Ralf S. Engelschall, Steve Henson]
7637
7638 *) Introduce type-safe STACKs. This will almost certainly break lots of code
7639 that links with OpenSSL (well at least cause lots of warnings), but fear
7640 not: the conversion is trivial, and it eliminates loads of evil casts. A
7641 few STACKed things have been converted already. Feel free to convert more.
7642 In the fullness of time, I'll do away with the STACK type altogether.
7643 [Ben Laurie]
7644
7645 *) Add `openssl ca -revoke <certfile>' facility which revokes a certificate
7646 specified in <certfile> by updating the entry in the index.txt file.
7647 This way one no longer has to edit the index.txt file manually for
7648 revoking a certificate. The -revoke option does the gory details now.
7649 [Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@openca.org>, Ralf S. Engelschall]
7650
7651 *) Fix `openssl crl -noout -text' combination where `-noout' killed the
7652 `-text' option at all and this way the `-noout -text' combination was
7653 inconsistent in `openssl crl' with the friends in `openssl x509|rsa|dsa'.
7654 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7655
7656 *) Make sure a corresponding plain text error message exists for the
7657 X509_V_ERR_CERT_REVOKED/23 error number which can occur when a
7658 verify callback function determined that a certificate was revoked.
7659 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7660
7661 *) Bugfix: In test/testenc, don't test "openssl <cipher>" for
7662 ciphers that were excluded, e.g. by -DNO_IDEA. Also, test
7663 all available cipers including rc5, which was forgotten until now.
7664 In order to let the testing shell script know which algorithms
7665 are available, a new (up to now undocumented) command
7666 "openssl list-cipher-commands" is used.
7667 [Bodo Moeller]
7668
7669 *) Bugfix: s_client occasionally would sleep in select() when
7670 it should have checked SSL_pending() first.
7671 [Bodo Moeller]
7672
7673 *) New functions DSA_do_sign and DSA_do_verify to provide access to
7674 the raw DSA values prior to ASN.1 encoding.
7675 [Ulf Möller]
7676
7677 *) Tweaks to Configure
7678 [Niels Poppe <niels@netbox.org>]
7679
7680 *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 ASN1 PBES2 structures. No other support,
7681 yet...
7682 [Steve Henson]
7683
7684 *) New variables $(RANLIB) and $(PERL) in the Makefiles.
7685 [Ulf Möller]
7686
7687 *) New config option to avoid instructions that are illegal on the 80386.
7688 The default code is faster, but requires at least a 486.
7689 [Ulf Möller]
7690
7691 *) Got rid of old SSL2_CLIENT_VERSION (inconsistently used) and
7692 SSL2_SERVER_VERSION (not used at all) macros, which are now the
7693 same as SSL2_VERSION anyway.
7694 [Bodo Moeller]
7695
7696 *) New "-showcerts" option for s_client.
7697 [Bodo Moeller]
7698
7699 *) Still more PKCS#12 integration. Add pkcs12 application to openssl
7700 application. Various cleanups and fixes.
7701 [Steve Henson]
7702
7703 *) More PKCS#12 integration. Add new pkcs12 directory with Makefile.ssl and
7704 modify error routines to work internally. Add error codes and PBE init
7705 to library startup routines.
7706 [Steve Henson]
7707
7708 *) Further PKCS#12 integration. Added password based encryption, PKCS#8 and
7709 packing functions to asn1 and evp. Changed function names and error
7710 codes along the way.
7711 [Steve Henson]
7712
7713 *) PKCS12 integration: and so it begins... First of several patches to
7714 slowly integrate PKCS#12 functionality into OpenSSL. Add PKCS#12
7715 objects to objects.h
7716 [Steve Henson]
7717
7718 *) Add a new 'indent' option to some X509V3 extension code. Initial ASN1
7719 and display support for Thawte strong extranet extension.
7720 [Steve Henson]
7721
7722 *) Add LinuxPPC support.
7723 [Jeff Dubrule <igor@pobox.org>]
7724
7725 *) Get rid of redundant BN file bn_mulw.c, and rename bn_div64 to
7726 bn_div_words in alpha.s.
7727 [Hannes Reinecke <H.Reinecke@hw.ac.uk> and Ben Laurie]
7728
7729 *) Make sure the RSA OAEP test is skipped under -DRSAref because
7730 OAEP isn't supported when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
7731 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7732
7733 *) Move definitions of IS_SET/IS_SEQUENCE inside crypto/asn1/asn1.h
7734 so they no longer are missing under -DNOPROTO.
7735 [Soren S. Jorvang <soren@t.dk>]
7736
7737
7738 Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2b [22 Mar 1999]
7739
7740 *) Make SSL_get_peer_cert_chain() work in servers. Unfortunately, it still
7741 doesn't work when the session is reused. Coming soon!
7742 [Ben Laurie]
7743
7744 *) Fix a security hole, that allows sessions to be reused in the wrong
7745 context thus bypassing client cert protection! All software that uses
7746 client certs and session caches in multiple contexts NEEDS PATCHING to
7747 allow session reuse! A fuller solution is in the works.
7748 [Ben Laurie, problem pointed out by Holger Reif, Bodo Moeller (and ???)]
7749
7750 *) Some more source tree cleanups (removed obsolete files
7751 crypto/bf/asm/bf586.pl, test/test.txt and crypto/sha/asm/f.s; changed
7752 permission on "config" script to be executable) and a fix for the INSTALL
7753 document.
7754 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7755
7756 *) Remove some legacy and erroneous uses of malloc, free instead of
7757 Malloc, Free.
7758 [Lennart Bang <lob@netstream.se>, with minor changes by Steve]
7759
7760 *) Make rsa_oaep_test return non-zero on error.
7761 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
7762
7763 *) Add support for native Solaris shared libraries. Configure
7764 solaris-sparc-sc4-pic, make, then run shlib/solaris-sc4.sh. It'd be nice
7765 if someone would make that last step automatic.
7766 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@AdNovum.CH>]
7767
7768 *) ctx_size was not built with the right compiler during "make links". Fixed.
7769 [Ben Laurie]
7770
7771 *) Change the meaning of 'ALL' in the cipher list. It now means "everything
7772 except NULL ciphers". This means the default cipher list will no longer
7773 enable NULL ciphers. They need to be specifically enabled e.g. with
7774 the string "DEFAULT:eNULL".
7775 [Steve Henson]
7776
7777 *) Fix to RSA private encryption routines: if p < q then it would
7778 occasionally produce an invalid result. This will only happen with
7779 externally generated keys because OpenSSL (and SSLeay) ensure p > q.
7780 [Steve Henson]
7781
7782 *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
7783 /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
7784 because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
7785 usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
7786 installed as `perl').
7787 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7788
7789 *) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
7790 [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
7791
7792 *) Fix Makefile.org so CC,CFLAG etc are passed to 'make links' add
7793 advapi32.lib to Win32 build and change the pem test comparision
7794 to fc.exe (thanks to Ulrich Kroener <kroneru@yahoo.com> for the
7795 suggestion). Fix misplaced ASNI prototypes and declarations in evp.h
7796 and crypto/des/ede_cbcm_enc.c.
7797 [Steve Henson]
7798
7799 *) DES quad checksum was broken on big-endian architectures. Fixed.
7800 [Ben Laurie]
7801
7802 *) Comment out two functions in bio.h that aren't implemented. Fix up the
7803 Win32 test batch file so it (might) work again. The Win32 test batch file
7804 is horrible: I feel ill....
7805 [Steve Henson]
7806
7807 *) Move various #ifdefs around so NO_SYSLOG, NO_DIRENT etc are now selected
7808 in e_os.h. Audit of header files to check ANSI and non ANSI
7809 sections: 10 functions were absent from non ANSI section and not exported
7810 from Windows DLLs. Fixed up libeay.num for new functions.
7811 [Steve Henson]
7812
7813 *) Make `openssl version' output lines consistent.
7814 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7815
7816 *) Fix Win32 symbol export lists for BIO functions: Added
7817 BIO_get_ex_new_index, BIO_get_ex_num, BIO_get_ex_data and BIO_set_ex_data
7818 to ms/libeay{16,32}.def.
7819 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7820
7821 *) Second round of fixing the OpenSSL perl/ stuff. It now at least compiled
7822 fine under Unix and passes some trivial tests I've now added. But the
7823 whole stuff is horribly incomplete, so a README.1ST with a disclaimer was
7824 added to make sure no one expects that this stuff really works in the
7825 OpenSSL 0.9.2 release. Additionally I've started to clean the XS sources
7826 up and fixed a few little bugs and inconsistencies in OpenSSL.{pm,xs} and
7827 openssl_bio.xs.
7828 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7829
7830 *) Fix the generation of two part addresses in perl.
7831 [Kenji Miyake <kenji@miyake.org>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
7832
7833 *) Add config entry for Linux on MIPS.
7834 [John Tobey <jtobey@channel1.com>]
7835
7836 *) Make links whenever Configure is run, unless we are on Windoze.
7837 [Ben Laurie]
7838
7839 *) Permit extensions to be added to CRLs using crl_section in openssl.cnf.
7840 Currently only issuerAltName and AuthorityKeyIdentifier make any sense
7841 in CRLs.
7842 [Steve Henson]
7843
7844 *) Add a useful kludge to allow package maintainers to specify compiler and
7845 other platforms details on the command line without having to patch the
7846 Configure script everytime: One now can use ``perl Configure
7847 <id>:<details>'', i.e. platform ids are allowed to have details appended
7848 to them (seperated by colons). This is treated as there would be a static
7849 pre-configured entry in Configure's %table under key <id> with value
7850 <details> and ``perl Configure <id>'' is called. So, when you want to
7851 perform a quick test-compile under FreeBSD 3.1 with pgcc and without
7852 assembler stuff you can use ``perl Configure "FreeBSD-elf:pgcc:-O6:::"''
7853 now, which overrides the FreeBSD-elf entry on-the-fly.
7854 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7855
7856 *) Disable new TLS1 ciphersuites by default: they aren't official yet.
7857 [Ben Laurie]
7858
7859 *) Allow DSO flags like -fpic, -fPIC, -KPIC etc. to be specified
7860 on the `perl Configure ...' command line. This way one can compile
7861 OpenSSL libraries with Position Independent Code (PIC) which is needed
7862 for linking it into DSOs.
7863 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7864
7865 *) Remarkably, export ciphers were totally broken and no-one had noticed!
7866 Fixed.
7867 [Ben Laurie]
7868
7869 *) Cleaned up the LICENSE document: The official contact for any license
7870 questions now is the OpenSSL core team under openssl-core@openssl.org.
7871 And add a paragraph about the dual-license situation to make sure people
7872 recognize that _BOTH_ the OpenSSL license _AND_ the SSLeay license apply
7873 to the OpenSSL toolkit.
7874 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7875
7876 *) General source tree makefile cleanups: Made `making xxx in yyy...'
7877 display consistent in the source tree and replaced `/bin/rm' by `rm'.
7878 Additonally cleaned up the `make links' target: Remove unnecessary
7879 semicolons, subsequent redundant removes, inline point.sh into mklink.sh
7880 to speed processing and no longer clutter the display with confusing
7881 stuff. Instead only the actually done links are displayed.
7882 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7883
7884 *) Permit null encryption ciphersuites, used for authentication only. It used
7885 to be necessary to set the preprocessor define SSL_ALLOW_ENULL to do this.
7886 It is now necessary to set SSL_FORBID_ENULL to prevent the use of null
7887 encryption.
7888 [Ben Laurie]
7889
7890 *) Add a bunch of fixes to the PKCS#7 stuff. It used to sometimes reorder
7891 signed attributes when verifying signatures (this would break them),
7892 the detached data encoding was wrong and public keys obtained using
7893 X509_get_pubkey() weren't freed.
7894 [Steve Henson]
7895
7896 *) Add text documentation for the BUFFER functions. Also added a work around
7897 to a Win95 console bug. This was triggered by the password read stuff: the
7898 last character typed gets carried over to the next fread(). If you were
7899 generating a new cert request using 'req' for example then the last
7900 character of the passphrase would be CR which would then enter the first
7901 field as blank.
7902 [Steve Henson]
7903
7904 *) Added the new `Includes OpenSSL Cryptography Software' button as
7905 doc/openssl_button.{gif,html} which is similar in style to the old SSLeay
7906 button and can be used by applications based on OpenSSL to show the
7907 relationship to the OpenSSL project.
7908 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7909
7910 *) Remove confusing variables in function signatures in files
7911 ssl/ssl_lib.c and ssl/ssl.h.
7912 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7913
7914 *) Don't install bss_file.c under PREFIX/include/
7915 [Lennart Bong <lob@kulthea.stacken.kth.se>]
7916
7917 *) Get the Win32 compile working again. Modify mkdef.pl so it can handle
7918 functions that return function pointers and has support for NT specific
7919 stuff. Fix mk1mf.pl and VC-32.pl to support NT differences also. Various
7920 #ifdef WIN32 and WINNTs sprinkled about the place and some changes from
7921 unsigned to signed types: this was killing the Win32 compile.
7922 [Steve Henson]
7923
7924 *) Add new certificate file to stack functions,
7925 SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack() and
7926 SSL_add_file_cert_subjects_to_stack(). These largely supplant
7927 SSL_load_client_CA_file(), and can be used to add multiple certs easily
7928 to a stack (usually this is then handed to SSL_CTX_set_client_CA_list()).
7929 This means that Apache-SSL and similar packages don't have to mess around
7930 to add as many CAs as they want to the preferred list.
7931 [Ben Laurie]
7932
7933 *) Experiment with doxygen documentation. Currently only partially applied to
7934 ssl/ssl_lib.c.
7935 See http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/index.html, and run doxygen with
7936 openssl.doxy as the configuration file.
7937 [Ben Laurie]
7938
7939 *) Get rid of remaining C++-style comments which strict C compilers hate.
7940 [Ralf S. Engelschall, pointed out by Carlos Amengual]
7941
7942 *) Changed BN_RECURSION in bn_mont.c to BN_RECURSION_MONT so it is not
7943 compiled in by default: it has problems with large keys.
7944 [Steve Henson]
7945
7946 *) Add a bunch of SSL_xxx() functions for configuring the temporary RSA and
7947 DH private keys and/or callback functions which directly correspond to
7948 their SSL_CTX_xxx() counterparts but work on a per-connection basis. This
7949 is needed for applications which have to configure certificates on a
7950 per-connection basis (e.g. Apache+mod_ssl) instead of a per-context basis
7951 (e.g. s_server).
7952 For the RSA certificate situation is makes no difference, but
7953 for the DSA certificate situation this fixes the "no shared cipher"
7954 problem where the OpenSSL cipher selection procedure failed because the
7955 temporary keys were not overtaken from the context and the API provided
7956 no way to reconfigure them.
7957 The new functions now let applications reconfigure the stuff and they
7958 are in detail: SSL_need_tmp_RSA, SSL_set_tmp_rsa, SSL_set_tmp_dh,
7959 SSL_set_tmp_rsa_callback and SSL_set_tmp_dh_callback. Additionally a new
7960 non-public-API function ssl_cert_instantiate() is used as a helper
7961 function and also to reduce code redundancy inside ssl_rsa.c.
7962 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7963
7964 *) Move s_server -dcert and -dkey options out of the undocumented feature
7965 area because they are useful for the DSA situation and should be
7966 recognized by the users.
7967 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7968
7969 *) Fix the cipher decision scheme for export ciphers: the export bits are
7970 *not* within SSL_MKEY_MASK or SSL_AUTH_MASK, they are within
7971 SSL_EXP_MASK. So, the original variable has to be used instead of the
7972 already masked variable.
7973 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7974
7975 *) Fix 'port' variable from `int' to `unsigned int' in crypto/bio/b_sock.c
7976 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7977
7978 *) Change type of another md_len variable in pk7_doit.c:PKCS7_dataFinal()
7979 from `int' to `unsigned int' because it's a length and initialized by
7980 EVP_DigestFinal() which expects an `unsigned int *'.
7981 [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
7982
7983 *) Don't hard-code path to Perl interpreter on shebang line of Configure
7984 script. Instead use the usual Shell->Perl transition trick.
7985 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7986
7987 *) Make `openssl x509 -noout -modulus' functional also for DSA certificates
7988 (in addition to RSA certificates) to match the behaviour of `openssl dsa
7989 -noout -modulus' as it's already the case for `openssl rsa -noout
7990 -modulus'. For RSA the -modulus is the real "modulus" while for DSA
7991 currently the public key is printed (a decision which was already done by
7992 `openssl dsa -modulus' in the past) which serves a similar purpose.
7993 Additionally the NO_RSA no longer completely removes the whole -modulus
7994 option; it now only avoids using the RSA stuff. Same applies to NO_DSA
7995 now, too.
7996 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
7997
7998 *) Add Arne Ansper's reliable BIO - this is an encrypted, block-digested
7999 BIO. See the source (crypto/evp/bio_ok.c) for more info.
8000 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8001
8002 *) Dump the old yucky req code that tried (and failed) to allow raw OIDs
8003 to be added. Now both 'req' and 'ca' can use new objects defined in the
8004 config file.
8005 [Steve Henson]
8006
8007 *) Add cool BIO that does syslog (or event log on NT).
8008 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>, integrated by Ben Laurie]
8009
8010 *) Add support for new TLS ciphersuites, TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC4_56_MD5,
8011 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_RC2_CBC_56_MD5 and
8012 TLS_RSA_EXPORT56_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA, as specified in "56-bit Export Cipher
8013 Suites For TLS", draft-ietf-tls-56-bit-ciphersuites-00.txt.
8014 [Ben Laurie]
8015
8016 *) Add preliminary config info for new extension code.
8017 [Steve Henson]
8018
8019 *) Make RSA_NO_PADDING really use no padding.
8020 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8021
8022 *) Generate errors when private/public key check is done.
8023 [Ben Laurie]
8024
8025 *) Overhaul for 'crl' utility. New function X509_CRL_print. Partial support
8026 for some CRL extensions and new objects added.
8027 [Steve Henson]
8028
8029 *) Really fix the ASN1 IMPLICIT bug this time... Partial support for private
8030 key usage extension and fuller support for authority key id.
8031 [Steve Henson]
8032
8033 *) Add OAEP encryption for the OpenSSL crypto library. OAEP is the improved
8034 padding method for RSA, which is recommended for new applications in PKCS
8035 #1 v2.0 (RFC 2437, October 1998).
8036 OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) has better theoretical
8037 foundations than the ad-hoc padding used in PKCS #1 v1.5. It is secure
8038 against Bleichbacher's attack on RSA.
8039 [Ulf Moeller <ulf@fitug.de>, reformatted, corrected and integrated by
8040 Ben Laurie]
8041
8042 *) Updates to the new SSL compression code
8043 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8044
8045 *) Fix so that the version number in the master secret, when passed
8046 via RSA, checks that if TLS was proposed, but we roll back to SSLv3
8047 (because the server will not accept higher), that the version number
8048 is 0x03,0x01, not 0x03,0x00
8049 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8050
8051 *) Run extensive memory leak checks on SSL apps. Fixed *lots* of memory
8052 leaks in ssl/ relating to new X509_get_pubkey() behaviour. Also fixes
8053 in apps/ and an unrelated leak in crypto/dsa/dsa_vrf.c
8054 [Steve Henson]
8055
8056 *) Support for RAW extensions where an arbitrary extension can be
8057 created by including its DER encoding. See apps/openssl.cnf for
8058 an example.
8059 [Steve Henson]
8060
8061 *) Make sure latest Perl versions don't interpret some generated C array
8062 code as Perl array code in the crypto/err/err_genc.pl script.
8063 [Lars Weber <3weber@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8064
8065 *) Modify ms/do_ms.bat to not generate assembly language makefiles since
8066 not many people have the assembler. Various Win32 compilation fixes and
8067 update to the INSTALL.W32 file with (hopefully) more accurate Win32
8068 build instructions.
8069 [Steve Henson]
8070
8071 *) Modify configure script 'Configure' to automatically create crypto/date.h
8072 file under Win32 and also build pem.h from pem.org. New script
8073 util/mkfiles.pl to create the MINFO file on environments that can't do a
8074 'make files': perl util/mkfiles.pl >MINFO should work.
8075 [Steve Henson]
8076
8077 *) Major rework of DES function declarations, in the pursuit of correctness
8078 and purity. As a result, many evil casts evaporated, and some weirdness,
8079 too. You may find this causes warnings in your code. Zapping your evil
8080 casts will probably fix them. Mostly.
8081 [Ben Laurie]
8082
8083 *) Fix for a typo in asn1.h. Bug fix to object creation script
8084 obj_dat.pl. It considered a zero in an object definition to mean
8085 "end of object": none of the objects in objects.h have any zeros
8086 so it wasn't spotted.
8087 [Steve Henson, reported by Erwann ABALEA <eabalea@certplus.com>]
8088
8089 *) Add support for Triple DES Cipher Block Chaining with Output Feedback
8090 Masking (CBCM). In the absence of test vectors, the best I have been able
8091 to do is check that the decrypt undoes the encrypt, so far. Send me test
8092 vectors if you have them.
8093 [Ben Laurie]
8094
8095 *) Correct calculation of key length for export ciphers (too much space was
8096 allocated for null ciphers). This has not been tested!
8097 [Ben Laurie]
8098
8099 *) Modifications to the mkdef.pl for Win32 DEF file creation. The usage
8100 message is now correct (it understands "crypto" and "ssl" on its
8101 command line). There is also now an "update" option. This will update
8102 the util/ssleay.num and util/libeay.num files with any new functions.
8103 If you do a:
8104 perl util/mkdef.pl crypto ssl update
8105 it will update them.
8106 [Steve Henson]
8107
8108 *) Overhauled the Perl interface (perl/*):
8109 - ported BN stuff to OpenSSL's different BN library
8110 - made the perl/ source tree CVS-aware
8111 - renamed the package from SSLeay to OpenSSL (the files still contain
8112 their history because I've copied them in the repository)
8113 - removed obsolete files (the test scripts will be replaced
8114 by better Test::Harness variants in the future)
8115 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8116
8117 *) First cut for a very conservative source tree cleanup:
8118 1. merge various obsolete readme texts into doc/ssleay.txt
8119 where we collect the old documents and readme texts.
8120 2. remove the first part of files where I'm already sure that we no
8121 longer need them because of three reasons: either they are just temporary
8122 files which were left by Eric or they are preserved original files where
8123 I've verified that the diff is also available in the CVS via "cvs diff
8124 -rSSLeay_0_8_1b" or they were renamed (as it was definitely the case for
8125 the crypto/md/ stuff).
8126 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8127
8128 *) More extension code. Incomplete support for subject and issuer alt
8129 name, issuer and authority key id. Change the i2v function parameters
8130 and add an extra 'crl' parameter in the X509V3_CTX structure: guess
8131 what that's for :-) Fix to ASN1 macro which messed up
8132 IMPLICIT tag and add f_enum.c which adds a2i, i2a for ENUMERATED.
8133 [Steve Henson]
8134
8135 *) Preliminary support for ENUMERATED type. This is largely copied from the
8136 INTEGER code.
8137 [Steve Henson]
8138
8139 *) Add new function, EVP_MD_CTX_copy() to replace frequent use of memcpy.
8140 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8141
8142 *) Make sure `make rehash' target really finds the `openssl' program.
8143 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]
8144
8145 *) Squeeze another 7% of speed out of MD5 assembler, at least on a P2. I'd
8146 like to hear about it if this slows down other processors.
8147 [Ben Laurie]
8148
8149 *) Add CygWin32 platform information to Configure script.
8150 [Alan Batie <batie@aahz.jf.intel.com>]
8151
8152 *) Fixed ms/32all.bat script: `no_asm' -> `no-asm'
8153 [Rainer W. Gerling <gerling@mpg-gv.mpg.de>]
8154
8155 *) New program nseq to manipulate netscape certificate sequences
8156 [Steve Henson]
8157
8158 *) Modify crl2pkcs7 so it supports multiple -certfile arguments. Fix a
8159 few typos.
8160 [Steve Henson]
8161
8162 *) Fixes to BN code. Previously the default was to define BN_RECURSION
8163 but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
8164 doing certificate verification and some other functions.
8165 [Eric A. Young, (from changes to C2Net SSLeay, integrated by Mark Cox)]
8166
8167 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8168 [Steve Henson]
8169
8170 *) Add ASN1 and PEM code to support netscape certificate sequences.
8171 [Steve Henson]
8172
8173 *) Add several PKIX and private extended key usage OIDs.
8174 [Steve Henson]
8175
8176 *) Modify the 'ca' program to handle the new extension code. Modify
8177 openssl.cnf for new extension format, add comments.
8178 [Steve Henson]
8179
8180 *) More X509 V3 changes. Fix typo in v3_bitstr.c. Add support to 'req'
8181 and add a sample to openssl.cnf so req -x509 now adds appropriate
8182 CA extensions.
8183 [Steve Henson]
8184
8185 *) Continued X509 V3 changes. Add to other makefiles, integrate with the
8186 error code, add initial support to X509_print() and x509 application.
8187 [Steve Henson]
8188
8189 *) Takes a deep breath and start addding X509 V3 extension support code. Add
8190 files in crypto/x509v3. Move original stuff to crypto/x509v3/old. All this
8191 stuff is currently isolated and isn't even compiled yet.
8192 [Steve Henson]
8193
8194 *) Continuing patches for GeneralizedTime. Fix up certificate and CRL
8195 ASN1 to use ASN1_TIME and modify print routines to use ASN1_TIME_print.
8196 Removed the versions check from X509 routines when loading extensions:
8197 this allows certain broken certificates that don't set the version
8198 properly to be processed.
8199 [Steve Henson]
8200
8201 *) Deal with irritating shit to do with dependencies, in YAAHW (Yet Another
8202 Ad Hoc Way) - Makefile.ssls now all contain local dependencies, which
8203 can still be regenerated with "make depend".
8204 [Ben Laurie]
8205
8206 *) Spelling mistake in C version of CAST-128.
8207 [Ben Laurie, reported by Jeremy Hylton <jeremy@cnri.reston.va.us>]
8208
8209 *) Changes to the error generation code. The perl script err-code.pl
8210 now reads in the old error codes and retains the old numbers, only
8211 adding new ones if necessary. It also only changes the .err files if new
8212 codes are added. The makefiles have been modified to only insert errors
8213 when needed (to avoid needlessly modifying header files). This is done
8214 by only inserting errors if the .err file is newer than the auto generated
8215 C file. To rebuild all the error codes from scratch (the old behaviour)
8216 either modify crypto/Makefile.ssl to pass the -regen flag to err_code.pl
8217 or delete all the .err files.
8218 [Steve Henson]
8219
8220 *) CAST-128 was incorrectly implemented for short keys. The C version has
8221 been fixed, but is untested. The assembler versions are also fixed, but
8222 new assembler HAS NOT BEEN GENERATED FOR WIN32 - the Makefile needs fixing
8223 to regenerate it if needed.
8224 [Ben Laurie, reported (with fix for C version) by Jun-ichiro itojun
8225 Hagino <itojun@kame.net>]
8226
8227 *) File was opened incorrectly in randfile.c.
8228 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8229
8230 *) Beginning of support for GeneralizedTime. d2i, i2d, check and print
8231 functions. Also ASN1_TIME suite which is a CHOICE of UTCTime or
8232 GeneralizedTime. ASN1_TIME is the proper type used in certificates et
8233 al: it's just almost always a UTCTime. Note this patch adds new error
8234 codes so do a "make errors" if there are problems.
8235 [Steve Henson]
8236
8237 *) Correct Linux 1 recognition in config.
8238 [Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8239
8240 *) Remove pointless MD5 hash when using DSA keys in ca.
8241 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8242
8243 *) Generate an error if given an empty string as a cert directory. Also
8244 generate an error if handed NULL (previously returned 0 to indicate an
8245 error, but didn't set one).
8246 [Ben Laurie, reported by Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8247
8248 *) Add prototypes to SSL methods. Make SSL_write's buffer const, at last.
8249 [Ben Laurie]
8250
8251 *) Fix the dummy function BN_ref_mod_exp() in rsaref.c to have the correct
8252 parameters. This was causing a warning which killed off the Win32 compile.
8253 [Steve Henson]
8254
8255 *) Remove C++ style comments from crypto/bn/bn_local.h.
8256 [Neil Costigan <neil.costigan@celocom.com>]
8257
8258 *) The function OBJ_txt2nid was broken. It was supposed to return a nid
8259 based on a text string, looking up short and long names and finally
8260 "dot" format. The "dot" format stuff didn't work. Added new function
8261 OBJ_txt2obj to do the same but return an ASN1_OBJECT and rewrote
8262 OBJ_txt2nid to use it. OBJ_txt2obj can also return objects even if the
8263 OID is not part of the table.
8264 [Steve Henson]
8265
8266 *) Add prototypes to X509 lookup/verify methods, fixing a bug in
8267 X509_LOOKUP_by_alias().
8268 [Ben Laurie]
8269
8270 *) Sort openssl functions by name.
8271 [Ben Laurie]
8272
8273 *) Get the gendsa program working (hopefully) and add it to app list. Remove
8274 encryption from sample DSA keys (in case anyone is interested the password
8275 was "1234").
8276 [Steve Henson]
8277
8278 *) Make _all_ *_free functions accept a NULL pointer.
8279 [Frans Heymans <fheymans@isaserver.be>]
8280
8281 *) If a DH key is generated in s3_srvr.c, don't blow it by trying to use
8282 NULL pointers.
8283 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8284
8285 *) s_server should send the CAfile as acceptable CAs, not its own cert.
8286 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8287
8288 *) Don't blow it for numeric -newkey arguments to apps/req.
8289 [Bodo Moeller <3moeller@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]
8290
8291 *) Temp key "for export" tests were wrong in s3_srvr.c.
8292 [Anonymous <nobody@replay.com>]
8293
8294 *) Add prototype for temp key callback functions
8295 SSL_CTX_set_tmp_{rsa,dh}_callback().
8296 [Ben Laurie]
8297
8298 *) Make DH_free() tolerate being passed a NULL pointer (like RSA_free() and
8299 DSA_free()). Make X509_PUBKEY_set() check for errors in d2i_PublicKey().
8300 [Steve Henson]
8301
8302 *) X509_name_add_entry() freed the wrong thing after an error.
8303 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8304
8305 *) rsa_eay.c would attempt to free a NULL context.
8306 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8307
8308 *) BIO_s_socket() had a broken should_retry() on Windoze.
8309 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8310
8311 *) BIO_f_buffer() didn't pass on BIO_CTRL_FLUSH.
8312 [Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
8313
8314 *) Make sure the already existing X509_STORE->depth variable is initialized
8315 in X509_STORE_new(), but document the fact that this variable is still
8316 unused in the certificate verification process.
8317 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8318
8319 *) Fix the various library and apps files to free up pkeys obtained from
8320 X509_PUBKEY_get() et al. Also allow x509.c to handle netscape extensions.
8321 [Steve Henson]
8322
8323 *) Fix reference counting in X509_PUBKEY_get(). This makes
8324 demos/maurice/example2.c work, amongst others, probably.
8325 [Steve Henson and Ben Laurie]
8326
8327 *) First cut of a cleanup for apps/. First the `ssleay' program is now named
8328 `openssl' and second, the shortcut symlinks for the `openssl <command>'
8329 are no longer created. This way we have a single and consistent command
8330 line interface `openssl <command>', similar to `cvs <command>'.
8331 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Paul Sutton and Ben Laurie]
8332
8333 *) ca.c: move test for DSA keys inside #ifndef NO_DSA. Make pubkey
8334 BIT STRING wrapper always have zero unused bits.
8335 [Steve Henson]
8336
8337 *) Add CA.pl, perl version of CA.sh, add extended key usage OID.
8338 [Steve Henson]
8339
8340 *) Make the top-level INSTALL documentation easier to understand.
8341 [Paul Sutton]
8342
8343 *) Makefiles updated to exit if an error occurs in a sub-directory
8344 make (including if user presses ^C) [Paul Sutton]
8345
8346 *) Make Montgomery context stuff explicit in RSA data structure.
8347 [Ben Laurie]
8348
8349 *) Fix build order of pem and err to allow for generated pem.h.
8350 [Ben Laurie]
8351
8352 *) Fix renumbering bug in X509_NAME_delete_entry().
8353 [Ben Laurie]
8354
8355 *) Enhanced the err-ins.pl script so it makes the error library number
8356 global and can add a library name. This is needed for external ASN1 and
8357 other error libraries.
8358 [Steve Henson]
8359
8360 *) Fixed sk_insert which never worked properly.
8361 [Steve Henson]
8362
8363 *) Fix ASN1 macros so they can handle indefinite length construted
8364 EXPLICIT tags. Some non standard certificates use these: they can now
8365 be read in.
8366 [Steve Henson]
8367
8368 *) Merged the various old/obsolete SSLeay documentation files (doc/xxx.doc)
8369 into a single doc/ssleay.txt bundle. This way the information is still
8370 preserved but no longer messes up this directory. Now it's new room for
8371 the new set of documenation files.
8372 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8373
8374 *) SETs were incorrectly DER encoded. This was a major pain, because they
8375 shared code with SEQUENCEs, which aren't coded the same. This means that
8376 almost everything to do with SETs or SEQUENCEs has either changed name or
8377 number of arguments.
8378 [Ben Laurie, based on a partial fix by GP Jayan <gp@nsj.co.jp>]
8379
8380 *) Fix test data to work with the above.
8381 [Ben Laurie]
8382
8383 *) Fix the RSA header declarations that hid a bug I fixed in 0.9.0b but
8384 was already fixed by Eric for 0.9.1 it seems.
8385 [Ben Laurie - pointed out by Ulf Möller <ulf@fitug.de>]
8386
8387 *) Autodetect FreeBSD3.
8388 [Ben Laurie]
8389
8390 *) Fix various bugs in Configure. This affects the following platforms:
8391 nextstep
8392 ncr-scde
8393 unixware-2.0
8394 unixware-2.0-pentium
8395 sco5-cc.
8396 [Ben Laurie]
8397
8398 *) Eliminate generated files from CVS. Reorder tests to regenerate files
8399 before they are needed.
8400 [Ben Laurie]
8401
8402 *) Generate Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org (to keep CVS happy).
8403 [Ben Laurie]
8404
8405
8406 Changes between 0.9.1b and 0.9.1c [23-Dec-1998]
8407
8408 *) Added OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to crypto/crypto.h and
8409 changed SSLeay to OpenSSL in version strings.
8410 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8411
8412 *) Some fixups to the top-level documents.
8413 [Paul Sutton]
8414
8415 *) Fixed the nasty bug where rsaref.h was not found under compile-time
8416 because the symlink to include/ was missing.
8417 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8418
8419 *) Incorporated the popular no-RSA/DSA-only patches
8420 which allow to compile a RSA-free SSLeay.
8421 [Andrew Cooke / Interrader Ldt., Ralf S. Engelschall]
8422
8423 *) Fixed nasty rehash problem under `make -f Makefile.ssl links'
8424 when "ssleay" is still not found.
8425 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8426
8427 *) Added more platforms to Configure: Cray T3E, HPUX 11,
8428 [Ralf S. Engelschall, Beckmann <beckman@acl.lanl.gov>]
8429
8430 *) Updated the README file.
8431 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8432
8433 *) Added various .cvsignore files in the CVS repository subdirs
8434 to make a "cvs update" really silent.
8435 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8436
8437 *) Recompiled the error-definition header files and added
8438 missing symbols to the Win32 linker tables.
8439 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8440
8441 *) Cleaned up the top-level documents;
8442 o new files: CHANGES and LICENSE
8443 o merged VERSION, HISTORY* and README* files a CHANGES.SSLeay
8444 o merged COPYRIGHT into LICENSE
8445 o removed obsolete TODO file
8446 o renamed MICROSOFT to INSTALL.W32
8447 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8448
8449 *) Removed dummy files from the 0.9.1b source tree:
8450 crypto/asn1/x crypto/bio/cd crypto/bio/fg crypto/bio/grep crypto/bio/vi
8451 crypto/bn/asm/......add.c crypto/bn/asm/a.out crypto/dsa/f crypto/md5/f
8452 crypto/pem/gmon.out crypto/perlasm/f crypto/pkcs7/build crypto/rsa/f
8453 crypto/sha/asm/f crypto/threads/f ms/zzz ssl/f ssl/f.mak test/f
8454 util/f.mak util/pl/f util/pl/f.mak crypto/bf/bf_locl.old apps/f
8455 [Ralf S. Engelschall]
8456
8457 *) Added various platform portability fixes.
8458 [Mark J. Cox]
8459
8460 *) The Genesis of the OpenSSL rpject:
8461 We start with the latest (unreleased) SSLeay version 0.9.1b which Eric A.
8462 Young and Tim J. Hudson created while they were working for C2Net until
8463 summer 1998.
8464 [The OpenSSL Project]
8465
8466
8467 Changes between 0.9.0b and 0.9.1b [not released]
8468
8469 *) Updated a few CA certificates under certs/
8470 [Eric A. Young]
8471
8472 *) Changed some BIGNUM api stuff.
8473 [Eric A. Young]
8474
8475 *) Various platform ports: OpenBSD, Ultrix, IRIX 64bit, NetBSD,
8476 DGUX x86, Linux Alpha, etc.
8477 [Eric A. Young]
8478
8479 *) New COMP library [crypto/comp/] for SSL Record Layer Compression:
8480 RLE (dummy implemented) and ZLIB (really implemented when ZLIB is
8481 available).
8482 [Eric A. Young]
8483
8484 *) Add -strparse option to asn1pars program which parses nested
8485 binary structures
8486 [Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>]
8487
8488 *) Added "oid_file" to ssleay.cnf for "ca" and "req" programs.
8489 [Eric A. Young]
8490
8491 *) DSA fix for "ca" program.
8492 [Eric A. Young]
8493
8494 *) Added "-genkey" option to "dsaparam" program.
8495 [Eric A. Young]
8496
8497 *) Added RIPE MD160 (rmd160) message digest.
8498 [Eric A. Young]
8499
8500 *) Added -a (all) option to "ssleay version" command.
8501 [Eric A. Young]
8502
8503 *) Added PLATFORM define which is the id given to Configure.
8504 [Eric A. Young]
8505
8506 *) Added MemCheck_XXXX functions to crypto/mem.c for memory checking.
8507 [Eric A. Young]
8508
8509 *) Extended the ASN.1 parser routines.
8510 [Eric A. Young]
8511
8512 *) Extended BIO routines to support REUSEADDR, seek, tell, etc.
8513 [Eric A. Young]
8514
8515 *) Added a BN_CTX to the BN library.
8516 [Eric A. Young]
8517
8518 *) Fixed the weak key values in DES library
8519 [Eric A. Young]
8520
8521 *) Changed API in EVP library for cipher aliases.
8522 [Eric A. Young]
8523
8524 *) Added support for RC2/64bit cipher.
8525 [Eric A. Young]
8526
8527 *) Converted the lhash library to the crypto/mem.c functions.
8528 [Eric A. Young]
8529
8530 *) Added more recognized ASN.1 object ids.
8531 [Eric A. Young]
8532
8533 *) Added more RSA padding checks for SSL/TLS.
8534 [Eric A. Young]
8535
8536 *) Added BIO proxy/filter functionality.
8537 [Eric A. Young]
8538
8539 *) Added extra_certs to SSL_CTX which can be used
8540 send extra CA certificates to the client in the CA cert chain sending
8541 process. It can be configured with SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().
8542 [Eric A. Young]
8543
8544 *) Now Fortezza is denied in the authentication phase because
8545 this is key exchange mechanism is not supported by SSLeay at all.
8546 [Eric A. Young]
8547
8548 *) Additional PKCS1 checks.
8549 [Eric A. Young]
8550
8551 *) Support the string "TLSv1" for all TLS v1 ciphers.
8552 [Eric A. Young]
8553
8554 *) Added function SSL_get_ex_data_X509_STORE_CTX_idx() which gives the
8555 ex_data index of the SSL context in the X509_STORE_CTX ex_data.
8556 [Eric A. Young]
8557
8558 *) Fixed a few memory leaks.
8559 [Eric A. Young]
8560
8561 *) Fixed various code and comment typos.
8562 [Eric A. Young]
8563
8564 *) A minor bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c where there would always be 4 0
8565 bytes sent in the client random.
8566 [Edward Bishop <ebishop@spyglass.com>]
8567
